Isaiah 50:6-8
International Standard Version
6 I gave my back to those who beat me
and my cheeks to those who pulled out my beard.[a]
I did not turn away[b] my face
from insults and spitting.
7 For the Lord God helps me,
so I won’t be disgraced.
Therefore I’ve made my face like flint,
and I know that I won’t be put to shame.”
The Servant’s Vindication
8 The one who vindicates me is near.
Who, then, will bring a charge against me?
Let’s face each other!
Who has a case against me?
Let him confront me!
