Luka 23
1 Nipele, ŵandu wose uŵachingangene pepala ŵajimi ni kwajausya Che Yesu mmbujo mwa che Pilato.
And having risen up all the multitude of them (they led *N(k)O*) 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.”
They began then to accuse Him saying; This [man] we found misleading the nation (of us *NO*) and forbidding tribute to Caesar to be given (and *no*) declaring Himself Christ a king to be.
3 Che Pilato ŵammusisye Che Yesu, “Ana mmweji ni mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi?” Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Mmwejo mwasyene ni ummechete.”
And Pilate (asked *N(k)O*) Him saying; You yourself are the King of the Jews? And answering him He was saying; You yourself say.
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 the crowds; No [thing] find I guilty in man this.
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 insisting saying that He stirs up the people teaching throughout all of Judea (and *no*) He has begun from Galilee until here.
6 Che Pilato paŵapilikene yeleyo, ŵausisye, “Ana mundu ju ali jwa ku Galilaya?”
Pilate now having heard (Galilee *KO*) asked whether the man a Galilean is,
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 having learned that from the jurisdiction of Herod He is, he sent up Him to (*o*) Herod being also he himself in 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 having seen Jesus [was] glad exceedingly; he was for of (long *N(k)O*) time wishing to see Him because of hearing (many things *K*) concerning Him and he was hoping some sign to see by Him done.
9 Nipele che Helode ŵammusisye Che Yesu mausyo gamajinji nambo Che Yesu nganajanga lili lyose.
He was questioning then Him in words many; He himself however no [thing] answered him.
10 Achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo uŵaliji pelepo ŵaŵechetele Che Yesu kwa machili.
Had been standing by now the chief priests and the scribes vehemently accusing Him.
11 Nipele, che Helode ni ŵangondo ŵakwe, ŵanyelwisye ni kwatukana Che Yesu ni kwawasya iwalo yakusalala ni ŵammuchisye ku che Pilato.
Having set at naught then Him (also *no*) Herod with the troops of him and having mocked [and] having put on (Him *ko*) apparel splendid, sent back Him to Pilate.
12 Lye lyuŵa lyo che Helode ni che Pilato ŵajilene ni kuŵa uganja pakuŵa chitandilile kalakala ŵatindene lyasi.
Became then friends both Herod and Pilate on that day with one another; they were formerly for at enmity they were between (them. *N(k)(o)*)
13 Nipele, che Pilato ŵasimanisye achakulu ŵambopesi ni ilongola ni ŵandu,
Pilate then having called together 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 to them; You brought to me man this as misleading the people; and behold I myself before you having examined [Him] no [thing] found in man this guilty of that accusation you are bringing 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.
But not even [did] Herod; (he sent back *N(K)O*) for Him to (us *N(K)O*) And behold no [thing] worthy of death is done by Him.
16 Nipele, chilamule kuti aputikwe mbokola nombe chinalechelele.”
Having chastised therefore Him I will release [Him].
17 Pakuŵa ŵasachilwe kwaugulila jwataŵikwe jumo katema ka Pasaka.
(necessity *KO*) (now had to release to them according to feast one. *K*)
18 Nambo wose ŵatandite kunyanyisya kwanakamo achitiji, “Mummulaje mundu ju, ntugopolele che Balaba!”
(They cried out *N(k)O*) however all together saying; do remove this [man], do release now to 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 was on account of insurrection a certain having been made in the city and murder (being cast into *N(k)O*) (the *no*) (prison. *N(k)O*)
20 Che Pilato ŵasachile kwalechelela Che Yesu, ŵaŵechete nawo kaaŵili kwakunyanyisya.
Again (therefore *N(k)O*) Pilate called to them wishing to release Jesus.
21 Nambo ŵanyawo ŵanyanyisye sooni, “Mwaŵambe pa nsalaba, Mwaŵambe pa nsalaba!”
But they were crying out saying; (do crucify do crucify *N(k)O*) 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 a third [time] he said to them; What for evil did commit this [man]? No [thing] worthy of death found I in Him. Having chastised therefore Him I will release [Him].
23 Nambo ŵanyawo ŵapundile kunyanyisya kwa machili nnope kuti Che Yesu akusachilwa kuŵambikwa pa nsalaba. Kumbesi kwakwe, maloŵe gao gapikaniche.
