Mark 14
1 It was two days before the Passover and the Unleavened Bread. The chief priests and the scribes were looking for an underhanded way to seize and kill Him.
Na rĩrĩ, gwatigaire o mĩthenya ĩĩrĩ nĩguo kũgĩe na Gĩathĩ kĩa Bathaka na kĩa Mĩgate ĩtarĩ Mĩĩkĩre Ndawa ya Kũimbia, nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na arutani a watho nĩmacaragia ũrĩa mangĩnyiitithia Jesũ na njĩra ya wara nĩguo mamũũrage.
2 But they said, “Not during the feast, or the people may riot.”
Makiuga atĩrĩ, “No tũtingĩmũnyiita hĩndĩ ya Gĩathĩ, tondũ andũ mahota kũruta haaro.”
3 Being in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper, as He was reclining at a meal, a woman came having an alabaster vase of very costly perfume of pure nard. Then she broke the vase and began to pour it over His head.
Na rĩrĩa arĩ itũũra-inĩ rĩa Bethania kwa mũndũ wetagwo Simoni ũrĩa warĩ na mangũ, aikarĩte metha-inĩ akĩrĩa irio-rĩ, nĩhookire mũndũ-wa-nja arĩ na cuba ya maguta ma goro mũno na manungi wega. Akĩũraga cuba ĩyo na akĩmũitĩrĩria maguta macio mũtwe.
4 But there were some who were expressing indignation to one another and saying: “To what purpose was this perfume wasted?
Andũ amwe arĩa maarĩ kuo makĩigua ũũru, makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Maguta maya maitangwo ũguo nĩkĩ?
5 It could have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor!” And they started censuring her.
Maguta macio nĩmangĩendio mbeeca ikĩrĩte mũcara wa mũndũ wa mwaka mũgima nacio mbeeca icio iheo athĩĩni.” Magĩkũũma mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio marĩ na ũũru.
6 But Jesus said: “Leave her alone! Why are you bothering her? She has done something useful to me.
Nowe Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Tiganai nake, mũramũtanga nĩkĩ? Nĩanjĩka ũndũ mwega mũno.
7 You will always have the poor with you, and whenever you wish you can do them good; but you will not always have me.
Athĩĩni marĩkoragwo na inyuĩ hĩndĩ ciothe na no mũmateithie hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe mũngĩenda. No niĩ mũtirĩkoragwo na niĩ hĩndĩ ciothe.
8 She did what she could. She has perfumed my body for the burying before the fact.
Anjĩka o ũrĩa angĩahota. Aitĩrĩria mwĩrĩ wakwa maguta o mbere nĩ ũndũ wa kũhaarĩria gũthikwo gwakwa.
9 Assuredly I tell you, wherever this Gospel may be proclaimed throughout the whole world, what she has done will also be told as a memorial to her.”
Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, kũrĩa guothe Ũhoro-ũyũ-Mwega ũkaahunjagio thĩinĩ wa thĩ, ũguo eka nĩũkeeragwo andũ nĩgeetha aririkanagwo.”
10 Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went off to the chief priests, so as to betray Him to them.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Judasi Mũisikariota, ũmwe wa arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ, agĩthiĩ kũrĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene agakunyanĩre Jesũ kũrĩ o.
11 Well upon hearing it they rejoiced and promised to give him silver coins. So he started figuring how he might conveniently betray Him.
Nao magĩkena mũno maigua ũguo na makĩmwĩra nĩmekũmũhe mbeeca. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Judasi agĩcaria mweke wa kũmũneana kũrĩ o.
12 Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread, when they would sacrifice the Paschal lamb, His disciples said to Him, “Where do you want us to go and prepare, so that you may eat the Passover?”
Mũthenya wa mbere wa Gĩathĩ kĩa Mĩgate ĩtarĩ Mĩĩkĩre Ndawa ya Kũimbia, o ũrĩa wathĩnjagwo gatũrũme ka Bathaka-rĩ, arutwo a Jesũ makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũkwenda tũthiĩ kũ tũkahaarĩrie nĩguo ũkarĩĩre irio cia Bathaka kuo?”
