Matteus 27
1 Varahommikul pidasid kõik ülempreestrid ja rahvavanemad koos nõu ja otsustasid Jeesuse surma saata.
At daybreak all the Chief Priests and the Councillors of the Nation consulted together against Jesus, to bring about his death.
2 Nad sidusid ta kinni, viisid ära ja andsid üle maavalitseja Pilaatusele.
They put him in chains and led him away, and gave him up to the Roman Governor, Pilate.
3 Kui Juudas, kes oli Jeesuse reetnud, nägi, et Jeesus oli surma mõistetud, kahetses ta seda, mida oli teinud, ning andis kolmkümmend hõbemünti ülempreestritele ja vanematele tagasi.
Then Judas, who betrayed him, seeing that Jesus was condemned, repented of what he had done, and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the Chief Priests and Councillors.
4 „Ma olen pattu teinud! Olen ära andnud süütu vere!“ütles ta neile. „Mis on sel meiega pistmist?“vastasid nad. „See on sinu probleem!“
“I did wrong in betraying a good man to his death,” he said. “What has that to do with us?” they replied. “You must see to that yourself.”
5 Juudas viskas hõbemündid pühamusse ja lahkus. Ta läks ära ja poos enese üles.
Judas flung down the pieces of silver in the Temple, and left; and went away and hanged himself.
6 Ülempreestrid võtsid hõbemündid ja ütlesid: „See on vereraha, nii et ei ole seaduslik seda templi varakambrisse panna.“
The Chief Priests took the pieces of silver, but they said: “We must not put them into the Temple treasury, because they are blood-money.”
7 Nii leppisid nad kokku, et ostavad pottsepa põllu kohaks, kuhu matta võõramaalasi.
So, after consultation, they bought with them the ‘Potter’s Field’ for a burial-ground for foreigners;
8 Sellepärast nimetatakse seda välja veel tänapäeval Verepõlluks.
and that is why that field is called the ‘Field of Blood’ to this very day.
9 Sellega täitus Jeremija kaudu esitatud prohvetikuulutus: „Nad võtsid kolmkümmend hõbemünti − selle inimese „väärtuse“, kes osteti mõnede Iisraeli laste määratud hinnaga −
Then it was that these words spoken by the Prophet Jeremiah were fulfilled — ‘They took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him who was valued, whom some of the people of Israel valued,
10 ja kasutasid neid, et maksta pottsepa põllu eest, täpselt nii nagu Issand käskis mul teha.“
and gave them for the Potter’s field, as the Lord commanded me.’
11 Jeesus viidi maavalitseja Pilaatuse ette, kes küsis temalt: „Kas sina oled juutide kuningas?“„Seda ütlesid sina, “vastas Jeesus.
Meanwhile Jesus was brought before the Roman Governor. “Are you the King of the Jews?” asked the Governor. “It is true,” answered Jesus.
12 Aga kui ülempreestrid ja vanemad tema vastu süüdistusi esitasid, siis Jeesus ei vastanud.
While charges were being brought against him by the Chief Priests and Councillors, Jesus made no reply.
13 „Kas sa ei kuule, kui palju süüdistusi neil sinu vastu on?“küsis Pilaatus talt.
Then Pilate said to him: “Do not you hear how many accusations they are making against you?”
14 Kuid Jeesus ei öelnud midagi, ei ühtki sõna. See üllatas maavalitsejat väga.
Yet Jesus made no reply — not even a single word; at which the Governor was greatly astonished.
15 Maavalitsejal oli tava vabastada rahvale pühade ajal vang, keda nad tahavad.
Now, at the Feast, the Governor was accustomed to grant the people the release of any one prisoner whom they might choose.
16 Sel ajal oli vanglas kurikuulus vang, mees nimega Barabas.
At that time they had a notorious prisoner called Barabbas.
