"He shall be lifted up, exaulted, rise to great heights.
The crowds were appalled on seeing Him
so disfigured did He look
He seemed nolonger human...
Like a sapling He grew up in front of us,
like a root in arid ground...
Without beauty, without majesty(we saw Him)
no looks to attract our eyes;
a thing dispised and rejected by men
a man of sorrows and familiar with suffering,
a man to make people screen their faces,
He was despised and we took no account of Him.
Yet ours were the sufferings He bore our sorrows He carried.
But we, we thought of Him as someone punished, struck by God
and brought low.......
Yet He was pierced through for our faults, crushed for our sins...
On Him lies a punishment that brings us peace, and through His
wounds we are healed".
(Isaiah 53)
