Isaiah 53:4-12

4However, it was our sicknesses that He Himself 1bore, And our pains that He carried; Yet we ourselves assumed that He had been afflicted, Struck down by 2God, and humiliated.5But He was 3pierced for 4our offenses, He was crushed for 5our wrongdoings; The 6punishment for our 7well-being was laid upon Him, And by 8His wounds we are healed.6All of us, like sheep, have gone astray, Each of us has turned to his own way; But the Lord has caused the wrongdoing of us all To 9fall on Him.

7He was oppressed and afflicted, Yet He did not 10open His mouth; 11Like a lamb that is led to slaughter, And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers, So He did not open His mouth.8By oppression and judgment He was taken away; And as for His generation, who considered That He was cut off from the land of the 12living 13For the wrongdoing of my people, to whom the blow was due?9And His grave was assigned with wicked men, Yet He was with a 14rich man in His death, 15Because He had 16done no violence, Nor was there any deceit in His mouth.

10But the Lord desired To 17crush Him, 1819causing Him grief; If He renders 20Himself as a guilt 21offering, He will see 22His 23offspring, He will prolong His days, And the 24good 25pleasure of the Lord will prosper in His hand.11As a result of the 26anguish of His soul, He will 2728see it and be satisfied; By His 29knowledge the Righteous One, My Servant, will justify the many, For He will 30bear their wrongdoings.12Therefore, I will allot Him a 31portion with the great, And He will divide the plunder with the strong, Because He poured out His 3233life unto death, And was 34counted with wrongdoers; Yet He Himself 35bore the sin of many, And interceded for the wrongdoers.
