Isaiah 53
1 LORD, who has believed our message? And to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?
だれがわれわれの聞いたことを信じ得たか。主の腕は、だれにあらわれたか。
2 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.
彼は主の前に若木のように、かわいた土から出る根のように育った。彼にはわれわれの見るべき姿がなく、威厳もなく、われわれの慕うべき美しさもない。
3 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.
彼は侮られて人に捨てられ、悲しみの人で、病を知っていた。また顔をおおって忌みきらわれる者のように、彼は侮られた。われわれも彼を尊ばなかった。
4 Surely he bore our diseases, and took our pains; yet we considered him stricken, and struck down by God, and afflicted.
まことに彼はわれわれの病を負い、われわれの悲しみをになった。しかるに、われわれは思った、彼は打たれ、神にたたかれ、苦しめられたのだと。
5 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.
しかし彼はわれわれのとがのために傷つけられ、われわれの不義のために砕かれたのだ。彼はみずから懲しめをうけて、われわれに平安を与え、その打たれた傷によって、われわれはいやされたのだ。
6 All we like sheep have gone astray. Everyone has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
われわれはみな羊のように迷って、おのおの自分の道に向かって行った。主はわれわれすべての者の不義を、彼の上におかれた。
7 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.
彼はしえたげられ、苦しめられたけれども、口を開かなかった。ほふり場にひかれて行く小羊のように、また毛を切る者の前に黙っている羊のように、口を開かなかった。
8 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.
彼は暴虐なさばきによって取り去られた。その代の人のうち、だれが思ったであろうか、彼はわが民のとがのために打たれて、生けるものの地から断たれたのだと。
9 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.
彼は暴虐を行わず、その口には偽りがなかったけれども、その墓は悪しき者と共に設けられ、その塚は悪をなす者と共にあった。
10 Yet the LORD 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 the LORD will succeed by his hand.
しかも彼を砕くことは主のみ旨であり、主は彼を悩まされた。彼が自分を、とがの供え物となすとき、その子孫を見ることができ、その命をながくすることができる。かつ主のみ旨が彼の手によって栄える。
11 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.
彼は自分の魂の苦しみにより光を見て満足する。義なるわがしもべはその知識によって、多くの人を義とし、また彼らの不義を負う。
12 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.
それゆえ、わたしは彼に大いなる者と共に物を分かち取らせる。彼は強い者と共に獲物を分かち取る。これは彼が死にいたるまで、自分の魂をそそぎだし、とがある者と共に数えられたからである。しかも彼は多くの人の罪を負い、とがある者のためにとりなしをした。
