< Johana 18 >
1 Jesũ aarĩkia kũhooya, agĩthiĩ arĩ na arutwo ake, makĩringa mũkuru wa Karũũĩ ga Kidironi. Mũrĩmo ũcio ũngĩ nĩ haarĩ na mũgũnda wa mĩtamaiyũ, agĩtoonya ho na arutwo ake.
After speaking these things, Jesus went forth with his disciples on the other side of the brook Kidron, where there was a garden into which he entered, he and his disciples.
2 Na rĩrĩ, Judasi, ũrĩa wamũkunyanĩire, nĩooĩ handũ hau, nĩ ũndũ Jesũ nĩacemanagĩria ho kaingĩ na arutwo ake.
Now Judas, the man betraying him, had also known the place, because Jesus also often gathered there with his disciples.
3 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Judasi agĩthiĩ hau mũgũnda-inĩ ũcio, atongoretie mbũtũ ya thigari na anene amwe kuuma kũrĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na Afarisai. Nao nĩmakuuĩte icinga, na matawa, na indo cia mbaara.
Judas therefore having received the band and subordinates from the chief priests and the Pharisees, comes there with lanterns and torches and weapons.
4 Nake Jesũ nĩ ũndũ nĩamenyaga maũndũ marĩa mothe maakirie kũmũkora-rĩ, akiumĩra akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nũũ mũracaria?”
Jesus therefore knowing all the things that were coming upon him, after going forth, he says to them, Whom seek ye?
5 Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ Jesũ wa Nazarethi.” Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Niĩ nĩ niĩ we.” (Nake Judasi ũcio wamũkunyanĩire aarũngiĩ hau hamwe nao.)
They answered him, Jesus the Nazarene. Jesus says to them, I am he. And Judas, the man betraying him had also stood with them.
6 Rĩrĩa Jesũ aameerire atĩrĩ, “Niĩ nĩ niĩ we,” magĩcooka na thuutha makĩgũa thĩ.
When therefore he said to them, I am he, they went backward and fell to the ground.
7 O rĩngĩ Jesũ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nũũ mũracaria?” Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ Jesũ wa Nazarethi.”
Again therefore he questioned them, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus the Nazarene.
8 Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndamwĩra atĩ nĩ niĩ we. Akorwo nĩ niĩ mũracaria-rĩ, rekei andũ aya mathiĩ.”
Jesus answered, I told you that I am. If therefore ye seek me, allow these men to go,
9 Gwekĩkire ũguo nĩgeetha ũhoro ũrĩa aarĩtie ũhinge, rĩrĩa oigire atĩrĩ, “Andũ arĩa waheire gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wao ndeete.”
so that the word that he spoke might be fulfilled, Of whom thou have given me, I lost, no, not one of them.
10 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Simoni Petero, tondũ aarĩ na rũhiũ rwa njora, akĩrũcomora na agĩtinia gũtũ kwa ũrĩo kwa ndungata ya mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene. (Ndungata ĩyo yetagwo Maliku.)
Simon Peter therefore, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's bondman, and cut off his right ear. Now the servant's name was Malchus.
11 Nake Jesũ agĩatha Petero atĩrĩ, “Cookia rũhiũ rwaku rwa njora! Gĩkombe kĩrĩa Baba aaheete-rĩ, nĩngwaga gũkĩnyuĩra?”
Jesus therefore said to Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath. The cup that the Father has given me, shall I, no, not drink it?
12 Nayo mbũtũ ĩyo ya thigari na mũnene wayo, hamwe na anene acio a Ayahudi makĩnyiita Jesũ. Makĩmuoha na
So the band, and the chief captain, and the subordinates of the Jews, arrested Jesus and bound him,
13 makĩamba kũmũtwara kwa Anasi, ũrĩa warĩ mũthoniwe wa Kaiafa, ũrĩa warĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene mwaka ũcio.
and led him away first to Annas. For he was father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
14 Kaiafa nĩwe wataarĩte Ayahudi atĩ no gũkorwo arĩ wega mũndũ ũmwe akuĩre andũ othe.
Now Caiaphas was the man who counseled the Jews that it was expedient for one man to die on behalf of the people.
