Verse YLT Young's Literal Translation KJV King James Version
Who hath given credence to that which we heard ? And the arm of Jehovah, On whom hath it been revealed?
Who hath believed our report ? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?
Yea, he cometh up as a tender plant before Him , And as a root out of a dry land, He hath no form , nor honour, when we observe him, Nor appearance, when we desire him.
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.
He is despised , and left of men , A man of pains , and acquainted with sickness, And as one hiding the face from us, He is despised, and we esteemed him not.
He is despised and rejected of men ; a man of sorrows , and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
Surely our sicknesses he hath borne , And our pains -- he hath carried them , And we -- we have esteemed him plagued , Smitten of God, and afflicted.
Surely he hath borne our griefs , and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken , smitten of God, and afflicted.
And he is pierced for our transgressions, Bruised for our iniquities , The chastisement of our peace `is' on him , And by his bruise there is healing to us .
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 .
All of us like sheep have wandered, Each to his own way we have turned, And Jehovah hath caused to meet on him , The punishment of us all.
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.
It hath been exacted , and he hath answered , And he openeth not his mouth , As a lamb to the slaughter he is brought , And as a sheep before its shearers is dumb, And he openeth not his mouth.
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.
By restraint and by judgment he hath been taken , And of his generation who doth meditate, That he hath been cut off from the land of the living ? By the transgression of My people he is plagued,
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.
And it appointeth with the wicked his grave , And with the rich `are' his high places, Because he hath done no violence, Nor `is' deceit in his mouth.
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.
And Jehovah hath delighted to bruise him , He hath made him sick, If his soul doth make an offering for guilt , He seeth seed -- he prolongeth days, And the pleasure of Jehovah in his hand doth prosper .
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.
Of the labour of his soul he seeth -- he is satisfied , Through his knowledge give righteousness Doth the righteous one, My servant , to many , And their iniquities he doth bear.
He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many ; for he shall bear their iniquities .
Therefore I give a portion to him among the many , And with the mighty he apportioneth spoil , Because that he exposed to death his soul , And with transgressors he was numbered , And he the sin of many hath borne , And for transgressors he intercedeth .
Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great , and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
