Luke 23
1 The whole council rose and took him to Pilate.
Elikofyanya lyona nilimelegulu, nibhamusila imbele ya Pilato.
2 There they started to accuse him. “We found this man deceiving our nation, telling people not to pay taxes to Caesar, and claiming he is Messiah, a king,” they said.
Nibhamba okumukumila, nibhaikati, “Chamusanga omunu unu nayabhya liyanga lyeswe, naganya chisige okusosha likoti ku Kaisali, naikati, omwene niwe Kristo, Omukama.”
3 “Are you the King of the Jews?” Pilate asked him. “So you say,” replied Jesus.
Pilato namubhusha, naikati,”Angu Nawe Omukama wa Bhayaudi?”Na Yesu nasubhya naikati,”Awe Nawe owaika kutyo”.
4 Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, “I don't find this man guilty of any crime.”
Pilato namubhwila omugabhisi mukulu nebhise bhya bhanu ati,”Nitakulola chikayo kumunu unu”.
5 But they insisted, saying, “He is inciting rebellion all over Judea with his teachings, from Galilee to right here in Jerusalem.”
Nawe abhene nibhesigombela, nibhaikati, “Kayoganya abhanu, neigisha mubhuyudi Yona, okwambila Galilaya na Woli alyanu.”
6 When he heard this, Pilate asked, “Is this man a Galilean?”
Pilato ejile ongwa ago, nabhusilisha labha omunu oyo ni wa Galilaya?
7 When he discovered that Jesus came under Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod who was also in Jerusalem at the time.
Ejile amenya kutyo aliga ali mubhukama bhwa Helode, namusila Yesu ku Helode, okubha omwene aliga ali Yelusalemu munsiku ejo.
8 Herod was very pleased to see Jesus since he had wanted to meet him for a long time. He had heard about Jesus and was hoping to see him perform a miracle.
Helode ejile amulola Yesu, akondelewe muno kulwokubha endaga okumulola nsiku nyamfu. Ongwaga jinkuma jae endaga okulola echilugusho nolo chimwi nchikolwa nage.
9 He asked Jesus many questions, but Jesus did not answer him at all.
Helode namubhusha Yesu magambo mamfu, nawe Yesu atamubhusishe chinu chona chona.
10 The chief priests and religious teachers stood there, angrily accusing him.
Abhagabhisi bhakulu amwi na bhandiki nibhemelegulu kwo bhujaja nibhamusitaka
11 Herod and his soldiers treated Jesus with contempt and mocked him. Then they placed a royal robe on him and sent him back to Pilate.
Helode amwi na bhasilikale bhae, bhamufumile no kumujimya, nibhamugwata echifwalo bhya kisi, nibhamala nibhamusila a Yesu ku Pilato.
12 From that day on Herod and Pilate were friends—before that they had been enemies.
Helode na Pilato nibhabha bhasani kwambila olwo (kulwokubha bhaliga bhasokene).
13 Pilate called together the chief priests, rulers, and the people,
Pilato nabhabhilikila abhagabhisi abhakulu na bhatungi ne bhise bhya bhanu,
14 and told them, “You brought this man before me, accusing him of inciting the people to rebellion. I've carefully examined him in your presence, and do not find him guilty of the charges you have brought against him.
Nabhabhwila ati,”Mwandetela omunu unu kabhatangasha abhanu bhakole ebhijabhi, Lola, najomubhusha imbele yemwe, ntalola chikayo ingulu yo munu unu ingulu ya jinu omumusitakila.
15 Neither did Herod, for he sent him back to us. He has done nothing that demands he should be put to death.
Uli, nolo Helode, kulwokubha amusubhya kwiswe, Lola gutalio musango gunu akolele gunu gwiile okwitwa.
16 So I will have him flogged and then release him.”
Kulwejo enimubhuma nimala nimutatilila.
(Woli, kwiile Pilato okumutatilila omubhohywa umwi kumwanya gwa lusiku lukulu olwabhayaudi).
18 But they all shouted together, “Kill this man, and release Barabbas to us.”
Nawe bhona nibhasekana, nibhaikati,”Musosheo oyo, nuchigulile Balaba!”
19 (Barabbas had been put in prison for taking part in a rebellion in the city, and for murder.)
Balaba aliga ali munu unu abhoelwe kwo kukaya mumusi no kwita.
