Surely our griefs He Himself bore, 
And our sorrows He carried;
Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken,
Smitten of God, and afflicted. 

But He was pierced through for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our iniquities;
The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him,
And by His scourging we are healed. 

All of us like sheep have gone astray,
Each of us has turned to his own way; 
But the Lord has caused the iniquity of us all
To fall on Him. 

Isaiah 53:4-6

Merry Christmas! There is no other savior.
