Isaiah 53:3-9
King James Version
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.

Isaiah 53:3-9
New International Version
3 He was despised and rejected by mankind,
a man of suffering,(A) and familiar with pain.(B)
Like one from whom people hide(C) their faces
he was despised,(D) and we held him in low esteem.
4 Surely he took up our pain
and bore our suffering,(E)
yet we considered him punished by God,(F)
stricken by him, and afflicted.(G)
5 But he was pierced(H) for our transgressions,(I)
he was crushed(J) for our iniquities;
the punishment(K) that brought us peace(L) was on him,
and by his wounds(M) we are healed.(N)
6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray,(O)
each of us has turned to our own way;(P)
and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity(Q) of us all.
7 He was oppressed(R) and afflicted,
yet he did not open his mouth;(S)
he was led like a lamb(T) to the slaughter,(U)
and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
so he did not open his mouth.
8 By oppression[a] and judgment(V) he was taken away.
Yet who of his generation protested?
For he was cut off from the land of the living;(W)
for the transgression(X) of my people he was punished.[b]
9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked,(Y)
and with the rich(Z) in his death,
though he had done no violence,(AA)
nor was any deceit in his mouth.(AB)
