John 18
1 When Jesus had spoken these words, he went out with his disciples over the wadi of the Kidron, where there was a garden, into which he and his disciples entered.
Jesu areva zvinhu izvi wakabudira mhiri kwerukova Kedhironi nevadzidzi vake, paiva nebindu, maakapinda iye nevadzidzi vake.
2 Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place, for Jesus often met there with his disciples.
NaJudhasiwo, wakamutengesa, wakange achiziva nzvimbo iyi; nokuti Jesu kazhinji waiunganapo nevadzidzi vake.
3 Judas then, having taken a detachment of soldiers and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.
Naizvozvo Judhasi, atora boka remauto, nemapurisa kubva kuvapristi vakuru neVaFarisi, wakauyapo nemwenje nemarambi nezvombo.
4 Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were happening to him, went forth, and said to them, "Who are you looking for?"
Naizvozvo Jesu, achiziva zvinhu zvese zvaizomuwira, wakabuda akati kwavari: Ndiani wamunotsvaka?
5 They answered him, "Jesus the Nazorean." Jesus said to them, "I AM." Judas also, who betrayed him, was standing with them.
Vakamupindura vakati: Jesu muNazareta. Jesu akati kwavari: Ndini. NaJudhasiwo wakamutengesa wakange amire navo.
6 When therefore he said to them, "I AM," they went backward, and fell to the ground.
Zvino wakati achiti kwavari: Ndini; vakasudurukira shure, vakawira pasi.
7 Again therefore he asked them, "Who are you looking for?" They said, "Jesus the Nazorean."
Zvino akavabvunzazve achiti: Ndiani wamunotsvaka? Ivo vakati: Jesu muNazareta.
8 Jesus answered, "I told you that I AM. If therefore you seek me, let these go their way,"
Jesu akapindura achiti: Ndakuudzai kuti ndini iye; naizvozvo kana muchitsvaka ini, regai ava vaende;
9 that the word might be fulfilled which he spoke, "Of those whom you have given me, I have lost none."
kuti shoko rizadziswe raakareva rekuti: Vamakapa kwandiri, handina kurasa umwe wavo.
10 Simon Peter therefore, having a sword, drew it, and struck the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.
Naizvozvo Simoni Petro ane munondo wakauvhomora ndokutema muranda wemupristi mukuru, ndokugura nzeve yake yerudyi. Uye zita remuranda uyo raiva Marikosi.
11 Jesus therefore said to Peter, "Put the sword into its sheath. Am I not to drink the cup which the Father has given me?"
Naizvozvo Jesu wakati kuna Petro: Isa munondo wako mumuhara; mukombe Baba wavakandipa, handingatongounwi here?
12 So the detachment, the commanding officer, and the officers of the Jewish leaders, seized Jesus and bound him,
Zvino boka remauto nemukuru wechuru nemapurisa eVaJudha vakabata Jesu, vakamusunga,
13 and led him to Annas first, for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
ndokutanga kumuendesa kuna Anasi; nokuti wakange ari mukarahwa waKayafasi, waiva mupristi mukuru gore iroro.
14 Now it was Caiaphas who advised the Jewish leaders that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
Zvino Kayafasi ndiye wakange araira VaJudha, kuti zvakanaka kuti munhu umwe afire rudzi.
15 Simon Peter followed Jesus, as did another disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and entered in with Jesus into the court of the high priest;
Zvino Simoni Petro wakatevera Jesu, neumwe mudzidzi. Mudzidzi uyu waizikanwa nemupristi mukuru, akapinda naJesu muchivanze chemupristi mukuru;
16 but Peter was standing at the door outside. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to her who kept the door, and brought in Peter.
asi Petro wakange amire pamukova panze. Naizvozvo kwakabuda umwe mudzidzi waizikanwa nemupristi mukuru, akataura nemurindikadzi wemukova, ndokupinza Petro.
17 Then the maid who kept the door said to Peter, "Are you also one of this man's disciples?" He said, "I am not."
Zvino murandakadzi murindi wemukova akati kuna Petro: Iwewo hausi umwe wevadzidzi vemunhu uyu here? Iye akati: Handisi.
18 Now the servants and the officers were standing there, having made a fire of coals, for it was cold. They were warming themselves. Peter was with them, standing and warming himself.
Zvino varanda nemapurisa vakange vamire vavesa moto wemazimbe, nokuti kwaitonhora, uye vaidziya. Petrowo akamira navo achidziya.
19 The high priest therefore asked Jesus about his disciples, and about his teaching.
Naizvozvo mupristi mukuru wakabvunza Jesu nezvevadzidzi vake, nezvedzidziso yake.
20 Jesus answered him, "I spoke openly to the world. I always taught in synagogues, and in the temple, where all the Jewish people come together. I said nothing in secret.
Jesu akamupindura akati: Ini ndakataura pachena kunyika; ini ndaidzidzisa nguva dzese musinagoge nemutembere, panoungana VaJudha nguva dzese, uye handina kureva chinhu pakavanda.
21 Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard what I spoke to them; surely they know what I said."
Unobvunzirei ini? Bvunza avo vainzwa, zvandaitaura kwavari; tarira, ndivo vanoziva ini zvandakareva.
