Isaiah 53
1‘Who has believed our report? To whom is the arm of Adonai revealed?
2For He grew up before Him like a tender shoot, like a root out of dry ground. He had no form or majesty that we should look at Him, nor beauty that we should desire Him.
3He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, acquainted with grief, One from whom people hide their faces. He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.
4Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our pains. Yet we esteemed Him stricken, struck by God, and afflicted.
5But He was pierced because of our transgressions, crushed because of our iniquities. The chastisement for our shalom was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.
6We all like sheep have gone astray. Each of us turned to his own way. So Adonai has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.
7He was oppressed and He was afflicted yet He did not open His mouth. Like a lamb led to the slaughter, like a sheep before its shearers is silent, so He did not open His mouth.
8Because of oppression and judgment He was taken away. As for His generation, who considered? For He was cut off from the land of the living, for the transgression of my people— the stroke was theirs
9His grave was given with the wicked, and by a rich man in His death, though He had done no violence, nor was there any deceit in His mouth.
10Yet it pleased Adonai to bruise Him. He caused Him to suffer. If He makes His soul a guilt offering, He will see His offspring, He will prolong His days, and the will of Adonai will succeed by His hand.
11As a result of the anguish of His soul He will see it and be satisfied by His knowledge. The Righteous One, My Servant will make many righteous and He will bear their iniquities.
12Therefore I will give Him a portion with the great, and He will divide the spoil with the mighty— because He poured out His soul to death, and was counted with transgressors. For He bore the sin of many, and interceded for the transgressors.

Isaiah 53
53
1Who can believe what we have heard,
and for whose sake has the LORD’s arm#53.1 Or power been revealed?
2He grew up like a young plant before us,#53.2 Or him
like a root from dry ground.
He possessed no splendid form for us to see,
no desirable appearance.
3He was despised and avoided by others;
a man who suffered, who knew sickness well.
Like someone from whom people hid their faces,
he was despised, and we didn’t think about him.
4It was certainly our sickness that he carried,
and our sufferings that he bore,
but we thought him afflicted,
struck down by God and tormented.
5He was pierced because of our rebellions
and crushed because of our crimes.
He bore the punishment that made us whole;
by his wounds we are healed.
6Like sheep we had all wandered away,
each going its own way,
but the LORD let fall on him all our crimes.
7He was oppressed and tormented,
but didn’t open his mouth.
Like a lamb being brought to slaughter,
like a ewe silent before her shearers,
he didn’t open his mouth.
8Due to an unjust ruling he was taken away,
and his fate—who will think about it?
He was eliminated from the land of the living,
struck dead because of my people’s rebellion.
9His grave was among the wicked,
his tomb with evildoers,#53.9 Cf Tg; MT and with a rich one in his deaths
though he had done no violence,
and had spoken nothing false.
10But the LORD wanted to crush him
and to make him suffer.
If his life is offered#53.10 Or if you place his life as restitution,
he will see his offspring; he will enjoy long life.
The LORD’s plans will come to fruition through him.
11After his deep anguish he will see light,#53.11 DSS (1QIsaa); MT lacks light. and he will be satisfied.
Through his knowledge, the righteous one, my servant,
will make many righteous,
and will bear their guilt.
12Therefore, I will give him a share with the great,
and he will divide the spoil with the strong,
in return for exposing his life to death
and being numbered with rebels,
though he carried the sin of many
and pleaded on behalf of those who rebelled.
