"Random" Translations

[Cyprium]

I plan to...now and then...post various translations of verses here which i choose out without forethought. You can call it random...but it's more likely just what He leads me to.

14 -As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men:
