Matthew 26
1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended all these words, he said to his disciples:
Zvakaitika Jesu apedza mashoko aya ese, akati kuvadzidzi vake:
2 You know that after two days shall be the pasch, and the son of man shall be delivered up to be crucified:
Munoziva kuti mushure memazuva maviri ichava pasika, uye Mwanakomana wemunhu achatengeswa kuti arovererwe pamuchinjikwa.
3 Then were gathered together the chief priests and ancients of the people into the court of the high priest, who was called Caiphas:
Ipapo kwakaungana vapristi vakuru nevanyori nevakuru vevanhu muchivanze chemupristi mukuru wainzi Kayafasi.
4 And they consulted together, that by subtilty they might apprehend Jesus, and put him to death.
Vakarangana kuti vabate Jesu nemano, vagomuuraya.
5 But they said: Not on the festival day, lest perhaps there should be a tumult among the people.
Asi vakati: Kwete pamutambo, kuti kurege kuva nebongozozo pakati pevanhu.
6 And when Jesus was in Bethania, in the house of Simon the leper,
Zvino Jesu wakati ari paBhetaniya mumba maSimoni wemaperembudzi,
7 There came to him a woman having an alabaster box of precious ointment, and poured it on his head as he was at table.
kwakasvika kwaari mukadzi nechinu chearibhasiteri chechizoro chinokosha zvikuru, akadururira mumusoro wake agere pakudya.
8 And the disciples seeing it, had indignation, saying: To what purpose is this waste?
Asi vadzidzi vake vakati vachiona, vakatsamwa vachiti: Kutambisa uku ndokwei?
9 For this might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
Nokuti chizoro ichi chingadai chatengeswa nemari zhinji, ikapiwa varombo.
10 And Jesus knowing it, said to them: Why do you trouble this woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.
Asi Jesu aziva wakati kwavari: Munotambudzirei mukadzi? Nokuti aita basa rakanaka kwandiri.
11 For the poor you have always with you: but me you have not always.
Nokuti varombo munavo nguva dzese, asi ini hamuneni nguva dzese.
12 For she in pouring this ointment upon my body, hath done it for my burial.
Nokuti pakundidira chizoro ichi pamuviri wangu, waitira kuvigwa kwangu.
13 Amen I say to you, wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, that also which she hath done, shall be told for a memory of her.
Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Kwese kunozoparidzirwa evhangeri iyi panyika yese, izvi mukadzi zvaaitawo zvicharehwa, chive chirangaridzo chake.
14 Then went one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, to the chief priests,
Ipapo umwe wevanegumi nevaviri, wainzi Judhasi Isikariyoti, wakaenda kuvapristi vakuru,
15 And said to them: What will you give me, and I will deliver him unto you? But they appointed him thirty pieces of silver.
akati: Munoda kundipei, ini ndigomukumikidza kwamuri? Vakamutemera masirivheri makumi matatu.
16 And from thenceforth he sought opportunity to betray him.
Uye kubva panguva iyo akatsvaka mukana wakafanira kuti amukumikidze.
17 And on the first day of the Azymes, the disciples came to Jesus, saying: Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the pasch?
Nerekutanga rezvingwa zvisina mbiriso vadzidzi vakauya kuna Jesu vachiti kwaari: Ndekupi kwamunoda kuti tikugadzirirei kudya pasika?
18 But Jesus said: Go ye into the city to a certain man, and say to him: the master saith, My time is near at hand, with thee I make the pasch with my disciples.
Akati: Endai muguta kune umwe munhu, muti kwaari: Mudzidzisi anoti: Nguva yangu yava pedo; ndichaita pasika kwauri nevadzidzi vangu.
19 And the disciples did as Jesus appointed to them, and they prepared the pasch.
Vadzidzi vakaita Jesu sezvaakavaraira; vakagadzirira pasika.
20 But when it was evening, he sat down with his twelve disciples.
Zvino ava madekwani akagara pakudya nevanegumi nevaviri.
21 And whilst they were eating, he said: Amen I say to you, that one of you is about to betray me.
Vakati vachidya akati: Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Umwe wenyu achanditengesa.