13 So He sent two of His disciples, saying to them: “Go into the city, and a man will meet you carrying a clay jar of water; follow him.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩtũma arutwo ake eerĩ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi mũtoonye itũũra, na nĩ mũgũcemania na mũndũ ũkuuĩte ndigithũ ya maaĩ. Mũrũmĩrĩrei.
14 Wherever he goes in, say to the master of the house, ‘The teacher says, “Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?”’
Kũrĩa egũtoonya mwĩre mwene nyũmba ĩyo atĩrĩ, ‘Mũrutani arooria atĩrĩ, nyũmba yakwa ya ageni ĩrĩ ha, harĩa ingĩrĩĩra irio cia Bathaka na arutwo akwa?’
15 He will show you a large upper room, furnished and ready; there prepare for us.”
Nake nĩekũmuonia nyũmba nene ya igũrũ ĩkĩrĩtwo indo na ĩgathondekwo wega. Haarĩriai irio cia Bathaka iitũ kuo.”
16 So His disciples set out and came into the city and found it just as He had said to them; and they prepared the Passover.
Arutwo acio makiumagara, magĩtoonya itũũra, magĩkora maũndũ mahaana o ta ũrĩa Jesũ aamerĩte. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩhaarĩria irio cia Bathaka.
17 When it was evening He came with the twelve.
Na gwakinya hwaĩ-inĩ, Jesũ agĩkinya kuo marĩ na arutwo arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ.
18 Now as they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, “Assuredly I tell you, one of you who is eating with me will betray me.”
Maikarĩte metha-inĩ makĩrĩa akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ũmwe wanyu nĩekũngunyanĩra, ũmwe wa arĩa mararĩĩanĩra na niĩ.”
19 So they began to be sorrowful and to say to Him one by one, “Surely not I?” And another, “Surely not I?”
Makĩnyiitwo nĩ kĩeha mũno, na o ũmwe akamũũria atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ hihi nĩ niĩ?”
20 He answered and said to them: “It is one of the twelve, the one dipping with me in the bowl.
Jesũ akĩmacookeria akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũmwe wanyu inyuĩ ikũmi na eerĩ, ũrĩa ũgũtobokanĩria mũgate mbakũri-inĩ hamwe na niĩ.
21 The Son of the Man is indeed going just as it is written about him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of the Man is betrayed! It would have been better for that man not to have been born.”
Mũrũ wa Mũndũ egũthiĩ o ta ũrĩa ũhoro wake wandĩkĩtwo. No mũndũ ũrĩa ũgaakunyanĩra Mũrũ wa Mũndũ kaĩ arĩ na haaro-ĩ! Nĩ kaba mũndũ ũcio atangĩaciarirwo.”
22 As they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, gave it to them and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.”
Ningĩ o makĩrĩĩaga-rĩ, Jesũ akĩoya mũgate, agĩcookia ngaatho, agĩcooka akĩwenyũranga, akĩhe arutwo ake, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Oyai; ũyũ nĩguo mwĩrĩ wakwa.”
23 Then He took the cup, and when He had given thanks He gave it to them, and they all drank it.
Agĩcooka akĩoya gĩkombe, agĩcookia ngaatho akĩmanengera, nao othe magĩkĩnyuĩra.
24 And He said to them: “This is my blood, that of the new covenant, that is being shed for many.
Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ĩno nĩyo thakame yakwa ya kĩrĩkanĩro, ĩrĩa ĩitĩtwo nĩ ũndũ wa andũ aingĩ.
25 I tell you assuredly that I will not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the Kingdom of God.”
Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ndikũnyua rĩngĩ ndibei ya maciaro ma mũthabibũ, nginya mũthenya ũrĩa ngaamĩnyua ĩrĩ njerũ ũthamaki-inĩ wa Ngai.”
26 And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
Na maarĩkia kũina rwĩmbo, makiumagara magĩthiĩ kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Mĩtamaiyũ.
27 Then Jesus said to them: “All of you will be caused to stumble because of me this night, because it is written: ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’
Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ inyuothe nĩmũrĩndirika, nĩgũkorwo nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “‘Nĩngaringa mũrĩithi, nacio ngʼondu ihurunjũke.’
