< Maliko 15 >

1 Kundaŵi pe, achakulu ŵambopesi ni achachekulu ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo, pamo ni Nkungulu wose, ŵatemi, ŵajilene kunjausya Che Yesu ku che Pilato. Nipele ŵantaŵile, ni kunjausya ku che Pilato.
Early in the morning, the chief priests met together with the elders and scribes and the entire Jewish council. Then they bound Jesus and led him away. They handed him over to Pilate.
2 Che Pilato ŵammusisye Che Yesu, “Ana mmweji ndi mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi?” Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Elo, mpela mmwejo intite pakuŵecheta.”
Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered him, “You say so.”
3 Achakulu ŵambopesi ŵaŵechetele Che Yesu maloŵe gamajinji.
The chief priests were presenting many charges against Jesus.
4 Che Pilato ŵammusisye sooni Che Yesu, “Ana ngakwanga chachili chose? Mpilikane maloŵe gose gakummechetela ga.”
Pilate again asked him, “Do you give no answer? See how many charges they are bringing against you!”
5 Nambo Che Yesu nganajanga liloŵe, mpaka che Pilato ŵasimosile.
But Jesus no longer answered Pilate, and that amazed him.
6 Pa katema ka chindimba cha Pasaka, che Pilato ŵasyoŵelele kwagopolela jwataŵikwe juŵansachile ŵandu.
Now at the time of the feast, Pilate usually released to them one prisoner, a prisoner they requested.
7 Kwaliji ni jwataŵikwe jumo, liina lyakwe che Balaba, juŵaliji ataŵikwe pamo ni ŵandu ŵane ŵaŵatandisye utindiganyo ni kwaulaga ŵandu ŵane.
There with the rebels in prison, among the murderers held for their part in the rebellion, was a man named Barabbas.
8 Mpingo wa ŵandu waichilile che Pilato, ŵatandite kwaŵenda ŵapanganyichisye mpela iŵatendaga.
The crowd came to Pilate and began to ask him to do for them as he had done in the past.
9 Che Pilato ŵausisye, “Ana nkusaka nangopolele Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi?”
Pilate answered them and said, “Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”
10 Che Pilato ŵatite yeleyo pakuŵa ŵaimanyilile kuti, achakulu ŵambopesi ŵannyichisye Che Yesu kukwao ligongo lya kwakolela wiu.
For he knew that it was because of envy that the chief priests had handed Jesus over to him.
11 Nambo achakulu ŵambopesi ŵala, ŵachisisye ŵandu ŵaŵende che Pilato ŵagopolele che Balaba pamalo pa Che Yesu.
But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to cry out that Barabbas should be released instead.
12 Che Pilato ŵausisye ŵandu sooni, “Sambano, nkusaka naapanganyichisye ichichi aju mundu junkuti Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi?”
Pilate answered them again and said, “What then should I do with the King of the Jews?”
13 Ŵanyanyisye sooni achitiji, “Mwaŵambe pa nsalaba!”
They shouted again, “Crucify him!”
14 Nambo che Pilato ŵausisye, “Atesile chakusakala chanti uli?” Nambo ŵanyawo ŵapundile kunyanyisya achitiji, “Mwaŵambe pa nsalaba!”
Pilate said to them, “What wrong has he done?” But they shouted more and more, “Crucify him.”
15 Che Pilato ŵasachile kwanonyelesya ŵandu, ŵagopolele che Balaba. Nipele ŵalamwile Che Yesu aputikwe mbokola ni kwapa ŵaŵambe pa nsalaba.
Pilate wanted to satisfy the crowd, so he released Barabbas to them. He scourged Jesus and then handed him over to be crucified.
16 Ŵangondo ŵanjawisye Che Yesu pa nsana wa likome li che Pilato, jwankulu jwa chilambo. Ŵausimanisye mpingo wose wa ŵangondo.
The soldiers led him inside the courtyard (which is the government headquarters), and they called together the whole cohort of soldiers.
17 Ŵambwasisye mwinjilo wa sambalau nti mwenye, ŵakolosisye chindu mpela singwa ja miiŵa, ŵambwasisye mu ntwe.
They put a purple robe on Jesus, and they twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on him.
