Isaiah 53:10-12
EasyEnglish Bible
Isaiah 53:10-12
EasyEnglish Bible
10 But it was the Lord who chose to hurt his servant.
He caused his servant to receive much pain.
His servant died to remove people's guilt.
As a result, God will bless him with many descendants,
and he will have a long life.
What the Lord wants will happen,
because of what his servant does.
11 When God's servant sees the result of his pain,
he will understand what he has done.
And he will be happy.
The Lord says,
‘My righteous servant will cause many people to be “not guilty”,
because he will take the punishment for all their sins.
12 So I will put him in a place of honour,
as a great person deserves.
He will share the good things that powerful men receive
when they have won a battle.
He deserves this, because he agreed to die as a sacrifice.
People thought that he himself was a sinner
when he took away the sins of many people.
He prayed that God would forgive sinners.’

Isaiah 53:10-12
New International Version
10 Yet it was the Lord’s will(A) to crush(B) him and cause him to suffer,(C)
and though the Lord makes[a] his life an offering for sin,(D)
he will see his offspring(E) and prolong his days,
and the will of the Lord will prosper(F) in his hand.
11 After he has suffered,(G)
he will see the light(H) of life[b] and be satisfied[c];
by his knowledge[d] my righteous servant(I) will justify(J) many,
and he will bear their iniquities.(K)
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,[e](L)
and he will divide the spoils(M) with the strong,[f]
because he poured out his life unto death,(N)
and was numbered with the transgressors.(O)
For he bore(P) the sin of many,(Q)
and made intercession(R) for the transgressors.
