לָכֵ֞ן אֲחַלֶּק־ל֣וֹ בָרַבִּ֗ים וְאֶת־עֲצוּמִים֮ יְחַלֵּ֣ק שָׁלָל֒ תַּ֗חַת אֲשֶׁ֨ר הֶעֱרָ֤ה לַמָּ֙וֶת֙ נַפְשׁ֔וֹ וְאֶת־פֹּשְׁעִ֖ים נִמְנָ֑ה וְהוּא֙ חֵטְא־רַבִּ֣ים נָשָׂ֔א וְלַפֹּשְׁעִ֖ים יַפְגִּֽיעַ׃ (ס)
Karena itu Aku akan memberikan kepadanya bagian bersama orang-orang besar, dan bersama orang-orang perkasa ia akan membagi rampasan, sebab ia telah mencurahkan jiwanya sampai mati dan ia terhitung di antara para pelanggar. Padahal ia menanggung dosa banyak orang, dan ia memohon bagi para pelanggar.

Rebbi Jonah said, it is written10Is. 53:12. The verse continues: For he offered himself to death and counted the sinners. This applies to R. Aqiba who was a martyr and organized religious tradition in a systematic corpus.: Therefore, I shall distribute to him in public, and with the powerful he shall have part in booty, that is Rebbi Aqiba who organized interpretation of Scripture, practice, and homiletics11The reading of B: Mishnah, interpretation of Scripture, and practice, seems preferable since R.
