< John 19 >

1 So Pilate then took Jesus and flogged him.
Bhai, a Pilato gubhaatolile a Yeshu gubhaakomile mishapilo.
2 The soldiers twisted thorns into a crown and put it on his head, and dressed him in a purple garment.
Na bhalabhonji ashimanjola nkwaalembula, gubhaeleyenje ulemba gwa mibha, gubhaawashiyenje a Yeshu muntwe mbuti ulemba gwa shipalume, gubhaawashiyenje na nngubho ja langi ja shambalau.
3 They kept saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and they kept slapping him.
Gubhaajendelenje, bhalinkutinji “Tunakunkomaya a mpalume bha Bhayaudi!” Gubhaakomilenje mapapa mmatukwa.
4 Then Pilate went out again, and said to them, “Behold, I bring him out to you, that you may know that I find no basis for a charge against him.”
Kungai a Pilato gubhakopweshe kabhili palanga, gubhaalugulilenje, “Nnolanje, ngunakwiya nabho kabhili kwenu mmanganya mmumanyanje kuti nne, nangashibhona shoshowe shibhalebhile.”
5 Jesus therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. Pilate said to them, “Behold, the man!”
Bhai, a Yeshu gubhakopweshe palanga bhawete ulemba gwa mibha na nngubho ja langi ja shambalau. A Pilato gubhaalugulilenje bhandunji bhala, “Nnolanje! Abha apano.”
6 When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they shouted, saying, “Crucify! Crucify!” Pilate said to them, “Take him yourselves and crucify him, for I find no basis for a charge against him.”
Bhai, Bhakulungwa bhaabhishila na bhalinda bhakaabhonanjeje a Yeshu gubhautiyenje lilobhe bhalinkutinji, “Mwaabhambe munshalabha! Mwaabhambe munshalabha!” A Pilato gubhaalugulilenje, “Bhai, mwaatolanje mwaashayenenji nkaabhambanje munshalabha, pabha nne ngakushibhona shibhalebhile.”
7 The Jews answered him, “We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.”
Bhayaudi gubhaajangwilenje, “Uwe tukwete shalia ja kwaukumula, pabha bhashinkwiitenda kuti Mwana jwa a Nnungu.”
8 When therefore Pilate heard this saying, he was more afraid.
Bhai a Pilato bhakapilikaneje gene malobhego gubhapundile jogopa.
9 He entered into the Praetorium again, and said to Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus gave him no answer.
Bhai, gubhajinjile kabhili nnukumbi lukulu lushemwa Pulaitolio, gubhaabhushiye a Yeshu, “Mmwe kunkoposhele kwai?” Ikabheje a Yeshu bhangaajangula shindu shoshowe.
10 Pilate therefore said to him, “Aren’t you speaking to me? Don’t you know that I have power to release you and have power to crucify you?”
Bhai a Pilato gubhaalugulile “Nkaapinga kubheleketa na nne? Bhuli nkaakumumanya kuti nne njikola ukulungwa gwa kunngopola na gwa kummamba munshalabha?”
11 Jesus answered, “You would have no power at all against me, unless it were given to you from above. Therefore he who delivered me to you has greater sin.”
A Yeshu gubhaajangwile, “Mmwe ngunkakweteje upalume gogowe kwangu nne gwangali pegwa na a Nnungu. Kwa nneyo jwene angamwiye kwenu mmwejo, ashikola shambi shikulungwa.”
12 At this, Pilate was seeking to release him, but the Jews cried out, saying, “If you release this man, you aren’t Caesar’s friend! Everyone who makes himself a king speaks against Caesar!”
Tandubhila penepo a Pilato gubhaloleye shanabhuli shibhaagopole, ikabheje Bhayaudi gubhajobhelenje bhalinkutinji, “Mwaagopolaga bhenebha, mmwe mwangali shilongani na a Kaishali a mpalume bhakulu bha Loma, kila mundu akwiitenda mpalume anakwaatendebhuka a Kaishali!”
13 When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judgement seat at a place called “The Pavement”, but in Hebrew, “Gabbatha.”
Bhai a Pilato, bhakapilikaneje gene malobhego, gubhakopweshe nabho a Yeshu palanga, gubhatemi pashitengu sha ukumu, pashemwaga “lupenu lwa maganga” eu kwa Shiebhulania, “Gabhasha.”
