Yesaya 53
1 Ndani wakhulupirira zimene tanenazi; kapena ndani amene Yehova wamuzindikiritsa mphamvu zake?
Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of YHWH revealed?
2 Iye anakula ngati mphukira pamaso pake, ndiponso ngati muzu mʼnthaka yowuma. Iye analibe thupi labwino kapena nkhope yokongola yoti ife nʼkumamuchewukira, analibe maonekedwe woti ife nʼkumamukhumbira.
For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3 Iye ananyozedwa ndi kukanidwa ndi anthu, munthu amene moyo wake unali wamasautso, wozolowera zowawa, ndipo anali ngati munthu amene anzake amaphimba nkhope zawo akamuona. Iye ananyozedwa, ndipo ife sitinamuyese kanthu.
He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 Ndithudi, iye anamva zowawa mʼmalo mwa ife; ndipo anasautsidwa mʼmalo mwathu. Koma ife tinkaganiza kuti ndi Mulungu amene akumulanga, kumukantha ndi kumusautsa.
Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of Elohim, and afflicted.
5 Koma iye analasidwa chifukwa cha zolakwa zathu, ndipo anamuzunza chifukwa cha zoyipa zathu; iye analangidwa kuti ife tikhale ndi mtendere, ndipo ndi mabala ake ife tinachiritsidwa.
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
6 Ife tonse, ngati nkhosa, tasochera, aliyense mwa ife akungodziyendera; ndipo Yehova wamusenzetsa zoyipa zathu zonse.
All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and YHWH hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7 Anthu anamuzunza ndi kumusautsa, koma sanayankhule kanthu. Monga mwana wankhosa wopita naye kokamupha amachitira, kapena monga nkhosa imakhalira duu poyimeta, momwemonso iye sanatsekule pakamwa pake.
He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
8 Atatha kumugwira mwankhanza ndikumuyimba mlandu, kenaka anapita naye kukamupha. Ndipo ndani amene analabadirako za zidzukulu zake, poona kuti iye anachotsedwa mʼdziko la anthu amoyo? Ndani anaganizirapo poona kuti iye anakanthidwa chifukwa cha zolakwa za anthu anga?
He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
9 Anamukonzera manda ake pamodzi ndi anthu oyipa ndipo anamuyika mʼmanda pamodzi ndi anthu achuma, ngakhale kuti iye sanachite za chiwawa, kapena kuyankhula za chinyengo.
And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.
10 Komatu ndi Yehova amene anafuna kuti amuzunze ndi kumusautsa. Yehova anapereka moyo wa mtumiki wake kuti ukhale nsembe yoperekedwa chifukwa cha zolakwa. Tsono iye adzaona zidzukulu zake ndipo adzakhala ndi moyo wautali, ndipo chifuniro cha Yehova chidzachitika mwa iye.
Yet it pleased YHWH to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of YHWH shall prosper in his hand.
11 Atatha mazunzo a moyo wake, adzaona kuwala, ndipo adzakhutira. Mwa nzeru zake mtumiki wanga wolungamayo adzalungamitsa anthu ambiri, popeza adzasenza zolakwa zawo.
He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
12 Motero Ine ndidzamupatsa ulemu pamodzi ndi akuluakulu, adzagawana zofunkha ndi ankhondo amphamvu, popeza anapereka moyo wake mpaka kufa, ndipo anamuyika mʼgulu la anthu olakwa kuti akhululukidwe. Pakuti iye anasenza machimo a anthu ambiri, ndipo anawapempherera anthu olakwa.
Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
