< Luka 22 >
1 Lyaŵandichile lyuŵa lyekulungwa lya mikate jangatajikwa chilungo lyalikuŵilanjikwa Pasaka.
Meanwhile the Festival of the Unleavened Bread, called the Passover, was approaching,
2 Achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ŵaliji nkusosa itajile pakwaulaga Che Yesu nambo ŵaliji nkwajogopa ŵandu.
and the High Priests and the Scribes were contriving how to destroy Him. But they feared the people.
3 Nipele Shetani ŵanjinjile che Yuda jwakuŵilanjikwa Isikaliote, jumo jwa achinduna kumi na mbili ŵala.
Satan, however, entered into Judas (the man called Iscariot) who was one of the Twelve.
4 Che Yuda ŵajawile ni kuŵechetesyana ni achakulu ŵambopesi ni achakulungwa ŵa ŵakulindilila Nyuumba ja Akunnungu itajile pakwakamusya kwakamula Che Yesu.
He went and conferred with the High Priests and Commanders as to how he should deliver Him up to them.
5 Nombewo ŵasengwile ni kwilana nawo kuti chiŵape mbiya.
This gave them great pleasure, and they agreed to pay him.
6 Che Yuda ŵajitichisye ni kutanda kusosa lipesa lyambone lyakwakamusya kwakamula Che Yesu pangali kumanyilila ŵandu.
He accepted their offer, and then looked out for an opportunity to betray Him when the people were not there.
7 Nipele, lyaiche lyuŵa lya mikate jangatajikwa chilungo. Iyoyo peyo ni lyuŵa lyalikusachilwa kusikita mwanangondolo jwa Pasaka.
When the day of the Unleavened Bread came--the day for the Passover lamb to be sacrificed--
8 Che Yesu ŵaatumile che Petulo ni che Yohana achitiji, “Njaulangane nkatukulumichisye chakulya cha Pasaka kuti tulye.”
Jesus sent Peter and John with instructions. "Go," He said, "and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat it."
9 Nombewo ŵausisye Che Yesu, “Ana nkusaka tukachikolochesye kwapi?”
"Where shall we prepare it?" they asked.
10 Ni ŵajanjile, “Mpilikanile! Pachinkajinjile pa musi po, chinkasimane ni jwannume ali atwichile lulo lwa meesi. Nkaakuye ŵelewo mpaka mu nyuumba jichakajinjile.
"You will no sooner have entered the city," He replied, "than you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water. Follow him into the house to which he goes,
11 Mwasalile asyene nyuumba jo, ‘Jwakwiganya akummusya, chili kwapi chuumba muchingalile chakulya cha Pasaka pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵangu?’
and say to the master of the house, "'The Rabbi asks you, Where is the room where I can eat the Passover with my disciples?'
12 Nombewo chakannosye chuumba chachikulungwa cha penani chachili ni indu yose yaikusachilwa mu chuumba. Nkakulumisye mwelemo.”
"And he will show you a large furnished room upstairs. There make your preparations."
13 Ŵajawile ni ŵaisimene indu yose ili mpela iŵatite pakusalilwa ni Che Yesu, nombewo ŵakulumisye chakulya cha Pasaka.
So they went and found all as He had told them; and they got the Passover ready.
14 Pakaiche katema, Che Yesu ŵatemi kulya pamo ni achinduna ŵakwe.
When the time was come, and He had taken His place at table, and the Apostles with Him,
15 Ŵasalile, “Najile kwannope kulya chakulya cha Pasaka pamo ni ŵanyamwe nganime kulagaswa.
He said to them, "Earnestly have I longed to eat this Passover with you before I suffer;
16 Pakuŵa ngunsalila kuti, nguulya sooni chakulya cha Pasaka mpaka pachiŵe isyene mu Umwenye wa Akunnungu.”
for I tell you that I certainly shall not eat one again till its full meaning has been brought out in the Kingdom of God."
17 Nipele Che Yesu ŵajigele chikombe ni paŵamasile kwatogolela Akunnungu ŵatite, “Mpochele ni mpelegane mwachimisyene.
Then, having received the cup and given thanks, He said, "Take this and share it among yourselves;
18 Pakuŵa ngunsalila kuti, chitandile sambano ngaang'wa sooni divai mpaka pachiuiche Umwenye wa Akunnungu.”
for I tell you that from this time I will never drink the produce of the vine till the Kingdom of God has come."
19 Sooni ŵajigele nkate ni kwatogolela Akunnungu, ŵagaŵenye ni kwapa achitiji, “Chelechi ni chiilu changu chachikutyochekwa ligongo lyenu. Ntendeje yeleyi kwa kungumbuchila une.”
Then, taking a Passover biscuit, He gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body which is being given on your behalf: this do in remembrance of me."
