Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he poured out his soul unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors: yet he bare the sin of many, and {Or, maketh}made intercession for the transgressors.
his body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt surely bury him the same day; for he that is hanged is {Hebrew: the curse of God.}accursed of God; that thou defile not thy land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
