Esajas 53
1 Hvo troede det, vi have hørt? og for hvem er Herrens Arm aabenbaret?
Who believed what we have heard? And, the arm of Yahweh, to whom was it 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.
When he came up as a sapling before him. And as a root-sprout out of dry ground, He had neither beauty nor majesty, —When we beheld him, there was nothing to behold, that we should desire 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.
Despised was he, and forsaken of men, Man of pains and familiar with sickness, —Yea, like one from whom the face is hidden, 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.
Yet surely, our sicknesses, he, carried, And, as for our pains, he bare the burden of them, —But, we, accounted him stricken. Smitten of God and humbled,
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.
Yet, he, was pierced for transgressions that were ours, was crushed for iniquities that were ours, —the chastisement for our well-being, was upon him, And by his stripes, there is healing for us.
6 Vi fore alle vild som Faar, vi vendte os hver sin Vej; men Herren lod al vor Misgerning komme over ham.
We all, like sheep, had gone astray, Every man—to his way, had we burned, —And Yahweh! caused to light upon him The guilt 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.
Hard pressed—yet, he, humbled himself Nor opened his mouth—As, a lamb, to the slaughter, is led, And, as a sheep, before her shearers, is dumb—Nor opened 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 constraint and by sentence, was he taken away, And of his age, who considered That he was cut off out of the land of the living, For my people’s transgression, did the stroke fall on him?
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.
And, appointed with lawless men, was his grave, And with the wicked, his tomb, —Though no violence, had he done, Nor was guile 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.
Yet, Yahweh, purposed to bruise him, He laid on him sickness: —If his soul become an offering for guilt, He shall see a seed, He shall prolong his days, —And the purpose of Yahweh, in his hand, shall prosper:
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.
Of the travail of his soul, shall he see He shall be satisfied with his knowledge, A setting right when set right himself, shall my Servant win for the Many, Since of their iniquities, he, taketh the burden.
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 a portion in the great, And the strong, shall he apportion as spoil, Because he poured out, to death his own soul, And with transgressors, let himself be numbered, —Yea, he, the sin of Many, bare, And for transgressors, interposeth.
