Isaiah 53:1-3
International Standard Version
53 “Who[a] has believed our message,
and[b] to[c] whom has the arm[d] of the Lord been revealed?
2 For he grew up before him like a tender plant,
and like a root out of a dry ground;
he had no form and he had[e] no majesty that we should look at him,[f]
and there is no attractiveness that we should desire him.[g]
3 “He was despised and rejected by others,
and[h] a man of sorrows,
intimately familiar with[i] suffering;
and like one from whom people hide their faces;
and[j] we despised him[k]
and did not value him.

New International Version
53 Who has believed our message(A)
and to whom has the arm(B) of the Lord been revealed?(C)
2 He grew up before him like a tender shoot,(D)
and like a root(E) out of dry ground.
He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him,
nothing in his appearance(F) that we should desire him.
3 He was despised and rejected by mankind,
a man of suffering,(G) and familiar with pain.(H)
Like one from whom people hide(I) their faces
he was despised,(J) and we held him in low esteem.
