53:4 But he lifted up our illnesses,

he carried our pain; ¹ 

even though we thought he was being punished,

attacked by God, and afflicted for something he had done. ² 

53:5 He was wounded because of ³  our rebellious deeds,

crushed because of our sins;

he endured punishment that made us well; ⁴ 

because of his wounds we have been healed. ⁵ 

53:6 All of us had wandered off like sheep;

each of us had strayed off on his own path,

but the Lord caused the sin of all of us to attack him. ⁶
