< 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.
These things having said (*ko*) Jesus went out with the disciples of Him beyond the winter stream (of the *N(k)O*) of Kidron where there was a garden into which entered He himself and the disciples of Him.
2 Na rĩrĩ, Judasi, ũrĩa wamũkunyanĩire, nĩooĩ handũ hau, nĩ ũndũ Jesũ nĩacemanagĩria ho kaingĩ na arutwo ake.
Knew now also Judas who is delivering up Him the place, because often gathered together (*ko*) Jesus there with the disciples of Him.
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.
Therefore Judas having procured the cohort and from the chief priests and from the Pharisees officers 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 *NK(o)*) knowing all things that are coming upon Him (he went out *N(k)O*) (also *no*) (speaks *N(k)O*) to them; Whom seek you?
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 to Him; Jesus of Nazareth. He says to them (*ko*) (Jesus: *KO*) I myself am [He]. Had been standing now also Judas who is delivering up Him with them.
6 Rĩrĩa Jesũ aameerire atĩrĩ, “Niĩ nĩ niĩ we,” magĩcooka na thuutha makĩgũa thĩ.
When therefore He said to them (that: *k*) I myself am [He], they drew toward the back 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 you? And they said; Jesus of Nazareth.
8 Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndamwĩra atĩ nĩ niĩ we. Akorwo nĩ niĩ mũracaria-rĩ, rekei andũ aya mathiĩ.”
Answered (*k*) Jesus; I have told you that I myself am [He]. If therefore Me myself you seek, do allow these to go away;
9 Gwekĩkire ũguo nĩgeetha ũhoro ũrĩa aarĩtie ũhinge, rĩrĩa oigire atĩrĩ, “Andũ arĩa waheire gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wao ndeete.”
so that may be fulfilled the word that He had spoken that Those whom You have given Me not I lost of them not [one].
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 then Peter having a sword drew it and he struck the of the high priest servant and cut off of him the (ear *N(k)O*) right; Was now name of the servant Malchus.
11 Nake Jesũ agĩatha Petero atĩrĩ, “Cookia rũhiũ rwaku rwa njora! Gĩkombe kĩrĩa Baba aaheete-rĩ, nĩngwaga gũkĩnyuĩra?”
Said therefore Jesus to Peter; do put the sword (of you *k*) into the sheath. The cup which has given Me the Father certainly surely shall I drink it?
12 Nayo mbũtũ ĩyo ya thigari na mũnene wayo, hamwe na anene acio a Ayahudi makĩnyiita Jesũ. Makĩmuoha na
Then the cohort and the commander and the officers of the Jews took hold of Jesus and bound Him
13 makĩamba kũmũtwara kwa Anasi, ũrĩa warĩ mũthoniwe wa Kaiafa, ũrĩa warĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene mwaka ũcio.
and (they brought away *N(k)O*) (him *k*) to Annas first; he was for father-in-law of Caiaphas who was high priest on the year same.
14 Kaiafa nĩwe wataarĩte Ayahudi atĩ no gũkorwo arĩ wega mũndũ ũmwe akuĩre andũ othe.
Was now Caiaphas the [one] having given counsel to the Jews that it is profitable for one man (to die *N(k)O*) for 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.
Were following now after Jesus Simon Peter and (the *ko*) other disciple. the Now disciple that [one] was known to the high priest also he entered with Jesus into the court 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 at the door outside. Went out therefore the disciple other (who *N(k)O*) (was *k*) known (to the high priest *N(k)O*) 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.”
Says therefore to Peter the servant girl the doorkeeper: Surely also you yourself of the disciples are of the man this? Says he; Not I am.
18 Na rĩrĩ, ndungata na thigari ciarũgamĩte irigiicĩirie mwaki ũrĩa ciakĩtie ikĩwota, tondũ kwarĩ na heho. Petero o nake aarũgamĩte hamwe nao agĩota mwaki.
Had been standing now the servants and the officers a fire of coals having made, for cold it was and they were warming themselves; Was now (also *no*) Peter with them having stood and warming himself.
19 Ihinda-inĩ o rĩu, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene oragia Jesũ ũhoro wa arutwo ake na ũhoro wa ũrutani wake.
Then the high priest questioned Jesus concerning the disciples of Him and concerning the teaching of Him.
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.
Answered to him (*k*) Jesus; I myself openly (have spoken *N(k)O*) to the world. I myself always taught in (the *k*) synagogue and in the temple where (all *N(K)O*) the Jews come together, and in secret I spoke not [anything].
