Isaiah 53:11-12
The Message
Isaiah 53:11-12
The Message
11-12 Out of that terrible travail of soul,
he’ll see that it’s worth it and be glad he did it.
Through what he experienced, my righteous one, my servant,
will make many “righteous ones,”
as he himself carries the burden of their sins.
Therefore I’ll reward him extravagantly—
the best of everything, the highest honors—
Because he looked death in the face and didn’t flinch,
because he embraced the company of the lowest.
He took on his own shoulders the sin of the many,
he took up the cause of all the black sheep.
Isaiah 53:11-12
New International Version
Isaiah 53:11-12
New International Version
11 After he has suffered,(A)
he will see the light(B) of life[a] and be satisfied[b];
by his knowledge[c] my righteous servant(C) will justify(D) many,
and he will bear their iniquities.(E)
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,[d](F)
and he will divide the spoils(G) with the strong,[e]
because he poured out his life unto death,(H)
and was numbered with the transgressors.(I)
For he bore(J) the sin of many,(K)
and made intercession(L) for the transgressors.
