Luke 23
1 Then they all rose in a body and led Jesus before Pilate.
Kipenga soti sayemi, kabampeleka Yesu nnongi ya Pilato.
2 And they began to accuse him, ‘This is a man whom we found misleading our people, preventing them from paying taxes to the Emperor, and giving out that he himself is “Christ, a king.”’
Kabatumbwa kunshutumu, kababaya, “Twankutike mundu yolo atilipotosha taifa litu, kwa kuabakiya bandu baneke kutoa kodi kwa kaisari, no baya kuwa ywembe mwene nga Kristo, Mpwalume.”
3 ‘Are you the king of the Jews?’ Pilate asked him. ‘It is true,’ replied Jesus.
Pilato kannaluya, no baya, “Je wenga nga mpwalume ba Ayahudi? Ni Yesu kanyangwa no baya, “Wenga wabaya nyoo.”
4 But Pilate, turning to the chief priests and the people, said, ‘I do not see anything to find fault with in this man.’
Pilato kammakiya kuhani nkolo ni kipenga sa bandu.”Nibona kwaa likosa lya mundu yolo.”
5 But they insisted, ‘He is stirring up the people by his teaching all through Judea; he began with Galilee and has now come here.’
Lakini balo batikunsisitiza, kababaya, “Abile akiachochea bandu, atikwapundisha mu'Uyahudi woti, boka Galilaya ni saa yeno abile pano.”
6 Hearing this, Pilate asked if the man was a Galilean;
Pilato ayowine ago, kayangwa kati mundu ywoo ni a'Galilaya?
7 and, having satisfied himself that Jesus came under Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who also was at Jerusalem at the time.
Pabaatangite kuwa abile pae ya utawala wa Herode, atikumpeleka Yesu kwa Herode, ywabile niywembe ywabile Yerusalemu kwa masoba ago.
8 When Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly pleased, for he had been wanting to see him for a long time, having heard a great deal about him; and he was hoping to see some sign given by him.
Herode paamweni Yesu, atipulaika muno kwamana apalike kumwona kwa masoba ganansima. Ayowine habari za ywembe, ni atamaniye kubona yumo ywamuujiza wapangilwe ni ywembe.
9 So he questioned him at some length, but Jesus made no reply.
Herode kannaluya Yesu kwa maneno ganansima, lakini Yesu kannyangwa kwaa chochote.
10 Meanwhile the chief priests and the teachers of the Law stood by and vehemently accused him.
Makuhani akolo pamope ni baandishi bayemi kwa ukali kabanshitaki.
11 And Herod, with his soldiers, treated Jesus with scorn; he mocked him by throwing a gorgeous robe round him, and then sent him back to Pilate.
Herode pamope nia askari bake, kabantukana ni kun'geya, ni kummwika ngobo nzuri, boka po atikunrudisha Yesu kwa Pilato.
12 And Herod and Pilate became friends that very day, for before that there had been ill-will between them.
Herode ni Pilato babile mbwiga boka lisoba lelo, (kabla ya ago babile maadui)
13 So Pilate summoned the chief priests, and the leading men, and the people,
Pilato kabakema pamope makuhani akolo ni atawala ni kipenga sa bandu,
14 and said to them, ‘You brought this man before me charged with misleading the people; and yet, for my part, though I examined him before you, I did not find this man to blame for any of the things of which you accuse him;
Kabaakokeya, “Mwaniletii mundu yoo kati mundu ywaongoza bandu bapange abaya, no linga, baada ya kuba ninnaluye nnonge yinu, nibona kwaa likosa kwa mundu yoo husu makowe gote ambago mwenga mwamshitaki ywembe.
15 nor did Herod either; for he has sent him back to us. And, as a fact, he has not done anything deserving death;
Hapana, Herode kwaa, mana ambuyanganiye kwitu, ni linga ntopo chochote chaakipangite chaastahili adhabu ya waa.
16 so I will have him scourged, and then release him.’
Kwa eyo npala kumwadhibu ni kunneka.
(Pilato atiwajibika kunneka mfungwa yuno kwa Ayahudi wakati wa sikukuu)
18 But they began to shout as one man, ‘Kill this fellow, but release Barabbas for us.’
Lakini bote bakombwi lilobe lyampamo, bakibaya, “Mmulage yoo, ni kunneka Baraba!”
19 (Barabbas was a man who had been put in prison for a riot that had broken out in the city and for murder.)
