Luke 22
1 The feast of the unleavened bread, known as the Passover, was near.
Wana feti ya Mapa ezanga levire, feti oyo babengaka Pasika, ekomaki pene,
2 The chief priest and the teachers of the Law were looking for an opportunity of destroying Jesus, for they were afraid of the people.
bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe balakisi ya Mobeko bazalaki koluka ndenge nini koboma Yesu, pamba te bazalaki kobanga bato.
3 Now Satan took possession of Judas, who was known as Iscariot, and who belonged to the Twelve;
Bongo Satana akotaki kati na Yuda oyo bazalaki kobenga « Isikarioti » mpe azalaki moko kati na bantoma zomi na mibale.
4 and he went and discussed with the chief priests and officers in charge at the Temple the best way of betraying Jesus to them.
Boye, Yuda akendeki epai ya bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe bakonzi ya bakengeli ya Tempelo mpo na kobongisa elongo na bango ndenge nini akoteka Yesu epai na bango.
5 They were glad of this, and agreed to pay him.
Basepelaki mingi mpe bayokanaki ete bakopesa ye mbongo.
6 So Judas assented, and looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus to them, in the absence of a crowd.
Yuda andimaki mpe akomaki koluka libaku malamu ya kokaba Yesu na maboko na bango, na ndenge ete ebele ya bato bayeba te.
7 When the day of the Festival of the unleavened bread came, on which the Passover lambs had to be killed,
Awa ekomaki mokolo ya feti ya Mapa ezanga levire, mokolo oyo basengeli koboma mpate lokola mbeka ya Pasika,
8 Jesus sent forward Peter and John, saying to them, “Go and make preparations for our eating the Passover.”
Yesu atindaki Petelo mpe Yoane; alobaki na bango: — Bokende kobongisela biso bilei ya Pasika.
9 “Where do you wish us to make preparations?” they asked.
Batunaki Ye: — Esika nini olingi ete tobongisa yango?
10 “Listen,” he answered, “when you have reached the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you; follow him into whatever house he enters;
Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Tango bokokota na engumba, bokokutana na mobali moko amemi eloku ya mayi. Bolanda ye kino na ndako epai wapi akokota.
11 and you will say to the owner of the house ‘The teacher says to you – Where is the room where I am to eat the Passover with my disciples?’
Mpe boloba na nkolo ndako: « Moteyi atuni: ‹ Wapi shambre epai wapi nakolia bilei ya Pasika elongo na bayekoli na Ngai? › »
12 The man will show you a large upstairs room, set out; there make preparations.”
Akolakisa bino, na etaje, shambre moko ya monene babongisa malamu; ezali kuna nde bokobongisa bilei ya Pasika.
13 So Peter and John went on, and found everything just as Jesus had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
Bakendeki, bakutaki makambo nyonso ndenge kaka Yesu ayebisaki bango mpe babongisaki bilei ya Pasika.
14 When the time came, Jesus took his place at the table, and the apostles with him.
Tango ngonga ekokaki, Yesu avandaki na mesa elongo na bantoma.
15 “I have most earnestly wished,” he said, “to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.
Alobaki na bango: — Nayokaki posa makasi ya kolia Pasika oyo elongo na bino liboso ete namona pasi,
16 For I tell you that I will not eat it again, until it has had its fulfillment in the kingdom of God.”
pamba te, nazali koloba na bino: nakolia yango lisusu te kino tina na yango ekokokisama penza kati na Bokonzi ya Nzambe.
17 Then, on receiving a cup, after saying the thanksgiving, he said, “Take this and share it among you.
Sima na Ye kozwa kopo, azongisaki matondi epai ya Nzambe mpe alobaki: — Bokamata kopo oyo mpe bokabola yango kati na bino,
18 For I tell you that I will not, after today, drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God has come.”
pamba te nazali koloba na bino: nakomela lisusu te vino kowuta na bambuma ya vino, kino Bokonzi ya Nzambe eya.
19 Then Jesus took some bread, and, after saying the thanksgiving, broke it and gave to them, with the words, “This is my body.
Bongo, azwaki lipa mpe, sima na Ye kozongisa matondi epai ya Nzambe, akataki yango mpe apesaki bango yango; alobaki: — Oyo ezali nzoto na Ngai, epesami mpo na bino! Bosalaka boye mpo na kokanisa Ngai.
