God will by them impart and diffuse peace and happiness.
"All we like sheep have gone astray, we, have turned every one to his own way, and the Lord hath caused to meet upon him the iniquity of us all." But it is we who have sinned more than they: we have all gone astray in our ignorance, being without the knowledge of God, or of his law.

Yet the Lord hath permitted us to make them the subjects of our oppressive iniquity.
"He was oppressed, [or "exposed to pecuniary exactions"] and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he was brought as a lamb to the slaughter; and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he opened, not his mouth.

He was taken from prison and from judgment, and who shall declare his generation, ["into his manner of life, who stoopeth to look ?" according to the Hebrew] for he was cut off out of the land of the living; for, [or by] the transgression of my people was he stricken.

And he made his grave with the wicked; but with the rich were his deaths, [or tomb] because he had done no violence, neither was deceit in his mouth." Interpretation--How passive and unresisting were they, when oppressed!--They were afflicted, and they complained not; when through false accusations, and mistaken cruelty they were plundered, and condemned to die, they went like a Iamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so they opened not their mouth.

They were taken from the dungeon to be slain, they were wantonly massacred, and every man was their foe; and the cause of the sufferers who condescended to examine; for by the thoughtless crimes of my people, they suffered.
