Listen to the Bible
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 53:1 - Who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 53:2 - He grew up before him like a tender shoot, and like a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 53:3 - He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 53:4 - Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 53:5 - But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 53:6 - We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 53:7 - He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; he was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 53:8 - By oppression[fn] and judgment he was taken away. Yet who of his generation protested? For he was cut off from the land of the living; for the transgression of my people he was punished.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 53:9 - He was assigned a grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death, though he had done no violence, nor was any deceit in his mouth.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 53:10 - Yet it was the LORD’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer, and though the LORD makes[fn] his life an offering for sin, he will see his offspring and prolong his days, and the will of the LORD will prosper in his hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 53:11 - After he has suffered, he will see the light of life[fn] and be satisfied[fn]; by his knowledge[fn] my righteous servant will justify many, and he will bear their iniquities.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 53:12 - Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,[fn] and he will divide the spoils with the strong,[fn] because he poured out his life unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors. For he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
