Luke 23
1 The whole company of them rose up and brought him before Pilate.
Inkopano yonse chiya zimana mwi wulu, ni kuleta Jesu kwa Pilato.
2 They began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man perverting the nation, forbidding paying taxes to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ, a king.”
Chiba muhambiliza indaba, kuti; “twa wana uzu muntu na hambusa mahasi etu; u kanisa bantu ku zwisikiza Sesara mutelo, mi ulisumpa kuti njeye krisite, Ireeza”.
3 Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered him, “So you say.”
Pilato cha mubuza, “kuti kana nji we Ireeza wa majuda?” Chetaba kuti, “wa wamba”.
4 Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”
Pilato cha wambila Maprisita bakulwna ni nyangela, kani wani mulandu kozu muntu.
5 But they insisted, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place.”
Chiba koza kuti “U lyanganisa chisi, Na kwete kuluta bantu mwa Judea yonse, a sali kutanga kwa Galilea, nikwiza kusika kunu”.
6 But when Pilate heard Galilee mentioned, he asked if the man was a Galilean.
Pilato hazuwa zo, cha buza kuti kanti Jesu Mugalilea.
7 When he found out that he was in Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem during those days.
Mi halemuha kuti ukazwa mwi puso ya Heroda, cha tumina Jesu kwa Heroda, uzo ya bali kwi kala naye mwa Jelusalema awo mazuba.
8 Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad, for he had wanted to see him for a long time, because he had heard many things about him. He hoped to see some miracle done by him.
Heroda ha bona Jesu, aba tabi maswe, ka kuli aba hindi inako na saka kumu bona, kazitu zingi za kwe za bazuwi, mi aba sepete kuti kamu bone na tenda imakazo.
9 He questioned him with many words, but he gave no answers.
Heroda aba buzi Jesu cha manzwi mangi, kono Jesu kena betabi chimwi.
10 The chief priests and the scribes stood, vehemently accusing him.
Baprisita ba kulwana ni bañoli chiba zimana, chiba muzinga indaba ko kukoza.
11 Herod with his soldiers humiliated him and mocked him. Dressing him in luxurious clothing, they sent him back to Pilate.
Heroda niba libeleli bakwe chiba mutuka, kumu shewununa, niku muzwatika zi zwato zilotu, niku muboza Jesu kwa Pilato hape.
12 Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before that they were enemies with each other.
Pilato ni Heroda chibaba muntu ni mulikani lolo luzuba, kono ibali muntu ni chila chakwe.
13 Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,
Imi pilato cha kunganya ba prisita niba yendisi babo mane ni chisi.
14 and said to them, “You brought this man to me as one that perverts the people, and behold, having examined him before you, I found no basis for a charge against this man concerning those things of which you accuse him.
Chose cha wamba ku bali, “mwani letela uzu muntu, ni mucho kuti uzo yo hambusa chisi, ime namu buza habusu bwenu, kono kena na wana bubi bwakwe uzu mukwame ku amana nizi mu kwete kumu hambiliza.
15 Neither has Herod, for I sent you to him, and see, nothing worthy of death has been done by him.
Imi naye Hereda wa bona bulyo, cingi wa muboza kwetu, Ka mulole, Uzu muntu ka kwina cha foseze chi wola kumu cwala ku kwi haiwa.
16 I will therefore chastise him and release him.”
Imi he kani mushupe niku mulukulula”.
17 Now he had to release one prisoner to them at the feast.
18 But they all cried out together, saying, “Away with this man! Release to us Barabbas!”—
Imi machaba onse aba huwelezi, ni kuti “ehawe uzo mi ulukulule Barabasi!”
19 one who was thrown into prison for a certain revolt in the city, and for murder.
I ye Barabasi aba bikwa mwi tolongo ibaka lyo kuleta mulandu mu munzi ni kwi haya.
20 Then Pilate spoke to them again, wanting to release Jesus,
Pilato cho kutabela kulukulula Jesu cha wamba nabo hape.
21 but they shouted, saying, “Crucify! Crucify him!”
Chiba huweleza kuti aye ha chi fapano, “mi akokotelwe”. Chawamba nabo hape totatwe
22 He said to them the third time, “Why? What evil has this man done? I have found no capital crime in him. I will therefore chastise him and release him.”
“kuti kanti chibi cha foseze uzu mukwame njezihi? Chi swanela ifu lya kwe, ka kwina chafoseze, kani mushupe niku mulukulula”.
23 But they were urgent with loud voices, asking that he might be crucified. Their voices and the voices of the chief priests prevailed.
Kono ba bapiheleli ka manzwi ahanzi, chiba laela kuti a kokotelwe, manzwi abo chi akoma Pilato.
24 Pilate decreed that what they asked for should be done.
Mi Pilato cha kosola indaba, chati ku tendiwe muba sakila.
25 He released him who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, for whom they asked, but he delivered Jesus up to their will.
Imi cha lukulula ya bali kusuminwe mwi tolongo kama fosisa akwe, nika kwi haya, uzo iba kumbila Imi chabaha Jesu kuti ba ntende muba sakila.
26 When they led him away, they grabbed one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, and laid the cross on him to carry it after Jesus.
Haba mutwala ku kwi haiwa, chiba kwata mukwame we zina lya Simoni wa kwa Sireni, ya bali kuzwa ku mawa, niku mutwikisa chifapano, no kwi cilila Jesu,
27 A great multitude of the people followed him, including women who also mourned and lamented him.
vungi bwa chi chava va va mwi chilili, ni vanakazi va vali kulila, chevaka lyakwe.
