NETBible

Now the passage of scripture the man 1  was reading was this: “He was led like a sheep to slaughter, and like a lamb before its shearer is silent, so he did 2  not open his mouth.

NET Notes

tn Grk “he”; the referent (the man) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

tn Grk “does.” The present tense here was translated as a past tense to maintain consistency with the first line of the quotation (“he was led like a sheep to slaughter”), which has an aorist passive verb normally translated as a past tense in English.
