Isaiah 53:2-7
Lexham English Bible
2 For[a] he went[b] up like a shoot before him,
and like a root from dry ground.
He had no form and no majesty that[c] we should see him,
and no appearance that[d] we should take pleasure in him.
3 He was despised and rejected by men,
a man of suffering, and acquainted with[e] sickness,
and like one from whom others hide their faces,[f] he was despised,
and we did not hold him in high regard.
4 However, he was the one who lifted up our sicknesses,
and he carried our pain,
yet[g] we ourselves assumed him stricken,
struck down by God and afflicted.
5 But[h] he was pierced[i] because of our transgressions,
crushed because of our iniquities;
the chastisement for[j] our peace[k] was upon him,
and by his wounds[l] we were healed.[m]
6 All of us have wandered about like sheep;
we each have turned to his own way;
and Yahweh let fall on him
the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed and afflicted,
yet[n] he did not open his mouth;
he was brought like a lamb to the slaughter,
and like a sheep is dumb before its shearers,
so[o] he did not open his mouth.
