Matthew 12:16-22 New Century Version (NCV)

16. But Jesus warned the people not to tell who he was.

17. He did these things to bring about what Isaiah the prophet had said:

18. “Here is my servant whom I have chosen.I love him, and I am pleased with him.I will put my Spirit upon him,and he will tell of my justice to all people.

19. He will not argue or cry out;no one will hear his voice in the streets.

20. He will not break a crushed blade of grassor put out even a weak flameuntil he makes justice win the victory.

21. In him will the non-Jewish people find hope.”

22. Then some people brought to Jesus a man who was blind and could not talk, because he had a demon. Jesus healed the man so that he could talk and see.
