7 Thus says the Lord,
wthe Redeemer of Israel and his Holy One,
xto one deeply despised, abhorred by the nation,
the servant of rulers:
y“Kings shall see and arise;
princes, and they shall prostrate themselves;
because of the Lord, who is faithful,
the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen you.”
3 kHe was despised and rejected1 by men,
a man of sorrows2 and acquainted with3 grief;4
and as one from whom men hide their faces5
he was despised, and lwe esteemed him not.
