< Luka 22 >

1 Na rĩrĩ, Gĩathĩ kĩa Mĩgate ĩrĩa Ĩtekĩrĩtwo Ndawa ya Kũimbia, kĩrĩa gĩĩtagwo Bathaka, nĩgĩakuhĩrĩirie,
Now the feast of unleavened bread, called the passover, being near,
2 nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na arutani a watho nĩmacaragia ũrĩa mangĩũragithia Jesũ, nĩgũkorwo nĩmetigagĩra mũingĩ wa andũ.
the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might kill him, for they feared the people.
3 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Shaitani agĩtoonya thĩinĩ wa Judasi ũrĩa Mũisikariota, ũmwe wa arutwo arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ.
Then Satan entered into Judas, surnamed Iscariot, who was of the number of the twelve.
4 Nake Judasi agĩthiĩ kũrĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na kũrĩ anene a arangĩri a hekarũ makarĩkanĩre ũrĩa angĩkunyanĩra Jesũ.
And he went and concerted with the chief priests and officers, how he might deliver Jesus into their hands.
5 Nao magĩkena na magĩtĩkĩra kũmũhe mbeeca.
And they were glad, and agreed to give him a certain sum,
6 Nake agĩĩtĩkĩra, na akĩambĩrĩria gũcaria mweke wa kũneana Jesũ kũrĩ o rĩrĩa hatarĩ na andũ.
which Judas having accepted, watched an opportunity to deliver him up without tumult.
7 Naguo mũthenya wa kũrĩa Mĩgate ĩrĩa Ĩtekĩrĩtwo Ndawa ya Kũimbia ũgĩkinya, rĩrĩa gatũrũme ka Bathaka kaarutagwo igongona.
Now, this day of unleavened bread being come, on which the passover must be sacrificed,
8 Jesũ agĩtũma Petero na Johana, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi mũgatũhaarĩrie irio cia Bathaka, tũrĩe.”
Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare for us the passover, that we may eat it.
9 Nao makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũkwenda tũgacihaarĩrie kũ?”
They asked him, Where shall we prepare it?
10 Akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũgĩtoonya itũũra-inĩ inene-rĩ, nĩmũgũcemania na mũndũ ũkuuĩte ndigithũ ĩrĩ na maaĩ. Mũmũrũmĩrĩre o nginya nyũmba ĩrĩa egũtoonya.
He answered, When you enter the city, you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house which he shall enter,
11 Mwatoonya mwĩre mũndũ ũrĩa mwene nyũmba ĩyo atĩrĩ, ‘Mũrutani aroria atĩrĩ: Nyũmba ya ageni ĩrĩ ha, harĩa ingĩrĩĩra Bathaka na arutwo akwa?’
and say to the master of the house, The Teacher asks you, Where is the guest-chamber, where I may eat the passover with my disciples?
12 Nake nĩekũmuonia nyũmba nene ya igũrũ ĩrĩ na indo kuo. Haarĩriai irio cia Bathaka kuo.”
And he will show you a large upper room, furnished; make ready there.
13 Nao magĩthiĩ, magĩkora maũndũ matariĩ o ta ũrĩa Jesũ aamerĩte. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩhaarĩria irio cia Bathaka.
So they went, and having found everything as he had told them, prepared the passover.
14 Rĩrĩa ihinda rĩakinyire, Jesũ na atũmwo ake magĩikara metha-inĩ.
When the hour was come, he placed himself at table with the twelve Apostles,
15 Nake akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩngoretwo ndĩĩrirĩirie mũno kũrĩanĩra Bathaka ĩno na inyuĩ itananyariirwo.
and said to them, Much have I longed to eat this passover with you,
16 Nĩ ũndũ ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, ndikamĩrĩa rĩngĩ nginya rĩrĩa ĩgaakinyanĩrio ũthamaki-inĩ wa Ngai.”
that I will never partake of another, until it be accomplished in the kingdom of God.
17 Jesũ agĩcooka akĩoya gĩkombe, agĩcookeria Ngai ngaatho, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Oyai, mũnyuanĩre.
Then, taking a cup, he gave thanks, and said, Take this, and share it amongst you;
18 Nĩgũkorwo ngũmwĩra atĩ kuuma rĩu ndikanyua rĩngĩ ndibei ya maciaro ma mĩthabibũ, o nginya rĩrĩa ũthamaki wa Ngai ũgooka.”
for I assure you, that I will not again drink of the product of the vine, until the Reign of God be come.
19 Agĩcooka akĩoya mũgate, na aarĩkia gũcookeria Ngai ngaatho, akĩwenyũranga akĩmahe akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ nĩguo mwĩrĩ wakwa ũrĩa ũheanĩtwo nĩ ũndũ wanyu, ĩkagai ũũ nĩguo mũndirikanage.”
