1 Pakwachele, achakulu ŵambopesi ni achakulu ŵa ŵandu ŵajilene ichajile pakwaulaga Che Yesu.
Ekuseni ngovivi bonke abaphristi abakhulu labadala babantu benza isinqumo sokumbulala uJesu.
2 Ŵataŵile magwedegwede, ŵanjigele, ŵampeleche ku che Pilato, jwankulu jwa Chiloma.
Bambopha, bamqhuba, bamnikela kuPhilathu umbusi.
3 Pelepo, che Yuda juŵangalawiche, paŵaiweni kuti Che Yesu amasile kulamulikwa, ŵalilasiche muntima, ŵausisye kwa achakulu ŵambopesi ni achakulu ŵa ŵandu ipande selasini ya feza.
Kwathi uJudasi, owayemnikele, esebona ukuthi uJesu wayesegwetshiwe, wadabuka ngokuzisola, wabuyisela inhlamvu zesiliva ezingamatshumi amathathu kubaphristi abakhulu labadala.
4 Ŵaasalile, “Leŵile kwa kuntyosya mundu jwangali ni sambi aulajikwe.” Nambo ŵele ŵanyawo ŵatite, “Yeleyo ili yetuwe? Chimmanyilile mwasyene.”
Wathi, “Ngenze isono, ngoba nginikele igazi elingelacala.” Baphendula bathi, “silani lalokho thina? Lokho kungumlandu wakho.”
5 Nombejo ŵaponyele feza sila pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, ŵakopweche paasa, ŵajawile kukulitaŵilila.
Ngakho uJudasi wayiphosela ethempelini leyomali wahamba. Wasuka lapho wayazibophela.
6 Achakulu ŵambopesi ŵasijigele feza sila, nikuti, “Ngalumbana kusiŵika kwa jwakugosa feza sya Nyuumba ja Akunnungu pakuŵa sili feza sisyapatikene kwa kuulaga.”
Abaphristi abakhulu bazidobha inhlamvu zemali lezo bathi, “Kungaphandle komthetho ukufaka imali le esitsheni somnikelo ngoba yimali yegazi.”
7 Nipele, ŵajilene, ŵasumile ngunda wa lilongo kuti paŵe pakwasichila achalendo.
Ngakho basebemisa ukuyisebenzisa ukuthenga isiqinti sombumbi sibe yindawo yamangcwaba abantu bezizweni.
8 Nipele, mpaka lelo jino wele ngunda wo ukuŵilanjikwa ngunda uwasumikwe kwa feza sisyapatikene kwa kuulaga.
Yikho yabizwa ngokuthi yiNsimu yeGazi kuze kube namuhla.
9 Kwa yeleyo maloŵe gaŵaŵechete che Yelemia jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu gamalile gagakuti, “Ŵajigele ipande selasini ya feza, malinga ni malipilo gaŵajilene Ŵaisilaeli kulipa kwa ligongo lyao.
Kwasekugcwaliseka okwakhulunywa nguJeremiya umphrofethi ukuthi: “Bathatha inhlamvu zesiliva ezingamatshumi amathathu, intengo eyamiswa ngaye ngabantu bako-Israyeli,
10 Feza syo ŵasumile ngunda wa lilongo, mpela iŵanajisye Ambuje.”
bazisebenzisa ukuthenga insimu yombumbi, njengokulaywa kwami yiNkosi.”
11 Che Yesu ŵajimi mmbujo mwa jwankulu jwa chilambo. Nipele, jwankulu jwa Chiloma ŵammusisye, “Ana mmwe ni Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi?” Che Yesu ŵanjanjile, “Mmwe mmechete.”
Ngalesosikhathi uJesu wamiswa phambi kombusi, umbusi wasebuza wathi, “Uyinkosi yamaJuda na?” “Njengoba usitsho,” kuphendula uJesu.
12 Nambo achakulu ŵambopesi ni achachekulu paŵammechetelaga, nganajanga.
Wayesithi nxa ethonisiswa ngabaphristi abakhulu labadala angaze aphendula.
13 Nipele che Pilato ŵammusisye, “Ana ngankupilikana ganagose gele gakummechetela go?”
UPhilathu wasembuza wathi, “Awubuzwa yini ubufakazi abakwethesa bona?”
14 Nambo Che Yesu nganajanga namose liloŵe limo, jwankulu jwa Chiloma jo ŵasimosile nnope.
Kodwa uJesu wathula, kazaphendula lamlandu munye, okwamangalisa umbusi kakhulu.
