Luka 23
1 Nipele, ŵandu wose uŵachingangene pepala ŵajimi ni kwajausya Che Yesu mmbujo mwa che Pilato.
And the whole multitude of them rising up, led him to Pilate.
2 Ŵatandite kwaŵechetela, achitiji, “Twansimene mundu ju ali nkwalyungasya ŵandu ŵa chilambo chetu ali nkwakanya ŵandu kutyosya nsongo kwa Mwenye jwa ku Loma ni kulitenda kuti jwelejo ali Kilisito Nkulupusyo, Mwenye.”
And they began to accuse him, saying: We have found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he is Christ the king.
3 Che Pilato ŵammusisye Che Yesu, “Ana mmweji ni mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi?” Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Mmwejo mwasyene ni ummechete.”
And Pilate asked him, saying: Art thou the king of the Jews? But he answering, said: Thou sayest it.
4 Nipele, che Pilato ŵaasalile achakulu ŵambopesi ni mpingo wa ŵandu, “Nganguchiwona chachili chose chakuti nannamule mundu ju.”
And Pilate said to the chief priests and to the multitudes: I find no cause in this man.
5 Nambo ŵanyawo ŵachalile nnope achitiji, “Akwalyungasya ŵandu kwa majiganyo gao mu chilambo chose cha ku Yudea. Ŵatandite ku Galilaya ni sambano aiche apano.”
But they were more earnest, saying: He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee to this place.
6 Che Pilato paŵapilikene yeleyo, ŵausisye, “Ana mundu ju ali jwa ku Galilaya?”
But Pilate hearing Galilee, asked if the man were of Galilee?
7 Paŵaimanyilile kuti Che Yesu ŵaliji jwa chilambo chachili mu ulamusi u che Helode, ŵampeleche ku che Helode, juŵaliji kukoko ku Yelusalemu gele moŵa go.
And when he understood that he was of Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him away to Herod, who was also himself at Jerusalem, in those days.
8 Che Helode paŵammweni Che Yesu ŵasangalele nnope. Chitandile kalakala ŵalajile kwawona pakuŵa ŵapilikene ngani syao, nombewo ŵalolelaga kwawona Che Yesu ali nkupanganya imanyisyo.
And Herod, seeing Jesus, was very glad; for he was desirous of a long time to see him, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to see some sign wrought by him.
9 Nipele che Helode ŵammusisye Che Yesu mausyo gamajinji nambo Che Yesu nganajanga lili lyose.
And he questioned him in many words. But he answered him nothing.
10 Achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo uŵaliji pelepo ŵaŵechetele Che Yesu kwa machili.
And the chief priests and the scribes stood by, earnestly accusing him.
11 Nipele, che Helode ni ŵangondo ŵakwe, ŵanyelwisye ni kwatukana Che Yesu ni kwawasya iwalo yakusalala ni ŵammuchisye ku che Pilato.
And Herod with his army set him at nought, and mocked him, putting on him a white garment, and sent him back to Pilate.
12 Lye lyuŵa lyo che Helode ni che Pilato ŵajilene ni kuŵa uganja pakuŵa chitandilile kalakala ŵatindene lyasi.
And Herod and Pilate were made friends, that same day; for before they were enemies one to another.
13 Nipele, che Pilato ŵasimanisye achakulu ŵambopesi ni ilongola ni ŵandu,
And Pilate, calling together the chief priests, and the magistrates, and the people,
14 ni ŵaasalile, “Mumbelechele mundu ju nchitiji ŵaliji nkwalyungasya ŵandu. Sambano mpilikane! Uneji sosilesosile ngani syao mmbujo mwenu nambo nganinansimana ni ligambo lili lyose lyankati indu imwammechetele.
Said to them: You have presented unto me this man, as one that perverteth the people; and behold I, having examined him before you, find no cause in this man, in those things wherein you accuse him.
15 Ngaŵa uneji pe, atamuno che Helode ammuchisye kukwetu pakuŵa nganaliwona ligambo lili lyose. Usyene ukulosya kuti mundu ju nganatenda chachili chose changalumbana chakwaŵajila chiwa.
No, nor Herod neither. For I sent you to him, and behold, nothing worthy of death is done to him.
16 Nipele, chilamule kuti aputikwe mbokola nombe chinalechelele.”
I will chastise him therefore, and release him.
17 Pakuŵa ŵasachilwe kwaugulila jwataŵikwe jumo katema ka Pasaka.
Now of necessity he was to release unto them one upon the feast day.
18 Nambo wose ŵatandite kunyanyisya kwanakamo achitiji, “Mummulaje mundu ju, ntugopolele che Balaba!”
But the whole multitude together cried out, saying: Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas:
19 Che Balaba ŵataŵikwe mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa ligongo lya kukamulangana ni ŵandu ŵaŵatindigenye mu musi ni mu utinda wo ŵaulajikwe mundu jumo.
Who, for a certain sedition made in the city, and for a murder, was cast into prison.