17 Nii küsis Pilaatus kokku tulnud rahvahulgalt: „Keda te tahate, et ma teile vabaks lasen? Barabase või Jeesuse, keda nimetatakse Messiaks?“
So, when the people had collected, Pilate said to them: “Which do you wish me to release for you? Barabbas? Or Jesus who is called ‘Christ’?”
18 (Ta oli mõistnud, et Jeesus oli tema ette kohtumõistmiseks toodud kadeduse tõttu.)
For he knew that it was out of jealousy that they had given Jesus up to him.
19 Sel ajal kui ta istus kohtunikutoolil, saatis tema naine talle sõnumi, milles ütles: „Ära tee sellele süütule mehele midagi, sest ma olen täna unenäo tõttu tema pärast kohutavalt kannatanud.“
While he was still on the Bench, his wife sent this message to him — “Do not have anything to do with that good man, for I have been very unhappy to-day in a dream on account of him.”
20 Kuid ülempreestrid ja vanemad veensid rahvast küsima Barabast ja laskma Jeesus hukata.
But the Chief Priests and the Councillors persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas, and to kill Jesus.
21 Kui maavalitseja küsis neilt: „Kumma neist kahest te tahate vabaks saada?“, vastasid nad: „Barabase.“
The Governor, however, said to them: “Which of these two do you wish me to release for you?” “Barabbas,” they answered.
22 „Mida ma teen siis Jeesuse, Messiaga?“küsis ta neilt. Nad kõik karjusid: „Lase ta risti lüüa!“
“What then,” Pilate asked, “shall I do with Jesus who is called ‘Christ?’ “Let him be crucified,” they all replied.
23 „Miks? Mis kuriteo ta siis on teinud?“küsis Pilaatus. Aga nad karjusid veel valjemini: „Löö ta risti!“
“Why, what harm has he done?” he asked. But they kept shouting furiously: “Let him be crucified!”
24 Kui Pilaatus nägi, et asi on lootusetu ja et tekkimas on mäss, võttis ta vett ja pesi rahva ees käsi. „Mina olen selle mehe verest puhas. See tuleb teie pea peale!“ütles ta neile.
When Pilate saw that his efforts were unavailing, but that, on the contrary, a riot was beginning, he took some water, and washed his hands in the sight of the crowd, saying as he did so: “I am not answerable for this bloodshed; you must see to it yourselves.”
25 Kogu rahvas vastas: „Olgu tema veri meie ja meie laste peal!“
And all the people answered: “His blood be on our heads and on our children’s!”
26 Siis laskis ta neile Barabase vabaks, kuid Jeesust lasi ta piitsutada ja saatis ristilöömisele.
The Pilate released Barabbas to them; but Jesus he scourged, and gave him up to be crucified.
27 Maavalitseja sõdurid viisid Jeesuse pretooriumi ja kogu salk ümbritses teda.
After that, the Governor’s soldiers took Jesus with them into the Government House, and gathered the whole garrison round him.
28 Nad võtsid ta alasti ja panid talle sarlakpunase mantli õlgadele.
They stripped him, and put on him a red military cloak,
29 Nad tegid okaspõõsast krooni ja asetasid talle pähe ning pistsid tema paremasse kätte kepi. Nad põlvitasid tema ette maha ja pilkasid teda, öeldes: „Me tervitame sind, juutide kuningas!“
and having twisted some thorns into a crown, put it on his head, and a rod in his right hand, and then, going down on their knees before him, they mocked him. “Long life to you, King of the Jews!” they said.
30 Nad sülitasid tema peale, võtsid kepi ja peksid teda sellega vastu pead.
They spat at him and, taking the rod, kept striking him on the head;
31 Kui nad olid tema mõnitamise lõpetanud, võtsid nad kuue ära ja pandi talle tema enda rõivad selga tagasi. Siis viisid nad ta ära, et ta risti lüüa.
and, when they had left off mocking him, they took off the military cloak, and put his own clothes on him, and led him away to be crucified.
