Luke 23
1 And the whole assemblage of them arose, and carried him before Pilate.
Bantu bangi balanyamuka, nekutwala Yesu kuli Pilato.
2 And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he himself is the Christ, the king.
Lino balatatika kumubepeshela Yesu eti, “Twalamucana muntu uyu kayungaula bantu ba mushobo wetu. Walikwambila bantu eti tucileke kusonka musonko kuli mwami wa ku Loma. Kayi ukute kwambeti ni Mupulushi Walaiwa kayi eti emwami.”
3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the king of the Jews? And he answering said to him, I am.
Lino Pilato walamwipusha Yesu eti, “Sena njobe, Mwami wa ba Yuda?” Yesu walakumbuleti, “Mulamba mobene.”
4 And Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowd, I find nothing criminal in this man.
Pilato walambila bamakulene beshimilumbo nebantu bonse basa eti, “Ame kuliya mulandu ngondacana pa muntu uyu.”
5 But they were the more violent, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Judaea, beginning from Galilee, even to this place.
Nsombi balo balayuminina kumubepeshela kabambeti, “Layungaulunga ne kufulunganya bantu pakwiyisha kwakendi mucishi conse ca Yudeya. Walatatikila ku Galileya lino mpaka lashiki ne kuno.”
6 And when Pilate heard this, he asked whether the man was a Galilaean.
Pilato mpwalanyumfweco walepusheti, “Sena uyu muntu nimwine Galileya?”
7 And on learning that he belonged to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was himself also at Jerusalem at this time.
Lino mpwalanyumfwa kwambeti Yesu ukute kufuma mucishi ncalikwendelesha Helode, walamutuma kuli Helode uyo walikuba mu Yelesalemu pa cindico.
8 Now Herod, when he saw Jesus, was very glad; for he had been wishing to see him for a long time, because he had heard about him; and he hoped to see some sign wrought by him.
Helode mpwalabona Yesu walakondwa, pakwinga lyonse walikunyumfwa mbili yakendi. Neco walikuyanda kumubona. Walikuyandishisha kwambeti akamubonepo kensa cikankamanisho.
9 And he put many questions to him; but he gave him no answer.
Neco Helode walamwipusha mipusho ingi, nsombi Yesu nendi liya kumukumbulapo ciliconse.
10 And the chief priests and scribes stood vehemently accusing him.
Bamakulene beshimilumbo ne beshikwiyisha ba Milawo balesa pepi nekutatika kumubepesha cangofu.
11 And Herod also with his guard of soldiers set him at nought and mocked him, and having arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, sent him back to Pilate.
Helode nebashilikali bakendi balamuseka Yesu ne kumunyansha. Lino balamufwalika cakufwala cabwami, nekumubwesha kuli Pilato.
12 And Herod and Pilate on that day became friends with each other; for they had before been at enmity.
Kufuma busuba ubo Helode ne Pilato balatatika kunyumfwana pakwinga balikuba bapatana.
13 And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
Lino Pilato walabunganya bamakulene beshimilumbo ne beshikwendelesha kayi ne bantu bonse.
14 said to them, Ye have brought to me this man, as one that perverteth the people; and behold, I have examined him before you, and have found nothing in this man to sustain the charges which ye bring against him.
Lino walabambileti, “Uyu muntu mulamulete kuli njameti nkayungaula bantu, lino ame ndamwipushu mwense kamulipo, ndacana kwambeti liya mulandu pamakani onse ngomwa mwambanga.
15 No, nor yet Herod; for he hath sent him back to us; and lo! nothing deserving death hath been done by him.
Helode neye liya kucanapo mulandu pali uyu muntu, weco neye lamubweshe kuli afwe. Kamubona uyu muntu liya kwinsapo mulandu wakufwilapo.
16 I will therefore chastise, and release him.
Neco ndimukwipowa ne kumusungulula.”
17 Now it was necessary for him to release to them one at the feast.
Nomba Pilato lyonse walikubasungululila kayili umo pabusuba bwa Pasika.
18 And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release to us Barabbas;
Nsombi bonse bantu balolobesha pamo eti, “Ashinwe muntu uyu, mutusungwilile Balabasi.”
19 who, for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, had been cast into prison.
