10 But [a]Yahweh was pleased
To (A)crush Him, [b](B)putting Him to grief;
If You would place His soul as a guilt (C)offering,
He will see (D)His seed,
He will prolong His days,
And the [c]good (E)pleasure of Yahweh will succeed in His hand.
11 As a result of the [d]anguish of His soul,
He will (F)see [e]it and be satisfied;
By His (G)knowledge the Righteous One,
My Servant, will [f]justify the many,
As He will (H)bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore, I will divide for Him a (I)portion with the many,
And He will divide the spoil with the strong;
Because He poured out (J)His soul to death,
And was (K)numbered with the transgressors;
Yet He Himself [g](L)bore the sin of many,
And interceded for the transgressors.
