< Yesaia 53 >
1 Hena na wagye yɛn asɛm no adi? na Awurade abasa no, hena so na ada adi?
Ngubani okholwe umbiko wethu? Njalo ingalo yeNkosi yembulelwe bani?
2 Onyin wɔ nʼanim te sɛ dua amono ketewa bi, te sɛ ntin a efi asase wosee mu. Onni ahoɔfɛ anaa anuonyam a ɛbɛtwetwe yɛn akɔ ne nkyɛn. Ne tebea mu nni biribiara a ɛbɛma yɛapɛ no.
Ngoba uzakhula phambi kwakhe njengesihlahla esibuthakathaka, lanjengempande emhlabathini owomileyo; kalasimo kumbe ubuhle; lapho simbona, kalakubukeka ukuthi simloyise.
3 Nnipa bɔɔ no ahohora na wɔpoo no, Ɔwerɛhowni a onim ɔyaw. Te sɛ obi a nnipa de wɔn anim hintaw no wobuu no animtiaa na yɛammu no.
Uyeyiswa njalo udelelwa ngabantu; umuntu wezinsizi, njalo ejwayele inhlungu; kwangathi sifihla ubuso kuye; weyiswa, kasimnanzanga.
4 Ampa ara ɔfaa yɛn mmerɛwyɛ, na ɔsoaa yɛn awerɛhow, nanso yebuu no sɛ Onyankopɔn na watwe nʼaso. Yebuu no sɛ, Onyankopɔn na wabɔ no na wadwerɛw no.
Isibili yena wathwala inhlungu zethu, waphatha insizi zethu; kanti thina sathi ujezisiwe, utshayiwe nguNkulunkulu, njalo uhlutshiwe.
5 Nanso yɛn mmarato nti na wopiraa no, yɛn amumɔyɛ nti na wɔdwerɛw no; asotwe a ɛde asomdwoe brɛɛ yɛn no daa no so, na nʼapirakuru mu na yenya ayaresa.
Kodwa walinyazwa ngenxa yeziphambeko zethu, wachotshozwa ngenxa yobubi bethu; ukujeziswa kokuthula kwethu kwakuphezu kwakhe, langemivimvinya yakhe thina sisilisiwe.
6 Yɛn nyinaa ayerayera te sɛ nguan, yɛn mu biara afa ne kwan; na Awurade de yɛn nyinaa amumɔyɛ ato no so.
Thina sonke njengezimvu siduhile; saphendukela ngulowo lalowo endleleni yakhe; njalo iNkosi yehlisele phezu kwakhe ububi bethu sonke.
7 Wɔhyɛɛ no so, yɛɛ no ayayade, nanso wammue nʼano; wɔde no kɔɔ te sɛ oguamma a wɔrekokum no. Sɛnea oguamma yɛ komm wɔ ne nwitwitwafo anim no, saa ara na wammue nʼano.
Wacindezelwa njalo yena wahlutshwa, kube kanti kawuvulanga umlomo wakhe; walethwa ekuhlatshweni njengewundlu, lanjengemvu ithule phambi kwabagundi bayo, laye kawuvulanga umlomo wakhe.
8 Wɔnam nhyɛso ne atemmu so faa no kɔe. Na hena na obetumi aka nʼasefo ho asɛm? Efisɛ woyii no fii asase yi so; me nkurɔfo mmarato nti wɔtwee nʼaso.
Wasuswa ekucindezelweni lekwahlulelweni; njalo ngubani ongakhuluma ngesizukulwana sakhe? Ngoba waqunywa wasuswa elizweni labaphilayo; ngenxa yesiphambeko sabantu bami watshaywa.
9 Wɔyɛɛ ne da wɔ abɔnefo mu, na ne wu mu wɔde no too adefo mu ɛwɔ mu, wanyɛ akakabensɛm biara, na obiara ante atosɛm biara amfi nʼano.
Wenza ingcwaba lakhe kanye lababi, njalo kanye lonothileyo ekufeni kwakhe; ngoba engenzanga okubi, njalo kungekho inkohliso emlonyeni wakhe.
10 Nanso ɛyɛɛ Awurade pɛ sɛ ɔbɛdwerɛw no ama no ahu amane mpo ɔde ne nkwa yɛ afɔdi afɔrebɔde, obehu nʼasefo na ne nna bɛware, na Awurade pɛ bɛkɔ so wɔ ne nsam.
Kanti kwayithokozisa iNkosi ukumchoboza, yamenza adabuke. Lapho uzakwenza umphefumulo wakhe umnikelo wesono, uzabona inzalo yakhe, elule izinsuku zakhe, lentokoziso yeNkosi izaphumelela esandleni sakhe.
11 Ne kra amanehunu akyi, obehu nkwa hann, na ne koma atɔ ne yam; na ne suahu mu me somfo treneeni no bebu bebree bem, na wasoa wɔn amumɔyɛ.
Uzabona okuvela ekuhluphekeni komphefumulo wakhe, eneliswe; ngolwazi lwayo, inceku yami elungileyo izalungisisa abanengi, ngoba yona izathwala ububi babo.
12 Enti mɛma no kyɛfa wɔ atitiriw mu, na ɔne ahoɔdenfo bɛkyɛ asade efisɛ ɔde ne nkwa too hɔ maa owu, na wɔkan no fraa mmaratofo. Ɔsoaa nnipa bebree bɔne, na odi maa mmaratofo.
Ngakho ngizayabela kanye labakhulu, yabelane impango kanye labalamandla; ngoba yathulula umphefumulo wayo ekufeni, yabalwa ndawonye labaphambeki; njalo yona yathwala isono sabanengi, yalabhelela abaphambeki.
