< Isaiah 53 >

1 Mwet uh topuk, “Ku su lukun ku in lulalfongi ma kut srumun inge? Su ac ku in liye poun LEUM GOD in ma inge?
Who has believed what they heard from us, and to whom has the arm of Yahweh been revealed?
2 Ma lungse lun LEUM GOD pa inge, tuh mwet kulansap lal In kapak oana soko sak fusr ma yoki ac okahla in acn pao. El tia mangol ac el tia pac kato. Wanginna ma ac oru kut in lohang nu sel. Wangin ma wo kacl, ku ma fal in pwen mutasr nu sel. Wangin ma oru kut in ke apkuran nu yorol.
For he grew up before Yahweh like a sapling, and like a sprout out of parched earth; he had no remarkable appearance or splendor; when we saw him, there was no beauty to attract us.
3 Kut srungal ac sisella. El mutangla keok ac waiok. Wanginna mwet ngetang nu sel. Kut pilesral ac tiana lohang nu sel.
He was despised and rejected by people; a man of sorrows, and one familiar with pain. Like one from whom men hide their faces, he was despised; and we considered him insignificant.
4 “A el mutangla keok su fal in orek nu sesr, Ac waiok su ac ma lasr. Ke orek ouinge nu sel, kut pangon mu Mwe keok inge kaiyuk lun God nu sel.
But surely he has borne our sicknesses and carried our sorrows; yet we thought he was being punished by God, struck by God, and afflicted.
5 A kanteyuki el ke sripen ma koluk lasr, Sringsring el ke ma koluk kut orala. Kut kwela ke sripen kalya ma el keok kac, Akwoyeyukla kut ke sringsring ma el eis.
But he was pierced because of our rebellious deeds; he was crushed because of our sins. The punishment for our peace was on him, and with his wounds we are healed.
6 Kut nukewa oana sheep tuhlac, Kais sie sesr fahsr ke inkanek lal sifacna. A LEUM GOD El filiya facl Kaiyuk su fal in ma nu sesr nukewa.
We all like sheep have gone astray; we have each turned to his own way, and Yahweh has placed on him the iniquity of us all.
7 “Orek El arulana koluk, a el pusisel in mutangla; El tiana fahkla sie kas. Oana soko sheep fusr ma akola in anwuki, Oana soko sheep ma kokola in kalkulla, El tiana fahkla sie kas.
He was oppressed; yet when he humbled himself, he did not open his mouth; as a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth.
8 Elos sruokilya, ac nununkal, ac kololla nu ke misa, A wangin sie lohang nu ke ongoiya lal. Anwuki el ke sripen ma koluk lun mwet lasr.
By coercion and judgment he was condemned; who from that generation thought anymore about him? But he was cut off from the land of the living; because of the offenses of my people the penalty was put on him.
9 Filiyuki el in sie kulyuk yurin mwet koluk, El pukpuki inmasrlon mwet kasrup, El ne tia orala kutena ma koluk, Ku fahkla sie kas kikiap.”
They placed his grave with the criminals, with a rich man in his death, although he had done no violence, nor had there been any deceit in his mouth.
10 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Oakwuk luk pa elan keok; Misa lal uh sie mwe kisa in ase nunak munas. Ouinge el fah liye fwilin tulik natul; Ac fah loes moul lal, Ac ke sripal, oakwuk luk fah orekla.
Yet it was Yahweh's will to crush him and make him ill. When he makes his life an offering for sin, he will see his offspring, he will prolong his days, and Yahweh's purpose will be accomplished through him.
11 Tukun sie moul na keok, el fah sifil insewowo; El fah etu lah el tia keok ke wangin. Mwet kulansap oaru luk, su nga insewowo kacl Fah polong kalyeiyuk lun mwet puspis, Ac ke sripal nga fah nunak munas nu selos.
After the suffering of his life, he will see light and be satisfied by his knowledge. My righteous servant will justify many; he will bear their iniquities.
12 Ouinge nga fah arulana akfulatyal, Ac sang acn sel inmasrlon mwet fulat ac ku. El sifacna asang moul lal Ac ipeis ke mwe ongoiya lun mwet koluk. El eis acn sin mwet koluk puspis, Ac el pre tuh in nunak munas nu selos.”
Therefore will I give him his portion among the multitudes, and he will divide the spoils with the many, because he exposed himself to death and was numbered with the transgressors. He bore the sin of many and made intercession for the transgressors.
