Isaiah 53:10
KJV
Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.
NASB
But the LORD desired To crush Him, causing Him grief; If He renders Himself as a guilt offering, He will see His offspring, He will prolong His days, And the good pleasure of the LORD will prosper in His hand.
This scripture is about the sacrifice of Christ pleasing God’s wrath. Some modern versions, especially the NASB, give the sense that it was in the Father’s desire to crush his beloved Son, which is altogether blasphemous. The NASB1995 did not read this way.
