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 began to accuse him, saying, We have found this fellow perverting the nation, and forbidding to pay tribute to Caesar; pretending that he himself is the King Messiah.
3 Che Pilato ŵammusisye Che Yesu, “Ana mmweji ni mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi?” Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Mmwejo mwasyene ni ummechete.”
Then Pilate interrogated him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said to him, Thou sayest so.
4 Nipele, che Pilato ŵaasalile achakulu ŵambopesi ni mpingo wa ŵandu, “Nganguchiwona chachili chose chakuti nannamule mundu ju.”
Then said Pilate unto the chief priests and the multitudes, I find nothing culpable 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 urgent, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching through all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place.
6 Che Pilato paŵapilikene yeleyo, ŵausisye, “Ana mundu ju ali jwa ku Galilaya?”
When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilean?
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 knew that he came out of Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was 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.
Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was vastly delighted: for he had been long desirous to see him, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to see some miracle wrought by him.
9 Nipele che Helode ŵammusisye Che Yesu mausyo gamajinji nambo Che Yesu nganajanga lili lyose.
And he put a variety of questions to him; but he made him no reply.
10 Achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo uŵaliji pelepo ŵaŵechetele Che Yesu kwa machili.
And the chief priests and the scribes stood up vehemently accusing him.
11 Nipele, che Helode ni ŵangondo ŵakwe, ŵanyelwisye ni kwatukana Che Yesu ni kwawasya iwalo yakusalala ni ŵammuchisye ku che Pilato.
Then Herod with his guards treated him with contempt, and in derision clothed him in a splendid robe, 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 Pilate and Herod the same day became friends together: for they had previously been at enmity with each other.
13 Nipele, che Pilato ŵasimanisye achakulu ŵambopesi ni ilongola ni ŵandu,
Then Pilate, convoking the chief priests and the rulers 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 unto them, Ye have brought this man to me, as one who perverteth the people: and lo! on examining him before you, I have found nothing culpable in this man, respecting the charges ye bring against 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.
nor Herod neither: for I referred you to him; and, lo, nothing is done to this man, as if he deserved death.
16 Nipele, chilamule kuti aputikwe mbokola nombe chinalechelele.”
I will therefore, after scourging, discharge him.
17 Pakuŵa ŵasachilwe kwaugulila jwataŵikwe jumo katema ka Pasaka.
(Now he held it necessary to release one to them at the feast.)
18 Nambo wose ŵatandite kunyanyisya kwanakamo achitiji, “Mummulaje mundu ju, ntugopolele che Balaba!”
Then the whole multitude set up a cry, saying, Away with this fellow, 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 raised in the city, and for murder, had been cast into prison.)
20 Che Pilato ŵasachile kwalechelela Che Yesu, ŵaŵechete nawo kaaŵili kwakunyanyisya.
Again therefore Pilate called out to them, desirous to see Jesus at liberty.
21 Nambo ŵanyawo ŵanyanyisye sooni, “Mwaŵambe pa nsalaba, Mwaŵambe pa nsalaba!”
But they clamoured the more, saying, Crucify, 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.”
Then the third time he said to them, What evil hath this man done? I have found nothing deserving death in him: I will therefore, after scourging, discharge him.
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 the most clamorous vociferations, soliciting that he might be crucified. And their clamours, and those of the chief priests, bore him down.
24 Che Pilato ŵalamwile kuti chasachilenje chipanganikwe.
Then Pilate decreed that their petition should be granted.
25 Ŵangopwele jwelejo juŵataŵikwe kwa ligongo lya kutindiganya ni kuulaga ni kwatyochesya Che Yesu kwa ŵangondo kuti ŵatende mpela iŵasakaga.
Then released he to them him who for sedition and murder had been cast into prison; but he gave up Jesus 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 out, laying hold on one Simon, a Cyrenian, who was coming from the country, they laid on him the cross, to carry after Jesus.
27 Mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu wankuiye, mwa ŵanyawo ŵapali achakongwe uŵaliji nkulila nnope ni kulila kwa malumbo.
And a great multitude of the people and of women followed him, who also beat their breasts and lamented him bitterly.
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 for me, but for yourselves, and for your children.
