Mark 15
1 Very early in the morning the chief priests met together with [the rest of] the Jewish council, [in order to decide how to accuse Jesus before the Roman governor. Their guards] tied Jesus’ hands [again]. They took him to [the house of] Pilate, [the governor, and they started to accuse him, saying] “[Jesus is claiming that he is a king!]!”
Amom torei teh vaihma bawinaw, tami kacuenaw, cakathutkungnaw, sanhedrin lawkceng bawinaw hoi karang poung lah a kapan awh teh, Jisuh hah a katek awh teh a hrawi awh teh, Pailat bawi koe a poe awh.
2 Pilate asked Jesus, “Do you [claim to be] the king of the Jews?” Jesus answered him, “You yourself have said so.”
Pailat bawi ni, nang teh Judah siangpahrang katang maw telah a pacei nah Jisuh ni, na pacei e patetlah bokheiyah, atipouh.
3 Then the chief priests claimed that Jesus had done many bad things.
Vaihma bawinaw ni yon moi a pen awh.
4 So Pilate asked him again, “Don’t you have anything to say? Listen to how many bad things they are saying that you [have done]!”
Pailat bawi ni, kam touh boehai na pathung hoeh na maw. Hettelah e kapanuekkhainaw heh khenhaw! atipouh nakunghai,
5 But [even though Jesus was not guilty], he did not say anything more. The result was that Pilate was very much surprised.
kam touh boehai pathung laipalah ao e hah Pailat bawi ni a kângairu.
6 It was the governor’s custom [each year] during the [Passover] celebration to release [one person who was in prison. He customarily released] whichever prisoner the people requested.
Hote pawi nah taminaw ni a hei awh e patetlah khobawi ni thongkabawtnaw thung dawk e buetbuet touh meng tha pouh e lah ao.
7 [At that time] there was a man called Barabbas who had been {whom [the soldiers had]} [put in prison with some other men]. Those men had murdered [some soldiers] when they rebelled [against the Roman government].
Hatnavah, dingca Barabas teh alouke tami kahawihoehnaw hoi, thong reirei a bo awh.
8 A crowd approached [Pilate] and asked him [to release someone], just like he customarily did for them [during the Passover celebration].
Taminaw niyah buetbuet touh tha mingming hanelah, a hramki awh toteh,
9 Pilate answered them, “Would you like me to release for you the [man whom you] Jewish [people say is your] king?”
Pailat bawi ni, Judah siangpahrang hah tha sak hanelah na ngai a maw, atipouh.
10 [He asked this] because he realized what the chief priests were wanting to do. They were accusing Jesus because they were jealous of him [because many people were becoming his disciples].
Bangkongmaw hottelah a pacei tetpawiteh, vaihma bawinaw ni Jisuh utnae lung hoi a thak awh, tie hah a panue dawk doeh.
11 But the chief priests urged the crowd [to request] that Pilate release Barabbas for them instead [of Jesus].
Pailat bawi ni Jisuh tha laipalah Barabas tha sak nahanelah, vaihma bawinaw ni tamihupui hah a hroecoe awh.
12 Pilate said to them again, “[If I release Barabbas], what do you want me to do with the man whom [some of] you Jews say is [your] king?”
Pailat bawi ni, Judah siangpahrang telah nangmouh ni na dei awh e hah bangtelamaw ti han, telah bout a pacei navah,
13 Then they shouted again, “[Command that your soldiers] crucify him!”
kamkhueng e taminaw pueng niyah, ahni hah thingpalam dawk het, telah a hram awh.
14 Then Pilate said to them, “Why? What crime has he committed?” But they shouted even louder, “[Command your soldiers to] crucify him!”
Pailat ni, bangkongmaw, bang e yon maw a sak vaw telah bout a pacei nah hotnaw pueng niyah, thingpalam dawk het, telah hoehoe a hram awh.
15 So, because Pilate wanted to please the crowd, he released Barabbas for them. Then, after [his soldiers] had whipped Jesus with leather straps into which they had fastened metal pieces, [Pilate told the soldiers to take him away] in order that he would be crucified {they would crucify him}.
Pailat bawi ni ahnimouh a lungroum awh nahanelah, Barabas hah a tha pouh teh, Jisuh hah a hem teh, thingpalam dawk thei sak hanlah a poe.
16 The soldiers took Jesus into the [courtyard of the] palace [where Pilate lived]. That place was the government headquarters. Then they summoned the whole (cohort/group of soldiers) [who were on duty there].
Hat toteh, ransabawi niyah Jisuh hah toeim thung vah, a ceikhai teh, ransanaw koung a kamkhueng sak teh, Jisuh hah hni paling a kâkhu sak awh.
17 [After the soldiers gathered together], they put a purple robe on Jesus. Then they placed on his head a crown that they made from [branches of] thornbushes. [They did those things in order to ridicule him by pretending that he was a king].
