Isaiah
Isaiah 53:4–5
4Surely He took up our infirmities
and carried our sorrows;b
yet we considered Him stricken,
struck down by God, and afflicted.
5But He was pierced for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him,
and by His stripes we are healed.c
