Isaiah 53:3–9
3 He was despised and rejected by men,w
a man of suffering who knew what sickness was.x
He was like someone people turned away from;F
he was despised, and we didn’t value him.
4 Yet he himself bore our sicknesses,
and he carried our pains;y
but we in turn regarded him stricken,
struck down by God,z and afflicted.
5 But he was pierced because of our rebellion,aa
crushed because of our iniquities;ab
punishmentac for our peace was on him,
and we are healed by his wounds.ad
6 We all went astray like sheep;ae
we all have turned to our own way;
and the Lord has punished him
forG the iniquityaf of us all.ag
7 He was oppressed and afflicted,
yet he did not open his mouth.
Like a lamb led to the slaughter
and like a sheep silent before her shearers,
he did not open his mouth.ah
8 He was taken away because of oppression and judgment,
and who considered his fate?H
For he was cut off from the land of the living;
he was struck because of my people’s rebellion.
9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked,
but he was with a rich man at his death,a
because he had done no violence
and had not spoken deceitfully.b