Sima na Ye kolia, asalaki mpe bongo mpo na kopo; alobaki: — Kopo oyo ezali Boyokani ya sika kati na makila na Ngai, makila oyo esopani mpo na bino.
21 Yet see! The hand of the man who is betraying me is beside me on the table!
Nzokande, moto oyo azali koteka Ngai azali awa, azali kolia mesa moko elongo na Ngai.
22 True, the Son of Man is passing, by the way ordained for him, yet alas for that man by whom he is being betrayed!”
Solo, Mwana na Moto akokende, kolanda ndenge Nzambe akata; kasi mawa na moto oyo azali koteka Ye.
23 Then they began questioning one another which of them it could be who was going to do this.
Bongo bantoma bakomaki kotunana bango na bango mpo na koluka koyeba soki nani kati na bango akosala likambo yango.
24 And a dispute arose among them as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest.
Tembe moko ebimaki kati na bayekoli mpo na koyeba soki nani kati na bango aleki monene.
25 Jesus, however, said, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their oppressors are styled ‘Benefactors.’
Yesu alobaki na bango: — Bakonzi ya bikolo bakonzaka yango, mpe bayangeli na yango balingaka ete babenga bango bato malamu.
26 But with you it must not be so. No, let the greatest among you become like the youngest, and him who leads like him who serves.
Kasi esengeli te kozala bongo kati na bino. Nzokande, tika ete moto oyo aleki monene kati na bino azala lokola leki ya suka, mpe moto oyo azali kokamba azala lokola moto oyo azali kotia bilei na mesa.
27 Which is the greater – the master at the table or his servant? Is not it the master at the table? Yet I myself am among you as one who serves.
Pamba te nani aleki monene? Ye oyo avandi na mesa to ye oyo azali kotia bilei na mesa? Ezali te oyo avandi na mesa? Kasi Ngai nazali kati na bino lokola moto oyo azali kotia bilei na mesa.
28 You are the men who have stood by me in my trials;
Bino nde bato oyo botikali ya kokangama na Ngai kati na pasi na Ngai.
29 and, just as my Father has assigned me a kingdom, I assign you places,
Mpe lokola Tata na Ngai apesaki Ngai bokonzi, Ngai mpe nazali kopesa bino bokonzi,
30 so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and be seated on twelve thrones as judges of the twelve tribes of Israel.
mpo ete bokoka kolia mpe komela na mesa na Ngai kati na Bokonzi na Ngai, mpe ete bokoka kovanda na bakiti ya bokonzi mpo na koyangela mabota zomi na mibale ya Isalaele.
31 Simon! Simon! listen. Satan demanded leave to sift you all like wheat,
Simona, Simona, Satana asengi koyungola bino ndenge bayungolaka ble.
32 but I prayed for you, Simon, that your faith should not fail. And you, when you have returned to me, are to strengthen the others.”
Kasi nasambeli mpo na yo, mpo ete kondima na yo ekweya te. Mpe sima na yo kozonga epai na Ngai, lendisa bandeko na yo.
33 “Master,” said Peter, “with you I am ready to go both to prison and to death.”
Kasi Petelo azongisaki: — Nkolo, nandimi kokota boloko to kokufa elongo na Yo.
34 “I tell you, Peter,” replied Jesus, “the cock will not crow today until you have disowned all knowledge of me three times.”
Yesu alobaki na ye: — Petelo, nazali koloba na yo: lelo, liboso ete soso elela, okowangana mbala misato ete oyebi Ngai te.
35 Then he said to them all, “When I sent you out as my messengers, without either purse, or bag, or sandals, were you in need of anything?” “No; nothing,” they answered.
Bongo Yesu atunaki bango: — Tango natindaki bino maboko pamba, mbongo te, sakosi te, basandale te; boni, bozangaki eloko? Bazongisaki: — Tozangaki eloko te.
36 “Now, however,” he said, “he who has a purse must take it and his bag as well; and he who has not must sell his cloak and buy a sword.
Alobaki na bango: — Kasi, sik’oyo, tika ete moto oyo azali na mbongo azwa yango, oyo azali na sakosi azwa yango, oyo azangi mopanga ateka elamba na ye mpo na kosomba yango!
