John 18
1 When Jesus had said this, he went out with his disciples and crossed the brook Kedron to a place where there was a garden, into which he and his disciples went.
Yesuusi woossaa onggidaappe guye ba tamaaretara Qediroona zanggaara pinnidi, he bessan de7iya atakilttiya giddo gelidosona.
2 The place was well known to Judas, the betrayer, for Jesus and his disciples had often met there.
Yesuusi ubba wode ba tamaaretara yan shiiqiya gisho Yesuusa aathi immida Yihudi he bessaa erees.
3 So Judas, who had obtained the soldiers of the Roman garrison, and some police-officers from the Chief Priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.
Hessa gisho, Yihudi paanose, xomppe, tooranne gonddalle oykkida daro wotaaddareta, kahine halaqatinne Farisaaweti kiittida Xoossa Keetha naagiya pooliseta kaalethi ekkidi, he bessaa bis.
4 Jesus, aware of all that was coming upon him, went to meet them, and said to them: “For whom are you looking?”
Yesuusi bana gakkana haniyabaa ubbaa eridi, gaxa keyidi, “Oona koyeetii?” yaagis.
5 “Jesus of Nazareth,” was their answer. “I am he,” said Jesus. (Judas, the betrayer, was also standing with them.)
Entti zaaridi, “Naazirete Yesuusa koyoos” yaagidosona. I zaaridi, “Taani Yesuusa” yaagis. Yesuusa aathi immida Yihudi yan enttara eqqis.
6 When Jesus said ‘I am he,’ they drew back and fell to the ground.
I, “Taani Yesuusa” gida wode entti guye shiiqidi, sa7an kunddidosona.
7 So he again asked for whom they were looking, and they answered: “Jesus of Nazareth.”
Yesuusi qassika, “Oona koyeetii?” yaagidi oychchis. Entti, “Naazirete Yesuusa koyoos” yaagidosona.
8 “I have already told you that I am he,” replied Jesus, “so, if it is for me that you are looking, let these men go.”
I zaaridi, “Taani Yesuusa gideyssa hinttew odas. Hiza, hintte tana koyabaa gidikko hayssata yeddite” yaagis.
9 This was in fulfilment of his words — ‘Of those whom thou hast given me I have not lost one.’
I hessa giday, “Aawaw, neeni taw immidayssatappe hari attoshin issuwaka dhayssabiikke” gidayssi polettana melassa.
10 At this, Simon Peter, who had a sword with him, drew it, and struck the High Priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus.
Simoon Phexiroosas bisoy de7ees. I he bisuwa shoddidi kahine halaqaa aylliyas ushachcha haytha shocidi, qanxi yeggis. He aylliya sunthay Malkkoosa.
11 But Jesus said to Peter: “Sheathe your sword. Shall I not drink the cup which the Father has given me?”
Yesuusi Phexiroosakko, “Ne bisuwa shoohuwan zaara. Ta Aaway taw immida xuu7appe taani uyonnabaa new daanii?” yaagis.
12 So the soldiers of the garrison, with their Commanding Officer and the Jewish police, arrested Jesus and bound him,
Roome wotaaddaretinne entta halaqay Xoossa Keetha naagiya poolisetara issife Yesuusa oykkidi qachchidosona.
13 and took him first of all to Annas. Annas was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was High Priest that year.
Koyro Yesuusa Haannako efidosona. Haanni he laythi kahine halaqa gidiya Qayyaafa bollo.
14 It was Caiaphas who had counselled the Jews, that it was best that one man should die for the people.
Qayyaafi, “Asa ubbaa gisho, issi asi hayqqiko lo77o” gidi kase Ayhudeta zoridayssa.
15 Meanwhile Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. That disciple, being well-known to the High Priest, went with Jesus into the High Priest’s court-yard,
Simoon Phexiroosinne hara issi tamaarey Yesuusa kaallidi bidosona. Kahine halaqay he hara tamaariya loythi erees. Hessa gisho, I Yesuusara kahine halaqaa zabbaa gelis.
