YESHAYAHU 53

1 Who has believed our report? And to whom was the arm of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 revealed?

2 For He grew up before Him as a tender plant, and as a root out of dry ground. He has no form or splendour that we should look upon Him, nor appearance that we should desire Him –

3 despised and rejected by men, a man of pains and knowing sickness. And as one from whom the face is hidden, being despised, and we did not consider Him.

4 Truly, He has borne our sicknesses and carried our pains. Yet we reckoned Him stricken, smitten by Elohim, and afflicted.

5 But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our wickednesses. The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.

6 We all, like sheep, went astray, each one of us has turned to his own way. And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 has laid on Him the wickedness of us all.

7 He was oppressed and He was afflicted, but He did not open His mouth. He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silent, but He did not open His mouth.

8 He was taken from prison and from judgment. And as for His generation, who considered that He shall be cut off from the land of the living? For the transgression of My people He was stricken.

9 And He was appointed a grave with the wicked, and with the rich at His death, because He had done no violence, nor was deceit in His mouth.

10 But 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 was pleased to crush Him, He laid sickness on Him, that when He made Himself an offering for guilt, He would see a seed, He would prolong His days and the pleasure of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 prosper in His hand.

11 From he suffering of His life He would see light and be satisfied. Through His knowledge My righteous Servant makes many righteous, and He bears their wickednesses.

12 Therefore I give Him a portion among the great, and He divides the spoil with the strong, because He poured out His being unto death, and He was counted with the transgressors, and He bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
