< Mariko 14 >
1 Na rĩrĩ, gwatigaire o mĩthenya ĩĩrĩ nĩguo kũgĩe na Gĩathĩ kĩa Bathaka na kĩa Mĩgate ĩtarĩ Mĩĩkĩre Ndawa ya Kũimbia, nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na arutani a watho nĩmacaragia ũrĩa mangĩnyiitithia Jesũ na njĩra ya wara nĩguo mamũũrage.
Now it was the Passover and the Unleavened [cakes], after two days. And the High-priests and Scribes were seeking, how, with guile, they might secure, and lay him;
2 Makiuga atĩrĩ, “No tũtingĩmũnyiita hĩndĩ ya Gĩathĩ, tondũ andũ mahota kũruta haaro.”
for they were saying—Not in the feast, lest there be an uproar of the people.
3 Na rĩrĩa arĩ itũũra-inĩ rĩa Bethania kwa mũndũ wetagwo Simoni ũrĩa warĩ na mangũ, aikarĩte metha-inĩ akĩrĩa irio-rĩ, nĩhookire mũndũ-wa-nja arĩ na cuba ya maguta ma goro mũno na manungi wega. Akĩũraga cuba ĩyo na akĩmũitĩrĩria maguta macio mũtwe.
And, he being in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he was reclining, there came a woman, holding an alabaster-jar of perfume, pure spikenard, very costly; and breaking the jar she was pouring down [the perfume], upon his head.
4 Andũ amwe arĩa maarĩ kuo makĩigua ũũru, makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Maguta maya maitangwo ũguo nĩkĩ?
But there were some much displeased among themselves—To what end hath, this waste of the perfume happened?
5 Maguta macio nĩmangĩendio mbeeca ikĩrĩte mũcara wa mũndũ wa mwaka mũgima nacio mbeeca icio iheo athĩĩni.” Magĩkũũma mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio marĩ na ũũru.
For this perfume could have been sold for above three hundred denaries, and given unto the destitute! and they were indignant with her.
6 Nowe Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Tiganai nake, mũramũtanga nĩkĩ? Nĩanjĩka ũndũ mwega mũno.
But, Jesus, said—Let her alone! Why are ye reproaching, her? A seemly work, hath she wrought, in me;
7 Athĩĩni marĩkoragwo na inyuĩ hĩndĩ ciothe na no mũmateithie hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe mũngĩenda. No niĩ mũtirĩkoragwo na niĩ hĩndĩ ciothe.
For, always, have ye, the destitute, with you, and whensoever ye please, ye can, unto them, [at any time] do well! But, me, not, always, have ye.
8 Anjĩka o ũrĩa angĩahota. Aitĩrĩria mwĩrĩ wakwa maguta o mbere nĩ ũndũ wa kũhaarĩria gũthikwo gwakwa.
What she had, she used, —She took it beforehand to anoint my body for the burial;
9 Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, kũrĩa guothe Ũhoro-ũyũ-Mwega ũkaahunjagio thĩinĩ wa thĩ, ũguo eka nĩũkeeragwo andũ nĩgeetha aririkanagwo.”
And, verily, say unto you—Wheresoever the glad-message shall be proclaimed throughout the whole world, —also what she did, will be told for a memorial of her.
10 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Judasi Mũisikariota, ũmwe wa arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ, agĩthiĩ kũrĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene agakunyanĩre Jesũ kũrĩ o.
And, Judas Iscariot, who was one of he twelve, went away unto the High-priests, that, him, he might deliver up unto them.
11 Nao magĩkena mũno maigua ũguo na makĩmwĩra nĩmekũmũhe mbeeca. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Judasi agĩcaria mweke wa kũmũneana kũrĩ o.
Now, when they heard, they rejoiced, and promised to give him, silver; and he was seeking how, at a favourable opportunity, he might, deliver him up.
12 Mũthenya wa mbere wa Gĩathĩ kĩa Mĩgate ĩtarĩ Mĩĩkĩre Ndawa ya Kũimbia, o ũrĩa wathĩnjagwo gatũrũme ka Bathaka-rĩ, arutwo a Jesũ makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũkwenda tũthiĩ kũ tũkahaarĩrie nĩguo ũkarĩĩre irio cia Bathaka kuo?”
And, on the first day of the unleavened cakes, when, the passover, they were slaying, his disciples say unto him—Where wilt thou, we depart and make ready, that thou mayest eat the passover?
13 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩtũma arutwo ake eerĩ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi mũtoonye itũũra, na nĩ mũgũcemania na mũndũ ũkuuĩte ndigithũ ya maaĩ. Mũrũmĩrĩrei.
And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto them—Go your way into the city, and there will meet you a man, a jar of water, bearing, —follow him;
14 Kũrĩa egũtoonya mwĩre mwene nyũmba ĩyo atĩrĩ, ‘Mũrutani arooria atĩrĩ, nyũmba yakwa ya ageni ĩrĩ ha, harĩa ingĩrĩĩra irio cia Bathaka na arutwo akwa?’
and, wheresoever he shall enter, say ye unto the householder—The teacher, saith, Where is my lodging, where, the passover, with my disciples, I may eat?
