15. Jesus knew what they intended to do, so he went away from there. Large crowds followed him, and he healed them all.
16. But he ordered them not to spread the word about him,
17. so that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled:
18. Look, my Servant whom I chose, the one I love, in whom I find great pleasure. I’ll put my Spirit upon him, and he’ll announce judgment to the Gentiles.
19. He won’t argue or shout, and nobody will hear his voice in the streets.
20. He won’t break a bent stalk, and he won’t snuff out a smoldering wick, until he makes justice win.
21. And the Gentiles will put their hope in his name.
22. They brought to Jesus a demon-possessed man who was blind and unable to speak. Jesus healed him so that he could both speak and see.
