# Chapter 53
|
|
1 Who has believed what he has heard from us?
|
|
And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
|
|
2 For he grew up before him like a young plant,
|
|
and like a root out of dry ground;
|
|
he had no form or majesty that we should look at him,
|
|
and no beauty that we should desire him.
|
|
3 He was despised and rejected by men,
|
|
a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief;
|
|
and as one from whom men hide their faces
|
|
he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
|
|
4 Surely he has borne our griefs
|
|
and carried our sorrows;
|
|
yet we esteemed him stricken,
|
|
smitten by God, and afflicted.
|
|
5 But he was pierced for our transgressions;
|
|
he was crushed for our iniquities;
|
|
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
|
|
and with his wounds we are healed.
|
|
6 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.
|
|
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,
|
|
yet he opened not his mouth;
|
|
like a lamb that is led to the slaughter,
|
|
and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent,
|
|
so he opened not his mouth.
|
|
8 By oppression and judgment he was taken away;
|
|
and as for his generation, who considered
|
|
that he was cut off out of the land of the living,
|
|
stricken for the transgression of my people?
|
|
9 And they made his grave with the wicked
|
|
and with a rich man in his death,
|
|
although he had done no violence,
|
|
and there was no deceit in his mouth.
|
|
10 Yet it was the will of the Lord to crush him;
|
|
he has put him to grief;
|
|
when his soul makes 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 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,
|
|
and he shall divide the spoil with the strong,
|
|
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. |
