< Yohana 19 >

1 Nipele, che Pilato ŵalamwile kuti Che Yesu ajigalikwe, aputikwe mbokola.
Then Pilate took Jesus and had Him flogged.
2 Ŵangondo nombe ŵakolosisye chindu mpela singwa ja miiŵa, ŵambwasisye Che Yesu mu ntwe wao ni kuntakusya mwinjilo wa chimwenye.
The soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns, set it on His head, and dressed Him in a purple robe.
3 Ŵaliji nkwaichilila ni kuti, “Tukunkomasya, Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi!” Nipele ŵamputile majanda.
And they went up to Him again and again, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and slapping Him in the face.
4 Che Pilato ŵakopweche sooni paasa ni kwasalila Ŵayahudi, “Nnole, ngunyikanawo paasa, mmanyilile kuti uneji nganinansimana ni magambo gagaligose ga kunlamula mundu ju.”
Once again Pilate came out and said to the Jews, “Look, I am bringing Him out to you to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against Him.”
5 Nipele Che Yesu ŵakopweche paasa ali awasile chindu mpela singwa ja miiŵa mu ntwe mwao ni mwinjilo wa chimwenye. Che Pilato ŵasalile Ŵayahudi, “Nnole mundu nsyene ni aju.”
When Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, “Here is the man!”
6 Achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakulindilila Nyuumba ja Akunnungu paŵambweni Che Yesu ŵanyanyisye, “Mwaŵambe pansalaba! Mwaŵambe pansalaba!” Che Pilato ŵaasalile, “Munjigale mwachinsyene nkaŵambe pansalaba, pakuŵa uneji ngangugawona magambo gagaligose gakunlamula mundu ju.”
As soon as the chief priests and officers saw Him, they shouted, “Crucify Him! Crucify Him!” “You take Him and crucify Him,” Pilate replied, “for I find no basis for a charge against Him.”
7 Ŵayahudi ŵajanjile, “Uweji tukwete malajisyo ni kwa malajisyo go ikusachilwa aweje, ligongo alitesile kuŵa Mwana jwa Akunnungu.”
“We have a law,” answered the Jews, “and according to that law He must die, because He declared Himself to be the Son of God.”
8 Che Pilato paŵagapilikene maloŵe go ŵapundile kogopa.
When Pilate heard this statement, he was even more afraid,
9 Nipele ŵajinjile sooni mu nyuumba jakwe, ŵambusisye Che Yesu, “Ana mmweji nkutyochela kwapi?” Nambo Che Yesu ngananjanga chachili chose.
and he went back into the Praetorium. “Where are You from?” he asked. But Jesus gave no answer.
10 Che Pilato ŵansalile, “Ana ngankusaka kuŵecheta ni une? Ana ngankumanyilila kuti ngwete ulamusi wa kungopola pane kummamba pansalaba?”
So Pilate said to Him, “Do You refuse to speak to me? Do You not know that I have authority to release You and authority to crucify You?”
11 Che Yesu ŵanjanjile, “Ngankakole ulamusi wauli wose kwa uneji ngankapegwe ni Akunnungu. Kwa ligongo lyo mundu jwambeleche uneji kukwenu jwelejo apundile kuŵa ni sambi syejinji.”
Jesus answered, “You would have no authority over Me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed Me over to you is guilty of greater sin.”
12 Chitandile pelepo, che Pilato ŵasosile litala lya kwalechelela Che Yesu. Nambo Ŵayahudi ŵanyanyisye, “Mwannechelelaga mundu ju, mmwejo nganimma mbusanga jwa mwenye jwa ku Loma, pakuŵa mundu jwalijose jwakulitenda mwenye akunkanila mwenye jwankulu jwa ku Loma!”
From then on, Pilate tried to release Him, but the Jews kept shouting, “If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar. Anyone who declares himself a king is defying Caesar.”
13 Nipele che Pilato paŵagapilikene maloŵe go ŵanyichenawo Che Yesu paasa, ni nsyene ŵatemi pa chitengu cha kulamula, pelepo pakuŵilanjikwa, “Luŵala lwa Maganga.” Mchiebulania, Gabata.
When Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat on the judgment seat at a place called the Stone Pavement, which in Hebrew is Gabbatha.
14 Lyuŵa lyaliji pamtwe, lyuŵa lyakuŵichila chile Pasaka. Che Pilato ŵaasalile Ŵayahudi, “Mwenye jwenu aju!”
It was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about the sixth hour. And Pilate said to the Jews, “Here is your King!”
