A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.
KJV
Greek original
κάλαμον συντετριμμένον οὐ κατεάξει καὶ λίνον τυφόμενον οὐ σβέσει ἕως ἂν ἐκβάλῃ εἰς νῖκος τὴν κρίσιν
Louis Segond 1910
Il ne brisera point le roseau cassé, Et il n'éteindra point le lumignon qui fume, Jusqu'à ce qu'il ait fait triompher la justice.
KJV
A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.
