Lyrics
1 Who hath believed our report?
and to whom is the arm of the LORD
revealed?
2 For he shall grow up before him
as a tender plant, and as a root
out of a dry ground: he hath no
form nor comeliness; and when we
shall see him, there is no
beauty that we should desire him.
3 He is despised and rejected of
men; a man of sorrows, and
acquainted with grief: and we hid
as it were our faces from
him; he was despised, and we
esteemed him not.
4 Surely he hath borne our griefs,
and carried our sorrows: yet we
did esteem him stricken, smitten
of God, and afflicted.
5 But he was wounded for
our transgressions, he was
bruised for our iniquities: the
chastisement of our peace was
upon him; and with his stripes we
are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone
astray; we have turned every one
to his own way; and the LORD hath
laid on him the iniquity of us
all.
7 He was oppressed, and he was
afflicted, yet he opened not his
mouth: he is brought as a lamb to
the slaughter, and as a sheep
before her shearers is dumb, so he
openeth not his mouth.
8 He was taken from prison and
from judgment: and who shall
declare his generation? for he was
cut off out of the land of the
living: for the transgression of
my people was he stricken.
9 And he made his grave with the
wicked, and with the rich in his
death; because he had done no
violence, neither was any
deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet it pleased the LORD to
bruise him; he hath put him
to grief: when thou shalt make his
soul an offering for sin, he shall
see his seed, he shall
prolong his days, and the
pleasure of the LORD shall prosper
in his hand.
11 He shall see of the travail of
his soul, and shall be
satisfied: by his knowledge shall
my righteous servant justify many;
for he shall bear their
iniquities.
12 Therefore will I divide him
a portion with the great, and
he shall divide the spoil with the
strong; because he hath poured out
his soul unto death: and he was
numbered with the transgressors;
and he bare the sin of many, and
made intercession for the
transgressors.