28 But Jesus, turning to them, said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
Jesu cha sanduka, niku wamba kuti vanakazi va Jerusalema, kanzi mulili ivaka lyangu kono mulile lwenu nilwa vana venu.
29 For behold, the days are coming in which they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren, the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.’
Ka kuti mukwize mazuva ete niva wambe kuti, vena imvuyoti vanakazi vasa zali, niva mavumo aseni ku zala, niva mavele aseni kunyosa.
30 Then they will begin to tell the mountains, ‘Fall on us!’ and tell the hills, ‘Cover us.’
vantu njete niva tange ku wambila ziwulu, vati 'mutuwile hewulu', ni ku tuwulu kavati muntu 'vwike'.
31 For if they do these things in the green tree, what will be done in the dry?”
Kakuti hava tenda izo kuchi kuni chivombete, kakuve vule kuchizumite?”
32 There were also others, two criminals, led with him to be put to death.
Bamwi bakwame, ni zisinyi zobele, baba hitizwe naye kukwi haiwa.
33 When they came to the place that is called “The Skull”, they crucified him there with the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left.
Hava sika haka wulu kasumpwa “Gologota”, chiva mukokotela ha chifapano ha mwina nizi sinyi, chimwi kuvulyo, chimwi kuvuzohoto.
34 Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” Dividing his garments among them, they cast lots.
Jesu chacho, “Tayo Uva kwatile, ka kuti kabezi ziva tenda”. Chiva li aluhanyeza zi zwata za kwe cho ku laula.
35 The people stood watching. The rulers with them also scoffed at him, saying, “He saved others. Let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, his chosen one!”
Chisi chiva zimene, niku lolela kuba ye ndisi hava vali kumu sheunwina, chivati “Avali kutusa vantu, mu muleke ali tuse mwine, heva njeye krisite wa Ireeza, yava ketwa”.
36 The soldiers also mocked him, coming to him and offering him vinegar,
Masole va vakumu nyefula niku chunina niva muchuka vinega,
37 and saying, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!”
Chivati,” haiva U mulena wa majuda uli tuse U mwine.”
38 An inscription was also written over him in letters of Greek, Latin, and Hebrew: “THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
Kuvena chisupo kwali, “Nji Simwine wa Majuda”
39 One of the criminals who was hanged insulted him, saying, “If you are the Christ, save yourself and us!”
Zumwi wa vasa yava hanzi naye chamu tuka kuti, “kanjewe Kresite? Lituse umwine niku tu tusa,
40 But the other answered, and rebuking him said, “Do not you even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?
vamwi chiva munyansa?” Kana kotiyi Ireeza, sina hawina muchi kuka chi swana?
41 And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward for our deeds, but this man has done nothing wrong.”
Iswe itukelo yetu kuva hanu ka kuti tu fosete, tuli tumelela ma fosisa etu, kono uzu mukwame kena mafosisa.
42 He said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when you come into your Kingdom.”
Chazwila ha vusu “Jesu noni hupule mu muvuso wako.”
43 Jesus said to him, “Assuredly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”
Jesu ava wambi kwali, “niku wambila ka vuniti, Sunu mobe name mwi paradaisi”.
44 It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour.
Chivali ku patalala kwe zuva ka sikisi, mi kasinkwe cikeza kuwumba inkanda yonse kutwala ka naini,
45 The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two.
mi chikwava ni kusiha, isila lya mwi kereke chilya ñatuka hakati.
46 Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” Having said this, he breathed his last.
Chalila chezwi lihanzi, Jesu chati, “Tayo, ni vika luhuho lwangu mu mayaza ako.”
47 When the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, “Certainly this was a righteous man.”
Ha mana ku wamba bulyo nicha maniñwa luhuho, iñanga wempi za vakanteli ha vona ziva tendahali, chalumba Ireeza, “ni kuti niti, uzu muntu ava shiyeme”.
48 All the multitudes that came together to see this, when they saw the things that were done, returned home beating their chests.
Imi vungi bwa vantu va vezi kulwela, zi vali ku tenda hala, nichi va vola niva li kava hazi zuva.
49 All his acquaintances and the women who followed with him from Galilee stood at a distance, watching these things.
Imi vavezi Jesu, ni vanakazi va vali ku mwi chilile hakazwa kwa Galilea, va vazimene kule, niva lolete.
50 Behold, there was a man named Joseph, who was a member of the council, a good and righteous man
Mukwatise, ku vena mukwame ya vali kusumpwa Josefa we nkhuta Yecisi, mukwame mulotu yo lukite.
51 (he had not consented to their counsel and deed), from Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, who was also waiting for God’s Kingdom.
I ye kena bazumini milao yabo ni kelezo. Avali kuzwa kwa judea ya kwa Arimathea ava kulindile muvuso we Ireeza.
52 This man went to Pilate, and asked for Jesus’ body.
Uzu mukwame cha yenda kwa Pilato niku ka kumbila chitunta cha Jesu. Chiba muhangula ha chifapano.
53 He took it down and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that was cut in stone, where no one had ever been laid.
Chiva muvwika isila, imi chiva mupata mwikumbu liñatwilwe ni vwe, museni kubikwa muntu.
54 It was the day of the Preparation, and the Sabbath was drawing near.
Imi ilyo izuva ivali lya vuitukiso, lya mukivelo chili vali kutanga.
55 The women who had come with him out of Galilee followed after, and saw the tomb and how his body was laid.
Vanakazi, va vezite naye ku kazwa kwa Galilea, nive chilile Jesu, Niva lolete chitunta muchivikilwa mwa teni,
56 They returned and prepared spices and ointments. On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
chiva vola niku kalitukisa, imi la mukivelo nichi vapumula sina muku layelwe.
