Forsooth he was wounded for our wickednesses, he was defouled for our great trespasses; the learning of our peace was on him, and we be made whole by his wanness. (And he was wounded for our wickednesses, he was defiled for our great trespasses; he suffered what should have been our chastising, or our punishment, and we be healed, or made whole, by his scourgings.)

All we erred as sheep, each man bowed into his own way, and the Lord putted in him the wickedness of us all. (We have all wandered astray like sheep, each one turned to his own way, but the Lord put on him all of our wickednesses.)

He was offered, for he would, and he opened not his mouth; as a sheep he shall be led to slaying, and he shall be dumb as a lamb before him that clippeth it, and he shall not open his mouth. (He was offered up, and he bare it, and he did not open his mouth; like a sheep he was led to his killing, and he was as silent as a lamb before him who clippeth it, yea, he did open his mouth.)

But he was pierced(A) for our transgressions,(B)
    he was crushed(C) for our iniquities;

We all, like sheep, have gone astray,(H)
    each of us has turned to our own way;(I)
and the Lord has laid on him
    the iniquity(J) of us all.

He was oppressed(K) and afflicted,

he was led like a lamb(M) to the slaughter,(N)
    and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
    so he did not open his mouth.
