< 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.
Gavili gakona magono gavili kuhika Mselebuko wa Pasaka na Mselebuko wa kulya mabumunda gangali ngemeku. Vakulu va kuteta na Vawula va Malagizu valondayi njila ya kumkamula Yesu cha mfiyu na kumkoma.
2 But they said, “Not during the feast, or the people may riot.”
Nambu vakajova, “Tikotoka kukita chenicho lukumbi lwa mselebuko, ndava vandu yati vikita chitututu.”
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.
Yesu avili ku Betania kunyumba ya Simoni mweavi na mabudi. Peavili pameza kulya chakulya, mau mmonga mweavili na kachupa kadebe kaganga ka alabasta kamahuta geginungalilayi neju, mahuta geginungalila bwina gegatenganizwi kwa nado, akabwela. Akayidindula chupa yila, na kumyitila Yesu mahuta gala kumutu.
4 But there were some who were expressing indignation to one another and saying: “To what purpose was this perfume wasted?
Vandu vangi vevavi penapo vayomiswi na chitendu chila vakajijovela, “Ndava kyani kuyagisa waka mahuta geginungalila bwina?
5 It could have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor!” And they started censuring her.
Mahuta ago ngagagulisiwi kwa mashonga gamahele, ngavapewili vangangu!” Vakamywangila mau yula.
6 But Jesus said: “Leave her alone! Why are you bothering her? She has done something useful to me.
Nambu Yesu akavajovela, “Mumleka! Ndava ya kyani mukumung'aha? Anikitili nene lijambu labwina.
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.
Vangangu muvinawu magono goha, muhotola kuvatangatila lukumbi lwolwoha lwa mwigana. Nambu nene yati nivya lepi na nyenye lukumbi lwoha.
8 She did what she could. She has perfumed my body for the burying before the fact.
Mwene akitili chaehotwili. Alongolili kuniyitila mahuta geginungalila muhiga yangu anitendelekili kwakona kuzikiwa kwangu palongolo.
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.”
Chakaka nikuvajovela, pamulima woha Lilovi la Bwina yati likokoswa, chitendu ichi cheakitili yati chiluwuliwa kwa kumkumbuka mdala uyu.”
10 Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went off to the chief priests, so as to betray Him to them.
Kangi Yuda Isikalioti, mmonga wa vawuliwa kumi na vavili vala, akahamba kwa vakulu va kuteta ndava ya kumgotola Yesu.
11 Well upon hearing it they rejoiced and promised to give him silver coins. So he started figuring how he might conveniently betray Him.
Vakulu va kuteta pevayuwini malovi genago, vahekalili, vayidakilini kumpela mashonga. Ndi, Yuda akatumbula kulonda lukumbi lwa kumgotola Yesu.
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?”
Ligono la kutumbula kwa Mselebuko wa Mabumunda yangali ngemeku, lukumbi lwa kuhinja mwanalimbelele wa Pasaka, vawuliwa vaki vakamkota, “Ugana tikakutendelekelayi koki chakulya cha Pasaka?”
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.
Hinu, Yesu avatumili vawuliwa vaki vavili akavajovela, “Muhambayi kumuji, kwenuko yati mkumkolela mgosi mmonga agegili chihulu cha manji. Mumlanda
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?”’
mbaka munyumba yeiyingila, mkamjovelayi mkolo nyumba, ‘Muwula ikota, chivi koki chumba cha vayehe penilya Pasaka pamonga na vawuliwa vangu?’
15 He will show you a large upper room, furnished and ready; there prepare for us.”
Mwene yati akuvalangisa chumba chivaha kunani ya kugolofa chechitendelekiwi. Mtendekelayi mwenumo.”
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.
Hinu, vawuliwa vakawuka, vakahamba kumuji, vakakolela kila chindu chivi bwina ngati Yesu cheavajovili. Ndi vakatendelekela chakulya cha Pasaka.