Pâkhinglukhung a kâmuk sak awh.
18 Then they greeted him [like they would greet a king, in order to ridicule him], saying, “Hooray for the King [who rules] the Jews!”
Judah siangpahrang, yawhawinae awmseh, telah yawhawinae lawk a dei pouh awh.
19 They repeatedly struck his head with a reed and spat on him. By kneeling down, they [pretended to honor] him.
A lû dawk bongpai hoi a hem awh. A tamthawi awh. A hmalah a khokcuengkhuem awh teh, a tabut sin awh.
20 When they had finished ridiculing him, they pulled off the purple robe. They put his own clothes on him, and then they led him outside [of the city] in order to nail him to a cross.
Hottelah a pacekpahlek awh hnukkhu, a hni paling hah bout a phawi pouh awh hnukkhu, amae khohna hah bout a khohna sak awh teh, thingpalam dawk thei hanelah a ceikhai awh.
21 [After Jesus carried his cross a short distance], a man named Simon from Cyrene [city came along]. He was the father of Alexander and Rufus. He was passing by while he was returning [home] from outside [the city. The soldiers] compelled Simon to carry the cross [for Jesus].
Alexander hoi Rufus e napa, Sairen tami Simon kahlong ka cet e hah a hmu awh navah, a man awh teh, thingpalam a hrawm sak awh.
22 They brought them both to a place that they [call] Golgotha. That name means, ‘a place [like] a skull’.
Luhru hmuen tie Golgotha hmuen koe Jisuh hah a hrawi awh teh,
23 Then they tried to give Jesus wine that was {that they} mixed with [medicine called] myrrh. [They wanted him to drink it so that he would not feel so much pain when they crucified him]. But he did not drink it.
Murah hoi kalawt e misurtui hah nei sak hanelah a poe awh ei, net ngai hoeh.
24 [Some] of the [soldiers took his clothes]. Then they nailed him to a cross. Afterwards, they divided his clothes among themselves by gambling with [something like] dice. They did this [in order to determine] which [piece of clothing] each one would get.
Thingpalam dawk a het awh hnukkhu angki hah cungpam a rayu awh teh, a kâravei awh.
25 It was nine o’clock in the morning when they crucified him.
Hottelah thingpalam dawk a pathout awh nah, amom suimilam tako doeh nueng ka phat.
26 They [attached to the cross above Jesus’ head] a sign on which it had been written {someone had written} the reason why [they were nailing him to the cross]. [But all] that it said was, “The King of the Jews.”
Ahni yonpennae teh, JUDAH SIANGPAHRANG, telah a lû lathueng a thut awh.
27 They also nailed to crosses two men who were bandits. They nailed one to a cross at the right side [of Jesus] and one to a cross at the left side [of Jesus].
Jisuh hoi cungtalah dingca kahni touh roi teh, aranglah buet touh, avoilah buet touh thingpalam dawk rei a pathout awh.
Hatnavah Cakathoung ni a dei e, ahni teh tamikayonnaw hoi mektouk sin lah a o, tie hah a kuep.
29 The people who were passing by insulted him by shaking their heads as [if here were an evil man]. They said, “Aha! You said that you would destroy the Temple and then you would build it again within three days.
Lam dawk ka cet kaawm e taminaw nihaiyah, hei, bawkim ka raphoe vaiteh hnin thum touh hoi ka cum han ka tet e,
30 [If you could do that, then] rescue yourself by coming down from the cross!”
namahoima kârungngang haw, thingpalam dawk hoi kum haw, telah a lû a kahek awh teh, pacekpahleknae lawknaw hah a dei awh.
31 The chief priests, along with the men who taught the [Jewish] laws, also [wanted to] make fun of Jesus. So they said to each other, “He [claims to have] saved others [from their sicknesses] [IRO] but he cannot save himself!
Hot patetvanlah, vaihma bawinaw, cakathutkungnaw nihaiyah, hete tami ni ayânaw teh a rungngang thai ei, amahoima teh kârungngang thai hoeh bo vaw.
32 He said, ‘I am the Messiah, I am the King who [rules the people of] Israel.’ [If his words are true], he should come down now from the cross! Then we will believe [him]!” The [two] men who were crucified beside him also insulted him.
Kaimouh ni ka hmu awh vaiteh, ka yuem awh nahan, Isarel siangpahrang, Messiah teh thingpalam dawk hoi atu roeroe kum na ei seh, telah a panuikhai awh. Bawipa hoi thingpalam dawk rei hete ni hai a pacekpahlek van.
33 At noon the whole land became dark, [and it stayed dark] until three o’clock in the afternoon.
Kanî tuengtalueng a thun hoi tangmin lahsa suimilam kathum totouh, thung talai van abuemlah kho king a hmo.
34 At three o’clock Jesus shouted loudly, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” That means, “My God, my God, why have you deserted me?”
