Isaiah 53:3-9

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.
