< John 19 >
1 Therefore, Pilate then took Jesus into custody and scourged him.
Bongo Pilato apesaki mitindo ete bakamata Yesu, mpe abetisaki Ye fimbu.
2 And the soldiers, plaiting a crown of thorns, imposed it on his head. And they put a purple garment around him.
Basoda basalaki ekoti na banzube mpe balatisaki Ye yango na moto; balatisaki Ye lisusu nzambala ya motane.
3 And they were approaching him and saying, “Hail, king of the Jews!” And they struck him repeatedly.
Bazalaki koya koloba na Ye: « Mbote, mokonzi ya Bayuda! » Mpe babandaki kobeta Ye bambata.
4 Then Pilate went outside again, and he said to them: “Behold, I am bringing him out to you, so that you may realize that I find no case against him.”
Pilato abimaki lisusu mpe alobaki na bango: — Botala! Nayei na Ye na libanda epai na bino mpo boyeba ete ngai nazwi Ye na mabe moko te.
5 (Then Jesus went out, bearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment.) And he said to them, “Behold the man.”
Boye, Yesu abimaki alata ekoti ya nzube mpe nzambala ya motane. Pilato alobaki na bango: — Moto yango, ye oyo!
6 Therefore, when the high priests and the attendants had seen him, they cried out, saying: “Crucify him! Crucify him!” Pilate said to them: “Take him yourselves and crucify him. For I find no case against him.”
Tango kaka bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe bakengeli bamonaki Yesu, babandaki koganga: — Baka ye na ekulusu! Baka ye na ekulusu! Kasi Pilato azongisaki: — Bino moko, bokamata ye mpe bobaka ye na ekulusu; ngai nazwi ye na mabe ata moko te.
7 The Jews answered him, “We have a law, and according to the law, he ought to die, for he has made himself the Son of God.”
Bayuda balobaki na molende nyonso: — Tozali na Mobeko; mpe kolanda Mobeko na biso, asengeli kokufa, pamba te amikomisi Mwana na Nzambe.
8 Therefore, when Pilate had heard this word, he was more fearful.
Tango Pilato ayokaki maloba wana, abangaki lisusu makasi.
9 And he entered into the praetorium again. And he said to Jesus. “Where are you from?” But Jesus gave him no response.
Azongaki lisusu kati na ndako ya moyangeli mpe alobaki na Yesu: — Ozali moto ya mboka nini? Kasi Yesu apesaki ye eyano te.
10 Therefore, Pilate said to him: “Will you not speak to me? Do you not know that I have authority to crucify you, and I have authority to release you?”
Pilato alobaki na Ye: — Boni, oboyi kozongisela ngai eyano? Oyebi te ete ngai nazali na makoki ya kobaka yo na ekulusu mpe ya kotika yo?
11 Jesus responded, “You would not have any authority over me, unless it were given to you from above. For this reason, he who has handed me over to you has the greater sin.”
Yesu alobaki na ye: — Okokaki kozala na bokonzi moko te likolo na Ngai soki epesamelaki yo te wuta na likolo. Yango wana, moto oyo akabi Ngai na maboko na yo asali lisumu monene koleka.
12 And from then on, Pilate was seeking to release him. But the Jews were crying out, saying: “If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar. For anyone who makes himself a king contradicts Caesar.”
Kobanda kaka na ngonga wana, Pilato akomaki koluka nzela ya kotika Yesu; kasi Bayuda babandaki lisusu koganga: — Soki otiki ye, wana ozali na yo moninga ya Sezare te! Pamba te moto nyonso oyo amikomisi mokonzi azali monguna ya Sezare.
13 Now when Pilate had heard these words, he brought Jesus outside, and he sat down in the seat of judgment, in a place which is called the Pavement, but in Hebrew, it is called the Elevation.
Tango Pilato ayokaki bongo, amemaki Yesu na libanda mpe avandaki na esambiselo, na esika oyo babengaka, na lokota ya Arami, « Gabata. »
14 Now it was the preparation day of the Passover, about the sixth hour. And he said to the Jews, “Behold your king.”
Ezalaki mokolo ya suka mpo na kokoma na mokolo ya Pasika, na ngonga ya midi. Pilato alobaki na Bayuda: — Botala mokonzi na bino!
15 But they were crying out: “Take him away! Take him away! Crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Shall I crucify your king?” The high priests responded, “We have no king except Caesar.”
Kasi babandaki koganga: — Boma ye! Boma ye! Baka ye na ekulusu! Pilato alobaki na bango lisusu: — Nasengeli penza kobaka mokonzi na bino na ekulusu? Bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe bazongisaki: — Tozali kaka na Sezare lokola mokonzi, mokonzi mosusu azali te!
