イザヤ書 53
1 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。
Who has believed what they heard from us, and to whom has the arm of Yahweh been revealed?
2 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。
For he grew up before Yahweh like a sapling, and like a sprout out of parched earth; he had no remarkable appearance or splendor; when we saw him, there was no beauty to attract us.
3 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。
He was despised and rejected by people; a man of sorrows, and one familiar with pain. Like one from whom men hide their faces, he was despised; and we considered him insignificant.
4 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。
But surely he has borne our sicknesses and carried our sorrows; yet we thought he was being punished by God, struck by God, and afflicted.
5 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。
But he was pierced because of our rebellious deeds; he was crushed because of our sins. The punishment for our peace was on him, and with his wounds we are healed.
6 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。
We all like sheep have gone astray; we have each turned to his own way, and Yahweh has placed on him the iniquity of us all.
7 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。
He was oppressed; yet when he humbled himself, he did not open his mouth; as a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth.
8 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。
By coercion and judgment he was condemned; who from that generation thought anymore about him? But he was cut off from the land of the living; because of the offenses of my people the penalty was put on him.
9 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。
They placed his grave with the criminals, with a rich man in his death, although he had done no violence, nor had there been any deceit in his mouth.
10 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。
Yet it was Yahweh's will to crush him and make him ill. When he makes his life an offering for sin, he will see his offspring, he will prolong his days, and Yahweh's purpose will be accomplished through him.
11 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。
After the suffering of his life, he will see light and be satisfied by his knowledge. My righteous servant will justify many; he will bear their iniquities.
12 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。
Therefore will I give him his portion among the multitudes, and he will divide the spoils with the many, because he exposed himself to death and was numbered with the transgressors. He bore the sin of many and made intercession for the transgressors.
