Jehovah is still speaking.
see of the travail—He shall see such blessed fruits resulting from His sufferings as amply to repay Him for them (Isaiah 49:4-5; Isaiah 50:5, Isaiah 50:9). The "satisfaction," in seeing the full fruit of His travail of soul in the conversion of Israel and the world, is to be realized in the last days (Isaiah 2:2-4).
his knowledge—rather, the knowledge (experimentally) of Him (John 17:3; Philippians 3:10).
my . . . servant—Messiah (Isaiah 42:1; Isaiah 52:13).
righteous—the ground on which He justifies others, His own righteousness (I John 2:1).
justify—treat as if righteous; forensically; on the ground of His meritorious suffering, not their righteousness.
bear . . . iniquities— (Isaiah 53:4-5), as the sinner's substitute.