16 while Peter stood outside by the door. Presently the other disciple — the one well-known to the High Priest — went out and spoke to the portress, and brought Peter in.
Shin Phexiroosi karera dirssaa penggen eqqis. Kahine halaqay eriya hara tamaarey kare keyidi, penggiya naagiya na7ees odidi, Phexiroosa gaathi gelssis.
17 So the maidservant said to Peter: “Are not you also one of this man’s disciples?” “No, I am not,” he said.
Penggiya naagiya na7iya Phexiroosakko, “Neeni, addiya tamaaretappe issuwa gidikkii?” yaagasu. Phexiroosi zaaridi, “Akkay, taani gidikke” yaagis.
18 The servants and police-officers were standing round a charcoal fire (which they had made because it was cold), and were warming themselves. Peter, too, was with them, standing and warming himself.
Sa7ay meeggiya gisho, aylletinne naageyssati xiifa tama eethidi, yuuyi aadhdhi eqqidi kayosona. Phexiroosikka enttara eqqidi tama kayees.
19 The High Priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and about his teaching.
Kahine halaqay Yesuusa, iya tamaaretabaanne iya timirttiyabaa oychchis.
20 “For my part,” answered Jesus, “I have spoken to all the world openly. I always taught in some Synagogue, or in the Temple Courts, places where all the Jews assemble, and I never spoke of anything in secret.
Yesuusi zaaridi, “Taani asa ubbaas qonccen odas. Taani Ayhude ubbay shiiqiya Ayhude Woosa Keethaninne Xoossa Keethan ubba wode tamaarssas. Geeman aykkoka odabiikke.
21 Why question me? Question those who have listened to me as to what I have spoken about to them. They must know what I said.”
Yaatin, neeni tana ays oychchay? Ta odishin si7ida asaa oychcha. He asay taani odididayssa eroosona” yaagis.
22 When Jesus said this, one of the police-officers, who was standing near, gave him a blow with his hand. “Do you answer the High Priest like that?” he exclaimed.
Yesuusi hessa gida wode, he bessan eqqida wotaaddaretappe issoy Yesuusa baqqidi, “Kahine halaqaa bolla hayssada zaaray?” yaagis.
23 “If I said anything wrong, give evidence about it,” replied Jesus; “but if not, why do you strike me?”
Yesuusi zaaridi, “Taani iitabaa odidabaa gidikko hayssan de7iya asa ubbaa sinthan oda. Shin taani tuma odidabaa gidikko tana ays baqqay?” yaagis.
24 Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas the High Priest.
Hessa gisho, Haanni, Yesuusi qashettida mela kahine halaqaa Qayyaafakko yeddis.
25 Meanwhile Simon Peter was standing there, warming himself; so they said to him: “Are not you also one of his disciples?” Peter denied it. “No, I am not,” he said.
Phexiroosi yan eqqidi, tama kayishin, harati iyaakko, “Neeni ha addiya tamaaretappe issuwa gidikkii?” yaagis. Phexiroosi zaaridi, “Akkay, taani gidikke” yaagidi kaddis.
26 One of the High Priest’s servants, a relation of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, exclaimed: “Did not I myself see you with him in the garden?”
Kahine halaqaa aylletappe issoy, Phexiroosi haythaa qanxida addiya dabboy, Phexiroosakko, “Taani nena iyara atakilttiya giddon be7abiikkina?” yaagidi oychchis.
27 Peter again denied it; and at that moment a cock crowed.
Phexiroosi qassika kaddis. Sohuwara kuttoy waassi aggis.
28 From Caiaphas they took Jesus to the Government House. It was early in the morning. But they did not enter the Government House themselves, lest they should become ‘defiled,’ and so be unable to eat the Passover.
