Marqqossa 14
1 Pazigane uketh muussa ba7ale galasay bonchetanas namm7u galasi atishin qesista halaqatine Muse woga tamarsizayti Yesusa balethi oykidi wodhdana ogge koyida.
It was only two days before the [people] ([celebrated/started to celebrate]) [for one week the] festival [which they called] Passover. During those days they also celebrated the festival of (Unleavened Bread/[eating] bread that had no yeast in it). The chief priests and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws were planning how they could seize Jesus secretly. [They wanted to accuse him in front of the Roman authorities] so that they would execute him.
2 Gido atin asay meto medhonta mala ha bocho ba7ale galasatan gidoppo gida.
But they were saying to one another, “We must not [do it] during the celebration, because, [if we do it then], the people will [be very angry with us and] riot!”
3 Izi Biittaniya giza son issi kasse inchiracha hargi paxida Simona getetizaysa son quumma bolla dishin waagay daro al7o gidida nadorse getetiza shitoy kummi utida philqaxe ooykida issi macashaya philqaxeza menthada shitoza Yesusa hu7e bolla gusadus.
Jesus was at Bethany [town] in the house of Simon, whom [Jesus had healed from] leprosy. While they were eating, a woman came [to him]. [She was carrying] a stone jar that contained expensive [fragrant] perfume called nard. She opened the jar and then she poured the perfume on Jesus’ head.
4 Hen gadan diza asatappe issi issi asati “haysi shitozi aazas wogay baynda gukize?” gidi ba garsan hanqettida.
One of the people [who were present] became angry and said to the others, “([It is terrible that she] wasted that perfume!/[Why did she] waste that perfume?) [RHQ]
5 Shitozi bayzo bayzidakko heedzdzu xeetu dinareppe bollara bayzetidi manqotas immistanashin, giidi macashiyokka kadhida.
It could have been sold {[We] could have sold it} for (a huge amount of money/an amount of money for which a person works for a year), and then [the money] could have been given {[we] could have given [the money]} to poor people!” So he rebuked her.
6 Gido atin Yesusay istas hizgidees “agitte hano macashayo aazas wayseti? Iza tass lo7o miish oothadus.
But Jesus said, “Stop [scolding] her! She has done to me what I [consider to be] very appropriate/delightful. So (you should not bother her!/why do you bother her?) [RHQ]
7 Manqoti ay wodekka intenara detees. Inte koyda wode aydekka ista madanas danda7ista shin ta gidikko wursso wode intenara dikke.
You will always have poor people among you. So you can help them whenever you want to. But I will not [be here among] you much longer. [So it is good for her to show now that she appreciates me].
8 Hanna ba oothanas danda7izari keena oothadus. Tass mogos gidana mala ta asho kasista tiyadus.
[It is appropriate that] she has done what she was able to do. [It is as if she knew that I was going to die soon] and has anointed my body for their burying it.
9 Ta intes tummu gays haysi mishiracho qalay alame kumethan sabaketizason awankka iza othidaysi izo hassa7isizaz gididi hasa7istana.
I will tell you this: Wherever the good message [about me] is preached {people preach the good message} throughout the world, what she has done will be told {people will tell others what she has done [to me]}, and as a result people will remember her.”
10 Hessappe guye tamane namm7atappe issay Asqoroto Yuday Yesusa athi immans qesista halaqatakko bidess.
Then Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]) went to the chief priests in order to [talk to them about] helping them to seize Jesus. He did that [even though] he was one of the twelve [disciples]
11 Istika hessa siyidi ufa7etida, izas mishe immans izara gigida. Hessa gish Yesusa athi immanas giga wode nagishe gamm7idees.
When they heard [what he was willing to do for them], they were very happy. They promised that they would give him [a large amount of] money [for doing that. Judas agreed, so they gave him the money]. As a result, he [began] watching for an opportunity (to betray Jesus/to enable Jesus’ enemies to seize him).
12 Paziga dorssi shuketiza uuketha mussa bonchiza koyro galas Yesusa kalizayti Yesusakko shiqidi “Paziga ka7o manaso awan gigisana mala koyaz?” gi oychida.
[Two days later], when they killed the lambs [for the] festival at the beginning of the week when [people ate] bread that had no yeast in it, Jesus’ disciples said to him, “Where do you want us to go and prepare the meal for the Passover [celebration] in order that you can eat it [with us]?”