22 And they being very much troubled, began every one to say: Is it I, Lord?
Zvino vakashungurudzika zvikuru, vakatanga umwe neumwe wavo kuti kwaari: Ishe, zvirokwazvo handisi ini, ndizvo here?
23 But he answering, said: He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, he shall betray me.
Ndokupindura akati: Anoseva ruoko neni mundiro ndiye achanditengesa.
24 The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man shall be betrayed: it were better for him, if that man had not been born.
Mwanakomana wemunhu anoenda hake sezvazvakanyorwa pamusoro pake; asi ane nhamo munhu uyo Mwanakomana wemunhu waanotengeswa naye! Zvaiva nani kwaari kana munhu uyo aiva asina kuberekwa.
25 And Judas that betrayed him, answering, said: Is it I, Rabbi? He saith to him: Thou hast said it.
Judhasi uyo wakamutengesa ndokupindura akati: Rabhi, zvirokwazvo handisi ini, ndizvo here? Akati kwaari: Wataura iwe.
26 And whilst they were at supper, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke: and gave to his disciples, and said: Take ye, and eat. This is my body.
Zvino vakati vachidya, Jesu akatora chingwa akaropafadza, akamedura ndokupa vadzidzi akati: Torai, idyai, ichi ndiwo muviri wangu.
27 And taking the chalice, he gave thanks, and gave to them, saying: Drink ye all of this.
Akatora mukombe, akavonga, akapa kwavari, achiti: Inwai mese pauri.
28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which shall be shed for many unto remission of sins.
Nokuti iri iropa rangu, iro resungano itsva, rinoteurirwa vazhinji rekukanganwirwa kwezvivi.
29 And I say to you, I will not drink from henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I shall drink it with you new in the kingdom of my Father.
Asi ndinoti kwamuri: Kubva zvino handichatongonwi zvechibereko ichi chemuzambiringa, kusvikira zuva iro randichazonwa naro nemwi chava chitsva muushe hwaBaba vangu.
30 And a hymn being said, they went out unto mount Olivet.
Zvino vakati vaimba rwiyo vakabuda vakaenda kugomo reMiorivhi.
31 Then Jesus said to them: All you shall be scandalized in me this night. For it is written: I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be dispersed.
Ipapo Jesu wakati kwavari: Imwi mese muchagumburwa nekuda kwangu usiku huno; nokuti kwakanyorwa kuchinzi: Ndicharova mufudzi, uye makwai eboka achaparadzirwa.
32 But after I shall be risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.
Asi shure kwekunge ndamutswa, ndichakutungamirirai kuGarirea.
33 And Peter answering, said to him: Although all shall be scandalized in thee, I will never be scandalized.
Asi Petro wakapindura akati kwaari: Kunyange vese vakagumburwa nekuda kwenyu, ini handingatongogumburwi.
34 Jesus said to him: Amen I say to thee, that in this night before the cock crow, thou wilt deny me thrice.
Jesu akati kwaari: Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwauri: Muusiku huno, jongwe risati rarira, uchandiramba katatu.
35 Peter saith to him: Yea, though I should die with thee, I will not deny thee. And in like manner said all the disciples.
Petro akati kwaari: Kunyange zvakandifanira kufa nemwi, handingatongokurambiyi. Vadzidziwo vese vakadaro.
36 Then Jesus came with them into a country place which is called Gethsemani; and he said to his disciples: Sit you here, till I go yonder and pray.
Zvino Jesu wakasvika navo panzvimbo inonzi Getsemani, akati kuvadzidzi: Garai pano ndichamboenda ndinonyengetera uko.
37 And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to grow sorrowful and to be sad.
Akatora pamwe naye Petro nevanakomana vaviri vaZebhedhi, akatanga kusuruvara nekushungurudzika.
38 Then he saith to them: My soul is sorrowful even unto death: stay you here, and watch with me.
Ipapo akati kwavari: Mweya wangu unosuruvara kwazvo kusvikira parufu; garai pano murinde neni.
39 And going a little further, he fell upon his face, praying, and saying: My Father, if it be possible, let this chalice pass from me. Nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.
Akaenda mberi zvishoma, akawa nechiso chake, akanyengetera achiti: Baba vangu, kana zvichibvira, mukombe uyu ngaupfuure kwandiri. Asi kusava sezvandinoda ini asi sezvamunoda imwi.
