1 Peter 2:23-25
International Standard Version
23 When he was insulted,
he did not retaliate.
When he suffered,
he did not threaten.
It was his habit
to commit the matter to the one who judges fairly.
24 “He himself bore our sins”[a] in his body on the tree,
so that we might die to those sins
and live righteously.
“By his wounds
you have been healed.”[b]
25 You were “like sheep that kept going astray,”[c]
but now you have returned to the shepherd
and overseer of your souls.

1 Peter 2:23-25
King James Version
23 Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:
24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
