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
The Suffering Servant
(Acts 8:26–40; 1 Peter 2:21–25)
1Who has believed our message?
And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?#53:1 Cited in John 12:38 and Romans 10:16
2He grew up before Him like a tender shoot,
and like a root out of dry ground.
He had no stately form or majesty to attract us,
no beauty that we should desire Him.
3He was despised and rejected by men,
a man of sorrows, acquainted with grief.
Like one from whom men hide their faces,
He was despised, and we esteemed Him not.
4Surely He took on our infirmities
and carried our sorrows;#53:4 LXX This One bears our sins and is pained for us; cited in Matthew 8:17 and 1 Peter 2:24
yet we considered Him stricken by God,
struck down and afflicted.
5But He was pierced for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him,
and by His stripes we are healed.#53:5 Cited in 1 Peter 2:24
6We all like sheep have gone astray,#53:6 Cited in 1 Peter 2:25
each one has turned to his own way;
and the Lord has laid upon Him
the iniquity of us all.
7He 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 her shearers is silent,
so He did not open His mouth.
8By oppression and judgment He was taken away,
and who can recount His descendants?
For He was cut off from the land of the living;#53:8 LXX In humiliation He was deprived of justice. Who can recount His descendants? For His life was removed from the earth; cited in Acts 8:32–33.
He was stricken for the transgression of My people.
A Grave Assigned
(Matthew 27:57–61; Mark 15:42–47; Luke 23:50–56; John 19:38–42)
9He was assigned a grave with the wicked,
and with a rich man in His death,
although He had done no violence,
nor was any deceit in His mouth.#53:9 Cited in 1 Peter 2:22
10Yet it was the Lord’s will to crush Him
and to cause Him to suffer;
and when His soul is made a guilt offering,#53:10 Or and though He makes His life a guilt offering
He will see His offspring, He will prolong His days,
and the good pleasure of the Lord will prosper in His hand.
11After the anguish of His soul,
He will see the light of life #53:11 DSS (see also LXX); MT does not include the light of life. and be satisfied.
By His knowledge My righteous Servant will justify many,
and He will bear their iniquities.
12Therefore I will allot Him a portion with the great,#53:12 Or many
and He will divide the spoils with the strong,#53:12 Or numerous
because He has poured out His life unto death,
and He was numbered with the transgressors.#53:12 Cited in Luke 22:37
Yet He bore the sin of many
and made intercession for the transgressors.