But they were urgent with voices loud asking for Him to be crucified, And were prevailing the voices of them (and of the chief priests. *KO*)
24 Che Pilato ŵalamwile kuti chasachilenje chipanganikwe.
(*k*) (and *N(k)O*) Pilate sentenced to be done the demand of them.
25 Ŵangopwele jwelejo juŵataŵikwe kwa ligongo lya kutindiganya ni kuulaga ni kwatyochesya Che Yesu kwa ŵangondo kuti ŵatende mpela iŵasakaga.
He released then (to them *k*) the [one] on account of insurrection and murder cast into (*k*) prison whom they were asking for; and Jesus he delivered to the will of them.
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 away Him, having laid hold on (Simon a certain from Cyrene *N(k)O*) (who *k*) (is coming *N(k)O*) from [the] country they put upon him the cross to carry behind Jesus.
27 Mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu wankuiye, mwa ŵanyawo ŵapali achakongwe uŵaliji nkulila nnope ni kulila kwa malumbo.
Were following now Him a great multitude of the people and of women who (also *k*) were mourning and they were lamenting for Him.
28 Che Yesu ŵaagalauchile ŵanyawo ni kwasalila, “Mwanya achakongwe ŵa ku Yelusalemu! Ngasimulilila une nambo nlililile mwachinsyene ni ŵanache ŵenu.
Having turned then to them Jesus said; Daughters of Jerusalem, not do weep for Me myself, but for yourselves do weep and for the children of you.
29 Pakuŵa moŵa chigaiche pachachiti, ‘Ŵana upile ŵangakuŵeleka ni ŵanganaŵeleka ni konjesya!’
For behold are coming days in which they will say; Blessed [are] the barren and (the *no*) wombs that never did bear and breasts that never (they feed. *N(k)O*)
30 Pelepo ni pachatande kuisalila ikwesya kuti ‘Ntugwilile!’ Ni matumbi, ‘Ntuunichile!’
Then They will begin to say to the mountains; do fall upon us; and to the hills; do 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 tree these things they do, in the dry what may happen?
32 Nombe ŵapali ŵandu ŵane ŵaŵili, uŵatendaga yangalumbana, ŵajigalikwe kukuulajikwa pamo ni Che Yesu.
Were being led away now also other criminals two 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 *N(k)O*) to the place which is being called [The] Skull, there they crucified Him and the criminals, the one on [the] right, another and on [the] left.
34 Che Yesu ŵatite, “Atati, mwalechelesye pakuŵa ngakuimanyilila yakuitendayi.” Nipele, ŵagaŵene iwalo yao kwa kuitendela gudugudu.
And Jesus was saying; Father, do forgive them; not for they know what they do. Dividing then the garments of Him they cast (lots. *NK(o)*)
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 had stood the people beholding. Were deriding [Him] then also the rulers (with them *k*) saying; Others He saved, he should save Himself if this is the Christ (*ko*) of God (the *no*) Chosen [One].
36 Ŵangondo nombewo ŵanjalwisye Che Yesu ni kwapelechela divai ja kuipa,
(Mocked *N(k)O*) then Him also the soldiers coming near, (and *k*) sour wine offering to Him
37 ni ŵanyawo ŵansalile, “Iŵaga isyene mmwejo ni Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi, nlikulupusye mwasyene.”
and saying; If You yourself are the King of the Jews, do save Yourself!
38 Ni pachanya nsalaba ŵaŵisile chindu chachilembekwe yele, “Aŵaŵa ALI MWENYE JWA ŴAYAHUDI.”
There was now also an inscription (written *K(o)*) over Him (writings in Greek and in Latin and in Hebrew; is *K*) the King of the Jews This [is].
39 Jumo jwa aŵala uŵatendaga yangalumbana uŵaŵambikwe pepala ŵantukene Che Yesu achitiji, “Ana mmwejo ngati ni Kilisito Nkulupusyo? Nlikulupusye mwasyene noweji iyoyo peyo.”
One now of those having been hanged criminals he was denigrating Him saying: (Surely *N(K)O*) you yourself are the Christ? do save Yourself and us!
