< Johan 19 >

1 Acunüng, Pilat naw Jesuh cehpüi lü a kpaih.
So Pilate then took Jesus, and flogged him.
2 Yekape naw nghling lukhüm pyang u lü ami ngbüngsak. Acun käna, jih sennu ngvüihsak u lü,
The soldiers twisted thorns into a crown, and put it on his head, and dressed him in a purple garment.
3 a peia law u lü, “Judahea Sangpuxang, xüng soa” ti lü a hmai ami kbeih.
And they kept coming up to him and saying, "Greetings, King of the Jews." and they struck him with their hands.
4 Pilat naw lut law betü lü, “Teng u, thih vai awnga mkhyenak i pi am hmu nawng ti nami ksing vaia, nami veia ka lawpüi beki” a ti.
Then Pilate went out again, and said to them, "Look, I am bringing him out to you, that you may know that I find no basis for a charge against him."
5 Jesuh cun nghling lukhüm ngbüng lü jih sennu pi ngvaih lü kpunga lut lawki. Pilat naw, “Teng u, hina khyang” a ti.
Then Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. And he said to them, "Look, here is the man."
6 Ktaiyü ngvaie ja Temple ngänge naw ami hmu ja, “Kutlamktung üng taiha, kutlamktung üng taiha” ti lü ngpyangkie. Pilat naw, “Nangmi naw cehpüi u lü, kutlamktung üng taih ua; kei naw ta thih awng vai a mkhyenak am hmu veng” a ti.
When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they shouted, saying, "Crucify. Crucify." Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves, and crucify him, for I find no basis for a charge against him."
7 Judahe naw, “Pamhnama Capaa mhnüneikia kyase, kami thuma tia kba, thi khaia nglawi ve” ti lü ami msang.
The Jewish leaders answered him, "We have a law, and by that law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God."
8 Pilat naw acun a ngjak ja kyühei law dämdäm lü,
When therefore Pilate heard this saying, he was more afraid.
9 a Bawingawhnaka cit be lü, “Nang hawia ka naw na lawki ni?” a ti. Jesuh naw mkhap mat am pi am msang be.
He entered into the Praetorium again, and said to Jesus, "Where are you from?" But Jesus gave him no answer.
10 Pilat naw, “Am na na msang hlüki aw? Ning khyah be vai ja kutlamktung üng ning taih vai hin keia mkhyaha kya khai, ti cun ksinga” a ti.
Pilate therefore said to him, "Are you not speaking to me? Do you not know that I have power to release you, and have power to crucify you?"
11 Jesuh naw, “Pamhnam naw a ning pet pänga phäh däk ni, ka khana khyaibahnak na tak ve. Acunakyase, kei hin na veia ning msum lawki cen mkhyekatnak akdäm bawk pawhki ni” a ti.
Jesus answered, "You would have no power at all against me, unless it were given to you from above. Therefore he who delivered me to you has greater sin."
12 Pilat naw acun a ngjak üngkhyüh Jesuh a mhlät vaia lam suiki. Acunsepi Judahe naw ngpyang u lü, “Hina khyang na mhlät üng Emperoa püia käh na kya khai. Sangpuxanga mhnüneiki naküt cun Emperoa yee ni” ami ti.
At this, Pilate was seeking to release him, but the Jewish leaders shouted, saying, "If you release this man, you are not Caesar's friend. Everyone who makes himself a king speaks against Caesar."
13 Pilat naw acun a ngjak ja Jesuh luh lawpüi lü, Hebru läk am Kabbata ami ti Ngthumkhyahnak Lungsüma khana ngawki.
When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Jesus out, and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called "The Pavement," but in Hebrew, "Gabbatha."
14 Acuna mhnüp cun Lätnak Pawi am a pha ham mhnüp mat a hlüa mhnüpa; mhnüp ngsunga kyase, Pilat naw Judahea veia, “Teng u, nami sangpuxang” a ti.
Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, at about noon. He said to the Jewish leaders, "Look, here is your King."
15 Amimi naw ngpyang u lü, “Hnima, hnima, mkhyüha, kutlamktung üng taiha” ami ti. Pilat naw, “Nami sangpuxang, kutlamktung üng ka taih vai nami hlüeiki aw?” a ti. Ktaiyü ngvaie naw, “Emperoa thea sangpuxang akce am ta u nawng” ti lü, ami msang.
They shouted, "Away with him. Away with him. Crucify him." Pilate said to them, "Should I crucify your King?" The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar."
16 Acunüng, Pilat naw Jesuh cun kutlamktung üng taih vaia a jah msum. Jesuh cun ami cehpüi.
So then he delivered him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus.
17 Jesuh naw amäta phäha kutlamktung kawt lü ‘Luyuh Hnün’ ami ti, Hebru läk am Kolkothaa citki.
And he went out, carrying the cross himself, to the place called "The Place of a Skull," which is called in Hebrew, "Golgotha,"
18 Acuia kutlamktung üng khyang nghngih am ami jah taih yüm. A peia mat cim jah taih u lü Jesuh anglung üng ami taih.
where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the middle.
19 Pilat naw, “Nazaret Jesuh, Judahea Sangpuxang” ti lü kca yuk lü kutlamktung khana a taih.
Pilate wrote a title also, and put it on the cross. There was written, "JESUS THE NAZOREAN, THE KING OF THE JEWS."
20 Jesuh kutlamktung üng ami taihnaka hnün cun Jerusalem mlüha peia kyaki. Acuna kca cun Hebru, Latin ja Krik läke üng ami yuka kyase Judah khyang khawhah naw khekie.
Therefore many Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.
