Isaiah 53
1 Who has believed our message? To whom has Yahweh’s arm been revealed?
有誰會相信我們的報道呢﹖上主的手臂又向誰顯示了呢﹖
2 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.
他在上主前生長如嫩芽，又像出自乾地中的根苗；他沒有俊美，也沒有華麗，可使我們瞻仰；他沒有儀容，可使我們戀慕。
3 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.
他受盡了侮辱，被人遺棄；他真是個苦人，熟悉病苦；他好像一個人們掩面不顧的人；他受盡了侮辱，因而我們都以他不算什麼。
4 Surely he has borne our sickness and carried our suffering; yet we considered him plagued, struck by God, and afflicted.
然而他所背負的，是我們的疾苦；擔負的，是我們的疼痛；我們還以為他受了懲罰，為天主所擊傷，和受貶抑的人。
5 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.
可是他被刺透，是因了我們的悖逆；他被打傷，是因了我們的罪惡；因他受了懲罰，我們便得了安全；因他受了創傷，我們便得了痊癒。
6 All we like sheep have gone astray. Everyone has turned to his own way; and Yahweh has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
我們都像羊一樣迷了路，各走各自的路；但上主卻把我們眾人的罪過歸到他身上。
7 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.
他受虐待，仍然謙遜忍受，總不開口，如同被牽去待宰的羔羊；又像母羊在剪毛的人前不出聲，他也同樣不開口。
8 He was taken away by oppression and judgment. 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?
他受了不義的審判而被除掉，有誰懷念他的命運﹖其實他從活人的地上被剪除，受難至死，是為了我人民的罪過。
9 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.
雖然他從未行過強暴，他口中也從未出過謊言，人們仍把他與歹徒同埋，使他同作惡的人同葬。
10 Yet it pleased Yahweh 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 Yahweh’s pleasure will prosper in his hand.
上主的旨意是要苦難折磨他；當他犧牲了自己的性命，作了贖過祭時，他要看見他的後輩延年益壽，上主的旨意也藉他的手得以實現。
11 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.
在他受盡了痛苦之後，他要看見光明，並因自己的經歷而滿足；我正義的僕人要使多人成義，因為他承擔了他們的罪過。
12 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.
為此，我把大眾賜與他作報酬，他獲得了無數的人作為獵物；因為他為了承擔大眾的罪過，作罪犯的中保，犧牲了自己的性命，至於死亡，被列於罪犯之中。
