Isaiah 53
1 YHWH, who has believed our message? And to whom has the arm of YHWH been revealed?
Qui a cru à ce que nous avons fait entendre, et à qui le bras de l’Éternel a-t-il été révélé?
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.
Il montera devant lui comme un rejeton, et comme une racine [sortant] d’une terre aride. Il n’a ni forme, ni éclat; quand nous le voyons, il n’y a point d’apparence [en lui] pour nous le faire désirer.
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.
Il est méprisé et délaissé des hommes, homme de douleurs, et sachant ce que c’est que la langueur, et comme quelqu’un de qui on cache sa face; il est méprisé, et nous n’avons eu pour lui aucune estime.
4 Surely he bore our diseases, and took our pains; yet we considered him stricken, and struck down by God, and afflicted.
Certainement, lui, a porté nos langueurs, et s’est chargé de nos douleurs; et nous, nous l’avons estimé battu, frappé de Dieu, et affligé;
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.
mais il a été blessé pour nos transgressions, il a été meurtri pour nos iniquités; le châtiment de notre paix a été sur lui, et par ses meurtrissures nous sommes guéris.
6 We all like sheep have gone astray. Everyone has turned to his own way; and YHWH has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
Nous avons tous été errants comme des brebis, nous nous sommes tournés chacun vers son propre chemin, et l’Éternel a fait tomber sur lui l’iniquité de nous tous.
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.
Il a été opprimé et affligé, et il n’a pas ouvert sa bouche. Il a été amené comme un agneau à la boucherie, et a été comme une brebis muette devant ceux qui la tondent; et il n’a pas ouvert sa bouche.
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.
Il est ôté de l’angoisse et du jugement; et sa génération, qui la racontera? Car il a été retranché de la terre des vivants; à cause de la transgression de mon peuple, lui, a été frappé.
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.
Et on lui donna son sépulcre avec les méchants; mais il a été avec le riche dans sa mort, parce qu’il n’avait fait aucune violence, et qu’il n’y avait pas de fraude dans sa bouche.
10 Yet YHWH 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 YHWH will succeed by his hand.
Mais il plut à l’Éternel de le meurtrir; il l’a soumis à la souffrance. S’il livre son âme en sacrifice pour le péché, il verra une semence; il prolongera ses jours, et le plaisir de l’Éternel prospérera en sa main.
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.
Il verra [du fruit] du travail de son âme, [et] sera satisfait. Par sa connaissance mon serviteur juste enseignera la justice à plusieurs, et lui, il portera leurs iniquités.
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.
C’est pourquoi je lui assignerai une part avec les grands, et il partagera le butin avec les forts, parce qu’il aura livré son âme à la mort, et qu’il aura été compté parmi les transgresseurs, et qu’il a porté le péché de plusieurs, et qu’il a intercédé pour les transgresseurs.
