Have mercy on us, O Jehovah, have mercy on us; for we are exceedingly filled with scorn.
Reproach has broken my heart, and I am full of heaviness; and I looked for some to mourn with me, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.
For the zeal of Your house has eaten Me up; and the reproaches of those who reproached You have fallen on Me.
I gave My back to the strikers, and My cheeks to pluckers; I did not hide My face from shame and spitting.

Then they spat in His face and beat Him with the fist. And others struck Him with the palms of their hands,
But I say to you, Do not resist evil. But whoever shall strike you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also.
And to him who strikes you on the one cheek, also offer the other. And to him who takes away your garment, do not forbid your tunic also.
For you endure if anyone enslaves you, if anyone devours, if anyone takes from you, if anyone exalts himself, if anyone strikes you in the face.