15 Simoni Petero marĩ na mũrutwo ũngĩ makĩrũmĩrĩra Jesũ. Na tondũ mũrutwo ũcio nĩoĩo nĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, agĩtwarana na Jesũ kũu nja ya mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio mũnene.
And Simon Peter followed Jesus, also the other disciple. But that disciple was known to the high priest, and he went in with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest.
16 No Petero agĩtigwo etereire hau nja ya kĩhingo. Nake mũrutwo ũcio ũngĩ, woĩo nĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, agĩcooka, akĩaria na mũirĩtu ũrĩa warĩ kĩhingo-inĩ agĩtoonyia Petero.
But Peter had stood near the door outside. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the doorkeeper and brought in Peter.
17 Nake mũirĩtu ũcio warĩ kĩhingo-inĩ akĩũria Petero atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ wee ũrĩ ũmwe wa arutwo a mũndũ ũyũ?” Nake agĩcookia agĩkiuga atĩrĩ, “Aca, ndirĩ ũmwe wao.”
Therefore the servant girl (the doorkeeper) says to Peter, Are thou not also of this man's disciples? That man says, I am not.
18 Na rĩrĩ, ndungata na thigari ciarũgamĩte irigiicĩirie mwaki ũrĩa ciakĩtie ikĩwota, tondũ kwarĩ na heho. Petero o nake aarũgamĩte hamwe nao agĩota mwaki.
Now the bondmen and the subordinates had stood, having made a fire of coals because it was cold, and they were warming themselves. And Peter was also standing with them warming himself.
19 Ihinda-inĩ o rĩu, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene oragia Jesũ ũhoro wa arutwo ake na ũhoro wa ũrutani wake.
The high priest therefore asked Jesus about his disciples, and about his doctrine.
20 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Niĩ njarĩirie andũ othe a thĩ itarĩ ũndũ ngũhitha, na ngarutana hĩndĩ ciothe thunagogi-inĩ o na hekarũ-inĩ, kũrĩa Ayahudi othe macemanagia. Ndirĩ ũndũ njaragia na hitho.
Jesus answered him, I spoke in public to the world. I always taught in a synagogue, and in the temple where the Jews always gather together, and I spoke nothing in secret.
21 Ũranjũria ũguo nĩkĩ? Ũria arĩa mananjigua ngĩaria. Ti-itherũ nĩmoĩ ũrĩa ndanoiga.”
Why question thou me? Question those who have heard what I said to them. Behold, these know the things that I said.
22 Rĩrĩa Jesũ oigire ũguo, ũmwe wa thigari iria ciarĩ hau akĩmũgũtha rũhĩ, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũguo nĩguo ũgũcookeria mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene?”
And when he said these things, one of the subordinates standing by gave a slap to Jesus, saying, Answer thou the high priest this way?
23 Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo nĩndoiga ũũru-rĩ, heana ũira wa ũũru ũcio. No angĩkorwo ndaaria ũhoro wa ma-rĩ, wangũthĩra kĩ?”
Jesus answered him, If I spoke wrongly, testify about the wrong, but if correctly, why strike me?
24 Nake Anasi akĩmũneana atwarwo arĩ o muohe kũrĩ Kaiafa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene.
Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.
25 O hĩndĩ ĩyo Simoni Petero arũgamĩte agĩota mwaki, akĩũrio atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ wee ũrĩ ũmwe wa arutwo a mũndũ ũyũ?” Nake agĩkaana, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Aca, ndirĩ ũmwe wao!”
Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. Therefore they said to him, Are thou not also of his disciples? That man therefore denied, and said, I am not.
26 Ndungata ĩmwe ya mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, na yarĩ ya mbarĩ ya mũndũ ũrĩa Petero aatinĩtie gũtũ, ĩkĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Na githĩ niĩ ndirakuonire mũrĩ nake hau mũgũnda-inĩ wa mĩtamaiyũ?”
One of the bondmen of the high priest, being a kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off, says, Did I not see thee in the garden with him?
27 O rĩngĩ Petero agĩkaana, na o hĩndĩ ĩyo ngũkũ ĩgĩkũga.
Peter therefore denied again, and straightaway a cock sounded.