Wontta guura, entti Yesuusa Qayyaafa sooppe deriya haareyssa ooso keethi ekki efidosona. Ayhudeti Faasika Baale kathaa maanaw banttana tunisonna mela deriya haareyssa ooso keethaa gelibookkona.
29 Therefore Pilate came outside to speak to them. “What charge do you bring against this man?” he asked.
Hessa gisho, Philaaxoosi enttako kare keyidi, “Ha addiya ays mooteetii?” yaagis.
30 “If he had not been a criminal, we should not have given him up to you,” they answered.
Entti, “I iita oothonnabaa gidiyakko nuuni iya neekko ehokko” yaagidosona.
31 “Take him yourselves,” said Pilate, “and try him by your own Law.” “We have no power to put any one to death,” the Jews replied —
Philaaxoosi zaaridi, “Hintte iya ekki efidi, hintte higgey geyssada iya bolla pirddite” yaagis. Ayhudeti, “Oonakka wodhiya maati nuus baawa” yaagidosona;
32 In fulfilment of what Jesus had said when indicating the death that he was destined to die.
Hessi haniday Yesuusi ay mela hayqo hayqqaneekko erisanaw odidayssi polettanaassa.
33 After that, Pilate went into the Government House again, and calling Jesus up, asked him: “Are you the King of the Jews?”
Philaaxoosi ba ooso keetha zaari gelidi, Yesuusa xeegidi, “Neeni Ayhude kawo?” yaagidi oychchis.
34 “Do you ask me that yourself?” replied Jesus, “or did others say it to you about me?”
Yesuusi Philaaxoosa, “Ha oysha neeni neeppe oychchayye woykko hara asi new tabaa odidee?” yaagis.
35 “Do you take me for a Jew?” was Pilate’s answer. “It is your own nation and the Chief Priests who have given you up to me. What have you done?”
Philaaxoosi zaaridi, “Ta Ayhude asi? Ne asaynne kahine halaqati nena taw aathi immidosona. Ne ay oothadii?” yaagis.
36 “My kingly power,” replied Jesus, “is not due to this world. If it had been so, my servants would be doing their utmost to prevent my being given up to the Jews; but my kingly power is not from the world.”
Yesuusi, “Ta kawotethay ha alamiyana gidenna. I hayssan gidiyakko ta Ayhudeta halaqatas aadhdha imettonna mela ta aylleti taw olettana. Shin ta kawotethay ha alamiyana gidenna” yaagis.
37 “So you are a King after all!” exclaimed Pilate. “Yes, it is true I am a King,” answered Jesus. “I was born for this, I have come into the world for this — to bear testimony to the Truth. Every one who is on the side of Truth listens to my voice.”
Hessa gisho, Philaaxoosi Yesuusakko, “Yaatin, neeni kawoyye?” yaagidi oychchis. Yesuusi zaaridi, “Tuma ta kawo gideyssa ne gadasa. Taani yelettidaynne ha alamiya yiday tumatethaas markkattanassa. Tumaa bagga gidida oonikka taani geyssa si7ees” yaagis.
38 “What is Truth?” exclaimed Pilate. After saying this, he went out to the Jews again, and said: “For my part, I find nothing with which he can be charged.
Philaaxoosi, “Tumi aybee?” yaagis. Philaaxoosi hessa gidaappe guye Ayhudetakko kare keyidi, “Taani iyappe ay iitakka demmabiikke.
39 It is, however, the custom for me to grant you the release of one man at the Passover Festival. Do you wish for the release of the King of the Jews?”
Shin Faasika Baale gallas, issi ase hinttew qashoppe billiya meezey de7ees. Taani hinttew Ayhudeta kawuwa billana mela koyeetii?” yaagis.
40 “No, not this man,” they shouted again, “but Barabbas!” This Barabbas was a robber.
Entti zaaridi, bantta qaalaa dhoqqu oothidi, “Barbbaana billafe attin iya gidenna” yaagidosona. Shin Barbbaani pangga.
