1 Who can believe
what we have heard? Upon whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
2
For he has grown by His favor, like a tree crown, like a tree trunk out of
arid ground. He had no form or beauty, that we should look at him; No charm
that we should find him pleasing. 3
He was despised - shunned by men, a man of suffering,
familiar
with disease. As one who had hid his face from us, he was despised,
we held him of no account. 4 Yet it was our sickness he was
bearing, our suffering that he endured. We accounted him as plagued,
smitten and afflicted by God;
5
But he was wounded because of our sins,
crushed because of our iniquities. He bore the chastisement that made us whole, and by his bruises we were
healed. 6
We all went astray like sheep, each going his own way; and the Lord visited
upon him the guilt of all of us."

1
Who
has believed our message? To whom will the Lord reveal his saving power? 2
My
servant grew up in the Lord's presence like a tender shoot, spouting from a
root in dry and sterile ground. There was nothing beautiful or majestic
about his appearance, nothing to attract us to him. 3
He was despised and rejected - a man of sorrows, acquainted
with bitterest grief. We turned our backs on him and looked the other way
when he went by. He was despised and we did not care. 4
Yet it was our weakness he carried; it was our sorrows
that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from
God for his own sins!
5
But he was wounded and crushed for our sins. He was
beaten that we might have peace. He was whipped, and we were healed!
6
All of us have strayed away like sheep. We have left
God's paths to follow our own. Yet
the Lord laid on him the guilt and sins
of us all.

10
But the Lord chose to crush him by disease, that if he made himself
an
offering for guilt, he might see offspring and have a long life, and that
though
him the Lord's purpose might prosper.
|
10
But it was the Lord's good plan to crush him and fill him with grief. Yet
when his life is
made an offering for
sin, he will have a multitude of
children, many heirs. He will enjoy a long life, and
the Lord's plan will
prosper in his hands.

1
But a shoot shall grow out of the stump of Jesse, a twig shall sprout from
his stock. 2 The Spirit of the Lord shall alight upon him: a
spirit of wisdom and insight, a spirit of counsel and valor, a spirit of
devotion and reverence for the Lord |
1
Out of the stump of David's family will grow a shoot - yes a new Branch
bearing fruit from the old root. 2
And the Spirit of the Lord will
rest on him the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel
and might, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord. He will
delight in obeying the Lord. He will never judge by appearance, false evidence,
or hearsay.
