SCRIPTURE

"He will not cry, nor lift up his voice, nor cause it to be heard in the street." — Isaiah 42:2 (ASV)

He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.

He shall be no clamorous seeker of applause. He shall not shout as those who seek mastery. Now the Savior was quiet, gentle, meek, and humble. When he lifted up his voice, it was for God and for the sons of men—not for himself. He was meek and lowly of heart.