28 But after I have been raised, I will go before you to Galilee.”
No ndaariũka, nĩngamũtongoria gũthiĩ Galili.”
29 But Peter said to Him, “Even if all are caused to stumble, yet not I.”
Petero akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “O na othe mangĩgũtirika, niĩ ndingĩgũtirika.”
30 Jesus said to him, “I tell you assuredly that you, today, this very night, before a rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.”
Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ngũkwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ũmũthĩ, o ũtukũ ũyũ, ngũkũ ĩtanakũga keerĩ, nĩũrĩngaana maita matatũ.”
31 But he insisted even more vehemently, “If I have to die with you, I will absolutely not deny you!” And all the others said the same.
No Petero akĩaria ahinyĩrĩirie, akiuga atĩrĩ, “O na angĩkorwo ndĩrĩkuanĩra nawe, niĩ ndingĩgũkaana!” O na acio angĩ othe makiuga o ũguo.
32 Then they came to a place that was named Gethsemane; and He said to His disciples, “Sit here while I pray.”
Nao magĩkinya handũ heetagwo Gethisemane, nake Jesũ akĩĩra arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Ikarai haha thiĩ ngahooe.”
33 But He took with Him Peter, James and John, and began to be greatly troubled and distressed.
Akĩoya Petero na Jakubu na Johana agĩthiĩ nao, na o hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩnyiitwo nĩ kĩeha kĩnene na agĩthĩĩnĩka mũno.
34 And He said to them: “My soul is overwhelmed with grief, to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch.”
Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ngoro yakwa nĩĩraigua kĩeha mũno o ta ingĩkua, ikarai haha na mwĩhũge.”
35 Going on a little, He fell to the ground and started praying that if it were possible the hour might pass from Him.
Na aathiathia hanini, akĩĩgũithia thĩ, akĩhooya atĩ korwo kwahoteka, ihinda rĩu rĩmweherere.
36 And He said: “Abba (Father), all things are possible to you. Please remove this cup from me; yet not what I will, but what you will.”
Akiuga atĩrĩ, “Abba, Baba, maũndũ mothe nĩmahotekaga nĩwe. Njehereria gĩkombe gĩkĩ. No ti ũrĩa ngwenda niĩ, no nĩ ũrĩa wee ũkwenda.”
37 Then He came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter: “Simon, are you sleeping? Couldn't you keep watch for even one hour?
Ningĩ agĩcooka harĩ arutwo ake akĩmakora makomete. Akĩũria Petero atĩrĩ, “Simoni, kaĩ ũkomete? Ndũngĩhota gũikara ithaa rĩmwe wĩiguĩte?
38 Watch and pray, that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
Mwĩhũgagei na mũhooyage nĩgeetha mũtikagwe magerio-inĩ. Ngoro nĩyenda, no mwĩrĩ ndũrĩ na hinya.”
39 Again He went away and prayed, saying the same thing.
O rĩngĩ agĩthiĩ akĩhooya o ũguo.
40 And when He returned He found them sleeping again, because their eyes were being weighed down; and they did not know how to answer Him.
Na acooka rĩngĩ harĩo, agĩkora makomete tondũ nĩmahĩtĩtwo nĩ toro. Nao makĩrigwo nĩ ũrĩa mangĩmwĩra.
41 Then He came the third time and said to them: “You are still sleeping and resting! It is enough, the hour has come; yes, the Son of the Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners.
Ningĩ agĩũka ihinda rĩa gatatũ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “O na rĩu mũrĩ o toro, o mũhurũkĩte? Kinyiai hau! Ithaa nĩrĩakinya. Atĩrĩrĩ, Mũrũ wa Mũndũ nĩakunyanĩirwo akaneanwo moko-inĩ ma andũ ehia.
42 Get up, let's be going. See, my betrayer has approached.”
Ũkĩrai, tũthiĩ! Ũrĩa ũkũngunyanĩra nĩarooka.”
43 And immediately, while He was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, arrived, and with him a considerable crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.