16 Therefore, he then handed him over to them to be crucified. And they took Jesus and led him away.
Pilato akabaki Yesu na maboko na bango mpo ete babaka Ye na ekulusu. Boye, bakamataki Yesu mpe bakendeki na Ye.
17 And carrying his own cross, he went forth to the place which is called Calvary, but in Hebrew it is called the Place of the Skull.
Yesu amemaki, Ye moko, ekulusu na Ye; abimaki na engumba mpe akendeki na esika oyo babengaka, na lokota ya Arami, « Gologota. »
18 There they crucified him, and with him two others, one on each side, with Jesus in the middle.
Ezalaki na esika yango nde babakaki Yesu na ekulusu, elongo na bato mosusu mibale: moko, na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali ya Yesu; mosusu, na ngambo ya loboko na Ye ya mwasi.
19 Then Pilate also wrote a title, and he set it above the cross. And it was written: Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Jews.
Pilato akomaki na libaya, makomi oyo atiaki na ekulusu; akomaki: Yesu, moto ya Nazareti, Mokonzi ya Bayuda.
20 Therefore, many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was close to the city. And it was written in Hebrew, in Greek, and in Latin.
Lokola esika oyo babakaki Yesu na ekulusu ezalaki pene ya engumba, Bayuda ebele batangaki makomi yango, pamba te bakomaki yango na lokota ya Ebre, lokota ya latino mpe lokota ya Greki.
21 Then the high priests of the Jews said to Pilate: Do not write, ‘King of the Jews,’ but that he said, ‘I am King of the Jews.’
Bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe balobaki na Pilato: — Osengelaki te kokoma: « Mokonzi ya Bayuda; » osengelaki nde kokoma: « Moto oyo alobaki: ‹ Nazali mokonzi ya Bayuda. › »
22 Pilate responded, “What I have written, I have written.”
Kasi Pilato azongisaki: — Makambo oyo nakomi ekotikala kaka ndenge wana.
23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified him, took his garments, and they made four parts, one part to each soldier, and the tunic. But the tunic was seamless, woven from above throughout the whole.
Sima na basoda kobaka Yesu na ekulusu, bakamataki bilamba na Ye mpe bakabolaki yango na biteni minei: soda moko na moko azwaki eteni moko. Bakamataki mpe nzambala na Ye, oyo ezalaki ya kotongama te, kasi ezalaki kaka elamba moko, kobanda na likolo kino na se.
24 Then they said to one another, “Let us not cut it, but instead let us cast lots over it, to see whose it will be.” This was so that the Scripture would be fulfilled, saying: “They have distributed my garments among themselves, and for my vesture they have cast lots.” And indeed, the soldiers did these things.
Basoda balobanaki bango na bango: — Topasola yango te, kasi tobeta zeke mpo na koyeba soki nani akozwa yango. Esalemaki bongo mpo ete Makomi oyo ekokisama: « Bakabolaki bilamba na ngai kati na bango mpe babetaki zeke mpo na nzambala na ngai. » Ezali makambo wana nde basoda basalaki.
25 And standing beside the cross of Jesus were his mother, and his mother’s sister, and Mary of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.
Tala bato oyo batelemaki pene ya ekulusu ya Yesu: Mama na Ye, ndeko mwasi ya mama na Ye, Mari oyo azalaki mwasi ya Klopasi, mpe Mari ya mboka Magidala.
26 Therefore, when Jesus had seen his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing near, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold your son.”
Tango Yesu amonaki ete moyekoli oyo azalaki kolinga atelemi pembeni ya mama na Ye, alobaki na mama na Ye: — Mwasi, tala mwana na yo!
27 Next, he said to the disciple, “Behold your mother.” And from that hour, the disciple accepted her as his own.
Mpe alobaki na moyekoli yango: — Tala mama na yo! Boye, kobanda na tango wana, moyekoli yango azwaki mama ya Yesu mpo ete akoma kovanda na ndako na ye.
28 After this, Jesus knew that all had been accomplished, so in order that the Scripture might be completed, he said, “I thirst.”
Sima na yango, wana Yesu asosolaki ete makambo nyonso esili kosalema, abimisaki maloba oyo mpo ete Makomi ekokisama: — Nayoki posa ya mayi.
29 And there was a container placed there, full of vinegar. Then, placing a sponge full of vinegar around hyssop, they brought it to his mouth.
