A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth.

Das zerstoßene Rohr wird er nicht zerbrechen, und den glimmenden Docht wird er nicht auslöschen. Er wird das Recht wahrhaftig halten lehren.
No quebrará la caña cascada, ni apagará el pábilo que humeare: sacará el juicio a verdad.
No quebrará la caña cascada ni apagará la mecha que apenas arde; con fidelidad traerá justicia.
Il ne brisera point le roseau cassé, Et il n'éteindra point la mèche qui brûle encore; Il annoncera la justice selon la vérité.
Egli non triterà la canna rotta, e non ispegnerà il lucignolo fumante; egli proferirà giudicio secondo verità.
A cana trilhada não quebrará, nem apagará o pavio que fumega; com verdade trará justiça.
壓傷的蘆葦,他不折斷; 將殘的燈火,他不吹滅。 他憑信實將公理傳開。