32 Teel leidsid nad mehe nimega Siimon, kes oli Küreenest pärit, ja sundisid teda Jeesuse risti kandma.
As they were on their way out, they came upon a man from Cyrene of the name of Simon; and they compelled him to go with them to carry the cross.
33 Kui nad jõudsid Kolgatale, mis tähendab „Pealuu ase“,
On reaching a place named Golgotha (a place named from its likeness to a skull),
34 andsid nad talle sapiga segatud veini. Aga kui ta oli seda maitsnud, keeldus ta seda joomast.
they gave him some wine to drink which had been mixed with gall; but after tasting it, Jesus refused to drink it.
35 Pärast seda kui nad olid ta risti löönud, veeretasid nad täringuid, et tema riided omavahel ära jaotada.
When they had crucified him, they divided his clothes among them by casting lots.
36 Siis istusid nad maha ja valvasid teda seal.
Then they sat down, and kept watch over him there.
37 Nad panid ta pea kohale sildi tema vastu esitatud süüdistusega. Sildil oli kirjas: „See on Jeesus, juutide kuningas.“
Above his head they fixed the accusation against him written out — ‘THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.’
38 Koos temaga lõid nad risti kaks kurjategijat, ühe temast paremale ja teise temast vasakule.
At the same time two robbers were crucified with him, one on the right, the other on the left.
39 Möödujad karjusid talle solvanguid ja ütlesid pead raputades:
The passers-by railed at him, shaking their heads as they said:
40 „Sina, kes sa lubasid templi hävitada ja kolme päevaga üles ehitada, miks sa ennast ei päästa? Kui sa tõesti oled Jumala Poeg, siis tule risti pealt maha.“
“You who ‘destroy the Temple and build one in three days,’ save yourself! If you are God’s Son, come down from the cross!”
41 Ülempreestrid pilkasid teda samamoodi koos vaimulike õpetajate ja vanematega.
In the same way the Chief Priests, with the Teaches of the Law and Councillors, said in mockery:
42 „Teisi inimesi ta päästis, aga ennast ta ei suuda päästa!“ütlesid nad. „Kui ta tõesti on Iisraeli kuningas, tulgu ta risti pealt maha ja siis me usume teda!
“He saved others, but he cannot save himself! He is the ‘King of Israel’! Let him come down from the cross now, and we will believe in him.
43 Ta usaldab Jumalat nii veendunult − las siis Jumal päästab ta nüüd, kui tahab, sest ta väitis: „Ma olen Jumala Poeg.““
He has trusted in God; if God wants him, let him deliver him now; for he said ‘I am God’s Son.’”
44 Kurjategijad, kes olid koos temaga risti löödud, solvasid teda samamoodi.
Even the robbers, who were crucified with him, reviled him in the same way.
45 Keskpäevast kuni kella kolmeni kattis kogu riiki pimedus.
After mid-day a darkness came over all the country, lasting till three in the afternoon.
46 Umbes kella kolme ajal karjus Jeesus valju häälega: „Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?“, mis tähendab: „Mu Jumal, mu Jumal, miks sa oled mind maha jätnud?“
And about three Jesus called out loudly: “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabacthani” — that is to say, ‘O my God, my God, why has thou forsaken me?’
47 Kui mõned seal seisjaist seda kuulsid, ütlesid nad: „Ta kutsub Eelijat!“
Some of those standing by heard this, and said: “The man is calling for Elijah!”
48 Otsekohe jooksis üks neist, haaras käsna, kastis selle äädikasse, pani kepi otsa ja andis seda Jeesusele juua.
One of them immediately ran and took a sponge, and, filling it with common wine, put it on the end of a rod, and offered it to him to drink.
49 Aga teised ütlesid: „Jätke ta rahule. Vaatame, kas Eelija tuleb teda päästma.“
But the rest said: “Wait and let us see if Elijah is coming to save him.” [However another man took a spear, and pierced his side; and water and blood flowed from it.]
50 Jeesus karjatas taas valju häälega ja tegi viimase hingetõmbe.
But Jesus, uttering another loud cry, gave up his spirit.
