Isaiah 53:5 · American Standard Version

Isaiah 53:5 in context

  1. 3He was despised
    and rejected by men,
    a man of suffering
    and acquainted with disease.
    He was despised as one from whom men hide their face;
    and we didn’t respect him.
  2. 4Surely he has borne our sickness
    and carried our suffering;
    yet we considered him plagued,
    struck by God, and afflicted.
  3. 5But he was pierced for our transgressions.
    He was crushed for our iniquities.
    The punishment that brought our peace was on him;
    and by his wounds we are healed.
  4. 6All we like sheep have gone astray.
    Everyone has turned to his own way;
    and Yahweh has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
  5. 7He was oppressed,
    yet when he was afflicted he didn’t open his mouth.
    As a lamb that is led to the slaughter,
    and as a sheep that before its shearers is silent,
    so he didn’t open his mouth.
