Isaiah 53:11-12
Contemporary English Version
Isaiah 53:11-12
Contemporary English Version
11 By suffering, the servant
will learn the true meaning
of obeying the Lord.
Although he is innocent,
he will take the punishment
for the sins of others,
so that many of them
will no longer be guilty.
12 (A) The Lord will reward him
with honor and power
for sacrificing his life.
Others thought he was a sinner,
but he suffered for our sins
and asked God to forgive us.
Isaiah 53:11-12
New International Version
Isaiah 53:11-12
New International Version
11 After he has suffered,(A)
he will see the light(B) of life[a] and be satisfied[b];
by his knowledge[c] my righteous servant(C) will justify(D) many,
and he will bear their iniquities.(E)
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,[d](F)
and he will divide the spoils(G) with the strong,[e]
because he poured out his life unto death,(H)
and was numbered with the transgressors.(I)
For he bore(J) the sin of many,(K)
and made intercession(L) for the transgressors.
