John 19
1 Then, therefore, did Pilate take Jesus and scourge [him],
Kangi, Pilatu akalagiza vamtola Yesu na kumtova michapilu.
2 and the soldiers having plaited a crown of thorns, did place [it] on his head, and a purple garment they put around him,
Vala manjolinjoli vakabota njingwa ya minga, vakamuwalika kumutu, vakamuwalika nyula ya chinkosi langi ya zambalau.
3 and said, 'Hail! the king of the Jews;' and they were giving him slaps.
Vakavya kumbwelela palongolo yaki na kujova, “Tikuwoni, Nkosi wa Vayawudi!” Kuni vakumpamanda.
4 Pilate, therefore, again went forth without, and saith to them, 'Lo, I do bring him to you without, that ye may know that in him I find no fault;'
Pilatu akahuma kuvala kavili, akaujovela msambi wula, “Lola, nikumgotola mundu uyu kwinu, muhotola kumanya kuvya nene nichiwene lepi chindu chochoha cheabudili cha kumuhamula.”
5 Jesus, therefore, came forth without, bearing the thorny crown and the purple garment; and he saith to them, 'Lo, the man!'
Hinu, Yesu, akahuma kuvala kuni awalili njingwa ya minga na nyula ya chinkosi. Pilatu akavajovela, “Mlola! Mundu mwene ndi uyu.”
6 When, therefore, the chief priests and the officers did see him, they cried out, saying, 'Crucify, crucify;' Pilate saith to them, 'Take ye him — ye, and crucify; for I find no fault in him;'
Vakulu va kuteta na valonda pavamuwene vakayangula. “Mvambayi pamsalaba! Mvambayi pamsalaba!” Pilatu akavajovela. “Mwavene mumtola hinu, mukamvamba muni nene nichiweni lepi chindu cheabudili.”
7 the Jews answered him, 'We have a law, and according to our law he ought to die, for he made himself Son of God.'
Vayawudi vakamyangula, “Tavete tivii nagu Malagizu, na malagizu gitu gijova, yikumgana afwayi, ndava mwene ajidetekisi kuvya Mwana wa Chapanga.”
8 When, therefore, Pilate heard this word, he was the more afraid,
Pilatu peagayuwini malovi ago, akayogopa neju.
9 and entered again to the praetorium, and saith to Jesus, 'Whence art thou?' and Jesus gave him no answer.
Kangi Pilatu akayingila munyumba ya unkosi, akamkota Yesu, “Veve uhumili koki?” Nambu Yesu amyangwili lepi chindu.
10 Pilate, therefore, saith to him, 'To me dost thou not speak? hast thou not known that I have authority to crucify thee, and I have authority to release thee?'
Pilatu akamjovela, “Wu, wibela kulongela na nene? Wu, umanyi lepi kuvya nene nihotola kukudindulila na nihotola kulagiza uvambiwa pamsalaba?”
11 Jesus answered, 'Thou wouldest have no authority against me, if it were not having been given thee from above; because of this, he who is delivering me up to thee hath greater sin.'
Yesu akamyangula, “Ngauvi lepi na uhotola panani yangu changali kupewa na Chapanga. Ndava yeniyo yula mweaniletili kwaku ambudili neju.”
12 From this [time] was Pilate seeking to release him, and the Jews were crying out, saying, 'If this one thou mayest release, thou art not a friend of Caesar; every one making himself a king, doth speak against Caesar.'
Kutumbula penapo, Pilatu alonda njila ya kumlekekesa Yesu, nambu Vayawudi vakaywanga. “Ngati umlekekisi mundu uyu, veve nkozi lepi wa nkosi wa ku Loma, mundu yoyoha mweajikita kuvya nkosi akumpinga nkosi mkulu wa Loma!”
13 Pilate, therefore, having heard this word, brought Jesus without — and he sat down upon the tribunal — to a place called, 'Pavement,' and in Hebrew, Gabbatha;
Hinu, Pilatu peayuwini malovi ago akamuhumisa Yesu kuvala, akatama pachigoda cha uhamula, pandu pepikemelewa “Luvanja lwelutengenizwi kwa maganga.” Amala kwa Chiebulania Gabata.
14 and it was the preparation of the passover, and as it were the sixth hour, and he saith to the Jews, 'Lo, your king!'
Yavi lukumbi lwa muhi, ligono la kutendelekela Pasaka. Pilatu akavajovela Vayawudi, “nkosi winu ndi uyu!”
