Esajas 53
1 Hvo troede det, vi have hørt? og for hvem er Herrens Arm aabenbaret?
Who hath believed our report, And to whom hath the arm of Jehovah been revealed?
2 Thi han skød frem som en Kvist for hans Ansigt og som et Rodskud af tør Jord, han havde ingen Skikkelse eller Herlighed; og vi saa ham, men der var ikke Anseelse, at vi kunde have Lyst til ham.
For He grew up before him like a tender plant, Like a sucker from a dry soil; He had no form, nor comeliness, that we should look upon him, Nor beauty, that we should take pleasure in him.
3 Han var foragtet og ikke at regne iblandt Mænd, en Mand fuld af Pine og forsøgt i Sygdom; og som en, for hvem man skjuler Ansigtet, foragtet, og vi agtede ham for intet.
He was despised, and forsaken of men, A man of sorrows, and acquainted with disease; As one from whom men hide their faces, He was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 Visselig, han har taget vore Sygdomme paa sig og baaret vore Smerter; men vi agtede ham for plaget, slagen af Gud og gjort elendig.
But he bore our diseases, And carried our pains, And we esteemed him stricken from above, Smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 Men han er saaret for vore Overtrædelser og knust for vore Misgerninger; Straffen er lagt paa ham, at vi skulle have Fred, og vi have faaet Lægedom ved hans Saar.
But he was wounded for our transgressions; He was bruised for our iniquities; For our peace was the chastisement upon him, And by his stripes are we healed.
6 Vi fore alle vild som Faar, vi vendte os hver sin Vej; men Herren lod al vor Misgerning komme over ham.
All we, like sheep, were going astray; We turned every one to his own way, And Jehovah laid upon him the iniquity of us all.
7 Han blev trængt, og han blev gjort elendig, men han oplod ikke sin Mund, som et Lam, der føres hen at slagtes, og som et Faar, der er stumt over for dem, som klippe det; og han oplod ikke sin Mund.
He was oppressed, that was already afflicted. Yet he opened not his mouth; As a lamb that is led to the slaughter, And as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, He opened not his mouth.
8 Fra Trængsel og fra Dom er han borttagen, og hvo kan tale om hans Slægt? thi han er bortreven fra de levendes Land, han havde Plage for mit Folks Overtrædelses Skyld.
By oppression and punishment he was taken away, And who in his generation would consider That he was cut off from the land of the living, That for the transgression of my people he was smitten?
9 Og man gav ham hans Grav hos de ugudelige, og hos den rige i hans Død, uagtet han ikke havde gjort Uret, og der ikke var Svig i hans Mund.
His grave was appointed with the wicked, And with the rich man was his sepulchre, Although he had done no injustice, And there was no deceit in his mouth.
10 Men Herren havde Behag i at knuse ham med Sygdom; naar hans Sjæl har fuldbragt et Skyldoffer, skal han se Sæd og forlænge sine Dage; og Herrens Villie skal lykkes ved hans Haand.
It pleased Jehovah severely to bruise him; But when he hath made his life a sacrifice for sin, He shall see posterity; he shall prolong his days, And the pleasure of Jehovah shall prosper in his hand.
11 Fordi hans Sjæl har haft Møje, skal han se det, hvorved han skal mættes; naar han kendes, skal min retfærdige Tjener retfærdiggøre de mange; og han skal bære deres Misgerninger.
Free from his sorrows, he shall see and be satisfied; By his knowledge shall my righteous servant lead many to righteousness, And he shall bear their iniquities.
12 Derfor vil jeg give ham Del i de mange, og han skal dele de stærke som et Bytte, fordi han udtømte sin Sjæl til Døden og blev regnet iblandt Overtrædere; ja han har baaret manges Synd, og han skal bede for Overtrædere.
Therefore will I give him his portion with the mighty, And with heroes shall he divide the spoil, Because he poured out his soul unto death, And was numbered with transgressors; Because he bore the sin of many, And made intercession for transgressors.
