Isaiah 53:2
New American Standard Bible
2 For He grew up before Him like a (A)tender [a]shoot,
And like a root out of dry ground;
He has (B)no stately form or majesty
That we would look at Him,
Nor an appearance that we would take pleasure in Him.

New International Version
Isaiah 53:2
Contemporary English Version
2 Like a young plant or a root
that sprouts in dry ground,
the servant grew up
obeying the Lord.
He wasn't some handsome king.
Nothing about the way he looked
made him attractive to us.

2 My servant grew up in the Lord’s presence like a tender green shoot,
like a root in dry ground.
There was nothing beautiful or majestic about his appearance,
nothing to attract us to him.