17 When it was evening He came with the twelve.
Payavili kimihi, Yesu ahikili penapo pamonga na vawuliwa vaki kumi na vavili.
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.”
Pevalyayi pamonga, Yesu akajova, “Chakaka nikuvajovela, mmonga winu mweilya pamonga na nene, yati akunigotola.”
19 So they began to be sorrowful and to say to Him one by one, “Surely not I?” And another, “Surely not I?”
Penapo vawuliwa vaki vakatumbula kuviniswa mitima, vakatumbula kumkota mmonga mmonga, “Wu, ndi nene?”
20 He answered and said to them: “It is one of the twelve, the one dipping with me in the bowl.
Yesu akavajovela, “Ndi mmonga winu pagati yinu nyenye kumi na vavili, mweijwiga libumunda pamonga na nene munkeve.
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.”
Chakaka Mwana wa Mundu yati ifwa ngati Mayandiku Gamsopi chegijova. Nambu alachikolela mundu yula mweakumgotola Mwana wa Mundu! Mbanga kwa mundu mwenuyo ngati ngavelekiwi lepi!”
22 As they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, gave it to them and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.”
Pevalyayi, Yesu akatola libumunda, akamsengusa Chapanga, akalimetula na kuvapela vawuliwa vaki akajova, “Mtola, yeniyi, ndi higa yangu.”
23 Then He took the cup, and when He had given thanks He gave it to them, and they all drank it.
Kangi akatola chikombi cha divayi, akamsengusa Chapanga, akavapela voha vanywelili divayi muchikombi chila.
24 And He said to them: “This is my blood, that of the new covenant, that is being shed for many.
Akavajovela, “Yeniyi ndi ngasi yangu yeyilangisa lilaganu la Chapanga kwa vandu vaki, ngasi yeyiyitika ndava ya kulekekesa mabudilu ga vandu vamahele.
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.”
Chakaka nikuvajovela, ninywa lepi kavili divayi mbaka ligono lila peninywa kavili mu Unkosi wa Chapanga.”
26 And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
Kangi vakayimba lunyimbu lwa kumsengusa Chapanga, vakawuka, vakahamba ku Chitumbi cha Mizeituni.
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.’
Yesu akavajovela vawuliwa vaki, “Mwavoha nyenye yati mwitila na kunileka nene, mu Mayandiku Gamsopi Chapanga ijova, ‘Yati nikumkoma mdimaji, na mambelele yati gipechengana.’
28 But after I have been raised, I will go before you to Galilee.”
Nambu nikayukayi, yati nikuvalongolela ku Galilaya.”
29 But Peter said to Him, “Even if all are caused to stumble, yet not I.”
Petili akamjovela, “Hati ngati voha yati vakukuleka, nene katu nikukuleka lepi!”
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.”
Yesu akamjovela, “Chakaka nikujovela, kilu iyi, kwakona lijogolo langakokoleka mala zivili, yati ukunibela mala zidatu kuvya unimanyili lepi.”
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.
Nambu Petili akakangamala kujova, “Hati ngati yikunigana nifwa pamonga na veve, katu yati nikukuleka lepi!” Vawuliwa voha vakajova mewawa.
32 Then they came to a place that was named Gethsemane; and He said to His disciples, “Sit here while I pray.”
Hinu, vakahika kulidimba lelikemelewa Gesemane. Yesu akavajovela vawuliwa vaki, “Mtama apa lukumbi penikumuyupa Chapanga.”
33 But He took with Him Peter, James and John, and began to be greatly troubled and distressed.
Kangi akavatola Petili na Yakobo na Yohani. Akatumbula kuviniswa mtima na kung'ahika neju.
34 And He said to them: “My soul is overwhelmed with grief, to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch.”
Akavajovela, “Niviniswa mtima neju hati papipi kufwa. Mtama na muvya mihu.”
35 Going on a little, He fell to the ground and started praying that if it were possible the hour might pass from Him.
Akahamba palongolo padebe akajitaga cha kukupama pahi, akamuyupa Chapanga, kuvya ngati yihotoleka, lukumbi ulo lwa mang'ahiso lumupitila kutali.
