  • Isa 53:2-9 : 2 He grew up before him like a tender shoot, and like a root out of dry ground. He had no form or majesty to attract us to him, and no appearance that we should desire him. 3 He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. Like one from whom people hide their faces, he was despised, and we did not esteem him. 4 Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted. 5 But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds, we are healed. 6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray; each of us has turned to our own way, and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. 7 He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; he was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth. 8 By oppression and judgment, he was taken away. Yet who of his generation protested? For he was cut off from the land of the living; for the transgression of my people, he was punished. 9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death, though he had done no violence, nor was any deceit in his mouth. 10 Yet it was the Lord's will to crush him and cause him to suffer. When you make his life an offering for sin, he will see his offspring and prolong his days, and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand. 11 After his suffering, he will see the result and be satisfied. By his knowledge, my righteous servant will justify many, and he will bear their iniquities. 12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great, and he will divide the spoils with the strong, because he poured out his life unto death and was numbered with the transgressors. He bore the sin of many and made intercession for the transgressors.
  • Isa 52:13-15 : 13 Behold, my servant will act wisely; he will be raised up, lifted high, and greatly exalted. 14 Just as many were appalled at you—his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any man, and his form marred beyond human likeness— 15 so he will startle many nations, and kings will shut their mouths because of him.

I will preserve you and make you a covenant to the people to restore the land and to distribute its desolate inheritances.' 9 To say to the captives, 'Come out,' and to those in darkness, 'Show yourselves.' They will feed along the roads and find pasture on every barren hill. 10 They will neither hunger nor thirst, nor will the scorching heat or sun strike them down. For He who has compassion on them will guide them, and He will lead them beside springs of water.
