Isaiah 53:2-7
English Standard Version
2 For he grew up before him like a young plant,
(A)and like a root out of dry ground;
(B)he had no form or majesty that we should look at him,
and no beauty that we should desire him.
3 (C)He was despised and rejected[a] by men,
a man of sorrows[b] and acquainted with[c] grief;[d]
and as one from whom men hide their faces[e]
he was despised, and (D)we esteemed him not.
4 (E)Surely he has borne our griefs
and carried our sorrows;
yet we esteemed him stricken,
(F)smitten by God, and afflicted.
5 (G)But he was pierced for our transgressions;
he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
(H)and with his wounds we are healed.
6 (I)All we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned—every one—to his own way;
(J)and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,
(K)yet he opened not his mouth;
(L)like a (M)lamb that is led to the slaughter,
and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent,
so he opened not his mouth.

a man of suffering,(D) and familiar with pain.(E)
Like one from whom people hide(F) their faces

and bore our suffering,(H)
yet we considered him punished by God,(I)
stricken by him, and afflicted.(J)

he was crushed(M) for our iniquities;
the punishment(N) that brought us peace(O) was on him,
and by his wounds(P) we are healed.(Q)
6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray,(R)
each of us has turned to our own way;(S)
