< 以賽亞書 53 >

1 有誰會相信我們的報道呢﹖上主的手臂又向誰顯示了呢﹖
YHWH, who has believed our message? And to whom has the arm of YHWH been revealed?
2 他在上主前生長如嫩芽,又像出自乾地中的根苗;他沒有俊美,也沒有華麗,可使我們瞻仰;他沒有儀容,可使我們戀慕。
For he grew up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nor special appearance that we should desire him.
3 他受盡了侮辱,被人遺棄;他真是個苦人,熟悉病苦;他好像一個人們掩面不顧的人;他受盡了侮辱,因而我們都以他不算什麼。
He was despised, and rejected by people; a man of sorrows, and familiar with illness; and as one from whom people hide their face. He was despised, and we did not value him.
4 然而他所背負的,是我們的疾苦;擔負的,是我們的疼痛;我們還以為他受了懲罰,為天主所擊傷,和受貶抑的人。
Surely he bore our diseases, and took our pains; yet we considered him stricken, and struck down by God, and afflicted.
5 可是他被刺透,是因了我們的悖逆;他被打傷,是因了我們的罪惡;因他受了懲罰,我們便得了安全;因他受了創傷,我們便得了痊癒。
But he was pierced for our transgressions, and he was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed.
6 我們都像羊一樣迷了路,各走各自的路;但上主卻把我們眾人的罪過歸到他身上。
We all like sheep have gone astray. Everyone has turned to his own way; and YHWH has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7 他受虐待,仍然謙遜忍受,總不開口,如同被牽去待宰的羔羊;又像母羊在剪毛的人前不出聲,他也同樣不開口。
He was oppressed, yet when he was afflicted he did not open his mouth. He was led like a sheep to the slaughter, and like a lamb before its shearer is silent, so he does not open his mouth.
8 他受了不義的審判而被除掉,有誰懷念他的命運﹖其實他從活人的地上被剪除,受難至死,是為了我人民的罪過。
In his oppression his justice was taken away. Who will consider his generation? For his life was cut off from the earth. For the transgression of my people he was led to death.
9 雖然他從未行過強暴,他口中也從未出過謊言,人們仍把他與歹徒同埋,使他同作惡的人同葬。
And they assigned his grave with the wicked, yet with the rich at his death, though he had committed no sin, nor was deceit found in his mouth.
10 上主的旨意是要苦難折磨他;當他犧牲了自己的性命,作了贖過祭時,他要看見他的後輩延年益壽,上主的旨意也藉他的手得以實現。
Yet YHWH was pleased to crush him and make him ill. Although his soul is made a reparation offering, he will see his offspring, he will prolong his days, and the desire of YHWH will succeed by his hand.
11 在他受盡了痛苦之後,他要看見光明,並因自己的經歷而滿足;我正義的僕人要使多人成義,因為他承擔了他們的罪過。
After the suffering of his soul he will see light and be satisfied by his knowledge. The righteous one, my servant, will make many righteous, and he will bear their iniquities.
12 為此,我把大眾賜與他作報酬,他獲得了無數的人作為獵物;因為他為了承擔大眾的罪過,作罪犯的中保,犧牲了自己的性命,至於死亡,被列於罪犯之中。
Therefore I will divide him a portion with the great, and he will divide the spoil with the strong; because he poured out his soul to death, and he was numbered with transgressors; yet he bore the sins of many, and made intercession for their transgressions.
