< Esias 53 >
1 O Lord, who has believed our report? and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
我們所傳的有誰信呢? 耶和華的膀臂向誰顯露呢?
2 We brought a report as [of] a child before him; [he is] as a root in a thirsty land: he has no form nor comeliness; and we saw him, but he had no form nor beauty.
他在耶和華面前生長如嫩芽, 像根出於乾地。 他無佳形美容; 我們看見他的時候, 也無美貌使我們羨慕他。
3 But his form was ignoble, and inferior to that of the children of men; [he was] a man in suffering, and acquainted with the bearing of sickness, for his face is turned from [us]: he was dishonoured, and not esteemed.
他被藐視,被人厭棄; 多受痛苦,常經憂患。 他被藐視, 好像被人掩面不看的一樣; 我們也不尊重他。
4 He bears our sins, and is pained for us: yet we accounted him to be in trouble, and in suffering, and in affliction.
他誠然擔當我們的憂患, 背負我們的痛苦; 我們卻以為他受責罰, 被上帝擊打苦待了。
5 But he was wounded on account of our sins, and was bruised because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; [and] by his bruises we were healed.
哪知他為我們的過犯受害, 為我們的罪孽壓傷。 因他受的刑罰,我們得平安; 因他受的鞭傷,我們得醫治。
6 All we as sheep have gone astray; every one has gone astray in his way; and the Lord gave him up for our sins.
我們都如羊走迷; 各人偏行己路; 耶和華使我們眾人的罪孽都歸在他身上。
7 And he, because of his affliction, opens not his mouth: he was led as a sheep to the slaughter, and as a lamb before the shearer is dumb, so he opens not his mouth.
他被欺壓, 在受苦的時候卻不開口; 他像羊羔被牽到宰殺之地, 又像羊在剪毛的人手下無聲, 他也是這樣不開口。
8 In [his] humiliation his judgement was taken away: who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken away from the earth: because of the iniquities of my people he was led to death.
因受欺壓和審判,他被奪去, 至於他同世的人,誰想他受鞭打、 從活人之地被剪除, 是因我百姓的罪過呢?
9 And I will give the wicked for his burial, and the rich for his death; for he practised no iniquity, nor craft with his mouth.
他雖然未行強暴, 口中也沒有詭詐, 人還使他與惡人同埋; 誰知死的時候與財主同葬。
10 The Lord also is pleased to purge him from his stroke. If you can give an offering for sin, your soul shall see a long-lived seed:
耶和華卻定意將他壓傷, 使他受痛苦。 耶和華以他為贖罪祭。 他必看見後裔,並且延長年日。 耶和華所喜悅的事必在他手中亨通。
11 the Lord also is pleased to take away from the travail of his soul, to show him light, and to form [him] with understanding; to justify the just one who serves many well; and he shall bear their sins.
他必看見自己勞苦的功效, 便心滿意足。 有許多人因認識我的義僕得稱為義; 並且他要擔當他們的罪孽。
12 Therefore he shall inherit many, and he shall divide the spoils of the mighty; because his soul was delivered to death: and he was numbered amongst the transgressors; and he bore the sins of many, and was delivered because of their iniquities.
所以,我要使他與位大的同分, 與強盛的均分擄物。 因為他將命傾倒,以致於死; 他也被列在罪犯之中。 他卻擔當多人的罪, 又為罪犯代求。
