21 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in His footsteps:

22 "He committed no sin,

and no deceit was found in His mouth."*2:22 Isaiah 53:9

23 When they heaped abuse on Him,

He did not retaliate;

when He suffered, He made no threats,

but entrusted Himself to Him who judges justly.
