Bible text(s)

₁The people reply,

“Who would have believed what we now report?

Who could have seen the LORD's hand in this?

₂It was the will of the LORD that his servant

should grow like a plant taking root in dry ground.

He had no dignity or beauty

to make us take notice of him.

There was nothing attractive about him,

nothing that would draw us to him.

₃We despised him and rejected him;

he endured suffering and pain.

No one would even look at him —

we ignored him as if he were nothing.