20 Pilate wanted to release Jesus, so spoke to them again.
Pilato Nabhabhwila lindi, nenda okumutatilila Yesu.
21 But they kept on shouting, “Crucify him! Crucify him!”
Nawe abhene nibhayogana nibhaikati, “Mumubhambe, mumubhambe.”
22 Pilate asked them for the third time, “But why? What crime has he committed? I don't find any reason for executing him. So I will have him flogged and then release him.”
Nabhabhusha ku lwakasatu,”omunu unu akolele chikayoki? Ntabhona chikayo chinu chiile okufwa kwaye. Kulwejo nikamala okumubhuma enimutatila.”
23 But they continued insisting with loud shouts, demanding that he be crucified. Their shouting succeeded,
Nawe abhene nibhakomela kwo bhulaka bhwa ingulu, nibhenda abhambhwe. Nobhulaka bhwebhwe nibhukola Pilato nekilisha.
24 and Pilate gave the sentence they demanded.
Kulwejo Pilato nabhakolela kutyo bhendaga.
25 He released the man imprisoned for rebellion and murder, but he sent Jesus to be put to death in accordance with their demands.
Namutatila unu bhendaga unu abhoelwe kwo kusamba no kwita. Nawe namusosha Yesu kwe lyenda lyebhwe.
26 As the soldiers led him away, they seized a man called Simon of Cyrene, who had come in from the countryside. They put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus.
Bhejile bhakamusila, nibhamugwata munu umwi unu atogwaga Simoni wa Ukilene, nasoka muchalo, nibhamusila omusalabha abhatule, namulubhaga Yesu.
27 A large crowd followed him, along with women who were mourning and lamenting him.
Ebhise bhya bhanu bhamfu, na bhagasi bhanu bhajubhaga nokulila ingulu yae, bhaliga nibhamulubha.
28 Jesus turned to them and said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, don't weep for me. Weep for yourselves and your children.
Nawe nabhekebhukila, Yesu Nabhabhwila ati,”Bhaalakaji bha Yelusalemu, musige kundilila anye, mwililile emwe abhene na ingulu ya bhana bhemwe.
29 For the time is coming when they'll say, ‘Happy are those who are childless, and those who never had babies, and those who never nursed them.’
Lola, jinsiku ejija bhalyaikati,”Bhana libhando bhanu bhatebhuye na mabhele ganu gatanenishe.
30 They'll say to the mountains, ‘Fall down on us,’ and to the hills, ‘Cover us.’
Niwo bhalyamba okubhwila ebhima,'Chigwile, ne bhisaka,'Muchifundikile.
31 For if they do this to wood that is green, what will happen when it's dried out?”
Kulwokubha bhakakola emisango ejo kwiti libhisi, ejibhakutiki kwiti elyumu?”
32 They also took two others who were criminals to be executed with him.
Abhalume abhandi, bhakayi bhabhili, bhasililwe amwi nage koleleki bhetwe.
33 When they reached the place called the Skull they crucified him together with the criminals, one on his right, and the other on his left.
Bhejile bhakinga Anu katogwa Fuvu la kichwa, niwo nibhamubhuma amwi na bhakayi, oumwi mukubhoko kwe bhulyo no oundi mukubhoko kwe bhumosi.
34 Jesus said, “Father, please forgive them, for they don't know what they're doing.” They divided up his clothes by throwing dice for them.
Yesu naikati,”Rata, ubhasasile, kulwokubha bhatakumenya chinu abhakola.”Nibhagabhana emyenda jae kwa jikula.
35 The people stood and watched and the leaders sneered at Jesus. “He saved others, let him save himself, if he is really God's Messiah, the Chosen One,” they said.
Bhanu bhaliga bhemeleguyu nibhalola abhatangasha nibhamujimya, nibhaikati,”Abhakisishe abhandi. Woli ikisha omwene, labha uli Kristo wa Nyamuanga, omwaulwa.”
36 The soldiers also mocked him, coming up to him and offering him wine vinegar, saying,
Abhasilikale bhona bhamugaile, bhamufogelee omwene nibhamuyana isiki,
37 “If you're the King of the Jews, then save yourself.”
nibhaikati,”Labha awe uli Mukama wa Bhayaudi ikisha awe omwene”
38 Above Jesus was a sign on which it was written, “This is the King of the Jews.”
Yaliga chilio echibhalikisho ingulu yae inu yaliga yandikilwe “UNU NIWE OMUKAMA WA BHAYAUDI.”
