Isaiah 53:10-12
International Standard Version
The Exaltation of the Servant
10 “Yet the Lord was willing to crush him,
and he made him suffer.[a]
Although you make his soul an offering for sin,
he[b] will see his offspring,
and[c] he will prolong his days,
and the will of the Lord will triumph in his hand.
11 Out of the suffering of his soul he will see light[d]
and[e] find satisfaction.
And[f] through his knowledge his servant,[g] the righteous one,
will make many righteous,
and he will bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore I will allot him a portion with the great,[h]
and he will divide the spoils with the strong;
because he poured out his life to death,
and was numbered with the transgressors;
yet he carried the sins[i] of many,
and made intercession for their transgressions.”[j]

Isaiah 53:10-12
Lexham English Bible
10 Yet[a] Yahweh was pleased to crush him;
he made him sick.[b]
If she[c] places[d] his life a guilt offering,[e]
he will see offspring.
He will prolong days,
and the will of Yahweh will succeed in his hand.
11 From the trouble of his life[f] he will see;[g]
he will be satisfied.
In his knowledge, the righteous one, my servant, shall declare many righteous,[h]
and he is the one who will bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore, I will divide to him a portion among the many,[i]
and with the strong ones he will divide bounty,
because[j] he poured his life out to death
and was counted with the transgressors;
and[k] he was the one who bore the sin of many
and will intercede for the transgressors.
