Version
Isaiah 53:4-12

4 However, it was our sicknesses that He Himself (A)bore,
And our pains that He carried;
Yet we ourselves assumed that He had been afflicted,
Struck down by (B)God, and humiliated.
5 But He was [a]pierced for (C)our offenses,
He was crushed for (D)our wrongdoings;
The (E)punishment for our [b]well-being was laid upon Him,
And by (F)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 [c]fall on Him.

7 He was oppressed and afflicted,
Yet He did not (G)open His mouth;
(H)Like a lamb that is led to slaughter,
And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers,
So He did not open His mouth.
8 By oppression and judgment He was taken away;
And as for His generation, who considered
That He was cut off from the land of the [d]living
(I)For the wrongdoing of my people, to whom the blow was due?
9 And His grave was assigned with wicked men,
Yet He was with a (J)rich man in His death,
(K)Because He had (L)done no violence,
Nor was there any deceit in His mouth.

10 But the Lord desired
To (M)crush Him, [e](N)causing Him grief;
If He renders [f]Himself as a guilt (O)offering,
He will see (P)His [g]offspring,
He will prolong His days,
And the [h]good (Q)pleasure of the Lord will prosper in His hand.
11 As a result of the [i]anguish of His soul,
He will [j](R)see it and be satisfied;
By His (S)knowledge the Righteous One,
My Servant, will justify the many,
For He will (T)bear their wrongdoings.
12 Therefore, I will allot Him a (U)portion with the great,
And He will divide the plunder with the strong,
Because He poured out His [k](V)life unto death,
And was (W)counted with wrongdoers;
Yet He Himself (X)bore the sin of many,
And interceded for the wrongdoers.

The Perfect High Priest

5 For every high priest (A)taken from among men is appointed on behalf of people in (B)things pertaining to God, in order to (C)offer both gifts and sacrifices (D)for sins; 2 [a](E)he can deal gently with the (F)ignorant and (G)misguided, since he himself also is [b](H)clothed in weakness; 3 and because of it he is obligated to offer sacrifices (I)for sins for himself, (J)as well as for the people. 4 And (K)no one takes the honor for himself, but receives it when he is called by God, just (L)as Aaron also was.

5 So too Christ (M)did not glorify Himself in becoming a (N)high priest, but it was He who (O)said to Him,

“(P)You are My Son,
Today I have fathered You”;

6 just as He also says in another passage,

“(Q)You are a priest forever
According to (R)the order of Melchizedek.”

7 In the days of [c]His humanity, [d](S)He offered up both prayers and pleas with (T)loud crying and tears to the One (U)able to save Him [e]from death, and He [f]was heard because of His (V)devout behavior. 8 Although He was (W)a Son, He learned (X)obedience from the things which He suffered. 9 And having been (Y)perfected, He became the source of eternal salvation for all those who obey Him, 10 being designated by God as (Z)High Priest according to (AA)the order of Melchizedek.

Mark 10:35-45

35 [a](A)James and John, the two sons of Zebedee, *came up to [b]Jesus, saying to Him, “Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask of You.” 36 And He said to them, “What do you want Me to do for you?” 37 They said to Him, “[c]Grant that we (B)may sit, one on Your right and one on Your left, in Your glory.” 38 But Jesus said to them, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able (C)to drink the cup that I drink, or (D)to be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized?” 39 They said to Him, “We are able.” And Jesus said to them, “The cup that I drink (E)you shall drink; and you shall be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized. 40 But to sit on My right or on My left is not Mine to give; (F)but it is for those for whom it has been prepared.”

41 (G)Hearing this, the other ten began to feel indignant with [d]James and John. 42 Calling them to Himself, Jesus *said to them, “You know that those who are recognized as rulers of the Gentiles domineer over them; and their [e]people in high position exercise authority over them. 43 But it is not this way among you; (H)rather, whoever wants to become [f]prominent among you shall be your servant; 44 and whoever wants to be first among you shall be slave of all. 45 For even the Son of Man (I)did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His [g]life as a ransom for many.”
