Luke 23
1 The whole company of them rose up and brought him before Pilate.
Batu boso batelama va kimosi ayi bannata kuidi Pilatu.
2 They began to accuse him, saying, "We found this man subverting our nation, forbidding paying taxes to Caesar, and saying that he himself is the Christ, a king."
Kuna bamfundila bu batuba ti: —Mutu wawu tummueni wulembo votikisa batu ba tsi eto. Niandi wubedi kuba kandikanga babika futa phaku kuidi Sezali ayiwubedi tubanga ti niandi Klisto (bu dinsundula ti ntinu).
3 Pilate asked him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" He answered him, "You say so."
Buna Pilatu wunyuvula: —Ngeyo widi ntinu wu Bayuda e? Yesu wumvutudila: —Ngeyo weka tubidi buawu.
4 Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, "I find no basis for a charge against this man."
Buna Pilatu wukamba bapfumu banganga Nzambi ayi nkangu wu batu ti: —Ndisi mona kadi diambu di mbimbi ko mu mutu wawu.
5 But they insisted, saying, "He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place."
Bawu baluta buela sindisila ti: —Niandi wutonisanga zikhindu mu malongi mandi momo kalonga mu Yuda dioso; bu katonina ku Ngalili nate kuaku.
6 But when Pilate heard it, he asked if the man was a Galilean.
Pilatu bu kawa ti bayolukila Ngalili, buna wuyuvula kani mutu wowo wuba muisi Ngalili.
7 When he found out that he was in Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem during those days.
Bu kawa ti wuba muisi zunga kiyadila Elode; buna wumfidisa kuidi Elode bila mu bilumbu bina, Elode buna widi ku Yelusalemi.
8 Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad, for he had wanted to see him for a long time, because he had heard about him. He hoped to see some miracle done by him.
Elode wumona khini bu kamona Yesu bila tona thama wuba tombanga diluaku di kummonina mu diambu di mambu mawombo kawa mu niandi; ayi wutula diana ti maka mona kumu kioki maka vanga.
9 He questioned him with many words, but he gave no answers.
Buivu biwombo kanyuvula vayi Yesu kasia vutula kadi diambu dimosi ko.
10 The chief priests and the scribes stood, vehemently accusing him.
Vayi bapfumu banganga Nzambi ayi minlongi mi mina batelama vana ayi baba kumfunda ngolo.
11 Herod with his soldiers treated him with contempt and mocked him. Dressing him in luxurious clothing, they sent him back to Pilate.
Elode va kimosi ayi masodi mandi banlenza bansekinina bamvuikanledi wu kitoko; wumvutula kuidi Pilatu.
12 Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before that they were enemies with each other.
Pilatu ayi Elode bakituka bakundi tona mu lumbu kina bila batuama ba bambeni.
13 Pilate called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
Pilatu wukutikisa bapfumu banganga Nzambi, bakulutu ba batu va kimosi ayi batu. Wuba kamba:
14 and said to them, "You brought this man to me as one that subverts the people, and see, I have examined him before you, and found no basis for a charge against this man concerning those things of which you accuse him.
—Beno lundatiningi mutu wawu bu lumfundidingi ti niandi wulembu vukumuna batu. Vayi tala minu veka mbeni kunsambisa va meso meno ayi ndisi mona kadi diambu di mbimbi ko mu mutu wawu mu mambu momo lulembu mfundila.
15 Neither has Herod, for he sent him back to us, and see, nothing worthy of death has been done by him.
Elode mamvandi kasi mona diambu di mbimbi ko bila wutuvutudidi niandi. Mutu wawu kasi vanga ko bila kioki kafueti vondulu.
16 I will therefore chastise him and release him."
Diawu ndieka kunzubisa bikoti bosi ma ndiyekula. [
17 (Now he had to release one prisoner to them at the feast.)
Pilatu wuba kifu ki kuba totudilanga mutu wumosi wu nloko mu kadikanyengo.]
18 But they all shouted out together, saying, "Away with this man. Release to us Barabbas"
Vayi nkangu woso wuyamikina: —Vondisa mutu wowo; totula Balabasi!
19 (one who was thrown into prison for a certain revolt in the city, and for murder.)
Balabasi beni wukotusu mu nloko mu diambu di khindu yimosi yiba mu divula, ayi mu diambu di vonda batu.
