John 19
1 Then Pilate took Jesus and scourged Him.
Mpawo Pilato wakatola Jesu akuyomunabba.
2 And the soldiers, twisting twigs of thorn into a wreath, put it on His head, and threw round Him a crimson cloak.
Basilumamba bakalunda ingowani yamamvwa. Bakayibikka amutwe waJesu bamuzwatika asila lyamusyobo wantuumbula.
3 Then they began to march up to Him, saying in a mocking voice, "Hail King of the Jews!" And they struck Him with the palms of their hands.
Bakasika kulinguwe basikuti, wabonwa, “Mwami waba Juda!” mpawo basikumuma.
4 Once more Pilate came out and said to the Jews, "See, I am bringing him out to you to let you clearly understand that I find no crime in him."
Pilato wakabbuda aanze lubo wasikuti kulimbabo, “Mubone, ndikumweeta anze kulindinywe kuchitila kuti muzibe kuti nsijene mulandu pe aalinguwe.”
5 So Jesus came out, wearing the wreath of thorns and the crimson cloak. And Pilate said to them, "See, there is the man."
Awo Jesu wakabbuda aanze, kazweete musini wamamvwa asiila lyachikobela chamusyobo wantumbula. Pilato wakati kulimbabo, “Mubone ngooyu mwalumi!”
6 As soon then as the High Priests and the officers saw Him, they shouted "To the cross! To the cross!" "Take him yourselves and crucify him," said Pilate; "for I, at any rate, find no crime in him."
Mpawo awo bapayizi bapati ababelesi nibakabona Jesu, bakoompololesya bati, “Aababmbulwe, abambulwe!” Pilato wakati kuli mbabo, “Mumutole ndinywe mukamubambule nkambo nsijene mulandu pe kulinguwe.”
7 "We," replied the Jews, "have a Law, and in accordance with that Law he ought to die, for having claimed to be the Son of God."
Ba Juda bakamusandula, “Tulijisi mulawu, alubo kwinda mumulawu oyoo, welede kufwa nkambo wakali kulyaamba kuti Mwana waLeza.”
8 More alarmed than ever, Pilate no sooner heard these words than he re-entered the Praetorium and began to question Jesus.
Aawo Pilato nakamvwa nkani eeyi, wakayoweesya loko.
9 "What is your origin?" he asked. But Jesus gave him no answer.
Wakanjila mungánda yakubetekela lubo wati kuli Jesu, “Uuzwa kuli? Pesi Jesu takwakasandula pe.
10 "Do you refuse to speak even to me?" asked Pilate; "do you not know that I have it in my power either to release you or to crucify you?"
Mpawo Pilato wakati kulinguwe, “Towambuli na kulindime?” Toozi na kuti ndilenguzu zyakukwangununa aanguzu zyakukubambula?
11 "You would have had no power whatever over me," replied Jesus, "had it not been granted you from above. On that account he who has delivered me up to you is more guilty than you are."
Jesu wakamusandula, “Tojisi pe kupanguzu alindime kusiya eecho nchiwakapegwa kuzwa kujulu, nikuba oobo, ooyo wandipedya kuli nduwe ulaachibi chipati.”
12 Upon receiving this answer, Pilate was for releasing Him. But the Jews kept shouting, "If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar's. Every one who sets himself up as king declares himself a rebel against Caesar."
Kunsandulo eeyi, Pilato wakeezya kumwangununa pesi bama Juda bakawompoolola kabati, “kuti wangununa mwalumi ooyu, “Tooli muzolwani wa Siza. Woonse ulichita mwami uuwambula ataala a Siza.
13 On hearing this, Pilate brought Jesus out, and sat down on the judge's seat in a place called the Pavement--or in Hebrew, Gabbatha.
Pilato nakamvwa makani aaya wakeeta Jesu aanze wakkala aachuno chakubetekela mubusena bwiitwa kuti “Ibbuwa lyamabwe,” pesi mumulaka wachi Hibbulu, ni “Gabbata.”
14 It was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about six o'clock in the morning. Then he said to the Jews, "There is your king!"
Lino lyakali izuba lyakubambililwa kwapasika, chiindi chamahola aali musanu alimwi. Pilato wakati kuba Juda, “Mulange ngoyu mwami wenu!”
