^6 (A)In sacrifice and offering you have not delighted,
    but you have given me an open ^(B)ear.^[a]
Burnt offering and sin offering
    you have not required.
⁷ Then I said, “Behold, I have come;
    in the scroll of the book it is written ^(C)of me:
^8 (D)I delight to do your will, O my God;
    your law is ^(E)within my heart.”

⁹ I have told the glad news of deliverance^[b]
    in ^(F)the great congregation;
behold, I have not ^(G)restrained my lips,
    ^(H)as you know, O Lord.
¹⁰ I have not hidden your deliverance within my heart;
    I have spoken of your faithfulness and your salvation;
I have not concealed your steadfast love and your faithfulness
    from the great congregation.

¹¹ As for you, O Lord, you will not restrain
    your mercy from me;
your ^(I)steadfast love and your faithfulness will
    ever preserve me!
¹² For evils have ^(J)encompassed me
    beyond number;
my ^(K)iniquities have overtaken me,
    and I cannot ^(L)see;
they are ^(M)more than the hairs of my head;
    my heart ^(N)fails me.

^13 (O)Be pleased, O Lord, to ^(P)deliver me!
    O Lord, ^(Q)make haste to help me!
^14 (R)Let those be put to shame and disappointed altogether
    who seek to snatch away my life;
let those be ^(S)turned back and brought to dishonor
    who delight in my hurt!
¹⁵ Let those be appalled because of their shame
    who ^(T)say to me, “Aha, Aha!”

¹⁶ But may all who seek you
    rejoice and be glad in you;
may those who love your salvation
    ^(U)say continually, “Great is the Lord!”
¹⁷ As for me, I am ^(V)poor and needy,
    but ^(W)the Lord takes thought for me.
You are my help and my deliverer;
    do not delay, O my God!

^4 (G)Surely he has borne our griefs
    and carried our sorrows;
yet we esteemed him stricken,
    ^(H)smitten by God, and afflicted.
^5 (I)But he was pierced for our transgressions;
    he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
    ^(J)and with his wounds we are healed.
^6 (K)All we like sheep have gone astray;
    we have turned—every one—to his own way;
^(L)and the Lord has laid on him
    the iniquity of us all.

⁷ He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,
    ^(M)yet he opened not his mouth;
^(N)like a ^(O)lamb that is led to the slaughter,
    and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent,
    so he opened not his mouth.
⁸ By oppression and judgment he was taken away;
    and as for his generation, ^(P)who considered
that he was cut off out of the land of the living,
    stricken for the transgression of my people?
⁹ And they made his grave with the wicked
    ^(Q)and with a rich man in his death,
although ^(R)he had done no violence,
    and there was no deceit in his mouth.

¹⁰ Yet ^(S)it was the will of the Lord to crush him;
    he has put him to grief;^[g]
(T)when his soul makes^[h] an offering for guilt,
    he shall see his offspring; he shall prolong his days;
^(U)the will of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
¹¹ Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see^[i] and be satisfied;
by his knowledge shall ^(V)the righteous one, my servant,
    ^(W)make many to be accounted righteous,
    ^(X)and he shall bear their iniquities.
^12 (Y)Therefore I will divide him a portion with the many,^{[j]
    (Z)}and he shall divide the spoil with the strong,^[k]
because he poured out his soul to death
    and was numbered with the transgressors;
^(AA)yet he bore the sin of many,
    and makes intercession for the transgressors.