13 Izikka bena kalizaytappe namm7ata hizgi kitides “Gede katama biitte, inte bishin issi hath otora tokidadaey intenara gagana.
So he [chose] two of his disciples [to prepare everything]. He said to them, “Go into [Jerusalem] city. A man will meet you, who will be carrying a large jar full of water. Follow him.
14 Izi bidi gelizaso gakanas iza kalitte. Keethadezas “Astamarey nena, tana kalizaytara paziga ka7o manas tas gidiza immatha shemposoy awayse gidees” giitte.
When he enters [a house], say to the man who owns the house, ‘[Our] teacher wants us to prepare [the meal of] the Passover celebration so that he can eat it with us his disciples. (Please show us the room that he [arranged with you about]./Where is the room that he [arranged with you about]?) [RHQ]’
15 Izikka bolla poqe bolla diza gigi utida aaho so intena bessana, hen izan gigisitte.”
He will show you a large room that is on the upper floor [of the house]. It will be furnished and ready [for us to eat a meal in it]. Then prepare the meal there for us.”
16 Iza kalizaytikka kezidi gede katama bida. Wurikka Yesusay gida mala gidi beetides, pazigakka hen gigisida.
So the [two] disciples left. They went into the city and found [everything] to be just like he had told them. They prepared the [meal for] the Passover [celebration, and then returned to Jesus and the other disciples].
17 Gadey qamishin Yesusay bena kaiza tammane namm7atara gakidees.
When it was evening, Jesus arrived [at that house] with the twelve [disciples].
18 Issti madan dishin ta intess tummu gays inte gidoppe issay izikka tanara issippe mizaysi tana athi immana” gidees.
As they were all sitting there [and eating], Jesus said, “Listen carefully to this: One of you will enable my enemies to seize me. Specifically, it is one of you who [will do this in spite of the fact that he] is eating with me [right now]!”
19 Istika muzotidi “Tanesha? tanesha? gidi issay issay Yesusa” ooychida.
The disciples became very sad and they said to him one by one, “Surely (it is not I!/I am not the one, am I?) [RHQ]”
20 Izikka istas “Tamane namm7atappe issay tanara ba kushe keren yedizadekko.
Then he said to them, “It is one of [you] twelve [disciples], the one who is dipping [bread] into the [sauce in the] dish along with me.
21 Kasse xafetida mala asa nay iza gish hayqana shin asa na athi immizades aye! He uray kasse yeletonta agidakko izas lo7okoshin!” gides.
It is certain that [I], the one who came from heaven, will [die], because that is what has been {what [the prophets] have} written about me. But there will be terrible [punishment] for the man by whom I will be betrayed {who will (betray me/help my enemies to seize me)}! In fact, it would be better for that man if he had never been born!”
22 Issti mishin uketha eeki anjidinne menthidi bena kalizaytas hayssa ta asho heyte gi imidees.
While they were eating, he took [a flat loaf of] bread and thanked God for it. Then he broke it [into pieces] and gave it to them and said to them, “This [bread represents] [MET] my body. Take it [and eat it].”
23 Ushakka denthi galatidi istas imin isti wurikka uyida.
Afterwards, he took a cup [that contained wine] and thanked [God for it]. Then he gave it to them, and then, as they all drank from it,
24 Qasse “Haysi darotta gish gukkana ta ooratha caqo suutha.
he said to them, “This [wine represents] [MET] my blood, which is about to be shed {which is about to flow from my body} [when my enemies kill me]. With this blood I [will sign] the agreement [that God has made to forgive the sins of] many people.
25 Ta intes tummu gays ooratha woyneppe gigida usha Xoossa kawotethan ta uyana galasiyo gakanas namm7antho hayssa uyikke.” gides.
I want you to know this: I will not drink any more wine in this way until the time when I drink it with a new [meaning] when I begin to rule as a king.”
26 Hessafe guye mazmure issippe yexidi pude Dabirazaytte zumma bolla kezida.
After they sang a hymn, they went out toward Olive [Tree] Hill.