Then he took bread, and having given thanks, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in commemoration of me.
20 Maarĩkia kũrĩa agĩĩka o ũguo, akĩoya gĩkombe, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Gĩkombe gĩkĩ nĩkĩo kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa kĩerũ thĩinĩ wa thakame yakwa ĩrĩa ĩgũitwo nĩ ũndũ wanyu.
He likewise gave the cup, after supper, saying, This cup is the new Institution in my blood, which is shed for you.
21 No rĩrĩ, guoko kwa ũrĩa ũrĩngunyanĩra kũrĩ hamwe na niĩ metha-inĩ ĩno.
Mark, however, that the hand of him who betrays me, is on the table with mine.
22 Mũrũ wa Mũndũ nĩegwĩkwo o ta ũrĩa gũtuĩtwo, no mũndũ ũrĩa ũkũmũkunyanĩra kaĩ arĩ na haaro-ĩ!”
The Son of Man is going away, as has been determined: nevertheless, alas, for that man by whom he is betrayed!
23 Nao makĩambĩrĩria kũũrania gatagatĩ-inĩ kao nĩ ũrĩkũ wao ũngĩka ũguo.
Then they began to inquire among themselves, which of them it could be that would do this.
24 Ningĩ nĩmagĩire na ngarari makĩũrania nũũ gatagatĩ-inĩ kao ũngĩtuuo mũnene.
There had been, also, a contention amongst them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.
25 Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Athamaki a andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ nĩmenenehagia igũrũ rĩa andũ ao; nao acio maathanaga nĩo meĩĩtaga Ateithania.
And he said to them, The king of the nations exercise dominion over them; and they who oppress them, are styled benefactors.
26 No inyuĩ mũtiagĩrĩirwo nĩkũhaana ũguo. Handũ ha ũguo, ũrĩa mũnene gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu agĩrĩirwo kũhaana ta ũrĩa mũnini mũno, nake ũrĩa wathanaga atuĩke ta ũrĩa ũtungataga.
But with you, it must be otherwise: nay, let the greatest amongst you be as the least; and him who governs, as he who serves.
27 Nĩ ũndũ-rĩ, nũũ mũnene, nĩ ũrĩa ũikaraga metha-inĩ kũrĩa kana nĩ ũrĩa ũramũtungata? Githĩ ti ũrĩa ũikaraga metha-inĩ? No niĩ ndũire na inyuĩ, haana ta ũrĩa ũmũtungatagĩra.
For, which is greater, he who is at table, or he who serves? Is not he that is at table? Yet I am amongst you as one who serves.
28 Inyuĩ nĩ inyuĩ mũkoretwo mũrĩ hamwe na niĩ hĩndĩ ya magerio makwa.
You are they who have continued with me in my trials.
29 Na o ta ũrĩa Baba aheete ũthamaki, o na niĩ nĩndamũhe ũthamaki,
And I grant to you, (forasmuch as my Father has granted me a kingdom, )
30 nĩguo mũkarĩĩagĩra na mũkanyuuagĩra metha-inĩ yakwa ũthamaki-inĩ wakwa, na ningĩ mũikarĩire itĩ-cia-ũnene, mũtuagĩre mĩhĩrĩga ĩrĩa ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ ya Isiraeli ciira.
to eat, and to drink at my table, in my kingdom, and to sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 “Simoni, Simoni, atĩrĩ, Shaitani nĩahooete rũtha nĩguo agũthũngũthie o ta ũrĩa ngano ĩthũngũthagio.
The Lord said, also, Simon, Simon, Satan has obtained permission to sift you as wheat;
32 No wee, Simoni nĩngũhooeire nĩgeetha wĩtĩkio waku ndũgathire. Na warĩkia kũnjookerera, ũũmagĩrĩrie ariũ na aarĩ a thoguo.”
but I have prayed for you, that your faith fail not; do you, therefore, when you have recovered yourself, confirm your brethren.
33 Nowe agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, nĩndĩhaarĩirie gũikio njeera o na gũkuanĩra hamwe nawe.”
He answered, Master, I am ready to accompany you, both to prison, and to death.
34 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Petero, ngũkwĩra atĩrĩ, ũmũthĩ ngũkũ ĩtanakũga, nĩũrĩngaana maita matatũ uuge atĩ ndũnjũũĩ.”
Jesus replied, I tell you, Peter, the cock shall not crow to-day, before you have thrice denied that you know me.
35 Jesũ agĩcooka akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Rĩrĩa ndamũtũmire mũtarĩ na kabeti, kana mũhuko, o na kana iraatũ-rĩ, nĩ harĩ kĩndũ mwagire?” Nao magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Gũtirĩ kĩndũ twagire.”
