10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; He has put him to grief.
    If he made himself as an offering for sin,
he shall see his offspring, he shall prolong his days,
    and the good pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
11 He shall see of the anguish of his soul
    and be satisfied.
By his knowledge My righteous servant shall justify the many,
    for he shall bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore, I will divide him a portion with the great,
    and he shall divide the spoil with the strong,
because he poured out his soul to death,
    and he was numbered with the transgressors,
thus he bore the sin of many
    and made intercession for the transgressors.

10 Yet it was the Lord’s will(A) to crush(B) him and cause him to suffer,(C)
    and though the Lord makes[a] his life an offering for sin,(D)
he will see his offspring(E) and prolong his days,
    and the will of the Lord will prosper(F) in his hand.
11 After he has suffered,(G)
    he will see the light(H) of life[b] and be satisfied[c];
by his knowledge[d] my righteous servant(I) will justify(J) many,
    and he will bear their iniquities.(K)
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,[e](L)
    and he will divide the spoils(M) with the strong,[f]
because he poured out his life unto death,(N)
    and was numbered with the transgressors.(O)
For he bore(P) the sin of many,(Q)
    and made intercession(R) for the transgressors.
