Isaiah 53
Bible in Basic English (BBE)
5 Ref But it was for our sins he was wounded, and for our evil doings he was crushed: he took the punishment by which we have peace, and by his wounds we are made well.
6 Ref We all went wandering like sheep; going every one of us after his desire; and the Lord put on him the punishment of us all.
7 Ref Men were cruel to him, but he was gentle and quiet; as a lamb taken to its death, and as a sheep before those who take her wool makes no sound, so he said not a word.
8 Ref They took away from him help and right, and who gave a thought to his fate? for he was cut off from the land of the living: he came to his death for the sin of my people.