15 Yasyoŵeleche jwankulu jwa Chiloma kwagopolela Myahudi jumo jwataŵikwe juŵansachile katema ka chindimba cha Pasaka.
Kwakungumkhuba wakhe umbusi ukuthi ngomkhosi akhulule isibotshwa esikhethwe lixuku labantu.
16 Kele katema ko paliji ni jwantawe juŵamanyiche nnope, liina lyakwe che Balaba.
Ngalesosikhathi kwakulesibotshwa esasigange kubi, sithiwa nguJesu isibongo saso singuBharabhasi.
17 Nipele, paŵasongangene ŵandu pamo, che Pilato ŵausisye, “Ana nkusaka nangopole jwapi mwa ŵele ŵaŵili, che Balaba pane Che Yesu jwakuŵilanjikwa Kilisito?”
Kuthe abantu sebebuthene uPhilathu wababuza wathi, “Lifuna ngilikhululele wuphi na, uBharabhasi loba uJesu othiwa nguKhristu?”
18 Pakuŵa ŵaimanyilile kuti ŵantyosisye kwa ligongo lya wiu.
Ngoba wayesazi ukuthi kwakungenxa yomhawu okwenza banikela uJesu kuye.
19 Che Pilato paŵatemi pa chitengu cha kulamulila, ŵankwawo ŵaichenawo utenga wanti, “Nkalipasyapasya kutenda chachili chose nkati jwele mundu jwambone jo, pakuŵa lelo lasile mu sagamisi kwa ligongo lyakwe.”
Kwathi uPhilathu esahlezi esihlalweni sakhe sokwahlulela, umkakhe wamthumela ilizwi wathi: “Ungayingeni indaba yomuntu lowo ongelacala, ngoba lamuhla ngihluphekile kakhulu ngaye emaphutsheni.”
20 Nambo achakulu ŵambopesi ni achakulu ŵane ŵanyenjile ŵandu kuti ŵaŵende agopolwe che Balaba ni ŵaulaje Che Yesu.
Kodwa abaphristi abakhulu labadala bakhuthaza abantu ukuthi bacele uBharabhasi, bathi uJesu kabulawe.
21 Che Pilato ŵausisye ŵanyawo, “Nkunsaka jwapi nangopolele mwa ŵele ŵaŵili ŵa?” Ŵajanjile, “Che Balaba!”
Wabuza umbusi wathi, “Lifuna ngilikhululele wuphi phakathi kwalaba ababili na?” Baphendula bathi, “UBharabhasi.”
22 Che Pilato ŵausisye ŵanyawo, “Sano, naatende chichi Che Yesu jwakuŵilanjikwa Kilisito?” Ŵanawose ŵatite, “Mwaŵambe pa nsalaba!”
UPhilathu wabuza wathi, “Pho ngenzeni ngoJesu othiwa nguKhristu?” Bonke bamphendula bathi, “Mbethele!”
23 Nambo che Pilato ŵausisye, “Ligongochi? Ungalumbana chi watesile?” Ŵanyawo ŵanyanyisye achitiji, “Mwaŵambe pa nsalaba!”
UPhilathu wabuza wathi, “Yindaba? Woneni?” Kodwa bamemeza ngamandla bathi, “Mbethele!”
24 Nipele, che Pilato paŵaiweni kuti ngakukombola kupanganya chachili chose nambo kutindiganya kukutanda, ŵajigele meesi ni kunaŵa makono mmbujo pa ŵandu ni ŵatite, “Une ngangulipasyapasya nkati chiwa cha aju mundu ju, chinyimanyilile mwachinsyene.”
Kwathi uPhilathu esebona ukuthi akusela enye indlela, kwasekuzavuka isiyaluyalu, wathatha amanzi wageza izandla zakhe phambi kwexuku wathi, “Angilacala ngegazi lalumuntu. Ngumlandu wenu!”
25 Ŵandu ŵanawose ŵatite, “Miasi jao jiŵe pachanya petu ni achiŵana ŵetu!”
Bonke abantu bamphendula bathi, “Yekela igazi lakhe libe phezu kwethu laphezu kwabantwabethu!”
26 Nipele che Pilato ŵagopolele che Balaba kutyochela mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa, nambo paŵamasile kumputa Che Yesu ibokola ŵantyosisye kukwaŵamba pa nsalaba.