15 and they cried out, 'Take away, take away, crucify him;' Pilate saith to them, 'Your king shall I crucify?' the chief priests answered, 'We have no king except Caesar.'
Vene vakaywanga, “Mkomayi! Mkomayi! Mvambayi pamsalaba?” Pilatu akavakota, “Wu, nimvamba pamsalaba nkosi winu?” Vakulu va kuteta vakayangula, “Tete tivii lepi na nkosi yungi nambu nga nkosi wa ku Loma!”
16 Then, therefore, he delivered him up to them, that he may be crucified, and they took Jesus and led [him] away,
Hinu, Pilatu akamgotola Yesu mumawoko gavi muni vamvambayi pamsalaba. Manjolinjoli, vakamtola Yesu.
17 and bearing his cross, he went forth to the place called [Place] of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew Golgotha;
Yesu akahuma kuni agegili msalaba waki, mbaka pandu pepikemelewa “Libangu la Mutu.” Kwa Chiebulania pikemelewa Goligota.
18 where they crucified him, and with him two others, on this side, and on that side, and Jesus in the midst.
Penapo ndi pavamvambili pamsalaba, na pamonga nayu vavavambili pamisalaba yavi vandu vangi vavili mmonga upandi wa kulyela na yungi upandi wa kumangeya, Yesu ndi pagati yavi.
19 And Pilate also wrote a title, and put [it] on the cross, and it was written, 'Jesus the Nazarene, the king of the Jews;'
Pilatu akayandika likokoso pachibau akakivika panani ya msalaba, akayandika, “Yesu Mnazaleti Nkosi wa Vayawudi.”
20 this title, therefore, read many of the Jews, because the place was nigh to the city where Jesus was crucified, and it was having been written in Hebrew, in Greek, in Roman.
Hinu, Vayawudi vamahele vasomili likokoso ilo, muni pandu peavambiwi Yesu pamsalaba pavi papipi na muji. Kangi likokoso lenilo layandikwi kwa Chiebulania na Chilatini na Chigiliki.
21 The chief priests of the Jews said, therefore, to Pilate, 'Write not — The king of the Jews, but that one said, I am king of the Jews;'
Hinu, Vakulu va kuteta vakamjovela Pilatu, “Kotoka kuyandika. ‘Nkosi wa Vayawudi,’ Nambu mundu uyu ajovili kuvya, ‘Nene ndi Nkosi wa Vayawudi.’”
22 Pilate answered, 'What I have written, I have written.'
Pilatu akayangula, “Geniyandiki gala nimali, kuyandika!”
23 The soldiers, therefore, when they did crucify Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to each soldier a part, also the coat, and the coat was seamless, from the top woven throughout,
Manjolinjoli pevamali kumvamba Yesu pamsalaba, vakazitola nyula zaki, vakavika malundu mcheche, kila mmonga na lilundu laki. Mewawa vakatola na lijoho laki la unkosi, lijoho ilo labotiwi kwa chipandi chimonga ndu, changali kutotewa.
24 they said, therefore, to one another, 'We may not rend it, but cast a lot for it, whose it shall be;' that the Writing might be fulfilled, that is saying, 'They divided my garments to themselves, and upon my raiment they did cast a lot;' the soldiers, therefore, indeed, did these things.
Manjolinjoli vala, vakajovesana. “Tikotoka kuyipapula, muni titova kula yati livya la yani.” Lijambu lenili lahengiki muni Mayandiku Gamsopi gegijova, “Vagavini nyula zangu, Na nyula yangu vakayitovela kula.” Ndi, chevahengili vala manjolinjoli.
25 And there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary of Cleopas, and Mary the Magdalene;
Papipi na msalaba wa Yesu vayimili nyina waki Yesu, na mlumbu wa nyina waki na Maliya mdala wa Kileopa, na Maliya Magidala.
26 Jesus, therefore, having seen [his] mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he was loving, he saith to his mother, 'Woman, lo, thy son;'
Yesu peamuwene nyina waki, na papipi yaki ayimili muwuliwa yula mweamganili, akamjovela nyina waki. “Mau, Lola, mwenuyo ndi mwana waku.”
27 afterward he saith to the disciple, 'Lo, thy mother;' and from that hour the disciple took her to his own [home].
Kangi akamjovela muwuliwa yula. “Lola, mwenuyo ndi nyina waku.” Na kutumbula lukumbi lula muwuliwa yula akamtola atama kunyumba yaki.
28 After this, Jesus knowing that all things now have been finished, that the Writing may be fulfilled, saith, 'I thirst;'
Yesu amanyili kuvya goha gamali kutimila, muni Mayandiku Gamsopi gatimilayi, akajova, “Niyuana njota.”
