10 Yet it was the will of the Lord to crush him with affliction.
When you make his life an offering for sin,[a]
    he shall see his offspring and shall prolong his days;
through him the will of the Lord shall prosper.(A)
11     Out of his anguish he shall see;
he shall find satisfaction through his knowledge.
    The righteous one,[b] my servant, shall make many righteous,
    and he shall bear their iniquities.(B)
12 Therefore I will allot him a portion with the great,
    and he shall divide the spoil with the strong,
because he poured out himself to death
    and was numbered with the transgressors,
yet he bore the sin of many
    and made intercession for the transgressors.(C)

11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.

12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