O akĩaragia-rĩ, Judasi, ũmwe wa arutwo arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ, agĩkinya. Ookire arĩ na gĩkundi kĩnene kĩa andũ marĩ na hiũ cia njora na njũgũma, matũmĩtwo nĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene, na arutani a watho na athuuri.
44 Now His betrayer had given them a signal, saying, “Whomever I kiss, he it is; seize him and take him away securely.”
Judasi ũcio wamũkunyanĩire nĩamaheete kĩmenyithia akameera atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩa ndĩmumunya nĩwe; mũmũnyiite na mũmũtware arangĩirwo.”
45 So upon arriving he went directly to Him and said to Him, “Rabbi, Rabbi!” and kissed Him.
Judasi o rĩmwe agĩthiĩ harĩ Jesũ, akĩmwĩta atĩrĩ, “Rabii!” na akĩmũmumunya.
46 So they laid their hands on Him and secured Him.
Nao andũ acio makĩguthũkĩra Jesũ makĩmũnyiita.
47 But a certain one of those who stood by drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.
Na ũmwe wa arĩa maarũngiĩ hakuhĩ agĩcomora rũhiũ rwake rwa njora agĩtinia gũtũ kwa ndungata ya mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene.
48 Then Jesus reacted by saying to them: “You have come out with swords and clubs to arrest me, as if I were a bandit.
Nake Jesũ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ndĩ mũtongoria wa akararia a watho atĩ nĩkĩo muoka kũũnyiita mũrĩ na hiũ cia njora na njũgũma?
49 I was with you daily in the temple, teaching, and you did not seize me. But the Scriptures must be fulfilled.”
Ndĩratũũraga na inyuĩ hekarũ-inĩ ngĩrutanaga mũthenya o mũthenya na mũtingĩĩnyiita. No rĩrĩ, Maandĩko no nginya mahiinge.”
50 Then they all deserted Him and ran away.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo arutwo ake othe makĩmũtiganĩria, makĩũra.
51 Now a certain young man had followed Him, having a linen cloth thrown around his naked body. The young men grabbed him,
Na mwanake ũmwe ũteehumbĩte kĩndũ tiga taama wa gatani akĩrũmĩrĩra Jesũ. Na rĩrĩa maamũnyiitire,
52 so leaving the linen cloth he fled from them naked.
agĩtiga taama wake nao, akĩũra e njaga.
53 They led Jesus away to the high priest; and with him were assembled all the chief priests, the elders, and the scribes.
Nao andũ acio magĩtwara Jesũ kũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene othe, na athuuri na arutani a watho makĩgomana hamwe.
54 Well Peter had followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest; and he was sitting with the operatives and warming himself at the fire.
Petero akĩmũrũmĩrĩra arĩ haraaya o nginya agĩkinya nja ya mũciĩ wa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio mũnene. Agĩikarania na thigari kũu agĩota mwaki.
55 Now the chief priests and the whole council were seeking testimony against Jesus so as to kill Him, but were not finding any.
Na rĩrĩ, athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene, o na Kĩama kĩu gĩothe, magĩcaria ũira wa kũũragithia Jesũ, no mationire.
56 To be sure, many were testifying falsely against Him, but their statements did not agree.
Na andũ aingĩ nĩmarutire ũira wa maheeni, no ũira wao ũkĩaga kũiguana.
57 Then some stood up and started testifying falsely against Him, saying,
Gũgĩcooka gũkĩrũgama andũ amwe, nao makĩruta ũira wa maheeni makiuga atĩrĩ,
58 “We heard him saying: ‘I will destroy this temple made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.’”
“Nĩtwaiguire akiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩngatharia hekarũ ĩno yakĩtwo nĩ andũ, na njake ĩngĩ ĩtakĩtwo nĩ mũndũ na ihinda rĩa mĩthenya ĩtatũ.’”
59 But not even then did their testimony agree.
No o na moiga ũguo, ũira wao ũkĩaga kũiguana.
60 Then the high priest stood up in the center and questioned Jesus, saying: “Are you not going to answer? What are these testifying against you?”
Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene akĩrũgama gatagatĩ kao, akĩũria Jesũ atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ wee ũtarĩ na ũndũ ũngĩcookia? Nĩ ũhoro ũrĩkũ ũyũ ũrathitangwo naguo?”
61 But He remained silent and answered nothing. Again the high priest questioned Him and said to Him, “Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?”
No Jesũ agĩkira ki, na ndacookie ũndũ. O rĩngĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio mũnene akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe Kristũ, Mũrũ wa Ũrĩa Mũrathime?”
62 So Jesus said: “I am, and you will see the Son of the Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming with the clouds of the heaven.”
Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ nĩ niĩ. Na nĩmũkona Mũrũ wa Mũndũ aikarĩte guoko-inĩ kwa ũrĩo kwa Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Hinya, na agĩũka arĩ igũrũ rĩa matu.”
63 Then the high priest tore his clothes and said: “What further need do we have of witnesses?
Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio mũnene agĩtembũranga nguo ciake. Akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Tũgũkĩbatario nĩ aira angĩ a kĩ?
64 You heard the blasphemy! What do you think?” They all condemned Him to be deserving of death.
Nĩmweiguĩra akĩruma Ngai. Mũgwĩciiria atĩa?” Nao othe makĩmũtuĩra atĩ aagĩrĩirwo nĩ kũũragwo.
65 Then some began to spit on Him, to cover His face, punch Him and say to Him, “Prophesy!” And the operatives started slapping Him.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo amwe makĩambĩrĩria kũmũtuĩra mata, na makĩmũhumbĩra ũthiũ, makĩmũringa na ngundi makĩmwĩraga atĩrĩ, “Ta kĩrathe ũhoro.” Nacio thigari ikĩmuoya, ikĩmũhũũra.
66 Now as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came by.
Na hĩndĩ ĩyo Petero aikarĩte o hau nja-rĩ, ũmwe wa ndungata cia airĩtu cia mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene akĩgerera ho.
67 And seeing Peter warming himself, she looked closely at him and said, “You too were with Jesus the Natsarene!”
Rĩrĩa oonire Petero agĩota mwaki, akĩmũrora wega. “Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘O nawe uuma hamwe na Jesũ ũcio wa Nazarethi’.”
68 But Peter denied, saying, “I neither know nor understand what you are saying.” And he went out into the entryway, and a rooster crowed.
Nowe Petero agĩkaana ũhoro ũcio, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndiũĩ ũhoro ũcio, o na ndiramenya nĩ atĩa ũroiga,” na akiumagara agĩthiĩ itoonyero-inĩ.
69 But that servant girl saw him again and began to say to those standing by, “This guy is one of them.”
Na rĩrĩa ndungata ĩyo ya mũirĩtu yamuonire ho, o rĩngĩ ĩkĩĩra arĩa maarũngiĩ ho atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ nĩ ũmwe wao.”
70 But again he kept denying it. Again, after a little while, those who were standing by said to Peter, “Surely you are one of them; because you really are a Galilean, and your accent agrees!”
No Petero agĩkaana ũhoro ũcio rĩngĩ. Thuutha wa kahinda kanini, arĩa maarũgamĩte hakuhĩ makĩĩra Petero atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ ũrĩ ũmwe wao, nĩ ũndũ wĩ Mũgalili.”
71 Then he began to curse and to swear, “I do not know this man of whom you are speaking!”
Nake akĩambĩrĩria kwĩhĩta akiugaga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndiũĩ mũndũ ũyũ mũraaria ũhoro wake.”
72 And for the second time a rooster crowed. Then Peter remembered the word that Jesus had said to him, “Before a rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.” He broke down and started to cry.
O hĩndĩ ĩyo ngũkũ ĩgĩkũga hĩndĩ ya keerĩ. Nake Petero akĩririkana ũhoro ũrĩa Jesũ aamwĩrĩte atĩrĩ, “Ngũkũ ĩtanakũga keerĩ nĩũrĩngaana maita matatũ.” Nake akĩambĩrĩria kũrĩra.
