Isaiah 53:4-6
New International Version
4 Surely he took up our pain
and bore our suffering,(A)
yet we considered him punished by God,(B)
stricken by him, and afflicted.(C)
5 But he was pierced(D) for our transgressions,(E)
he was crushed(F) for our iniquities;
the punishment(G) that brought us peace(H) was on him,
and by his wounds(I) we are healed.(J)
6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray,(K)
each of us has turned to our own way;(L)
and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity(M) of us all.
Isaiah 53:11-12
New International Version
11 After he has suffered,(A)
he will see the light(B) of life[a] and be satisfied[b];
by his knowledge[c] my righteous servant(C) will justify(D) many,
and he will bear their iniquities.(E)
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,[d](F)
and he will divide the spoils(G) with the strong,[e]
because he poured out his life unto death,(H)
and was numbered with the transgressors.(I)
For he bore(J) the sin of many,(K)
and made intercession(L) for the transgressors.
