Isaia 53
1 Iza no nino ny teny nampitondraina anay? Ary iza no nampisehoana ny sandrin’ i Jehovah?
Who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of Jehovah been revealed?
2 Fa naniry teo anatrehany tahaka ny zana-kazo madinika Izy sy tahaka ny solofon-kazo amin’ ny tany karankaina; tsy nanana endrika na fahatsaran-tarehy Izy; Ary raha nijery Azy isika, dia tsy nisy hatsaran-tarehy haniriantsika Azy.
For he grew up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground. He has no form nor comeliness. And when we see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3 Natao tsinontsinona sy nolavin’ ny olona Izy; lehilahy ory sady zatra ny fahoriana, Ary tahaka izay tsy tian’ ny olon-kojerena akory Izy; natao tsinontsinona Izy ka tsy mba nahoantsika.
He was despised, and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief. And as him from whom men hide their face he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 Nitondra ny aretintsika tokoa Izy sady nivesatra ny fahoriantsika; kanjo isika kosa nanao azy ho nokapohina sy nasian’ Andriamanitra ary nampahorina.
Surely he has borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows. Yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted.
5 Nefa Izy dia voalefona noho ny fahadisoantsika sy notorotoroina noho ny helotsika, ny fampijaliana nahazoantsika fihavanana no namelezana Azy; ary ny dian-kapoka taminy no nahasitranana antsika.
But he was wounded for our transgressions. He was bruised for our iniquities. The chastisement of our peace was upon him, and with his stripes we are healed.
6 Isika rehetra dia samy efa nania tahaka ny ondry, samy efa nivily ho amin’ ny lalantsika avy isika rehetra; ary nataon’ i Jehovah nihatra taminy avokoa ny helotsika rehetra.
All we like sheep have gone astray. We have turned every one to his own way, and Jehovah has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7 Nampahorina Izy, nefa nanetry tena ka tsy niloa-bava, dia tahaka ny zanak’ ondry entina hovonoina, sy tahaka ny ondrivavy izay moana eo anatrehan’ ny mpanety azy, eny, tsy niloa-bava Izy.
He was oppressed, yet when he was afflicted he opened not his mouth. As a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that is mute before its shearers, so he opened not his mouth.
8 Ny fampahoriana sy ny fitsarana no nenti-nanaisotra Azy; ary iza tamin’ ny niara-belona taminy no nihevitra fa nofongorana niala tamin’ ny tanin’ ny velona Izy, ka ny fahadisoan’ ny oloko no nikapohana Azy?
In his humiliation his justice was taken away. And as for his generation, who considered that he was cut off out of the land of the living for the transgression of my people, to whom the stroke was due?
9 Ary nokasaina hatao tao amin’ ny olo-meloka ny fasany (Nefa teo amin’ ny mpanankarena Izy, rehefa novonoina), na dia tsy nanao ratsy aza Izy, sady tsy nisy fitaka teo am-bavany.
And they made his grave with the wicked, and with a rich man in his death. Although he had done no violence, nor was any deceit in his mouth.
10 Nefa sitrak’ i Jehovah ny hanorotoro sy hampangirifiry Azy; Rehefa manolotra fanati-panonerana Izy, dia hahita taranaka sady ho maro andro, ary ny sitrapon’ i Jehovah dia hambinina eo an-tànany.
Yet it pleased Jehovah to bruise him. He has put him to grief. When thou shall make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed. He shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of Jehovah shall prosper in his hand.
11 Noho ny fisasaran’ ny fanahiny dia hahita izany Izy ka ho afa-po; Ny fahalalana Azy no hanamarinan’ ny Mpanompoko marina ny olona maro, ary Izy no hivesatra ny helok’ ireo.
He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied. By the knowledge of himself shall my righteous servant justify many, and he shall bear their iniquities.
12 Koa dia hanome Azy anjara amin’ ny lehibe Aho, ary hizara babo amin’ ny mahery Izy; Satria naidiny ho amin’ ny fahafatesana ny ainy, Ary natao ho isan’ ny mpanota Izy; Eny, Izy no nitondra ny fahotan’ ny maro sady manao fifonana ho an’ ny mpanota.
Therefore I will divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong, because he poured out his soul to death, and was numbered with the transgressors. Yet he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
