< Isaiah 53 >

1 Who would have had faith in the word which has come to our ears, and to whom had the arm of the Lord been unveiled?
کیست که خبر ما را تصدیق نموده وکیست که ساعد خداوند بر او منکشف شده باشد؟۱
2 For his growth was like that of a delicate plant before him, and like a root out of a dry place: he had no grace of form, to give us pleasure;
زیرا به حضور وی مثل نهال و مانندریشه در زمین خشک خواهد رویید. او را نه صورتی و نه جمالی می‌باشد. و چون او رامی نگریم منظری ندارد که مشتاق او باشیم.۲
3 Men made sport of him, turning away from him; he was a man of sorrows, marked by disease; and like one from whom men's faces are turned away, he was looked down on, and we put no value on him.
خوار و نزد مردمان مردود و صاحب غمها ورنج دیده و مثل کسی‌که رویها را از او بپوشانند وخوار شده که او را به حساب نیاوردیم.۳
4 But it was our pain he took, and our diseases were put on him: while to us he seemed as one diseased, on whom God's punishment had come.
لکن او غم های ما را بر خود گرفت و دردهای ما را بر خویش حمل نمود. و ما او را از جانب خدا زحمت کشیده و مضروب و مبتلا گمان بردیم.۴
5 But it was for our sins he was wounded, and for our evil doings he was crushed: he took the punishment by which we have peace, and by his wounds we are made well.
و حال آنکه به‌سبب تقصیرهای مامجروح و به‌سبب گناهان ما کوفته گردید. وتادیب سلامتی ما بر وی آمد و از زخمهای او ماشفا یافتیم.۵
6 We all went wandering like sheep; going every one of us after his desire; and the Lord put on him the punishment of us all.
جمیع ما مثل گوسفندان گمراه شده بودیم و هریکی از ما به راه خود برگشته بود وخداوند گناه جمیع ما را بروی نهاد.۶
7 Men were cruel to him, but he was gentle and quiet; as a lamb taken to its death, and as a sheep before those who take her wool makes no sound, so he said not a word.
او مظلوم شد اما تواضع نموده، دهان خود رانگشود. مثل بره‌ای که برای ذبح می‌برند و مانندگوسفندی که نزد پشم برنده‌اش بی‌زبان است همچنان دهان خود را نگشود.۷
8 They took away from him help and right, and who gave a thought to his fate? for he was cut off from the land of the living: he came to his death for the sin of my people.
از ظلم و ازداوری گرفته شد. و از طبقه او که تفکر نمود که اواز زمین زندگان منقطع شد و به جهت گناه قوم من مضروب گردید؟۸
9 And they put his body into the earth with sinners, and his last resting-place was with the evil-doers, though he had done no wrong, and no deceit was in his mouth.
و قبر او را با شریران تعیین نمودند و بعد از مردنش با دولتمندان. هرچند هیچ ظلم نکرد و در دهان وی حیله‌ای نبود.۹
10 And the Lord was pleased ... see a seed, long life, ... will do well in his hand. ...
اما خداوند را پسند آمد که او را مضروب نموده، به دردها مبتلا سازد. چون جان او راقربانی گناه ساخت. آنگاه ذریت خود را خواهددید و عمر او دراز خواهد شد و مسرت خداونددر دست او میسر خواهد بود.۱۰
11 ... made clear his righteousness before men ... had taken their sins on himself.
ثمره مشقت جان خویش را خواهد دید و سیر خواهد شد. وبنده عادل من به معرفت خود بسیاری را عادل خواهد گردانید زیرا که او گناهان ایشان را برخویشتن حمل خواهد نمود.۱۱
12 For this cause he will have a heritage with the great, and he will have a part in the goods of war with the strong, because he gave up his life, and was numbered with the evil-doers; taking on himself the sins of the people, and making prayer for the wrongdoers.
بنابراین او را درمیان بزرگان نصیب خواهم داد و غنیمت را بازورآوران تقسیم خواهد نمود، به جهت اینکه جان خود را به مرگ ریخت و از خطاکاران محسوب شد و گناهان بسیاری را بر خود گرفت وبرای خطاکاران شفاعت نمود.۱۲
