< Isaiah 53 >

1 Who has given credence to that which we heard? And the arm of YHWH, On whom has it been revealed?
Pèp la va reponn: -Ki moun ki te kwè sa n'ap tande la a? Ki moun ki rekonèt travay Bondye a nan sa ki rive la a?
2 Indeed, He comes up as a tender plant before Him, And as a root out of dry land, He has no form or splendor when we observe Him, Nor appearance, that we desire Him.
Li te grandi devan Bondye tankou yon ti plant ki tou fèb, tankou yon ti kreyòl ki pouse nan tè sèk. Li pa t' bèl gason, li pa t' gen anyen nan li ki pou ta fè nou vire gade l'. Li pa t' sanble anyen ki ta ka fè nou kontan ret gade l'.
3 He is despised, and left of men, A Man of pains, and acquainted with sickness, And as one hiding the face from us, He is despised, and we did not esteem Him.
Nou pa t' gade l' menm, tout moun te vire do ba li. Li te soufri anpil, li te tout tan nan gwo lapenn. Tout moun te vire tèt yo pou yo pa wè l'. Nou pa t' okipe l', nou pa t' pran ka l' menm.
4 Surely He has borne our sicknesses, And our pains—He has carried them, And we have esteemed Him [as] plagued, struck of God, and afflicted.
Men, se soufrans nou ta gen pou nou soufri a li t'ap soufri pou nou. Se doulè nou ta gen pou santi nan kò pa nou li te pran sou do l'. Nou menm menm, nou te konprann se pini Bondye t'ap pini l'. Nou te konprann se frape Bondye t'ap frape l', se kraze Bondye t'ap kraze l' anba men l'.
5 And He is pierced for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities, The discipline of our peace [is] on Him, And by His scourging we are healed.
Men, se pou peche nou kifè yo te mete san l' deyò konsa. Se akòz mechanste nou kifè yo te kraze l' anba kou konsa. Chatiman ki te pou nou an se sou li li tonbe. Se konsa li ban nou kè poze. Avèk tout kou li te resevwa yo, li ban nou gerizon.
6 All of us, like sheep, have wandered, Man has turned to his own way, And YHWH has laid on Him the punishment of us all.
Nou te tankou mouton ki te pèdi bann, chak moun bò pa yo. Men, chatiman ki pou te tonbe sou nou an, Seyè a fè l' tonbe sou li.
7 It has been exacted, and He has answered, And He does not open His mouth, He is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, And as a sheep before its shearers is silent, So He does not open His mouth.
Yo te maltrete l', men li menm se bese li bese tèt li ase. Tankou yon ti mouton y'ap mennen labatwa, li pa t' janm louvri bouch li di krik. Wi, tankou yon manman mouton ki pa di krik pandan y'ap taye lenn sou do l', li pa t' janm louvri bouch li di anyen.
8 By restraint and by judgment He has been taken, And of His generation who meditates, That He has been cut off from the land of the living? He is plagued by the transgression of My people,
Yo pran l', yo mete l' nan prizon, yo trennen l' tribinal. Pa t' gen pesonn pou te pran ka l', lè yo wete l' nan mitan moun k'ap viv sou tè a. Se pou peche pèp mwen an yo te touye l'.
9 And He appoints His grave with the wicked, And with the rich at His death, Because He has done no violence, Nor [is] deceit in His mouth.
Atout li pa t' janm fè ankenn krim, yo antere l' menm kote ak mechan yo. Atout li pa t' janm kite manti soti nan bouch li, yo mete l' nan yon kavo nan mitan tonm moun rich yo.
10 And YHWH has delighted to crush Him, He has made Him sick; If His soul makes an offering for guilt, He sees [His] seed—He prolongs [His] days, And the pleasure of YHWH prospers in His hand.
Men, se te volonte Bondye pou yo te kraze l' anba soufrans konsa, pou l' te bay lavi li pou Bondye te ka padonnen peche nou yo. L'a wè pitit pitit li yo. L'a viv pi lontan toujou. Se konsa travay Seyè a va mache byen nan men l'.
11 Of the labor of His soul He sees—He is satisfied, Through His knowledge My Righteous Servant gives righteousness to many, And He bears their iniquities.
Apre tout soufrans sa yo, l'a jwenn kè kontan ankò. L'a konnen li pa t' soufri pou gremesi. Li te sèvi Bondye yon jan ki kòrèk nèt. Li te pran chatiman anpil moun sou do l'. L'a fè Bondye fè yo gras.
12 Therefore I give a portion to Him among the many, And He apportions spoil with the mighty, Because that He exposed His soul to death, And He was numbered with transgressors, And He has borne the sin of many, And He intercedes for transgressors.
Se poutèt sa, m'ap pran l' mete l' chèf. M'ap ba li plas nan mitan grannèg yo. L'ap gen menm pouvwa ak gwo chèf yo. Paske se limenm menm ki te bay tèt li pou l' mouri konsa. Li te kite yo mete l' ansanm ak krimenèl yo. Li pran plas anpil moun ki t'ap fè sa ki mal. Li mande padon pou moun ki te fè mal yo.
