2 For he grew up before him like a young plant,
^aand like a root out of dry ground;
^bhe had no form or majesty that we should look at him,
and no beauty that we should desire him.
3 ^cHe was despised and rejected ^{▼▼Or forsaken} by men,
a man of sorrows, ^{▼▼Or pains; also verse 4} and acquainted with ^{▼▼Or and knowing} grief; ^{▼▼Or sickness; also verse 4}
and as one from whom men hide their faces ^{▼▼Or as one who hides his face from us}