18 Nipele ŵatandite kunkomasya achitiji, “Kutusimana, Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi!”
They began to salute him and say, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
19 Ŵamputile pa ntwe ni lubokola lwa nnasi, ŵansunile mata, ŵantindiŵalile ni kwakotamila.
They struck his head with a reed staff and they spat on him. They bent their knees before him to pretend to worship him.
20 Paŵamasile kwachembulusya, ŵammusile mwinjilo wa sambalau ni kwawasya iwalo yao. Nipele ŵantyosisye paasa ni kwaŵamba pa nsalaba.
When they had mocked him, they took off of him the purple robe and put his own garments on him, and then led him out to crucify him.
21 Paŵaliji mwitala, ŵasimene ni mundu liina lyao che Simoni, jwa ku Kulene jwaŵaliji atati ŵa che Alekisanda ni che Lufo. Jweleju ŵatyochelaga kunsinda kwinjila mmusi. Ŵangondo ŵankanganichisye atwichile nsalaba uŵajigele Che Yesu ula.
A certain man, Simon of Cyrene, was coming in from the country (he was the father of Alexander and Rufus), and they forced him to carry his cross.
22 Nipele ŵanjigele Che Yesu mpaka peuto papaŵilanjikwe Goligota, malumbo gakwe, “Peuto papakuloleka nti, Chikalakasa cha Ntwe.”
The soldiers brought Jesus to the place called Golgotha (which interpreted means, “Place of a Skull”).
23 Pelepo, ŵampele divai jewanganye ni ntela waukuŵilanjikwa manemane, nambo Che Yesu ŵakanile kung'wa.
They offered him wine mixed with myrrh, but he did not drink it.
24 Ŵammambile pa nsalaba ni ŵagaŵene iwalo yakwe kwa kuitendela gudugudu, pakuti alole ŵaani chapate chiwalo chi.
They crucified him and divided up his garments by casting lots to determine what piece each soldier would take.
25 Jaliji saa tatu kundaŵi paŵammambile pa nsalaba.
It was the third hour when they crucified him.
26 Ni pachanya nsalaba, ŵaŵisile chindu chachilembekwe magambo ga, “MWENYE JWA ŴAYAHUDI.”
On a sign they wrote the charge against him, “The king of the Jews.”
27 Papopopepo ŵaŵambikwe pa misalaba ŵachiswamba ŵaŵili, jwine kundyo ku Che Yesu ni jwine kunchiji.
With him they crucified two robbers, one on the right of him and one on his left.
28 Yeleyi yamalichisye Malembelo ga Akunnungu gagakuti, “Jwaŵichikwe pamo ni ŵandu ŵangalumbana.”
29 Ŵandu ŵaŵapitaga pelepo ŵapukunyaga mitwe jao ni kwatukana Che Yesu, alinkuti, “Ama! Mmwe ngati mwatiji chinchigumula Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, ni kujitaŵa kwa moŵa gatatu!
Those who passed by insulted him, shaking their heads and saying, “Aha! You who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days,
30 Sambano, ntuluche pa nsalaba, ndikulupusye mwasyene!”
save yourself and come down from the cross!”
31 Iyoyo peyo achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo wala ŵanchembulwisye achisalilanaga, “Ŵakulupwisye ŵandu ŵane, nambo ngakukombola kulikulupusya nsyene!
In the same way the chief priests were mocking him with each other, along with the scribes, and said, “He saved others, but he cannot save himself.
32 Nneche twalole Kilisito, Mwenye jwa Isilaeli! Atuluche etu pa nsalaba po kuti tulole ni kwakulupilila.” Iyoyo peyo ŵandu uŵaŵambikwe pa misalaba chiŵandi ni Che Yesu, ni ŵanyawo nombe ŵaliji nkutukana.
Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe,” and those who were crucified with him also taunted him.
33 Palyaiche lyuŵa pantwe, chilambo chose chaunichikwe ni chipi mpaka saa tisa ja muusi.
At the sixth hour, darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour.
34 Saa tisa ja muusi Che Yesu ŵanyanyisye achitiji, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabakitani?” Malumbo gakwe, “Akunnungu ŵangu, Akunnungu ŵangu, kwachichi munesile?”
