Matthew 26
1 And it came to pass, when Jesus finished all these words, He said to His disciples,
Yesu mpwalapwisha kubeyisha makani awa, walabambila beshikwiya bakendi eti,
2 “You have known that after two days the Passover comes, and the Son of Man is delivered up to be crucified.”
“Mucinshi cena kwambeti papita masuba abili, kusekelela kwa Pasika nikutatike, neco Mwana Muntu nakatwalwe kuya kupopwa.”
3 Then were gathered together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, into the court of the chief priest who was called Caiaphas;
Pacindi copeleco, bamakulene beshimilumbo, ne bamakulene Baciyuda, balabungana mu ng'anda ya Mukulene wa Beshimilumbo bonse, lina lyakendi Kayafa.
4 and they consulted together that they might take Jesus by guile, and kill [Him],
Balikupangana mobelela kumwikatila Yesu kwakubula nabambi kwinshiba ne kumushina.
5 and they said, “Not in the celebration, that there may not be a tumult among the people.”
Nsombi balikwambeti, “Nkatwelela kumwikata mumasuba akusekelela Pasika sobwe, pakwinga ngapaba minyungwe pakati pabantu.”
6 And Jesus having been in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
Yesu mpwalikuba ku Betaniya, mu ng'anda ya Shimoni shimankuntu.
7 there came to Him a woman having an alabaster box of ointment, very precious, and she poured on His head as He is reclining.
Nomba mpobalikulya patebulu, palashika mutukashi walikuba wamanta nsupa mwalikuba mafuta anunkila amulo wadula, walatatika kwitila mafutawo pamutwi wa Yesu.
8 And having seen [it], His disciples were much displeased, saying, “To what purpose [is] this waste?
Nomba beshikwiya bakendi mpobalaboneco, balepilwa kwine, ne kwambeti, “Inga nikwataila cani cisa mafuta pabulyo.”
9 For this ointment could have been sold for much, and given to the poor.”
“Mafutawa ayandikanga kwaulisha mali angi, ne kunyamfwalishako bantu bapenshi.”
10 And Jesus having known, said to them, “Why do you give trouble to the woman? For a good work she worked for Me;
Yesu pakwinshiba byonse mbyobalikwamba, walabepusheti, “Mulamupenshelenga cani mutukashi uyu? Ici ncalenshili ame caina.”
11 for you always have the poor with you, and you do not always have Me;
“Nimukutenga bantu bapenshi cindi conse, nsombi nteti munkutenga cindi conse sobwe,
12 for she having put this ointment on My body—for My burial she did [it].
nendi letili mafutawa pamubili pakame, ‘lananikili limo kantana mbikwa mu manda.’
13 Truly I say to you, wherever this good news may be proclaimed in the whole world, what this [one] did will also be spoken of—for a memorial of her.”
Cakubinga ndamwambilishingeti, kulikonse uko bantu nkweshi bakakambaukenga Mulumbe uwu Waina pacishi conse, naco ici ncalenshi ni bakacambenga, kwambeti bantu bakanukilenga ponga.”
14 Then one of the Twelve, who is called Judas Iscariot, having gone to the chief priests, said,
Panyuma pakendi umo wabeshikwiya likumi ne babili, Yuda Sikalyote walaya kuli ba makulene beshimilumbo.
15 “What are you willing to give me, and I will deliver Him up to you?” And they weighed out to him thirty pieces of silver,
Ne kuya kubepusheti, “Inga nimumpe cani ndamulisha Yesu kuli njamwe?” Naboyo popelapo balabelenga mali a silifa makumi atatu ne kumupa.
16 and from that time he was seeking a convenient season to deliver Him up.
Kufuma cindico, Yuda Sikalyote, walatatika kulangaula cindi celela ca kumwikatilapo Yesu.
17 And on the first [day] of the Unleavened [Bread] the disciples came near to Jesus, saying to Him, “Where will You [that] we may prepare for You to eat the Passover?”
Pabusuba bwakutanguna bwakusekelela masuba ashinkwa wabula cishifufumusha, beshikwiya bakendi balesa kuli Yesu ne kumwipusheti, “Twenga kupeyo kuya kumubambila musena wa kulyelako Pasika?”
