ÒHe was oppressed and
afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; he was led
like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep
before her shearers is silent, so he did not open
his mouth. By oppression and judgment he
was taken away. And who can speak of his
descendants? For he was cut off from the land
of the living; for the transgression of my people
he was stricken.Ó – Isaiah 53:7-8
