But it was our sins that caused his wounds.
    The bad things that we had done crushed him.
The punishment that he received
    has brought peace to us.
The wounds that he received
    have made us well.
We have all turned away,
    like sheep that take the wrong path.
Each of us has turned to follow our own way.
But the Lord has taken all our sins
    and put the punishment on him.
People were cruel to him,
    and he received much pain.
But he did not say anything to complain.
He was like a lamb that people were leading away to kill.
He was like a sheep when they are cutting off its wool,
    but it makes no noise.
In the same way, he did not say anything.

    and by his wounds(F) we are healed.(G)
We all, like sheep, have gone astray,(H)
    each of us has turned to our own way;(I)
and the Lord has laid on him
    the iniquity(J) of us all.

He was oppressed(K) and afflicted,
    yet he did not open his mouth;(L)
he was led like a lamb(M) to the slaughter,(N)
    and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
    so he did not open his mouth.