40 And he cometh to his disciples, and findeth them asleep, and he saith to Peter: What? Could you not watch one hour with me?
Akauya kuvadzidzi, akavawana varere, akati kuna Petro: Saka hamuna kugona kurinda neni awa rimwe here?
41 Watch ye, and pray that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh weak.
Rindai munyengetere, kuti musapinda mumuedzo; mweya unoda zvirokwazvo, asi nyama ine utera.
42 Again the second time, he went and prayed, saying: My Father, if this chalice may not pass away, but I must drink it, thy will be done.
Akaendazve rwechipiri akanyengetera, achiti: Baba vangu, kana mukombe uyu usingagoni kupfuura kubva kwandiri, kunze kwekuti ndaunwa, kuda kwenyu ngakuitwe.
43 And he cometh again and findeth them sleeping: for their eyes were heavy.
Akauya, akavawana vavatazve, nokuti meso avo akange orema.
44 And leaving them, he went again: and he prayed the third time, saying the selfsame word.
Akavasiya, akaendazve akanyengetera rwechitatu, achitaura mashoko iwawo.
45 Then he cometh to his disciples, and saith to them: Sleep ye now and take your rest; behold the hour is at hand, and the Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of sinners.
Ndokuuya kuvadzidzi vake ndokuti kwavari: Chirambai murere muzorore; tarirai, awa raswedera, Mwanakomana wemunhu wotengeswa mumaoko evatadzi.
46 Rise, let us go: behold he is at hand that will betray me.
Simukai, ngatiende, tarirai, wonditengesa wava pedo.
47 As he yet spoke, behold Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and the ancients of the people.
Zvino achataura, tarira, Judhasi umwe wevanegumi nevaviri wakasvika, chaunga chikuru chinaye chine minondo netsvimbo chichibva kuvapristi vakuru nevakuru vevanhu.
48 And he that betrayed him, gave them a sign, saying: Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he, hold him fast.
Zvino iye wakamutengesa wakavapa chiratidzo achiti: Uyo wandichatsvoda, ndiye, mumubate.
49 And forthwith coming to Jesus, he said: Hail, Rabbi. And he kissed him.
Uye pakarepo akasvika kuna Jesu, akati: Hekanhi, Rabhi! Akamutsvoda.
50 And Jesus said to him: Friend, whereto art thou come? Then they came up, and laid hands on Jesus, and held him.
Jesu akati kwaari: Shamwari, wavingei? Ipapo vakaswedera vakaisa maoko pana Jesu, vakamubata.
51 And behold one of them that were with Jesus, stretching forth his hand, drew out his sword: and striking the servant of the high priest, cut off his ear.
Uye tarira, umwe wevaiva naJesu akatandavadza ruoko, akavhomora munondo wake akatema muranda wemupristi mukuru, akagura nzeve yake.
52 Then Jesus saith to him: Put up again thy sword into its place: for all that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
Ipapo Jesu akati kwaari: Dzosera munondo wako munzvimbo yawo, nokuti vese vanobata munondo vanoparara nemunondo.
53 Thinkest thou that I cannot ask my Father, and he will give me presently more than twelve legions of angels?
Kana unofunga here kuti handigoni ikozvino kukumbira kuna Baba vangu, vakandigadzikira mapoka emauto evatumwa anopfuura gumi nemaviri?
54 How then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that so it must be done?
Ko magwaro angazadziswa sei kuti zvinofanira kuva saizvozvo?
55 In that same hour Jesus said to the multitudes: You are come out as it were to a robber with swords and clubs to apprehend me. I sat daily with you, teaching in the temple, and you laid not hands on me.
Nenguva iyo Jesu wakati kuzvaunga: Mabuda semunovinga gororo neminondo netsvimbo kuzondibata here? Ndaigara nemwi zuva nezuva ndichidzidzisa mutembere, asi hamuna kundibata.
56 Now all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then the disciples all leaving him, fled.
Asi izvi zvese zvaitika, kuti magwaro evaporofita azadziswe. Ipapo vadzidzi vese vakamusiya, vakatiza.
57 But they holding Jesus led him to Caiphas the high priest, where the scribes and the ancients were assembled.
Avo vakange vabata Jesu vakamuendesa kuna Kayafasi mupristi mukuru, apo pakange paungana vanyori nevakuru.
