ΗΣΑΙΑΣ - Isaia - Isaiah 53

GREEK BIBLE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Τις επιστευσεν εις το κηρυγμα ημων; και ο βραχιων του Κυριου εις τινα απεκαλυφθη;	1 Who has given credence to what we have heard? And who has seen in it a revelation of Yahweh'sarm?
2 διοτι ανεβη ενωπιον αυτου ως τρυφερον φυτον και ως ριζα απο ξηρας γης? δεν εχει ειδος ουδε καλλος? και ειδομεν αυτον και δεν ειχεν ωραιοτητα ωστε να επιθυμωμεν αυτον.	2 Like a sapling he grew up before him, like a root in arid ground. He had no form or charm to attract us,no beauty to win our hearts;
3 Καταπεφρονημενος και απερριμμενος υπο των ανθρωπων? ανθρωπος θλιψεων και δοκιμος ασθενειας? και ως ανθρωπος απο του οποιου αποστρεφει τις το προσωπον, κατεφρονηθη και ως ουδεν ελογισθημεν αυτον.	3 he was despised, the lowest of men, a man of sorrows, familiar with suffering, one from whom, as itwere, we averted our gaze, despised, for whom we had no regard.
4 Αυτος τωοντι τας ασθενειας ημων εβαστασε και τας θλιψεις ημων επεφορτισθη? ημεις δε ενομισαμεν αυτον τετραυματισμενον, πεπληγωμενον υπο Θεου και τεταλαιπωρημενον.	4 Yet ours were the sufferings he was bearing, ours the sorrows he was carrying, while we thought of himas someone being punished and struck with affliction by God;
5 Αλλ' αυτος ετραυματισθη δια τας παραβασεις ημων, εταλαιπωρηθη δια τας ανομιας ημων? η τιμωρια, ητις εφερε την ειρηνην ημων, ητο επ' αυτον? και δια των πληγων αυτου ημεις ιαθημεν.	5 whereas he was being wounded for our rebel ions, crushed because of our guilt; the punishmentreconciling us fel on him, and we have been healed by his bruises.
6 Παντες ημεις επλανηθημεν ως προβατα? εστραφημεν εκαστος εις την οδον αυτου? και ο Κυριος εθεσεν επ' αυτον την ανομιαν παντων ημων.	6 We had al gone astray like sheep, each taking his own way, and Yahweh brought the acts of rebellionof al of us to bear on him.
7 Αυτος ητο κατατεθλιμμενος και βεβασανισμενος αλλα δεν ηνοιξε το στομα αυτου? εφερθη ως αρνιον επι σφαγην, και ως προβατον εμπροσθεν του κειροντος αυτο αφωνον, ουτω δεν ηνοιξε το στομα αυτου.	7 Il -treated and afflicted, he never opened his mouth, like a lamb led to the slaughter-house, like a sheepdumb before its shearers he never opened his mouth.
8 Απο καταθλιψεως και κρισεως ανηρπαχθη? την δε γενεαν αυτου τις θελει διηγηθη; διοτι εσηκωθη απο της γης των ζωντων? δια τας παραβασεις του λαου μου ετραυματισθη.	8 Forcibly, after sentence, he was taken. Which of his contemporaries was concerned at his having beencut off from the land of the living, at his having been struck dead for his people's rebel ion?
9 Και ο ταφος αυτου διωρισθη μετα των κακουργων? πλην εις τον θανατον αυτου εσταθη μετα του πλουσιου? διοτι δεν εκαμεν ανομιαν ουδε ευρεθη δολος εν τω στοματι αυτου.	9 He was given a grave with the wicked, and his tomb is with the rich, although he had done no violence,had spoken no deceit.
10 Αλλ' ο Κυριος ηθελησε να βασανιση αυτον? εταλαιπωρησεν αυτον. Αφου ομως δωσης την ψυχην αυτου προσφοραν περι αμαρτιας, θελει ιδει εκγονα, θελει μακρυνει τας ημερας αυτου, και το θελημα του Κυριου θελει ευοδωθη εν τη χειρι αυτου.	10 It was Yahweh's good pleasure to crush him with pain; if he gives his life as a sin offering, he wil seehis offspring and prolong his life, and through him Yahweh's good pleasure wil be done.
11 Θελει ιδει τους καρπους του πονου της ψυχης αυτου και θελει χορτασθη? ο δικαιος δουλος μου θελει δικαιωσει πολλους δια της επιγνωσεως αυτου? διοτι αυτος θελει βαστασει τας ανομιας αυτων.	11 After the ordeal he has endured, he wil see the light and be content. By his knowledge, the uprightone, my servant wil justify many by taking their guilt on himself.
12 Δια τουτο θελω δωσει εις αυτον μεριδα μετα των μεγαλων και τους ισχυρους θελει μοιρασθη λαφυρον, διοτι παρεδωκε την ψυχην αυτου εις θανατον και μετα ανομων ελογισθη και αυτος εβαστασε τας αμαρτιας πολλων και θελει μεσιτευσει υπερ των ανομων.	12 Hence I shall give him a portion with the many, and he wil share the booty with the mighty, for havingexposed himself to death and for being counted as one of the rebel ious, whereas he was bearing the sin ofmany and interceding for the rebel ious.
