< Izaija 53 >

1 “Tko da povjeruje u ono što nam je objavljeno, kome se otkri ruka Jahvina?”
Who has believed our message? To whom has the LORD’s arm been revealed?
2 Izrastao je pred njim poput izdanka, poput korijena iz zemlje sasušene. Ne bijaše na njem ljepote ni sjaja da bismo se u nj zagledali, ni ljupkosti da bi nam se svidio.
For he grew up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of dry ground. He has no good looks or majesty. When we see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3 Prezren bješe, odbačen od ljudi, čovjek boli, vičan patnjama, od kog svatko lice otklanja, prezren bješe, odvrgnut.
He was despised and rejected by men, a man of suffering and acquainted with disease. He was despised as one from whom men hide their face; and we didn’t respect him.
4 A on je naše bolesti ponio, naše je boli na se uzeo, dok smo mi držali da ga Bog bije i ponižava.
Surely he has borne our sickness and carried our suffering; yet we considered him plagued, struck by God, and afflicted.
5 Za naše grijehe probodoše njega, za opačine naše njega satriješe. Na njega pade kazna - radi našeg mira, njegove nas rane iscijeliše.
But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed.
6 Poput ovaca svi smo lutali i svaki svojim putem je hodio. A Jahve je svalio na nj bezakonje nas sviju.
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 Zlostavljahu ga, a on puštaše, i nije otvorio usta svojih. K'o jagnje na klanje odvedoše ga; k'o ovca, nijema pred onima što je strižu, nije otvorio usta svojih.
He was oppressed, yet when he was afflicted he didn’t open his mouth. As a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he didn’t open his mouth.
8 Silom ga se i sudom riješiše; tko se brine za njegovu sudbinu? Da, iz zemlje živih ukloniše njega, za grijehe naroda njegova nasmrt ga izbiše.
He was taken away by oppression and judgement. As for his generation, who considered that he was cut off out of the land of the living and stricken for the disobedience of my people?
9 Ukop mu odrediše među zločincima, a grob njegov bi s bogatima, premda nije počinio nepravde nit' su mu usta laži izustila.
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 Al' se Jahvi svidje da ga pritisne bolima. Žrtvuje li život svoj za naknadnicu, vidjet će potomstvo, produžit' sebi dane i Jahvina će se volja po njemu ispuniti.
Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him. He has caused him to suffer. When you make his soul an offering for sin, he will see his offspring. He will prolong his days and the LORD’s pleasure will prosper in his hand.
11 Zbog patnje duše svoje vidjet će svjetlost i nasititi se spoznajom njezinom. Sluga moj pravedni opravdat će mnoge i krivicu njihovu na sebe uzeti.
After the suffering of his soul, he will see the light and be satisfied. My righteous servant will justify many by the knowledge of himself; and he will bear their iniquities.
12 Zato ću mu mnoštvo dati u baštinu i s mogućnicima plijen će dijeliti, jer sam se ponudio na smrt i među zlikovce bio ubrojen, da grijehe mnogih ponese na sebi i da se zauzme za zločince.
Therefore I will give him a portion with the great. He will divide the plunder with the strong, because he poured out his soul to death and was counted with the transgressors; yet he bore the sins of many and made intercession for the transgressors.
