from Biblica1Who has believed what we’ve been saying? Who has seen the LORD’s saving power?2His servant grew up like a tender young plant. He grew like a root coming up out of dry ground. He didn’t have any beauty or majesty that made us notice him. There wasn’t anything special about the way he looked that drew us to him.3People looked down on him. They didn’t accept him. He knew all about pain and suffering. He was like someone people turn their faces away from. We looked down on him. We didn’t have any respect for him.4He suffered the things we should have suffered. He took on himself the pain that should have been ours. But we thought God was punishing him. We thought God was wounding him and making him suffer.5But the servant was pierced because we had sinned. He was crushed because we had done what was evil. He was punished to make us whole again. His wounds have healed us.6All of us are like sheep. We have wandered away from God. All of us have turned to our own way. And the LORD has placed on his servant the sins of all of us.7He was treated badly and made to suffer. But he didn’t open his mouth. He was led away like a lamb to be killed. Sheep are silent while their wool is being cut off. In the same way, he didn’t open his mouth.8He was arrested and sentenced to death. Then he was taken away. He was cut off from this life. He was punished for the sins of my people. Who among those who were living at that time tried to stop what was happening?9He was given a grave with those who were evil. But his body was buried in the tomb of a rich man. He was killed even though he hadn’t harmed anyone. And he had never lied to anyone.10The LORD says, ‘It was my plan to crush him and cause him to suffer. I made his life an offering to pay for sin. But he will see all his children after him. In fact, he will continue to live. My plan will be brought about through him.11After 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.12So I will give him a place of honour 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.’

from Bulgarian Bible Society1Кой е повярвал в известието ни? И на кого се е открила мишцата ГОСПОДНЯ? (Isa 51:9; Joh 12:38; Ro 1:16; Ro 10:16; 1Co 1:18)2Защото израсна пред Него като клонка и като корен от суха земя; нямаше благообразие, нито приличие, за да Го гледаме, нито красота, за да Го желаем. (Isa 11:1; Isa 52:14; Mr 9:12)3Той беше презрян и отхвърлен от хората, човек на скърби и навикнал на печал; и както човек, от когото хората отвръщат лице, презрян беше и за нищо не Го счетохме. (Ps 22:6; Isa 49:7; Joh 1:10; Joh 1:11; Heb 4:15)4Той наистина понесе печалта ни и със скърбите ни се натовари; а ние Го счетохме за ударен, поразен от Бога и наскърбен. (Mt 8:17; Heb 9:28; 1Pe 2:24)5Но Той беше наранен поради нашите престъпления, беше бит поради нашите беззакония; върху Негодойде наказанието, донасящо нашия мир, и с Неговите рани ние се изцелихме. (Ro 4:25; 1Co 15:3; 1Pe 2:24; 1Pe 3:18)6Всички ние се заблудихме като овце, отбихме се всеки в своя път; и ГОСПОД възложи на Него беззаконието на всички ни. (Ps 119:176; 1Pe 2:25)7Той беше угнетяван, но смири Себе Си и не отвори устата Си; както агне, водено на клане, и както овца, която не издава глас пред стригачите си, така Той не отвори устата Си. (Mt 26:63; Mt 27:12; Mt 27:14; Mr 14:61; Mr 15:5; Ac 8:32; 1Pe 2:23)8Чрез угнетителен съд беше грабнат; а кой от Неговия род разсъждаваше, че беше изтръгнат отсред земята на живите поради престъплението на Моя народ, върху който трябваше да падне ударът? (Da 9:26)9И определиха гроба Му между злодеите, но след смъртта Му – при богатия; защото не беше извършил неправда, нито имаше измама в устата Му. (Mt 27:57; Mt 27:58; Mt 27:60; 1Pe 2:22; 1Jo 3:5)10Но ГОСПОД благоволи Той да бъде бит, предаде Го на печал; когато направиш душата Му принос за грях, ще види потомството, ще продължи дните Си и това, в което ГОСПОД благоволи, ще успее в ръката Му. (Ro 6:9; 2Co 5:21; Eph 1:5; Eph 1:9; 2Th 1:11; 1Pe 2:24)11Ще види плодовете от труда на душата Си и ще се насити; праведният Ми Слуга ще оправдае мнозина чрез знанието им за Него и Той ще се натовари с беззаконията им. (Isa 42:1; Isa 49:3; Isa 53:4; Isa 53:5; Joh 17:3; Ro 5:18; Ro 5:19; 2Pe 1:3; 1Jo 2:1)12Затова ще Му определя дял между великите и Той ще раздели плячка със силните, защото изложи душата Си на смърт и към престъпници беше причислен, и защото взе на Себе Си греховете на мнозина и ходатайства за престъпниците. (Ps 2:8; Mr 15:28; Lu 22:37; Lu 23:34; Ro 8:34; Php 2:9; Col 2:15; Heb 7:25; Heb 9:24; 1Jo 2:1)
