The Sacrifice

...Taken from Isaiah 53...
4: "Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows,
yet we considered him stricken by God,
smitten by him, and afflicted."
5: "But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was upon him,
and by his wounds we are healed."
6: "We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
each of us has turned to his own way;
and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7: "He was oppressed and afflicted,"
yet he did not open his mouth;
he was led like a lamb to the slaughter,
and as a sheep before her shearers is silent,
so he did not open his mouth."

...Taken from John 17...
Jesus looked toward heaven and prayed
1: "Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you."
2: "For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him."
3: "Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent."
4: "I have brought you glory on earth by completing the work you gave me to do."
5: " And now, Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world began."
20: "My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message,"
21: "that all of them may be one, Father, just are you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me."
22: "I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one:"
23: "I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me."
24: Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world."
25: "Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me."
26: "I have made you known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them."
