Luke 22
1 It was now almost time to celebrate the festival of Unleavened Bread, which [began with] the Passover festival.
Msambu gwa mabumunda gachechema ndiri, yagushemwa Pasaka guweri sambira gusoka.
2 The chief priests and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws were seeking a way to kill Jesus. [But they wanted to do it secretly], because they were afraid that if [they did not do] it secretly, the people [might riot].
Watambika wakulu na wafunda wa Malagaliru waweriti wankusakula njira ya kumlaga Yesu kwa bada, toziya wawatiriti wantu.
3 Then [even though] Judas, who was called [the man from] Kerioth [village], was one of the twelve [disciples], Satan entered him.
Shetani kamwingiriti Yuda, yawamshema Isikariyoti, yumu gwa wantumini walii lilongu na wawili.
4 Judas went and conferred with the chief priests and the officers of the Temple guards. He discussed with them how he could enable them to seize [Jesus].
Su Yuda kagenditi na kuyowera na Watambika wakulu na walolera wa numba nkulu ya Mlungu ntambu ya kumgalambuka Yesu kwawomberi.
5 They were pleased [that he wanted to do that]. They offered to give him money [for doing it].
Womberi weniti manemu na wayoweriti na yomberi wamlipi mpiya.
6 So he agreed, [and they gave him the money]. Then he tried to find an opportunity to enable them to seize [Jesus] when there was no crowd around him.
Yuda kajimiliti, na kaweriti kankusakula lupenyu luherepa lwa kumlaviya Yesu kwawomberi pota na lipinga lya wantu kuvimana.
7 Then the day during the [first part of the week-long festival] of Unleavened Bread came, [the day] when [the] lambs [for the] Passover [celebration] had to be killed.
Lishaka lisokiti lya msambu gwa mabumunda gachechema ndiri, wakondolu wa shiboga sha Pasaka pawawadumuliti.
8 So Jesus said to Peter and John, “Go and prepare the meal for the Passover [celebration].”
Yesu kawatumiti Peteru na Yohani, kawagambira, “Mgendi mwakatunyawili shiboga sha Pasaka tupati kuliya.”
9 They replied to him, “Where do you [(sg)] want us to prepare it?”
Womberi wamkosiyiti, “Gufira twakanyawi koshi?”
10 He said to the [two of] them, “Listen carefully. When you [two] enter the city, a man who is carrying a [large] jar of water will meet you. Follow him. [When] he enters [a house],
Yesu kawankula, “Pamgenda mulushi, hamliwoni na mpalu yakalitwika shiwiga sha mashi. Mmufati mpaka mnumba pakayingira,
11 tell the owner of the house, ‘[Our] teacher says [that we(exc) should] ask [you(sg) to please] show [us] the room that [he arranged with you] where he can eat the Passover [meal] with [us], his disciples [RHQ].’
mumgambiri mweni kana numba, ‘mfunda kankukosiya, shakoshi shumbakati mweni handiyi Pasaka pamuhera na wafundwa wangu?’
12 He will show you a large room that is on the upper [floor of the house]. It will be all set up [for a meal]. Prepare the meal for us there.”
Yomberi hakawalanguziyi numbakati nkulu mugorofa wayiherepeziya, munyawi amu.”
13 So [the two disciples] went [into the city]. They found everything to be just like [Jesus] had told them. So they prepared [the meal for] the Passover [celebration there].
Wagenditi na woniti kila shintu sawa ntambu Yesu yakawagambiriti, wanyawa shiboga sha Pasaka.
14 When it was time [MTY] [to eat the Passover meal], Jesus [came and] sat down with the [twelve] apostles.
Shipindi pashisokiti, Yesu kalikaliti kuliya shiboga pamuhera na wantumintumi wakuwi.
15 He said to them, “I have greatly desired to eat this Passover [meal] with you before I suffer [and die].
Kawagambira, “Nfira nentu kuliya Pasaka ayi pamuhera na mwenga pamberi pa kundabisiya!
16 I want you to know that I will not eat [the Passover meal] again until all those whose lives God rules completely realize [what it represents].”
Nukugambirani ayi ndo Pasaka ya upeleru kuliya na mwenga mpaka palii payiwera kala mu Ufalumi wa Mlungu.”
