Isaiah 53:6-9

New International Version

⁶We all, like sheep, have gone astray,^(A)
each of us has turned to our own way;^(B)
and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity^(C) of us all.

⁷He was oppressed^(D) and afflicted,
    yet he did not open his mouth;^(E)
he was led like a lamb^(F) to the slaughter,^(G)
    and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
    so he did not open his mouth.
⁸By oppression^[a] and judgment^(H) he was taken away.
    Yet who of his generation protested?
For he was cut off from the land of the living;^(I)
    for the transgression^(J) of my people he was punished.^[b]
⁹He was assigned a grave with the wicked,^(K)
    and with the rich^(L) in his death,
though he had done no violence,^(M)
    nor was any deceit in his mouth.^(N)

The reason the Son of God^(J) appeared was to destroy the devil’s work.^(K)