14 Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, at about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, “Behold, your King!”
Puyaliji mui malanga ga shaa shita nnei, lyubha lya kolokoya Pashaka. A Pilato gubhaalugulilenje Bhayaudi, “Mwaalolanje! A mpalume bhenunji!”
15 They cried out, “Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Shall I crucify your King?” The chief priests answered, “We have no king but Caesar!”
Bhai, bhanganyabho gubhajobhelenje, “Mwaashoye! Mwashoye! Bhabhambwe munshalabha!” A Pilato gubhaabhushiyenje, “Bhuli naabhambe munshalabha a mpalume bhenunji?” Bhakulungwanji bhaabhishila gubhajangwilenje, “Uwe twangali a mpalume ikabhe a Kaishali!”
16 So then he delivered him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led him away.
Penepo a Pilato gubhaakamwiyenje a Yeshu nkupinga bhaabhambe munshalabha, na bhalabhonji gubhaaposhelenje. Bhai, gubhaatolilenje a Yeshu.
17 He went out, bearing his cross, to the place called “The Place of a Skull”, which is called in Hebrew, “Golgotha”,
Na bhalabho gubhakopweshe palanga akuno bhajigele nshalabha gwabho, kuloya mmbali pashemwaga “Shibhanga sha Ntwe” kwa Shiebhulania Goligota.
18 where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the middle.
Penepo nipubhaabhambilenje munshalabha a Yeshu na bhandu bhananji bhabhili, jumo nkono gwabho gwa nnilo, na juna nkono nshinda gwabho na a Yeshu pakati pakati.
19 Pilate wrote a title also, and put it on the cross. There was written, “JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
Na bhalabho a Pilato gubhajandishe mmbila panani nshalabha, jijandikwe nnei, “A YESHU BHANASHALETI, A MPALUME BHA BHAYAUDI.”
20 Therefore many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.
Bhai Bhayaudi bhabhagwinji gubhashomilenje jene mmbilajo, pabha pubhaabhambilenje munshalabha a Yeshu, pupaaliji tome na shilambo. Na jene mmbilajo pujajandikwe kwa Shiebhulania na Shilatini na Shigiliki.
21 The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, “Don’t write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but, ‘he said, “I am King of the Jews.”’”
Bhai, bhakulungwanji bha bhaabhishila na Bhayaudi gubhaalugulilenje a Pilato, “Nnajandishe. ‘A mpalume bha Bhayaudi,’ ikabhe bhashinkubheleketa bhayene kuti, ‘Nne mpalume jwa Bhayaudi.’”
22 Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
A Pilato gubhajangwile, “Gunyandishe, nigajandishe!”
23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
Ashimanjola bhala bhakaabhambanjeje a Yeshu munshalabha, gubhatolilenje nngubho yabho, gubhagebhenyenje maungu nsheshe, malinga shibhalinginji. Gubhatolilenje na kanshu jabho, jenejo pujaliji ja lukwa.
24 Then they said to one another, “Let’s not tear it, but cast lots for it to decide whose it will be,” that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which says, “They parted my garments amongst them. They cast lots for my clothing.” Therefore the soldiers did these things.
Bhai, gubhalugulilenenje, “Tunajipapule, ikabhe tutende shikoma jibhe jika gani.” Genego gashinkutendeka nkupinga gatimilile Majandiko ga Ukonjelo ga taya, “Bhashinkugabhananga nngubho yangu, Na nngubho jangu gubhaagulenje kwa shikoma.” Bhai nneyo, ni shibhatendilenje ashimanjola bhala.
25 But standing by Jesus’ cross were his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.
Tome na nshalabha gwa a Yeshu bhashinkujimangana anyinabhabho, na a Malia akulu bhabho anyinabhabho akongobhabho a Kileopashi, na a Malia Magidalena.
26 Therefore when Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing there, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son!”
Bhai, a Yeshu bhakaabhoneje anyinabhabho na nkujiganywa jubhampinjile jula ajimi patome, gubhaalugulile anyinabhabho, “A Mama! Munnole, mwanagwenu.”
27 Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” From that hour, the disciple took her to his own home.
Kungai gubhaannugulile nkujiganywa jula. “Mwaalole, anyina bhenu.” Kutandubhila penepo, bhaajiganywa bhala gubhaatolile anyina bhabho a Yeshu bhakatame kunngwabho.
