Luke 22
1 Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.
Nʼoge a, Mmemme Achịcha na-ekoghị eko nke a na-akpọ Ngabiga na-eru nso.
2 And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death; for they feared the people.
Ndịisi nchụaja na ndị ozizi iwu nọkwa na-achọ ụzọ ha ga-esi gbuo ya, nʼihi na ha na-atụ egwu ndị mmadụ.
3 And Satan entered into Judas who was called Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.
Mgbe ahụ, ekwensu banyere nʼime Judas, onye a na-akpọ Iskarịọt, otu nʼime mmadụ iri na abụọ na-eso ụzọ ya.
4 And he went away, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might deliver him unto them.
Ọ gakwuru ndịisi nchụaja, na ndịisi ndị nlekọta nke ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, ya na ha akparịta ụka otu ọ ga-esi rara ya nyefee ya nʼaka ha.
5 And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.
Ha ṅụrịrị ọṅụ ma kwekwa nkwa inye ya ego.
6 And he consented, and sought opportunity to deliver him unto them in the absence of the multitude.
O kwenyere, na-achọkwa ohere ga-adị mma ọ ga-eji nyefee ya nʼaka ha mgbe igwe mmadụ na-agaghị anọ.
7 And the day of unleavened bread came, on which the passover must be sacrificed.
O ruo nʼụbọchị Mmemme Achịcha na-ekoghị eko ahụ bụ ụbọchị a na-eji atụrụ Ngabiga achụ aja.
8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and make ready for us the passover, that we may eat.
O zipụrụ Pita na Jọn sị, “Gaanụ kwadoo maka oriri Ngabiga nke anyị ga-eri.”
9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we make ready?
Ha sịrị ya, “Ebee ka ị chọrọ ka anyị gaa kwadoo maka ya?”
10 And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house whereinto he goeth.
Ọ sịrị ha, “Lee, ka unu na-abata nʼobodo, otu nwoke bu ite mmiri ga-ezute unu, soronụ ya baa nʼụlọ ọbụla ọ banyere.
11 And ye shall say unto the master of the house, The Teacher saith unto thee, Where is the guest-chamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?
Sịnụ onyenwe ụlọ ahụ, ‘Onye ozizi sịrị, Olee ụlọ ndị ọbịa ebe mụ na ndị na-eso ụzọ m ga-anọ rie oriri Ngabiga?’
12 And he will show you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.
Ọ ga-egosi unu otu ọnụụlọ buru ibu dị nʼelu ụlọ nke e dozicharala ihe niile, kwadoonụ nri anyị nʼebe ahụ.”
13 And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.
Ha gara chọpụta ihe niile dị ka ọ gwara ha. Ha kwadokwara nri Ngabiga ahụ.
14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the apostles with him.
Mgbe oge awa ahụ ruru, ya na ndị na-eso ụzọ ya gara ebe ahụ nọdụ ala iri ihe.
15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer:
Ọ sịrị ha, “Ọ gụrụ m nnọọ agụụ ka mụ na unu rie nri Ngabiga a tupu mụ ataa ahụhụ.
16 for I say unto you, I shall not eat it, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
Nʼihi na asị m unu, agaghị m erikwa ya ọzọ tutu ruo mgbe a ga-emezu ya nʼalaeze Chineke.”
17 And he received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves:
O buru iko, mgbe o nyechara ekele ọ sịrị, “Burunu nke a kesaa nʼetiti unu.
18 for I say unto you, I shall not drink from henceforth of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.
Nʼihi na asị m unu, site ugbu a ga nʼihu, agaghị m aṅụ mmanya sitere na mkpụrụ vaịnị ọzọ, ruo mgbe alaeze Chineke ga-abịa.”
19 And he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and gave to them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
O werekwara otu ogbe achịcha, mgbe o nyechara ekele, ọ nyawaa ya nye ha sị, “Nke a bụ ahụ m nke e nyere nʼihi unu. Na-emenụ nke a iji na-echeta m.”
20 And the cup in like manner after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood, [even] that which is poured out for you.
