³⁵ And the people were looking on. And the rulers made sport of him, saying, He was a saviour of others; let him do something for himself, if he is the Christ, the man of God's selection.

¹ See my servant, whom I am supporting, my loved one, in whom I take delight: I have put my spirit on him; he will give the knowledge of the true God to the nations.

¹⁷ I am able to see all my bones; their looks are fixed on me:

⁴ To whom you come, as to a living stone, not honoured by men, but of great and special value to God;

¹⁴ And the Pharisees, who had a great love of money, hearing these things, were making sport of him.

¹⁸ See my servant, the man of my selection, my loved one in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my Spirit on him, and he will make my decision clear to the Gentiles.

¹⁰ And I will send down on the family of David and on the people of Jerusalem the spirit of grace and of prayer; and their eyes will be turned to the one who was wounded by their hands: and they will be weeping for him as for an only son, and their grief for him will be bitter, like the grief of one sorrowing for his oldest son.

¹⁷ And a voice came out of heaven, saying, This is my dearly loved Son, with whom I am well pleased.

³⁸ Then two thieves were put on crosses with him, one on the right and one on the left.

³⁹ And those who went by said bitter words to him, shaking their heads and saying,

⁴⁰ You who would give the Temple to destruction and put it up again in three days, get yourself free: if you are the Son of God, come down from the cross.

⁴¹ In the same way, the chief priests, making sport of him, with the scribes and those in authority, said,

⁴² A saviour of others, he has no salvation for himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will have faith in him.

⁴³ He put his faith in God; let God be his saviour now, if he will have him; for he said, I am the Son of God.

²⁹ And those who went by made sport of him, shaking their heads, and saying, Ha! you who give the Temple to destruction, and put it up again in three days,

³⁰ Keep yourself from death, and come down from the cross.

³¹ In the same way the chief priests, laughing at him among themselves with the scribes, said, A saviour of others, he has no salvation for himself.

³² Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, so that we may see and have belief. And those who were put on crosses with him said evil things against him.

⁶⁷ If you are the Christ, say so. But he said, If I say so you will not have belief;

⁶⁸ And if I put a question to you, you will not give an answer.

⁶⁹ But in the future the Son of man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.

⁷⁰ And they all said, Are you then the Son of God? and he said, You say that I am.

¹⁴ I have become the sport of all the peoples; I am their song all the day.

³ Men made sport of him, turning away from him; he was a man of sorrows, marked by disease; and like one from whom men's faces are turned away, he was looked down on, and we put no value on him.

² O you sons of men, how long will you go on turning my glory into shame? how long will you give your love to foolish things, going after what is false? (Selah.)

⁶ But I am a worm and not a man; cursed by men, and looked down on by the people.

⁷ I am laughed at by all those who see me: pushing out their lips and shaking their heads they say,

⁸ He put his faith in the Lord; let the Lord be his saviour now: let the Lord be his saviour, because he had delight in him.

¹² A great herd of oxen is round me: I am shut in by the strong oxen of Bashan.

¹³ I saw their mouths wide open, like lions crying after food.

¹⁵ But they took pleasure in my trouble, and came together, yes, low persons came together against me without my knowledge; they never came to an end of wounding me.

¹⁹ Do not let my haters be glad over me falsely; let not those who are against me without cause make sport of me.

²⁰ For they do not say words of peace; in their deceit they are designing evil things against the quiet ones in the land.

²¹ Their mouths were open wide against me, and they said, Aha, aha, our eyes have seen it.

²² You have seen this, O Lord; be not unmoved: O Lord, be not far from me.

²³ Be awake, O Lord, be moved to take up my cause, my God and my Lord.

²⁴ Be my judge, O Lord my God, in your righteousness; do not let them be glad over me.

²⁵ Let them not say in their hearts, So we will have it: let them not say, We have put an end to him.

⁷ I have been wounded with sharp words because of you; my face has been covered with shame.

⁸ I have become strange to my brothers, and like a man from a far country to my mother's children.

⁹ I am on fire with passion for your house; and the hard things which are said about you have come on me.

¹⁰ My bitter weeping, and my going without food, were turned to my shame.

¹¹ When I put on the clothing of grief, they said evil of me.

¹² I am a cause of wonder to those in authority; a song to those who are given to strong drink.

²⁶ Because they are cruel to him against whom your hand is turned; they make bitter the grief of him who is wounded by you.

¹¹ Saying, God has given him up; go after him and take him, for he has no helper.

⁷ The Lord who takes up Israel's cause, even his Holy One, says to him whom men make sport of, who is hated by the nations, a servant of rulers: Kings will see and get up from their places, and chiefs will give worship: because of the Lord who keeps faith; even the Holy One of Israel who has taken you for himself.

¹⁹ Saying to one another, See, here comes this dreamer.

²⁰ Let us now put him to death and put his body into one of these holes, and we will say, An evil beast has put him to death: then we will see what becomes of his dreams.