18 And He said, “Go away into the city, to such a one, and say to him, The Teacher says, My time is near; near you I keep the Passover with My disciples”;
Yesu walabambileti, “Kamuyani mu munshi uwu kumuntu wakuti wakuti, muye mwambeti, cindi cabo Bashikwiyisha cilipepi, balayandanga kwisa kulyela Pasika pamo ne beshikwiya babo kwenu.”
19 and the disciples did as Jesus appointed them, and prepared the Passover.
Basa beshikwiya balensa mbuli Yesu ncalabambila, balabamba Pasika.
20 And evening having come, He was reclining with the Twelve,
Mansailo mpokwalashipuluka, Yesu ne beshikwiya bakendi likumi ne babili balekala patebulu ne kutatika kulya.
21 and while they are eating, He said, “Truly I say to you that one of you will deliver Me up.”
Kabacilya, Yesu walabambileti, “Cakubinga ndamwambilishingeti, umo pali njamwe langulishinga kubalwani bakame.”
22 And being grieved exceedingly, they began to say to Him, each of them, “Is it I, Lord?”
Beshikwiya balanyumfwa nsoni, neco, balatatika kumwipusha Yesu, umo ne umo Nkambo, sena njame?
23 And He answering said, “He who dipped with Me the hand in the dish, he will deliver Me up;
Yesu walabakumbuleti, “Umo pali njamwe, uyo walyanga pamo nenjame mumbale iyi, epeloyo elangulishinga.
24 the Son of Man indeed goes, as it has been written concerning Him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is delivered up! It were good for him if that man had not been born.”
‘Mwana Muntu nafwe nditu, mbuli Mabala ncalambanga,’ Nomba ukute malele muntu laulishinga Mwana Muntu, ne calabako cena nalabula kusemwapo muntuyo.”
25 And Judas—he who delivered Him up—answering said, “Is it I, Rabbi?” He says to him, “You have said.”
Yuda Sikalyote, usa walamulisha, walepusheti, “Bashikwiyisha, cakubinga nkandela kuba ame ngomulambanga ayi?” Yesu walamukumbuleti, “Ulamba omwine.”
26 And while they were eating, Jesus having taken the bread, and having blessed, broke, and was giving [it] to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat, this is My body”;
Cindi ncobalikulya, Yesu walamanta shinkwa walapaila ne kulumba Lesa, walakomona komona, walayabila beshikwiya, ne kwambeti, “Mantani, kamulyani, uwu emubili wakame.”
27 and having taken the cup, and having given thanks, He gave to them, saying, “Drink of it—all;
Kayi walamanta nkomeshi yesula waini, walalumba Lesa, ne kubapa beshikwiya basa, nekubambileti, “Kamunwa mwense.
28 for this is My blood of the New Covenant, that is being poured out for many, for forgiveness of sins;
Iyi emilopa yakame yacipangano iletikilinga bantu bangi kwambeti, balekelelwe bwipishi bwabo.
29 and I say to you that I may not drink from now on this produce of the vine, until that day when I may drink it with you new in the kingdom of My Father.”
Cakubinga, nteti nkanwepo waini umbi, mpaka busuba mbweshi nkanwe waini walinolino pamo ne njamwe mu Bwami bwa Bata.”
30 And having sung a hymn, they went forth to the Mount of Olives;
Panyuma pakwimbila lwimbo lwakutembaula Lesa, bonse balapula, balaya ku mulundu wa maolifi.
31 then Jesus says to them, “All you will be stumbled at Me this night; for it has been written: I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered abroad;
Yesu walabambila beshikwiya bakendi kwambeti, “Lelo mashiku mwense nimunkane ne kunshiya ndenka, pakwinga kwalembweti, ‘Ninkashine mwembeshi, kayi litanga lya mbelele nilikapalangane,’
32 but after My having risen, I will go before you to Galilee.”
Nomba ndakapundushiwa kubafu, njameti nkatangune kuya ku Galileya.”
33 And Peter answering said to Him, “Even if all will be stumbled at You, I will never be stumbled.”
Nomba Petulo walambeti, “Nambi bonse bamukane ne kumushiya, ame ndenka nteti ndimukanepo pimbi.”
