11 He will suffer many things in his soul.
    But then he will see life and be satisfied.
My good servant will make many people right with God.
    He carried away their sins.
12 For this reason I will make him a great man among people.
    He will share in all things with those who are strong.

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.