27 Yesusay “Ta hemizaysa shocana he wode iza dorssati laletna geteti xafetidaysa mala inte wurikka tanan duphistana.
[While they were on their way], Jesus said to them, “It has been {[The prophets] have} written [in the Scriptures that God said about me], ‘I will kill the shepherd and his sheep will scatter.’ [Those words will come true. When they are about to capture me], all of you will leave me and run away.
28 Ta dendidaysappe guye gidikko ta inteppe kasistada Galila bana.” gides.
But after I have been made {[God] has made me} alive again, I will go ahead of you to Galilee [district and meet you there].”
29 Phixirosaykka “asay wuri dhuphetikkokka tani dhuphetikke!” gides.
Then Peter said to him, “Perhaps all the [other disciples] will leave you, but not I! I will not [leave you]!”
30 Yesusaykka “Ta ness tumu gays hach qama kutoy namm7u to wasana gakanas neni tana heedzdzu to kadana” gidees.
Then Jesus said to him, “The truth is that this very night, before the rooster crows a second time, you yourself will deny three times [that you know] me!”
31 Phixirosay qass “ta nenara hayqizakkokka mulekka nena kadikke” gidi kehi minthi yotidees. Hankoytikka wuri izaysatho gida.
But Peter replied strongly, “Even if they kill me [as I defend] you, I will never deny [that I know] you!” And all [the other disciples] said the same thing.
32 Hessappe guye Getesemane getetizaso bida Yesusaykka bena kalizayta “Tanni wosishin inte hayssan gamm7isitte” gidees.
[On the way], Jesus and the disciples came to the place that [people] call Gethsemane. Then he said to [some/eight of] his disciples, “Stay here while I pray!”
33 Phixirosa, Yaqobene Yanisa benara eeki bidees. Kehi muzotideesne hirgidees.
Then he took Peter, James, and John with him. He became extremely distressed, and he said to them,
34 Qassekka isttas “Ta shempiya daro muzotadus inte han dishittene dhiskonta nagitte” gidees.
“I [SYN] am very sorrowful. [It is as if] I were about to die. [You men] remain here and stay awake!”
35 Istta achappe guthu gede paqidi biitta bolla gufanidi hanikko he sateya izappe adhana mala wosidees.
He went a bit further and threw himself on the ground. Then he prayed that if it were possible, he would not [have to suffer] [MTY].
36 “Abba aabbo, ness wuri danda7etees, hayssa waye xu7a tappe hasa. Gido attin ne sheneppe atin ta sheney hanoppo” gides.
He said, “O my Father, [because] you are able to do everything, rescue me so that I do not have to suffer [now] [MTY]! But do not [do] what I want. Instead, [do] what you want!”
37 Izi heppe simi yishin iza kalizayti dhisikidayta beyidees. Phixirsokka “Simona dhiskadi? Haray ato shin issi satekka sura utada nagoy nena xonide?
Then he returned and found his [disciples] sleeping. He [woke them up and] said, “Simon! ([I am disappointed that] you fell asleep and that you were not able to stay awake for just a short time!/[Why is it that] you fell asleep and that you were not able to stay awake for just one hour?) [RHQ]”
38 Inte pacen gelonta mala begidi wositene minite. Shempoy gigeti utidees shin ashoy gidikko daburancha.” gides.
[And he said to them], “You want [to do what I say], but you are not strong enough [MTY] [to actually do it]. So keep awake and pray in order that you can resist when [something like this] tempts you!”
39 Qassekka bidi koyro wosoysathokka wosides.
Then he went away again and prayed again what he prayed before.
40 Izi namm7antho simi yishin issta ayfen dhiskoy dexxin dhiskidayta demides, shin issti izas ay zaranakonne eribeytena.
When he returned, he found that they were sleeping again because they were [so] sleepy that they could not keep their eyes open. [Because they were ashamed], they did not know what to say to him [when he awakened them].
41 Hezantho yidi “Ha7ikka inte zin7idi shempeti? Ha7i gidana, sateyakka gakkadus hekko asa nay nagaranchata kushen adhi immistana.
[Then he went and prayed again]. He returned a third time; [and he found them sleeping again]. He [woke] all of [them and] said to them, “([I am disappointed that you are] sleeping again!/[Why are you] sleeping again?) [RHQ] [You have slept] enough. The time [for me to suffer] is about to begin. Look! Someone is about to enable sinful men to seize me, the one who came from heaven.
