53:7 He was treated harshly and afflicted, 1
but he did not even open his mouth.
Like a lamb led to the slaughtering block,
like a sheep silent before her shearers,
he did not even open his mouth. 2
11:19 Before this I had been like a docile lamb ready to be led to the slaughter.
I did not know they were making plans to kill me. 3
I did not know they were saying, 4
“Let’s destroy the tree along with its fruit! 5
Let’s remove Jeremiah 6 from the world of the living
so people will not even be reminded of him any more.” 7
12:3 But you, Lord, know all about me.
You watch me and test my devotion to you. 8
Drag these wicked men away like sheep to be slaughtered!
Appoint a time when they will be killed! 9
51:40 “I will lead them off to be slaughtered
like lambs, rams, and male goats.” 10
“He was led like a sheep to slaughter,
and like a lamb before its shearer is silent,
so he did 12 not open his mouth.