Nʼotu ụzọ ahụ, mgbe ha risiri nri anyasị o buuru iko sị, “Iko a bụ iko nke ọgbụgba ndụ ọhụrụ nʼọbara m, nke a na-awụpụ nʼihi unu.
21 But behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table.
Ma lee, onye ahụ nke ga-arara m nye nọnyeere m, o sokwa m na-eri nri.
22 For the Son of man indeed goeth, as it hath been determined: but woe unto that man through whom he is betrayed!
Nwa nke Mmadụ na-aga ịnwụ dị ka e kpebiri ya, ma ahụhụ ga-adịrị nwoke ahụ a ga-esi nʼaka ya rara ya nye.”
23 And they began to question among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.
Ha bidoro ịjụrịta onwe ha onye ọ bụ nʼetiti ha ga-eme nke a.
24 And there arose also a contention among them, which of them was accounted to be greatest.
Ịrụ ụka malitere nʼetiti ha banyere onye nʼime ha ka a na-agụ na ọ dị ukwuu karịa ibe ya.
25 And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles have lordship over them; and they that have authority over them are called Benefactors.
Ma ọ sịrị ha, “Ndị eze ndị mba ọzọ na-eji aka ike na-achị ndị nọ nʼokpuru ha. Otu aka ahụkwa, a na-akpọ ndị na-achị achị enyi ndị mmadụ.
26 But ye [shall] not [be] so: but he that is the greater among you, let him become as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.
Ma unu onwe unu agaghị adị otu a. Kama onye kachasị ibe ya ịdị elu dịrị ka onye dịkarịsịrị nta. Ka onyeisi dịrị ka onye na-eje ozi.
27 For which is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am in the midst of you as he that serveth.
Onye dị elu karịa ibe ya? Ọ bụ onye nọdụrụ ala rie nri na tebul ka ọ bụ onye siri nri dozie ya na tebul? Ọ bụghị onye nọdụrụ ala rie nri na tebul? Ma adị m ka onye na-eje ozi nʼetiti unu.
28 But ye are they that have continued with me in my temptations;
Ọ bụ unu onwe unu bụ ndị nọnyere m nʼoge ọnwụnwa m niile.
29 and I appoint unto you a kingdom, even as my Father appointed unto me,
Ana m enye unu alaeze dị ka Nna m nyere m ya.
30 that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom; and ye shall sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Ka unu nwe ike isoro m rie ma ṅụọkwa nʼalaeze m. Sorokwa m nọdụ nʼocheeze na-ekpe ebo iri na abụọ nke Izrel ikpe.
31 Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have you, that he might sift you as wheat:
“Saimọn, Saimọn, lee ekwensu arịọla ike ịyọcha unu dị ka ọka wiiti.
32 but I made supplication for thee, that thy faith fail not; and do thou, when once thou hast turned again, establish thy brethren.
Ma ekpeelara m gị ekpere ka okwukwe gị ghara ịda. Mgbe ị kwudosiri ike, gbaakwa ụmụnna gị ume.”
33 And he said unto him, Lord, with thee I am ready to go both to prison and to death.
Ma ọ sịrị ya, “Onyenwe anyị, ejikeere m isoro gị gaa mkpọrọ, ma sorokwa gị nwụọ.”
34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, until thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.
Jisọs zara, “Agwa m gị Pita, tupu oke ọkụkụ akwaa akwa taa, ị ga-agọnarị m ugboro atọ, si na ị maghị onye m bụ.”
35 And he said unto them, When I sent you forth without purse, and wallet, and shoes, lacked ye anything? And they said, Nothing.
Ọ gwara ha, “Mgbe m zipụrụ unu na mbụ sị unu ewerekwala ego, maọbụ akpa maọbụ akpụkpọụkwụ, o nwere ihe kọrọ unu?” Ha sịrị, “O nweghị ihe kọrọ anyị.”
36 And he said unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet; and he that hath none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.
Ọ sịrị ha, “Ugbu a, ọ bụrụ na i nwere akpa ego, were ya, ma werekwa akpa ije. Ọ bụrụkwa na i nweghị mma agha ree uwe mgbokwasị gị zụtara onwe gị otu.
