Isaia 53
1 Ia ty hiantoke ty taro’ay? naboak’ ama’ia ty fità’ Iehovà?
Who hath given credence to that which we heard? And the arm of Jehovah, On whom hath it been revealed?
2 Ie nitiry añatrefa’e eo hoe toran-katae, hoe vahatse an-tane maike. Ie tsy naràm-bintañe tsy amañ’asiñe te nisambà’ay; tsy ni-soa-vintañe hahasinda anay.
Yea, he cometh up as a tender plant before Him, And as a root out of a dry land, He hath no form, nor honour, when we observe him, Nor appearance, when we desire him.
3 Nisirikaeñe, nitorifiha’ ondaty, lahilahy nalovilovy, nahafohim-pandalàñe, hoe itakonan-tarehe; nimavoeñe vaho tsy nañaoñe Aze tikañe.
He is despised, and left of men, A man of pains, and acquainted with sickness, And as one hiding the face from us, He is despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 Toe nivavè’e o haorean-tikañeo, nendese’e o hasilofan-tikañeo; fa nataon-tika t’ie vinango, linafan’Añahare, nisilofeñe.
Surely our sicknesses he hath borne, And our pains — he hath carried them, And we — we have esteemed him plagued, Smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 O fiolàn-tikañeo ty nandratañe aze, o tahin-tikañeo ty nandemohañe aze; tama’e ty fandilovañe ninday fanintsiñañe aman-tikañe; o fere’eo ro mahajangañ’antika.
And he is pierced for our transgressions, Bruised for our iniquities, The chastisement of our peace [is] on him, And by his bruise there is healing to us.
6 Songa nandrike hoe añondry sindre nitsile amy lia’ey; fonga nampivavè’ Iehovà aze o hakeon-tikañeo.
All of us like sheep have wandered, Each to his own way we have turned, And Jehovah hath caused to meet on him, The punishment of us all.
7 Niforekekeñe naho nampiambaneñe, f’ie tsy nanoka-palie; hoe anak’añondry tantalieñe ho lentaeñe, hambañe ami’ty fitsìn’añondry añatrefa’ o mpañitsikeo, t’ie tsy nanoka-palie.
It hath been exacted, and he hath answered, And he openeth not his mouth, As a lamb to the slaughter he is brought, And as a sheep before its shearers is dumb, And he openeth not his mouth.
8 Fiforeforeañe naho zaka ty naneseañe aze; Ia ty ho nahafitoky ty loak’andro’e kanao naitoañe an-tanen-kaveloñe; ie pinaoke ty amo fiolà’ ondatikoo.
By restraint and by judgment he hath been taken, And of his generation who doth meditate, That he hath been cut off from the land of the living? By the transgression of My people he is plagued,
9 Nampindrezeñe amo tsereheñeo ty kibori’e, vaho niharoe’e havilasy o mpañalealeo, amy t’ie tsy nijoy, vaho tsy tam-palie’e ao ty famañahiañe.
And it appointeth with the wicked his grave, And with the rich [are] his high places, Because he hath done no violence, Nor [is] deceit in his mouth.
10 F’ie ninò’ Iehovà ty handemoke aze naho ty haniloke aze, aa ie nañenga ty fiai’e ho efe-tahiñe, le hahavazoho tariratse, naho hitompeañ’andro, vaho hiraorao am-pità’e o satrin’ arofo’ Iehovào.
And Jehovah hath delighted to bruise him, He hath made him sick, If his soul doth make an offering for guilt, He seeth seed — he prolongeth days, And the pleasure of Jehovah in his hand doth prosper.
11 Ho isa’e ty vokam-paloviloviam-piai’e le hanintsiñe; ty hilala’ i mpitoroko vantañey ro hañavantañe ty maro; ie ty mivave o tahi’ iareoo.
Of the labour of his soul he seeth — he is satisfied, Through his knowledge give righteousness Doth the righteous one, My servant, to many, And their iniquities he doth bear.
12 Aa le hitolorako tambe añivo’ o manjofakeo, le handivà’e amo fanalolahio i nikopaheñey, amy te nadoa’e an-kavilasy ty fiai’e, naho vinolily amo mpanan-kakeoo, nilogologoe’e ty tahi’ o maroo, vaho jineba’e o manan-tahiñeo.
Therefore I give a portion to him among the many, And with the mighty he apportioneth spoil, Because that he exposed to death his soul, And with transgressors he was numbered, And he the sin of many hath borne, And for transgressors he intercedeth.