20 Che Pilato ŵasachile kwalechelela Che Yesu, ŵaŵechete nawo kaaŵili kwakunyanyisya.
And Pilate again spoke to them, desiring to release Jesus.
21 Nambo ŵanyawo ŵanyanyisye sooni, “Mwaŵambe pa nsalaba, Mwaŵambe pa nsalaba!”
But they cried again, saying: Crucify him, crucify him.
22 Che Pilato ŵaasalile kaatatu, “Ana changalumbana chi chatesile mundu ju? Nganguliwona ligambo lililyose nkati mundu ju lyati ikwaŵajila chiwa. Nipele chilamule aputikwe mbokola ni kwalechelela.”
And he said to them the third time: Why, what evil hath this man done? I find no cause of death in him. I will chastise him therefore, and let him go.
23 Nambo ŵanyawo ŵapundile kunyanyisya kwa machili nnope kuti Che Yesu akusachilwa kuŵambikwa pa nsalaba. Kumbesi kwakwe, maloŵe gao gapikaniche.
But they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified; and their voices prevailed.
24 Che Pilato ŵalamwile kuti chasachilenje chipanganikwe.
And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.
25 Ŵangopwele jwelejo juŵataŵikwe kwa ligongo lya kutindiganya ni kuulaga ni kwatyochesya Che Yesu kwa ŵangondo kuti ŵatende mpela iŵasakaga.
And he released unto them him who for murder and sedition, had been cast into prison, whom they had desired; but Jesus he delivered up to their will.
26 Ŵangondo paŵalinji nkwajausya Che Yesu kukwaŵamba pa nsalaba ŵasimene ni mundu liina lyao che Simoni jwa ku Kulene, juŵatyochelaga mu nsinda kwinjila mu musi. Ŵankamwile ni kwatwika nsalaba ni kwakuya Che Yesu panyuma.
And as they led him away, they laid hold of one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country; and they laid the cross on him to carry after Jesus.
27 Mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu wankuiye, mwa ŵanyawo ŵapali achakongwe uŵaliji nkulila nnope ni kulila kwa malumbo.
And there followed him a great multitude of people, and of women, who bewailed and lamented him.
28 Che Yesu ŵaagalauchile ŵanyawo ni kwasalila, “Mwanya achakongwe ŵa ku Yelusalemu! Ngasimulilila une nambo nlililile mwachinsyene ni ŵanache ŵenu.
But Jesus turning to them, said: Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not over me; but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
29 Pakuŵa moŵa chigaiche pachachiti, ‘Ŵana upile ŵangakuŵeleka ni ŵanganaŵeleka ni konjesya!’
For behold, the days shall come, wherein they will say: Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that have not borne, and the paps that have not given suck.
30 Pelepo ni pachatande kuisalila ikwesya kuti ‘Ntugwilile!’ Ni matumbi, ‘Ntuunichile!’
Then shall they begin to say to the mountains: Fall upon us; and to the hills: Cover us.
31 Pakuŵa, iŵaga ŵandu akutenda yeleyi kwa une jundi mpela chitela chachiŵisi. Ana chatende chichi kukwenu ŵandi mpela chitela chejumu?”
For if in the green wood they do these things, what shall be done in the dry?
32 Nombe ŵapali ŵandu ŵane ŵaŵili, uŵatendaga yangalumbana, ŵajigalikwe kukuulajikwa pamo ni Che Yesu.
And there were also two other malefactors led with him to be put to death.
33 Paŵaiche kwiuto, liina lyakwe, “Chikalakasa cha Ntwe,” Nipele kweleko ŵaŵambile pa nsalaba Che Yesu pamo ni aŵala ŵaŵili uŵaitendekanyaga yangalumbana, jumo kundyo kwao ni jwine kunchiji.
And when they were come to the place which is called Calvary, they crucified him there; and the robbers, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.
34 Che Yesu ŵatite, “Atati, mwalechelesye pakuŵa ngakuimanyilila yakuitendayi.” Nipele, ŵagaŵene iwalo yao kwa kuitendela gudugudu.
And Jesus said: Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. But they, dividing his garments, cast lots.
35 Ŵandu ŵajimi achilolaga. Achakulu ŵa chiyahudi ŵanjalwisye Che Yesu achitiji, “Ŵakulupwisye ŵane, sambano alikulupusye nsyene iŵaga jwelejo ni Kilisito Nkulupusyo jwasagulikwe ni Akunnungu!”
And the people stood beholding, and the rulers with them derided him, saying: He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the elect of God.
36 Ŵangondo nombewo ŵanjalwisye Che Yesu ni kwapelechela divai ja kuipa,
And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar,
37 ni ŵanyawo ŵansalile, “Iŵaga isyene mmwejo ni Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi, nlikulupusye mwasyene.”
And saying: If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.