Tangmin lahsa suimilam kathum navah Jisuh ni, Eloi Eloi Lama sabakhthani, telah puenghoi a hram. A deingainae teh, ka Cathut ka Cathut bangkongmaw kai na ceitakhai tinae doeh.
35 When some of the people who were standing there heard [the word ‘Eloi’, misunderstanding it], they said, “Listen! He is calling for [the prophet] Elijah!”
A teng vah, kangdout e tami tangawn ni a thai awh navah, Elijah doeh a kaw ati awh.
36 One of them ran and filled a sponge with sour wine. He placed it on [the tip of] a reed, and then he [held it] up for [Jesus] to suck out [the wine that was in] it. [While he was doing that, someone] said, “Wait! Let’s see whether Elijah will come to take him down [from the cross]!”
Tami buet touh ni a yawng teh, napon hah misurtui kathut dawk, a ranup teh, cakui dawk a mawp teh, Jisuh nei sak han lah, a pahni dawk a tuh pouh teh, awm nah nei, thingpalam dawk hoi kum sak hanelah, Elijah a kum hoi a kum hoeh e khenhaw sei ati awh.
37 And then, after Jesus shouted loudly, he stopped breathing [and died].
Jisuh teh kacaipounglah a hram teh, a thouk.
38 [At that moment] the [heavy thick] curtain that closed off [the most holy place in] the Temple split into two pieces from top to bottom. [That showed that ordinary people could now go into the presence of God].
Hatnavah, bawkim e lukkarei yaphni a som hoi khok koe totouh a kâphi.
39 The officer who supervised the soldiers [who nailed Jesus to the cross] was standing in front of Jesus. When he saw how Jesus died, he exclaimed, “Truly, this man was the man who was also God!”
Hottelah a thouk e hah a hmalah kangdout e ransabawi buet touh ni a hmu nah, hete tami teh Cathut e Capa katang doeh, telah a ti.
40 There were also some women there, watching these events from a distance. They had accompanied Jesus when he was in Galilee [district], and they had provided what he needed. They had come with him to Jerusalem. Among those women was Mary from Magdala [town]. There was [another] Mary, who was the mother of the younger James and of Joses. There was also Salome.
Napuinaw ni hai ahlanae koe a kangdue awh teh a khet awh.
Hote napuinaw teh, Jisuh Galilee ram ao nah, ka khenyawn e Salome, Meri Magdalin, Jem kanawhnawn e hoi Joseph e manu Meri tinaw hoi Jerusalem totouh Jisuh hnuk kâbang e alouke napuinaw hah doeh.
42 When evening was near, [a man named] Joseph from Arimathea [town came there]. He was a member of the [Jewish] council, one whom everyone respected. He was also one of those who had been waiting expectantly for the [time when] God [would send] his king to begin to rule. [He knew that, according to Jewish law, people’s bodies had to be buried] {[someone had to bury people’s bodies]} [on the day they died. He also realized that] it was the day when [people] prepared [things for] ([the Jewish day of rest/the Sabbath]), [and that the Sabbath would start when the sun set]. So he became courageous and went to Pilate and asked Pilate [to permit him to take] the body of Jesus [down from the cross and bury it immediately].
Atangtho teh sabbath hnin lah ao toung dawkvah, tangmin lah a pha toteh,
Cathut uknaeram ka ngaihawi e lah kaawm e, bari kaawm e lawkceng bawi Arimathea tami Joseph ni, taranhawi lahoi, Pailat bawi koe a cei teh, Jisuh e a ro hah a hei.
44 Pilate was surprised [when he heard that] Jesus was already dead. So he summoned the officer who was in charge of the soldiers [who crucified Jesus], and he asked him if [Jesus] had already died.
Pailat bawi ni, Jisuh tang a due e hah a panue nah, a kângairu dawkvah, ransabawi buet touh a kaw teh, a duenae a saw toung maw, telah a pacei.
45 When the officer told [Pilate that Jesus was dead], Pilate allowed Joseph [to take away] the body.
Ransabawi ni, a due toe, atipouh e a thai dawkvah, Jisuh ro hah la hanelah kâ a poe.
46 After Joseph bought a linen cloth, he [and others] took [Jesus’ body down from the cross]. They wrapped it in the linen cloth and laid it in a tomb that [previously] had been dug out of the rock [cliff]. Then they rolled a [huge flat] stone in front of the entrance to the tomb.
Hatdawkvah, Joseph ni ro hah a rasu teh, ama ni a ran e lukkarei hoi a kayo teh, talung tangkom dawk a thak teh, lungphenpui hoi tangkom takhang hah a teng.
47 Mary [from] Magdala and Mary the mother of Joses were watching where Jesus’ [body] was placed {where they placed Jesus’ [body]}.
Meri Magdalin, Joseph manu Meri tinaw ni ro pakawpnae hmuen hah a khet awh.
