uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

(Occurrence 0) For he grew up before Yahweh like a sapling

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_ascended like_the,young_plant before,face/front,him and,like_the,root out_of,ground_of dry not form to=him/it and=not majesty and,look_at,him and=not appearance and,desire,him )

Here “he” refers to God’s servant whom Isaiah compares to a very young tree. This emphasizes that he will appear weak.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) out of parched earth

“parched earth” is hard and dry ground that will not allow plants to grow and represents where the servant of Yahweh will come. Alternate translation: “out of an impossible situation”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

53:2 a tender green shoot . . . in dry ground: Such a plant is vulnerable to extinction (cp. 37:27). It can hardly stay alive for itself, let alone provide anything for anyone else.
• nothing beautiful or majestic: The servant appeared to have no greatness or self-evident royal splendor (see 52:13-15).
• nothing to attract us to him: People like their leaders to be physically attractive and personally charismatic. The servant would be neither.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.

Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