Baraba abile mundu ywatabilwe mu'ligereza kwa sababu ya ubou pulani nkati ya ijiji na kubulaga.
20 Pilate, however, wanting to release Jesus, called to them again;
Pilato kaabakiya kae, atamaniye kunneka Yesu.
21 but they kept calling out, ‘Crucify, crucify him!’
Lakini bembe bakombwi lilobe, babaya, “Mmulage, mmulage.”
22 ‘Why, what harm has this man done?’ Pilate said to them for the third time. ‘I have found nothing in him for which he could be condemned to death. So I will have him scourged, and then release him.’
Kabanaluya kwa mara ye itatu, “mwanja namani, mundu yoo, apangite baya lya namani? mbatike kwaa likosa lyastahili adhabu yo kiwo kwa ywembe. Kwa eyo mana niyomwile kumwadhibu nalowa kunneka.”
23 But they persisted in loudly demanding his crucifixion; and their clamour gained the day.
Lakini kabasisitiza kwa lilobe lya kunani, baloba asulubilwe. Ni lilobe lyao lyatikunshawishi Pilato.
24 Pilate decided that their demand should be granted.
Nga nyo Pilato atiamua kuwapeya kati kabapala.
25 He released the man who had been put in prison for riot and murder, as they demanded, and gave Jesus up to be dealt with as they pleased.
Kanneka yolo ywampala ywabile atabilwe kwa kupanga ghasia ni kubulaga. Lakini atikuntoa Yesu kati kabapala bembe.
26 And, as they were leading Jesus away, they laid hold of Simon from Cyrene, who was on his way in from the country, and they put the cross on his shoulders, for him to carry it behind Jesus.
Pabannyongoli no yendya, bakwembine ni mundu yumo ywakemilwe Simoni ba Ukirene, kaboka mu'kilambo, kabampeya msalaba apotwi, kunkengama Yesu.
27 There was a great crowd of people following him, many being women who were beating their breasts and wailing for him.
Kipenga kikolo sa bandu, ni annwawa babile batihuzunika no kwomboleza kwaajili ya ywembe, babile batikunkengama.
28 So Jesus turned and said to them, ‘Women of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
Lakini atikubakelebukia, Yesu no kuabakiya,'Mwannwawa ba Yerusalemu, kana mulele kwaajili yango, ila mulele kwaajili yinu bene ni kwaajili ya bana binu.
29 A time, I tell you, is coming, when it will be said – “Happy are the women who are barren, and those who have never borne children or nursed them!”
Linga, masoba gaisa ambazo balowa baya, “Watibarikilwa balyo agumba ni ndumbo yange beleka, ni mabele yangenyonyesha.
30 At that time people will begin to say to the mountains “Fall on us,” and to the hills “Cover us.”
Nga kabatumbwa kuikokeya itombe, “Mututombokii,'na itombe,'Itufunike.'
31 If what you see is done while the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?’
Mana kati bapangite makowe aga kwa nkongo mbichi, ipalika kwaa wo'ubile nkavu?”
32 There were two others also, criminals, led out to be executed with Jesus.
Analome wenge, aharibifu abele, batipelekwa pamope ni ywembe ili kababulagilwe.
33 When they had reached the place called “The Skull,” there they crucified Jesus and the criminals, one on the right, and one on the left.
Pabaikite mahali pakemelwage Livufu lya ntwe, nga kabansulubisha pamope ni balo aharibifu, yumo upande wa kummalyo ni ywenge upande wenge.
34 Then Jesus said, ‘Father, forgive them; they do not know what they are doing.’ His clothes they divided among them by casting lots.
Yesu kabaya, “Tate, ubasamei, kwa mana payowa kwaa bapanga namani.”Bembe bapiyite kura, kutaikulya nganju yake.
35 Meanwhile the people stood looking on. Even the leading men said with a sneer, ‘He saved others, let him save himself, if he is God’s Christ, his chosen one.’
Bandu babile bayemi kabalola ni atawala kaban'geya, kababaya, “Uwalopolile benge. Nga ujilopwe wa mwene, kati wenga wa Kristo wa Nnongo, uchaulilwe.”
36 The soldiers, too, came up in mockery, bringing him common wine,
Ni akari kabandharau, kabankaribia ywembe ni kumpea siki,
37 and saying as they did so, ‘If you are the king of the Jews, save yourself.’
kababaya, “Kati wenga wa Mpwalume ba Ayahudi jilopwe wa mwene.”