29 Pakuŵa moŵa chigaiche pachachiti, ‘Ŵana upile ŵangakuŵeleka ni ŵanganaŵeleka ni konjesya!’
For, behold, the days are coming, in which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs which have not borne, and the breasts which never suckled.
30 Pelepo ni pachatande kuisalila ikwesya kuti ‘Ntugwilile!’ Ni matumbi, ‘Ntuunichile!’
Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on 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 they do all these things with the green wood, what will be done with the dry?
32 Nombe ŵapali ŵandu ŵane ŵaŵili, uŵatendaga yangalumbana, ŵajigalikwe kukuulajikwa pamo ni Che Yesu.
Now there were two other persons, malefactors, led out with him to be executed.
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 came to a place called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, the 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. Then dividing his garments, they cast the lot.
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 looking on. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if this fellow is the Messiah, the elect of God.
36 Ŵangondo nombewo ŵanjalwisye Che Yesu ni kwapelechela divai ja kuipa,
And the soldiers also insulted him, coming and offering him vinegar,
37 ni ŵanyawo ŵansalile, “Iŵaga isyene mmwejo ni Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi, nlikulupusye mwasyene.”
and saying, if thou art the King of the Jews, save thyself.
38 Ni pachanya nsalaba ŵaŵisile chindu chachilembekwe yele, “Aŵaŵa ALI MWENYE JWA ŴAYAHUDI.”
And there was an inscription written over him in Greek, Roman, and Hebrew characters, 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.”
Then one of the suspended malefactors blasphemed him, saying, If thou art the Messiah, 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 addressing him, rebuked him, saying, Hast thou no fear of God, when thou art 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 deserved punishment for the crimes we have committed: but this man hath done nothing amiss.
42 Nipele ŵaŵechete, “Choonde Che Yesu! Mungumbuchile pachinchiinjila mu umwenye wenu.”
And he said to Jesus, Remember me, Lord, when thou comest in thy kingdom.
43 Che Yesu ŵanjanjile jwelejo, “Isyene ngunsalila, lelo jino chimme pampepe none kumbepo.”
And Jesus said to him. Verily I say unto thee, To-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 about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over all the land 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 with a loud voice, said, Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit: and having said this, he expired.
47 Jwankulu jwaŵangondo paŵaiweni iyatendekweyo, ŵaakusisye Akunnungu achitiji, “Isyenepe, mundu ju jwaliji jwambone.”
And the centurion observing what had come to pass, glorified God, saying, Verily this man was a righteous person.
48 Mpingo wa ŵandu wasongangene ligongo lyakulola iyatendekwe, paŵaiweni yeleyo, ŵaujangene mmangwawo aninkuliputa pa ntima pao kwakulilasika.
And all the multitudes who had come together for this spectacle, when they saw the things which were done, beating their breasts, returned.
49 Achambusanga ŵao wose ni achakongwe uŵalongene nawo kutyochela ku Galilaya, ŵajimi kwakutalichila, aninkulola yaikutyochela.
And all his acquaintance stood afar off, and the women which followed him from Galilee, 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 lo! a man named Joseph, being a member of the council, a good man, and a just;
51 ni nganajitichisyana nawo iŵaisachile ni kuipanganya. Jweleju jwaliji mundu jwa nsinda umo wa Chiyahudi waukuŵilanjikwa Alimataya ni jwaliji nkulolela Umwenye wa Akunnungu.
(who had not given his assent to their determination and deed; ) being of Arimathea, a city of the Jews: who himself also expected the coming of the kingdom of God.
52 Nipele, jwele mundu ŵajawile ku che Pilato, ŵaŵendile apegwe chiilu chi Che Yesu.
He went in 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 it down from the cross, he wrapped it in linen cloth, and laid it in a sepulchre hewn out of a rock, where none had ever yet lain.
54 Lyele lyuŵa lyo lyaliji lyuŵa lyakuliŵika chile kwa ligongo lya Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.
And that was the preparation-day, and the sabbath’s twilight was approaching.
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.
Then the women also, his attendants, who had followed him out of Galilee, observed the sepulchre, and how his corpse was laid out.
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 made preparation of aromatics and unguents; and they rested the sabbath-day, according to the commandment.
