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.^(A)
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.^(B)
9 They made his grave with the wicked
    and his tomb^[a] with the rich,^[b]
although he had done no violence,
    and there was no deceit in his mouth.^(C)
