Who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?

Truly, he has taken away our weaknesses, and he himself has carried our sorrows. And we thought of him as if he were a leper, or as if he had been struck by God and humiliated.

We have all gone astray like sheep; each one has turned aside to his own way. And the Lord has placed all our iniquity upon him.