15 This caused a storm of outcries, "Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!" "Am I to crucify your king?" Pilate asked. "We have no king, except Caesar," answered the High Priests.
Bakawompolola, “Kuule anguwe, kule anguwe, “Abambulwe!” Pilato wakati kuli mbabo, “Mubambule na mwami wenu?” Bapayizi bapati bakasandula, “Tatukwe mwami pe, pesi Siiza.”
16 Then Pilate gave Him up to them to be crucified. Accordingly they took Jesus;
Mpawo Pilato wakapedekezya Jesu kuli mbabo kuti abambuulwe.
17 and He went out carrying His own cross, to the place called Skull-place--or, in Hebrew, Golgotha--
Mpawo bakatola Jesu, bayinka aanze, kalibwezelede chiingano, kubusena butegwa “Kaanza,” chiitwa kuti “Gologota.” mumulaka wachi Giliki.
18 where they nailed Him to a cross, and two others at the same time, one on each side and Jesus in the middle.
Bakamubambula Jesu nkuko, antomwe abamwi baalumi babili umwi kuli eeli bbazu, umwi kuli eeli, Jesu kali akati.
19 And Pilate wrote a notice and had it fastened to the top of the cross. It ran thus: JESUS THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
Pilato wakalemba chitondezyo wachibika achiingano. Chakalembedwe obu: JESU, MWAMI WABA JUDA.
20 Many of the Jews read this notice, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and the notice was in three languages--Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.
BaJuda biingi bakalikuchibala chitondezyo eechi nkambo busena Jesu nkwakabambwidwe bwakali afwifwi adolopo. Chitondezyo chakalembedwe mumilaka eyi, chi Hibbulu, Latini, antomwe amuchi Giliki.
21 This led the Jewish High Priests to remonstrate with Pilate. "You should not write 'The King of the Jews,'" they said, "but that he claimed to be King of the Jews."
Eelyo bapayizi bapati babaJuda bakati kuli Pilato, “Utalembi kuti, “Mwami wabaJuda, pesi utedi, “Ooyu uulyamba kut, “Ndimwami wabamaJuda.””
22 "What I have written I have written," was Pilate's answer.
Pilato wakasandula kuti nzindalemba, ndalemba.”
23 So the soldiers, as soon as they had crucified Jesus, took His garments, including His tunic, and divided them into four parts--one part for each soldier. The tunic was without seam, woven from the top in one piece.
Basilumamba nibakabambula Jesu, bakatola zisamo zyakwe, bazyabana akati kabo muzibeela zyoone, kuti baabane umwi awumwi, achilacho chibaki. Lino chibaki chakali abusumyo buumwi kuzwida ajulu.
24 So they said to one another, "Do not let us tear it. Let us draw lots for it." This happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says, "They shared my garments among them, and drew lots for my clothing." That was just what the soldiers did.
Mpawo bakati kuli umwi awumwi, “Tatuchideluli pe, pesi aatusonde kuchitila kuti chilyaambe kuti chilaaba chani. Eechi chakachitika kuchitila kuti malembe azuzikizigwe awamba kuti, “Bakaabana zikobela zyangu akati kaabo akusonda zisamo zyangu. Eezi nzibakachita basilumamba.”
25 Now standing close to the cross of Jesus were His mother and His mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala.
Lino ibakayimvwi afwifwi achiingano cha Jesu, kwakali banyina Jesu, kwakali mukulana wabanyina, Meli muka Kkilopasi, a Meli Magadalina. Aaba bamakayintu bakalimvwi afwifwi achiingano cha Jesu.
26 So Jesus, seeing His mother, and seeing the disciple whom He loved standing near, said to His mother, "Behold, your son!"
Jesu nakabona banyina asikwiiya ooyo ngwakali kuyandisya kabimvwi afwifwi, wakati kuli banyina, “Yomwanakazi, “Langa, mwanako!”
27 Then He said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother!" And from that time the disciple received her into his own home.
Mpawo wakati kuli sikwiiya, “Langa banyoko.” Kuzwa kuchiindi echo sikwiya wakabatola banyina kungánda yakwe.
28 After this, Jesus, knowing that everything was now brought to an end, said--that the Scripture might be fulfilled, "I am thirsty."
