Isaya 53
1 Ndianiko akatenda zvatakaparidza, uye ruoko rwaJehovha rwakaratidzwa kuna aniko?
Ndani wakhulupirira zimene tanenazi; kapena ndani amene Yehova wamuzindikiritsa mphamvu zake?
2 Akamera pamberi pake sebukira nyoro, uye somudzi pavhu rakaoma. Akanga asina runako kana chimiro choumambo kuti atikwezve kwaari, hapana chatingada pakuratidzika kwake.
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.
3 Akazvidzwa uye akarambwa navanhu, murume wokusuwa, uye anoziva kutambudzika. Somunhu anovanzirwa chiso navanhu, akazvidzwa, uye isu hatina kumukudza.
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.
4 Zvirokwazvo akatakura matenda edu, uye akatakura kurwadziswa kwedu; asi isu takafunga kuti akarohwa naMwari, akarohwa naye uye akarwadziswa.
Ndithudi, iye anamva zowawa mʼmalo mwa ife; ndipo anasautsidwa mʼmalo mwathu. Koma ife tinkaganiza kuti ndi Mulungu amene akumulanga, kumukantha ndi kumusautsa.
5 Asi akabayiwa nokuda kwokudarika kwedu, akakuvadzwa nokuda kwezvakaipa zvedu; kurohwa kwakativigira rugare kwaiva pamusoro pake, uye namavanga ake takaporeswa.
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.
6 Isu tose takanga takarasika samakwai, mumwe nomumwe nenzira yake, asi Jehovha akaisa pamusoro pake kuipa kwedu tose.
Ife tonse, ngati nkhosa, tasochera, aliyense mwa ife akungodziyendera; ndipo Yehova wamusenzetsa zoyipa zathu zonse.
7 Akamanikidzwa uye akarwadziswa, asi haana kushamisa muromo wake; akatungamirirwa segwayana riri kundobayiwa, uye sokunyarara kwegwai pamberi pomuveuri waro, saizvozvo haana kushamisa muromo wake.
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.
8 Akabviswa achimanikidzwa uye akatongwa. Uye ndianiko angataura rudzi rwake? Nokuti akagurwa kubva panyika yavapenyu, nokuda kwokudarika kwavanhu vangu, akarohwa.
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?
9 Akapiwa guva rake pakati pavatadzi, uye akava navapfumi pakufa kwake, kunyange akanga asina kuita zvechisimba, uye kunyengera kusina kuwanikwa mumuromo make.
Anamukonzera manda ake pamodzi ndi anthu oyipa ndipo anamuyika mʼmanda pamodzi ndi anthu achuma, ngakhale kuti iye sanachite za chiwawa, kapena kuyankhula za chinyengo.
10 Asi kwakanga kuri kuda kwaJehovha kuti amukuvadze uye aite kuti atambudzike, uye kunyange zvazvo Jehovha akaita kuti upenyu hwake huve chipiriso chezvivi, achaona zvibereko zvake uye achawedzera mazuva ake, uye kuda kwaJehovha kuchabudirira muruoko rwake.
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.
11 Shure kwokutambudzika kwomweya wake, achaona chiedza choupenyu uye achagutsikana; nokuziva kwake, muranda wangu akarurama acharuramisira vazhinji, uye achatakura kuipa kwavo.
Atatha mazunzo a moyo wake, adzaona kuwala, ndipo adzakhutira. Mwa nzeru zake mtumiki wanga wolungamayo adzalungamitsa anthu ambiri, popeza adzasenza zolakwa zawo.
12 Naizvozvo ndichamupa mugove pakati pavakuru vakuru, uye achagoverana zvakapambwa navane simba, nokuti akadurura upenyu hwake kusvika parufu, akaverengwa pamwe chete navadariki. Nokuti akatakura chivi chavazhinji, akanyengeterera vadariki.
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.
