Daily Scripture:
Isaiah 53:3-10
He was despised and rejected by men,
a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief;
and as one from whom men hide their faces
he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 Surely he has borne our griefs
and carried our sorrows;
yet we esteemed him stricken,
smitten by God, and afflicted.
5 But he was pierced for our transgressions;
he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
and with his wounds we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned—every one—to his own way;
and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,
yet he opened not his mouth;
like a 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, 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
and with a rich man in his death,
although he had done no violence,
and there was no deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet it was the will of the Lord to crush him;
he has put him to grief;
when his soul makes an offering for guilt,
he shall see his offspring; he shall prolong his days;
the will of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.

每日經文：
賽 53:3-10
3 他被藐視，被人厭棄，多受痛苦，常經憂患。他被藐視，好像被人掩面不看的一樣，我們也不尊重他。4 他誠然擔當我們的憂患，背負我們的痛苦，我們卻以為他受責罰，被神擊打苦待了。 5 哪知他為我們的過犯受害，為我們的罪孽壓傷。因他受的刑罰我們得平安，因他受的鞭傷我們得醫治。 6 我們都如羊走迷，各人偏行己路，耶和華使我們眾人的罪孽都歸在他身上。7 他被欺壓，在受苦的時候卻不開口。 他像羊羔被牽到宰殺之地，又像羊在剪毛的人手下無聲，他也是這樣不開口。 8 因受欺壓和審判，他被奪去，至於他同世的人，誰想他受鞭打，從活人之地被剪除，是因我百姓的罪過呢？ 9 他雖然未行強暴，口中也沒有詭詐，人還使他與惡人同埋，誰知死的時候與財主同葬。10 耶和華卻定意將他壓傷，使他受痛苦。耶和華以他為贖罪祭 ，他必看見後裔，並且延長年日，耶和華所喜悅的事必在他手中亨通。