20 Then Pilate spoke to them again, wanting to release Jesus,
Vayi Pialatu wuzola totula Yesu, wubuela yuvula nkangu vayi wawu wuyamikina diaka:
21 but they shouted, saying, "Crucify. Crucify him."
—Mbanda va dikulusi! Mbanda va dikulusi!
22 He said to them the third time, "Why? What evil has this man done? I have found no capital crime in him. I will therefore chastise him and release him."
Buna wuyuvula diaka mu khumbu yintatu ti: —Vayi mbimbi mbi kavengi e? Ndisi mona kadi diambu di mbimbi kodiodi kafueti zengulu nkanu wu lufua. Ndieka kunzubisa bikoti bosi ma ndinyekula.
23 But they were urgent with loud voices, asking that he might be crucified. And their voices, and those of the chief priests, prevailed.
Vayi babuela sindisila mu ngolo ayi baluta buela yamikina ti kabandu va dikulusi. Buna yamikina kuawu ayi koko ku bapfumu zi zinganga Nzambi kununga.
24 Pilate decreed that what they asked for should be done.
Pilatu wubaka lunaku luvanga luzolo luawu.
25 He released him who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, for whom they asked, but he delivered Jesus up to their will.
Wuba totukila mutu wowo balomba, wowo wuba mu nloko mu diambu di khindu ayi mu diambu di vonda batu. Wuba yekudila Yesu muingi bamvangila boso bubela luzolo luawu.
26 When they led him away, they grabbed one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, and placed on him the cross, to carry it after Jesus.
Bu baba kunnata, babuila mutu wumosi dizina diandi Simoni muisi Silene ku nsitu kuandi kaba. Bankuika kanata dikulusi, ku manima ma Yesu.
27 A large crowd of the people followed him, including women who also mourned and lamented him.
Nkangu wu batu wunlandakana va kimosi ayi baketo banionga mu diambudiandi, badila mu diambu diandi.
28 But Jesus, turning to them, said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
Bu kabaluka kuidi baketo beni; wuba kamba: —A beno baketo ba Yelusalemi, lubika dila mu diambu diama! Vayi ludila mu diambu dieno veka ayi mu diambu di bana beno.
29 For look, the days are coming in which they will say, 'Blessed are the barren, the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.'
Bila tala bilumbu bilembu yizi ku ntuala biobi batu bela tuba ti: “Khini kuidi bisita ayi kuidi bivumu bikambu buta ayi khini kuidi mabenimakambu yemika!”
30 Then they will begin to say to the mountains, 'Fall on us,' and to the hills, 'Cover us.'
Buna bela kamba miongo: “Bika lutubuila!” ayi zikhundubula: “bika lutufuka!”
31 For if they do these things in the green tree, what will be done in the dry?"
Bila enati bamvangila mambu mama kuidi nti wu nlandu bunabuevi bela vangila nti wu yuma e?
32 There were also others, two criminals, led with him to be put to death.
Batu buadi bankaka, mimvangi mi mambu mambimbi, banatu yandi mu vondu va kimosi.
33 When they came to the place that is called The Skull, they crucified him there with the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left.
Bu batula va buangu kintedulungu “Mvesi wu ntu” vana bambandilava dikulusi va kimso ayi mimvangi miodi mi mambu mambimbi. Wumosiku koko kuandi ku lubakala ayi wunkaka ku koko kuandi ku lumoso.
34 And Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing." Dividing his garments among them, they cast lots.
Buna Yesu wutuba: —A tata, bika wuba lemvukila bila basi zaba ko mambu balembu vangi. Babula zeki mu diambu di kabana minledi miandi.
35 The people stood watching. The rulers also scoffed at him, saying, "He saved others. Let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, his Chosen One."
Nkangu wu batu wutelama vana, wutala. Ayi minyadi mamvawu minsekinina bu mituba: —Niandi wuvukisidi batu bankaka, bika kakivukisa niandi veka enati niandi Klisto, mutu wusobulu kuidi Nzambi!
36 The soldiers also mocked him, coming to him and offering him vinegar,
Masodi mamvawu mansekinina; mafikama va kaba ayi mantambika vinu ki ngami
37 and saying, "If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself."
ayi batuba: —Enati ngeyo widi ntinu wu Bayuda, bika wukivukisa ngeyo veka!
