John 19
1 Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.
Bongo Pilato apesaki mitindo ete bakamata Yesu, mpe abetisaki Ye fimbu.
2 And the soldiers plaited a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and arrayed him in a purple garment;
Basoda basalaki ekoti na banzube mpe balatisaki Ye yango na moto; balatisaki Ye lisusu nzambala ya motane.
3 and they came unto him, and said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they struck him with their hands.
Bazalaki koya koloba na Ye: « Mbote, mokonzi ya Bayuda! » Mpe babandaki kobeta Ye bambata.
4 And Pilate went out again, and saith unto them, Behold, I bring him out to you, that ye may know that I find no crime in him.
Pilato abimaki lisusu mpe alobaki na bango: — Botala! Nayei na Ye na libanda epai na bino mpo boyeba ete ngai nazwi Ye na mabe moko te.
5 Jesus therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. And [Pilate] saith unto them, Behold, the man!
Boye, Yesu abimaki alata ekoti ya nzube mpe nzambala ya motane. Pilato alobaki na bango: — Moto yango, ye oyo!
6 When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify [him], crucify [him]. Pilate saith unto them, Take him yourselves, and crucify him: for I find no crime in him.
Tango kaka bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe bakengeli bamonaki Yesu, babandaki koganga: — Baka ye na ekulusu! Baka ye na ekulusu! Kasi Pilato azongisaki: — Bino moko, bokamata ye mpe bobaka ye na ekulusu; ngai nazwi ye na mabe ata moko te.
7 The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by that law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.
Bayuda balobaki na molende nyonso: — Tozali na Mobeko; mpe kolanda Mobeko na biso, asengeli kokufa, pamba te amikomisi Mwana na Nzambe.
8 When Pilate therefore heard this saying, he was the more afraid;
Tango Pilato ayokaki maloba wana, abangaki lisusu makasi.
9 and he entered into the palace again, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.
Azongaki lisusu kati na ndako ya moyangeli mpe alobaki na Yesu: — Ozali moto ya mboka nini? Kasi Yesu apesaki ye eyano te.
10 Pilate therefore saith unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to release thee, and have power to crucify thee?
Pilato alobaki na Ye: — Boni, oboyi kozongisela ngai eyano? Oyebi te ete ngai nazali na makoki ya kobaka yo na ekulusu mpe ya kotika yo?
11 Jesus answered him, Thou wouldest have no power against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath greater sin.
Yesu alobaki na ye: — Okokaki kozala na bokonzi moko te likolo na Ngai soki epesamelaki yo te wuta na likolo. Yango wana, moto oyo akabi Ngai na maboko na yo asali lisumu monene koleka.
12 Upon this Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou release this man, thou art not Caesar’s friend: every one that maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.
Kobanda kaka na ngonga wana, Pilato akomaki koluka nzela ya kotika Yesu; kasi Bayuda babandaki lisusu koganga: — Soki otiki ye, wana ozali na yo moninga ya Sezare te! Pamba te moto nyonso oyo amikomisi mokonzi azali monguna ya Sezare.
13 When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Jesus out, and sat down on the judgment-seat at a place called The Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha.
Tango Pilato ayokaki bongo, amemaki Yesu na libanda mpe avandaki na esambiselo, na esika oyo babengaka, na lokota ya Arami, « Gabata. »
14 Now it was the Preparation of the passover: it was about the sixth hour. And he saith unto the Jews, Behold, your King!
Ezalaki mokolo ya suka mpo na kokoma na mokolo ya Pasika, na ngonga ya midi. Pilato alobaki na Bayuda: — Botala mokonzi na bino!
15 They therefore cried out, Away with [him], away with [him], crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.
Kasi babandaki koganga: — Boma ye! Boma ye! Baka ye na ekulusu! Pilato alobaki na bango lisusu: — Nasengeli penza kobaka mokonzi na bino na ekulusu? Bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe bazongisaki: — Tozali kaka na Sezare lokola mokonzi, mokonzi mosusu azali te!
16 Then therefore he delivered him unto them to be crucified.
Pilato akabaki Yesu na maboko na bango mpo ete babaka Ye na ekulusu. Boye, bakamataki Yesu mpe bakendeki na Ye.
17 They took Jesus therefore: and he went out, bearing the cross for himself, unto the place called The place of a skull, which is called in Hebrew Golgotha:
Yesu amemaki, Ye moko, ekulusu na Ye; abimaki na engumba mpe akendeki na esika oyo babengaka, na lokota ya Arami, « Gologota. »
18 where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.
Ezalaki na esika yango nde babakaki Yesu na ekulusu, elongo na bato mosusu mibale: moko, na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali ya Yesu; mosusu, na ngambo ya loboko na Ye ya mwasi.
19 And Pilate wrote a title also, and put it on the cross. And there was written, JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
Pilato akomaki na libaya, makomi oyo atiaki na ekulusu; akomaki: Yesu, moto ya Nazareti, Mokonzi ya Bayuda.
20 This title therefore read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, [and] in Latin, [and] in Greek.
Lokola esika oyo babakaki Yesu na ekulusu ezalaki pene ya engumba, Bayuda ebele batangaki makomi yango, pamba te bakomaki yango na lokota ya Ebre, lokota ya latino mpe lokota ya Greki.
21 The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but, that he said, I am King of the Jews.
Bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe balobaki na Pilato: — Osengelaki te kokoma: « Mokonzi ya Bayuda; » osengelaki nde kokoma: « Moto oyo alobaki: ‹ Nazali mokonzi ya Bayuda. › »
22 Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.
Kasi Pilato azongisaki: — Makambo oyo nakomi ekotikala kaka ndenge wana.