22 When he had said this, one of the officers standing by slapped Jesus with his hand, saying, "Do you answer the high priest like that?"
Wakati areva zvinhu izvi, umwe wemapurisa wakange amirepo akarova Jesu nembama, achiti: Ko unopindura mupristi mukuru saizvozvo?
23 Jesus answered him, "If I have spoken evil, testify of the evil; but if well, why do you beat me?"
Jesu akamupindura akati: Kana ndareva zvakaipa, pupura zvezvakaipa zvacho; asi kana zvakanaka, wandiroverei?
24 Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas, the high priest.
Zvino Anasi akamutumira akasungwa kuna Kayafasi mupristi mukuru.
25 Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him, "You are not also one of his disciples, are you?" He denied it, and said, "I am not."
Zvino Simoni Petro wakange amire achidziya moto; naizvozvo vakati kwaari: Hausi iwewo umwe wevadzidzi vake here? Iye akaramba, akati: Handisi.
26 One of the servants of the high priest, being a relative of him whose ear Peter had cut off, said, "Did I not see you in the garden with him?"
Umwe wevaranda vemupristi mukuru, ari hama yewenzeve Petro yaakagura akati: Ini handina kukuona mubindu unaye here?
27 Peter therefore denied it again, and immediately the rooster crowed.
Naizvozvo Petro akarambazve; zvino pakarepo jongwe rakarira.
28 They led Jesus therefore from Caiaphas into the Praetorium. It was early, and they themselves did not enter into the Praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the Passover.
Zvino vakabvisa Jesu kuna Kayafasi vakamuisa kuimba yemutungamiriri; uye aiva mambakwedza, asi ivo havana kupinda mumba memutungamiriri, kuti varege kusvibiswa, asi kuti vadye pasika.
29 Pilate therefore went out to them, and said, "What accusation do you bring against this man?"
Naizvozvo Pirato akabudira kwavari, akati: Imhosva yei yamunoisa pamunhu uyu?
30 They answered him, "If this man weren't an evildoer, we would not have delivered him up to you."
Vakapindura vakati kwaari: Dai uyu asaiva anoita zvakaipa, tingadai tisina kumukumikidza kwamuri.
31 Pilate therefore said to them, "Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law." Therefore the Jewish leaders said to him, "It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death,"
Naizvozvo Pirato wakati kwavari: Mutorei imwi, mumutonge zvinoenderana nemurairo wenyu. Naizvozvo VaJudha vakati kwaari: Hazvisi pamutemo kwatiri kuti tiuraye munhu;
32 that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spoke, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
kuti shoko raJesu rizadziswe raakareva, achiratidza kuti kufa rudzii kwaaifanira kufa nako.
33 Pilate therefore entered again into the Praetorium, called Jesus, and said to him, "Are you the King of the Jews?"
Naizvozvo Pirato wakapindazve mumba memutungamiriri, akadana Jesu, akati kwaari: Ndiwe mambo weVaJudha here?
34 Jesus answered him, "Do you say this by yourself, or did others tell you about me?"
Jesu akamupindura akati: Unozvireva izvi pachako here, kana vamwe vakuudza pamusoro pangu?
35 Pilate answered, "I'm not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests delivered you to me. What have you done?"
Pirato akapindura, akati: Ini ndiri muJudha here? Rudzi rwako nevapristi vakuru vakukumikidza kwandiri; waitei?
36 Jesus answered, "My Kingdom is not of this world. If my Kingdom were of this world, then my servants would fight, that I would not be delivered to the Jewish leaders. But now my Kingdom is not from here."
Jesu akapindura akati: Ushe hwangu hahuzi hwenyika ino; kana ushe hwangu hwaiva hwenyika ino, varanda vangu vangadai vairwa, kuti ndirege kukumikidzwa kuVaJudha; asi zvino ushe hwangu hahusi hwepano.
37 Pilate therefore said to him, "Are you a king then?" Jesus answered, "You say that I am a king. For this reason I have been born, and for this reason I have come into the world, that I should testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice."
Naizvozvo Pirato wakati kwaari: Saka uri iwe mambo here? Jesu akapindura akati: Unoreva iwe, kuti ini ndiri mambo. Ini ndakaberekerwa izvi, uye ndakauira izvi munyika kuti ndipupurire chokwadi. Umwe neumwe wechokwadi anonzwa inzwi rangu.
38 Pilate said to him, "What is truth?" When he had said this, he went out again to the Jewish leaders, and said to them, "I find no basis for a charge against him.
Pirato akati kwaari: Chokwadi chii? Zvino wakati areva izvi, akabudirazve kuVaJudha, akati kwavari: Ini handiwani mhosva kwaari.
39 But you have a custom, that I should release someone to you at the Passover. Therefore do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?"
Asi mune tsika, kuti ndikusunungurirei umwe papasika; naizvozvo munoda kuti ndikusunungurirei Mambo weVaJudha here?
40 Then they shouted again, saying, "Not this man, but Barabbas." Now Barabbas was a robber.
Ipapo vakadanidzirazve vese, vachiti: Kwete uyu, asi Bharabhasi; zvino Bharabhasi wakange ari gororo.
