Isaiah 53:7-9
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.
9 (B)He was placed in a grave with those who are evil,
he was buried with the rich,
even though he had never committed a crime
or ever told a lie.”
Isaiah 53:7-9
English Standard Version
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,
(A)yet he opened not his mouth;
(B)like a (C)lamb that is led to the slaughter,
and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent,
so he opened not his mouth.
8 By oppression and judgment he was taken away;
and as for his generation, (D)who considered
that he was cut off out of the land of the living,
stricken for the transgression of my people?
9 And they made his grave with the wicked
(E)and with a rich man in his death,
although[a] (F)he had done no violence,
and there was no deceit in his mouth.
