Isaiah 52:14-15
The Message
Isaiah 52:14-15
The Message
It Was Our Pains He Carried
13-15 “Just watch my servant blossom!
Exalted, tall, head and shoulders above the crowd!
But he didn’t begin that way.
At first everyone was appalled.
He didn’t even look human—
a ruined face, disfigured past recognition.
Nations all over the world will be in awe, taken aback,
kings shocked into silence when they see him.
For what was unheard of they’ll see with their own eyes,
what was unthinkable they’ll have right before them.”
Isaiah 52:14-15
New International Version
Isaiah 52:14-15
New International Version
14 Just as there were many who were appalled(A) at him[a]—
his appearance was so disfigured(B) beyond that of any human being
and his form marred beyond human likeness(C)—
15 so he will sprinkle(D) many nations,[b]
and kings(E) will shut their mouths(F) because of him.
For what they were not told, they will see,
and what they have not heard, they will understand.(G)