38 Ni pachanya nsalaba ŵaŵisile chindu chachilembekwe yele, “Aŵaŵa ALI MWENYE JWA ŴAYAHUDI.”
And there was also a superscription written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
39 Jumo jwa aŵala uŵatendaga yangalumbana uŵaŵambikwe pepala ŵantukene Che Yesu achitiji, “Ana mmwejo ngati ni Kilisito Nkulupusyo? Nlikulupusye mwasyene noweji iyoyo peyo.”
And one of those robbers who were hanged, blasphemed him, saying: If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.
40 Nambo jwine jula ŵankalipile achitiji, “Ana mmweji ngankwajogopa Akunnungu namose kanandi? Namuno mmwejo nnamulikwe chisau ni ŵele.
But the other answering, rebuked him, saying: Neither dost thou fear God, seeing thou art condemned under the same condemnation?
41 Mmwe ni une tukuŵajilwa, pakuŵa aji ni mbote ja sambi syatutesile. Nambo aju mundu ju nganapanganya chachili chose changalumbana.”
And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this man hath done no evil.
42 Nipele ŵaŵechete, “Choonde Che Yesu! Mungumbuchile pachinchiinjila mu umwenye wenu.”
And he said to Jesus: Lord, remember me when thou shalt come into thy kingdom.
43 Che Yesu ŵanjanjile jwelejo, “Isyene ngunsalila, lelo jino chimme pampepe none kumbepo.”
And Jesus said to him: Amen I say to thee, this day thou shalt be with me in paradise.
44 Kaliji mpela katema ka lyuŵa pantwe, sooni kwaliji chipi pachilambo chose mpaka saa tisa,
And it was almost the sixth hour; and there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.
45 ni lyuŵa lyalesile kuŵala ni nguo ja lusasa ja mu Nyuumba ja Akunnungu japapwiche pambindikati.
And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.
46 Che Yesu ŵanyanyisye achitiji, “Atati, ngujiŵika mbumu jangu mmakono mwenu.” Paŵamasile kuŵecheta gelego, ŵawile.
And Jesus crying out with a loud voice, said: Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit. And saying this, he gave up the ghost.
47 Jwankulu jwaŵangondo paŵaiweni iyatendekweyo, ŵaakusisye Akunnungu achitiji, “Isyenepe, mundu ju jwaliji jwambone.”
Now the centurion, seeing what was done, glorified God, saying: Indeed this was a just man.
48 Mpingo wa ŵandu wasongangene ligongo lyakulola iyatendekwe, paŵaiweni yeleyo, ŵaujangene mmangwawo aninkuliputa pa ntima pao kwakulilasika.
And all the multitude of them that were come together to that sight, and saw the things that were done, returned striking their breasts.
49 Achambusanga ŵao wose ni achakongwe uŵalongene nawo kutyochela ku Galilaya, ŵajimi kwakutalichila, aninkulola yaikutyochela.
And all his acquaintance, and the women that had followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.
50 Jwapali mundu liina lyao che Yusufu, jumo jwa ŵantenga ŵa nkungulu wekulungwa wa Chiyahudi. Mundu ju ŵaliji jwambone ni jwakupanganya yaikwanonyelesya Akunnungu,
And behold there was a man named Joseph, who was a counsellor, a good and just man,
51 ni nganajitichisyana nawo iŵaisachile ni kuipanganya. Jweleju jwaliji mundu jwa nsinda umo wa Chiyahudi waukuŵilanjikwa Alimataya ni jwaliji nkulolela Umwenye wa Akunnungu.
(The same had not consented to their counsel and doings; ) of Arimathea, a city of Judea; who also himself looked for the kingdom of God.
52 Nipele, jwele mundu ŵajawile ku che Pilato, ŵaŵendile apegwe chiilu chi Che Yesu.
This man went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.
53 Nipele, che Yusufu ŵachitulwisye chiilu pa nsalaba ni kuchiŵilijila ni sanda ni ŵachiŵisile mwilembe lilyasepekwe palwala, lilyaliji likanaŵe kuŵichikwa mundu.
And taking him down, he wrapped him in fine linen, and laid him in a sepulchre that was hewed in stone, wherein never yet any man had been laid.
54 Lyele lyuŵa lyo lyaliji lyuŵa lyakuliŵika chile kwa ligongo lya Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.
And it was the day of the Parasceve, and the sabbath drew on.
55 Ni achakongwe uŵalongene nawo Che Yesu kutyochela ku Galilaya ŵala, ŵakuiye che Yusufu ni ŵaliweni lilembe lyo ni yachitite pakuŵichikwa chiilu chi Che Yesu.
And the women that were come with him from Galilee, following after, saw the sepulchre, and how his body was laid.
56 Nipele, ŵausile kumusi ni kulinganya mauta ga malahamu ni mauta gakununjila gakugapakasya chiilu chi Che Yesu. Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila ŵapumulile mpela igakuti kulamula Malajisyo.
And returning, they prepared spices and ointments; and on the sabbath day they rested, according to the commandment.
