Isaiah 53:1-6
New American Standard Bible
The Suffering Servant
53 (A)Who has believed our report?
And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
2 For He grew up before Him like a (B)tender [a]shoot,
And like a root out of dry ground;
He has (C)no stately form or majesty
That we would look at Him,
Nor an appearance that we would take pleasure in Him.
3 He was (D)despised and abandoned by men,
A man of [b]great pain and (E)familiar with sickness;
And like one from whom people hide their faces,
He was (F)despised, and we had no (G)regard for Him.
4 However, it was our sicknesses that He Himself (H)bore,
And our pains that He carried;
Yet we ourselves assumed that He had been afflicted,
Struck down by (I)God, and humiliated.
5 But He was [c]pierced for (J)our offenses,
He was crushed for (K)our wrongdoings;
The (L)punishment for our [d]well-being was laid upon Him,
And by (M)His wounds we are healed.
6 All of us, like sheep, have gone astray,
Each of us has turned to his own way;
But the Lord has caused the wrongdoing of us all
To [e]fall on Him.

Isaiah 53:11-12
New American Standard Bible
11 As a result of the [a]anguish of His soul,
He will [b](A)see it and be satisfied;
By His (B)knowledge the Righteous One,
My Servant, will justify the many,
For He will (C)bear their wrongdoings.
12 Therefore, I will allot Him a (D)portion with the great,
And He will divide the plunder with the strong,
Because He poured out His [c](E)life unto death,
And was (F)counted with wrongdoers;
Yet He Himself (G)bore the sin of many,
And interceded for the wrongdoers.
