Kabbalah Yesaya 50:6: Sha'arei Kedusha

גֵּוִי֙ נָתַ֣תִּי לְמַכִּ֔ים וּלְחָיַ֖י לְמֹֽרְטִ֑ים פָּנַי֙ לֹ֣א הִסְתַּ֔רְתִּי מִכְּלִמּ֖וֹת וָרֹֽק׃

Punggungku kuberikan kepada orang-orang yang memukul, dan pipiku kepada orang-orang yang mencabuti; wajahku tidak kusembunyikan dari cercaan dan ludah.

Sha'arei Kedusha

Our sages, of blessed memory, stated,398Talmud Bavli, Sanhedrin 44b “One should plead for mercy every day, and that he should have no enemies.” It is written,399Lamentations 3:29-30 “Let him put his mouth to the dust… Let him offer his cheek to he who smites him, let him be filled with disgrace.” Happy is he who hears his disgrace and does not respond.400Sefer Mitzvot Gadol, Prohibitive Commandment 12 Isaiah the Prophet thus stated,401Isaiah 50:6 “I submitted my body to those who smite and my cheeks to those who pluck; I did not hide my face from humiliation and spit.”