Then he said to them, When I sent you without purse, and bag, and shoes, did you want anything?
36 Nake akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Rĩu akorwo ũrĩ na kabeti kana mũhuko-rĩ, kuua; na akorwo ndũrĩ na rũhiũ rwa njora-rĩ, endia nguo yaku ya igũrũ, ũrũgũre.
But now, said he, let him that has a purse, take it, and likewise his bag; and let him who has no sword, sell his mantle, and buy one;
37 Na ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, ũhoro ũrĩa wandĩkĩtwo atĩ, ‘Nĩataranĩirio hamwe na arĩa aagarari watho’ no nginya ũhinge harĩ niĩ. Nĩgũkorwo maũndũ marĩa maandĩkĩtwo igũrũ rĩakwa nĩ hĩndĩ marahinga.”
for I tell you that this scripture, "He was ranked among malefactors," is now to be accomplished in me: for the things relating to me must be fulfilled.
38 Nao arutwo makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, ta rora haha tũrĩ na hiũ cia njora igĩrĩ.” Nake akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Icio nĩ njiganu.”
They said, Master, here are two swords. He replied, It is enough.
39 Nake Jesũ akiumagara agĩthiĩ Kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Mĩtamaiyũ o ta ũrĩa amenyerete gwĩkaga, nao arutwo ake makĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
Then he went out, and repaired, as he was wont, to the Mount of Olives, and his disciples followed him.
40 Na aakinya ho akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Hooyai mũtikagwe magerio-inĩ.”
Being arrived there, he said to them, Pray that you may not yield to temptation.
41 Akĩehera ho, agĩthĩi ta itĩĩna rĩa harĩa mũndũ angĩhota gũikia ihiga, agĩturia ndu akĩhooya,
Then, being withdrawn from them about a stone's cast; he kneeled down and prayed,
42 akiuga atĩrĩ, “Baba, ũngĩenda-rĩ, njehereria gĩkombe gĩkĩ; no ti ũrĩa niĩ ngwenda, no nĩ ũrĩa wee ũkwenda.”
saying, Father, if thou wilt, take this cup away from me; nevertheless, not my will, but thine be done.
43 Na mũraika akĩmuumĩrĩra oimĩte igũrũ, akĩmuongerera hinya.
And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him.
44 Nake agĩkĩrĩrĩria kũhooya, arĩ na ruo rũnene ngoro-inĩ, nayo thithino yake yahaanaga ta matata manene ma thakame magĩtaata thĩ.
And being in an agony of grief, he prayed the more fervently, and his sweat fell like clotted blood to the ground.
45 Aatiga kũhooya agĩcooka harĩ arutwo, akĩmakora makomete, moorĩtwo nĩ hinya nĩ kĩeha.
Having risen from prayer, and returned to the disciples, he found them sleeping, oppressed with grief;
46 Akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũkomete nĩkĩ? Ũkĩrai mũhooe nĩgeetha mũtikagwe magerio-inĩ.”
and said to them, Why do you sleep? Arise, and pray, lest the trial overcome you.
47 O hĩndĩ ĩyo aragia, hagĩũka gĩkundi kĩa andũ, nake mũndũ ũrĩa wetagwo Judasi, ũmwe wa arutwo arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ, nĩwe wamatongoretie. Agĩkuhĩrĩria Jesũ amũmumunye,
Before he had done speaking, he saw a multitude; and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, walked before them, and came up to Jesus, to kiss him.
48 nowe Jesũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Judasi, ũgũkunyanĩra Mũrũ wa Mũndũ na kũmũmumunya?”
Jesus said to him, Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?
49 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa arũmĩrĩri a Jesũ monire ũrĩa kwerekeire gwĩkĩka, makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, tũmahũũre na hiũ ciitũ cia njora?”
Now, those who were with him, foreseeing what would happen, said to him, Master, shall we strike with the sword?
50 Nake ũmwe wao agĩtinia gũtũ kwa ũrĩo kwa ndungata ya mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene.
And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.
51 Nowe Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ũhoro ũcio nĩũkinye hau!” Agĩcooka akĩhutia gũtũ kwa mũndũ ũcio, akĩmũhonia.
Jesus said, Let this suffice; and touching his ear, he healed him.
52 Ningĩ Jesũ akĩũria athĩnjĩrĩ-Ngai arĩa anene, na anene a arangĩri a hekarũ, o na athuuri, arĩa mookĩte kũmũnyiita atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ndĩ mũtongoria wa akararia a watho, atĩ nĩkĩo muoka kũũnyiita mũrĩ na hiũ cia njora na njũgũma?
Then Jesus said to the chief priests, and the officers of the temple-guard, and the elders, who were come to apprehend him, Do you come with swords and clubs, as in pursuit of a robber?
