< Matthew 27 >

1 Now when morning had come, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death.
Lukela pehe, vakulu voha va kuteta, pamonga na vagogo va Chiyawudi vakajovesana ndava ya kumkoma Yesu.
2 They bound him, led him away, and delivered him up to Pontius Pilate, the governor.
Hinu vakamukunga, vakamutola na kumgotola kwa Pilatu mweavimkulu wa Loma.
3 Then Judas, who betrayed him, when he saw that Jesus was condemned, felt remorse, and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,
Kangi Yuda, mweamng'anamwikili Yesu paavawene kuvya vamali kumuhamula Yesu, akang'ahika neju mumtima waki, avawuyisili vakulu va kuteta mashonga gala hipandi selasini.
4 saying, “I have sinned in that I betrayed innocent blood.” But they said, “What is that to us? You see to it.”
Akavajovela, “Nibudili kumng'anamukila mundu angabuda akomiwa.” Nambu vene, vakayangula, “Lenilo ndi lihengu laku? Umanya wamwene.”
5 He threw down the pieces of silver in the sanctuary and departed. Then he went away and hanged himself.
Mwene akataga hipandi ya mashonga gala Munyumba ya Chapanga, akahuma kuvala ya Nyumba ya Chapanga na kuhamba kujikungila.
6 The chief priests took the pieces of silver and said, “It’s not lawful to put them into the treasury, since it is the price of blood.”
Vakulu va kuteta vakatola mashonga genago, vakajova, “Mumbele ya malagizu gitu kuvika muchibana cha Nyumba ya Chapanga ndava muni mashonga gegapatikini kwa kukoma.”
7 They took counsel, and bought the potter’s field with them to bury strangers in.
Hinu vakajovesana, vakatola mashonga gala kugula mgunda wa ludaka muni pavyaa pandu pa kuzikila vayehe.
8 Therefore that field has been called “The Field of Blood” to this day.
Ndava ya genago, hati lelu mgunda wenuwo wikemelewa “Mgunda ngasi mana yaki mgunda weuguliwi kwa ukomaji.”
9 Then that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying, “They took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him upon whom a price had been set, whom some of the children of Israel priced,
Ndi chagatimalili malovi ga Yelemia mweavi mlota wa Chapanga, “Valotili mashonga hipandi selasini, mashonga ya mwenuyo luhuna lwa vandu va Isilaeli.
10 and they gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord commanded me.”
Vakahengela kugula mgunda wa madakali, ngati chealagazili Bambu.”
11 Now Jesus stood before the governor; and the governor asked him, saying, “Are you the King of the Jews?” Jesus said to him, “So you say.”
Yesu akayima palongolo ya mkulu wa Loma, ndi mkulu yula akamkota, “Veve, ndi wa Nkosi wa Vayawudi?” Yesu akayangula, “Genago ndi ujovili wamwene.”
12 When he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.
Nambu vakulu va kuteta na vagogo pevamtakili, mwene ayangwili lepi lilovi.
13 Then Pilate said to him, “Do not you hear how many things they testify against you?”
Kangi Pilatu akamkota “Wu, wiyuwana lepi matakilu gevakukutakila veve?”
14 He gave him no answer, not even one word, so that the governor marveled greatly.
Nambu Yesu ayangwili lepi hati lilovi limonga, mkulu wa Loma akakangasa neju.
15 Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to release to the multitude one prisoner whom they desired.
Hinu yavi mvelu wa mkulu wa Loma lukumbi lwa mselebuko wa Pasaka, kuvadindulila Vayawudi mkungiwa mmonga mwevakumgana.
16 They had then a notable prisoner called Barabbas.
Lukumbi lwenulo peavili na mkungiwa mmonga mweamanyikini neju, mweikemiwa Balaba.
17 When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?”
Ndi, vandu pavakonganiki pamonga, Pilatu akavakota, “Mwigana nivadindulilayi yani pagati ya vavili ava, Balaba amala Yesu mweikemiwa Kilisitu?”
18 For he knew that because of envy they had delivered him up.
Ndava muni amanyili kuvya vachilongosi va chiyawudi vamuwusili Yesu ndava ya wihu.
19 While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, “Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered many things today in a dream because of him.”
Pilatu peatamili pachigoda chaki cha uhamula, mdala waki ampelikili ujumbi, “Ukoto kumhengela chindu chochoa mundu uyu angahoka ndava lelu nin'gaiki neju munjozi ndava ya mwenuyo.”
20 Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes to ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus.
Nambu vakulu va kuteta na vagogo vakuvakulukisa vandu vamyupa Balaba adinduliwa na Yesu akomiwa.
21 But the governor answered them, “Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” They said, “Barabbas!”
Pilatu akavakota, “Ndi yani pagati ava vavili mwemukumgana nivadindulilayi nyenye?” Vakamyangula mdindulayi, “Balaba!”
22 Pilate said to them, “What then shall I do to Jesus who is called Christ?” They all said to him, “Let him be crucified!”