29 a vessel, therefore, was placed full of vinegar, and they having filled a sponge with vinegar, and having put [it] around a hyssop stalk, did put [it] to his mouth;
Penapo pavi na nkele weumemili divayi yivavanu. Hinu vakajwiga litonji mudivayi yivavanu vakavika mulungoda lwa mkongo weukemiwa hisopo, vakamvikila pamlomo.
30 when, therefore, Jesus received the vinegar, he said, 'It hath been finished;' and having bowed the head, gave up the spirit.
Yesu peamali kupewa divayi yivavanu yila, akajova, “Goha gatimili!” Kangi akagundama mutu, akafwa.
31 The Jews, therefore, that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath, since it was the preparation, (for that sabbath day was a great one, ) asked of Pilate that their legs may be broken, and they taken away.
Yavi ijumaa, ligono la kutendelekeha. Ndava muni, higa yikoto kutama pamsalaba Ligono la Kupumulila, muni ligono ilo lavi likulu kwa Vayawudi. Hinu vachilongosi va Vayawudi vakamuyupa Pilatu, magendelu ga vala vevavambiwi pamsalaba gadenyewayi na higa zavi ziwusiwayi.
32 The soldiers, therefore, came, and of the first indeed they did break the legs, and of the other who was crucified with him,
Manjolinjoli vakahamba, vakayidenya magendelu ga mundu wa upandi wa kumangeya na yula wa upandi wa kulyela vevavambiwi pamisalaba pamonga na Yesu vala.
33 and having come to Jesus, when they saw him already having been dead, they did not break his legs;
Nambu pavamhikili Yesu vamkoli amali kufwa, ndi vamdenyili lepi magendelu.
34 but one of the soldiers with a spear did pierce his side, and immediately there came forth blood and water;
Nambu mmonga wavi amuhomili Yesu muluvafu na mgoha, bahapo yikahuma ngasi na manji.
35 and he who hath seen hath testified, and his testimony is true, and that one hath known that true things he speaketh, that ye also may believe.
Mwene yula mwealoli lijambu lenilo, alijovili muni na nyenye musadika. Na aga geajovili ndi uchakaka, kavili mwene imanya kuvya ijova chakaka.
36 For these things came to pass, that the Writing may be fulfilled, 'A bone of him shall not be broken;'
Lijambu lenili lahengiki muni Mayandiku Gamsopi gatimila. “Kawaka hati lijege laki limonga lelidenyewa.”
37 and again another Writing saith, 'They shall look to him whom they did pierce.'
Mewawa Mayandiku Gamsopi gijova. “Vakumlola yula mwevamuhomili.”
38 And after these things did Joseph of Arimathea — being a disciple of Jesus, but concealed, through the fear of the Jews — ask of Pilate, that he may take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave leave; he came, therefore, and took away the body of Jesus,
Pagamaliki genago, Yosefu mkolonjinji wa Alimatei, akamuyupa Pilatu kuyihulusa higa ya Yesu kuhuma pamsalaba. Yosefu avi mulanda waki Yesu, nambu chamfiyu, muni ayogwipi vachilongosi wa Vayawudi. Ndi Pilatu akamyidakila, Yosefu ahambili kuyiwusa higa ya Yesu.
39 and Nicodemus also came — who came unto Jesus by night at the first — bearing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, as it were, a hundred pounds.
Yosefu alongosini na Nikodemu, mweamuhambili Yesu kimihi, akabwela agegili mahuta gegikemelewa manemane gegahangisini na ubani vibaba selasini.
40 They took, therefore, the body of Jesus, and bound it with linen clothes with the spices, according as it was the custom of the Jews to prepare for burial;
Hinu voha vavili vakayitola higa ya Yesu, na kuyitindisila nyula ya msopi pamonga na mahuta ago ngati cheyavili mivelu ya Vayawudi pakuvika higa mulitinda.
41 and there was in the place where he was crucified a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one was yet laid;
Pandu pala pevamvambili Yesu pamsalaba, pavi na lidimba palidimba lenilo pavi na litinda la mupya lelavi lakona kumvika mundu yoyoha mugati yaki.
42 there, therefore, because of the preparation of the Jews, because the tomb was nigh, they laid Jesus.
Ndava ya mahengu ga Vayawudi ga kutendelekeha Ligono la Kupumulila, ndava litinda lenilo lavi papipi vakamuvika Yesu mwenumo.
