The Holy Bible, English Standard Version

Isaiah 53:4-6
<< Isaiah 52 | Isaiah 53 | Isaiah 54 >>

Surely he has borne our griefs
and carried our sorrows;
yet we esteemed him stricken,
smitten by God, and afflicted.
But he was wounded for our transgressions;
he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
and with his stripes we are healed.
All we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned—every one—to his own way;
and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.

Isaiah 53:10-12
<< Isaiah 52 | Isaiah 53 | Isaiah 54 >>

10 Yet it was the will of the Lord to crush him;
he has put him to grief; [1]
when his soul makes [2] an offering for guilt,
he shall see his offspring; he shall prolong his days;
the will of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
11 Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see [3] and be satisfied;
by his knowledge shall the righteous one, my servant,
make many to be accounted righteous,
and he shall bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore I will divide him a portion with the many, [4]
and he shall divide the spoil with the strong, [5]
because he poured out his soul to death
and was numbered with the transgressors;
yet he bore the sin of many,
and makes intercession for the transgressors.