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.”
Akajova, “Dadi wangu, kwa veve mambu goha gihotoleka. Uniwusilayi chikombi ichi cha mang'ahiso. Nambu lepi ngati chenigana nene, nambu cheugana wamwene.”
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?
Kangi akawuya kwa vawuliwa vadatu vala akavakolela vagonili. Hinu, akamkota Petili, “Simoni, wu, ugonili? Uhotwi lepi kuvya mihu hati lukumbi ludebe?”
38 Watch and pray, that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
Kangi akavajovela, “Muvyai mihu na kumuyupa Chapanga mkotoka kuyingila mukulingiwa. Mpungu ugana, nambu higa yitotokela.”
39 Again He went away and prayed, saying the same thing.
Akahamba kumuyupa Chapanga kavili akawuyila malovi galagala.
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.
Peavawuyili vawuliwa vaki avakolili vagonili kavili. Ndava mihu gavi na lugono. Vamanyi lepi chakumyangula.
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.
Peabwelili mala ya datu akavajovela, “Mwakona mwigona na kupumulila? Hinu yikoli! Lukumbi luhikili! Mwana wa Mundu igotolewa kwa vandu vevambudila Chapanga.
42 Get up, let's be going. See, my betrayer has approached.”
Muyimuka, tihambi. Mlolayi yula mweakunigotola ahegalili.”
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.
Yesu peavi akona ijova, Yuda mmonga wa kumi na vavili vala, akabwela pamonga na msambi wa vandu wewavili na mapanga na vibonga. Vandu venavo vatumwili na vakulu va kuteta, Vawula va Malagizu na vagogo.
44 Now His betrayer had given them a signal, saying, “Whomever I kiss, he it is; seize him and take him away securely.”
Yuda, yula mweamgotwili Yesu, avapelili ulangisu msambi wa vandu wula, “Kuvya yula mwenikumjambusa cha kumkumbatila, ndi mumkamula na mumpeleka kuni avi muulonda.”
45 So upon arriving he went directly to Him and said to Him, “Rabbi, Rabbi!” and kissed Him.
Yuda peahikili ndu amuhambalili Yesu akamjovela, “Muwula!” Kangi akamjambusa cha kumkumbatila.
46 So they laid their hands on Him and secured Him.
Hinu vandu vala vakamkamula Yesu na kumkunga.
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.
Mmonga mweayimili pamonga na Yesu, akaholomola upanga waki, akamdumula likutu mvanda wa Mteta Mkulu.
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.
Yesu akamjovela, “Wu, mbwelili na mapanga na vibonga kunikamula ngati kuvya nene mnyagaji?
49 I was with you daily in the temple, teaching, and you did not seize me. But the Scriptures must be fulfilled.”
Magono goha navi pamonga na nyenye, niwula ku Nyumba ya Chapanga, nambu mwanikamwili lepi. Nambu hinu yikugagana Mayandiku Gamsopi gatimilayi.”
50 Then they all deserted Him and ran away.
Penapo vawuliwa voha vakamleka na kutila.
51 Now a certain young man had followed Him, having a linen cloth thrown around his naked body. The young men grabbed him,
Kwavili na msongolo mmonga mweamlandayi Yesu awalili chikwinda. Vene valingili kumkamula.
52 so leaving the linen cloth he fled from them naked.
Nambu mwene akalema, akachileka chikwinda chila, akajumba waka.
53 They led Jesus away to the high priest; and with him were assembled all the chief priests, the elders, and the scribes.
Hinu, vampeliki Yesu kunyumba ya Mteta Mkulu, penapo ndi pevakonganiki pamonga vakulu va kuteta voha na vagogo na Vawula va Malagizu.
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.
Petili amlandili Yesu chapatali, akayingila muluvanja lwa nyumba ya Mteta Mkulu. Akatama pamonga na valonda kuyota motu.
