Isaiah

Isaiah 52:13–15

¹³Behold, My Servant will prosper;^e

He will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted.

¹⁴Just as many were appalled at Him^f—

His appearance was disfigured beyond that of any man,

and His form was marred beyond human likeness—

¹⁵so He will sprinkle^g many nations.

Kings will shut their mouths because of Him.

For they will see what they have not been told,

and they will understand what they have not heard.^h
