John 19
1 Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.
Popelapo Pilato walamumanta Yesu ne kumukwipisha.
2 And the soldiers plaited a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and arrayed him in a purple garment;
Lino bashilikali balabamba mushini wa myunga nekumufwalika kumutwi. Kayi balamufwalika mwinjila wamushobo wabulemu ufubeluka,
3 and they came unto him, and said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they struck him with their hands.
balikabesa kulyendiye nkabambeti, “Mitende, mobami ba Bayuda!” Pacindici balatatika kumuma.
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 walapula pansa kayi nekubambila Bayuda, “Kamubonani ndamulete kuli njamwe, neco mwinshibe kwambeti ndiya kumucanapo ne mulandu uli wonse.”
5 Jesus therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. And [Pilate] saith unto them, Behold, the man!
Popelapo Yesu walapula nkali afwala mushini wa myunga kumutwi ne cakufwala cifubeluka cisa, Pilato walambeti, “Uyu muntusa.”
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.
Bamakulene beshimilumbo nebamalonda ba mu Nga'nda ya Lesa basa mpobalabona Yesu, balolobesheti, “Mupopeni! Mupopeni!” Pilato walambeti, “Mumanteni mwenka mwenga mumupope pakwinga ame ndiya kumucanapo nemulandu.”
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.
Bantu balambeti, “Afwe tukute mulawo, nomba twakonka mulawo wetu uyu welela kufwa, pakwinga walikwambeti, ‘Njame Mwana wa Lesa.’”
8 When Pilate therefore heard this saying, he was the more afraid;
Lino Pilato mpalanyumfwa maswi awa, walanyumfwa buyowa kwine.
9 and he entered into the palace again, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.
Nomba walengila kayi munga'nda nekwipusha Yesu, “Nomba obe kwenu nikupeyo?” Nsombi Yesu nkalakumbula sobwe.
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?
Kayi Pilato walamwipusheti, “Nicani nkolankumbulunga? Sena nkocinsheti nkute ngofu sha kukusungulula nekukupopa?”
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 walambeti, “Lesa, abula kumupa ngofu nemuliya kwinsapo ciliconse palinjame. Weco uyo wanjaba kuli njamwe ukute bwipishi bunene.”
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.
Mpwalanyumfwa maswi awa, Pilato walayandishisha kwambeti amusungulule Yesu. Nsombi Bayuda balolobesha, mwamusungulula muntuyu ekwambeti nkamwekatana ne mwami wa kuLoma. Uliyense lalyambanga kuba mwami, ekwambeti nimulwani wamwami wa ku Loma.
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.
Pilato mpwalanyumfweco, walamupulisha Yesu, nekwikala pacipuna cakomboloshelapo milandu, pabusena bwalikukwiweti, “Lubansa lwa mabwe.” Mu cihebeli ukute kukwiweti, 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!
Nomba bwalikuba busuba bwakulibambila sha Pasika, kayi cindi calikuba muma 12 koloko munshi. Pilato walambila Bayuda, “Uyu Mwami wenu.”
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.
Nomba nabo balolobesha nekwambeti, “Mushineni! Mushineni! Kapopwani!” Pilato walabepusheti, “Sena mpope Mwami wenu?” Bamakulene beshimilumbo balakumbuleti, “Tuliyawa Mwami naumbi sobwe, nsombi Mwami wa ku Loma enka.”
16 Then therefore he delivered him unto them to be crucified.
Popelapo Pilato walamutwala Yesu kulyendibo kwambeti bamupope. kufumapo Yesu walaba mumakasa abo.
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:
Bashilikali balamumantisha Yesu lusanda lwakendi, balapula nendi mulubansa nekuya kumusena walikukwiweti. “Cifupa ca mutwi” Mu Cihebeli bakute kwambeti “Gologota.”
18 where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.
Kopeloko balamupopa palusanda. Kayi balapopa bantu bambi babili, umbi kulikasa lyalulyo naumbi kulikasa lya kucipiko, Yesu nendi walikuba pakati.
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 walalemba cishibisho pelu palusanda. Walalembeti, “Yesu wa kuNasaleti, Mwami wa 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.
Mpwalapopela Yesu palikuba pepi neku Yelusalemu. Neco Bayuda bangi balikababelengapo. Cishibisho ici calikuba calembwa mumishobo itatu, Cihebeli ne Cilatini kayi ne Cigiliki.
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.
Bamakulene ba beshimilumbo ba Bayuda balambila Pilato, “Kamutalembeti, Mwami wa Bayuda sobwe. Nsombi mwine ewalikulyambeti eMwami wa Bayuda.”
22 Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.
Nomba Pilato walambeti, “Mbyondalembe, nibibe copeleco mbuli ncondalembe.”
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.
