11 After he has suffered, he will see the light of life.
    And he will be satisfied.
My godly servant will make many people godly
    because of what he will accomplish.
    He will be punished for their sins.
12 So I will give him a place of honor among those who are great.
    He will be rewarded just like others who win the battle.
That’s because he was willing to give his life as a sacrifice.
    He was counted among those who had committed crimes.
He took the sins of many people on himself.
    And he gave his life for those who had done what is wrong.”

11 After he has suffered,(A)
    he will see the light(B) of life[a] and be satisfied[b];
by his knowledge[c] my righteous servant(C) will justify(D) many,
    and he will bear their iniquities.(E)
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,[d](F)
    and he will divide the spoils(G) with the strong,[e]
because he poured out his life unto death,(H)
    and was numbered with the transgressors.(I)
For he bore(J) the sin of many,(K)
    and made intercession(L) for the transgressors.