21 Ũranjũria ũguo nĩkĩ? Ũria arĩa mananjigua ngĩaria. Ti-itherũ nĩmoĩ ũrĩa ndanoiga.”
Why Me (do you ask? do ask *N(k)O*) those having heard what I spoke to them. behold they know what said I myself.
22 Rĩrĩa Jesũ oigire ũguo, ũmwe wa thigari iria ciarĩ hau akĩmũgũtha rũhĩ, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũguo nĩguo ũgũcookeria mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene?”
These things now of Him having said one already standing by of the officers gave a blow with the palm to Jesus having said; Thus answer You to the high priest?
23 Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo nĩndoiga ũũru-rĩ, heana ũira wa ũũru ũcio. No angĩkorwo ndaaria ũhoro wa ma-rĩ, wangũthĩra kĩ?”
Answered to him (*k*) Jesus; If evil I spoke, do bear witness concerning the evil; if however rightly, why Me strike you?
24 Nake Anasi akĩmũneana atwarwo arĩ o muohe kũrĩ Kaiafa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene.
Sent then Him Annas 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!”
Was now Simon Peter already standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him; Surely also you yourself of the disciples of Him are? Denied (therefore *O*) he and said; Not I am.
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?”
Says one of the servants of the high priest kinsman being [of him] of whom cut off Peter the ear; Surely I myself you saw in the garden with Him?
27 O rĩngĩ Petero agĩkaana, na o hĩndĩ ĩyo ngũkũ ĩgĩkũga.
Again then denied (*k*) Peter, and immediately a rooster crowed.
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 are leading then Jesus from Caiaphas into the Praetorium; It was now (early. *N(k)O*) and they themselves not entered into the Praetorium so that not they may be defiled but (so that *K*) may eat the Passover.
29 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Pilato akiuma akĩmakora kũu nja akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ mũramũthitangĩra kĩ?”
Went therefore Pilate (out *NO*) to them and (said; *N(k)O*) What accusation bring you against man this?
30 Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Atangĩrĩ muuni watho-rĩ, tũtingĩmũrehe kũrĩ we.”
They answered and they said to him; only except were He (evil *N(K)O*) (doing, *N(k)O*) [then] not would to you we have delivered Him.
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.”
Said therefore to them Pilate; do take Him yourselves and according to the law of you do judge Him. Said (therefore *KO*) to him the Jews; To us not it is permitted to put to death no [one];
32 Maũndũ maya mekĩkire nĩgeetha ciugo iria Jesũ aarĩtie akĩonania mũthemba wa gĩkuũ kĩrĩa agaakua ihingio.
that the word of Jesus may be fulfilled which He had spoken signifying as what death He was about to die.
33 Pilato agĩcooka agĩtoonya gĩikaro kĩu kĩa Barũthi, agĩĩta Jesũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe mũthamaki wa Ayahudi?”
Entered therefore again into the Praetorium Pilate and he called Jesus and said to Him; You yourself are the King of the Jews?
34 Nake Jesũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũcio nĩ woni waku, kana nĩ andũ makwĩrĩte ũhoro wakwa?”
Answered (to him *k*) Jesus; Of (yourself *N(k)O*) you yourself this say or others did say [it] to you concerning Me?
35 Nake Pilato akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndĩkĩrĩ Mũyahudi? Andũ anyu na athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene nĩo makũneanĩte kũrĩ niĩ. Nĩ atĩa wĩkĩte?”
Answered Pilate; surely not ever I myself a Jew am? The nation of You and the chief priests delivered You to me myself; What did You do?
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.”
Answered (*k*) Jesus; The kingdom of Mine not is of world this; if of world this were kingdom of Mine, attendants of Mine they were fighting then would that not I may be betrayed to the Jews; Now however kingdom of Mine not is 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.”
Said therefore to Him Pilate; Then a king are You yourself? Answered Jesus; You yourself say that a king am (I myself. *k*) I myself for this have been born and for this I have come into the world that I may bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is being of the truth hears My the 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.
Says to Him Pilate; What is truth? And this having said again he went out to the Jews and says to them; I myself no [thing] find in Him guilt.
39 No ningĩ nĩ mũtugo wanyu hĩndĩ ya Bathaka ndĩmuohorere mũndũ ũmwe. Nĩmũkwenda ndĩmuohorere ‘mũthamaki wa Ayahudi’?”
It is however a custom with you that one I may release to you at the Passover; wish you therefore I may 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 cried out then again (all *ko*) saying; Not this one but Barabbas! Was now Barabbas an insurrectionist.
