10 Yet the Lord was pleased(A) to crush Him severely.[a](B)
When[b] You make Him a restitution offering,(C)
He will see His seed, He will prolong His days,
and by His hand, the Lord’s pleasure will be accomplished.(D)
11 He will see it[c] out of His anguish,
and He will be satisfied with His knowledge.
My righteous(E) Servant(F) will justify many,(G)
and He will carry their iniquities.
12 Therefore I will give Him[d] the many as a portion,
and He will receive[e] the mighty as spoil,
because He submitted Himself to death,(H)
and was counted among the rebels;(I)
yet He bore the sin of many(J)
and interceded for the rebels.(K)

10 Yet it was the Lord’s will(A) to crush(B) him and cause him to suffer,(C)
    and though the Lord makes[a] his life an offering for sin,(D)
he will see his offspring(E) and prolong his days,
    and the will of the Lord will prosper(F) in his hand.
11 After he has suffered,(G)

by his knowledge[d] my righteous servant(I) will justify(J) many,
    and he will bear their iniquities.(K)
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,[e](L)

because he poured out his life unto death,(N)
    and was numbered with the transgressors.(O)
For he bore(P) the sin of many,(Q)
    and made intercession(R) for the transgressors.