20 Iyoyo peyo paŵamasile kulya ni ŵajigele chikombe achitiji, “Achi chikombechi lili lilangano lya sambano lya Akunnungu lyalikutendekwa kwa miasi jangu jajikwitika kwa ligongo lyenu.
He gave them the cup in like manner, when the meal was over. "This cup," He said, "is the new Covenant ratified by my blood which is to be poured out on your behalf.
21 “Nambo, nnole! Jwejula jwakung'alauka ali papapa akulya pamo ni une.
Yet the hand of him who is betraying me is at the table with me.
22 Pakuŵa Mwana jwa Mundu chajaule kukuulagwa mpela iŵasachile Akunnungu, nambo ulaje uŵe kwa mundu jwakungalauka jo.”
For indeed the Son of Man goes on His way--His pre-destined way; yet alas for that man who is betraying Him!"
23 Pelepo ŵatandite kuusyana achinsyene pe, ana ŵaani ŵelewo uchatende chele chinducho!
Thereupon they began to discuss with one another which of them it could possibly be who was about to do this.
24 Gatyochele makani pasikati ja ŵakulijiganya gankati ŵaani jwali jwankulungwa kupunda ŵane.
There arose also a dispute among them which of them should be regarded as greatest.
25 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Mamwenye ŵa pachilambo akwalamula ŵandu ŵao kwa machili, nombe ŵakwete ulamusi pachanya pao akuliŵilanga, ‘achambusanga ŵa ŵandu’.
But He said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles are their masters, and those who exercise authority over them are called Benefactors.
26 Nambo inaŵe yeleyo kukwenu, jwali jwankulungwa aŵeje nti jwannandi mwa wose ni jwali chilongola aŵeje nti jwakutumichila.
With you it is not so; but let the greatest among you be as the younger, and the leader be like him who serves.
27 Pakuŵa, ŵaani jwali jwankulungwa, jwatemi kulya pane jwakutumichila? Isyene ni jwejula jwatemi paasi kulya! Nambo une ndili pasikati jenu mpela jwakutumichila.
For which is the greater--he who sits at table, or he who waits on him? Is it not he who sits at table? But my position among you is that of one who waits on others.
28 “Ŵanyamwe ni untemiji pamo ni une katema kose kakulinjikwa kwangune.
You however have remained with me amid my trials;
29 Mpela ila Atati ŵangu iŵatite pakuumba une ulamusi wa umwenye kulamula iyoyo peyo noneji ngumpa ulamusi wa kulamula.
and I covenant to give you, as my Father has covenanted to give me, a Kingdom--
30 Kuti ndye ni kung'wa pamo ni une mu Umwenye wangu. Chintame mu itengu ya Umwenye nchilamulaga ngosyo kumi na mbili sya Ŵaisilaeli.”
so that you shall eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom, and sit on thrones as judges over the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 Che Yesu ŵatite, “Che Simoni, che Simoni! Mpilikane! Shetani aŵendile luusa kwa Akunnungu ja kunlinga ŵanyamwe mpela mundu yakuti kupeta ngano alole iŵaga chimpunde kuŵa ŵakulupilichika.
"Simon, Simon, I tell you that Satan has obtained permission to have all of you to sift as wheat is sifted.
32 Nambo une nampopelele mmwe kuti chikulupi chenu chikapunguka. Nomwe pachimumujilile sooni, mwalimbisye mitima achinjenu.”
But I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail, and you, when at last you have come back to your true self, must strengthen your brethren."
33 Che Petulo ŵajanjile, “Ambuje, une ndili chile kutaŵikwa pamo nomwe ni kuwa pamo nomwejo.”
"Master," replied Peter, "with you I am ready to go both to prison and to death."
34 Nambo Che Yesu ŵanjanjile, “Ngunsalila mwe che Petulo, lelo jino jikanaŵe kutongola tambala chimungane katatu kuti ngankuumanyilila une.”
"I tell you, Peter," said Jesus, "that the cock will not crow to-day till you have three times denied that you know me."
35 Nipele Che Yesu ŵausisye ŵakulijiganya ŵao, “Panantumile pangali chilolo ni nsaku ni ilatu ine pala ana mwasoŵikwe ni chichi?” Ni ŵanjanjile, “Ngapagwa.”
Then He asked them, "When I sent you out without purse or bag or shoes, was there anything you needed?" "No, nothing," they replied.
36 Nombe Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Nambo sambano, jwakwete chilolo ajigale ni nsaku iyoyo peyo. Ni jwanganakola lipanga, asumisye mwinjilo wao akasume limo.
"But now," said He, "let the one who has a purse take it, and he who has a bag must do the same. And let him who has no sword sell his outer garment and buy one.