53 Ndĩratũũraga na inyuĩ hekarũ-inĩ o mũthenya, na mũtirĩ mwageria kũnyiita. No rĩrĩ, rĩĩrĩ nĩrĩo ithaa rĩanyu, ithaa rĩrĩa wathani wa nduma ũraathana.”
While I was daily with you in the temple, you did not attempt to arrest me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
54 Hĩndĩ ĩyo makĩmũnyiita, makĩmũruta hau makĩmũtwara kwa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, nake Petero akĩmũrũmĩrĩra arĩ o haraaya.
Then they seized him, and led him away to the high priest's house. And Peter followed at a distance.
55 Nao maarĩkia gwakia mwaki o nja gatagatĩ na gũikara thĩ hamwe, Petero nake agĩikara thĩ hamwe nao.
When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the court, and were sitting round it, Peter sat down among them.
56 Ndungata ĩmwe ya mũirĩtu ĩkĩmuona na ũtheri wa mwaki aikarĩte hau, ĩkĩmũrora wega, ĩkiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ oima hamwe nake.”
And a maid servant, having observed him sitting by the fire, and viewed him attentively, said, This man also was with him.
57 Nowe agĩkaana ũhoro ũcio, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũirĩtu ũyũ, niĩ ndimũũĩ.”
But he disowned him, saying, Woman, I know him not.
58 Thuutha wa kahinda kanini mũndũ ũngĩ akĩmuona, akiuga atĩrĩ, “O nawe ũrĩ ũmwe wao.” Petero akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ, niĩ ndirĩ wao!”
A little while after, another seeing him, said, You, also, are one of them. Peter answered, Man, I am not.
59 Thuutha wa ithaa rĩmwe, mũndũ ũngĩ akiuga agwatĩirie atĩrĩ, “Hatirĩ nganja mũndũ ũyũ moima hamwe nake, nĩgũkorwo o nake nĩ Mũgalili.”
About an hour after, another averred the same thing, saying, This man was surely with him, for he is a Galilean.
60 Petero agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ, niĩ ndiũĩ ũrĩa ũroiga!” Na hĩndĩ o ĩyo oigaga ũguo, ngũkũ ĩgĩkũga.
Peter answered, Man, I know nothing of this matter. And just as he spoke the word, a cock crew.
61 Mwathani akĩĩhũgũra akĩrora Petero. Nake Petero akĩririkana ũrĩa Mwathani aamwĩrĩte atĩ, “Ũmũthĩ ngũkũ ĩtanakũga nĩũrĩngaana maita matatũ.”
Then the Lord, turning, looked upon Peter, and Peter called to mind the word which the Lord had said to him, Before the cock crow, you will disown me thrice.
62 Nake agĩthiĩ nja, akĩrĩra arĩ na ruo rũingĩ.
And he went out and wept bitterly.
63 Andũ arĩa maarangĩrĩte Jesũ makĩambĩrĩria kũmũnyũrũria makĩmũhũũraga.
Meantime, they who had Jesus in charge, mocked and beat him;
64 Makĩmuoha maitho na gĩtambaya makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Toiga nũũ wakũgũtha.”
and having blindfolded him, struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Divine who it is that smote you.
65 Na nĩmamwĩrire maũndũ mangĩ maingĩ ma kũmũruma.
And many other abusive things they said against him.
66 Rũciinĩ gwakĩa, kĩama gĩa athuuri arĩa atongoria a andũ, hamwe na athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene, na arutani a watho, gĩgĩcemania, nake Jesũ akĩrehwo mbere yao.
As soon as it was day, the national senate, with the chief priests and scribes, were assembled, and having caused him to be brought into their council-chamber, said to him,
67 Makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Akorwo nĩwe Kristũ, twĩre.” Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ingĩmwĩra, mũtingĩnjĩtĩkia,
If you be the Messiah, tell us. He answered, If I tell you, you will not believe:
68 na ingĩmũũria kĩũria, mũtingĩnjokeria.
and if put a question, you will neither answer me, nor acquit me.
69 No kuuma rĩu, Mũrũ wa Mũndũ arĩkoragwo aikarĩte guoko-inĩ kwa ũrĩo kwa Ngai ũrĩa Mwene-Hinya.”
Hereafter the Son of Man shall be seated at the right hand of Almighty God.
70 Othe makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee ũkĩrĩ Mũrũ wa Ngai?” Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩmwamenya nĩ kuuga atĩ nĩ niĩ we.”
They all replied, You are, then, the Son of God? He answered, You say the truth.
71 Makĩũria atĩrĩ, “Tũgũkĩenda ũira ũngĩ wakĩ? Nĩtweiguĩra ũhoro kuuma kanua gake mwene.”
Then they cried, What further need have we of evidence? We have heard enough ourselves, from his own mouth.