At the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is interpreted, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
35 Aŵala ŵandu ŵane ŵaŵajimi pepala ŵala, paŵapilikene maloŵe go ŵatite, “Mpilikanile! Akwaŵilanga che Elia!”
Some of those standing by heard his words and said, “Look, he is calling for Elijah.”
36 Jumo jwao ŵautwiche kukunyoya chindu mpela lidodoki mu divai jakuŵipa, ŵakoleche pa nnasi, ŵambichile Che Yesu pakang'wa, achitiji, “Nneche tulole iŵaga che Elia chaiche kukuntulusya pa nsalaba!”
Someone ran, put sour wine on a sponge, put it on a reed staff, and gave it to him to drink. The man said, “Let us see if Elijah comes to take him down.”
37 Nipele Che Yesu ŵanyanyisye ni ŵajasiche.
Then Jesus cried out with a loud voice and died.
38 Katema kakoko, nguo ja lusasa ja mu Nyuumba ja Akunnungu japapwiche pambindikati, kutyochela penani mpaka paasi.
The curtain of the temple was split in two from the top to the bottom.
39 Jwankulu jwa ŵangondo juŵajimi mmbujo mwa nsalaba, paŵaweni Che Yesu ajasiche kwanti yeleyo, ŵatite, “Isyene mundu ju ŵaliji Mwana jwa Akunnungu!”
When the centurion who stood and faced Jesus saw that he had died in this way, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God.”
40 Achakongwe ŵampepe ŵaliji nkulolechesya kwakutalichila. Mwa ŵanyawo, ŵapali che Maliamu jwa musi wa ku Magidala ni che Salome ni che Maliamu achikulu ŵao che Yakobo jwannandi ni che Yusufu.
There were also women who looked on from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary (the mother of James the younger and of Joses), and Salome.
41 Achakongwe ŵa ni aŵala ŵaŵaliji nkwakuya Che Yesu paŵaliji ku Galilaya ni kwatumichila. Iyoyo peyo ŵapali achakongwe ŵane pepala, ŵaŵaiche ku Yelusalemu pamo nawo.
When he was in Galilee they followed him and served him. Many other women also came up with him to Jerusalem.
42 Lyaiche ligulo lya lyuŵa lya kuliŵika chile, likanaŵe Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.
When evening had come, because it was the Day of Preparation, that is, the day before the Sabbath,
43 Che Yusufu jwa musi wa ku Alimataya, juŵaliji jumo jwa achakulu ŵa Nkungulu ni jwakuchimbichikwa nnope ŵaiche. Jwelejo ŵaliji nkulolela kwika kwa Umwenye wa Akunnungu. Nipele che Yusufu ŵanjaulile che Pilato pangajogopa ni kwaŵenda ŵaape chiilu chi Che Yesu.
Joseph of Arimathea came there. He was a respected member of the council, who was waiting for the kingdom of God. He boldly went in to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.
44 Che Pilato ŵasimosile kupilikana kuti Che Yesu ajasiche. Nipele, ŵammilasile jwankulu jwa ŵangondo, ŵambusisye iŵaga Che Yesu ŵajasiche.
Pilate was amazed that Jesus was already dead; he called the centurion and asked him if Jesus was dead.
45 Nipele, che Pilato paŵaimanyi kutyochela kwa jwankulu jwa ŵangondo jula, ŵannechele che Yusufu ajigale chiilu chi Che Yesu.
When Pilate learned from the centurion that Jesus was dead, he gave the body to Joseph.
46 Che Yusufu ŵasumile saanda, ni ŵachitulwisye paasi chiilu chi Che Yesu ni kuchiŵilijila saanda jila. Ŵachiŵisile mwilembe lilyasepekwe pa lwala. Nipele ŵalipitikulile liganga lyalikulungwa pannango.
Joseph had bought a linen cloth. He took him down from the cross, wrapped him in the linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that had been cut out of a rock. Then he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb.
47 Che Maliamu jwa musi wa ku Magidala pamo ni che Maliamu achikulugwe che Yusufu ŵapaweni pelepo paŵachiŵisile chiilu chi Che Yesu.
Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw the place where Jesus was buried.
