Dear Vadim,

Suppose you, indeed, translate with "prophetic perfect" and "intense plural," and replace "gave" with "made." You get:

they would make in his death with the rich

What does THAT suppose to mean?

HH: Here is the New International Version:

Is. 53:9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death, though he had done no violence, nor was any deceit in his mouth.

HH: Here is the Holman Christian Standard Bible:

He had done no wrong, and he never deceived anyone. But he was buried like a criminal; he was put in a rich man's grave.

HH: Here is the New King james Version:

And they made His grave with the wicked-- But with the rich at His death, Because He had done no violence, Nor was any deceit in His mouth.

HH: Here is the New Revised Standard Version:

They made his grave with the wicked and his tomb with the rich, although he had done no violence, and there was no deceit in his mouth.

HH: Here is the American Standard Version:

His grave was assigned with wicked men, Yet He was with a rich man in His death, Because He had done no violence, Nor was there any deceit in His mouth.

HH: Here is the New Living Translation:

He had done no wrong, and he never deceived anyone. But he was buried like a criminal; he was put in a rich man's grave.

Yours,
Harold Holmyard
