< Isaiah 53 >

1 Who? has he believed report our and [the] arm of Yahweh to whom? has it been revealed.
Who would have had faith in the word which has come to our ears, and to whom had the arm of the Lord been unveiled?
2 And he grew up like shoot before him and like root from ground dry not form [belonged] to him and not splendor and we will look at him and not appearance and we will desire him.
For his growth was like that of a delicate plant before him, and like a root out of a dry place: he had no grace of form, to give us pleasure;
3 [he was] despised And rejected of people a man of pains and a [man] acquainted of sickness and like a hiding of face from him [he was] despised and not we valued him.
Men made sport of him, turning away from him; he was a man of sorrows, marked by disease; and like one from whom men's faces are turned away, he was looked down on, and we put no value on him.
4 Nevertheless sicknesses our he he bore and pains our he carried them and we we considered him stricken struck of God and afflicted.
But it was our pain he took, and our diseases were put on him: while to us he seemed as one diseased, on whom God's punishment had come.
5 And he [was] pierced from transgressions our [was] crushed from iniquities our [the] chastening of peace our [was] on him and by wound[s] his it was healed to us.
But it was for our sins he was wounded, and for our evil doings he was crushed: he took the punishment by which we have peace, and by his wounds we are made well.
6 All of us like sheep we have gone astray each to own way his we have turned and Yahweh he has caused to touch him [the] iniquity of all of us.
We all went wandering like sheep; going every one of us after his desire; and the Lord put on him the punishment of us all.
7 He was oppressed and he [was] afflicted and not he opened mouth his like sheep [which] to the slaughter it is brought and like a ewe [which] before shearers its it is dumb and not he opened mouth his.
Men were cruel to him, but he was gentle and quiet; as a lamb taken to its death, and as a sheep before those who take her wool makes no sound, so he said not a word.
8 From oppression and from judgment he was taken away and generation his who? will he consider for he was cut off from [the] land of living [people] from [the] transgression of people my a wound [belonged] to him.
They took away from him help and right, and who gave a thought to his fate? for he was cut off from the land of the living: he came to his death for the sin of my people.
9 And someone assigned with wicked [people] grave his and with a rich [person] in death his on not violence he had done and not deceit [was] in mouth his.
And they put his body into the earth with sinners, and his last resting-place was with the evil-doers, though he had done no wrong, and no deceit was in his mouth.
10 And Yahweh he desired to crush him he made [him] sick if it will make a guilt offering self his he will see offspring he will prolong days and [the] pleasure of Yahweh in hand his it will prosper.
And the Lord was pleased ... see a seed, long life, ... will do well in his hand. ...
11 From [the] labor of self his he will see he will be satisfied by knowledge his he will justify [the] righteous [one] servant my to many [people] and iniquities their he he will bear.
... made clear his righteousness before men ... had taken their sins on himself.
12 Therefore I will allot a portion to him among the many [people] and with mighty [people] he will apportion [the] plunder because that he poured out to death life his and with transgressors he was numbered and he [the] sin of many [people] he bore and for the transgressors he will make entreaty.
For this cause he will have a heritage with the great, and he will have a part in the goods of war with the strong, because he gave up his life, and was numbered with the evil-doers; taking on himself the sins of the people, and making prayer for the wrongdoers.