38 An inscription was also written above him: "THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS."
Va mbata ntu andi vaba tini ki dibaya kisonama mambu mama: “Niandi niawu ntinu wu Bayuda.”
39 One of the criminals who hung there insulted him, saying, "Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us."
Wumosi mu mimvangi mi mambu mambimbi wubandu va mdikulusiwumfinga bu katuba: —Ngeyo ko Klisto e? Buna wukivukisa ngeyo veka bosi wutuvukisa beto mamveto!
40 But the other answered, and rebuking him said, "Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?
Vayi wunkaka wuntebidila bu kankamba: —Ngeyo kadi tsisi wukadi mona Nzambi! Bila ngeyo widi ku thumbudulu yimosi?
41 And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward for our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong."
Beto tubeki thumbudulu yifueni ayi yisonga bila tutambudi mfutu wufueni mu mambu matuvengi vayi niandi kasi vanga kadi diambu dimosi dimbimbi ko.
42 And he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your Kingdom."
Buna wukamba Yesu: —A Pfumu bika wuba kuthebukila moyo mu thangu wela kuiza mu kipfumu kiaku!
43 And he said to him, "Assuredly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise."
Buna Yesu wumvutudila: —Bukiedika ndikukamba, mu lumbu kiaki ngeyo ma wuba yama va kimosi ku Paladisu.
44 And it was now about noon, and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon,
Yiba nduka-ndkuka midi, tsi yoso yiba mu tombi ayi kiawukinzingila nate mu thangu yi ntatu ku manima midi.
45 for the sun's light failed. And the veil of the temple was torn in two.
Thangu yinomba bosi lido yinneni yi nzo Nzambi yikanzuka va khatitsika.
46 And Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit." Having said this, he breathed his last.
Buna Yesu wuyamikina mu ndinga yingolo: —A tata, mu mioko miaku ndintambika mpeve yama! Bu katuba mambu momo, wufua.
47 When the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, "Certainly this was a righteous man."
Pfumu yi masodi bu kamona mambu mavioka, wukembisa Nzambi bu katuba: —Bukiedika kuandi ti mutu wawu wubedi wusonga!
48 All the crowds that came together to see this, when they saw the things that were done, returned home beating their breasts.
Nkangu woso wu batu bakutakana mu tala mambu mavangama, bu bamona mambu mavioka, bavutuka kuawu, ayi baba nionga.
49 All his acquaintances, and the women who followed with him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching these things.
Ayi batu bobo bazabana yandi ayi baketo bobo banlandakana tona ku Ngalili thama batelimina mu tala mambu momo.
50 And look, a man named Joseph, who was a member of the council, a good and righteous man
Tala, mutu wumosi dizina diandi Zefu wuba wumosi mu batu baba kotanga mu lukutukunu lunneni lu Bayuda. Wuba mutu wumboti ayi wusonga.
51 (he had not consented to their counsel and deed), from Arimathea, a city of the Judeans, who was also waiting for the Kingdom of God:
Niandi kasia bundana mu nzengolo yawu ko ayi mu mavanga mawu ko. Niandi wuba muisi divula di Alimate, divula di bayuda ayi niandi mamvandi wuba vingilanga Kipfumu ki Nzambi.
52 this man went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus.
Wuyenda kuidi Pilatu, wunlomba nitu yi Yesu.
53 He took it down, and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and placed him in a tomb that was cut in stone, where no one had ever been placed.
Bu kayi kulula va dikulusi, buna wuyizinga mu dilasola di lino ayi wutula yawu mu dibumbi disokulu mu ditadi dinneni. Kadi mutu kazikulu ko mu dibumbi beni.
54 It was the day of the Preparation, and the Sabbath was drawing near.
Kiba lumbu ki khubumunu, tuamina lumbu ki saba.
55 The women, who had come with him out of Galilee, followed after, and saw the tomb, and how his body was placed.
Baketo bobo balandakana Yesu tona ku Ngalili balandakana Zefu, bamona bibumbi ayi buevi batudila nitu yi Yesu.
56 They returned, and prepared spices and ointments. On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
Bosi bavutuka kuawu ayi bakubika mafuta ma tsudi yi kotoko ayi malasi. Bavunda kuawu mu lumbu ki saba boso bubela mina.
