Ezayi 53
1 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?
Who believed what we have heard? And, the arm of Yahweh, to whom was it revealed?
2 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'.
When he came up as a sapling before him. And as a root-sprout out of dry ground, He had neither beauty nor majesty, —When we beheld him, there was nothing to behold, that we should desire him;
3 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.
Despised was he, and forsaken of men, Man of pains and familiar with sickness, —Yea, like one from whom the face is hidden, Despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 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'.
Yet surely, our sicknesses, he, carried, And, as for our pains, he bare the burden of them, —But, we, accounted him stricken. Smitten of God and humbled,
5 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.
Yet, he, was pierced for transgressions that were ours, was crushed for iniquities that were ours, —the chastisement for our well-being, was upon him, And by his stripes, there is healing for us.
6 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.
We all, like sheep, had gone astray, Every man—to his way, had we burned, —And Yahweh! caused to light upon him The guilt of, us all!
7 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.
Hard pressed—yet, he, humbled himself Nor opened his mouth—As, a lamb, to the slaughter, is led, And, as a sheep, before her shearers, is dumb—Nor opened his mouth.
8 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'.
By constraint and by sentence, was he taken away, And of his age, who considered That he was cut off out of the land of the living, For my people’s transgression, did the stroke fall on him?
9 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.
And, appointed with lawless men, was his grave, And with the wicked, his tomb, —Though no violence, had he done, Nor was guile in his mouth.
10 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'.
Yet, Yahweh, purposed to bruise him, He laid on him sickness: —If his soul become an offering for guilt, He shall see a seed, He shall prolong his days, —And the purpose of Yahweh, in his hand, shall prosper:
11 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.
Of the travail of his soul, shall he see He shall be satisfied with his knowledge, A setting right when set right himself, shall my Servant win for the Many, Since of their iniquities, he, taketh the burden.
12 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.
Therefore, will I give him a portion in the great, And the strong, shall he apportion as spoil, Because he poured out, to death his own soul, And with transgressors, let himself be numbered, —Yea, he, the sin of Many, bare, And for transgressors, interposeth.
