Isaiah 53:10-12 LXX 10And the Lord will cleanse him from the plague: if you give for sin, our soul will be seen as a seed of long life; and the Lord will take away from the pain of his soul, 11To show him light and create understanding, to justify the righteous one who serves many, and he will open their sins. 12Therefore he will inherit many, and he will share the spoil of the strong; because his soul was delivered up to death, and he was counted with the transgressors, and he himself bore the sin of many, and was delivered up for their iniquities. I like to read the septuagint sometimes. It definitely gets worded a little different. And this is an interesting passage about bringing the plague of sin to an end on the cross. 10καὶ Κύριος βούλεται καθαρίσαι αὐτὸν τῆς πληγῆς· ἐὰν δῶτε περὶ ἁμαρτίας, ἡ ψυχὴ ἡμῶν ὄψεται σπέρμα μακρόβιον· καὶ βούλεται Κύριος ἀφελεῖν ἀπὸ τοῦ πόνου τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτοῦ, 11δεῖξαι αὐτῷ φῶς καὶ πλάσαι τῇ συνέσει, δικαιῶσαι δίκαιον εὖ δουλεύοντα πολλοῖς, καὶ τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν αὐτὸς ἀνοίσει. 12διὰ τοῦτο αὐτὸς κληρονομήσει πολλούς, καὶ τῶν ἰσχυρῶν μεριεῖ σκῦλα· ἀνθ᾽ ὧν παρεδόθη εἰς θάνατον ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἀνόμοις ἐλογίσθη, καὶ αὐτὸς ἁμαρτίας πολλῶν ἀνήνεγκεν, καὶ διὰ τὰς ἀνομίας αὐτῶν παρεδόθη.