15 Ŵanyawo ŵanyanyisye, “Mwaulaje! Mwaulaje! Mwaŵambe pansalaba!” Che Pilato ŵausisye, “Uli, nammambe mwenye jwenu?” Achakulu ŵambopesi ŵajanjile, “Uweji nganitukola mwenye jwine ikaŵe mwenye jwa ku Loma pe!”
At this, they shouted, “Away with Him! Away with Him! Crucify Him!” “Shall I crucify your King?” Pilate asked. “We have no king but Caesar,” replied the chief priests.
16 Pelepo che Pilato ŵampeleche Che Yesu mmakono mwa ŵangondo kuti akaaŵambe pansalaba. Nipele, ŵangondo ŵanjigele Che Yesu.
Then Pilate handed Jesus over to be crucified, and the soldiers took Him away.
17 Che Yesu ŵakopweche ali ajigele nsalaba wakwe kwaula kwiuto kwakukuŵilanjikwa, “Chikalakasa cha Ntwe”, Mchiebulania pakuŵilanjikwa Goligota.
Carrying His own cross, He went out to The Place of the Skull, which in Hebrew is called Golgotha.
18 Pelepo ni paŵaŵambile Che Yesu, ni ŵandu ŵane ŵaŵili pamo nawo, jwine kunchiji ni jwine kundyo kwao ni Che Yesu pambindikati.
There they crucified Him, and with Him two others, one on each side, with Jesus in the middle.
19 Che Pilato ŵalembile chimanyisyo ni ŵachiŵisile pachanya nsalaba. Ni chimanyisyo cho chalembekwe yelei, “Che Yesu jwa ku Nasaleti, Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi.”
Pilate also had a notice posted on the cross. It read: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
20 Nipele Ŵayahudi ŵajinji ŵachisyomile chimanyisyo cho pakuŵa paŵaŵambile Che Yesu pala paliji chiŵandi ni musi. Sooni chimanyisyo cho chalembekwe Mchiebulania ni Chilatini ni Chigiliki.
Many of the Jews read this sign, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.
21 Nipele achakulu ŵambopesi ŵa Ŵayahudi ŵaasalile che Pilato kuti, “Nkalemba, ‘Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi,’ nambo mundu ju ŵatite, ‘Uneji ndili Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi.’”
So the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but only that He said, ‘I am the King of the Jews.’”
22 Che Pilato ŵaasalile, “Chilembile, nembile!”
Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
23 Ŵangondo paŵamasile kwaŵamba Che Yesu pansalaba, ŵajigele iwalo yao ni ŵagaŵenye maunjili ncheche, jwangondo jwalijose liunjili limo. Sooni ŵajigele mwinjilo wakwe, wanganiukola papatotekwe, waliji chipande chimo chachiluchikwe kutyochela mwinani mpaka paasi.
When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they divided His garments into four parts, one for each soldier, with the tunic remaining. It was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom.
24 Nipele ŵangondo wo ŵasalilene, “Tunapapulanye nambo tutende gudugudu kuti uwe wacheni.” Yeleyo yatendekwe kuti gamalile Malembelo ga Akunnungu gagakuti, “Ŵagaŵene iwalo yangu, ni mwinjilo wangu ŵatendele gudugudu.” Yeleyo ni yatite pakupanganya ŵangondo wo.
So they said to one another, “Let us not tear it. Instead, let us cast lots to see who will get it.” This was to fulfill the Scripture: “They divided My garments among them, and cast lots for My clothing.” So that is what the soldiers did.
25 Pachiŵandi ni nsalaba u Che Yesu ŵajimi achikulugwe Che Yesu ni apwao achikulugwe ni che Maliamu ŵankwawo che Kileopa ni che Maliamu jwa musi wa ku Magidala.
Near the cross of Jesus stood His mother and her sister, as well as Mary the wife of Clopas and Mary Magdalene.
26 Che Yesu paŵambweni achikulugwe ni jwakulijiganya juŵannonyele nnope jula ajimi kuŵandikana ni pepala, ŵaasalile achikulugwe, “Amao, jwelejo ni mwanagwenu.”
When Jesus saw His mother and the disciple whom He loved standing nearby, He said to His mother, “Woman, here is your son.”
27 Sooni ŵansalile jwakulijiganya jula kuti, “Nnole, jwelejo ni achikulu ŵenu.” Ni kutandila lyuŵa lyo jwakulijiganya jo ŵanjigele che Maliamu kuti akatame nawo kumangwakwe.
Then He said to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” So from that hour, this disciple took her into his home.
28 Che Yesu ŵaimanyilile kuti yose yaliji imalile, ni Malembelo ga Akunnungu kuti gamalile, ŵatite, “Jingwete njota.”
After this, knowing that everything had now been accomplished, and to fulfill the Scripture, Jesus said, “I am thirsty.”
