< Isaiah 53 >

1 Mamih kah olthang aka tangnah te unim? BOEIPA kah a ban u taengah nim a phoe.
Who hath believed our message? and to whom hath the arm of Jehovah been revealed?
2 Tedae a mikhmuh ah cahni banglam khaw rhamrhae diklai lamkah thing yung bangla rhoeng. Anih te a suisak om pawt tih rhuepomnah om pawh. Anih te m'hmuh vaengah a mueimae a om pawt dongah nim anih te n'nai uh eh.
For he grew 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 see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3 A hnaep uh tih hlang kah a hnawt a khoe la poeh. Nganboh aka yook hlang neh tloh aka ming la om. A maelhmai aka hlip bangla a hnaep dongah anih te n'nawtna uh pawh.
He was despised, and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and as one from whom men hide their face he was despised; and we esteemed him not.
4 Mamih kah tlohtat te amah loh a phueih tih mamih kah nganboh te khaw a tloeng thil. Tedae kaimih loh anih te Pathen kah a ben neh a ngawn tih a phaep la m'poek uh.
Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows; yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 Mamih boekoek dongah anih poeih uh. Mamih kathaesainah kongah anih te a phop. Mamih kah rhoepnah ham thuituennah te anih dongla cul. A boengha loh mamih he n'hoeih sak.
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 Mamih boeih he tu bangla kho m'hmang uh. Hlang long he amah mah kah khosing la n'hooi uh coeng. Te dongah mamih boeih kathaesainah te BOEIPA loh anih pum dongah a hong.
All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and Jehovah hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7 Anih a tueihno tih a phaep dae maeh la a khuen boiva bangla a ka ang pawh. Tumanu bangla a mul aka vok pah mikhmuh ah tum uh tih a ka ang pawh.
He was oppressed, yet when he was afflicted he opened not his mouth; as a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before its shearers is dumb, so he opened not his mouth.
8 Thongtla neh laitloeknah dongah a khuen. A thawnpuei te unim aka lolmang eh? Ka pilnam kah boekoek neh amih kah tloh kongah anih vik te mulhing khohmuen lamloh a hlap.
By oppression and judgment he was taken away; and as for his generation, who [among them] considered that he was cut off out of the land of the living for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke [was due]?
9 Kuthlahnah te saii pawt tih a ka dongah thailatnah khaw om pawt. Te dae a phuel te halang rhoek taengla, a dueknah te hlanglen taengla a khueh pah.
And they made his grave with the wicked, and with a rich man in his death; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.
10 Anih loh a phop ham neh a nue ham khaw BOEIPA loh a ngaih. A hinglu he moeithennah la a khueh dongah a tiingan te khohnin a sen a hmuh ni. BOEIPA kah kutnaep vanbangla anih kut dongah a thaihtak sak ni.
Yet it pleased Jehovah 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 Jehovah shall prosper in his hand.
11 A hinglu loh thakthaenah a hmuh vetih, a mingnah khaw cung ni. Ka sal kah duengnah loh muep a tang sak vetih, amih kathaesainah khaw amah loh a phueih pah ni.
He shall see of the travail of his soul, [and] shall be satisfied: by the knowledge of himself shall my righteous servant justify many; and he shall bear their iniquities.
12 Te dongah anih ham hlangping lakli ah boe ka soep pah vetih, kutbuem a len la ka hmoel pahni. Anih long tah a hinglu te dueknah ham a kingling tih, boekoek rhoek neh a tae thil. Amah loh hlangping kah tholhnah te a phueih tih boekoek rhoek ham khaw a hloep pah.
Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he poured out his soul unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors: yet he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