Bashilikali basa mpwobalapopa Yesu, balamanta bayakufwala byakendi nekutwamunamo tumpansha tuna, mushilikali uliyense walamanta kampansha kakendi. Balamanta kayi nemwinjila wakendi uyo walikuba watungwa necikwisa cimo kayi nkawalikuba ne lupeto.
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.
Lino bashilikali abo balambilaneti, “Katutautwamuna sobwe, nsombi twinse nsolo kwambeti twinshibe na nibani eshi aumante.” Byalenshika mushoboyo kwambeti bikwanishiwe balambwa mumabala, “Balayabana byakufwala byakame, kayi mwinjila wakame balawinshila nsolo.” Weco ncobalensa bashilikali basa.
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.
Nomba pepi ne lusanda palemana banyina, ne mukwabo banyina, kayi palikuba Maliya mukashendi klopa ne Mariya wa ku magadalena.
26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold, thy son!
Lino Yesu mpalabona banyina ne shikwiya usa ngwalikusuna nkabalibemana pepi, walambila banyina eti, “Ma mwanenu uno.”
27 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold, thy mother! And from that hour the disciple took her unto his own [home].
Walambila kayi shikwiya usa eti, “Banyoko aba.” Lino kufumina popelapo shikwiya usa walabamanta batukashi abo ne kutatika kubasunga cena kwakendi.
28 After this Jesus, knowing that all things are now finished, that the scripture might be accomplished, saith, I thirst.
Yesu walenshiba kwambeti lino byonse bilakwanilishiwa. Lino kwambeti bikwanilishiwe byonse byalambwa mumabala, nendi walambeti “Nkute inyotwa.”
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.
Popelapo palikuba nsupa yesula waini wasasa. Bashilikali basa balasabika cisambo mu waini wasasa usa, nekucisomeka kukatondo ka hisopi nekukashikisha pamulomo pakendi.
30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up his spirit.
Yesu mpalasupita waini wasasa walambeti, “Byonse bilakwanilishiwa.” Lino walakotama mutwi nekufwa.
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.
Bwalikuba busuba bwakulibambila sha Pasika. Bamakulene ba Bayuda nkabali kwandeti bitumbi ibyo bibe pa lusanda pa busuba bwa Sabata, pakwinga busuba bwa Sabata ubo bwalikuba bunene. Weco balamusenga Pilato kwambeti batyokole myendo ya bantu basa balikuba bapopwa nekubafunya.
32 The soldiers therefore came, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him:
Lino bashilikali balesa, nekutyokola umo pa babili basa balapopwa pamo ne Yesu. Balensa copeleco ne kumunendi usa.
33 but when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:
Nsombi mpobalashika pali Yesu, pakubona kwambeti lafu kendi, neco baliya kutyokola myendo yakendi.
34 howbeit one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and straightway there came out blood and water.
Nsombi umo wa bashilikali basa walamuyasa mumbafu ne lifumo, nomba mwalafuma milopa ne menshi.
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.
Uyo walabona bintu ibi endiye labinshilinga bukamboni, kwambeti ne njamwe mushome. Bukamboni bwakendi nibwancine ncine, kayi mwine ucinshi kwambeti mbyalambanga nibyakubinga.
36 For these things came to pass, that the scripture might be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.
Ibi byalenshika kwambeti byalambwa mumabala bikwanilishiwe, mabala akwambeti, “Nteshi bakatyokole lifupa lyakendi nambi limo.”
37 And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.
Kayi kuli mabala nambi alambangeti, “Bantu nibakamwebele uyo ngobalayasa.”
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.
Panyuma pakendi Yosefe wa ku Arimatea walasenga Pilato kwambeti amusuminishe kufunya citumbi ca Yesu. Yosefe walikuba weshikwiya wa Yesu, nsombi mwakusolama, pakwinga balikutina bamakulene ba Bayuda. Lino Pilato walamusuminisha, nendi walafunya citumbi ico.
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].
Kwalesa kayi nikodemasi, usa walaya kuli Yesu mashiku pakutatika pasa. Nendi walaleta mafuta anunkila a mule asankanishiwa ne aloe, alikuba alema makilogilamu akwana 32.
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.
Bantu babili aba balamanta mubili wa Yesu nekupomba mucikwisa caswepa ne mafuta anunkila cena, balakonka mwambo wa Bayuda.
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.
Uko Yesu nkwalapopwa kwalikuba libala. Nomba mulibala umo mwalikuba cumbwe calino lino, citana cibikwamo muntu.
42 There then because of the Jews’ Preparation (for the tomb was nigh at hand) they laid Jesus.
Lino bwalikuba busuba bwa kulibambila kwa Bayuda kusekelela Pasika, Nomba manda ayo alikuba pepi, balabika Yesu mopelomo.
