Isaiah 53

1 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?John 12:38 John 12:38John 12:38, Rom 10:16Romans 10:16

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 (Isaiah 49:7; Matthew 13:55; Mark 6:3; John 6:42) 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 (Job 30:10; Isaiah 50:6; Matthew 26:67; Matthew 27:30; Luke 18:32) him not.

4 Surely (Matthew 8:17) he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows:Matthew 8:17 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 (1 Peter 2:24) his stripes (Matthew 27:26; Mark 15:15; John 19:1) we are healed.1 Peter 2:24

6 All we like1 Peter 2:25 sheep (Jeremiah 50:6; Jeremiah 50:17; Matthew 10:6; Matthew 15:24) 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 (Matthew 26:63; Matthew 27:12; John 19:9; 1 Peter 2:23) not his mouth: he is (Acts 8:32) brought as a lamb (Genesis 22:8; John 1:29; John 19:14; 1 Corinthians 5:7; 1 Peter 1:19; Revelation 5:6) to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.Acts 8:32

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:Acts 8:33 for the transgression of my people was he stricken. Acts 8:33

9 And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich (Matthew 27:60) in his death; because (1 Peter 2:22) he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.1 Peter 2:22

10 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering (Matthew 20:28; 1 Timothy 2:6; Titus 2:14; 1 Peter 1:18) for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.

11 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.

12 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; Mark 15:28 and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors. Mark 15:28 Luke 22:37Luke 22:37
