Yesha-Yahu 53 – ישעיהו נג

1“Who would have believed our report? And to whom has Zero’ah  יהוה  been revealed? 2For He shot up right forth as a sapling, and as a root out of a dry ground; He had no form nor comeliness that we should look upon Him, nor beauty that we should delight in Him. 3He was despised, and forsaken of men, a man of pains, and acquainted with sorrows, and as one from whom men hide their faces: He was despised, and we esteemed Him not. 4Surely our sickness he did bear, and our pains he carried; whereas we did esteem Him stricken, smitten of Elohim, and afflicted. 5But He was wounded because of our transgressions, He was broken because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our shalom was upon Him, and with His stripes we were healed. 6All we like sheep did go astray, we turned every one to his own way; and  יהוה  has made to light on Him the iniquity of us all. 7He was oppressed, though He humbled himself and opened not his mouth; as a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before her shearers is dumb; yes, He opened not his mouth. 8By oppression and judgment He was taken away, and with His generation who did reason? For He was cut off out of the land of the living, for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke was due. 9And they made His grave with the wicked, and with the rich His tomb; although He had done no violence, neither was any deceit in His mouth.”

 10“Yet it pleased  יהוה  to break Him in weakness; so You would make His soul as a guilt offering, that He might see His seed, prolong His days, and that the desire of  יהוה  might prosper by His hand: 11of the travail of His soul He shall see to the full, even My servant; by His knowledge, my Servant, a Tzadik, shall justify many, and their iniquities He will bear. 12Therefore will I divide Him a portion among the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the mighty; because He poured out his soul unto Mavet, and was numbered with the transgressors; yet He bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.” end Akharei Mot

אמִי הֶאֱמִין לִשְׁמֻעָתֵנוּ; וּזְרוֹעַ יהוה עַל מִי נִגְלָתָה? בוַיַּעַל כַּיּוֹנֵק לְפָנָיו וְכַשֹּׁרֶשׁ מֵאֶרֶץ צִיָּה לֹא תֹאַר לוֹ וְלֹא הָדָר; וְנִרְאֵהוּ וְלֹא מַרְאֶה וְנֶחְמְדֵהוּ. גנִבְזֶה וַחֲדַל אִישִׁים אִישׁ מַכְאֹבוֹת וִידוּעַ חֹלִי; וּכְמַסְתֵּר פָּנִים מִמֶּנּוּ נִבְזֶה וְלֹא חֲשַׁבְנֻהוּ. דאָכֵן חֳלָיֵנוּ הוּא נָשָׂא וּמַכְאֹבֵינוּ סְבָלָם; וַאֲנַחְנוּ חֲשַׁבְנֻהוּ נָגוּעַ מֻכֵּה אֱלֹהִים וּמְעֻנֶּה. הוְהוּא מְחֹלָל מִפְּשָׁעֵנוּ מְדֻכָּא מֵעֲו‍ֹנֹתֵינוּ; מוּסַר שְׁלוֹמֵנוּ עָלָיו וּבַחֲבֻרָתוֹ נִרְפָּא לָנוּ. וכֻּלָּנוּ כַּצֹּאן תָּעִינוּ אִישׁ לְדַרְכּוֹ פָּנִינוּ; וַיהוה הִפְגִּיעַ בּוֹ אֵת עֲו‍ֹן כֻּלָּנוּ. זנִגַּשׂ וְהוּא נַעֲנֶה וְלֹא יִפְתַּח פִּיו כַּשֶּׂה לַטֶּבַח יוּבָל וּכְרָחֵל לִפְנֵי גֹזְזֶיהָ נֶאֱלָמָה; וְלֹא יִפְתַּח פִּיו. חמֵעֹצֶר וּמִמִּשְׁפָּט לֻקָּח וְאֶת דּוֹרוֹ מִי יְשׂוֹחֵחַ: כִּי נִגְזַר מֵאֶרֶץ חַיִּים מִפֶּשַׁע עַמִּי נֶגַע לָמוֹ. טוַיִּתֵּן אֶת רְשָׁעִים קִבְרוֹ וְאֶת עָשִׁיר בְּמֹתָיו; עַל לֹא חָמָס עָשָׂה וְלֹא מִרְמָה בְּפִיו. 

יוַיהוה חָפֵץ דַּכְּאוֹ הֶחֱלִי אִם תָּשִׂים אָשָׁם נַפְשׁוֹ יִרְאֶה זֶרַע יַאֲרִיךְ יָמִים; וְחֵפֶץ יהוה בְּיָדוֹ יִצְלָח. יאמֵעֲמַל נַפְשׁוֹ יִרְאֶה יִשְׂבָּע בְּדַעְתּוֹ יַצְדִּיק צַדִּיק עַבְדִּי לָרַבִּים; וַעֲו‍ֹנֹתָם הוּא יִסְבֹּל. יבלָכֵן אֲחַלֶּק לוֹ בָרַבִּים וְאֶת עֲצוּמִים יְחַלֵּק שָׁלָל תַּחַת אֲשֶׁר הֶעֱרָה לַמָּוֶת נַפְשׁוֹ וְאֶת פֹּשְׁעִים נִמְנָה; וְהוּא חֵטְא רַבִּים נָשָׂא וְלַפֹּשְׁעִים יַפְגִּיעַ.