28 After this, Jesus, seeing that all things were now finished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I am thirsty!”
Kungai, a Yeshu akuno bhalikumumanya kuti gowe gamalile, nkupinga Majandiko ga Ukonjelo gatimilile, gubhashite, “Njikola njota.”
29 Now a vessel full of vinegar was set there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop, and held it at his mouth.
Penepo jashinkupagwa bhakuli jigumbeywe divai ja shashama. Bhai, gubhashubhikenje shiponji mmakuli ja divai ja shashama jila, gubhatabhilenje nnubhalabhala lwa nkongo ushemwa ishopo, gubhaabhishilenje pa kang'wa.
30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, “It is finished!” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
Bhai a Yeshu bhakapapileje divai ja shashama jila, gubhashite, “Gamalile!” Kungai gubhakotime nntwe, gubhamalile.
31 Therefore the Jews, because it was the Preparation Day, so that the bodies wouldn’t remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken away.
Bhai pabha pulyaaliji lyubha lya kolokoya kwa Lyubha lya Pumulila. Kwa nneyo ikapinjikwaga iilu ilepeshe munshalabha Lyubha lya Pumulila, pabha lyene lyubhalyo pulyaaliji likulungwa, Bhayaudi gubhaajujilenje a Pilato bhakaatemanje makongono bhakomelenjwe munshalabha bhala nkupinga bhawanganje shangu, na iilu yabhonji ishoywe mmishalabha.
32 Therefore the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with him;
Bhai, ashimanjola gubhapite kuntemanga makongono mundu jwa nntai na jwa bhili, bhakomelwenje munshalabha pamo na a Yeshu bhala.
33 but when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they didn’t break his legs.
Ikabheje bhakaishilanjeje a Yeshu, gubhaaimenje bhali bhawile, kwa nneyo bhangaatemanga makongono.
34 However, one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.
Ikabheje linjola jumo gwabhaomile lipanga lya mmbalati, bhai gujikopweshe minyai na mashi.
35 He who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, that you may believe.
Kwa nneyo, jwene agabhweni genego ni akong'ondela, nkupinga na mmanganyanji nkulupalilanje. Na gene gabheleketego ni ga kweli, numbe amumanyi kuti anabheleketa ga kweli.
36 For these things happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled, “A bone of him will not be broken.”
Pabha genega gashinkutendeka nkupinga Majandiko ga Ukonjelo gatimilile ga taya kuti, “Lyakwa nkali liupa lyabho limo shilitemanywe.”
37 Again another Scripture says, “They will look on him whom they pierced.”
Na majandiko gana gakuti, “Shibhannolanje jubhanng'omilenje lipanga jula.”
38 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 Jesus’ body. Pilate gave him permission. He came therefore and took away his body.
Gakapiteje genego, a Yoshepu bha ku Alimataya, gubhaajujile a Pilato bhatole shiilu sha a Yeshu. A Yoshepu pubhaliji bhaajiganywa bha a Yeshu, ikabheje kwa nng'iyo, pabha bhatendaga kwaajogopanga ashikalongolele bha Shiyaudi. Bhai, a Pilato gubhajitishiye. Kwa nneyo a Yoshepu gubhapite shoya shiilu sha a Yeshu.
39 Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred Roman pounds.
Na bhalabho a Nikodemo bhene bhaajendele a Yeshu shilo gwa ntai bhala, gubhapite na a Yoshepu bhali bhajigele mauta ga nunjila, gaengenywe na manemane na lubhani kilo makumi gatatu.
40 So they took Jesus’ body, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury.
Bhai, gubhatolilenje shiilu sha a Yeshu shila, gubhailijililenje shanda shammbone sha katani bhali bhatajilenje mauta malinga pugwaliji nkubho gwa Bhayaudi nkushika.
41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden. In the garden was a new tomb in which no man had ever yet been laid.
Pubhabhambilwe munshalabha a Yeshu pala, jashinkupagwa bhushitani na nkati jakwe lyashinkupagwa likabhuli lya ambi likanabhe shikwa mundu jojowe.
42 Then, because of the Jews’ Preparation Day (for the tomb was near at hand), they laid Jesus there.
Pabha Bhayaudi pubhalinginji nkukolokoya ga Lyubha lya Pumulila, na likabhulilyo pulyaaliji pa tome, bhai gubhaabhishilenje a Yeshu mwenemo.
