Isaiah 53:7
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,
yet he did not open his mouth;
like a lamb that is led to the slaughter
and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent,
so he did not open his mouth.(A)

and like a lamb silent before its shearer,
so he does not open his mouth.(A)

Who can describe his generation?
For his life is taken away from the earth.”
