1 Who has believed our message

and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?

2 He grew up before him like a tender shoot,

and like a root out of dry ground.

He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him,

nothing in his appearance that we should desire him.

3 He was despised and rejected by mankind,

a man of suffering, and familiar with pain.

Like one from whom people hide their faces

he was despised, and we held him in low esteem.

4 Surely he took up our pain

and bore our suffering,

yet we considered him punished by God,

stricken by him, and afflicted.

5 But he was pierced for our transgressions,

he was crushed for our iniquities;

the punishment that brought us peace was on him,

and by his wounds we are healed.

6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray,

each of us has turned to our own way;

and the Lord has laid on him

the iniquity of us all.

7 He was oppressed and afflicted,

yet he did not open his mouth;

he was led like a lamb to the slaughter,

and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,

so he did not open his mouth.

8 By oppression*53:8 Or From arrest and judgment he was taken away.

Yet who of his generation protested?

For he was cut off from the land of the living;

for the transgression of my people he was punished.*53:8 Or generation considered / that he was cut off from the land of the living, / that he was punished for the transgression of my people?

9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked,

and with the rich in his death,

though he had done no violence,

nor was any deceit in his mouth.

10 Yet it was the Lord’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer,

and though the Lord makes*53:10 Hebrew though you make his life an offering for sin,

he will see his offspring and prolong his days,

and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand.

11 After he has suffered,

he will see the light of life*53:11 Dead Sea Scrolls (see also Septuagint); Masoretic Text does not have the light of life. and be satisfied*53:11 Or (with Masoretic Text) 11 He will see the fruit of his suffering / and will be satisfied;

by his knowledge*53:11 Or by knowledge of him my righteous servant will justify many,

and he will bear their iniquities.

12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,*53:12 Or many

and he will divide the spoils with the strong,*53:12 Or numerous

because he poured out his life unto death,

and was numbered with the transgressors.

For he bore the sin of many,

and made intercession for the transgressors.

1 Quem deu crédito à nossa pregação?

E a quem se manifestou o braço

do Senhor?

2 Porque foi subindo

como renovo perante ele,

e como raiz de uma terra seca;

não tinha beleza

nem formosura e,

olhando nós para ele,

não havia boa aparência nele,

para que o desejássemos.

3 Era desprezado,

e o mais rejeitado entre os homens,

homem de dores,

e experimentado nos sofrimentos;

e, como um

de quem os homens escondiam o rosto,

era desprezado,

e não fizemos dele caso algum.

4 Verdadeiramente ele tomou

sobre si as nossas enfermidades,

e as nossas dores levou

sobre si;

e nós o reputávamos por aflito,

ferido de Deus, e oprimido.

5 Mas ele foi ferido por causa

das nossas transgressões,

e moído por causa

das nossas iniquidades;

o castigo que

nos traz a paz estava

sobre ele,

e pelas suas pisaduras fomos sarados.

6 Todos nós andávamos desgarrados

como ovelhas;

cada um se desviava pelo seu caminho;

mas o Senhor fez cair

sobre ele a iniquidade

de nós todos.

7 Ele foi oprimido e afligido,

mas não abriu a sua boca;

como um cordeiro foi levado

ao matadouro,

e como a ovelha muda perante os seus tosquiadores,

assim ele

não abriu a sua boca.

8 Da opressão e do juízo foi tirado;

e quem contará o tempo

da sua vida? Porquanto foi cortado

da terra dos viventes;

pela transgressão

do meu povo

ele foi

atingido.

9 E puseram a sua sepultura

com os ímpios,

e com o rico na sua morte;

ainda

que nunca cometeu injustiça,

nem houve engano

na sua boca.

10 Todavia, ao Senhor agradou moê-lo,

fazendo-o enfermar;

quando a sua alma se puser por expiação

do pecado,

verá a sua posteridade,

prolongará os seus dias;

e o bom prazer

do Senhor prosperará

na sua mão.

11 Ele verá o fruto

do trabalho da sua alma,

e ficará satisfeito;

com o seu conhecimento o meu servo,

o justo, justificará a muitos;

porque as

iniquidades deles levará

sobre si.

12 Por isso lhe darei a parte

de muitos,

e com os poderosos repartirá ele o despojo;

porquanto derramou a sua alma

na morte,

e foi contado com os transgressores;

mas ele levou

sobre si o pecado

de muitos,

e intercedeu

pelos transgressores.