Pilatu akavakota kavili, “Hinu nikita kyani na Yesu nweikemiwa Kilisitu?” Voha vakayangula, “Avambiwa pamsalaba!”
23 But the governor said, “Why? What evil has he done?” But they cried out exceedingly, saying, “Let him be crucified!”
Nambu Pilatu akavakota, “Ndava kyani? Abudili kiki?” Ndi vene vakajova kwa lwami luvaha, “Avambiwa pamsalaba!”
24 So when Pilate saw that nothing was being gained, but rather that a disturbance was starting, he took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, “I am innocent of the blood of this righteous person. You see to it.”
Hinu, Pilatu paamanyili ngati yihotoleka lepi kuvagunisa, chitutu chitumbula, akatola manji, akasamba mawoko palongolo ya msambi wa vandu, akajova, “Yikunivala lepi ngasi ya mundu uyu, kwali mwavene.”
25 All the people answered, “May his blood be on us and on our children!”
Vandu voha vakayangula, “Ngasi yaki yeyitika yivya ndava ya tete na vana vitu!”
26 Then he released Barabbas to them, but Jesus he flogged and delivered to be crucified.
Kangi Pilatu akamdindulila Balaba kuhuma muchifungu, na kumtova michapilu akamgotola Yesu avambiwa pamsalaba.
27 Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium, and gathered the whole garrison together against him.
Kangi manjolinjoli ga mkulu wa Loma, vamyingisi Yesu mugati ya nyumba ya nkosi, ndi manjolinjoli vakakonganeka msambi woha.
28 They stripped him and put a scarlet robe on him.
Vakamuwula nyula zaki, vakamuwalika nyula yidung'u ya chinkosi.
29 They braided a crown of thorns and put it on his head, and a reed in his right hand; and they kneeled down before him and mocked him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
Kangi vakabota njingwa ya minga, vamuwaliki kumutu, vakamvikila mlayi muchiwoko chaki cha kulyela. Vakafugama palongolo yaki ndi vamvevisi vakumjovela, “Tukuwoni Nkosi wa Vayawudi!”
30 They spat on him, and took the reed and struck him on the head.
Vakamuhunyila mata, vakatola mlayi wula, vakamtova nawu kumutu.
31 When they had mocked him, they took the robe off him, and put his clothes on him, and led him away to crucify him.
Pavamali kumvevesa, vakamuwula ligwanda lenilo, vamuwaliki nyula zaki, kangi vakamhindikila pa kumvamba pamsalaba.
32 As they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name, and they compelled him to go with them, that he might carry his cross.
Pavavi mukuhamba vamkolili mundu mmonga liina laki Simoni mkolonjinji wa Kulene, kwa makakala vamgegisi msalaba wa Yesu.
33 When they came to a place called “Golgotha”, that is to say, “The place of a skull,”
Pavahikili pandu pepikemelewa Goligota, mana yaki “Libangu la Mutu.”
34 they gave him sour wine to drink mixed with gall. When he had tasted it, he would not drink.
Vakampela divayi yeyihangisini na nyongo. Nambu Yesu peamiyangili akabela kunywa.
35 When they had crucified him, they divided his clothing among them, casting lots,
Pavamali kumvamba pamsalaba, ndi vakatovela gudugudu kugavana nyula zaki.
36 and they sat and watched him there.
Manjolinjoli vakatama penapo kumulindalila.
37 They set up over his head the accusation against him written, “THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
Panani ya mutu waki pamsalaba, vakayandika matakilu ga kumvala mwene “Mwenuyu ndi Yesu, Nkosi va Vayawudi.”
38 Then there were two robbers crucified with him, one on his right hand and one on the left.
Mewawa kwavi na vanyagaji vavili vavambiwi mu misalaba pamonga na Yesu, mmonga upandi waki wa kulyela na yungi upandi wa kumangeya.
39 Those who passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads
Vandu vevapitayi njila yeniyo vamligili kuni vinyugusa mitu yavi na kujova,
40 and saying, “You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save yourself! If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross!”
“Veve lepi! Mwewajova wihotola kudenya Nyumba ya Chapanga na kujenga kavili pamagono gadatu? Hinu ujisangula wamwene. Ngati veve wa Mwana wa Chapanga, ndi huluka pamsalaba!”
41 Likewise the chief priests also mocking with the scribes, the Pharisees, and the elders, said,
Mewawa vakulu va kuteta pamonga na vawula va malagizu na vagogo vamvevisi, na kujova,
42 “He saved others, but he cannot save himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him come down from the cross now, and we will believe in him.
“Avasangwili vayaki, ihotola lepi kujisangula mwene! Ati mwene ndi Nkosi wa vandu va Isilaeli! Hinu ahulukayi pamsalaba na tete yati tikumsadika mwene.
43 He trusts in God. Let God deliver him now, if he wants him; for he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”
Amhuvalili Chapanga na kujova mwene ndi Mwana wa Chapanga! Ngati Chapanga akumgana ihotola kumsangula!”
