Isaiah · Chapter 53
Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) revealed?
For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him,
there is no beauty that we should desire him.
He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were
our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of Elohim, and afflicted.
But he
was wounded for our transgressions,
he was
bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace
was
upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither
was any deceit in his mouth.
Yet it pleased 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) to bruise him; he hath put
him to grief: when thou shalt make his nephesh an offering for sin, he shall see
his seed, he shall prolong
his days, and the pleasure of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) shall prosper in his hand.
He shall see of the travail of his nephesh,
and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
Therefore will I divide him
a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his nephesh unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

Yesha'yahu54
Isaiah · Chapter 54
Sing, O barren, thou
that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou
that didst not travail with child: for more
are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH).
Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;
For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.
Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.
For thy Maker
is thine husband; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) of hosts
is
his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Yisra'el; The Elohim of the whole earth shall he be called.
For 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy Elohim.
For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.
In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) thy Redeemer.
For this
is as the waters of Noach unto me: for
as
I have sworn that the waters of Noach should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.
For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the b'rit of my peace be removed, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) that hath mercy on thee.
O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest,
and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colors, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.
And I will make thy windows of agates, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant stones.
And all thy children
shall be taught of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH); and great
shall be the peace of thy children.
In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.
Behold, they shall surely gather together,
but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake.
Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.
No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue
that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This
is the heritage of the servants of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), and their righteousness
is of me, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH).

Yesha'yahu55
Isaiah · Chapter 55
Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
Wherefore do ye spend money for
that which is not bread? and your labour for
that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye
that which is good, and let your nephesh delight itself in fatness.
Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your nephesh shall live; and I will make an everlasting b'rit with you,
even the sure mercies of Dawid.
Behold, I have given him
for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.
Behold, thou shalt call a nation
that thou knowest not, and nations
that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) thy Elohim, and for the Holy One of Yisra'el; for he hath glorified thee.
Seek ye 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), and he will have mercy upon him; and to our Elohim, for he will abundantly pardon.
For my thoughts
are not your thoughts, neither
are
your ways my ways, saith 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH).
For
as the shamayim are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from shamayim, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper
in the thing whereto I sent it.
For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap
their hands.
Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) for a name, for an everlasting sign
that shall not be cut off.