34 Jesus said to him, “Truly I say to you that this night, before rooster-crowing, three times you will deny Me.”
Apo Yesu walamwambila Petulo, “Cakubinga ndakwambilishingeti, lyopele lelo mashiku, kombwe katanalila, obe nunkane tunkanda tutatu, kwambeti nkonjishipo sobwe.”
35 Peter says to Him, “Even if it may be necessary for me to die with You, I will not deny You”; in like manner also said all the disciples.
Nomba Petulo walambeti, “Nambi cambweti mfwe pamo nenjamwe nteti nkamukanepo sobwe.” Nabo beshikwiya bonse balamba cimo cimo.
36 Then Jesus comes with them to a place called Gethsemane, and He says to the disciples, “Sit here, until having gone away, I will pray over there.”
Yesu ne beshikwiya bakendi balaya kumusena walikukwiweti, Getisemani, uko nkwalakabambileti, “Kamwikalani pano, ame ndenga uko kuya kupaila.”
37 And having taken Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, He began to be sorrowful, and to be very heavy;
Walamantako Petulo, ne banabendi Sebedayo babili, Yesu walongumana, ne kupenga mumoyo.
38 then He says to them, “Exceedingly sorrowful is My soul—to death; abide here, and watch with Me.”
Walabambileti, “Mumoyo wakame muli bulanda bunene bwakufwa nabo. Kwamwikalani pano, nomba kamucetukani.”
39 And having gone forward a little, He fell on His face, praying, and saying, “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You.”
Yesu walaya pantangu ntamwa pang'ana, walawa kali wakotamika cinso cakendi panshi ne kutatika kupaila, walambeti, “Ta, na kacikonsheka, mufunye nkomeshi yamapensho iyi. Nsombi kakutaba kuyanda kwakame sobwe, nsombi kube kuyanda kwenu.”
40 And He comes to the disciples, and finds them sleeping, and He says to Peter, “So! You were not able to watch with Me one hour!
Mpwalambeco, Yesu walabwelela kwalikuba beshikwiya basa, walabacana kabali bona tulo, neco walamwipusha Petulo, “Inga mulalilwaconi kupembelela pamo ne njame kwa kacindi kang'anowa.
41 Watch, and pray, that you may not enter into temptation: the spirit indeed is forward, but the flesh weak.”
Kumucetukani kayi kamupailani kwambeti kamutawila mu masunko. Walo moyo ulayandishishinga, nsombi mubili ulalefuku.”
42 Again, a second time, having gone away, He prayed, saying, “My Father, if this cup cannot pass away from Me except I drink it, Your will be done”;
Kayi Yesu walabashiya nekuya kankanda katubili kuya kupaila kambeti, “Ta, na nkomeshi ya mapensho iyi, nkayelela kumpitilila mpaka nwamo, naco caina, kuyanda kwinshike.”
43 and having come, He finds them again sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.
Mpwalabwelako kayi walabacana kabali bona tulo, pakwinga bikope byabo byalalema ne tulo.
44 And having left them, having gone away again, He prayed a third time, saying the same word;
Kayi Yesu walabashiya walaya kupaila katunkanda tutatu, kamba maswi amo amo.
45 then He comes to His disciples and says to them, “Sleep on from now on, and rest! Behold, the hour has come near, and the Son of Man is delivered up into the hands of sinners.
Panyuma pakendi, walesa kuli beshikwiya bakendi basa ne kwambeti, “Ne lino mucili monatulo, ne kupumwina ‘Cindi cilashiki,’ Mwana Muntu nabikwe mu makasa abantu baipa.”
46 Rise, let us go; behold, he who is delivering Me up has come near.”
“Pundukani! Tiyeni! Nte uyu shikungulisha lashiki!”
47 And while He is yet speaking, behold, Judas, one of the Twelve came, and with him a great multitude, with swords and sticks, from the chief priests and elders of the people.
Yesu kacamba, Yuda Sikalyote, umo wa beshikwiya likumi ne babili walashika ne likoto lyabantu kabali bamanta bibeshi ne mingwala. Bamakulene beshimilumbo, ne bamakulene ba Bayuda ebalabatuma aba bantu.
