But Jesus, aware of this, withdrew from there. Many followed Him, and He healed them all,

But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;

and warned them not to tell who He was.

And charged them that they should not make him known:

This happened so that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet would be fulfilled:

That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,

"BEHOLD, MY SERVANT WHOM I HAVE CHOSEN; MY BELOVED IN WHOM MY SOUL DELIGHTS; I WILL PUT MY SPIRIT UPON HIM, AND HE WILL PROCLAIM JUSTICE TO THE GENTILES.

Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment to the Gentiles.

"HE WILL NOT QUARREL, NOR CRY OUT; NOR WILL ANYONE HEAR HIS VOICE IN THE STREETS.

He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.

"A BENT REED HE WILL NOT BREAK OFF, AND A DIMLY BURNING WICK HE WILL NOT EXTINGUISH, UNTIL HE LEADS JUSTICE TO VICTORY.

A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.

"AND IN HIS NAME THE GENTILES WILL HOPE."

And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