37 For, I tell you, that passage of scripture must be fulfilled in me, which says – ‘He was counted among the godless’; indeed all that refers to me is finding its fulfillment.”
Ekomama: « Batangaki Ye elongo na babomi bato; » mpe nazali koloba na bino: makambo yango esengeli kokokisama kati na Ngai.
38 “Master,” they exclaimed, “look, here are two swords!” “Enough!” said Jesus.
Bayekoli balobaki: — Nkolo, tala mipanga mibale. Yesu azongisaki: — Ekoki!
39 Jesus then went out, and made his way as usual to the Mount of Olives, followed by his disciples.
Yesu abimaki mpe akendeki lokola momesano na ngomba ya banzete ya olive, mpe bayekoli na Ye balandaki Ye.
40 And, when he reached the spot, he said to them, “Pray that you may not fall into temptation.”
Tango akomaki na esika yango, alobaki na bango: — Bosambela mpo ete bokweya te kati na komekama.
41 Then he withdrew about a stone’s throw, and knelt down and began to pray.
Akendeki mwa mosika na bango, afukamaki mpe asambelaki boye:
42 “Father,” he said, “if it is your pleasure, spare me this cup; only, not my will but your be done.”
« Tata, soki olingi, longola kopo oyo ya pasi liboso na Ngai! Nzokande, kosala te kolanda mokano na Ngai, kasi sala kolanda mokano na Yo. » [
43 Presently there appeared to him an angel from heaven, who strengthened him.
Anjelu moko awutaki na Likolo, abimelaki Ye mpe alendisaki Ye.
44 And, as his anguish became intense, he prayed still more earnestly, while his sweat was like great drops of blood falling on the ground.
Lokola azalaki koyoka somo makasi, asambelaki lisusu makasi koleka, kino motoki na Ye ekomaki lokola matanga ya makila oyo ekomaki kokweya na mabele.]
45 Then he rose from praying, and came to the disciples and found them sleeping for sorrow.
Tango asilisaki kosambela, atelemaki, akendeki epai bayekoli na Ye bazalaki mpe akutaki bango balala pongi, mpo ete batondaki na mawa.
46 “Why are you asleep?” he asked them. “Rise and pray so that you don’t fall into temptation.”
Atunaki bango: — Mpo na nini bozali kolala? Botelema mpe bosambela mpo ete bokweya te kati na komekama.
47 While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared in sight, led by the man called Judas, who was one of the Twelve. Judas approached Jesus, to kiss him;
Wana Yesu azalaki nanu koloba, ebele ya bato bayaki; mpe moto oyo bazalaki kobenga « Yuda, » moko kati na bayekoli zomi na mibale, azalaki liboso na bango. Apusanaki pene ya Yesu mpo na koyamba Ye,
48 at which Jesus said to him, “Judas, is it by a kiss that you betray the Son of Man?”
kasi Yesu atunaki ye: — Yuda, ozali penza koteka Mwana na Moto na nzela ya beze?
49 But when those who were around Jesus saw what was going to happen, they exclaimed, “Master, should we use our swords?”
Tango bato oyo bazalaki elongo na Yesu bamonaki makambo oyo ezali kosalema, batunaki Ye: — Nkolo, tobeta bango na nzela ya mipanga na biso?
50 And one of them struck the high priest’s servant and cut off his right ear;
Mpe moko kati na bango abetaki mosali ya mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mopanga mpe akataki ye litoyi ya ngambo ya loboko ya mobali.
51 at which Jesus said, “Let me at least do this”; and, touching his ear, he healed the wound.
Kasi Yesu alobaki: — Boye lisusu te! Yesu asimbaki litoyi ya mobali yango mpe abikisaki ye.
52 Then, turning to the chief priests and officers in charge at the Temple and the elders, who had come for him, he said, “Have you come out, as if after a robber, with swords and clubs?
Bongo Yesu alobaki na bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe, na bakonzi ya bakengeli ya Tempelo mpe na bakambi ya bato, oyo bayaki kokanga Ye: — Boni, nakomi mokambi ya batomboki mpo ete boya kokanga Ngai na mipanga mpe banzete?
53 When I was with you day after day in the Temple Courts, you did not lay hands on me; but now your time has come, and the power of darkness.”
