Isaiah 50:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 The Lord God hath given [a]me a tongue of the learned, that I should know to minister a word in time to him that is [b]weary; he will raise me up in the morning, in the morning he will waken mine ear to hear, [c]as the learned.
5 The Lord God hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned I back.
6 I gave my back unto the [d]smiters, and my cheeks to the nippers: I hid not my face from shame and spitting.