48 And he who delivered Him up gave them a sign, saying, “Whomsoever I will kiss, it is He, lay hold on Him”;
Shikumulisha wali kalilabambili kendi cishibisho, kwambeti, “Uyo ngweshi nshonshonte, endiye ngomulayandanga, mumwikate!”
49 and immediately, having come to Jesus, he said, “Greetings, Rabbi,” and kissed Him;
Yuda Sikalyote walalulama palikuba Yesu ne kwambeti, Mitende Bashikwiyisha! Mpwalambeco walamushonshonta.
50 and Jesus said to him, “Friend, for what are you present?” Then having come near, they laid hands on Jesus, and took hold on Him.
Yesu walamwambileti, “Obe ndo fwambana kwinsa ncoleshili.” Popelapo basa bantu Yesu balamutanya ne kumusunga.
51 And behold, one of those with Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, drew his sword, and having struck the servant of the chief priest, he took off his ear.
Nomba kamubonani! umo walikuba pamo ne Yesu walapulisha cibeshi, ne kumutimbula litwi musebenshi wa Shimilumbo mukulene.
52 Then Jesus says to him, “Turn back your sword to its place; for all who took the sword will perish by the sword;
Nomba Yesu walamwambileti, “Bwesha cibeshico mucikwama, pakwinga bonse balasebenseshenga bibeshi, nibakafwe ku bibeshi,”
53 do you think that I am not able now to call on My Father, and He will place beside Me more than twelve legions of messengers?
Sena ulayeyengeti nkandelela kukuwa ne kusenga Bata, balo pacindi copele cino ngabantumina bangelo bankondo bapita makoto likumi ne abili.
54 How then may the Writings be fulfilled, that thus it must happen?”
Na ame nyinseco, ngabinshikeconi byalambwa mu Mabala kwambeti byelela kwinshika.
55 In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, “Did you come forth as against a robber, with swords and sticks, to take Me? Daily I was with you sitting, teaching in the temple, and you did not lay hold on Me;
Popelapo, bantu basa Yesu walabepusheti, “Nipacebo cini mulaletelele bibeshi ne mingwala, pakunjikata eti njame kapondo? Masuba onse ndekalanga nenu mu Ng'anda ya Lesa kanjiyisha.”
56 but all this has come to pass, that the Writings of the prophets may be fulfilled”; then all the disciples, having left Him, fled.
“Nomba ibi byonse bilenshiki kwambeti mbyobalalemba bashinshimi mu Mabala bikwanilishiwe.” Popelapo beshikwiya bakendi bonse balafwamba, ne kumushiya Yesu enka.
57 And those laying hold on Jesus led [Him] away to Caiaphas the chief priest, where the scribes and the elders were gathered together,
Bantu basa mpobalamwikata Yesu, balamutwala ku ng'anda ya Kayafa Mukulene wa beshimilumbo bonse, uko nkobalabungana beshikwiyisha Milawo ya Mose, ne bamakulene ba Bayuda.
58 and Peter was following Him far off, to the court of the chief priest, and having gone in within, he was sitting with the officers, to see the end.
Petulo, walikakonka panyuma capataliko, mpaka walakengila mukati mulubuwa lwa ng'anda ya Mukulene wa beshimilumbo usa. Walengila mukati ne kuya kwikala pamo ne bamalonda baku Ng'anda ya Lesa, kwambeti abone ceti cinshike.
59 And the chief priests, and the elders, and all the council, were seeking false witness against Jesus, that they might put Him to death,
Beshimilumbo bamakulene, ne bonse bamu Nkuta inene ya Bayuda, bali kulangaula bakamboni bela kumubepeshela Yesu kwambeti bamushine.
60 and they did not find; and many false witnesses having come near, they did not find; and at last two false witnesses having come near,
Nikukabeti palesa bakamboni bangi bela kumubepeshela, nsombi baliya kucanapo bukamboni bwancinencine mbobalikulangaula. Kumapwililisho kwalesa bantu babili,
61 said, “This One said, I am able to throw down the temple of God, and after three days to build it.”
balambeti, “Muntuyu walikwambeti, ame ndelela kumwaya Ng'anda ya Lesa, ne kuyibaka kayi mu masuba atatu owa.”
