Yohanes 19
1 Ale Pilato na woƒo Yesu kple atam.
Then Pilate tooke Iesus and scourged him.
2 Asrafowo wɔ ŋukuku ɖɔ nɛ. Wodo awu dzĩ nɛ,
And the souldiers platted a crowne of thornes, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple garment,
3 eye woyi egbɔ zi geɖe, eye woɖu fewu le eŋu gblɔ be, “Miedo gbe na wò Yudatɔwo ƒe fia.” Eye woƒo tome nɛ.
And saide, Haile, King of the Iewes. And they smote him with their roddes.
4 Pilato gado go va xexe, eye wògblɔ na Yudatɔwo be, “Mele ekplɔ ge ado goe na mi, gake minya esia be nyemekpɔ fɔɖiɖi aɖeke le eŋu o.”
Then Pilate went foorth againe, and said vnto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may knowe, that I finde no fault in him at all.
5 Wokplɔ Yesu do goe. Wodo awu dzĩ nɛ, tsɔ ŋukuku ɖɔ nɛ. Pilato gblɔ na wo be, “Miaƒe ame lae nye esi.”
Then came Iesus foorth wearing a crowne of thornes, and a purple garment. And Pilate said vnto them, Beholde the man.
6 Esi nunɔlagãwo kple woƒe asrafowo kpɔ Yesu la, wodo ɣli sesĩe be, “Klãe ɖe ati ŋuti! Klãe ɖe ati ŋuti!” Pilato gblɔ na wo be, “Miawo ŋutɔ miyi ɖaklãe ɖe ati ŋu. Nye la, nyemekpɔ fɔɖiɖi aɖeke le eŋuti o.”
Then when the hie Priests and officers sawe him, they cried, saying, Crucifie, crucifie him. Pilate said vnto them, Take yee him and crucifie him: for I finde no fault in him.
7 Yudatɔwo ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Le míaƒe se nu la, ele be wòaku, elabena egblɔ be Mawu ƒe Vi yenye.”
The Iewes answered him, We haue a lawe, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himselfe the Sonne of God.
8 Esi Pilato se nya sia la, vɔvɔ̃ ɖoe wu tsã,
When Pilate then heard that woorde, he was the more afraide,
9 eye wògage ɖe fiasã la me, eye wòbia Yesu be, “Afi ka nètso?” Gake Yesu meɖo nya la ŋu nɛ o.
And went againe into the common hall, and saide vnto Iesus, Whence art thou? But Iesus gaue him none answere.
10 Pilato gblɔ be, “Mèle nya ŋu ɖo ge nam oa? Ènya be ŋusẽ le asinye be maɖe asi le ŋuwò alo mana woaklã wò ɖe ati ŋua?”
Then saide Pilate vnto him, Speakest thou not vnto me? Knowest thou not that I haue power to crucifie thee, and haue power to loose thee?
11 Yesu gblɔ nɛ be, “Màte ŋu akpɔ ŋusẽ aɖeke ɖe dzinye nenye be womena wò tso dziƒo o, eya ta ame si kplɔm vɛ na wò la ƒe nu vɔ̃ sɔ gbɔ wu tɔwò.”
Iesus answered, Thou couldest haue no power at all against me, except it were giuen thee from aboue: therefore he that deliuered me vnto thee, hath the greater sinne.
12 Tso esia dzi la, Pilato di vevie be yeaɖe asi le Yesu ŋu, gake Yudatɔwo ƒe kplɔlawo nɔ ɣlidodo dzi gblɔ nɛ be, “Ne èɖe asi le ame sia ŋu la, ekema mènye Kaisaro xɔlɔ̃ o. Ame si tsɔ eɖokui wɔ fiae la tsi tsitre ɖe Kaisaro ŋu.”
From thence foorth Pilate sought to loose him, but the Iewes cried, saying, If thou deliuer him, thou art not Cesars friende: for whosoeuer maketh himselfe a King, speaketh against Cesar.
13 Esi Pilato se nya siawo la, ekplɔ Yesu do goe, eye wòyi ɖanɔ anyi ɖe eƒe ʋɔnudrɔ̃zikpui la dzi. Woda ʋɔnudrɔ̃zikpui sia ɖe kpe gbadza aɖe dzi le teƒe si woyɔna be Kpe Gbadza (si woyɔna le Hebrigbe me be Gabata).
When Pilate heard this woorde, hee brought Iesus foorth, and sate downe in the iudgement seate in a place called the Pauement, and in Hebrewe, Gabbatha.
14 Enye dzadzraɖoŋkeke na Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la; anye gaƒoƒo adelia me. Pilato gblɔ na Yudatɔwo be, “Miaƒe fia lae nye esi!”
And it was the Preparation of the Passeouer, and about the sixt houre: and hee sayde vnto the Iewes, Beholde your King.