42 Ane eqitte boss, tana athi immandey yidees.” gides.
[So] get up! Let’s go [toward him] Look! Here comes the one who is enabling them to seize me!”
43 Izi buro hasa7an dishin tamane namm7atappe issay Yuday yidees. Izara issippe qesse halaqatapene Muse woga tamarsizaytappe kitetida daro asay githa mashanne durqa oykidi yidees.
While he was still speaking, Judas [arrived]. [Even though he was] one of [Jesus’] twelve [disciples], he came [to enable Jesus’ enemies to seize him]. A crowd who carried swords and clubs was with him. The [leaders of] the Jewish Council had sent them.
44 Iza athi immana Yuday istas “asa gidoppe ta yerizadey iza gidida gishas oykidi lo7ethi nagi efiite” gidi kaseti malata immi wothides.
[Judas], who was (betraying Jesus/helping Jesus’ enemies to seize him), had [previously] told this crowd, “The man whom I kiss is the one [whom you want. When I kiss him], seize him and lead him away [while you guard him] carefully.”
45 Gakida malara Yuday Yesusakko shiqidi “Astamare” gidi yeridees.
So, when Judas arrived, he immediately went to Jesus and said, “My teacher!” Then he kissed Jesus [on his neck/cheek].
46 Assatikka Yesusa oykida.
Then [the crowd] seized Jesus.
47 Iza achan eqida issay masha shohoppe shodidi qessista halaqa ashkara hayth qanxidees.
But one of the [disciples] who was standing nearby drew his short sword. He struck the servant of the high priest with it [to kill him, but he only] cut off his ear.
48 Yesusaykka istas “Panga mala tana oykkana mashane durqa oykidi yeti?
Jesus said to them, “([It is ridiculous that] you come [here to seize] me with swords and clubs, as if I were a bandit!/Have you come [here to seize] me with swords and clubs, as if I were a bandit [RHQ]?) Day after day I was with you in the Temple [courtyard] teaching [the people] Why did you not seize me then? [But this is happening] in order that [what the prophets have written in] the Scriptures [about me] may be fulfilled {may happen}.”
49 Wontin wontin maqidassen tamarsashe ta intenara dishin oykibeykista shin kasse xafetidaysi polistan mala haysi hanidees.” gides.
50 Hessa wode iza kalizayti wuri iza yegi agi bida.
All [the disciples at once] left him and ran away.
51 Be kaloteth qeeri naxalan kamida issi nay Yesusa kalishin asssay iza oykin
At that time, (a young man/I) was following Jesus. He/[I was] wearing only a linen cloth around his/my body. The crowd seized him/me.
52 nazi naxala yegidi kallo kichidees.
But, [as he/I pulled away from them], he/I left behind the linen cloth [in their hands], and then he/I ran away naked.
53 Yesusakka gede qessista halaqakko efida. Qessista halaqati dere cimatine Muse woga tamarsizayti hen issippe wuri shiqida.
The men [who had seized] Jesus led him away to [the house where] the supreme priest [lived]. All of the Jewish Council were gathering [there].
54 Phixirosaykka Yesusa hahora kalishe qessista halaqa gibe gakanas bidees. Izi hen utidi hara asatara tamma ho7ishin
Peter followed Jesus at a distance. He went into the courtyard [of the house] where the supreme priest [lived], and sat there with the men who guarded [the house of the supreme priest]. He was warming himself beside a fire.
55 qessista halaqatinne dere cimmati wuri Yesusa wodhanas markatana ass koyida shin demanas danda7ibeytena.
The chief priests and all the rest of the Jewish council [had already] tried to find people who would tell lies about Jesus [in order that they could convince the Roman authorities] to execute him. But they did not succeed,
56 Daroti iza bolla wordora markatikkokka markata qalay oyketibeynna.
because, although many people spoke lies about him, they contradicted each other.
57 Issi issi markati;
[Finally], some stood up and accused him falsely by saying,
58 “Haysi adezi (Ta asa kushen kexetida maqidasse lalada asa kushey bochontaz hara maqidasse heedzdzu galasara ta kexana) gishin nu siyidos” gi markatida.
“We heard him when he said, ‘I will destroy this Temple that was built by men, and then within three days I will build another temple (without help from anyone else/that human hands will not build).’”
