[1] Who has believed our message?
To whom has Yahweh’s arm been revealed?
[2] For he grew up before him as a tender plant,
and as a root out of dry ground.
He has no good looks or majesty.
When we see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
[3] He was despised
and rejected by men,
a man of suffering
and acquainted with disease.
He was despised as one from whom men hide their face;
and we didn’t respect him. [4] Surely he has borne our sickness
and carried our suffering;
yet we considered him plagued,
struck by God, and afflicted.
[5] But he was pierced for our transgressions.
He was crushed for our iniquities.
The punishment that brought our peace was on him;
and by his wounds we are healed.
[6] All we like sheep have gone astray.
Everyone has turned to his own way;
and Yahweh has laid on him the iniquity of us all. [7] He was oppressed,
yet when he was afflicted he didn’t open his mouth.
As a lamb that is led to the slaughter,
and as a sheep that before its shearers is silent,
so he didn’t open his mouth.
[8] He was taken away by oppression and judgment.
As for his generation,
who considered that he was cut off out of the land of the living
and stricken for the disobedience of my people?
[9] They made his grave with the wicked,
and with a rich man in his death,
although he had done no violence,
nor was any deceit in his mouth. [10] Yet it pleased Yahweh to bruise him.
He has caused him to suffer.
When you make his soul an offering for sin,
he will see his offspring.
He will prolong his days
and Yahweh’s pleasure will prosper in his hand.
[11] After the suffering of his soul,
he will see the light‡ and be satisfied.
My righteous servant will justify many by the knowledge of himself;
and he will bear their iniquities.
[12] Therefore I will give him a portion with the great.
He will divide the plunder with the strong,
because he poured out his soul to death
and was counted with the transgressors;
yet he bore the sins of many
and made intercession for the transgressors.

King James Version
[1] Who hath believed H539 our report? H8052§ and to whom is the arm H2220 of the Lord H3068 revealed? H1540 [2] For he shall grow up H5927 before H6440 him as a tender plant, H3126 and as a root H8328 out of a dry H6723 ground: H776 he hath no form H8389 nor comeliness; H1926 and when we shall see H7200 him, there is no beauty H4758 that we should desire H2530 him. [3] He is despised H959 and rejected H2310 of men; H376 a man H376 of sorrows, H4341 and acquainted H3045 with grief: H2483 and we hid as it were H4564 our faces H6440 from H4480 him; he was despised, H959 and we esteemed H2803 him not. [4] Surely H403 he hath borne H5375 our griefs, H2483 and carried H5445 our sorrows: H4341 yet we did esteem H2803 him stricken, H5060 smitten H5221 of God, H430 and afflicted. H6031 [5] But he was wounded§ H2490 for our transgressions, H6588 he was bruised H1792 for our iniquities: H5771 the chastisement H4148 of our peace H7965 was upon him; and with his stripes H2250§ we are healed. H7495 [6] All H3605 we like sheep H6629 have gone astray; H8582 we have turned H6437 every H3605 one H376 to his own way; H1870 and the Lord H3068 hath laid H6293 H853 on him the iniquity H5771 of us all.§ [7] He was oppressed, H5065 and he was afflicted, H6031 yet he opened H6605 not H3808 his mouth: H6310 he is brought H2986 as a lamb H7716 to the slaughter, H2874 and as a sheep H7353 before H6440 her shearers H1494 is dumb, H481 so he openeth H6605 not H3808 his mouth. H6310 [8] He was taken H3947 from prison H6115 and from judgment: H4941 and who shall declare H7878 his generation? H1755 for he was cut off H1504 out of the land H776 of the living: H2416 for the transgression H6588 of my people H5971 was he stricken. H5061§ [9] And he made H5414 his grave H6913 with H854 the wicked, H7563 and with the rich H6223 in his death; H4194§ because he had done H6213 no violence, H2555 neither was any deceit H4820 in his mouth. H6310 [10] Yet it pleased H2654 the Lord H3068 to bruise H1792 him; he hath put him to grief: H2470 when thou shalt make H7760 his soul H5315 an offering for sin, H817 he shall see H7200 his seed, H2233 he shall prolong H748 his days, H3117 and the pleasure H2656 of the Lord H3068 shall prosper H6743 in his hand. H3027 [11] He shall see H7200 of the travail H5999 of his soul, H5315 and shall be satisfied: H7646 by his knowledge H1847 shall my righteous H6662 servant H5650 justify H6663 many; H7227 for he shall bear H5445 their iniquities. H5771 [12] Therefore will I divide H2505 him a portion with the great, H7227 and he shall divide H2505 the spoil H7998 with H854 the strong; H6099 because he hath poured out H6168 his soul H5315 unto death: H4194 and he was numbered H4487 with H854 the transgressors; H6586 and he bare H5375 the sin H2399 of many, H7227 and made intercession H6293 for the transgressors. H6586
