ULT ISA Chapter 53

◄ ISA 53 ► ║ ©

53 Who has believed our report,

and to whom has the arm of Yahweh been revealed?

2 For he arose like a shoot before his face,

and like a root from parched earth;

he had no features and no splendor;

and we saw in him nothing of appearance to attract us.

3 He was despised and rejected of men;

a man of sorrows, and acquainted with illness,

and like one from whom men hide their faces,

despised, and we considered him nothing.

4 But he has borne our sicknesses

and carried our sorrows;

yet we considered him afflicted,

stricken of God and humiliated.

5 But he was pierced for our rebellion,

crushed for our sins,

The punishment for our peace was on him,

and by his wounds we are healed.

6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray,

each turned to his own way,

and Yahweh has placed on him

the iniquity of us all.

7 He was oppressed, and he was tormented,

and he did not open his mouth;

like a lamb led to the slaughter,

and like a sheep silent before the faces of its shearers,

so he did not open his mouth.

8 By coercion and by judgment he was taken away,

and who of his generation was concerned?

But he was cut off from the land of the living

for the offenses of my people, an affliction for them.

9 And they placed his grave with the criminals,

and with a rich man in his death,

although he had done no violence,

and deceit was not in his mouth.

10 But Yahweh was pleased to bruise him, put him to grief.

If he makes his life an offering for sin,

he will see his seed, prolong his days,

and the purpose of Yahweh will succeed in his hand,

11 From the trouble of his life, he will see light, [fn]

be satisfied by his knowledge.

My righteous servant will justify many,[fn]

and he will bear their iniquities.

12 Therefore, I shall give him a portion among the multitude,

and with the many he will divide the spoils,

because he exposed his life to death

and with the transgressors was numbered.

For he bore the sin of many

and for the transgressors made intercession.

Some ancient manuscripts supply light.

Some versions have By his knowledge, my righteous servant will justify many.