17 Then he took a cup [of wine] and thanked [God for it]. Then he said, “Take this, and each of you drink some of it.
Shakapanu Yesu katola shikombi, kalonga mayagashii Mlungu, kalonga, “Muwanki shikombi ashi na mlandiri woseri.
18 I want you to know that [from now on] I will not drink wine until God makes me king.”
Nukugambirani, kwanjira vinu hanandi kayi ndiri divayi ayi mpaka Ufalumi wa Mlungu pawiza.”
19 Then he took some bread and thanked God for it. He broke it [into pieces] and gave it to them [to eat]. He said, “This [bread represents] my body, which [I] am about to sacrifice for you. Keep on [eating bread] this way [regularly] to remember what I [have done for you].”
Shakapanu katoliti libumunda, kalonga mayagashii Mlungu, kalimega na kawapanana womberi pakalonga, “Ayi ndo nshimba ya neni yailaviwa kwajili ya mwenga. Mtendi hangu kwa kunhola neni.”
20 Similarly, after [they had eaten] the meal, he took [another] cup [of wine]. He said, “[The wine in] [MTY] this cup [represents] my blood, which will soon flow [from my body when I die]. [With] this blood [I will sign] the new agreement [that God is making with] you.
Viraa avi, kawapanana shikombi sha divayi pawaliyiti kala shiboga, pakalonga, “Lutekeru alu ndo lipatanu lya syayi lyalilaviyitwi kwa mwazi gwangu wagwitika toziya ya mwenga
21 But [note that] the one [SYN] who will enable my enemies to seize me is eating right here with me!
“Mloli! Ulii yakang'alambuka ka palaa kankuliya pamuhera naneni.
22 [It is certain that I], the one who came from heaven, will die, because that is what [God] has planned. But there will be terrible punishment for the man who will (betray me/enable my enemies to seize me)!”
Mwana gwa Muntu hakahowi ntambu yakafiriti Mlungu, kumbiti shodi kwa muntu yakamgalambuka!”
23 Then they began to ask one another, “Which of us would do such a thing?”
Palaa wanjiti kulikosiya weni, su gaa pakati petu hakatendi shitwatila ashi.
24 [The apostles] began to argue among themselves, saying, “Which one of us [will be] the greatest [when Jesus becomes king]?”
Kulawiriti likakatala pakati pa wantumintumi walii gaa ndo hakawezi kuwera mkulu pakati pawu.
25 So Jesus said to them, “The kings of the non-Jews [enjoy] showing that they are powerful. [Yet] they give [themselves] the title, ‘ones who help the people.’
Yesu kawagambira, “Wafalumi wa maisi yawawera ndiri Wayawudi yawakolamlima wantu wawu kwa makakala, nawomberi pawawashema ‘Waganja wa wantu.’
26 But you should not be like them! Instead, those who [want God to consider them] the greatest should [act as though they] were the youngest, [since the youngest are expected to serve the older ones]. Whoever is a leader should be one who serves [the others].
Kumbiti nayiwera hangu pakati penu, kumbiti ulii yakaweriti mkulu pakati penu ndo kalazima kaweri mdidiki gwa woseri, na yakawera mlongoziya ndo kaweri ndundami.
27 Keep in mind who is the most important one [RHQ]. It is certainly the one who [just sits] at the table, not [RHQ] those who serve [the meal]. But I, [your leader], have been [an example for you] by serving you [while I have been] among you.
Gaa yakaweriti mkulu, ulii yakalikala pasi kuliya shiboga, ama ulii yakatumika? Imanikana ulii yakalikala pameza kuliya shiboga! Kumbiti neni ndo nandundami pakati penu.
28 You are the ones who have stayed with me during all my troubles.
“Mwenga mlikala pamuwera na neni shipindi shoseri sha kujerwa kwangu,
29 So now, just like my Father has appointed me to rule as a king, I am appointing you
gambira Tati gwangu ntambu yakanupiti ukolamlima, su naneni hanuwapanani ntambu ira ayi.
30 so that you can sit and eat [and rule] [MET] with me when I become king. You will sit on thrones to judge the people of the twelve tribes of Israel.”
Hamlii na kulanda pameza pangu mu Utuwa wangu na hamulikali muvibanta vya ufalumi kugatoza makabila lilongu na mawili ga Israeli.
