Isaiah 53:3-12

3 ^aHe was despised and rejected ^{▼▼Or forsaken} by men,
a man of sorrows, ^{▼▼Or pains; also verse 4} and acquainted with ^{▼▼Or and knowing} grief; ^{▼▼Or sickness; also verse 4}
and as one from whom men hide their faces ^{▼▼Or as one who hides his face from us}
he was despised, and ^gwe esteemed him not.
4 ^hSurely he has borne our griefs
and carried our sorrows;
yet we esteemed him stricken,
ⁱsmitten by God, and afflicted.
5 ^jBut he was pierced for our transgressions;
he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
^kand with his wounds we are healed.
6 ^lAll we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned—every one—to his own way;
^mand the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,
ⁿyet he opened not his mouth;
^olike a ^plamb that is led to the slaughter,
and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent,
so he opened not his mouth.
8 By oppression and judgment he was taken away;
and as for his generation, ^qwho considered
that he was cut off out of the land of the living,
stricken for the transgression of my people?
9 And they made his grave with the wicked
^rand with a rich man in his death,
although ^she had done no violence,
and there was no deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet ^tit was the will of the Lord to crush him;
he has put him to grief; ^{▼▼Or he has made him sick}
^vwhen his soul makes ^{▼▼Or when you make his soul} an offering for guilt,
he shall see his offspring; he shall prolong his days;
^xthe will of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
11 Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see ^{▼▼Masoretic Text; Dead Sea Scroll he shall see light} and be satisfied;
by his knowledge shall ^zthe righteous one, my servant,
^aamake many to be accounted righteous,
^aband he shall bear their iniquities.
12 ^acTherefore I will divide him a portion with the many, ^{▼▼Or with the great}
^aeand he shall divide the spoil with the strong, ^{▼▼Or with the numerous}
because he poured out his soul to death
and was numbered with the transgressors;
^agyet he bore the sin of many,
and makes intercession for the transgressors.

Take Up Your Cross and Follow Jesus

23 And he said to all, “If anyone would come after me, let him ^ardeny himself and ^astake up his cross ^atdaily and follow me. 24 For ^auwhoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it. 25 ^avFor what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself?