15 Nake nĩekũmuonia nyũmba nene ya igũrũ ĩkĩrĩtwo indo na ĩgathondekwo wega. Haarĩriai irio cia Bathaka iitũ kuo.”
And, he, unto you, will shew, a large upper-room, spread ready, and, there, make ye ready for us.
16 Arutwo acio makiumagara, magĩtoonya itũũra, magĩkora maũndũ mahaana o ta ũrĩa Jesũ aamerĩte. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩhaarĩria irio cia Bathaka.
And the disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found, according as he had said unto them, —and they made ready the passover.
17 Na gwakinya hwaĩ-inĩ, Jesũ agĩkinya kuo marĩ na arutwo arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ.
And, when evening arrived, he cometh, with the twelve.
18 Maikarĩte metha-inĩ makĩrĩa akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ũmwe wanyu nĩekũngunyanĩra, ũmwe wa arĩa mararĩĩanĩra na niĩ.”
And, as they were reclining and eating, Jesus said—Verily, I say unto you—One from among you, will deliver me up, he that is eating with me.
19 Makĩnyiitwo nĩ kĩeha mũno, na o ũmwe akamũũria atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ hihi nĩ niĩ?”
They began to be grieved, and to be saying unto him, one by one, —Can it be, I?
20 Jesũ akĩmacookeria akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũmwe wanyu inyuĩ ikũmi na eerĩ, ũrĩa ũgũtobokanĩria mũgate mbakũri-inĩ hamwe na niĩ.
And, he, said unto them—One of the twelve, he that is dipping with me into the [one] bowl:
21 Mũrũ wa Mũndũ egũthiĩ o ta ũrĩa ũhoro wake wandĩkĩtwo. No mũndũ ũrĩa ũgaakunyanĩra Mũrũ wa Mũndũ kaĩ arĩ na haaro-ĩ! Nĩ kaba mũndũ ũcio atangĩaciarirwo.”
Because, the Son of Man, indeed, goeth his way, —according as it is written concerning him; but alas! for that man, through whom the Son of Man is being delivered up, —Well for him, if that man, had not been born!
22 Ningĩ o makĩrĩĩaga-rĩ, Jesũ akĩoya mũgate, agĩcookia ngaatho, agĩcooka akĩwenyũranga, akĩhe arutwo ake, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Oyai; ũyũ nĩguo mwĩrĩ wakwa.”
And, as they were eating, taking a loaf, he blessed and brake, and gave unto them, and said—Take! this, is, my body;
23 Agĩcooka akĩoya gĩkombe, agĩcookia ngaatho akĩmanengera, nao othe magĩkĩnyuĩra.
And, taking a cup, he offered thanks, and gave unto them; and they, all, drank of it.
24 Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ĩno nĩyo thakame yakwa ya kĩrĩkanĩro, ĩrĩa ĩitĩtwo nĩ ũndũ wa andũ aingĩ.
And he said unto them—This, is, my blood of the covenant, that is to be poured out in behalf of many.
25 Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ndikũnyua rĩngĩ ndibei ya maciaro ma mũthabibũ, nginya mũthenya ũrĩa ngaamĩnyua ĩrĩ njerũ ũthamaki-inĩ wa Ngai.”
Verily, I say unto you—No more, will I in anywise drink of the fruit of the vine, until that day when I shall be drinking it new, in the kingdom of God.
26 Na maarĩkia kũina rwĩmbo, makiumagara magĩthiĩ kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Mĩtamaiyũ.
And, having sung praise, they went forth unto the Mount of Olives.
27 Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ inyuothe nĩmũrĩndirika, nĩgũkorwo nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “‘Nĩngaringa mũrĩithi, nacio ngʼondu ihurunjũke.’
And Jesus saith unto them—Ye, all, will find cause of stumbling, because it is written, —I will smite the shepherd, and, the sheep, will be scattered abroad;
28 No ndaariũka, nĩngamũtongoria gũthiĩ Galili.”
But, after my arising, I will go before you into Galilee.
29 Petero akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “O na othe mangĩgũtirika, niĩ ndingĩgũtirika.”
And, Peter, said unto him—Even if, all, shall find cause of stumbling, certainly not, I.
30 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ngũkwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ũmũthĩ, o ũtukũ ũyũ, ngũkũ ĩtanakũga keerĩ, nĩũrĩngaana maita matatũ.”
And Jesus saith unto him—Verily, I say unto thee, thou, this day, in this night, before that twice a cock crow, thrice, will deny me.
31 No Petero akĩaria ahinyĩrĩirie, akiuga atĩrĩ, “O na angĩkorwo ndĩrĩkuanĩra nawe, niĩ ndingĩgũkaana!” O na acio angĩ othe makiuga o ũguo.
But he, most vehemently, was saying—Even though I must needs die with thee, in nowise, will I, deny thee. Likewise, indeed, were, all besides, saying.
32 Nao magĩkinya handũ heetagwo Gethisemane, nake Jesũ akĩĩra arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Ikarai haha thiĩ ngahooe.”
And they come into an estate the name of which is Gethsemane, and he saith unto his disciples—Sit ye here, while I pray.
