Isaiah 53:2–5

2 He grew up before him like a young plantu

and like a root out of dry ground.

He didn’t have an impressive form

or majesty that we should look at him,

no appearance that we should desire him.v

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
