21 Christ suffered for you. He left you an example. He expects you to follow in his steps. You too were chosen to suffer. 22 23 People shouted at him and made fun of him. But he didn't do the same back to them. He suffered. But he didn't say that bad things would happen to them. Instead, he trusted in the One who judges fairly. 24 He himself carried our sins in his body on the cross. He did it so that we would die as far as sins are concerned. Then we would lead godly lives. His wounds have made you whole. 25 You were like sheep who were wandering away. But now you have returned to the Shepherd. He is the Leader of your souls.
