Aịzaya 53
1 Onye kweere ozi anyị, ọ bụkwa nʼahụ onye ka e kpugheere ogwe aka Onyenwe anyị?
Who has believed our message? To whom has Yahweh’s arm been revealed?
2 Nʼihi na o tolitere nʼihu Onyenwe anyị dịka ome, dịka mgbọrọgwụ nke puputara nʼala kpọrọ nkụ. O nweghị ụdịdị ọma maọbụ ịma mma nke ga-eme ka anyị lee ya anya. O nweghị ihe ọbụla dị nʼụdịdị ya nke ga-eme ka ihe banyere ya masị anyị, maọbụ mee ka anyị chọsie ya ike.
For he grew up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of dry ground. He has no good looks or majesty. When we see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3 Ndị mmadụ ledara ya anya, jụkwa ya. Ọ bụ onye nwere ọtụtụ ihe mgbu, bụrụkwa onye hụrụ ọtụtụ ahụhụ. Ma anyị gbakụtara ya azụ, jụ ilenye anya nʼebe ọ nọ. E, anyị ledara ya anya, jụ ịgụ ya dịka ọ bụ ihe ọbụla.
He was despised and rejected by men, a man of suffering and acquainted with disease. He was despised as one from whom men hide their face; and we didn’t respect him.
4 Nʼezie, ihe mgbu niile anyị ka o buuru, burukwa ahụhụ nke ọrịa anyị niile, ma anyị gụrụ ya ka onye Chineke tara ahụhụ, onye o tiri ihe otiti, na onye o mekpara ahụ.
Surely he has borne our sickness and carried our suffering; yet we considered him plagued, struck by God, and afflicted.
5 Ma e tipụrụ ya ọnya nʼihi mmehie anyị: ọ bụkwa nʼihi ajọ omume anyị ka e ji merụchaa ya ahụ. E mere ka anyị nwee udo nʼihi ahụhụ ọ hụrụ; ọ bụkwa ubiri ụtarị dị ya nʼahụ mere anyị ji bụrụ ndị ahụ dị ike.
But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed.
6 Anyị niile akpafuola dịka igwe atụrụ; onye ọbụla nʼime anyị etinyela isi ya nʼụzọ nke aka ya. Ma Onyenwe anyị ebokwasịla ya ajọ omume anyị niile.
All we like sheep have gone astray. Everyone has turned to his own way; and Yahweh has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7 A kpagburu ya, mesie ya ihe ike, ma otu mkpụrụ okwu esighị ya nʼọnụ pụta. E duuru ya pụọ dịka atụrụ a na-aga igbu egbu, dịka atụrụ a na-akpachapụ ajị ya si anọ nwayọọ nʼihu ndị na-akpacha ya ajị, otu a ka o si nọdụ na-asagheghị ọnụ ya.
He was oppressed, yet when he was afflicted he didn’t open his mouth. As a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he didn’t open his mouth.
8 Site na mmegbu na ikpe ka e ji wepụ ya. Ma, onye nʼetiti ndị ọgbọ ya weliri olu kwuo okwu? Nʼihi na e bipụrụ ya site nʼala ndị dị ndụ; maka njehie ndị m ka e ji tie ya ihe.
He was taken away by oppression and judgment. As for his generation, who considered that he was cut off out of the land of the living and stricken for the disobedience of my people?
9 E nyefere ya ka e lie ya dịka onye na-emebi iwu, ọ bụkwa nʼetiti ndị ọgaranya ka e liri ya, ọ bụ ezie na o nweghị ihe ọjọọ ọbụla o mere, ọ dịkwaghị okwu aghụghọ si nʼọnụ ya pụta.
They made his grave with the wicked, and with a rich man in his death, although he had done no violence, nor was any deceit in his mouth.
10 Ma ọ bụ ọchịchọ Onyenwe anyị ịzọpịa ya, na ime ka ọ taa ahụhụ. Nʼihi na ọnwụ ya bụ aja a chụrụ nʼihi ikpe ọmụma nke mmehie. Ọ ga-ahụ ọtụtụ ụmụ na ụmụ ụmụ ya; ọ ga-adịkwa ndụ ogologo oge. Nzube Chineke niile ga-emezukwa site na ya.
Yet it pleased Yahweh to bruise him. He has caused him to suffer. When you make his soul an offering for sin, he will see his offspring. He will prolong his days and Yahweh’s pleasure will prosper in his hand.
11 Mgbe ọ hụsịrị ahụhụ, ọ ga-emesịa hụ ìhè nke ndụ, afọ ga-ejukwa ya, site nʼihe ọmụma ya, ka onye ezi omume ahụ, bụ ohu m ga-eme ka a gụọ ọtụtụ mmadụ dịka ndị ezi omume, ọ ga-ebukwa mmehie ha niile.
After the suffering of his soul, he will see the light and be satisfied. My righteous servant will justify many by the knowledge of himself; and he will bear their iniquities.
12 Nʼihi ya, aga m enye ya oke nʼetiti ndị bara ụba, ọ ga-esokwa ndị bụ dike keta ihe nkwata nʼagha, nʼihi na ọ wụpụrụ ndụ ya nye ọnwụ, a gụkọtara ya na ndị na-emebi iwu. Ma ya onwe ya buuru mmehie ọtụtụ mmadụ, rịọọkwara ndị na-emebi iwu arịrịọ.
Therefore I will give him a portion with the great. He will divide the plunder with the strong, because he poured out his soul to death and was counted with the transgressors; yet he bore the sins of many and made intercession for the transgressors.
