< John 19 >

1 Then Pilate therefore took Jesus and scourged [him].
Su, Pilatu katakuriti Yesu wamtoli, wamsyatangi ntomondu.
2 And the soldiers having plaited a crown of thorns put it on his head, and put a purple robe on him,
Wanjagira wapota lijenjeri lya misontu na wamtula mumutuwi, wamvarisiya na lihabiti lya shifalumi.
3 and came to him and said, Hail, king of the Jews! and gave him blows on the face.
Wamwizira na kutakula, “Mwika, Mtuwa gwa Wayawudi!” Wamgendera na kumwakula makofi.
4 And Pilate went out again and says to them, Lo, I bring him out to you, that ye may know that I find in him no fault whatever.
Pilatu kalawa kayi kunja, kawagambira, “Mlori, numjega kunja kwamwenga, mpati kuvimana handa neni mona ndiri shidoda shoseri kwakuwi.”
5 (Jesus therefore went forth without, wearing the crown of thorn, and the purple robe.) And he says to them, Behold the man!
Su, Yesu kalawa kunja pakavala lijenjeri lya misontu na lihabiti lya shifalumi. Pilatu kawagambira, “Mlori! Muntu mweni ndo ayu.”
6 When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him they cried out saying, Crucify, crucify [him]. Pilate says to them, Take him ye and crucify [him], for I find no fault in him.
Watambika Wakulu na wanjagila pawamwoniti wabota, “Gumpingiki! Gumpingiki!” Pilatu kawagambira, “Su mumutoli maweni mkampingiki, toziya neni mona ndiri vidoda vyoseri kwakuwi.”
7 The Jews answered him, We have a law, and according to [our] law he ought to die, because he made himself Son of God.
Wayawudi wamwankula, “Twenga twanaga malagaliru na kulawirana na malagaliru aga, ndo mpaka kahowi, toziya kalitakuziya mweni ka Mwana gwa Mlungu.”
8 When Pilate therefore heard this word, he was the rather afraid,
Pilatu pakapikaniriti visoweru avi katiriti nentu.
9 and went into the praetorium again and says to Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.
Kingira kayi mngati mwa ikulu, kamkosiya Yesu, “Gulawa koshi gwenga?” Kumbiti Yesu kamwankula ndiri shintu.
10 Pilate therefore says to him, Speakest thou not to me? Dost thou not know that I have authority to release thee and have authority to crucify thee?
Pilatu kamgambira, “Gutakula ndiri naneni? Guliholi, guvimana ndiri handa nanawu uwezu wa kukuvugulira na uwezu wa kukupingika?”
11 Jesus answered, Thou hadst no authority whatever against me if it were not given to thee from above. On this account he that has delivered me up to thee has [the] greater sin.
Yesu kamwankula, “Meguweri na uwezu woseri kwa neni hera toziya yakakupanani ndo Mlungu. Su muntu yakanjegiti kwa gwenga kana vidoda vikulu nentu.”
12 From this time Pilate sought to release him; but the Jews cried out saying, If thou releasest this [man], thou art not a friend to Caesar. Every one making himself a king speaks against Caesar.
Pilatu pakapikiniriti aga, kaweriti kakusakula ntambu ya kumlekiziya Yesu, kumbiti lipinga lya Wayawudi liwuyiriti kushowangana, “Pagumlekeziya muntu ayu, gwenga gwa ganja ndiri gwakuwi Kaisari Mfalumi mkulu wa Warumi, kila muntu yakalitenda kuwera Mfalumi kamlema Kaisari Mfalumi mkulu wa Warumi!”
13 Pilate therefore, having heard these words, led Jesus out and sat down upon [the] judgment-seat, at a place called Pavement, but in Hebrew Gabbatha;
Su, Pilatu pakapikaniriti visoweru avi kamjega Yesu kunja, kalivaga pashiti sha kutoza, pahala wapashema, “Sakafu ya libuwi.” Kwa Shiebraniya, “Gabata.”
14 (now it was [the] preparation of the passover; it was about the sixth hour; ) and he says to the Jews, Behold your king!
Iweriti ipata saa sita paliwala, lishaka lya kutandira Pasaka. Pilatu kawagambira Wayawudi, “Mlori, mfalumi gwenu!”
15 But they cried out, Take [him] away, take [him] away, crucify him. Pilate says to them, Shall I crucify your king? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.