31 “Simon, Simon, listen! Satan has asked [God to let him test you, and God has permitted him to do it. Satan wants to cause you to suffer distress] (OR, [distress you]) [so that you will not believe/trust in me any more/longer. He wants to shake you, just like a man shakes wheat in a sieve to sift it] [MET].
“Simoni, Simoni! Gupikaniri! Shetani kapatiti ruusa ya kuwajera mwenga mawoseri, kuvilaviya viherepa kulawa muvidoda, gambira mkulima pakapeta nganu kulawa mumakapi.
32 But I have prayed for you, Simon, that you will not completely stop believing in me. So when you [(sg)] restore your relationship with me, help your fellow apostles [to trust in me more]!”
Kumbiti neni nankuluwira kwa Mlungu, Simoni njimiru yaku nayidodomera. Nagwenga pagumbuyira, guwatangi wayagu.”
33 Peter said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you [(sg)] if they put you in prison, or even to die with you!”
Peteru kamwankula, “Mtuwa, neni ng'enda kala pamuhera na gwenga mushibetubetu, na ata kuhowa pamuhera na gwenga.”
34 Jesus replied, “Peter, I want you [(sg)] to know that tonight, before the rooster crows, you will say three times that you do not know me!”
Yesu kamuwankula, “Nukugambira gwenga Peteru, pamberi njogolu hakeniwiki leru hagunemi mala ndatu.”
35 Then [Jesus] asked all of them, “After I sent you out [to other villages, and you went] without taking any money or a [traveling] bag or [extra] sandals, you did not lack anything, did you?” They replied, “[That’s right], [we(exc) did] not [lack] anything.”
Shakapanu Yesu kawakosiyiti wantumintumi wakuwi, “Shipindi shanuwatumiti pota na mpiya, na muhaku ama vilwatu, mpungukiwitwi shintu shoseri?” Wamwankula, “Ndala.”
36 Then, [to show them that now many people would oppose them], (OR, [to show them that they needed to be prepared to protect themselves], ) he said to them, “Now [things will be different. So] whoever among you has some money should take it with him. Likewise, he should take a carrying bag. Whoever does not have a sword should sell his coat and buy a sword.
Yesu kawagambira, “kumbiti vinu, ulii yakawera na muhaku gwa mpiya kagutoli, yakahera na upanga, kawuzi nguwu yakuwi na kahemeri upanga umu.”
37 Because, I now tell you, [something must happen to me to fulfill these words that a prophet] wrote: ‘He was treated {They treated him} as [though he were] a criminal.’ Do not forget that everything that is {that they have} written about me [in the Scriptures] must be fulfilled.”
“Toziya nukugambirani, Malembu Mananagala galembwa, ‘Wamtuliti shipinga shimuwera pamuhera na wavidoda,’ ndo mpaka gatimii kwa neni, toziya shawalemba kuusu neni shankwiza kuwera nakaka.”
38 [One of] the disciples said, “Lord, look! We [(exc)] have two swords!” [Realizing that they did not understand the meaning of what he said], he replied to them, “That is enough [talk about swords]”!
Wantumintumi walonga, “Guloli Mtuwa! Panu kwana mapanga mawili!” Yesu kalonga, “Ayi itosha!”
39 As [Jesus] left [the city], he went, as he usually did, to Olive [Tree] Hill. His disciples went with him.
Yesu kalawa mulushi na kugenda, ntambu yaiweriti ntambu yakuwi, kagenda mpaka kulugongu lwa mizeyituni, wafundwa wakuwi wamfata.
40 When he came to the place [where he often spent the night], he said to them, “Pray that [God will help you] whenever something tempts you.”
Pakasokiti kuliya kawagambiriti, “Mluwi Mlungu namwingira mukujerwa.”
41 Then he went from them a distance of about 30 meters/yards. (OR, as far as someone can throw a stone.) He knelt and prayed,
Shakapanu kawaleka kagenda utali wa muntu kuweza kuguma libuwi, kasuntama na kumluwa Mlungu.
42 “[My] Father, if you are willing [to do it], force me [to have to undergo] these terrible things that [are about to happen to me] [MTY]. But do not do what I want. Instead, do what you want.”
Kalonga, “Tati pagufira, guyiwusiyi nkata ayi ya ndabiku kwa neni. Ata hangu, mafiliru gaku gafiliziwi, pota ganeni ndiri, ira gutendi ntambu yagufira gumweni.”