Wasebakhululela uBharabhasi. Wathi uJesu katshaywe, wasemnikeza ukuba abethelwe.
27 Nipele ŵangondo ŵa jwankulu jwa Chiloma ŵanjinjisye Che Yesu nkati likome, wansyungwile mpingo wose.
Amabutho ombusi asemthatha uJesu amngenisa ePhritoriyamu, inkundla yombusi, wabuthanelwa liviyo lonke lamabutho.
28 Ŵammusile nguo syao, ŵammwasisye mwinjilo wechejeu wa chimwenye.
Bamkhulula izigqoko zakhe bamgqokisa ijazi elibomvu,
29 Nipele ŵakolosiye chindu mpela singwa ja miiŵa, ŵammwasisye mu ntwe, sooni ŵammichile nnasi kundyo. Ŵatindiŵele mmbujo mwao ni kuntendela chanache achitiji, “Tukunkomasya Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi!”
basebeseluka umqhele wameva bamethesa wona. Bamphathisa intonga kwesokunene sakhe baguqa phambi kwakhe bamklolodela. Bathi, “Bayethe, Nkosi yamaJuda!”
30 Ŵansunile mata, ŵaujigele nnasi ula ni kumputa mu ntwe.
Bamkhafulela, bamthathela lowomqwayi bamtshaya bemphindaphinda ekhanda.
31 Paŵamasile kuntendela chanache, ŵammusile mwinjilo ula ni kuntakusya nguo syao, nipele ŵampeleche kukwaŵamba pa nsalaba.
Sebemklolodele, bamhlubula ijazi bamgqokisa ezakhe. Basebemqhuba besiya mbethela.
32 Paŵajaulaga, ŵansimene mundu jumo liina lyakwe che Simoni jwa musi wa ku Kulene, ŵankanganichisye kujigala nsalaba u Che Yesu.
Bathi sebephumela ngaphandle bahlangana lendoda yaseKhureni, ethiwa nguSimoni, bayibamba ngamandla ukuthi ithwale isiphambano.
33 Paŵaiche peuto papakuŵilanjikwa Goligota, malumbo gakwe, peuto pa Chikalakasa cha Ntwe,
Bafika endaweni ethiwa kuseGoligotha (okutsho ukuthi “Indawo yoKhakhayi”).
34 ŵampele divai jewanganye chindu chakuŵaŵa kutyosya kupeteka. Nambo Che Yesu nkupasya pe ŵakanile kung'wa.
Khonapho uJesu bamupha iwayini ukuba anathe, lixutshaniswe lenyongo; kodwa wonela ukulinambitha wasesala ukulinatha.
35 Ŵaŵambile pa nsalaba, nipele ŵagaŵene nguo syao kwakutendela gudugudu.
Kwathi sebembethele behlukaniselana izigqoko zakhe ngokwenza inkatho.
36 Ŵatemi pepala, ŵaliji nkwalindilila.
Bahlala phansi bamlinda khonapho.
37 Pachanya ntwe wakwe pa nsalaba ŵaŵisile chibao cha maloŵe gagalembekwe, “Aŵa ni Che Yesu, Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi.”
Phezu kwekhanda lakhe babeka umbhalo wecala lakhe owawusithi, Lo nguJesu, iNkosi yamaJuda.
38 Paliji ni ŵachiswamba ŵaŵili ŵaŵambikwe pamo nawo, jumo kunchiji ni jwine kundyo.
Izigebenga ezimbili zabethelwa kanye laye, esinye ngakwesokunene sakhe, esinye ngakwesokhohlo.
39 Ŵandu ŵaŵapitaga pelepo ŵantukene achipukunyaga mitwe jao nikuti,
Labo ababesedlula lapho babemhlambaza, benikina amakhanda besithi,
40 “Mmwe jumwatite kuti nkukombola kujigumula Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ni kujitaŵa kwa moŵa gatatu. Sambano nlikulupusye mwasyene. Iŵaga mmwe ndi Mwana jwa Akunnungu, ntuluche pa nsalaba po!”
“Wena ozadiliza ithempeli ulakhe ngezinsuku ezintathu, zisindise! Yehla esiphambanweni nxa uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu!”
41 Iyoyo peyo achakulu ŵambopesi pamo ni ŵakwiganya malajisyo ni achachekulu ŵantendele chanache achitiji,
Ngokunjalo abaphristi abakhulu, labafundisi bomthetho kanye labadala bamklolodela.
