< Isaiah 53 >

1 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?
“Tko da povjeruje u ono što nam je objavljeno, kome se otkri ruka Jahvina?”
2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, [there is] no beauty that we should desire him.
Izrastao je pred njim poput izdanka, poput korijena iz zemlje sasušene. Ne bijaše na njem ljepote ni sjaja da bismo se u nj zagledali, ni ljupkosti da bi nam se svidio.
3 He is despised and rejected by men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were [our] faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
Prezren bješe, odbačen od ljudi, čovjek boli, vičan patnjama, od kog svatko lice otklanja, prezren bješe, odvrgnut.
4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted.
A on je naše bolesti ponio, naše je boli na se uzeo, dok smo mi držali da ga Bog bije i ponižava.
5 But he [was] wounded for our transgression, [he was] bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace [was] upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
Za naše grijehe probodoše njega, za opačine naše njega satriješe. Na njega pade kazna - radi našeg mira, njegove nas rane iscijeliše.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
Poput ovaca svi smo lutali i svaki svojim putem je hodio. A Jahve je svalio na nj bezakonje nas sviju.
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth; he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he opened not his mouth.
Zlostavljahu ga, a on puštaše, i nije otvorio usta svojih. K'o jagnje na klanje odvedoše ga; k'o ovca, nijema pred onima što je strižu, nije otvorio usta svojih.
8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off from the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
Silom ga se i sudom riješiše; tko se brine za njegovu sudbinu? Da, iz zemlje živih ukloniše njega, za grijehe naroda njegova nasmrt ga izbiše.
9 And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death: because he had done no violence, neither [was any] deceit in his mouth.
Ukop mu odrediše među zločincima, a grob njegov bi s bogatima, premda nije počinio nepravde nit' su mu usta laži izustila.
10 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put [him] to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see [his] seed, he shall prolong [his] days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.
Al' se Jahvi svidje da ga pritisne bolima. Žrtvuje li život svoj za naknadnicu, vidjet će potomstvo, produžit' sebi dane i Jahvina će se volja po njemu ispuniti.
11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, [and] shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
Zbog patnje duše svoje vidjet će svjetlost i nasititi se spoznajom njezinom. Sluga moj pravedni opravdat će mnoge i krivicu njihovu na sebe uzeti.
12 Therefore I will divide to him [a portion] with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul to death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Zato ću mu mnoštvo dati u baštinu i s mogućnicima plijen će dijeliti, jer sam se ponudio na smrt i među zlikovce bio ubrojen, da grijehe mnogih ponese na sebi i da se zauzme za zločince.
