3 He was despised and rejected by people,one who experienced pain and was acquainted with illness;people hid their faces from him;he was despised, and we considered him insignificant.
4 But he lifted up our illnesses,he carried our pain;even though we thought he was being punished,attacked by God, and afflicted for something he had done.
5 He was wounded because of our rebellious deeds,crushed because of our sins;he endured punishment that made us well;because of his wounds we have been healed.
6 All of us had wandered off like sheep;each of us had strayed off on his own path,but the Lord caused the sin of all of us to attack him.
7 He was treated harshly and afflicted,but he did not even open his mouth.Like a lamb led to the slaughtering block,like a sheep silent before her shearers,he did not even open his mouth.
8 He was led away after an unjust trial – but who even cared?Indeed, he was cut off from the land of the living;because of the rebellion of his own people he was wounded.
9 They intended to bury him with criminals,but he ended up in a rich man’s tomb,because he had committed no violent deeds,nor had he spoken deceitfully.