37 Ilembechekwe Mmalembo ga Akunnungu, ‘Ŵaŵalanjikwe ali jumo jwao pasikati ŵandu ŵa sambi.’ Ngunsalila yeleyi Malembelo gakusachilwa gaŵe isyene kwa une, pakuŵa uumi wangu ukuichila kumbesi.”
For I tell you that those words of Scripture must yet find their fulfilment in me: 'And He was reckoned among the lawless'; for indeed that saying about me has its accomplishment."
38 Ŵakulijiganya ŵatite, “Ambuje, nnole, apano tukwete mapanga gaŵilipe.” Nombewo ŵajanjile, “Ayaga!”
"Master, here are two swords," they exclaimed. "That is enough," He replied.
39 Che Yesu ŵatyosile ni kwaula pa chitumbi cha Miseituni mpela iŵatite pakusyoŵelela ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵakuiye.
On going out, He proceeded as usual to the Mount of Olives, and His disciples followed Him.
40 Paŵaiche pelepo, ŵaasalile ŵanyawo, “Mpopele kuti nkajinjila nkulinjikwa.”
But when He arrived at the place, He said to them, "Pray that you may not come into temptation."
41 Nipele, ŵalesile ŵanyawo ni ŵajawile kwati mundu nkukombola kuponya liganga ni ŵatindiŵele ni kupopela.
But He Himself withdrew from them about a stone's throw, and knelt down and prayed repeatedly, saying,
42 Ni ŵatiji, “Atati, mwasakaga mundyochesye achi chikombe cha malagasyo, nambo gankugasaka mmwe gapanganyikwe ni ngaŵa kwa kusaka kwangu.”
"Father, if it be Thy will, take this cup away from me; yet not my will but Thine be done!"
43 Pele katumetume jwa kwinani jwakopochele ni kwataga machili.
And there appeared to Him an angel from Heaven, strengthening Him;
44 Che Yesu ŵaliji mchipwetesi chachikulungwa ni ŵapundile kupopela kwannope. Chitukuta chatyosile ni chaliji mpela mandondwa ga miasi gagaliji nkwilima mpaka paasi.
while He--an agony of distress having come upon Him--prayed all the more with intense earnestness, and His sweat became like clots of blood dropping on the ground.
45 Paŵamasile kupopela, ŵajimwiche ni kwajaulila ŵakulijiganya ŵao ni ŵasimene nnugono ligongo ŵaliji nkusupuka.
When He rose from his prayer and came to His disciples, He found them sleeping for sorrow.
46 Ŵaasalile, “Ana ligongo chi nkugona? Njimuche ni kupopela kuti nkajinjila nkulinjikwa.”
"Why are you sleeping?" He said; "stand up; and pray that you may not come into temptation."
47 Che Yesu paŵaliji nkuŵecheta, mpingo wa ŵandu waiche uchilongolelwaga ni che Yuda juŵaliji jumo jwa achinduna kumi na mbili. Che Yuda ŵajawile ni kwakomasya Che Yesu kwa kwanonyela.
While He was still speaking there came a crowd with Judas, already mentioned as one of the Twelve, at their head. He went up to Jesus to kiss Him.
48 Nambo Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Che Yuda! Ana nkungalauka Mwana jwa Mundu kwa chikomasyo cha ngomo mmajeje?”
"Judas," said Jesus, "are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?"
49 Ŵele ŵakulijiganya ŵa Che Yesu paŵaimanyi ichityochele ni ŵatite, “Ambuje, twakunule ni mapanga?”
Those who were about Him, seeing what was likely to happen, asked Him, "Master, shall we strike with the sword?"
50 Ni jumo jwao ŵankunwile kapolo jwa jwankulungwa jwambopesi ni kwakapa lipikanilo lya kundyo.
And one of them struck a blow at the High Priest's servant and cut off his right ear.
51 Pelepo Che Yesu ŵaŵechete, “Nneche! Ikwanile.” Ni ŵalikwaiye lipikanilo lya jwele mundu jo ni kunnamya.
"Permit me thus far," said Jesus. And He touched the ear and healed it.
52 Nipele Che Yesu ŵaasalile achakulu ŵambopesi ni achakulungwa ŵa ŵakulindilila nyuumba ja Akunnungu ni achachekulu uŵaikangene kukwakamula, “Ana nnyiche ni mapanga ni imbonga kukungamula mpela ndili jwachiswamba?
Then Jesus said to the High Priests and Commanders of the Temple and Elders, who had come to arrest Him, "Have you come out as if to fight with a robber, with swords and cudgels?
53 Panaliji pamo ni ŵanyamwe moŵa gose pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu nganimungamula. Nambo aka ni katema kenu, katema ka jwaulamusi wa chipi.”