21 Ktaiyü ngvaie naw Pilat aw, “Judahea Sangpuxang” ti lü käh yuka, “Kei, Judahea Sangpuxang ni, ti ve” ti lü yuka’” ami ti.
The chief priests of the Jewish people therefore said to Pilate, "Do not write, 'The King of the Jews,' but, 'he said, I am King of the Jews.'"
22 Pilat naw, “Ka yuk päng cen ka yuka kba ve se” ti lü a jah msang.
Pilate answered, "What I have written, I have written."
23 Yekape naw kutlamktung khana Jesuh ami taih päng üng a suisake jah lo u lü, kphyüa ktek u lü mat cima ami ng’yatei. Ak’uma a phyang jih cun am xüi u, alu üngka naw ale cäpa taha kyaki.
Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his clothes and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
24 Yekape naw, “Käh mi ktek vai, u naw a bi vai cungkek mi kphawng vai u” ami ti. Acun cun Pamhnama cangcim üng, “Ka suisake jah ng’yetei u lü, ka kcu nglünglawknak khaie ni” ti a küm lawnak vaia kyaki. Acun cun yekape naw ami pawha kyaki.
Then they said to one another, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to decide whose it will be," that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which says, "They divided my clothes among themselves, and for my clothing they cast a lot." Therefore the soldiers did these things.
25 Jesuha kutlamktung peia, Jesuha nu ja Kalawphaa a khyu Marih ja Marih Makdalin ngdüikie.
But there were standing by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleopas, and Mary Magdalene.
26 Jesuh naw a nu ja a kphyanak axüisaw a peia ngdüi ni se jah hmu lü, a nu üng, “Na capa ta ani ni” a ti.
Therefore when Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing there, he said to his mother, "Woman, look, your son."
27 Axüisaw üng, “Ani ni na nu” a ti. Acunüng tün lü, acuna axüisaw naw Jesuha nu cun a ima a cehpüi.
Then he said to the disciple, "Look, your mother." From that hour, the disciple took her to his own home.
28 Acunkäna, atuh ta ahmäi naküt kümcei pängki ti Jesuh naw ksing lü, cangcima kümnak vaia, “Tui cawi veng” a ti.
After this, Jesus, knowing that all things were now finished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, "I am thirsty."
29 Acuia Capyitui kpaih k’am mat ami tak. Hisop Capyitui k'am üng kphum lü cung üng taihkie naw a mpyawng üng ami jeng sun.
A vessel full of sour wine was set there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop, and held it at his mouth.
30 Jesuh naw Capyitui kpaih a awk päng ja “Ngpäng ve” a ti. Acunüng, a ngmüm üng a sak päihki.
When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, "It is finished." He bowed his head, and gave up his spirit.
31 Judah ngvaie naw kutlamktung üng ami taiha khaw jah k'ek lü, ami yawke ami jah khyak vaia Pilat ami kthäh. Isenitiüng, acuna mhnüp cun Amhma mhnüpa kyaki. Angawi Sabbath mhnüp (Lawkia Sabbath mhnüp cun Judahea thuma aktäa ngcingcaihkia mhnüpa kyaki) üng ami yawke kutlamktung üng a ngtaihei vai am jum u.
Therefore the Jewish leaders, because it was the Preparation Day, so that the bodies would not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
32 Yekape law u lü Jesuh am atänga ami jah taih yüm xawia ani khawe cun ami jah k’ek.
Therefore the soldiers came, and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who was crucified with him;
33 Acunsepi, Jesuha veia ami law üng, Jesuh thi pängki ti ksing u lü a khawe am jah k’ek u.
but when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.
34 Acunsepi yekape üngka mat naw Jesuha kpem kcei am a sun. Acunüng thi ja tui ngsawi law yümki xawi. (
However one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.
35 Hmuki mat naw pyen lü ngsingsak pängki. A ngsingsak pi cangki. Nami jum vaia a ngthu pyen cangki ti pi ani naw ksing lawki.)
He who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, that you may believe.
36 Acun cun, “A yuh mat pi käh ek khai” ti lü, Cangcima a küm lawnak vaia kyaki.
For these things happened, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, "A bone of him will not be broken."
37 Acuna thea cangcim naw, “Khyange naw kcei am a kpem ami sun cun hmu khaie” pi Cangcim naw ti hamki.
Again another Scripture says, "They will look on him whom they pierced."
38 Acunkäna Arimahte mlüha ka Josep, Jesuha axüisaw, acunsepi Judah ngvaie a jah kyüha phäh, ampyua veki. Ani naw Jesuha yawk a cehpüi vaia Pilat kthäh se, Pilat naw a khyah. Josep naw law lü Jesuha a yawk cun a cehpüi.
After these things, Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jewish leaders, asked of Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission. He came therefore and took away his body.
39 Ahlana mthana Jesuha veia lawkia Nikawdim naw mura ng'ui ja aloe jah kcaw, khin mku bang cehpüi lü Josep am citki xawi.
Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds.
40 Jesuha yawk cun lo ni lü Judahea ami ng’utei khawia thuma, mura ng’ui ja jih am ani hlawp.
So they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, according to Jewish burial practice.
41 Kutlamktung üng ami taihnaka peia ngvawng mat veki. Acuna ngvawng üng u pi am ami k’utnak khawia lungdü kthai mat veki.
Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden. In the garden was a new tomb in which no one had ever yet been placed.
42 Angawi cun Judahea Sabbath mhnüpa kya lü, lungdü ng'etkia kyase, acun üng Jesuh ami k’ut.
Then because of the Jewish Preparation Day (for the tomb was nearby) they put Jesus there.