51 Täpselt siis kärises templi eesriie ülevalt alla lõhki. Maapind värises, kaljud lõhenesid
Suddenly the Temple curtain was torn in two from top to bottom, the earth shook, the rocks were torn asunder,
52 ja hauad avanesid. Paljud neist, kes olid elanud head elu ja surmaunne jäänud, äratati ellu.
the tombs opened, and the bodies of many of God’s People who had fallen asleep rose,
53 Pärast Jeesuse ülestõusmist läksid nad surnuaedadest pühasse linna, kus paljud neid nägid.
and they, leaving their tombs, went, after the resurrection of Jesus, into the Holy City, and appeared to many people.
54 Kui tsentuurio ja need, kes koos temaga Jeesust valvasid, nägid maavärinat ja seda, mis juhtus, olid nad kohkunud ja ütlesid: „See oli tõesti Jumala Poeg!“
The Roman Captain, and the men with him who were watching Jesus, on seeing the earthquake and all that was happening, became greatly frightened and exclaimed: “This must indeed have been God’s Son!”
55 Ka paljud naised jälgisid eemalt, need, kes olid Jeesust Galileast saadik järginud ja olid teda toetanud.
There were many women there, watching from a distance, who had accompanied Jesus from Galilee and had been attending on him.
56 Nende hulgas olid Maarja Magdaleena, Jaakobuse ja Joosepi ema Maarja ning Sebedeuse poegade ema.
Among them were Mary of Magdala, Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of Zebediah’s sons.
57 Kui saabus õhtu, läks Arimaatiast pärit rikas mees nimega Joosep (kes oli ka Jeesuse jünger)
When evening had fallen, there came a rich man belonging to Ramah, named Joseph, who had himself become a disciple of Jesus.
58 Pilaatuse juurde ja küsis Jeesuse surnukeha. Pilaatus andis korralduse see temale üle anda.
He went to see Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus; upon which Pilate ordered it to be given him.
59 Joosep võttis surnukeha ja mähkis selle uude linasesse riidesse
So Joseph took the body, and wrapped it in a clean linen sheet,
60 ning asetas selle oma uude hauda, mis oli kaljusse tahutud. Ta veeratas haua sissepääsu ette suure kivi ja lahkus.
and laid it in his newly-made tomb which he had cut in the rock; and, before he left, he rolled a great stone against the entrance of the tomb.
61 Maarja Magdaleena ja teine Maarja istusid seal, haua vastas.
Mary of Magdala and the other Mary remained behind, sitting in front of the grave.
62 Järgmisel päeval, pärast valmistuspäeva, läksid ülempreestrid ja variserid koos Pilaatuse juurde.
The next day — that is, the day following the Preparation-Day — the Chief Priests and Pharisees came in a body to Pilate, and said:
63 Nad ütlesid talle: „Isand, meile meenub, et see petis ütles veel elus olles: „Ma tõusen kolme päeva pärast surnuist üles.“
“Sir, we remember that, during his lifetime, that impostor said ‘I shall rise after three days.’
64 Anna korraldus valvata hauda kuni kolmanda päevani. Nii ei saa tema jüngrid tulla ja ta keha varastada ning rahvale öelda, et ta tõusis surnuist üles. Muidu oleks pettus lõpuks hullem kui alguses.“
So order the tomb to be made secure till the third day. Otherwise his disciples may come and steal him, and then say to the people ‘He has risen from the dead,’ when the latest imposture will be worse than the first.”
65 „Ma annan teile sõdurite vahtkonna, “ütles Pilaatus neile. „Minge nüüd ja kindlustage seda nii hästi kui võimalik.“
“You may have a guard,” was Pilate’s reply; “go and make the tomb as secure as you can.”
66 Nii nad läksid ja kindlustasid haua, panid sissepääsu ees olevale kivile pitseri ja seadsid sõdurid valvepostile.
So they went made the tomb secure, by sealing the stone, in presence of the guard.
