Isaiah 53:2-3

He Was Wounded for Our Transgressions

_i and like a root out of dry ground;
_j he had no form or majesty that we should look at him,
and no beauty that we should desire him.
³ _k He was despised and rejected ₁ by men;
a man of sorrows, ₂ and acquainted with ₃ grief; ₄
and as one from whom men hide their faces ₅
he was despised, and _l we esteemed him not.