15 Gake wodo ɣli sesĩe be, “Mikplɔe dzoe! Mikplɔe dzoe! Miklãe ɖe ati ŋuti!” Pilato bia wo be, “Maklã miaƒe fia la ɖe ati ŋua?” Nunɔlagãwo ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Fia aɖeke mele mía si o, negbe Kaisaro ko.”
But they cried, Away with him, away with him, crucifie him. Pilate sayde vnto them, Shall I crucifie your King? The high Priestes answered, We haue no King but Cesar.
16 Mlɔeba la, Pilato tsɔ Yesu de asi na wo be woaklãe ɖe ati ŋuti. Ale asrafoawo kplɔ Yesu dzoe.
Then deliuered he him vnto them, to be crucified. And they tooke Iesus, and led him away.
17 Wotsɔ eƒe atitsoga la da ɖe abɔta nɛ be wòakɔ, eye wokplɔe do go le dua me ɖo ta “Ametakoloeƒe” (si woyɔna be “Golgata” le Hebrigbe me).
And he bare his owne crosse, and came into a place named of dead mens Skulles, which is called in Hebrewe, Golgotha:
18 Afi siae woklã Yesu ɖe ati ŋu le, eye woklã adzodala eve hã ɖe eƒe axawo kple eve dzi, eye Yesu nɔ woƒe titina.
Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Iesus in the middes.
19 Pilato ŋlɔ klã ɖe Yesu ƒe atitsoga la tame be, Yesu Nazaretitɔ, Yudatɔwo ƒe Fia.
And Pilate wrote also a title, and put it on the crosse, and it was written, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWES.
20 Afi si woklã Yesu ɖo la medidi tso Yerusalem dua gbɔ o, ale Yudatɔ geɖewo xlẽ nuŋɔŋlɔ la. Woŋlɔ nya siawo ɖe Hebrigbe, Romagbe kple Helagbe me be ame sia ame nate ŋu axlẽe.
This title then read many of the Iewes: for the place where Iesus was crucified, was neere to the citie: and it was written in Hebrewe, Greeke and Latine.
21 Yudatɔwo ƒe nunɔlagãwo va gblɔ na Pilato be, “Mègaŋlɔe be, ‘Yudatɔwo ƒe fia’ o, ke boŋ ŋlɔe be ame sia be yee nye Yudatɔwo ƒe fia.”
Then saide the hie Priests of the Iewes to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Iewes, but that he sayd, I am King of the Iewes.
22 Pilato ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Nu si meŋlɔ la, meŋlɔe xoxo.”
Pilate answered, What I haue written, I haue written.
23 Esi asrafoawo klã Yesu ɖe atia ŋu la, woma eƒe awuwo ɖe akpa ene me, eye woxɔe ɖekaɖekae, ke womema awutewui la ya o. Awu sia nye awu ʋlaya si wometɔ o, ke boŋ ɖe wolɔ̃e bliboe tso dzi va anyi.
Then the souldiers, when they had crucified Iesus, tooke his garments (and made foure partes, to euery souldier a part) and his coat: and the coat was without seame wouen from the toppe throughout.
24 Eya ta wogblɔ na wo nɔewo be, “Menyo be miavuvui o, ke boŋ mina miada akɔ, eye ame si ɖu dzi la naxɔe.” Esia va eme be wòawu ŋɔŋlɔ la nu be, “Woma nye awuwo na wo nɔewo, eye woda akɔ ɖe nye awu ʋlaya dzi.” Alea asrafoawo wɔ.
Therefore they sayde one to another, Let vs not deuide it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be. This was that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which sayth, They parted my garments among them, and on my coate did cast lots. So the souldiers did these things in deede.
25 Nyɔnu aɖewo tsi tsitre ɖe atitsoga la gbɔ. Woawoe nye Yesu dada, Yesu dada nɔvi si woyɔna be Maria, Kleopa srɔ̃ kple Maria si tso Magdala la.
Then stoode by the crosse of Iesus his mother, and his mothers sister, Marie the wife of Cleopas, and Marie Magdalene.
26 Esi Yesu kpɔ dadaa wònɔ tsitre ɖe eƒe nusrɔ̃la si wòlɔ̃na vevie xa la, egblɔ nɛ be, “Nyɔnu, kpɔ ɖa, viwòe nye esi.”
And when Iesus sawe his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loued, he said vnto his mother, Woman, beholde thy sonne.
27 Eye wògblɔ na nusrɔ̃la la hã be, “Kpɔ ɖa, dawòe nye esia!” Eye tso ɣe ma ɣi dzi la, nusrɔ̃la la kplɔ Maria yi eƒe aƒe mee.
Then saide he to the disciple, Beholde thy mother: and from that houre, the disciple tooke her home vnto him.
28 Esi Yesu nya be nu sia nu wu nu azɔ, eye be woawu nya siwo woŋlɔ ɖe mawunya me nu la, egblɔ be, “Tsikɔ le wuyem!”
After, when Iesus knew that all things were performed, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, he said, I thirst.