28 Ningĩ Ayahudi makĩruta Jesũ gwa Kaiafa makĩmũtwara gĩikaro-inĩ kĩa Barũthi wa Kĩroma. Hĩndĩ ĩyo kwarĩ rũciinĩ tene, na nĩgeetha matikagwatwo nĩ thaahu, Ayahudi matiatoonyire gĩikaro kĩu; nĩ ũndũ nĩmendaga mahote kũrĩa gĩathĩ kĩa Bathaka.
They lead Jesus therefore from Caiaphas to the Praetorium. And it was early, and they did not enter into the Praetorium, so that they would not be defiled, but that they might eat the Passover.
29 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Pilato akiuma akĩmakora kũu nja akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ mũramũthitangĩra kĩ?”
Pilate therefore went out to them, and said, What accusation do ye bring against this man?
30 Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Atangĩrĩ muuni watho-rĩ, tũtingĩmũrehe kũrĩ we.”
They answered and said to him, If this man were not an evildoer, we would not have delivered him up to thee.
31 Nake Pilato akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Kĩmuoei inyuĩ ene mũkamũciirithie kũringana na watho wanyu.” Nao Ayahudi makĩregana na ũhoro ũcio, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ tũtirĩ na rũũtha rwa kũũraga mũndũ o na ũ.”
Pilate therefore said to them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said to him, It is not permitted for us to kill any man,
32 Maũndũ maya mekĩkire nĩgeetha ciugo iria Jesũ aarĩtie akĩonania mũthemba wa gĩkuũ kĩrĩa agaakua ihingio.
so that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled that he spoke, signifying what kind of death he was going to die.
33 Pilato agĩcooka agĩtoonya gĩikaro kĩu kĩa Barũthi, agĩĩta Jesũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe mũthamaki wa Ayahudi?”
Pilate therefore again entered into the Praetorium, and called Jesus, and said to him, Are thou the king of the Jews?
34 Nake Jesũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũcio nĩ woni waku, kana nĩ andũ makwĩrĩte ũhoro wakwa?”
Jesus answered, Do thou say this of thyself, or did others tell thee about me?
35 Nake Pilato akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndĩkĩrĩ Mũyahudi? Andũ anyu na athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene nĩo makũneanĩte kũrĩ niĩ. Nĩ atĩa wĩkĩte?”
Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests delivered thee to me. What have thou done?
36 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ũthamaki wakwa ti wa gũkũ thĩ. Korwo nĩ ũguo-rĩ, ndungata ciakwa nicingĩndũĩrĩire ndikanyiitwo nĩ Ayahudi. No ũthamaki wakwa nĩ wa kuuma kũndũ kũngĩ.”
Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world my subordinates would have fought so that I would not be delivered to the Jews, but now my kingdom is not from here.
37 Nake Pilato akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo-rĩ, wee ũkĩrĩ Mũthamaki!” Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩwaria ma kuuga atĩ niĩ ndĩ Mũthamaki. Ma nĩ atĩrĩ, gĩtũmi gĩkĩ nĩkĩo gĩatũmire njiarwo, na nĩkĩo ndokire gũkũ thĩ atĩ nyumbũrage ũhoro ũrĩa wa ma. Mũndũ o wothe ũrĩ mwena wa ũhoro wa ma nĩathikagĩrĩria.”
Pilate therefore said to him, Then thou are a king? Jesus answered, Thou say that I am a king. For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the world, that I would testify to the truth. Every man who is of the truth hears my voice.
38 Nake Pilato akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũhoro wa ma nĩ ũrĩkũ?” Aarĩkia kũũria ũguo akiuma nja o rĩngĩ agĩthiĩ kũrĩ Ayahudi akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ndirona gĩtũmi gĩa kũmũthitangĩra.
Pilate says to him, What is truth? And having said this, he went out again to the Jews, and says to them, I find not one cause in him.
39 No ningĩ nĩ mũtugo wanyu hĩndĩ ya Bathaka ndĩmuohorere mũndũ ũmwe. Nĩmũkwenda ndĩmuohorere ‘mũthamaki wa Ayahudi’?”
But there is a custom for you that I should release to you one man at the Passover. Do ye wish therefore I would release to you the king of the Jews?
40 Nao makĩanĩrĩra, magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Aca, tũtikwenda ũcio! Tuohorere Baraba!” Na rĩrĩ, Baraba ũcio aarĩ mũtunyani.
They all cried out again therefore, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. But Barabbas was a robber.