Balabasi uyu walasungwa pakwinga walapanga cimfulunganya mucishi ne kushina bantu.
20 But Pilate again spoke to them, wishing to release Jesus.
Nsombi Pilato walikuyanda kumusungulula Yesu, neco walamba nabo bantu basa kayi.
21 But they cried out, saying, Crucify, crucify him!
Nomba nabo balolobesheti, “Mupopeni palusanda! Mupopeni!”
22 And he said to them the third time, Why, what evil hath this man done? I have found him guilty of nothing deserving death; I will therefore chastise, and release him.
Pilato walabambila bantu kabutatu eti, nomba lenshi cani caipa uyu? Ame ndacana kwambeti liya mulandu ngwelakufwilapo. Neco ndimukwipowa nekumusungulula.
23 But they were urgent with loud voices, demanding that he should he crucified; and their voices prevailed.
Nsombi bonse bayuminina kolobesheti, “Welela kupopwa palusanda.” Lino Pilato walakomwa kumaswi ayo.
24 And Pilate gave sentence that what they demanded should be done.
Neco Pilato walapingula kwelana ne ncobalikusenga bantu baseti cinshike.
25 And he released him who for sedition and murder had been cast into prison, whom they asked for; but Jesus he delivered up to their will.
Pilato walasungulula Balabasi uyo walaleta cimfulunganya nekushina bantu ngobalasenga. Yesu bamwinse kwelana mbuli kuyanda kwabo.
26 And when they had led him away, they laid hold on one Simon a Cyrenaean, coming out of the country, and laid on him the cross, that he might bear it after Jesus.
Bashilikali balamumanta Yesu kwambeti benga bamupope. Balakumana ne Shimoni waku Kulene, nkafuma muminshi. Balamwikata nekumunyamwisha lusanda kwambeti akonkenga panyuma pa Yesu.
27 And there followed him a great multitude of the people, and of women who were bewailing and lamenting him.
Bantu bangi balikumukonkela. Pakati pabo palikuba batukashi bali kabalila nekunyumfwa kwipilwa pacebo ca Yesu.
28 But Jesus turning to them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me; but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
Lino Yesu walapilibuka ne kubambileti, “Amwe mobatukashi ba ku Yelusalemu mutalilila ame sobwe, nsombi mulilile mobene kayi ne bana benu.
29 For lo! the days are coming, in which they will say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never gave nourishment.
Pakwinga masuba nakashike bantu mpoti bakambengeti, ‘Bakute colwe batukashi balabula kusemapo nekuyamwishapo!’
30 Then will they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.
Pacindico nibakasenge malundu eti, ‘Kamutuwila’ Kayi netucina eti, ‘Tufwekeleleni.’
31 For if they do these things in the green tree, what will be done in the dry?
Nomba lino na kulico kulinjame ndecitondo catontola, nomba nikukabeconi kuli njamwe mobitondo byayuma?”
32 And two others, who were malefactors, were led with him to be put to death.
Balamanta ba kapondo babili kwambeti benga bapopwe pamo ne Yesu.
33 And when they had come to the place which is called the Skull, they there crucified him, and the malefactors; one on the right hand, and the other on the left.
Mpobalashika kumusena walikukwiweti cifupa ca mutwi, balapopa Yesu palusanda. Kopeloko balapopako bakapondo basa palusanda, umbi kululyo naumbi kucipiko.
34 And Jesus said, Father, forgive them! for they know not what they do. And they divided his garments, casting lots.
Yesu walambeti, “Ta, kamubalekelela pakwinga nkabacinshi ncobalenshinga.” Lino balensa nsolo nekuyabana byakufwala byakendi.
35 And the people stood looking on; and the rulers sneered, saying, Others he saved; let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, the chosen one.
Bantu balikuba bemana popelapo kabebela. Nomba bamakulene ba Bayuda abo kabaweluluka Yesu nekwambeti, “Walapulusha bambi, lino neye alipulushe mwine, na ni Mupulushi uyo Walaiwa ne Lesa.”
36 And the soldiers also came up to him and made sport of him, offering him vinegar,
Bashilikali naboyo balamuseka, balesa pepi nekumupa waini wasasa eti anwe.
37 and saying, If thou art the king of the Jews, save thyself.
