1Who has believed our message? And to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed? 2For He grew up before Him like a tender plant, and like a root out of dry ground; He had no beauty nor majesty that would attract us to Him. 3He was despised and rejected by men; a Man of sorrows, and well acquainted with pain and grief, and we turned our faces from Him; He was despised, and we held Him in low esteem. 4Surely, He has borne our pain and our sorrows; yet we considered Him stricken and punished by God. 5But the truth is, He was wounded for our transgressions, He was punished for our sins; the price for our peace was willingly paid by Him; and by His stripes we are healed. 6All we like sheep have gone astray; we have all turned to our own way; and the LORD has laid on Him the sins of us all. 7He was oppressed, and He was afflicted, yet He did not open His mouth in protest; He was brought like a lamb to the slaughter, and like a sheep before its shearers is silent, even so He did not open His mouth. 8Unjustly condemned, He was led away, taken from prison and then from the land of the living; and who from His generation protested? For the transgression of My people, He was slain. 9And they treated Him like a common criminal, yet He was put in a rich man’s grave; because He had done no violence, nor did He deceive anyone.

10Yet it was the LORD’s will to crush Him; and to put Him to grief; and yet, when He shall make His soul an offering for sin, He shall see His many (spiritual) offspring, and He shall prolong His days, and the will of the LORD shall prosper in His hand. 11When He shall see all that is accomplished by the anguish of His soul, He shall be satisfied; by His knowledge shall My righteous Servant justify many; for He shall bear all their sins. 12Therefore I will give Him a portion among the great, and He shall share in the rewards; because He has poured out His life unto death; and He was numbered with the transgressors; and He bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