29 Chapali kweleko chiŵiga chigumbele divai jakuipa. Nipele, ŵajigele chindu mpela lidodoki ni ŵatoŵele mu divai mo ni kutaŵilila pachitela chachikuŵilanjikwa esopo ni kuchiŵika pakang'wa pa Che Yesu.
A jar of sour wine was sitting there. So they soaked a sponge in the wine, put it on a stalk of hyssop, and lifted it to His mouth.
30 Che Yesu paŵamasile kupegwa divai jo, ŵatite, “Yose imalile!” Ni ŵakotamisye ntwe wao ni kwasika.
When Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished.” And bowing His head, He yielded up His spirit.
31 Lyaliji lyuŵa lya kuŵichila chile kwa kupumulila likanaŵe Lyuŵa lya Pasaka. Nipele achakulu ŵa Ŵayahudi nganasaka iilu itaame pa nsalaba pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila ligongo Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila lyaliji lyuŵa lyajikape. Kwapele ŵaŵendile che Pilato apokosole makongolo ga ŵele ŵaŵaŵambikwe pa nsalaba ni kuitulusya iilu yao.
It was the day of Preparation, and the next day was a High Sabbath. In order that the bodies would not remain on the cross during the Sabbath, the Jews asked Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies removed.
32 Nipele ŵangondo ŵajawile ni kugapokosola makongolo ga mundu jwaandanda ni jwaaŵili ŵaŵaliji aŵambikwe pansalaba pamo ni Che Yesu.
So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man who had been crucified with Jesus, and those of the other.
33 Nambo paŵaichilile Che Yesu, ŵaiweni kuti awile, kwapele nganagapokosola makongolo gao.
But when they came to Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs.
34 Nambo jwangondo jumo ŵansomile Che Yesu mpaamba pa luŵalati, ni papopo jakopweche miasi ni meesi.
Instead, one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water flowed out.
35 Nombe juŵaiweni yeleyo ilinkutendekwa aŵalasile umboni melepe ni ŵanyamwe nkombole kukulupilila. Ni umboni wasasile uli usyene, sooni jwelejo akumanyilila kuti akusala usyene.
The one who saw it has testified to this, and his testimony is true. He knows that he is telling the truth, so that you also may believe.
36 Yelei yatendekwe kuti gamalile Malembelo ga Akunnungu gagakuti, “Ngapagwa liupa lyao lichilipokoswe.”
Now these things happened so that the Scripture would be fulfilled: “Not one of His bones will be broken.”
37 Nipele Malembelo ga Akunnungu gakusala sooni, “Chiŵalole ŵeŵala ŵaŵansomile.”
And, as another Scripture says: “They will look on the One they have pierced.”
38 Payamasile yeleyo che Yusufu jwa ku Alimataya, ŵaŵendile che Pilato kuti achitulusye chiilu chi Che Yesu pa nsalaba. Che Yusufu ŵaliji jwakulijiganya jwao Che Yesu, nambo nganalilosyaga, pakuŵa ŵajogopaga achakulu ŵa Ŵayahudi. Nipele che Pilato ŵajitichisye. Che Yusufu ŵajawile ni kuchijigala chiilu chi Che Yesu.
Afterward, Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus (but secretly for fear of the Jews), asked Pilate to let him remove the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission, so he came and removed His body.
39 Che Yusufu ŵalongene ni che Nikodemu, che Nikodemu ju ni jwejula juŵajaulile Che Yesu chilo kundanda ko, ŵaiche ali ajigele mauta gakununjila yambone ga manemane kuwanganya ni ubani, mpela mbiisi saba ni ibaba iŵili.
Nicodemus, who had previously come to Jesus at night, also brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds.
40 Nipele ŵachijigele chiilu chi Che Yesu ni kuchiŵijilila mu nguo jeswela pamo ni yakununjila mpela chisyoŵelo cha Ŵayahudi katema ka kusika.
So they took the body of Jesus and wrapped it in linen cloths with the spices, according to the Jewish burial custom.
41 Nambo peuto paŵaŵambikwe Che Yesu pala wapali ngunda wa mwana, ni mu ngunda mo mwaliji mwana lilembe lya sambano mwakanaŵichikwa mundu jwalijose.
Now there was a garden in the place where Jesus was crucified, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid.
42 Nipele ligongo lyaliji lyuŵa lya Ŵayahudi kuliŵika chile kupumulila, ni sooni pakuŵa lilembe lyo lyaliji pachiŵandi, ŵachiŵisile chiilu chi Che Yesu mwelemo.
And because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and the tomb was nearby, they placed Jesus there.