42 “Ŵakulupwisye ŵane, nambo asyene ngakukombola kulikulupusya! Iŵaga ŵele ali Mwenye jwa Ŵaisilaeli! Sambano atuluche pa nsalaba po, noweji tutwakulupile.
Bathi, “Wasindisa abanye, kodwa uyehluleka ukuzisindisa yena! UyiNkosi yako-Israyeli! Kehle manje esiphambanweni ukuze simkholwe.
43 Ŵaakulupilile Akunnungu ni kuŵecheta kuti ŵele ali Mwana jwa Akunnungu, nipele, iŵaga Akunnungu akunsaka ŵakulupusye sambano.”
Uthembele kuNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu kamsindise phela manje nxa emfuna, ngoba wathi, ‘NgiyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu.’”
44 Iyoyo peyo ŵeŵala uŵaŵambikwe pamo nawo pa nsalaba nombe ŵantukene.
Ngaleyondlela izigebenga ezazibethelwe kanye laye lazo zamthethisa ngenhlamba.
45 Chitandile lyuŵa pantwe mpaka saa tisa, chilambo chose chaliji chipi.
Kusukela emini kwaze kwaba lihola lesithathu emini ubumnyama bembesa lonke ilizwe.
46 Pajaiche saa tisa Che Yesu ŵalisile kwa liloŵe lyekulungwa, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabakitani?” Malumbo gakwe, “Akunnungu ŵangu, Akunnungu ŵangu, kwachichi mulesile?”
Ngehola lesithathu emini uJesu wamemeza ngelizwi elikhulu wathi, “Eloyi, Eloyi, lamasabakithani?” (okutsho ukuthi, “Nkulunkulu wami, Nkulunkulu wami, kungani usungidelile na?”).
47 Nambo ŵandu ŵane ŵaŵajimi pele paŵapilikene yele ŵatite, “Akwaŵilanga che Elia.”
Kwathi abanye kwababemi lapho bekuzwa lokho bathi, “Ubiza u-Elija.”
48 Jumo jwao ŵautwiche, ŵajigele lidodoki ni kunyoya mu divai jakuipa, ŵajiŵisile mu nnasi, ŵapele ang'we.
Masinyane omunye wabo wagijima wathatha isipontshi. Wasicwilisa phakathi kwewayini elimunyu, wasixhuma oluthini wasidlulisela kuJesu ukuthi anathe.
49 Ŵane ŵatite, “Nnindilile tulole iŵaga che Elia chaiche kukwakulupusya.”
Abanengi bathi, “Myekele. Ake sibone ingabe u-Elija uzakuza azomsindisa.”
50 Nipele, Che Yesu ŵalisile sooni kwa liloŵe lyekulungwa, ŵajasiche.
UJesu esephindile ukumemeza ngelizwi elikhulu, umoya wakhe waphuma.
51 Pelepo nguo ja lusasa ja Nyuumba ja Akunnungu japapwiche pambindikati, kutyochela mwinani mpaka paasi, chilambo chatinganyiche ni lwala syapalwiche.
Ngalesosikhathi ikhetheni lethempeli laqhekezeka kabili kusukela phezulu kusiya phansi. Umhlaba wazamazama lamatshe aqhekezeka.
52 Malembe gaunukwiche ni iilu ya ŵandu ŵajinji ŵa Akunnungu ŵaŵajasiche ŵasyuchikwe.
Amathuna avuleka, izidumbu zabantu abanengi abangcwele abafayo zavuswa kwabafileyo.
53 Nombewo ŵakopweche mmalembe, ni Che Yesu paŵamasile kusyuka, ŵajinjile mu mmusi wa Akunnungu, yaani Yelusalemu, ni ŵandu ŵajinji ŵaweni.
Baphuma emathuneni, kwathi ngemva kokuvuka kukaJesu kwabafileyo baya edolobheni elingcwele bavela ebantwini abanengi.
54 Nipele, jwankulu jwa ŵangondo ni ŵangondo ŵane ŵaŵaliji pamo nawo achinlindililaga Che Yesu paŵachiweni chilambo chininkutinganyika ni gagakopochele gala, ŵajogwepe nnope, ŵatite, “Isyene aju mundu ju ŵaliji Mwana jwa Akunnungu.”
Kwathi ukuba induna yekhulu kanye lalabo ababelinde uJesu bebona ukuzamazama komhlaba kanye lakho konke okwakwenzakele, besaba kakhulu, bababaza bathi, “Ngempela ubeyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu!”