29 Wain tsitsi kplu ɖeka aɖe nɔ afi ma. Wotsɔe kɔ ɖe kakle tɔxɛ aɖe me eye wotsɔe tɔ ɖe ati nu hetsɔ ɖo nu nɛ be wòano.
And there was set a vessell full of vineger: and they filled a spondge with vineger: and put it about an Hyssope stalke, and put it to his mouth.
30 Esi Yesu ɖɔe kpɔ ko la, egblɔ be, “Ewu enu azɔ,” eye wòde ta to heɖe asi le eƒe gbɔgbɔ ŋu.
Nowe when Iesus had receiued of the vineger, he saide, It is finished, and bowed his head, and gaue vp the ghost.
31 Azɔ enye Dzadzraɖoŋkeke, eye ŋkeke si kplɔ esia ɖo la anye Dzudzɔgbe ŋkeke tɔxɛ. Yudatɔwo medi be ame kukuawo nanɔ atitsogawo ŋu le Dzudzɔgbe ŋkeke la dzi o, eya ta wobia tso Pilato si be wòana woaŋe woƒe afɔwo be woaku kaba ne woate ŋu aɖe woƒe kukuawo le atiawo ŋu.
The Iewes then (because it was the Preparation, that the bodies should not remaine vpon the crosse on the Sabbath day: for that Sabbath was an hie day) besought Pilate that their legges might be broken, and that they might be taken downe.
32 Ale asrafowo va ŋe ame eve siwo woklã kpe ɖe Yesu ŋu la ƒe afɔwo.
Then came the souldiers and brake the legges of the first, and of the other, which was crucified with Iesus.
33 Gake esi wòɖo Yesu dzi la, wokpɔ be eku xoxo, eya ta womeŋe eƒe afɔwo o.
But when they came to Iesus, and saw that he was dead alreadie, they brake not his legges.
34 Esia ta asrafoawo dometɔ ɖeka tsɔ akplɔ tɔ axadame nɛ, eye ʋu kple tsi do go.
But one of the souldiers with a speare pearced his side, and foorthwith came there out blood and water.
35 Ame si kpɔ nu siawo katã teƒe la ɖi ɖase tso eŋu, eye eƒe ɖaseɖiɖi la nye nyateƒe. Enyae be yegblɔ nyateƒe, be miawo hã miaxɔe ase.
And he that sawe it, bare recorde, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might beleeue it.
36 Nuwɔna siawo va eme be woawu mawunya nu be, “Womele eƒe ƒu aɖeke ŋe ge o!”
For these things were done, that the Scripture shoulde be fulfilled, Not a bone of him shalbe broken.
37 Mawunya bubu gblɔ be, “Woakpɔ ame si wotsɔ akplɔ tɔe la dzi.”
And againe an other Scripture saith, They shall see him whom they haue thrust through.
38 Le nu siawo megbe la, Yosef si tso Arimatia la bia Pilato be wòaɖe asi le Yesu ƒe ŋutilã kukua ŋu na ye. Yosef nye Yesu ƒe adzamenusrɔ̃la, elabena enɔ vɔvɔ̃m na Yudatɔwo. Pilato ɖe mɔ nɛ, eye wòva kɔ Yesu ƒe ŋutilã kukua dzoe.
And after these things, Ioseph of Arimathea (who was a disciple of Iesus, but secretly for feare of the Iewes) besought Pilate that he might take downe the bodie of Iesus. And Pilate gaue him licence. He came then and tooke Iesus body.
39 Nikodemo, ame si va Yesu gbɔ le zã me la hã va kplii, eye wòtsɔ mire kple aloe siwo nye atike ʋeʋĩ tɔxɛ aɖe si ƒe home anɔ abe sidi blaadre-vɔ-atɔ̃ ene vɛ.
And there came also Nicodemus (which first came to Iesus by night) and brought of myrrhe and aloes mingled together about an hundreth pound.
40 Wosi ami la nɛ, eye wo kple eve la wotsɔ aklala si me ami ʋeʋĩ yɔ fũu la bla Yesu ƒe ŋutilã kukua ɖe eme. Wowɔ nu sia ɖe Yudatɔwo ƒe kɔnuwo nu.
Then tooke they the body of Iesus, and wrapped it in linnen clothes with the odours, as the maner of the Iewes is to burie.
41 Abɔ aɖe te ɖe afi si woklã Yesu ɖe atitsoga ŋu ɖo la ŋu, eye yɔdo yeye aɖe si me womeɖi ame ɖo kpɔ o la li.
And in that place where Iesus was crucified, was a garden, and in the garden a newe sepulchre, wherein was neuer man yet laid.
42 Esi gbe ma gbe nye Yudatɔwo ƒe Dzadzraɖoŋkeke ta la, wokɔ Yesu ɖaɖi ɖe yɔdo sia me, elabena etsɔ ɖe kpuiƒe na wo.
There then laide they Iesus, because of the Iewes Preparation day, for the sepulchre was neere.
