< Isaia 53 >
1 Cine a crezut vestea noastră şi cui i s-a arătat braţul DOMNULUI?
LORD, who has believed our message? And to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?
2 Fiindcă el va creşte înaintea lui ca un lăstar şi ca o rădăcină dintr-un pământ uscat, nu va avea nici formă nici frumuseţe; şi când îl vom vedea, nu va avea frumuseţe ca să îl dorim.
For he grew up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nor special appearance that we should desire him.
3 El este dispreţuit şi respins de oameni; un om al întristărilor şi obişnuit cu mâhnirea, şi ne-am ascuns de el cum ne-am ascunde feţele, a fost dispreţuit şi noi nu l-am preţuit.
He was despised, and rejected by people; a man of sorrows, and familiar with illness; and as one from whom people hide their face. He was despised, and we did not value him.
4 Cu adevărat el a purtat mâhnirile noastre şi a luat asupra lui întristările noastre, totuşi l-am socotit bătut, lovit de Dumnezeu şi chinuit.
Surely he bore our diseases, and took our pains; yet we considered him stricken, and struck down by God, and afflicted.
5 Dar el a fost rănit pentru fărădelegile noastre, zdrobit pentru nelegiuirile noastre, pedeapsa păcii noastre a fost asupra lui; şi prin loviturile lui suntem vindecaţi.
But he was pierced for our transgressions, and he was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed.
6 Noi toţi ca oi am rătăcit; ne-am întors fiecare la propria cale; şi DOMNUL a aşezat pe el nelegiuirea noastră a tuturor.
All we like sheep have gone astray. Everyone has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7 A fost oprimat şi a fost chinuit, totuşi nu şi-a deschis gura, este adus ca un miel la măcel, ca o oaie mută înaintea tunzătorilor, astfel nu şi-a deschis gura.
He was oppressed, yet when he was afflicted he did not open his mouth. He was led like a sheep to the slaughter, and like a lamb before its shearer is silent, so he does not open his mouth.
8 A fost luat de la închisoare şi de la judecată, şi cine va vesti generaţia lui? Fiindcă a fost stârpit din ţara celor vii, pentru fărădelegea poporului meu a fost el lovit.
In his oppression his justice was taken away. Who will consider his generation? For his life was cut off from the earth. For the transgression of my people he was led to death.
9 Şi în moartea lui şi-a rânduit mormântul cu cei stricaţi şi cu cei bogaţi, pentru că nu făcuse nimic violent, nici nu era vreo înşelăciune în gura lui.
And they assigned his grave with the wicked, yet with the rich at his death, though he had committed no sin, nor was deceit found in his mouth.
10 Totuşi DOMNULUI i-a plăcut să îl zdrobească; l-a supus suferinţei; când tu îi vei face sufletul o ofrandă pentru păcat, el va vedea sămânţa lui, îşi va prelungi zilele şi plăcerea DOMNULUI va prospera în mâna lui.
Yet the LORD was pleased to crush him and make him ill. Although his soul is made a reparation offering, he will see his offspring, he will prolong his days, and the desire of the LORD will succeed by his hand.
11 Va vedea din rodul ostenelii sufletului său şi va fi satisfăcut, prin cunoaşterea lui, servitorul meu cel drept va declara drepţi pe cei mulţi; şi el va lua asupra lui nelegiuirile lor.
After the suffering of his soul he will see light and be satisfied by his knowledge. The righteous one, my servant, will make many righteous, and he will bear their iniquities.
12 De aceea îi voi da partea lui cu cei mari şi va împărţi prada cu cei puternici, pentru că şi-a turnat sufletul până la moarte şi a fost numărat cu călcătorii [de lege]; şi a purtat păcatul multora şi a mijlocit pentru călcătorii [de lege].
Therefore I will divide him a portion with the great, and he will divide the spoil with the strong; because he poured out his soul to death, and he was numbered with transgressors; yet he bore the sins of many, and made intercession for their transgressions.