62 And the chief priest having stood up, said to Him, “Nothing You answer? What do these witness against You?”
Lino Mukulene wa beshimilumbo bonse walemana ne kumwipusha Yesu. “Sena uliya cakukumbulapo pa bintu ibi mbyobalakubepeshenga aba bantu?”
63 And Jesus was silent. And the chief priest answering said to Him, “I adjure You, by the living God, that You may say to us if You are the Christ—the Son of God.”
Nomba Yesu nendi walamwenowa tonto. Kayi Mukulene wa beshimilumbo bonse usa walambila Yesu, “Ndakwambilinga mu Lina lya Lesa muyumi, kwambeti winse kulumbila pakwamba na njobe Klistu, Mwanendi Lesa.”
64 Jesus says to him, “You have said; nevertheless I say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the Power and coming on the clouds of Heaven.”
Yesu walamukumbuleti, “Mulamba mobene, nsombi ndamwambilishingeti, ‘kufuma cino cindi nimukabone Mwana Muntu kaliwekala kucikasa calulyo ca Lesa wangofu shonse,’ Nimukamubone kesa mwilu mumakumbi.”
65 Then the chief priest tore his garments, saying, “He has slandered; what need have we yet of witnesses? Behold, now you heard His slander;
Mukulene wa beshimilumbobonse walatwamuna munganjo wakendi kulesha bukalu ne kwambeti, “Uku ni kumunyansha Lesa ‘Sena paciyandika bakamboni nabambi’ Mulalinyumfwili mobene ncalamunyansha Lesa.”
66 what do you think?” And they answering said, “He is worthy of death.”
“Neco mulayeyengapongeconi?” Balo balakumbuleti, “Lacaniki ne mulandu, welela kushinwa!”
67 Then they spit in His face and punched Him, and others slapped,
Popelapo balatatika kumusankila mata kumenso ne kumuma mpaka, nabambi balatatika kumuma makofi,
68 saying, “Declare to us, O Christ, who he is that struck You?”
kabambeti, “Obe Klistu, Kolotela, inga lakumu niyani?”
69 And Peter was sitting in the court outside, and there came near to him a certain maid, saying, “And you were with Jesus of Galilee!”
Petulo walakekala mulubuwa kunsa kwa ng'anda. Mutukashi musebenshi wa Mukulene wa beshimilumbo walesa kulyendiye ne kwambeti, “Ne njamwe mwalikwenda pamo ne Yesuyu waku Galileya.”
70 And he denied before all, saying, “I have not known what you say.”
Nsombi nendi walakana pamenso abantu bonse, walambeti, “Ncolambanga ame nkandicishipo sobwe!”
71 And he having gone forth to the porch, another female saw him, and says to those there, “And this one was with Jesus of Nazareth”;
Petulo mpwalikupula kaya pacishinga, kayi mutukashi naumbi musebenshi walamubona, walatatika kwambila nabambi balikubapo. “Uyu muntu walikuba pamo ne Yesu waku Nasaleti.”
72 and again he denied with an oath, “I have not known the Man.”
Petulo walakana, cakwinsa kulumbileti, “Cakubinga ame nkandimwishipo muntuyo.”
73 And after a while those standing near having come, said to Peter, “Truly you also are of them, for even your speech makes you evident.”
Mpopalapitako kacindi kang'ana, bantu balikubapo balamwambila Petulo, “Kwelana ne ntaka ya ng'ambilo yakobe tuleshibinga kwambeti ne njobe owa mulikoto ili.”
74 Then he began to curse, and to swear, “I have not known the Man”; and immediately a rooster crowed,
Apo Petulo walensa kulumbileti, “Lesa anshingane ne kumpa cisubulo, na ndambanga bwepeshi, ame muntuyu nkandimwishipo sobwe.” Cindi copeleco kombwe walalila.
75 and Peter remembered the saying of Jesus, He having said to him, “Before rooster-crowing, you will deny Me three times”; and having gone outside, he wept bitterly.
Petulo walanuka maswi ngalamwambila Yesu akwambeti, “Kombwe katanalila nukankane tunkanda tutatu kwambeti nkonjishipo sobwe.” Popelapo Petulo walapula kayakulila ne kushinshimuka.