While day after day I was with you in the Temple, you did not lay hands upon me; but to you belongs this hour--and the power of darkness."
54 Nipele ŵankamwile ŵanjigele ni kwajausya ku nyuumba ja Jwankulu Jwambopesi. Che Petulo ŵankuiye chakunyuma kwakutalichila.
And they arrested Him and led Him away, and brought Him to the High Priest's house, while Peter followed a good way behind.
55 Ŵakolesisye mooto pasikati lwani, ŵatemi pamo nombe che Petulo ŵaiche ni kutama pamo nawo.
And when they had lighted a fire in the middle of the court and had seated themselves in a group round it, Peter was sitting among them,
56 Kapolo jumo jwankongwe, paŵammweni che Petulo ali atemi chiŵandi ni mooto wo ŵaalolechesye kwannope ni kuti, “Ni mundu ju nombe ŵaliji pamo ni Che Yesu.”
when a maidservant saw him sitting by the fire, and, looking fixedly at him, she said, "This man also was with him."
57 Nambo che Petulo ŵakanile achitiji, “Mmwe jwankongwe, ngangummanyilila jwelejo!”
But he denied it, and declared, "Woman, I do not know him."
58 Kanyuma kanandi, mundu jwine ŵammweni che Petulo ni ŵatite, “Ni mmwe ŵakwe nndi jumo jwao.” Nambo che Petulo ŵanjanjile “Alakwe ngaŵa une!”
Shortly afterwards a man saw him and said, "You, too, are one of them." "No, man, I am not," said Peter.
59 Mpela lisaa limo mmbujo, mundu jwine ŵaŵechete achitiji, “Isyene nguti, aju mundu ju nombe ŵaliji pamo nawo pakuŵa jwelejo nombe ali Mgalilaya.”
After an interval of about an hour some one else stoutly maintained: "Certainly this fellow also was with him, for in fact he is a Galilaean."
60 Nambo che Petulo ŵatite, “Alakwe, nganguchimanyilila chinkuŵecheta cho!” Papopo akanaŵe kumalisya kuŵecheta, tambala jatongwele.
"Man, I don't know what you mean," replied Peter. No sooner had he spoken than a cock crowed.
61 Ambuje ŵagalawiche ni kwalolechesya che Petulo, nombe che Petulo ŵagakumbuchile maloŵe ga Ambuje gaŵansalile, “Chilo cha lelo jino jikanaŵe kutongola tambala, chimungane katatu.”
The Master turned and looked on Peter; and Peter recollected the Master's words, how He had said to him, "This very day, before the cock crows, you will disown me three times."
62 Pelepo ŵakopweche paasa ni ŵalisile kwa nnope.
And he went out and wept aloud bitterly.
63 Ŵandu uŵankamwile Che Yesu ŵala, ŵatandite kwatendela chanache ni kwagomba.
Meanwhile the men who held Jesus in custody repeatedly beat Him in cruel sport,
64 Ŵantaŵile chiguo ku meeso ni ŵammusisye, “Nsagamukule, Ana ŵaani ŵangombile mmwe?”
or blindfolded Him, and then challenged Him. "Prove to us," they said, "that you are a prophet, by telling us who it was that struck you."
65 Ŵammechetele maloŵe gamajinji ga kwatukana.
And they said many other insulting things to Him.
66 Pakwachele, nkungulu wa achachekulu ni achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ŵasimene pamo, ni ŵannyichenawo Che Yesu pankungulu wao wekulungwa wa Chiyahudi.
As soon as it was day, the whole body of the Elders, both High Priests and Scribes, assembled. Then He was brought into their Sanhedrin, and they asked Him,
67 Ni ŵausisye “Ntusalile! Ana mmwejo ni Kilisito Nkulupusyo?” Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Atamuno nansalilaga, ngamungulupilila ng'oo,
"Are you the Christ? Tell us." "If I tell you," He replied, "you will certainly not believe;
68 sooni, natamuno nammusyaga liusyo, ngamunyanga.
and if I ask you questions, you will certainly not answer.
69 Nambo chitandile sambano, Mwana jwa Mundu chatame kundyo kwa Akunnungu ŵaali ni Machili.”
But from this time forward the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of God's omnipotence."
70 Pelepo wose ŵammusisye, “Ni kuti mmwejo ni Mwana jwa Akunnungu?” Ŵajanjile, “Ŵanyamwe nkutinji ndili une.”
Thereupon they cried out with one voice, "You, then, are the Son of God?" "It is as you say," He answered; "I am He."
71 Nombewo ŵatite, “Ana umboni chi sooni utukusaka? Pakuŵa tupilikene twachinsyene achiŵechetaga pakang'wa jakwe asyene!”
"What need have we of further evidence?" they said; "for we ourselves have heard it from his own lips."
