¹Who has trusted our report? And to whom has the arm of Yahweh been revealed?

²He came up before him like a shoot, and like a root out of dry land; he had no form and no splendor, that we should look at him, and no appearance, that we should desire him.

³He was despised, and people held back from him; a man of pains and acquainted with sickness; like one from whom a face is hidden, he was despised, and we did not value him.

⁴Surely he bore our sicknesses and carried our pains; yet we considered him stricken, struck by God, and afflicted.

⁵But he was pierced for our transgressions, crushed for our guilt; the discipline of our wholeness was on him, and by his bruise we are healed.

⁶All of us have gone astray like sheep, each turning to his own way; and Yahweh has made the guilt of us all light upon him.

⁷He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; like a sheep brought to the slaughter, and like a ewe dumb before its shearers, he did not open his mouth.

⁸From restraint and from justice he was taken away; and who will consider his generation? For he was cut off from the land of the living; because of the transgression of my people, a wound was his.

⁹His grave was assigned with the wicked, and with a rich man in his death, though he had done no violence, and no deceit was in his mouth.

¹⁰Yahweh desired to crush him; he made him sick. If his being makes a guilt offering, he will see offspring, he will prolong days, and the pleasure of Yahweh will prosper in his hand.

¹¹From the labor of his being he will see and be satisfied; by his knowledge the righteous one, my servant, will justify the many, and he will bear their iniquities.

¹²Therefore I will allot him a portion among the many, and he will apportion plunder with the mighty; because he poured out his life to death and was numbered with the transgressors, yet he bore the sin of many and will intercede for the transgressors.