Lokola ezalaki na mbeki moko etonda na vino ya ngayi pembeni ya esika yango, batiaki, na songe ya nzete moko ya izope, eponze moko epola na vino yango ya ngayi mpe batombolaki yango kino na monoko ya Yesu.
30 Then Jesus, when he had received the vinegar, said: “It is consummated.” And bowing down his head, he surrendered his spirit.
Tango kaka Yesu amelaki vino yango ya ngayi, alobaki: — Nyonso ekokisami. Bongo, akitisaki moto mpe azongisaki molimo na Ye.
31 Then the Jews, because it was the preparation day, so that the bodies would not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a great day), they petitioned Pilate in order that their legs might be broken, and they might be taken away.
Lokola ezalaki mokolo ya komilengela mpo na Saba, mpe lokola Saba yango ezalaki na tina makasi, Bayuda balingaki te ete bibembe etikala na ba-ekulusu na tango ya Saba. Boye, bakendeki kosenga epai ya Pilato ete apesa mitindo ya kobuka makolo ya bibembe oyo ezalaki na likolo ya ba-ekulusu mpe ya kolongola banzoto na bango.
32 Therefore, the soldiers approached, and, indeed, they broke the legs of the first one, and of the other who was crucified with him.
Basoda bayaki mpe babukaki makolo ya mibali nyonso mibale oyo babakaki na ba-ekulusu elongo na Yesu; babandaki na moko, bongo balekaki na oyo mosusu.
33 But after they had approached Jesus, when they saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.
Wana ekomaki ngala ya makolo ya Yesu, bamonaki ete Yesu amikufelaki; mpe babukaki lisusu te makolo na Ye.
34 Instead, one of the soldiers opened his side with a lance, and immediately there went out blood and water.
Moko kati na basoda atobolaki mopanzi ya Yesu na nzela ya likonga; mpe mbala moko, makila mpe mayi ebimaki na mopanzi yango.
35 And he who saw this has offered testimony, and his testimony is true. And he knows that he speaks the truth, so that you also may believe.
Moto oyo azali kopesa litatoli na tina na makambo oyo amonaki yango kosalema na miso na ye, mpe litatoli na ye ezali ya solo; ayebi penza ete azali koloba solo mpo ete bino mpe bondima.
36 For these things happened so that the Scripture would be fulfilled: “You shall not break a bone of him.”
Makambo nyonso wana esalemaki bongo mpo ete Makomi oyo ekokisama: « Bakobuka ata mokuwa na Ye moko te. »
37 And again, another Scripture says: “They shall look upon him, whom they have pierced.”
Eteni mosusu ya Makomi elobi: « Bakotala Ye oyo batobolaki mopanzi. »
38 Then, after these things, Joseph from Arimathea, (because he was a disciple of Jesus, but a secret one for fear of the Jews) petitioned Pilate so that he might take away the body of Jesus. And Pilate gave permission. Therefore, he went and took away the body of Jesus.
Sima na makambo wana, Jozefi, moto ya mboka Arimate, oyo azalaki moyekoli ya Yesu, kasi na nkuku mpo ete azalaki kobanga Bayuda, asengaki epai ya Pilato ndingisa ya kokitisa nzoto ya Yesu longwa na ekulusu. Pilato apesaki ye ndingisa yango, mpe Jozefi akendeki mpe akitisaki nzoto ya Yesu.
39 Now Nicodemus also arrived, (who had gone to Jesus at first by night) bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloe, weighing about seventy pounds.
Nikodemi oyo, na ebandeli, akendeki kotala Yesu na butu, ye mpe ayaki; amemaki bakilo pene tuku misato ya mafuta ya mire basangisa na aloe.
40 Therefore, they took the body of Jesus, and they bound it with linen cloths and the aromatic spices, just as it is the manner of the Jews to bury.
Bango mibale bakamataki nzoto ya Yesu mpe balingaki yango na maputa ya lino oyo, kati na yango, batiaki mafuta ya solo kitoko, ndenge ezalaki momesano ya Bayuda mpo na kokunda bibembe.
41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden there was a new tomb, in which no one had yet been laid.
Pene ya esika oyo babakaki Yesu na ekulusu, ezalaki na elanga moko oyo, kati na yango, ezalaki na kunda moko ya sika epai wapi batikalaki nanu kokunda ata moto moko te.
42 Therefore, because of the preparation day of the Jews, since the tomb was nearby, they placed Jesus there.
Lokola, mpo na Bayuda, ezalaki mokolo ya komilengela mpo na Saba, batiaki Yesu kati na kunda yango, pamba te ezalaki pene.
