Isaiah 42:3

קָנֶ֤ה רָצוּץ֙ לֹ֣א יִשְׁבּ֔וֹר וּפִשְׁתָּ֥ה כֵהָ֖ה לֹ֣א יְכַבֶּ֑נָּה לֶאֱמֶ֖ת יוֹצִ֥יא מִשְׁפָּֽט׃
qaneh raṣvṣ loʾ yishbvor vpishtah kehah loʾ ykabenah leʾemet yvoṣiyʾ mishpaṭ
King James Version (KJV)

A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth. {smoking: or, dimly burning} {quench: Heb. quench it}

Modern English

He won’t break a bruised reed. He won’t quench a dimly burning wick. He will faithfully bring justice.