43 Then an angel from heaven appeared to Jesus and caused him to become stronger.
Palaa wamahoka wa Mlungu kulawa kumpindi wamlawira, su wamtanga.
44 He was greatly distressed. So he prayed more earnestly. His sweat fell down on the ground as though it was large drops of blood.
Pakaweriti mu kutama nentu, kamluwiti Mlungu na livuki limlawiti gambira matoni ga mwazi, gaturukiti pasi.
45 When he got up from praying, he returned to his disciples. He found that they were sleeping. They were exhausted because they were very sorrowful.
Pakaluwiti kala, kawawuyiriti wafundwa wakuwi, kawawoniti wagonja mpota, womberi waweriti na hinginiku.
46 He [woke them and] said to them, “(I am disappointed that you are sleeping!/Why are you sleeping?) [RHQ] Get up! Pray that [God will help you] whenever you are tempted {when something [like this] tempts you}!”
Kawagambira, “Iwera ashi mgonja? Mwimuki na mluwi, namwingira mukujerwa.”
47 While [Jesus] was still speaking, a crowd [came to him]. Judas, [even though he was] one of the twelve [disciples], was leading them. He came close to Jesus and kissed him [on the cheek as if to greet him, but was really a signal to those with him which one was Jesus].
Yesu pakaweriti kankali kankuyowera, lipinga lya wantu liza palilongoziwa na Yuda, yumu gwa walii wafundwa lilongu na wawili. Yuda kamgenderiti Yesu na kumnonera.
48 Jesus said to him, “Judas, (I am disappointed that it is by kissing me that you are enabling [my enemies] to seize [me], the one who came from heaven!/is it by kissing me [as though you loved me] that you are enabling [my enemies] to seize [me], the one who came from heaven?) [RHQ]”
Yesu kamgambira, “Yuda! Hashi gwankumgalambuka Mwana gwa Muntu kwa kumnona?”
49 When the [disciples] who were around Jesus realized what was going to happen, they said, “Lord, shall we [(exc)] strike [them] with our swords?”
Wantumini yawaweriti pamuhera na Yesu pawagawoniti galii gagalawira, womberi wakosiya, “Mtuwa tutumii mapanga getu?”
50 One of his [drew his sword and] struck the servant of the high priest [to kill him, but only] cut off his right ear.
Na yumu gwawu kamkomiti upanga ntumintumi gwa Mtambika Mkulu na kamdumula likutu lyakuwi lya kumliwu.
51 But Jesus said, “Do not [do] any more of that!” He touched the [servant’s] ear and healed him.
Palaa, Yesu kalonga, “Ayi itosha!” Kalishinkula likutu lya muntu ayu, kamuponiziya.
52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests, the officers of the Temple guards, and the [Jewish] elders who had come to [seize] him, “(It is ridiculous that you have come [here] with swords and clubs to capture [MTY] me, as [if I were] a bandit!/Why have you come here with swords and clubs to capture [MTY] me, as if I were a bandit?) [RHQ] Day after day [I was with you] in the Temple [courtyard], [and] you did not seize me! But this is the time [MTY] when [God is allowing] you [to do what you want]. It is also the time [MTY] when God is allowing [Satan, who rules] [MTY] [in] the darkness, [to do what he wants].”
Shakapanu Yesu kawagambira watambika wakulu, na wakulu wawalolera wa Numba nkulu ya Mlungu na wazewi wawiziti kumubata, “Hashi, mwiza na mapanga na vindonga kumbata gambira neni na mpoka?
Kila lishaka panweriti pamuhera na mwenga Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu mumbata ndiri. Kumbiti ashi ndo shipindi shenu asa, ndo shipindi sha ukolamlima wa luwindu.”
54 They seized [Jesus] and led him away. They brought him to the high priest’s house. Peter followed [them] at a distance.
Wamubatiti Yesu na kugenda nayu ukaya kwa Mtambika Mkulu, na Peteru kaweriti kankumfata kwa kutali.
55 They kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together. Peter sat among them.
Motu waguwashiti pakati pa uwa, na Peteru kaweriti pamuhera na woseri weni waweriti walikala pamuhera pawayoterata motu.
