Isaiah 50:5-7
New American Bible (Revised Edition)

5 The Lord God opened my ear;
    I did not refuse,
    did not turn away.[a]
6 I gave my back to those who beat me,
    my cheeks to those who tore out my beard;[b]
My face I did not hide
    from insults and spitting.(A)

7 The Lord God is my help,
    therefore I am not disgraced;
Therefore I have set my face like flint,
    knowing that I shall not be put to shame.(B)
