Isaiah 53
1 Ka thuih o ih lok tang kami oh maw? Angraeng ih ban loe mi khaeah maw amtueng?
O Lord, who has believed our report? and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
2 Anih loe a hmaa ah thing tadok baktiah tacawt moe, long karoem ahmuen ah kamprawk thing tangzun baktiah oh; aicae mah koeh han koi krang tidoeh om ai; a khit o hanah kranghoihaih to om ai.
We brought a report as [of] a child before him; [he is] as a root in a thirsty land: he has no form nor comeliness; and we saw him, but he had no form nor beauty.
3 Kaminawk mah anih to patoek o, pahnawt padah o; anih loe palungsae kami, patangkhang kami ah oh; anih loe minawk mah mikhmai hawk taak ih kami baktiah oh; anih to patoek o, mi mah doeh khingyahaih a paek o ai.
But his form was ignoble, and inferior to that of the children of men; [he was] a man in suffering, and acquainted with the bearing of sickness, for his face is turned from [us]: he was dishonored, and not esteemed.
4 Anih mah ni aicae patangkhanghaih hoi palungsethaih to phawh; toe anih loe Sithaw mah danpaek ih kami, thuitaekhaih hoi bohhaih tongh kami ah a poek o lat.
He bears our sins, and is pained for us: yet we accounted him to be in trouble, and in suffering, and in affliction.
5 Toe anih loe aicae zaehaih pongah ahmaa caak moe, aicae sakpazaehaih pongah nganbawh kana a hak; aicae ngan amdinghaih ah kaom thuitaekhaih loe anih nuiah phak, anih bohhaih mah aicae han ngantuisak.
But he was wounded on account of our sins, and was bruised because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; [and] by his bruises we were healed.
6 Aicae loe tuu baktiah loklam amkhraeng o boih boeh; kami boih mah angmah ih loklam ah caeh o boeh pongah, Angraeng mah aicae zaehaih to anih nuiah amtik.
All we as sheep have gone astray; every one has gone astray in his way; and the Lord gave him up for our sins.
7 Anih loe pacaekthlaekhaih hoiah patangkhang, toe anih loe pakha aang ai; anih loe hum han ih tuucaa baktiah caeh o haih, tuumui aatkung hmaa ah kangam duem tuu baktiah, anih loe pakha to aang ai.
And he, because of his affliction, opens not his mouth: he was led as a sheep to the slaughter, and as a lamb before the shearer is dumb, so he opens not his mouth.
8 Toenghaih hoiah lokcaekhaih om ai ah, anih to thongim hoi lokcaekhaih ahmuen hoiah caeh o haih ving; anih to kahing kaminawk ih prae thung hoiah hum o pongah, anih ih acaengnawk to mi mah maw thui tih? Kai ih kaminawk zaehaih pongah anih to boh o.
In [his] humiliation his judgment was taken away: who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken away from the earth: because of the iniquities of my people he was led to death.
9 Anih loe zaehaih sah ai, pakha ah alinghaih om ai; toe anih to kazae kaminawk ih taprong ah aphum o moe, a duek naah angraengnawk hoi nawnto aphum o.
And I will give the wicked for his burial, and the rich for his death; for he practised no iniquity, nor craft with his mouth.
10 Anih to patangkhangsak moe, nganbawh kana paekhaih loe Angraeng koehhaih ah oh; zae angbawn haih hanah a hinghaih na paeksak pacoengah, anih mah angmah ih acaengnawk to hnu tih; hinglung doeh sawk tih; a ban mah Angraeng koehhaih to sah tih.
The Lord also is pleased to purge him from his stroke. If you can give an offering for sin, your soul shall see a long-lived seed:
11 A hing patangkhanghaih atho to hnuk naah, anih mah poeknawmhaih to tawn tih boeh; anih mah nihcae zaehaih to phaw pae pongah, katoeng ka tamna to panoekhaih rang hoiah anih mah pop parai kaminawk to toenghaih paek tih.
the Lord also is pleased to take away from the travail of his soul, to show him light, and to form [him] with understanding; to justify the just one who serves many well; and he shall bear their sins.
12 Anih loe duek khoek to a hinghaih paek pongah, anih to kazae kaminawk hoi nawnto kroek o hmaek; anih mah pop parai kaminawk ih zaehaih to a phawh, kazae kaminawk hanah lawk a thuih pae pongah, kalen kaminawk hoi nawnto tangqum ka paek han, anih mah lak ih hmuen to thacak kaminawk hoi nawnto amzet o tih.
Therefore he shall inherit many, and he shall divide the spoils of the mighty; because his soul was delivered to death: and he was numbered among the transgressors; and he bore the sins of many, and was delivered because of their iniquities.