44 The robbers also who were crucified with him cast on him the same reproach.
Mewawa vala vanyagaji veavambiwi nawu pamsalaba pamonga vamligili.
45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.
Kuhumila muhi wa saa sita mbaka saa tisa, chitita chatindili mulima woha.
46 About the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lima sabachthani?” That is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
Hinu payahikili saa tisa, Yesu akavemba neju, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabakitani?” Mana yaki, “Chapanga wangu, Chapanga wangu, ndava kyani unilekili?”
47 Some of them who stood there, when they heard it, said, “This man is calling Elijah.”
Nambu vandu vangi vevayimili pala pevayuwini genago vakajova, “Akumkemela Eliya.”
48 Immediately one of them ran and took a sponge, filled it with vinegar, put it on a reed, and gave him a drink.
Mmonga wavi akajumba akatola lidodoki, akajwiga mudivayi yivavanu akaivika mumlayi akampela anywai.
49 The rest said, “Let him be. Let’s see whether Elijah comes to save him.”
Nambu vangi vakajova, “Leka tiloli ngati Eliya ibwela kumsangula.”
50 Jesus cried again with a loud voice, and yielded up his spirit.
Ndi Yesu akavembeneka kwa lwami luvaha, akafwa.
51 Behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from the top to the bottom. The earth quaked and the rocks were split.
Penapo lipazia la Nyumba ya Chapanga lapapwiki hipandi hivili kuhumila kunani mbaka pahi, mulima woha wandendimi, na matalahu gakabayuka,
52 The tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised;
matinda gagubwiki na vandu va Chapanga vamahele vevafwili vayukili.
53 and coming out of the tombs after his resurrection, they entered into the holy city and appeared to many.
Pevahumili mumatinda gavi, Yesu peamali kuyuka pamonga nawu, vakayingila Pamuji wa Msopi ndi Yelusalemu vawonikini na vandu vamahele.
54 Now the centurion and those who were with him watching Jesus, when they saw the earthquake and the things that were done, were terrified, saying, “Truly this was the Son of God!”
Hinu, mkulu yula pamonga na manjolinjoli vevamyangalila Yesu, pavauwene mulima windendema na goha gegahumalili, vakayogopa neju, vakajova, “Chakaka mundu mwenuyu avi Mwana wa Chapanga.”
55 Many women were there watching from afar, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, serving him.
Pandu penapo kwavi na vadala vamahele vevatamili vilolokesa cha kutali, venavo ndi vevamlandili Yesu kuhuma ku Galilaya vakumhengela.
56 Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
Pagati yavi avili Maliya kuhuma Magidala na Maliya nyina wavi Yakobo na Yosefu, pamonga na nyina wavi vana va Zebedayo.
57 When evening had come, a rich man from Arimathaea named Joseph, who himself was also Jesus’ disciple, came.
Palatipimi lilanga, abwelili mundu mmonga mkolo vindu vyamahele mkolonjinji wa Alimatei, liina laki Yosefu. Mwenuyu mewa avi muwuliwa wa Yesu.
58 This man went to Pilate and asked for Jesus’ body. Then Pilate commanded the body to be given up.
Amhambili Pilatu, akamuyupa higa ya Yesu. Pilatu akahamula vampelayi.
59 Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth
Yosefu akayitola higa yila na kuutindisila nyula ya msopi,
60 and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut out in the rock. Then he rolled a large stone against the door of the tomb, and departed.
akauvika mulitinda laki la mupya leahongwili mulitalau, akalibilingisa liganga livaha kudinda mlyangu wa litinda akawuka.
61 Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the tomb.
Maliya mkolonjinji wa Magidala na Maliya yungi yula vatamili kulolokesa litinda.
62 Now on the next day, which was the day after the Preparation Day, the chief priests and the Pharisees were gathered together to Pilate,
Chilau yaki, ndi Ligono la Kupumulila, ndi vakulu vakuteta na Vafalisayu vamhambili Pilatu.
63 saying, “Sir, we remember what that deceiver said while he was still alive: ‘After three days I will rise again.’
Vakajova “Mkulu, tikumbwiki kuvya yula mchenjela ajovili peavili mumi kuvya akafwayi yati iyuka pagimalika magono gadatu,
64 Command therefore that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest perhaps his disciples come at night and steal him away, and tell the people, ‘He is risen from the dead;’ and the last deception will be worse than the first.”
Hinu lagiza valonda valindalila litinda mbaka pegimalika magono gadatu ndava vawuliwa vaki vihotola kumuyiva na kuvajovela vandu kuvya ayukili. Muni udese wa pamwishu wenuwu yati wivya uvaha neju kuliku wa kutumbula.”
65 Pilate said to them, “You have a guard. Go, make it as secure as you can.”
Pilatu akavayangula, “Muvi na manjolinjoli, muhamba mukalindila chemwihotola.”
66 So they went with the guard and made the tomb secure, sealing the stone.
Hinu vakahamba kulindila litinda vakavika vidindilu liganga lila, vakaleka manjolinjoli bahapo vakulilindila.
