    In JBR's list above, you have two choices:

    The Chaldee Paraphrase is old but cheap and to the point; not easy to see exactly how he's translating

    Aramaic Bible Vol11 is the more recent and scholarly.  It also includes in-depth discussions of Isaiah Targum.  A short shippet:

    "A treatment of the sayings of Jesus which appear to be related to the Isaiah Targum is offered in a separate volume (Chilton [1984]); those passages, and other possible points of contact between the New Testament and the Targum are cited in the Notes. Owing to the nature of the New Testament’s formation, the most evident coincidences with the Targum appear in sayings of Jesus. Examples include Jesus’ reference, in Mark 4:12, to Isaiah 6:9, 10. Jesus’ “citation”—which by any standard is very free—appears closer to the Targumic version of the passage than to what is presented in the Hebrew and Greek versions of the Old Testament."

    The separate Chilton volume aluded to above is in Logos; 'Glory of Israel' in JBR's list above.
