Isaiah 53:4-6
New King James Version
4 Surely (A)He has borne our [a]griefs
And carried our [b]sorrows;
Yet we [c]esteemed Him stricken,
[d]Smitten by God, and afflicted.
5 But He was (B)wounded[e] for our transgressions,
He was [f]bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His (C)stripes[g] we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray;
We have turned, every one, to his own way;
And the Lord [h]has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.

Romans 5:6-8
New King James Version
Christ in Our Place
6 For when we were still without strength, [a]in due time (A)Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. 8 But (B)God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
