< Isaiah 53 >

1 Mamih kah olthang aka tangnah te unim? BOEIPA kah a ban u taengah nim a phoe.
Who would have believed our report? and the arm of the Lord—over whom hath it 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.
Yea, he grew up like a small shoot before him, and as a root out of a dry land: he had no form nor comeliness, so that we should look at him; and no countenance, so 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 shunned by men; a man of pains, and acquainted with disease; and as one who hid his face from us was he 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.
But only our diseases did he bear himself, and our pains he carried: while we indeed esteemed 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.
Yet he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement for our peace was upon him; and through his bruises was healing granted to us.
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.
We all like sheep went astray; every one to his own way did we turn; and the Lord let befall him the guilt 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, and he was also taunted, yet he opened not his mouth; like the lamb which is led to the slaughter, and like an ewe before her shearers is dumb; and 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.
Through oppression and through judicial punishment was he taken away; but his generation—who could tell, that he was cut away out of the land of life, [that] for the transgressions of my people the plague was laid on him?
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 he let his grave be made with the wicked, and with the [godless] rich at his death; although he had done no violence, and there was no 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.
But the Lord was pleased to crush him through disease: when [now] his soul hath brought the trespass-offering, then shall he see [his] seed, live many days, and the pleasure of the Lord 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.
[Freed] from the trouble of his soul shall he see [the good] and be satisfied: through his knowledge shall my righteous servant bring the many to righteousness, while he will 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 many, and with the strong shall he divide the spoil; because he poured out his soul unto death, and with transgressors was he numbered: while he bore the sin of many, and for the transgressors he let [evil] befall him.