56 As the light [from the fire] shone [on his face, a] female servant saw him and looked intently at him. She said, “This man was also with [the man whom they have arrested]!”
Ntumintumi yumu mdala pakamwoniti Peteru kalivaga pakwegera na motu, kamjodoleriti masu na kalonga, “Muntu ayu kaweriti vira pamuhera na Yesu!”
57 But Peter denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not know him!”
Kumbiti Peteru kaberiti pakalonga, “Ndala gwenga, neni nummana ndiri!”
58 A little later someone else saw Peter and said, “You [(sg)] also are one of those who [were with] the man [they arrested]!” But Peter said, “Man, I am not [one of them]!”
Shakapanu hera, muntu yumonga kamwona Peteru na kalonga, “Gwenga gwa yumu gwawu!” Kumbiti Peteru kawankula, “Mtuwa gwenga, neni ndiri!”
59 About an hour later someone else said emphatically [about Peter], “[The way] that this man [speaks shows that he] is from Galilee [district]. Certainly this man was also with the man whom [they arrested, who is from Galilee]!”
Na lisaa limu pamberi, muntu yumonga kamsisitiza pakatakula, “Nakaka ayu kaweriti pamuhera na Yesu, toziya ayu ndo Mgalilaya vira!”
60 But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you [(sg)] are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.
Peteru kamwankula, “Mtuwa gwenga, nuvimana ndiri ntambu yagutakula!” Palaa palii, pakaweriti kankali kankuyowera, njogolu kawika.
61 The Lord [Jesus] turned around and looked right at Peter. Then Peter remembered what the Lord had said to him, “This night, before the rooster crows, you [(sg)] will deny three times [that you know] me.”
Mtuwa kagalambuka na kumlola Peteru, na Peteru kalihola galii Mtuwa gakamgambiriti, “Leru pamberi njogolu keniwika hagunemi mala ntatu.”
62 And Peter went out [of the courtyard] and cried very sorrowfully.
Peteru kawukiti kugenda kunja, na kalila nentu.
63 The men who were guarding Jesus made fun of him and beat him.
Wantu walii waweriti wankumlolera Yesu, wamkomiti na kumhigira.
64 They put a blindfold on him and [beat him again. Then] they said to him, “[Because you(sg) say] [IRO] that you are a prophet, [prove it by] telling us who it was that struck you!”
Wamtawiti shitambala kusheni, na wankumkosiya, “Gutungi! Gani yakakukomiti?”
65 They said many other evil things about him, insulting him.
Wamlavilira visoweru vivuwa vya kumwigilanga.
66 At dawn [the next morning], many of the [Jewish] leaders gathered together. The group included the chief priests and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws. They took Jesus to the Jewish Council. There the men of the Council said to him,
Lishaka lyalifatiti Yesu wamjegiti mushizyungu. Pashizyungu kuweriti na wazewi na watambika wakulu na wafunda wa malagaliru, womberi waliwoniti pamuhera na Yesu wamjegiti kulongolu kwawu.
67 “If you [(sg)] are the Messiah, tell us!” But he replied, “If I tell you that, you will not believe me.
Nawomberi wamgambira, “Gutugambiri! Hashi, gwenga gwa Kristu?” Su Yesu kawagambira, “Ata panuwagambira, hapeni mnjimiri,
68 If I ask you [what you think about the Messiah], you will not answer me.
handa panuwakosiya hapeni mnankuli.
69 But some day you will see [me], the one who came from heaven, sitting next to almighty God and ruling [MTY]!”
Kwanjira vinu, Mwana gwa Muntu hakalivagi uwega wa kumliwu wa Mlungu kana makakala goseri.”
70 Then they all said, “If that is so, are [you(sg) saying that] you are (the Son of God/the Man who is also God)?” He said to them, “[Yes], it is just like you say [MTY].”
Woseri walonga, “Ndo kulonga gwenga gwa Mwana gwa Mlungu?” Nayomberi kawankula, “Mwenga mtakula handa ndo Neni.”
71 Then they said [to each other], “(We [(inc)] certainly do not need anyone else to testify [against him]!/Why should we ask for any more people to testify [against him]?) [RHQ]” We ourselves have heard him say [MTY] [that he is equal with God]!
Nawomberi walonga, “Tufira ndiri kayi ukapitawu umonga? Twaweni tupikanira shilii shakatakuliti.”
