¹¹ For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
    so great is his love^(A) for those who fear him;^(B)

¹² as far as the east is from the west,
    so far has he removed our transgressions^(A) from us.

¹⁸ “Come now, let us settle the matter,”^(A)
    says the Lord.
“Though your sins are like scarlet,
    they shall be as white as snow;^(B)
though they are red as crimson,
    they shall be like wool.^(C)

²⁵ “I, even I, am he who blots out
    your transgressions,^(A) for my own sake,^(B)
    and remembers your sins^(C) no more.^(D)

⁵ But he was pierced^(A) for our transgressions,^(B)
    he was crushed^(C) for our iniquities;
the punishment^(D) that brought us peace^(E) was on him,
    and by his wounds^(F) we are healed.^(G)

⁸ By oppression^[a] and judgment^(A) he was taken away.
    Yet who of his generation protested?
For he was cut off from the land of the living;^(B)
    for the transgression^(C) of my people he was punished.^[b]

¹⁰ Yet it was the Lord’s will^(A) to crush^(B) him and cause him to suffer,^(C)
    and though the Lord makes^[a] his life an offering for sin,^(D)
he will see his offspring^(E) and prolong his days,
    and the will of the Lord will prosper^(F) in his hand.

¹² Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,^[a](A)
    and he will divide the spoils^(B) with the strong,^[b]
because he poured out his life unto death,^(C)
    and was numbered with the transgressors.^(D)
For he bore^(E) the sin of many,^(F)
    and made intercession^(G) for the transgressors.

³⁴ No longer will they teach^(A) their neighbor,
    or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’
because they will all know^(B) me,
    from the least of them to the greatest,”
declares the Lord.
“For I will forgive^(C) their wickedness
    and will remember their sins^(D) no more.”
