Isaiah 53:3 In-Context
1
Who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?

4
Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted.
5
But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.
