Isaiah 53:2-3

like a root in dry ground.
There was nothing beautiful or majestic about his appearance,
nothing to attract us to him.

a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief.
We turned our backs on him and looked the other way.
He was despised, and we did not care.

Bow before him, all who are mortal,
all whose lives will end as dust.

Future generations will hear about the wonders of the Lord.

They will hear about everything he has done.