Womberi washowangana, “Gumlagi! Gumlagi! Mulupingika!” Pilatu kawakosiya, “Hashi, numupingiki mfalumi gwenu?” Watambika wakulu wamwankula, “Twenga twahera Mfalumi ira Kaisari Mfalumi mkulu gwa Warumi!”
16 Then therefore he delivered him up to them, that he might be crucified; and they took Jesus and led him away.
Su, panu Pilatu kamlekiziya Yesu mumawoku mwawu su wampingiki. Su, wamtola Yesu.
17 And he went out, bearing his cross, to the place called [place] of a skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha;
Nayomberi kalawa kiwiti kalitola lupingika lwakuwi kugenda pahala pawashemapu “Shipalakasa sha Mtuwi.” Kwa Shiebraniya Goligota.
18 where they crucified him, and with him two others, [one] on this side, and [one] on that, and Jesus in the middle.
Wampingika aku na wantu wawili wamonga wawapingika, yumu uwega wakuwi wa kumliwu na mmonga uwega wakuwi wa kumshigi.
19 And Pilate wrote a title also and put it on the cross. But there was written: Jesus the Nazaraean, the King of the Jews.
Pilatu kalembiti malembu kagatula pampindi pa lupingika. Iweriti ilembwa hangu, “Yesu gwa Nazareti, Mfalumi gwa Wayawudi.”
20 This title therefore many of the Jews read, for the place of the city where Jesus was crucified was near; and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, Latin.
Wayawudi wavuwa wagasomiti malembu aga, mana pahala panu pawampingikiti Yesu paweriti pakwegera na lushi. Kayi malembu aga gaweriti galembwa kwa Shiebraniya na Shilatini na Shigiriki.
21 The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, Do not write, The king of the Jews, but that he said, I am king of the Jews.
Watambika Wakulu wa Shiyawudi wamgambira Pilatu, “Nagulemba, ‘Mfalumi gwa Wayawudi,’ Kumbiti gulembi yomberi katakuliti, Neni ndo Mfalumi gwa Wayawudi.”
22 Pilate answered, What I have written, I have written.
Pilatu kankula, “Ganembiti, nemba!”
23 The soldiers therefore, when they had crucified Jesus, took his clothes, and made four parts, to each soldier a part, and the body-coat; but the body-coat was seamless, woven through the whole from the top.
Wanjagira pawamaliriti kumpinjika Yesu, wazitoliti nguwu zakuwi, wagawana vifungu msheshi, shifungu shimu kwa kila mjagira. Watoliti viraa na rihabiti lyakuwi, rihabiti ali liweriti rifumwa kwa shipandi shimu hera, pota na mshonu.
24 They said therefore to one another, Let us not rend it, but let us cast lots for it, whose it shall be; that the scripture might be fulfilled which says, They parted my garments among themselves, and on my vesture they cast lots. The soldiers therefore did these things.
Wanjagira awa waligambiziyana, “Hapeni kuyikashula, ira wazigalambuziya simbi ziweri zya gaa?” Shitwatila ashi shitendikiti su gatimiyi Malembu Mananagala yagatakula, “Wagawaniti nguwu womberi kwa womberi, Na nguwu zaneni wazigalambuziya simbi.” Su, ntambu yawatenditi wanjagila walii.
25 And by the cross of Jesus stood his mother, and the sister of his mother, Mary the [wife] of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala.
Pakwegera na lupingika lwa Yesu, paweriti wagoloka mawu gwakuwi na mlongu gwa mawu gwakuwi, Mariya Mdala gwa Kileopa na Mariya Magidalena.
26 Jesus therefore, seeing his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, says to his mother, Woman, behold thy son.
Yesu pakamwoniti mawu gwakuwi na pakwegera nayomberi kagoloka uliya mfundwa yakamfiriti, kamgambira mawu gwakuwi, “Mawu! Gulori, ayu ndo mwanagwaku.”
27 Then he says unto the disciple, Behold thy mother. And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.
Shakapanu kamgambira mfundwa ulii, gulori, “Ayu ndomweni mawu gwaku.” Na kwanjira shipindi shilii mfundwa ayu kamtoliti katami ukaya kwakuwi.
28 After this, Jesus, knowing that all things were now finished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, says, I thirst.