38 Above him were the words – “THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
Pabile ni alama nnani yake yaiyandikilwe, “AYOO NGA MPWALUME AYAHUDI.”
39 One of the criminals who were hanging beside Jesus railed at him. ‘Aren’t you the Christ? Save yourself and us,’ he said.
Yumo nkati ya baarifu balo basulubilwe atikuntukana kabaya, “Wenga wa Kristo kwaa? jilopwe wa mwene ni twenga”
40 But the other rebuked him. ‘Haven’t you,’ he said, ‘any fear of God, now that you are under the same sentence?
Lakini yolo ywenge kayan'yangwa, atikunkemya no baya, “Je wenga wamwishimu kwaa Nnongo, ni ywembe ubile mu'hukumu yeyelo?
41 And we justly so, for we are only reaping our deserts, but this man has not done anything wrong.
Twenga twabile pano kwa haki, kwa mana twenga twapoki chelo twastahili kwaajili ya makowe yitu. Lakini mundu yoo apangite kwaa chochote kibaya.”
42 Jesus,’ he went on, ‘do not forget me when you have come to your kingdom.’
Atiyongeyekeya, “Yesu nikumbuke nenga mana uyingii mu'upwalume wako.”
43 And Jesus answered, ‘I tell you, this very day you will be with me in Paradise.’
Yesu kaankokeya, “Amini nendakumakiya, leno walowa tama pamope ni nenga mu'Paradiso.”
44 It was nearly midday, when a darkness came over the whole country, lasting until three in the afternoon,
Muda woo yabile karibu lisaa lya sita, libendo lyaisa nnani ya nchi yote mpaka saa yo tisa,
45 the sun being eclipsed; and the Temple curtain was torn down the middle.
Bwee wa liumu wateyima. Boka po pazia lya mu'hekalu latipapwanika nkati boka kunani.
46 Then Jesus, with a loud cry, said, ‘Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.’ And with these words he expired.
Kalela kwa lilobe likolo, “Tate umaboko gako nibeka roho yango,” baada yabaya nyoo, awile.
47 The Roman centurion, on seeing what had happened, praised God, exclaiming, ‘This must have been a good man!’
Muda woo akida abweni galo gatendike atikuntukuza Nnongo kabaya, “Hakika ayoo abile mundu mwene haki.”
48 All the people who had collected to see the sight watched what occurred, and then went home beating their breasts.
Wakati woo kipenga sa bandu balo bayei mpamo shuhudia makowe gapangilwe, babuyangine kabakombwa ifua yabe.
49 All the friends of Jesus had been standing at a distance, with the women who accompanied him from Galilee, watching all this.
Lakini mbwiga bake, ni alwawa balo bankengame boka Galilaya, bayemite kwa mbale kabalola makowe ago.
50 Now there was a man of the name of Joseph, who was a member of the Council, and who bore a good and upright character.
Linga pabile ni mundu ywakemelwa Ysufu, ywabile yumo wa baraza, mundu nzuri ni mwene haki,
51 (This man had not assented to the decision and action of the Council.) He belonged to Arimathea, a town in Judea, and lived in expectation of the kingdom of God.
(abile akubaliana kwaa ni maamuzi au makowe ago), boka Armathaya, ijiji sa Uyahudi, wabile utisubiri upwalume wa Nnongo.
52 He now went to see Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus;
Mundu yoo, akwembine ni Pilato, kaloba atole bwega wa Yesu.
53 and, when he had taken it down, he wrapped it in a linen sheet, and laid him in a tomb cut out of stone, in which no one had yet been buried.
Kantombwa, ni kumwalisha sanda, ni kam'beka mu, likaburi lyabile lyatichongwa mu'liwe, lyabile ntopo mundu asikilwe nkati yake.
54 It was the Preparation day, and just before the Sabbath began.
Lyabile lisiku lya maandalizi, ni sabato yabile karibu.
55 The women who had accompanied Jesus from Galilee followed, and saw the tomb and how the body of Jesus was laid,
Alwawa, baisile nakwe boka Galilaya, batikunkengama, ni babweni likaburi ni mwanja bwega wake waugonjike.
56 and then went home, and prepared spices and perfumes. During the Sabbath they rested, as directed by the commandment.
Kababuyangana ni tumbwa andaa manukato ni marashi. Boka po lisiku lya sabato kabapunzika lingana na saliya.