37 For I say unto you, that this which is written must be fulfilled in me, And he was reckoned with transgressors: for that which concerneth me hath fulfilment.
Nʼihi na agwa m unu, na a ga-emejupụta ihe ndị a e dere nʼakwụkwọ nsọ nʼime m, A gụkọtara ya na ndị na-emebi iwu. Nʼezie, ihe e dere banyere m eruwela mgbe ọ ga-emezu.”
38 And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.
Ha sịrị, “Onyenwe anyị, lee mma agha abụọ dị ebe a.” Ọ sịrị ha, “Nke ahụ ezuola.”
39 And he came out, and went, as his custom was, unto the mount of Olives; and the disciples also followed him.
Jisọs pụrụ gaa nʼUgwu Oliv dị ka ọ na-eme mgbe dum, ndị na-eso ụzọ ya sokwa ya gaa.
40 And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.
Mgbe o ruru nʼebe ahụ, ọ sịrị ha, “Kpeenụ ekpere ka unu ghara ịdaba nʼọnwụnwa.”
41 And he was parted from them about a stone’s cast; and he kneeled down and prayed,
Ọ hapụrụ ha gaa ihe ha ka nzọ ụkwụ ole na ole nọrọ nʼebe ahụ gbuo ikpere nʼala kpee ekpere, sị,
42 saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.
“Nna ọ bụrụ na ị chọrọ, nara m iko a, ma otu ọ dị, ọ bụghị ka e mee uche m, kama ka e mezuo uche gị.”
43 And there appeared unto him an angel from heaven, strengthening him.
Otu mmụọ ozi si nʼeluigwe bịakwutere ya, gbaakwa ya ume.
44 And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became as it were great drops of blood falling down upon the ground.
Site nʼoke ihe mgbu, o kpere ekpere kpesie ike, nke mere na ọsụsọ si ya nʼahụ na-adapụ nʼala dị ka ọkpụrụkpụ ọbara.
45 And when he rose up from his prayer, he came unto the disciples, and found them sleeping for sorrow,
Mgbe o kpechara ekpere bilie, ọ bịakwutere ndị na-eso ụzọ ya hụ ha ka ha na-arahụ ụra nʼihi ihe mwute nke obi.
46 and said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.
Ọ sịrị ha, “Gịnị mere unu ji na-arahụ ụra? Bilienụ kpee ekpere ka unu ghara ịdaba nʼọnwụnwa.”
47 While he yet spake, behold, a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them; and he drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.
Mgbe ọ ka kpụ okwu nʼọnụ, igwe mmadụ bịara, onye du ha bụ onye a na-akpọ Judas, bụ otu nʼime mmadụ iri na abụọ ahụ na-eso ụzọ ya. Ọ bịaruru Jisọs nso, isutu ya ọnụ.
48 But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?
Ma Jisọs sịrị ya, “Judas, ọ bụ site nʼisutu ọnụ ka i ji arara Nwa nke Mmadụ nye?”
49 And when they that were about him saw what would follow, they said, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?
Mgbe ndị nọ ya gburugburu hụrụ ihe gaje ime, ha sịrị, “Onyenwe anyị, ọ bụ anyị were mma agha gbuo?”
50 And a certain one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and struck off his right ear.
Otu nʼime ha ji mma gbuo ohu onyeisi nchụaja, gbupụ ntị aka nri ya.
51 But Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye [them] thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.
Ma Jisọs sịrị, “O zuola!” O metụkwara ntị nwoke ahụ aka gwọọ ya.
52 And Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and elders, that were come against him, Are ye come out, as against a robber, with swords and staves?
Mgbe ahụ, Jisọs sịrị ndịisi nchụaja, na ndị nlekọta nke ụlọnsọ ukwu na ndị okenye, “Gịnị mere unu ji chịrị mma agha na mkpọ bịa ijide m, dị ka a ga-asị na m bụ onye ohi o ji egbe ezu?
53 When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched not forth your hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
Mgbe mụ na unu na-anọ kwa ụbọchị nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, ma unu emetụghị m aka. Ma ugbu a bụ oge awa unu bụrụkwa mgbe ike ọchịchịrị na-achị achị.”