55 Now the chief priests and the whole council were seeking testimony against Jesus so as to kill Him, but were not finding any.
Vakulu va kuteta na libanji loha valondai lilovi la kumtakila Yesu muni vahotola kumkoma, nambu valipati lepi.
56 To be sure, many were testifying falsely against Him, but their statements did not agree.
Vandu vamahele vajovili gaudese ndava ya Yesu, nambu malovi gavi gayidakilini lepi.
57 Then some stood up and started testifying falsely against Him, saying,
Kangi vandu vangi vakayima kujova udese ndava ya Yesu, vakajova,
58 “We heard him saying: ‘I will destroy this temple made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.’”
“Tete tamuyuwini ijova, ‘Nene yati nigwisa Nyumba ya Chapanga iyi yeyijengiwi na vandu, na mu magono gadatu yati nijenga yingi yangajengewa na vandu.’”
59 But not even then did their testimony agree.
Nambu pamonga na ago, malovi gavi gayidikilini lepi.
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?”
Hinu, Mteta Mkulu akayima pagati yavi akamkota Yesu, “Wu, wiyangula lepi lilovi, vandu venava vakukutakila kyani?”
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?”
Nambu mwene agunili, ajovili lepi lilovi hati limonga. Mkulu wa kuteta akamkota kavili, “Veve ndi Kilisitu, Mwana wa Chapanga Mmotisa?”
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.”
Yesu akayangula, “Ena, ndi nene. Kavili yati mukumlola Mwana wa Mundu atamili upandi wa kulyelela cha Bambu yula mweavi na makakala. Ibwela kuhumila mumahundi ga kunani kwa Chapanga!”
63 Then the high priest tore his clothes and said: “What further need do we have of witnesses?
Penapo ndi Mteta Mkulu akapapula nyula zaki, akajova, “Tigana lepi kuyuwana malovi gangi ndava ya mundu uyu!
64 You heard the blasphemy! What do you think?” They all condemned Him to be deserving of death.
Mumyuwini cheakumliga Chapanga! Nyenye mjova wuli?” Voha vamganili akomiwa.
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.
Hinu, vangi pagati yavi vakatumbula kumuhunyila mata, vakamgubika pamihu vakamtova na kumjovela, “Lotelayi, ndi yani mweakutovili!” Hati valonda vakamtola, vakampamanda.
66 Now as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came by.
Petili peavi akona muluvanja lwa nyumba, mtumisi mmonga wa chidala wa Mteta Mkulu abwelili.
67 And seeing Peter warming himself, she looked closely at him and said, “You too were with Jesus the Natsarene!”
Peamuweni Petili iyota motu, amlolili, akamjovela, “Hati veve wavili pamonga na Yesu wa ku Nazaleti.”
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.
Nambu Petili akabela, “Kwali, nakuchimanya cheujova!” Petili akawuka akahamba pamlyangu wa kuyingilila. Penapo ndi lijogolo likakokoleka.
69 But that servant girl saw him again and began to say to those standing by, “This guy is one of them.”
Muhengaji mdala yula, peamuwene kavili Petili, akatumbula kangi kuvajovela vandu vevavi penapo, “Mundu uyu ndi mmonga wavi.”
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!”
Nambu Petili akabela kavili. Mwanakandahi, vandu vevayimili penapo vamjovili Petili, “Chakaka veve ndi mmonga wavi, muni veve mewawa ndi mundu wa ku Galilaya.”
71 Then he began to curse and to swear, “I do not know this man of whom you are speaking!”
Nambu Petili akatumbula kujova, “Nipewa likoto ngati nijova udese! Nilapa nimmanyili lepi mundu uyu mwemukumuluwula.”
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.
Bahapo lijogolo likakokoleka mala ya pavili. Petili akumbwiki Yesu cheamjovili, “Kwakona lijogolo langakokoleka yati ukunibela mala zidatu.” Petili akajitaga pahi na kuvemba.
