The Cross

“He is despised and rejected by men, A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him; He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.

“Surely He has borne our griefs And carried our sorrows;
Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted.”

But He was wounded[h] for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed.”

“Allwe like sheep have gone astray; We have turned, every one, to his own way;”


“And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.
“-Isaiah 53:3-6