Nikwakayinda ezi Jesu, nkambo wakaziba kuti zyonse lino zyakali zyamana, akuchitila kuti malembe ayelede kuzuzikizigwa, Jesu wakati, “Ndaaba enyota”
29 There was a jar of wine standing there. With this wine they filled a sponge, put it on the end of a stalk of hyssop, and lifted it to His mouth.
Chibikilo chakazwide wayini upanyuka chakaliwo, mpawo bakabika akasamu kakaangidwe chisana chakazwide wayini upanyuka bamutambikizya amulomo wakwe.
30 As soon as Jesus had taken the wine, He said, "It is finished." And then, bowing His head, He yielded up His spirit.
Jesu nakanywa wayini upanyuka wakati “Kwamana.” wakalanzya mutwe aansi akupedya muuya wakwe.
31 Meanwhile the Jews, because it was the day of Preparation for the Passover, and in order that the bodies might not remain on the crosses during the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was one of special solemnity), requested Pilate to have the legs of the dying men broken, and the bodies removed.
Mpawo baJuda, akambo kakuti lyakali izuba lyakulibambila, akuti mibili teyakali kuchaala aachingano kuchindi chasabata ( elyo Sabata yakali mpati loko), bakakumbila Pilato kuti atyole mawulu aabo akubagwisya.
32 Accordingly the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man and also of the other who had been crucified with Jesus.
Mpawo basilumamba bakasika akutyola mawulu amwalumi wakutanguna awabili wabo bakabambwidwe a Jesu.
33 Then they came to Jesus Himself: but when they saw that He was already dead, they refrained from breaking His legs.
Nibakasika kuli Jesu, bakabona kuti wakali wafwa kale, aboobo tebakamutyola pe mawulu akwe.
34 One of the soldiers, however, made a thrust at His side with a lance, and immediately blood and water flowed out.
Nikuba obo, umwi wabasilumamba wakamuyasa limwi bbazu esumu, mpawo kwakazwa iganzi amaanzi.
35 This statement is the testimony of an eye-witness, and it is true. He knows that he is telling the truth--in order that you also may believe.
Ooyo wakabona eechi wakaamba bukamboni, abukamboni bwakwe mbwakasimpe. Ulizi kuti nzyawamba ninchobeni kuchitila kuti anduwe usyome.
36 For all this took place that the Scripture might be fulfilled which declares, "Not one of His bones shall be broken."
Nkambo eezi zintu zyakachitika kuchitila kuzuzikizya malembe, “Takwe nikuba limwi fuwa lyakwe litakatyolwe.”
37 And again another Scripture says, "They shall look on Him whom they have pierced."
Alubo, aamwi malembe aamba kuti, “Bayolanga kulinguwe ooyo ngubakayasa.”
38 After this, Joseph of Arimathaea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but for fear of the Jews a secret disciple, asked Pilate's permission to carry away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him leave. So he came and removed the body.
Nikwakamana ezi zintu, Josefa waku Alimatiya mbuli kuti wakali sikwiiya ( pesi mukusisikizya akuyoowa baJuda) wakakukumbila kuli Pilato kuti atoole mubili waJesu, Pilato wakamuzumizya. Aboobo Josefa wakaboola akuutola mubili waJesu.
39 Nicodemus too--he who at first had visited Jesus by night--came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, in weight about seventy or eighty pounds.
Nikkodimasi alakwe wakasika, nguwe wakazide kutangna kuli Jesu mansiku. Wakeeta tununkilizyo tuvwelene twamuula atwatyati, mweelwe wamuyanda umwi wampondo.
40 Taking down the body they wrapped it in linen cloths along with the spices, in accordance with the Jewish mode of preparing for burial.
Mpawo bakatola mubili wa Jesu bawuvungilizya zisani zituba atununkilizyo mbuli muchaanza chaba maJuda kukuvwikka mubili.
41 There was a garden at the place where Jesus had been crucified, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had yet been buried.
Lino mubusena mwakabambwidwe kwakali chilili, omu muchilili mwakali kabanda kakatalina kulazikwa muntu naba umwi pe.
42 Therefore, because it was the day of Preparation for the Jewish Passover, and the tomb was close at hand, they put Jesus there.
Nkambo kakuti lyakali izuba lyakuli bambilila lyabama Juda alimwi akambo kakuti kabanda kakali afwifwi, bakamulazika mumo Jesu.