Nazalaki elongo na bino mikolo nyonso kati na lopango ya Tempelo, mpe bokangaki Ngai te. Kasi ezali ngonga na bino, ngonga oyo bokonzi ya molili ezali kokonza.
54 Those who had taken Jesus prisoner took him away into the house of the high priest. Peter followed at a distance.
Bakangaki Yesu, bamemaki Ye kati na ndako ya mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe. Petelo azalaki kolanda na mosika.
55 But, when they had lit a fire in the centre of the courtyard and had all sat down there, Peter seated himself in the middle of them.
Mpe tango bapelisaki moto na kati-kati ya lopango mpe bavandaki lisanga, Petelo mpe avandaki elongo na bango.
56 Presently a maidservant saw him sitting near the blaze of the fire. She looked carefully at him and said, “Why, this man was one of his companions!”
Mwasi mosali moko amonaki Petelo avandi wana pembeni ya moto. Sima na ye kotala Petelo malamu, alobaki: — Tata oyo azalaki elongo na Yesu!
57 But Peter denied it. “I do not know him,” he replied.
Kasi Petelo awanganaki mpe alobaki: — Mwasi, nayebi ye te.
58 A little while afterward someone else – a man – saw him and said, “Why, you are one of them!” “No,” Peter said, “I am not.”
Sima na mwa tango moke, moto mosusu amonaki Petelo mpe alobaki: — Yo mpe ozali moko kati na bango! Petelo azongisaki: — Tata, nazali moko te kati na bango.
59 About an hour later another man declared positively, “This man also was certainly with him. Why, he is a Galilean!”
Sima na ngonga moko, moto mosusu alobaki na molende: — Ezali ya solo! Tata oyo azalaki elongo na ye, pamba te azali moto ya Galile.
60 But Peter said, “I do not know what you are speaking about.” Instantly, while he was still speaking, a cock crowed.
Kasi Petelo azongisaki: — Nayebi te makambo oyo ozali kolobela! Wana azalaki nanu koloba, soso elelaki.
61 And the Master turned and looked at Peter; and Peter remembered the words that the Master had said to him – “Before a cock has crowed today, you will disown me three times”;
Nkolo abalukaki mpe atalaki Petelo; mpe Petelo akanisaki maloba oyo Nkolo alobaki na ye: « Liboso ete soso elela, okowangana Ngai mbala misato. »
62 and he went outside and wept bitterly.
Abimaki mpe alelaki makasi na libanda.
63 The men who held Jesus kept making sport of him and beating him.
Bato oyo bazalaki kokengela Yesu babandaki koseka mpe kobeta Ye.
64 They blindfolded him and then questioned him. “Now play the prophet,” they said. “Who was it that struck you?”
Bazipaki Ye elongi mpe basengaki na makasi: — Sakola: Nani abeti Yo?
65 And they heaped many other insults on him.
Mpe balobaki na Ye maloba mabe ebele mpo na kofinga Ye.
66 At daybreak the assembly of the elders of the people met – both the chief priests and the teachers of the Law – and took Jesus before their High Council.
Tango tongo etanaki, bakambi ya bato, elongo na bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe balakisi ya Mobeko, basanganaki mpe basengaki ete bamema Yesu liboso ya Likita-Monene na bango.
67 “If you are the Christ,” they said, “tell us so.” “If I tell you,” replied Jesus, “you will not believe me;
Balobaki: — Soki ozali Klisto, yebisa biso. Yesu azongisaki: — Ata nayebisi bino, bokondima na bino kaka Ngai te;
68 and, if I question you, you will not answer.
mpe soki Ngai napesi bino motuna, bokopesa na bino mpe Ngai eyano te.
69 But from this hour the Son of Man will be seated on the right hand of God Almighty.”
Kasi kobanda sik’oyo, Mwana na Moto akovanda na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali ya Nzambe-Na-Nguya-Nyonso.
70 “Are you, then, the Son of God?” they all asked. “It is true,” answered Jesus, “I am.”
Bango nyonso batunaki: — Ozali Mwana na Nzambe? Yesu azongisaki: — Bino nde bolobi ete nazali Mwana na Nzambe.
71 At this they exclaimed, “Why do we want any more evidence? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips!”
Bongo balobaki: — Mpo na nini koluka matatoli mosusu? Toyoki yango na monoko na ye moko.
