    11He shall see the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge, my righteous servant shall justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.

    12Therefore I will divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

    1Who has believed our report? And to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?

    2For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of dry ground: he has no form or beauty; and when we see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.

    3He is despised and rejected by men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid, as it were, our faces from him; he was despised, and we did not esteem him.

    4Surely he has borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we considered him stricken, struck by God, and afflicted.

    5But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement for our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

    6All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned, every one, to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
