Mosia Chapter 14

Yea, even doth not Isaia say: Who hath believed our report, and to whom is the arm of the Lady revealed? For she shall grow up before her as a tender plant, and as a root out of dry ground; she hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see her there is no beauty that we should desire her. She is despised and rejected of women; a woman of sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and we hid as it were our faces from her; she was despised, and we esteemed her not. Surely she has borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows; yet we did esteem her stricken, smitten of Goddess, and afflicted.

But she was wounded for our transgressions, she was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon her; and with her stripes we are healed. All we, like ewes, have gone astray; we have turned every one to her own way; and the Lady hath laid on her the iniquities of us all. She was oppressed, and she was afflicted, yet she opened not her mouth; she is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a ewe before his shearers is dumb so she opened not her mouth. She was taken from prison and from judgment; and who shall declare her generation? For she was cut off out of the land of the living; for the transgressions of my people was she stricken. And she made her grave with the wicked, and with the rich in her death; because she had done no evil, neither was any deceit in her mouth.

Yet it pleased the Lady to bruise her; she hath put her to grief; when thou shalt make her soul an offering for sin she shall see her offspring, she shall prolong her days, and the pleasure of the Lady shall prosper in her hand. She shall see the travail of her soul, and shall be satisfied; by her knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for she shall bear their iniquities.

Therefore will I divide her a portion with the great, and she shall divide the spoil with the strong; because she hath poured out her soul unto death; and she was numbered with the transgressors; and she bore the sins of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