23 The soldiers therefore, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also the coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
Sima na basoda kobaka Yesu na ekulusu, bakamataki bilamba na Ye mpe bakabolaki yango na biteni minei: soda moko na moko azwaki eteni moko. Bakamataki mpe nzambala na Ye, oyo ezalaki ya kotongama te, kasi ezalaki kaka elamba moko, kobanda na likolo kino na se.
24 They said therefore one to another, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my garments among them, And upon my vesture did they cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.
Basoda balobanaki bango na bango: — Topasola yango te, kasi tobeta zeke mpo na koyeba soki nani akozwa yango. Esalemaki bongo mpo ete Makomi oyo ekokisama: « Bakabolaki bilamba na ngai kati na bango mpe babetaki zeke mpo na nzambala na ngai. » Ezali makambo wana nde basoda basalaki.
25 But there were standing by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the [wife] of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.
Tala bato oyo batelemaki pene ya ekulusu ya Yesu: Mama na Ye, ndeko mwasi ya mama na Ye, Mari oyo azalaki mwasi ya Klopasi, mpe Mari ya mboka Magidala.
26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold, thy son!
Tango Yesu amonaki ete moyekoli oyo azalaki kolinga atelemi pembeni ya mama na Ye, alobaki na mama na Ye: — Mwasi, tala mwana na yo!
27 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold, thy mother! And from that hour the disciple took her unto his own [home].
Mpe alobaki na moyekoli yango: — Tala mama na yo! Boye, kobanda na tango wana, moyekoli yango azwaki mama ya Yesu mpo ete akoma kovanda na ndako na ye.
28 After this Jesus, knowing that all things are now finished, that the scripture might be accomplished, saith, I thirst.
Sima na yango, wana Yesu asosolaki ete makambo nyonso esili kosalema, abimisaki maloba oyo mpo ete Makomi ekokisama: — Nayoki posa ya mayi.
29 There was set there a vessel full of vinegar: so they put a sponge full of the vinegar upon hyssop, and brought it to his mouth.
Lokola ezalaki na mbeki moko etonda na vino ya ngayi pembeni ya esika yango, batiaki, na songe ya nzete moko ya izope, eponze moko epola na vino yango ya ngayi mpe batombolaki yango kino na monoko ya Yesu.
30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up his spirit.
Tango kaka Yesu amelaki vino yango ya ngayi, alobaki: — Nyonso ekokisami. Bongo, akitisaki moto mpe azongisaki molimo na Ye.
31 The Jews therefore, because it was the Preparation, that the bodies should not remain on the cross upon the sabbath (for the day of that sabbath was a high [day]), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken, and [that] they might be taken away.
Lokola ezalaki mokolo ya komilengela mpo na Saba, mpe lokola Saba yango ezalaki na tina makasi, Bayuda balingaki te ete bibembe etikala na ba-ekulusu na tango ya Saba. Boye, bakendeki kosenga epai ya Pilato ete apesa mitindo ya kobuka makolo ya bibembe oyo ezalaki na likolo ya ba-ekulusu mpe ya kolongola banzoto na bango.
32 The soldiers therefore came, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him:
Basoda bayaki mpe babukaki makolo ya mibali nyonso mibale oyo babakaki na ba-ekulusu elongo na Yesu; babandaki na moko, bongo balekaki na oyo mosusu.
33 but when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:
Wana ekomaki ngala ya makolo ya Yesu, bamonaki ete Yesu amikufelaki; mpe babukaki lisusu te makolo na Ye.
34 howbeit one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and straightway there came out blood and water.
Moko kati na basoda atobolaki mopanzi ya Yesu na nzela ya likonga; mpe mbala moko, makila mpe mayi ebimaki na mopanzi yango.
35 And he that hath seen hath borne witness, and his witness is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye also may believe.
Moto oyo azali kopesa litatoli na tina na makambo oyo amonaki yango kosalema na miso na ye, mpe litatoli na ye ezali ya solo; ayebi penza ete azali koloba solo mpo ete bino mpe bondima.
36 For these things came to pass, that the scripture might be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.
Makambo nyonso wana esalemaki bongo mpo ete Makomi oyo ekokisama: « Bakobuka ata mokuwa na Ye moko te. »
37 And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.
Eteni mosusu ya Makomi elobi: « Bakotala Ye oyo batobolaki mopanzi. »
38 And after these things Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked of Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave [him] leave. He came therefore, and took away his body.
Sima na makambo wana, Jozefi, moto ya mboka Arimate, oyo azalaki moyekoli ya Yesu, kasi na nkuku mpo ete azalaki kobanga Bayuda, asengaki epai ya Pilato ndingisa ya kokitisa nzoto ya Yesu longwa na ekulusu. Pilato apesaki ye ndingisa yango, mpe Jozefi akendeki mpe akitisaki nzoto ya Yesu.
39 And there came also Nicodemus, he who at the first came to him by night, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds [weight].
Nikodemi oyo, na ebandeli, akendeki kotala Yesu na butu, ye mpe ayaki; amemaki bakilo pene tuku misato ya mafuta ya mire basangisa na aloe.
40 So they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury.
Bango mibale bakamataki nzoto ya Yesu mpe balingaki yango na maputa ya lino oyo, kati na yango, batiaki mafuta ya solo kitoko, ndenge ezalaki momesano ya Bayuda mpo na kokunda bibembe.
41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new tomb wherein was never man yet laid.
Pene ya esika oyo babakaki Yesu na ekulusu, ezalaki na elanga moko oyo, kati na yango, ezalaki na kunda moko ya sika epai wapi batikalaki nanu kokunda ata moto moko te.
42 There then because of the Jews’ Preparation (for the tomb was nigh at hand) they laid Jesus.
Lokola, mpo na Bayuda, ezalaki mokolo ya komilengela mpo na Saba, batiaki Yesu kati na kunda yango, pamba te ezalaki pene.