40 Nambo jwine jula ŵankalipile achitiji, “Ana mmweji ngankwajogopa Akunnungu namose kanandi? Namuno mmwejo nnamulikwe chisau ni ŵele.
Answering now the other (rebuking *N(k)O*) him (was speaking; *N(k)O*) Not even do fear you yourself God that under the same judgment you are?
41 Mmwe ni une tukuŵajilwa, pakuŵa aji ni mbote ja sambi syatutesile. Nambo aju mundu ju nganapanganya chachili chose changalumbana.”
and we ourselves indeed justly, Worthy for of what we did we are receiving; [this] man however no [thing] wrong did.
42 Nipele ŵaŵechete, “Choonde Che Yesu! Mungumbuchile pachinchiinjila mu umwenye wenu.”
And he was saying: (*k*) Jesus, do remember me (Lord *K*) when You may come (into *N(k)O*) (the kingdom *NK(o)*) of You!
43 Che Yesu ŵanjanjile jwelejo, “Isyene ngunsalila, lelo jino chimme pampepe none kumbepo.”
And He said to him (Jesus: *ko*) Amen to you I say: today with Me you will be in Paradise.
44 Kaliji mpela katema ka lyuŵa pantwe, sooni kwaliji chipi pachilambo chose mpaka saa tisa,
(And *no*) it was (now *k*) (already *no*) about [the] hour sixth, and darkness came over all the land until [the] hour ninth
45 ni lyuŵa lyalesile kuŵala ni nguo ja lusasa ja mu Nyuumba ja Akunnungu japapwiche pambindikati.
(and *ko*) (The sun darkened. *N(k)O*) (and *ko*) was torn (then *no*) the veil of the temple in [the] middle.
46 Che Yesu ŵanyanyisye achitiji, “Atati, ngujiŵika mbumu jangu mmakono mwenu.” Paŵamasile kuŵecheta gelego, ŵawile.
And having called out in a voice loud Jesus said; Father, into [the] hands of You (I myself commit *N(k)O*) the Spirit of Mine. (This now *N(k)O*) having said He breathed His last.
47 Jwankulu jwaŵangondo paŵaiweni iyatendekweyo, ŵaakusisye Akunnungu achitiji, “Isyenepe, mundu ju jwaliji jwambone.”
Having seen now the centurion that having taken place (he was glorifying *N(k)O*) God saying; Certainly man this righteous was.
48 Mpingo wa ŵandu wasongangene ligongo lyakulola iyatendekwe, paŵaiweni yeleyo, ŵaujangene mmangwawo aninkuliputa pa ntima pao kwakulilasika.
And all the having come together crowds to spectacle this, (having seen *N(k)O*) the [things] having taken place, beating (their own *k*) breasts were returning [home].
49 Achambusanga ŵao wose ni achakongwe uŵalongene nawo kutyochela ku Galilaya, ŵajimi kwakutalichila, aninkulola yaikutyochela.
Had stood now all those who knew (with Him *N(k)O*) (from *no*) afar off also women those (having followed *N(k)O*) 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 behold a man named Joseph a Council member being (also *n*) a man good and righteous;
51 ni nganajitichisyana nawo iŵaisachile ni kuipanganya. Jweleju jwaliji mundu jwa nsinda umo wa Chiyahudi waukuŵilanjikwa Alimataya ni jwaliji nkulolela Umwenye wa Akunnungu.
he not was having consented to the counsel and to the deed of them; from Arimathea a city of the Jews, who (and *k*) he was waiting for (and himself *k*) the kingdom of God,
52 Nipele, jwele mundu ŵajawile ku che Pilato, ŵaŵendile apegwe chiilu chi Che Yesu.
He having gone to Pilate asked [for] 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 having taken down (it *k*) he wrapped it in a linen cloth and placed (it *N(k)O*) in a tomb cut in a rock in which no were no [one] (not yet *N(k)O*) laid.
54 Lyele lyuŵa lyo lyaliji lyuŵa lyakuliŵika chile kwa ligongo lya Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.
And [the] Day it was (of Preparation, *NK(o)*) and Sabbath was just beginning.
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.
Having followed then (and *k*) (the *no*) women who were having come from Galilee with Him saw the tomb and how was laid the body of Him.
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.
Having returned then they prepared spices and anointing oils And on the indeed Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