59 Gidikokka ista markatethi issi bolla woodhibeyna.
But, what [some of] these men said also did not agree with [what others of them said].
60 Qessista halaqaykka ista sinthan dendidi eqqi “Hayti ne bolla markatizaysi aze? Ne aazas duuna zariki?” gidi Yesusa oychidees.
Then the supreme priest [himself] stood up in front of them and said to Jesus, “Are you not going to reply? What [do you say about] all the things that they are saying in order to accuse you?”
61 Gido atin Yesusay isstas aykokka zaronta coo7u gidees. Qessista halaqay qassekka “Anjetida Xoossa nay kirstosay nene?” gi oychidees.
But Jesus was silent and did not reply [DOU]. Then the supreme priest [tried again]. He asked him, “Are you the Messiah? [Do you say that you are] (the Son of God/the man who is also God)?”
62 Yesusaykka zaridi “Ee tanank, asa nay woqama Xoossa ushachana utishininne salo sharara yishin inte iza beyana” gides.
Jesus said, “I am. Furthermore, you will see me, the one who came from heaven, [ruling] beside God, who is completely powerful. [You will also see me] coming down through the clouds in the sky!”
63 Qessista halaqay ba mayo dakidi “Nuss hara aza marka koshize?
[In response to Jesus’ words], the supreme priest tore his outer garment. [That was their custom to show that he was shocked that Jesus had said that he was equal to God]. Then he said, “We certainly do not [RHQ] need any [more] people who will testify [against this man],
64 Izi casha qaala Xoossa bolla hasa7ishin inte siyidista ha7ich intes ay milatizee?” gides. Istika izas hayqoy beses giidi wurikka issi qalan pirdida.
[because] you have heard what he said against God! [He claimed to be equal with God] Therefore, what have you decided?” They all said that Jesus was guilty and deserved (to be executed/that they should kill him).
65 Hessa wode issi issi asati iza bolla cuchu cutida, iza ayfe goozi oykidi icishe “anne buro hananaysa yoota” gida. Bagayti qasse shagalan baqishe efida.
Then some of them began spitting on Jesus. They put a blindfold on him, and then they began striking him and saying to him, “[If you are] a prophet, tell us [who hit you]!” And those who were guarding Jesus struck him with their hands.
66 Phixirosay duge bagara hen gibbe gidon dishin qesista halaqa garadistappe issiniya yadaus.
While Peter was outside in the courtyard [of the supreme priest’s house], one of the girls who worked for the supreme priest came [near him].
67 Phixirosay tama ho7ishin tish hista xeladane “Neni Nazirete Yesusara dasa gidikki?” gadus.
When she saw Peter warming himself [beside the fire], she looked at him [closely]. Then she said, “You also were with Jesus, that man from Nazareth [town]!”
68 Izi qass “Ne gizaysade ta erikke, ne gizays tass gelena” gidi kadidees. Hessafe gede penge poqi eeqi dishin herakka kutoy wasidees.
But he denied it by saying, “I do not know or understand [DOU] what you are talking about!” Then he went away [from there] to the gate [of the courtyard].
69 He garadeya iza be7idamala hen eeqida asatas “Haysi adezi izara diza asatappe issadekko!” gada qassekka hasa7adus.
[The] servant girl saw him there and said to the people who were standing nearby, “This man is one of [those who have been with that man they arrested].”
70 Izi qassekka kadides. Gutha wode gamm7ishin hen eqida asati Phixirossa “Neni Galila asa, hessa gish tummappe ne isstappe issade” gida.
But he denied it again. After a little while, one of those who were standing there said to Peter again, “[The way you speak shows that] you also are from Galilee [district]. So it is certain that you are one of those [who accompanied Jesus!]”
71 Gido atin izi qass “inte gizade ta erikke” gishe caqonne bena qangeth oykidees.
But he began to exclaim, “I do not know the man that you are talking about! Because God knows that I am speaking truthfully, may he punish me [if I am lying]!”
72 Herakka kutoy namm7antho wasidees. Phixirosaykka “kutoy namm7a wasanas ne tana hedza kadana” gida Yesusa qalay izas qopetin hiqumidi yekides.
Immediately the rooster crowed a second time. Then Peter remembered what Jesus had said to him [before], “Before the rooster crows a second time, you will deny three times [that you know me.” When he realized that he had denied it three times], he started crying.
