The Exalted Servant
13 Behold, My (A)Servant will prosper,
He will be high and lifted up and [a]greatly (B)exalted.
14 Just as many were appalled at you, My people,
So His (C)appearance was marred beyond that of a man,
And His form beyond the sons of mankind.
15 So [b]He will (D)sprinkle many nations,
Kings will (E)shut their mouths on account of Him;
For (F)what they had not been told, they will see,
And what they had not heard, they will understand.
The Suffering Servant
53 (G)Who has believed our report?
And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
2 For He grew up before Him like a (H)tender [c]shoot,
And like a root out of dry ground;
He has (I)no stately form or majesty
That we would look at Him,
Nor an appearance that we would take pleasure in Him.
3 He was (J)despised and abandoned by men,
A man of [d]great pain and (K)familiar with sickness;
And like one from whom people hide their faces,
He was (L)despised, and we had no (M)regard for Him.
4 However, it was our sicknesses that He Himself (N)bore,
And our pains that He carried;
Yet we ourselves assumed that He had been afflicted,
Struck down by (O)God, and humiliated.
5 But He was [e]pierced for (P)our offenses,
He was crushed for (Q)our wrongdoings;
The (R)punishment for our [f]well-being was laid upon Him,
And by (S)His wounds we are healed.
6 All of us, like sheep, have gone astray,
Each of us has turned to his own way;
But the Lord has caused the wrongdoing of us all
To [g]fall on Him.
7 He was oppressed and afflicted,
Yet He did not (T)open His mouth;
(U)Like a lamb that is led to slaughter,
And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers,
So He did not open His mouth.
8 By oppression and judgment He was taken away;
And as for His generation, who considered
That He was cut off from the land of the [h]living
(V)For the wrongdoing of my people, to whom the blow was due?
9 And His grave was assigned with wicked men,
Yet He was with a (W)rich man in His death,
(X)Because He had (Y)done no violence,
Nor was there any deceit in His mouth.
10 But the Lord desired
To (Z)crush Him, [i](AA)causing Him grief;
If He renders [j]Himself as a guilt (AB)offering,
He will see (AC)His [k]offspring,
He will prolong His days,
And the [l]good (AD)pleasure of the Lord will prosper in His hand.
11 As a result of the [m]anguish of His soul,
He will [n](AE)see it and be satisfied;
By His (AF)knowledge the Righteous One,
My Servant, will justify the many,
For He will (AG)bear their wrongdoings.
12 Therefore, I will allot Him a (AH)portion with the great,
And He will divide the plunder with the strong,
Because He poured out His [o](AI)life unto death,
And was (AJ)counted with wrongdoers;
Yet He Himself (AK)bore the sin of many,
And interceded for the wrongdoers.

The Suffering and Glory of the Servant
13 See, my servant(A) will act wisely[a];
he will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted.(B)
14 Just as there were many who were appalled(C) at him[b]—
his appearance was so disfigured(D) beyond that of any human being
and his form marred beyond human likeness(E)—
15 so he will sprinkle(F) many nations,[c]
and kings(G) will shut their mouths(H) because of him.
For what they were not told, they will see,
and what they have not heard, they will understand.(I)
53 Who has believed our message(J)
and to whom has the arm(K) of the Lord been revealed?(L)
2 He grew up before him like a tender shoot,(M)
and like a root(N) out of dry ground.
He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him,
nothing in his appearance(O) that we should desire him.
3 He was despised and rejected by mankind,
a man of suffering,(P) and familiar with pain.(Q)
Like one from whom people hide(R) their faces
he was despised,(S) and we held him in low esteem.
4 Surely he took up our pain
and bore our suffering,(T)
yet we considered him punished by God,(U)
stricken by him, and afflicted.(V)
5 But he was pierced(W) for our transgressions,(X)
he was crushed(Y) for our iniquities;
the punishment(Z) that brought us peace(AA) was on him,
and by his wounds(AB) we are healed.(AC)
6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray,(AD)
each of us has turned to our own way;(AE)
and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity(AF) of us all.
7 He was oppressed(AG) and afflicted,
yet he did not open his mouth;(AH)
he was led like a lamb(AI) to the slaughter,(AJ)
and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
so he did not open his mouth.
8 By oppression[d] and judgment(AK) he was taken away.
Yet who of his generation protested?
For he was cut off from the land of the living;(AL)
for the transgression(AM) of my people he was punished.[e]
9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked,(AN)
and with the rich(AO) in his death,
though he had done no violence,(AP)
nor was any deceit in his mouth.(AQ)
10 Yet it was the Lord’s will(AR) to crush(AS) him and cause him to suffer,(AT)
and though the Lord makes[f] his life an offering for sin,(AU)
he will see his offspring(AV) and prolong his days,
and the will of the Lord will prosper(AW) in his hand.
11 After he has suffered,(AX)
he will see the light(AY) of life[g] and be satisfied[h];
by his knowledge[i] my righteous servant(AZ) will justify(BA) many,
and he will bear their iniquities.(BB)
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,[j](BC)
and he will divide the spoils(BD) with the strong,[k]
because he poured out his life unto death,(BE)
and was numbered with the transgressors.(BF)
For he bore(BG) the sin of many,(BH)
and made intercession(BI) for the transgressors.

Micah 5:2-4
New American Standard Bible
2 [a]But as for (A)you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,
Too little to be among the clans of Judah,
From (B)you One will come forth for Me to be (C)ruler in Israel.
His times of coming forth are (D)from long ago,
From the days of eternity.”
3 Therefore He will (E)give them up until the time
When she (F)who is in labor has given birth.
Then the (G)remainder of His kinsmen
Will return to the sons of Israel.
4 And He will arise and (H)shepherd His flock
In the strength of the Lord,
In the majesty of the name of the Lord His God.
And they will [b]remain,
Because [c]at that time He will be great
To the (I)ends of the earth.

Micah 5:2-4
New International Version
2 “But you, Bethlehem(A) Ephrathah,(B)
though you are small among the clans[a] of Judah,
out of you will come for me
one who will be ruler(C) over Israel,
whose origins are from of old,(D)
from ancient times.”(E)
3 Therefore Israel will be abandoned(F)
until the time when she who is in labor bears a son,
and the rest of his brothers return
to join the Israelites.

Nor do I have the (B)knowledge of the Holy One.
4 Who has (C)ascended into heaven and descended?
