1 Who has believed our message 1 and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
2 He grew up before him like a tender shoot, 2 and like a root out of dry ground. 2 He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, 2 nothing in his appearance that we should desire him.
3 He was despised and rejected by men, 3 a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering. 3 Like one from whom men hide their faces 3 he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 Surely he took up our infirmities 4 and carried our sorrows, 4 yet we considered him stricken by God, 4 smitten by him, and afflicted.
5 But he was pierced for our transgressions, 5 he was crushed for our iniquities; 5 the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, 5 and by his wounds we are healed.
6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray, 6 each of us has turned to his own way; 6 and the Lord has laid on him 6 the iniquity of us all.
