Isaiah 53:7-8
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
7 Though harshly treated, he submitted
and did not open his mouth;
Like a lamb led to slaughter
or a sheep silent before shearers,
he did not open his mouth.(A)
8 Seized and condemned, he was taken away.
Who would have thought any more of his destiny?
For he was cut off from the land of the living,
struck for the sins of his people.
Isaiah 53:7-8
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,
yet he did not open his mouth;
like a lamb that is led to the slaughter,
and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent,
so he did not open his mouth.
8 By a perversion of justice he was taken away.
Who could have imagined his future?
For he was cut off from the land of the living,
stricken for the transgression of my people.
Isaiah 53:7-8
Good News Translation
7 (A)“He was treated harshly, but endured it humbly;
he never said a word.
Like a lamb about to be slaughtered,
like a sheep about to be sheared,
he never said a word.
8 He was arrested and sentenced and led off to die,
and no one cared about his fate.
He was put to death for the sins of our people.
Isaiah 53:7-8
New American Standard Bible

Yet He did not (A)open His mouth;
(B)Like a lamb that is led to slaughter,

And as for His generation, who considered
That He was cut off from the land of the [a]living
(C)For the wrongdoing of my people, to whom the blow was due?
