John Trapp on Isaiah 42:3

Ver. 3. A bruiſed reed ſhall he not break] i. e. A contrite heart Pſal. 51.17. in whom there ſhall appear to be any thing of Chriſt, Mar. 9. though never ſo little: that are faithful in weakneſs,Cruclger. though but weak in Faith, as He was who cried out Lord I believe, help mine unbelief: and Another, Invoco te fide quamvis languidâ, fide tamen. See on Matth. 12.20.

He ſhall bring forth judgement unto truth] Unto victory ſaith the Evangeliſt, after the Septuagint. Truth will prevail, ſincerity proceed to perfection. The righteous alſo ſhall hold on his way: and he that hath clean hands ſhall be ſtronger and ſtronger, Job 17.9. Where there is truth of grace, there will be victory. Bernard never went from God without God. And holy Bradford would never give over any good duty, till he found ſomething coming in: as in confeſſion, till his heart melted: in begging pardon, till it was quieted: in ſeeking grace, till it was quickened, &c.