Yesu kavimaniti handa goseri gaweriti gatimia na su Malembu Mananagala gapati kutimiya, katakula, “Mona kuyumuluwa.”
29 There was a vessel therefore there full of vinegar, and having filled a sponge with vinegar, and putting hyssop round it, they put it up to his mouth.
Panu paweriti na libakuli limema siki. Su, watota sifongu pakati pa siki ayi, wayitula pampindi pa ufitu wa hisopu wamlandisiya.
30 When therefore Jesus had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished; and having bowed his head, he delivered up his spirit.
Yesu pakalanditi siki, katakula “Gapera!” Shakapanu kango'ng'onala mtuwi gwakuwi, kahowa.
31 The Jews therefore, that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath, for it was [the] preparation, (for the day of that sabbath was a great [day], ) demanded of Pilate that their legs might be broken and they taken away.
Shakapanu Wakulu wa Wayawudi wamkosiya Pilatu wamegi magulu gawu wawapingikiti na kusulusiya nshimba kulawa mlupingika, wakosiyiti hangu toziya iweriti Ijumaa lishaka lya matandiru ga Pasaka na wafiriti ndiri nshimba kusigala mlupingika lishaka lya Kwoyera, paliyanja lishaka lya kwoyera toziya ya lishaka likulu.
32 The soldiers therefore came and broke the legs of the first and of the other that had been crucified with him;
Su, wanjagila wagenditi, wagamega magulu ga uliya gwa kwanja na uliya gwa pili ndomweni kaweriti kapingikwa pamuhera na Yesu.
33 but coming to Jesus, when they saw that he was already dead they did not break his legs,
Kumbiti pawamwiziriti Yesu, wawoniti kuwera kahowiti kala na hangu wammega ndiri magulu.
34 but one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately there came out blood and water.
Kumbiti mjagira yumu kamtobuliti Mluwavu kwa mgoha na palaa paliya mwazi na mashi galawa.
35 And he who saw it bears witness, and his witness is true, and he knows that he says true that ye also may believe.
Nayomberi yakawoniti shitwatira ashi kalaviya visoweru vyakuwi su mwenga mpati kujimira. Na aga yagapitawulitwi ndo nakaka, kayi yomberi kavimana handa kankutakula nakaka.
36 For these things took place that the scripture might be fulfilled, Not a bone of him shall be broken.
Shitwatila ashi shashitenditwi su Malembu Mananagala gatimiyi, “Kwahera ata shifupa shakuwi shimu hashimegwi.”
37 And again another scripture says, They shall look on him whom they pierced.
Ilembwa kayi Mumalembu Mananagala gatakula, “Hawamloli uliya yawamtobuliti.”
38 And after these things Joseph of Arimathaea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly through fear of the Jews, demanded of Pilate that he might take the body of Jesus: and Pilate allowed it. He came therefore and took away the body of Jesus.
Pa aga, Yosefu, mwenikaya gwa Arimatayu, kamluwa Pilatu kayitoli nshimba ya Yesu. Yosefu kaweriti mfundwa gwa Yesu, kumbiti kwa kubada, toziya kawatiriti wakulu wa Wayawudi. Su, Pilatu kajimira. Hangu Yosefu kagenditi, kayitola nshimba ya Yesu.
39 And Nicodemus also, who at first came to Jesus by night, came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds [weight].
Nikodemu yomberi kaweriti kamgendera Yesu pashiru, wagenditi pamuhera na Yosefu kiza pakajega muhanganyiku gwa manimani na ubani wa kilu milongu mitatu.
40 They took therefore the body of Jesus and bound it up in linen with the spices, as it is the custom with the Jews to prepare for burial.
Su, watola nshimba ya Yesu. Waitawa sanda pamuhera na uturi kulinganira na shitiba sha Wayawudi shakusira.
41 But there was in the place where he had been crucified a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had ever been laid.
Pahala panu pawampingikiti Yesu paweriti na shiwunga na pakati pashiwunga ashi paweriti na lipumba lyampanga lyaliweriti lyasyayi, wamsira ndiri muntu yoseri mnumba mwakuwi.
42 There therefore, on account of the preparation of the Jews, because the tomb was near, they laid Jesus.
Toziya ya lihengu lya Wayawudi lya matandiru ga Lishaka lya Kwoyera, toziya lipumba lya mpanga ali liweriti pakwegera, wagatula mauti ga Yesu mlaa.
