Isaiah 53
1 Who has believed our message? To whom has Yahweh’s arm been revealed?
Pèp la va reponn: -Ki moun ki te kwè sa n'ap tande la a? Ki moun ki rekonèt travay Bondye a nan sa ki rive la a?
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.
Li te grandi devan Bondye tankou yon ti plant ki tou fèb, tankou yon ti kreyòl ki pouse nan tè sèk. Li pa t' bèl gason, li pa t' gen anyen nan li ki pou ta fè nou vire gade l'. Li pa t' sanble anyen ki ta ka fè nou kontan ret gade l'.
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.
Nou pa t' gade l' menm, tout moun te vire do ba li. Li te soufri anpil, li te tout tan nan gwo lapenn. Tout moun te vire tèt yo pou yo pa wè l'. Nou pa t' okipe l', nou pa t' pran ka l' menm.
4 Surely he has borne our sickness and carried our suffering; yet we considered him plagued, struck by God, and afflicted.
Men, se soufrans nou ta gen pou nou soufri a li t'ap soufri pou nou. Se doulè nou ta gen pou santi nan kò pa nou li te pran sou do l'. Nou menm menm, nou te konprann se pini Bondye t'ap pini l'. Nou te konprann se frape Bondye t'ap frape l', se kraze Bondye t'ap kraze l' anba men l'.
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.
Men, se pou peche nou kifè yo te mete san l' deyò konsa. Se akòz mechanste nou kifè yo te kraze l' anba kou konsa. Chatiman ki te pou nou an se sou li li tonbe. Se konsa li ban nou kè poze. Avèk tout kou li te resevwa yo, li ban nou gerizon.
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.
Nou te tankou mouton ki te pèdi bann, chak moun bò pa yo. Men, chatiman ki pou te tonbe sou nou an, Seyè a fè l' tonbe sou li.
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.
Yo te maltrete l', men li menm se bese li bese tèt li ase. Tankou yon ti mouton y'ap mennen labatwa, li pa t' janm louvri bouch li di krik. Wi, tankou yon manman mouton ki pa di krik pandan y'ap taye lenn sou do l', li pa t' janm louvri bouch li di anyen.
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?
Yo pran l', yo mete l' nan prizon, yo trennen l' tribinal. Pa t' gen pesonn pou te pran ka l', lè yo wete l' nan mitan moun k'ap viv sou tè a. Se pou peche pèp mwen an yo te touye l'.
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.
Atout li pa t' janm fè ankenn krim, yo antere l' menm kote ak mechan yo. Atout li pa t' janm kite manti soti nan bouch li, yo mete l' nan yon kavo nan mitan tonm moun rich yo.
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.
Men, se te volonte Bondye pou yo te kraze l' anba soufrans konsa, pou l' te bay lavi li pou Bondye te ka padonnen peche nou yo. L'a wè pitit pitit li yo. L'a viv pi lontan toujou. Se konsa travay Seyè a va mache byen nan men l'.
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.
Apre tout soufrans sa yo, l'a jwenn kè kontan ankò. L'a konnen li pa t' soufri pou gremesi. Li te sèvi Bondye yon jan ki kòrèk nèt. Li te pran chatiman anpil moun sou do l'. L'a fè Bondye fè yo gras.
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.
Se poutèt sa, m'ap pran l' mete l' chèf. M'ap ba li plas nan mitan grannèg yo. L'ap gen menm pouvwa ak gwo chèf yo. Paske se limenm menm ki te bay tèt li pou l' mouri konsa. Li te kite yo mete l' ansanm ak krimenèl yo. Li pran plas anpil moun ki t'ap fè sa ki mal. Li mande padon pou moun ki te fè mal yo.
