Isaiah 53:4-12
English Standard Version
Isaiah 53:4-12
English Standard Version
4 (A)Surely he has borne our griefs
and carried our sorrows;
yet we esteemed him stricken,
(B)smitten by God, and afflicted.
5 (C)But he was pierced for our transgressions;
he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
(D)and with his wounds we are healed.
6 (E)All we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned—every one—to his own way;
(F)and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,
(G)yet he opened not his mouth;
(H)like a (I)lamb 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, (J)who 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
(K)and with a rich man in his death,
although (L)he had done no violence,
and there was no deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet (M)it was the will of the Lord to crush him;
he has put him to grief;[a]
(N)when his soul makes[b] an offering for guilt,
he shall see his offspring; he shall prolong his days;
(O)the will of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
11 Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see[c] and be satisfied;
by his knowledge shall (P)the righteous one, my servant,
(Q)make many to be accounted righteous,
(R)and he shall bear their iniquities.
12 (S)Therefore I will divide him a portion with the many,[d]
(T)and he shall divide the spoil with the strong,[e]
because he poured out his soul to death
and was numbered with the transgressors;
(U)yet he bore the sin of many,
and makes intercession for the transgressors.

Isaiah 53:4-12
New International Version
4 Surely he took up our pain
and bore our suffering,(A)
yet we considered him punished by God,(B)
stricken by him, and afflicted.(C)
5 But he was pierced(D) for our transgressions,(E)
he was crushed(F) for our iniquities;
the punishment(G) that brought us peace(H) was on him,
and by his wounds(I) we are healed.(J)
6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray,(K)
each of us has turned to our own way;(L)
and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity(M) of us all.
7 He was oppressed(N) and afflicted,
yet he did not open his mouth;(O)
he was led like a lamb(P) to the slaughter,(Q)
and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
so he did not open his mouth.
8 By oppression[a] and judgment(R) he was taken away.
Yet who of his generation protested?
For he was cut off from the land of the living;(S)
for the transgression(T) of my people he was punished.[b]
9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked,(U)
and with the rich(V) in his death,
though he had done no violence,(W)
nor was any deceit in his mouth.(X)
10 Yet it was the Lord’s will(Y) to crush(Z) him and cause him to suffer,(AA)
and though the Lord makes[c] his life an offering for sin,(AB)
he will see his offspring(AC) and prolong his days,
and the will of the Lord will prosper(AD) in his hand.
11 After he has suffered,(AE)
he will see the light(AF) of life[d] and be satisfied[e];
by his knowledge[f] my righteous servant(AG) will justify(AH) many,
and he will bear their iniquities.(AI)
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,[g](AJ)
and he will divide the spoils(AK) with the strong,[h]
because he poured out his life unto death,(AL)
and was numbered with the transgressors.(AM)
For he bore(AN) the sin of many,(AO)
and made intercession(AP) for the transgressors.

My Refuge and My Fortress
91 He who dwells in (A)the shelter of the Most High
will abide in (B)the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say[a] to the Lord, “My (C)refuge and my (D)fortress,
my God, in whom I (E)trust.”
3 For he will deliver you from (F)the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence.
4 He will (G)cover you with his pinions,
and under his (H)wings you will (I)find refuge;
his (J)faithfulness is (K)a shield and buckler.
5 (L)You will not fear (M)the terror of the night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
nor the destruction that wastes at noonday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only look with your eyes
and (N)see the recompense of the wicked.
9 Because you have made the Lord your (O)dwelling place—
the Most High, who is my (P)refuge[b]—
10 (Q)no evil shall be allowed to befall you,
(R)no plague come near your tent.
11 (S)For he will command his (T)angels concerning you
to (U)guard you in all your ways.
12 On their hands they will bear you up,
lest you (V)strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on (W)the lion and the (X)adder;
the young lion and (Y)the serpent you will (Z)trample underfoot.
14 “Because he (AA)holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him;
I will protect him, because he (AB)knows my name.
15 When he (AC)calls to me, I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will rescue him and (AD)honor him.
16 With (AE)long life I will satisfy him
and (AF)show him my salvation.”

Hebrews 4:12-16
English Standard Version
12 For (A)the word of God is living and (B)active, (C)sharper than any (D)two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and (E)discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13 And (F)no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are (G)naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.
Jesus the Great High Priest
14 Since then we have (H)a great high priest (I)who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, (J)let us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a high priest (K)who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been (L)tempted as we are, (M)yet without sin. 16 (N)Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Hebrews 4:12-16
New International Version
12 For the word of God(A) is alive(B) and active.(C) Sharper than any double-edged sword,(D) it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.(E) 13 Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight.(F) Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.
Jesus the Great High Priest
14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest(G) who has ascended into heaven,[a](H) Jesus the Son of God,(I) let us hold firmly to the faith we profess.(J) 15 For we do not have a high priest(K) who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are(L)—yet he did not sin.(M) 16 Let us then approach(N) God’s throne of grace with confidence,(O) so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

The Request of James and John
35 (A)And James and John, (B)the sons of Zebedee, came up to him and said to him, “Teacher, we want you to do for us (C)whatever we ask of you.” 36 And he said to them, (D)“What do you want me to do for you?” 37 And they said to him, “Grant us (E)to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, (F)in your glory.” 38 Jesus said to them, (G)“You do not know what you are asking. Are you able (H)to drink the cup that I drink, or (I)to be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized?” 39 And they said to him, “We are able.” And Jesus said to them, (J)“The cup that I drink (K)you will drink, and with the baptism with which I am baptized, (L)you will be baptized, 40 but to sit at my right hand or at my left is not mine to grant, (M)but it is for those for whom it has been (N)prepared.” 41 And when the ten heard it, they began to be indignant at James and John. 42 (O)And Jesus called them to him and said to them, “You know that those who are considered rulers of the Gentiles (P)lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. 43 But (Q)it shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant,[a] 44 and whoever would be first among you must be (R)slave[b] of all. 45 For even the Son of Man came not to be served but (S)to serve, and (T)to give his life as a ransom for (U)many.”

Mark 10:35-45
New International Version
The Request of James and John(A)
35 Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him. “Teacher,” they said, “we want you to do for us whatever we ask.”
36 “What do you want me to do for you?” he asked.
37 They replied, “Let one of us sit at your right and the other at your left in your glory.”(B)
38 “You don’t know what you are asking,”(C) Jesus said. “Can you drink the cup(D) I drink or be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with?”(E)
39 “We can,” they answered.
Jesus said to them, “You will drink the cup I drink and be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with,(F) 40 but to sit at my right or left is not for me to grant. These places belong to those for whom they have been prepared.”
41 When the ten heard about this, they became indignant with James and John. 42 Jesus called them together and said, “You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. 43 Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,(G) 44 and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all. 45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve,(H) and to give his life as a ransom for many.”(I)