54 And they seized him, and led him [away], and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed afar off.
Mgbe ahụ ha jidere ya duru ya pụọ, gaa nʼụlọ onyeisi nchụaja. Pita sokwara ha nʼazụ kama ọ nọ nʼebe dị anya.
55 And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and had sat down together, Peter sat in the midst of them.
Mgbe ha kwanyere ọkụ nʼetiti mbara ezi obi ahụ, ma nọdụ ala gba ọkụ ahụ gburugburu, Pita sokwara ha nọdụ ala.
56 And a certain maid seeing him as he sat in the light [of the fire], and looking stedfastly upon him, said, This man also was with him.
Ka ọ na-anya ọkụ ahụ, otu nwaagbọghọ na-eje ozi hụrụ ya, o leruru ya anya nke ọma, sị, “Onye a na Jisọs nọkọrọ.”
57 But he denied, saying, Woman, I know him not.
Ma ọ gọrọ agọ sị, “Nwanyị, amaghị m onye ọ bụ.”
58 And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou also art [one] of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not.
Mgbe oge nta gasịrị, onye ọzọ hụkwara ya kwukwaa sị, “Gị onwe gị bụkwa otu onye nʼime ha.” Ma Pita kwuru sị, “Nwoke m, abụghị m.”
59 And after the space of about one hour another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this man also was with him; for he is a Galilæan.
Mgbe ihe dị ka otu awa gafere, onye ọzọ bịakwara kwusie okwu ike, “Nʼezie, nwoke a so ya nʼihi na ọ bụ onye Galili.”
60 But Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.
Pita sịrị, “Nwoke m, amaghị m ihe ị na-ekwu maka ya?” Dị ka ọ kpụ okwu ahụ nʼọnụ, oke ọkpa kwara akwa.
61 And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how that he said unto him, Before the cock crow this day thou shalt deny me thrice.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị tụgharịrị lee Pita anya. Pita chetakwara okwu Onyenwe anyị gwara ya nke bụ, “Tupu oke ọkpa akwa akwa taa, ị ga-agọnarị m ugboro atọ.”
62 And he went out, and wept bitterly.
Ma ọ pụrụ nʼezi gaa bee akwa na mwute.
63 And the men that held [Jesus] mocked him, and beat him.
Ndị ahụ na-eche ya nche bidoro na-akwa ya emo na-etikwa ya ihe.
64 And they blindfolded him, and asked him, saying, Prophesy: who is he that struck thee?
Ha jiri akwa kechie ya anya, sị ya, “Buo amụma, onye tiri gị ihe?”
65 And many other things spake they against him, reviling him.
Ha kwukwara ọtụtụ okwu ọjọọ na nke mkparị megide ya.
66 And as soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people was gathered together, both chief priests and scribes; and they led him away into their council, saying,
Mgbe chi bọrọ, nzukọ ndị okenye na ndịisi nchụaja, na ndị ozizi iwu zukọtara, a kpọtakwara Jisọs nʼihu ha.
67 If thou art the Christ, tell us. But he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:
Ha na-ekwu, “Ọ bụrụ na ị bụ Kraịst, gwa anyị.” Ọ sịrị ha, “Ọ bụrụ na m agwa unu, unu agaghị ekwe.
68 and if I ask [you], ye will not answer.
Ọ bụrụkwa na m ajụọ unu ajụjụ, unu agaghị aza m.
69 But from henceforth shall the Son of man be seated at the right hand of the power of God.
Ma site ugbu a gawa, Nwa nke Mmadụ ga-anọdụ ala nʼaka nri nke ike Chineke.”
70 And they all said, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.
Ha niile sịrị, “Gị onwe gị, ị bụ Ọkpara Chineke?” Ọ sịrị ha, “Unu kwuru na Abụ m.”
71 And they said, What further need have we of witness? for we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.
Mgbe ahụ ha sịrị, “Gịnị mere anyị ji na-achọ onye akaebe ọzọ? Anyị ejirila ntị anyị nụrụ ya site nʼọnụ ya.”
