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.