58 And Peter followed him afar off, even to the court of the high priest. And going in, he sat with the servants, that he might see the end.
Asi Petro wakamutevera ari kure kusvikira pachivanze chemupristi mukuru, akapinda mukati, akagara nevaranda kuzoona mugumo.
59 And the chief priests and the whole council sought false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death:
Zvino vapristi vakuru nevakuru nedare remakurukota rese vakatsvaka uchapupu hwenhema hunopikisa Jesu kuti vamuuraye.
60 And they found not, whereas many false witnesses had come in. And last of all there came two false witnesses:
Asi havana kuhuwana, kunyange zvapupu zvenhema zvizhinji zvakauya, zvikasahuwana. Pakupedzisira kwakasvika zvapupu zvenhema zviviri,
61 And they said: This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and after three days to rebuild it.
zvikati: Uyu wakati: Ndinogona kuputsa tembere yaMwari, nekuivaka nemazuva matatu.
62 And the high priest rising up, said to him: Answerest thou nothing to the things which these witness against thee?
Zvino mupristi mukuru akasimuka akati kwaari: Haupinduri chinhu here? Ava vanopupurei zvinopikisana newe?
63 But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest said to him: I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us if thou be the Christ the Son of God.
Asi Jesu wakanyarara. Mupristi mukuru akapindura akati kwaari: Ndinokupikisa naMwari mupenyu kuti utiudze kana iwe uri Kristu, Mwanakomana waMwari.
64 Jesus saith to him: Thou hast said it. Nevertheless I say to you, hereafter you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of the power of God, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
Jesu akati kwaari: Wataura iwe; asi ndinoti kwamuri: Kubva zvino muchaona Mwanakomana wemunhu agere kuruoko rwerudyi rwesimba, achiuya pamakore edenga.
65 Then the high priests rent his garments, saying: He hath blasphemed; what further need have we of witnesses? Behold, now you have heard the blasphemy:
Ipapo mupristi mukuru akabvarura nguvo dzake achiti: Wanyomba; tichiri kudirei zvapupu? Tarirai, ikozvino manzwa kunyomba kwake.
66 What think you? But they answering, said: He is guilty of death.
Munofungei? Vakapindura vakati: Ane mhosva yerufu.
67 Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him: and others struck his face with the palms of their hands,
Zvino vakamupfira pachiso, vakamurova netsiva; vamwe vakamurova nembama,
68 Saying: Prophesy unto us, O Christ, who is he that struck thee?
vachiti: Porofita kwatiri, Kristu, ndiani wakurova?
69 But Peter sat without in the court: and there came to him a servant maid, saying: Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilean.
Petro wakange agere panze pachivanze; ndokuuya kwaari umwe murandakadzi achiti: Iwewo wakange una Jesu weGarirea.
70 But he denied before them all, saying: I know not what thou sayest.
Asi iye wakaramba pamberi pevese achiti: Handizivi zvaunoreva.
71 And as he went out of the gate, another maid saw him, and she saith to them that were there: This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth.
Zvino wakati abuda pasuwo, umwe mukadzi akamuona, akati kune vaivapo: Uyuwo wakange ana Jesu weNazareta.
72 And again he denied with an oath, I know not the man.
Akarambazve nemhiko, kuti: Handizivi munhu uyu.
73 And after a little while they came that stood by, and said to Peter: Surely thou also art one of them; for even thy speech doth discover thee.
Shure kwechinguva chidiki kwakauya vakange vamirepo vachiti kuna Petro: Zvirokwazvo iwewo uri wavo; nokuti kunyange kutaura kwako kunokuratidza.
74 Then he began to curse and to swear that he knew not the man. And immediately the cock crew.
Zvino wakatanga kutuka nekupika kuti: Handizivi munhu uyu. Pakarepo jongwe rikarira.
75 And Peter remembered the word of Jesus which he had said: Before the cock crow, thou wilt deny me thrice. And going forth, he wept bitterly.
Petro ndokurangarira shoko raJesu raakati kwaari: Jongwe risati rarira, uchandiramba katatu. Ndokubuda panze akachema zvinorwadza.
