Isaiah

Isaiah 53:11–12

¹¹After the anguish of His soul,

He will see the light of life^h and be satisfied.

By His knowledge My righteous Servant will justify many,

and He will bear their iniquities.

¹²Therefore I will allot Him a portion with the great,ⁱ

and He will divide the spoils with the strong,^j

because He has poured out His life unto death,

and He was numbered with the transgressors.^k

Yet He bore the sin of many

and made intercession for the transgressors.