39 One of the criminals hanging there joined in the insults against Jesus. “Aren't you the Messiah?” he asked. “Then save yourself—and us too!”
Oumwi was bhakayi unu abhambilwe amufumile naikati, “Awe utali Kiristo? ikisha awe neswe”
40 But the other criminal disagreed and argued with him, “Don't you fear God even when you're suffering the same punishment?” he asked.
Nawe oundi uliya nasubhya, namugonya naikati, “Awe utamubhaya Nyamuanga, awona uli mundamu eyoeyo?
41 “For us the sentence is right since we're being punished for what we did, but this man didn't do anything wrong.”
Eswe chilio anu kwe chimali, kulwokubha eswe echibhona chinu chiile kulwebhikolwa bhyeswe. Nawe omunu unu atakolele chibhibhi.”
42 Then he said, “Jesus, please remember me when you come into your kingdom.”
Ongesishe, “Yesu, unyichuke anu ulengila mubhukama bhwao.”
43 Jesus replied, “I promise you today you will be with me in paradise.”
Yes namubhwila ati, “Ikilisha enikubhwila ati, lelo linu oubha nanye Mupaladiso.”
44 By this time it was around noon and darkness fell over the whole land until three in the afternoon.
Awo jaliga nijifogela saa sita mumwisi, echisute nichijula ingulu ye chalo okukinga saa tisa,
45 The sun's light was shut out, and the Temple veil was torn in two.
Obhwelu bhwa lisubha bhasimile. Ndiya lipaziya lya muyekalu niligabhanyika katikati okwambila ingulu.
46 Jesus called out in a loud voice, “Father, I place myself in your hands.” Having said this he breathed his last.
Nalila kwo bhulaka bhunene, Yesu naikati, “Rata mumabhoko gao natamo omwoyo gwani,”ejile amala okwaikago, nafwa.
47 When the centurion saw what had happened he praised God and said, “Surely this man was innocent.”
Awo omukulu wabhasilikale ejile alola ganu gakolekene namukuya Nyamuanga naikati, “Chimali unu sanga ali munu mulengelesi.”
48 When all the crowds that had come to watch saw what happened they went home beating their chests in grief.
Anu ebhise bhya bhanu bhejile amwi okulola bhejile okulola jinu gakolekene, bhasubhileyo nibhebhuma kubhifubha bhyebhwe.
49 But all those who knew Jesus, including the women who'd followed him from Galilee, watched from a distance.
Nawe abhasani bhae, na bhagasi bhanu bhamulubhile okusoka Galilaya, bhemeleguyu kula nibhalolaga emisango ejo.
50 There was a man called Joseph who was good and honest. He was a member of the council,
Lola, aligalio omunu unu atogwaga Yusufu, unu aliga umwi wa libhalaja, munu wakisi na mulengelesi,
51 but he hadn't agreed with its decisions and actions. He came from the Jewish town of Arimathea, and was waiting expectantly for the kingdom of God.
(aliga atekilishanyishe bhulamusi bhwebhwe ne bhikolwa bhyebhwe), okusoka Alimathaya, omusi gwe Chiyaudi, unu aliga nalindilila obhukama bhwa Nyamuanga.
52 Joseph went to Pilate and asked for Jesus' body.
Omunu unu, amufogelee Pilato, namusabhwa amuyane omubhili gwa Yesu.
53 Once he'd taken it down, he wrapped it in a linen cloth. He laid Jesus in an unused tomb cut into the rock.
Amutelemusishe, na guta mwisanda, naguta mumfwa inu yaliga isimbilwe kwibhui, munu aliga achali kusikwamo munu.
54 It was preparation day and the Sabbath would soon begin.
Lwaliga luli lusiku lwo kwilabha, na Isabhato niilila.
55 The women who had come with Jesus from Galilee had followed Joseph and had seen the tomb where Jesus' body had been laid.
Abhagasi, bhanu ejile nabho Yesu okusoka Galilaya, nibhamala nibhaja, nibhalola imfwa na kutyo mubhili gwae gwamamibhwe.
56 They returned home and prepared spices and ointments. But on the Sabbath they rested, observing the commandment.
Nibhasubha nibhamba okwilabha ebhinu ebhilange na mafuta amalange. Mbeya olusiku lwa isabhato nibhaumula okulubhana nebhilagilo.
