Isaiah 53:11-12

EasyEnglish Bible

‘My righteous servant will cause many people to be “not guilty”,
    because he will take the punishment for all their sins.
¹² So I will put him in a place of honour,
    as a great person deserves.
He will share the good things that powerful men receive
    when they have won a battle.
He deserves this, because he agreed to die as a sacrifice.
People thought that he himself was a sinner
    when he took away the sins of many people.
He prayed that God would forgive sinners.’
