2 Coríntios 5

2 Coríntios 5:21

And he, since he understood at once his Father's divine counsel, and because he discerned better than any other why he was forsaken by the Father, humbled himself even more. He embraced death for us with all willingness and "became a curse for us," holy and all-blessed though he was.… "He that knew no sin, became sin, that we might become the righteousness of God in him." Yet more—to wash away our sins he was crucified, suffering what we who were sinful should have suffered, as our sacrifice and ransom, so that we may well say with the prophet, he bears our sins and is pained for us, and he was wounded for our sins and bruised for our iniquities, so that by his stripes we might be healed, for the Lord has given him for our sins. So, as delivered up by the Father, as bruised, as bearing our sins, he was led as a sheep to the slaughter. — PROOF OF THE GOSPEL 4.17
