15 So shall he sprinkle many nations; kingsshall shut their mouths because of him; for that which was not recounted to them shall they see, and that which they heard not shall they discern.

2 And he grew up before him as a sapling, and as a root out of a dry ground: he had no form nor majesty; and we saw him, and there was no sightliness, that we should desire him.

3 Despised and avoided of men; a man of pains, and one that knew sickness; and as one from whom faces are hid despised, and we esteemed him not.

4 Surely he bore- our sicknesses; and our pains, he supported them; and we, (on our part,) did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

5 And he was pierced for our rebellions, bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and in his stripes was there healing for us.