Nekumwambileti, “Na njobe Mwami wa Bayuda, lipulushe omwine.”
38 There was also an inscription over him: “This is the king of the Jews.”
Pelu palusanda palikuba palembweti, “Uyu emwami wa ba Yuda.”
39 And one of the crucified malefactors railed at him, saying, Art thou not the Christ? save thyself and us.
Kapondo umo walikuba wapopwa pamo ne Yesu, walamucobola Yesu eti, “Sena ntobe mupulushi washomeshewa? Lipulushe nenjafwe utupulushe.”
40 But the other answering said, rebuking him, Dost not thou fear God, since thou art in the same condemnation?
Nsombi umbi walakalilila munendi nekumwambileti, “Sena obe nkotini Lesa? Tulapopwa pamo twense mu mapensho.
41 And we indeed justly; for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man hath done nothing amiss.
Nsombi afwe tobabili twelela kupopwa pakwinga tulatambulunga cilambo celela pa bintu mbyotwalikwinsa. Lino uyu neye kuliya caipa ncalensapo.”
42 And he said, Jesus, remember me when thou comest in thy kingdom.
Lino walambila Yesu eti “Mukanganuke mwakesa mu Bwami bwenu.”
43 And he said to him, Truly do I say to thee, Today shalt thou be with me in Paradise.
Lino Yesu walamwambileti, “Cakubinga ndakwambilinga lelo, nukekale nenjame mu Paladaiso.”
44 And it was now about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour,
Lino cindi mpocalashika pa 12 koloko, kwalaba mushinshe pacishi conse kushikila 3 koloko,
45 the sun having failed; and the veil of the temple was rent in two.
lino cikwisa calikucala mu Ng'anda ya Lesa calatwamuka pakati.
46 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit! And having said this, he expired.
Lino Yesu walolobesha ne liswi lya pelu eti, “Ta mushimu wakame ndaubiki mumakasa enu.” Mpwalapwisha kwambeco, walafwa.
47 And the centurion, seeing what was done, gave glory to God, saying, Surely this was a righteous man.
Mukulene wa bashilikali mpwalaboneco, walalumbaisha Lesa, ne kwambeti, “Nicakubinga uyu muntu walikuba walulama.”
48 And all the multitudes that had come together to that sight, when they had seen the things which were done, returned, beating their breasts.
Naboyo bantu bangi balikuba babungana kabebela, mpobalabona calenshika balabwelela kumanda kwabo nkabayakulyuma pantiti ne kungumana.
49 And all his acquaintances stood at a distance, and women that came with him from Galilee, beholding these things.
Bantu bonse balikumwinshiba Yesu, ne batukashi basa balamukonkela baku Galileya, balemana patali kababona byonse byalenshika.
50 And lo! a man named Joseph, of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, being a councilor, and a good and righteous man,
Kwalikuba muntu walikukwiweti Yosefe walikwikala mumushi wa Alimateya mucishi ca Yudeya. Walikuba umo wamulibunga lya Nkuta inene ya Bayuda, walikuba muntu uli cena walemekwa
51 who was not consenting to their purpose and deed, and was waiting for the kingdom of God, —
nendi wali kupembelela kwisa kwa Bwami bwa Lesa.
52 this man went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus.
Uyu muntu walaya ku musenga Pilato citumbi ca Yesu.
53 And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a tomb that was hewn out of the rock; wherein no one had yet lain.
Lino walaselusha citumbi palusanda ne kupombela mucikwisa caina, walamubika mu cumbwe ca mulibwe umo mwalikuba mutana mubikwapo muntu uliyense.
54 And it was the day of preparation, and the sabbath was now coming on.
Bwalikuba busuba bwakulibambila pakwinga busuba bwa Sabata bwalikuba pepi kutatika.
55 And the women also, who had come with him from Galilee, followed after, and saw the tomb, and how his body was laid.
Batukashi baku Galileya basa balikukonkela Yesu balaya ne Yosefe akubona cumbwe mwalabika citumbi ca Yesu.
56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and on the sabbath they rested, according to the commandment.
Balabwelela ku ng'anda a kubamba mafuta anunkila cena. Lino pabusuba bwa Sabata, balapumwina kwelana ne Milawo Lesa njalapa Mose.
