Isaiah 53:1-10

Isaiah 53:1-10

[1] Who hath believed  our report?  and to whom is the arm  of the LORD  revealed?  [2] For he shall grow up  before  him as a tender plant,  and as a root  out of a dry  ground:  he hath no form  nor comeliness;  and when we shall see  him, there is no beauty  that we should desire  him. [3] He is despised  and rejected  of men;  of sorrows,  and acquainted  with grief:  and we hid as it were  our faces  from him; he was despised,  and we esteemed  [4] Surely  he hath borne  our griefs,  and carried  our sorrows:  yet we did esteem  him stricken,  smitten  of God,  and afflicted.  [5] But he was wounded  for our transgressions,  he was bruised  for our iniquities:  the chastisement  of our peace  was upon him; and with his stripes  we are healed.  [6] All we like sheep  have gone astray;  we have turned  every one  to his own way;  and the LORD  hath laid  on him the iniquity  of us all. [7] He was oppressed,  and he was afflicted,  yet he opened  not his mouth:  he is brought  as a lamb  to the slaughter,  and as a sheep  before  her shearers  is dumb,  so he openeth  not his mouth.  [8] He was taken  from prison  and from judgment:  and who shall declare  his generation?  for he was cut off  out of the land  of the living:  for the transgression  of my people  was he stricken.  [9] And he made  his grave  with the wicked,  and with the rich  in his death;  because he had done  no violence,  neither was any deceit  in his mouth.  [10] Yet it pleased  the LORD  to bruise  him; he hath put him to grief:  when thou shalt make  his soul  an offering for sin,  he shall see  his seed,  he shall prolong  his days,  and the pleasure  of the LORD  shall prosper  in his hand.
