Surely our [a]griefs He Himself [b](A)bore,
And our [c]sorrows He [d]carried;
Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken,
[e]Smitten of (B)God, and afflicted.
But He was [f]pierced through for (C)our transgressions,
He was crushed for (D)our iniquities;
The (E)chastening for our peace fell upon Him,
And by (F)His [g]wounds we are healed.
All of us like sheep have gone astray,
Each of us has turned to his own way;
But Yahweh has caused the iniquity of us all
To [h]fall on Him.
