1 Who would have had faith in the word which has come to our ears, and to whom had the arm of the Lord been unveiled?2 For his growth was like that of a delicate plant before him, and like a root out of a dry place: he had no grace of form, to give us pleasure;3 Men made sport of him, turning away from him; he was a man of sorrows, marked by disease; and like one from whom men's faces are turned away, he was looked down on, and we put no value on him.4 But it was our pain he took, and our diseases were put on him: while to us he seemed as one diseased, on whom God's punishment had come.5 But it was for our sins he was wounded, and for our evil doings he was crushed: he took the punishment by which we have peace, and by his wounds we are made well.6 We all went wandering like sheep; going every one of us after his desire; and the Lord put on him the punishment of us all.7 Men were cruel to him, but he was gentle and quiet; as a lamb taken to its death, and as a sheep before those who take her wool makes no sound, so he said not a word.8 They took away from him help and right, and who gave a thought to his fate? for he was cut off from the land of the living: he came to his death for the sin of my people.9 And they put his body into the earth with sinners, and his last resting-place was with the evil-doers, though he had done no wrong, and no deceit was in his mouth.10 And the Lord was pleased ... see a seed, long life, ... will do well in his hand. ...11 ... made clear his righteousness before men ... had taken their sins on himself.12 For this cause he will have a heritage with the great, and he will have a part in the goods of war with the strong, because he gave up his life, and was numbered with the evil-doers; taking on himself the sins of the people, and making prayer for the wrongdoers.

1 [Quis credidit auditui nostro ?et brachium Domini cui revelatum est ?2 Et ascendet sicut virgultum coram eo,et sicut radix de terra sitienti.Non est species ei, neque decor,et vidimus eum,et non erat aspectus, et desideravimus eum :3 despectum, et novissimum virorum,virum dolorum, et scientem infirmitatem,et quasi absconditus vultus ejus et despectus,unde nec reputavimus eum.4 Vere languores nostros ipse tulit,et dolores nostros ipse portavit ;et nos putavimus eum quasi leprosum,et percussum a Deo, et humiliatum.5 Ipse autem vulneratus est propter iniquitates nostras ;attritus est propter scelera nostra :disciplina pacis nostr super eum,et livore ejus sanati sumus.6 Omnes nos quasi oves erravimus,unusquisque in viam suam declinavit :et posuit Dominus in eoiniquitatem omnium nostrum.7 Oblatus est quia ipse voluit,et non aperuit os suum ;sicut ovis ad occisionem ducetur,et quasi agnus coram tondente se obmutescet,et non aperiet os suum.8 De angustia, et de judicio sublatus est.Generationem ejus quis enarrabit ?quia abscissus est de terra viventium :propter scelus populi mei percussi eum.9 Et dabit impios pro sepultura,et divitem pro morte sua,eo quod iniquitatem non fecerit,neque dolus fuerit in ore ejus.10 Et Dominus voluit conterere eum in infirmitate.Si posuerit pro peccato animam suam,videbit semen longvum,et voluntas Domini in manu ejus dirigetur.11 Pro eo quod laboravit anima ejus,videbit et saturabitur.In scientia sua justificabitipse justus servus meus multos,et iniquitates eorum ipse portabit.12 Ideo dispertiam ei plurimos,et fortium dividet spolia,pro eo quod tradidit in mortem animam suam,et cum sceleratis reputatus est,et ipse peccata multorum tulit,et pro transgressoribus rogavit.]