55 Pelepo paliji ni achakongwe ŵajinji ŵaŵalolechesyaga kwakutali. Ŵanyawo ni ŵeŵala ŵaŵankuiye Che Yesu kutyochela ku Galilaya ni kwatumichila.
Kwakulabesifazane abanengi, bebukele bebucwala. Babelandele uJesu besuka eGalile ukuthi banakekele izinswelo zakhe.
56 Mwa ŵele ŵanyawo ŵaliji che Maliamu jwa musi wa ku Magidala ni che Maliamu achikulugwe che Yakobo ni che Yusufu, pamo ni achikulu ŵa ŵanache ŵa che Sebedayo.
Phakathi kwabo kwakuloMariya Magadalini, loMariya unina kaJakhobe loJosefa kanye lonina wamadodana kaZebhediya.
57 Pakwaswele, ŵaiche mundu jumo jwa chipanje jwa musi wa ku Alimataya liina lyao che Yusufu, nombejo jwaliji jwakulijiganya jwa Che Yesu.
Kwathi ilanga selithambeme, kwafika indoda enothileyo yase-Arimathiya, eyayibizwa ngokuthi nguJosefa, yena owayesengumfundi kaJesu.
58 Ŵajawile kwa che Pilato, ŵaŵendile apegwe chiilu chi Che Yesu. Che Pilato ŵalamwile kuti apegwe.
Waya kuPhilathu wayacela isidumbu sikaJesu, uPhilathu walaya ukuba asiphiwe.
59 Che Yusufu ŵachijigele chiilu chila, ŵachiŵijilile nguo jeswela mbee jajili jasambano,
UJosefa wasithatha isidumbu wasigoqela ngelembu elihlanzekileyo lelineni,
60 Che Yusufu ŵachiŵisile chiilu chi Che Yesu mu lilembe lyasambano liŵasepile palwala kwa ligongo lyakwe nsyene. Nipele, ŵaligalambulile liganga lyekulungwa pa nnango wa lilembe ni kutyoka.
wayasibeka ethuneni lakhe elitsha ayeligubhe edwaleni. Wagiqela ilitshe elikhulu emlonyeni wethuna wasehamba.
61 Che Maliamu jwa musi wa ku Magidala ni che Maliamu ŵane ŵala ŵatemi aninkulolechesya ku lilembe.
UMariya Magadalini lomunye uMariya babehlezi khonapho malungana lethuna.
62 Malaŵi jakwe, yaani lyuŵa lyakuliŵika chile kwa ligongo lya Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila, achakulu ŵambopesi ni Mafalisayo ŵajaulile che Pilato,
Ngosuku olulandelayo, oluza ngemva kosuku lokuLungisela, abaphristi abakhulu labaFarisi baya kuPhilathu.
63 Ŵatite, “Achimwene, tukukumbuchila kuti jwakulambusya jula akanaŵe kuwa ŵatite, ‘Pakumala moŵa gatatu chisyuche.’
Bathi, “Nkosi, siyakhumbula ukuthi esaphila umkhohlisi loyana wathi yena, ‘Ngemva kwensuku ezintathu ngizavuka kwabafileyo.’
64 Kwayele tukummenda mwasalile ŵangondo ajaule akalilindilile lilembe kwa moŵa gatatu, kuti ŵakulijiganya ŵao anakombole kuchijigala chiilu chao ni kwasalila ŵandu kuti asyuchile. Akuno kulambusya kwa mbesi kuno chikuŵe kwawamba nnope kupunda kwaandanda kula.”
Ngakho yenza ukuthi ithuna lilindwe kuze kube lusuku lwesithathu. Engxenye abafundi bakhe bangeza bantshontshe isidumbu sakhe, batshele abantu ukuthi usevukile kwabafileyo. Inkohliso le ingabambi kakhulu kuleyakuqala.”
65 Che Pilato ŵaasalile, “Ayaga, nkwete ŵangondo, njaule nkalilindilile inkuti pakukombola.”
UPhilathu waphendula wathi, “Thathani abalindi. Hambani liyevikela ithuna njengokubona kwenu.”
66 Nipele, ŵajawile, ŵalilindilile lilembe, ŵaŵisile chiugulilo peganga ni kwaleka ŵangondo kulindilila.
Basebehamba ukuyalinda lokuqinisa ithuna ngokubeka uphawu phezu kwelitshe njalo bamisa abalindi.
