Isaiah 50:5-7

Expanded Bible

⁵ The Lord God ·helps me learn [or speaks clearly to me; ^Lhas opened my ear],
    and I have not ·turned against him [rebelled]
    nor ·stopped following him [turned away/back].
⁶ I offered my back to those who beat me.
    I offered my cheeks to those who ·pulled [ripped out] my beard.
I ·won’t [or did not] hide my face from them
    when they ·make fun of [mocked; insulted; shamed] me and spit at me [53:5; Matt. 26:67; 27:26; Mark 15:19; Luke 22:63].
⁷ The Lord God helps me,
    so I will not be ·ashamed [disgraced].
I ·will be determined [^Lhave set my face like flint; Ezek. 3:8–9],
    and I know I will not be ·disgraced [put to shame].