33 Akĩoya Petero na Jakubu na Johana agĩthiĩ nao, na o hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩnyiitwo nĩ kĩeha kĩnene na agĩthĩĩnĩka mũno.
And he taketh Peter and James and John with him, and began to be exceedingly amazed, and in great distress;
34 Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ngoro yakwa nĩĩraigua kĩeha mũno o ta ingĩkua, ikarai haha na mwĩhũge.”
and he saith unto them—Encompassed with grief is my soul, unto death: Abide ye here, and be watching.
35 Na aathiathia hanini, akĩĩgũithia thĩ, akĩhooya atĩ korwo kwahoteka, ihinda rĩu rĩmweherere.
And, going forward a little, he fell upon the ground, and was praying that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him;
36 Akiuga atĩrĩ, “Abba, Baba, maũndũ mothe nĩmahotekaga nĩwe. Njehereria gĩkombe gĩkĩ. No ti ũrĩa ngwenda niĩ, no nĩ ũrĩa wee ũkwenda.”
and was saying—Abba! O Father! All things, are possible to thee: Bear aside this cup from me; but not what, I, will, but what, thou, [wilt].
37 Ningĩ agĩcooka harĩ arutwo ake akĩmakora makomete. Akĩũria Petero atĩrĩ, “Simoni, kaĩ ũkomete? Ndũngĩhota gũikara ithaa rĩmwe wĩiguĩte?
And he cometh and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter—Simon! art thou sleeping? Hadst thou not strength, one hour, to watch?
38 Mwĩhũgagei na mũhooyage nĩgeetha mũtikagwe magerio-inĩ. Ngoro nĩyenda, no mwĩrĩ ndũrĩ na hinya.”
Be watching and praying, that ye enter not into temptation: the, spirit, indeed, is willing, but, the flesh, weak.
39 O rĩngĩ agĩthiĩ akĩhooya o ũguo.
And, again, departing, he prayed, [the same thing, saying].
40 Na acooka rĩngĩ harĩo, agĩkora makomete tondũ nĩmahĩtĩtwo nĩ toro. Nao makĩrigwo nĩ ũrĩa mangĩmwĩra.
And, again, coming, he found them sleeping, for their eyes were being, weighed down, —and they knew not what to answer him.
41 Ningĩ agĩũka ihinda rĩa gatatũ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “O na rĩu mũrĩ o toro, o mũhurũkĩte? Kinyiai hau! Ithaa nĩrĩakinya. Atĩrĩrĩ, Mũrũ wa Mũndũ nĩakunyanĩirwo akaneanwo moko-inĩ ma andũ ehia.
And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them—Ye are sleeping the remaining time and taking your rest: —It is enough! the hour hath come! Lo! the Son of Man is being delivered up into the hands of sinners.
42 Ũkĩrai, tũthiĩ! Ũrĩa ũkũngunyanĩra nĩarooka.”
Be rousing yourselves, let us be leading on! Lo! he that is delivering me up, hath drawn near.
43 O akĩaragia-rĩ, Judasi, ũmwe wa arutwo arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ, agĩkinya. Ookire arĩ na gĩkundi kĩnene kĩa andũ marĩ na hiũ cia njora na njũgũma, matũmĩtwo nĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene, na arutani a watho na athuuri.
And, straightway, while yet he is speaking, Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, cometh near, and, with him, a multitude, with swords and clubs, from the High-priests and the Scribes and the Elders.
44 Judasi ũcio wamũkunyanĩire nĩamaheete kĩmenyithia akameera atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩa ndĩmumunya nĩwe; mũmũnyiite na mũmũtware arangĩirwo.”
He that is delivering him up hath given an agreed sign unto them, saying—Whomsoever I shall kiss, he, it is! Secure him, and be leading away, safely.
45 Judasi o rĩmwe agĩthiĩ harĩ Jesũ, akĩmwĩta atĩrĩ, “Rabii!” na akĩmũmumunya.
And, coming, straightway, stepping forward to him, he saith—Rabbi! and openly kissed him.
46 Nao andũ acio makĩguthũkĩra Jesũ makĩmũnyiita.
And, they, thrust their hands on him, and secured him.
47 Na ũmwe wa arĩa maarũngiĩ hakuhĩ agĩcomora rũhiũ rwake rwa njora agĩtinia gũtũ kwa ndungata ya mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene.
[A certain] one of the by-standers, drawing a sword, smote the servant of the High priest, and took off his, ear.
48 Nake Jesũ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ndĩ mũtongoria wa akararia a watho atĩ nĩkĩo muoka kũũnyiita mũrĩ na hiũ cia njora na njũgũma?
And Jesus, answering, said unto them—As against a robber, came ye forth, with swords and clubs, to arrest me?
49 Ndĩratũũraga na inyuĩ hekarũ-inĩ ngĩrutanaga mũthenya o mũthenya na mũtingĩĩnyiita. No rĩrĩ, Maandĩko no nginya mahiinge.”
Daily, was I with you, in the temple, teaching; and ye secured me not. But, that, the Scriptures, may be fulfilled…
50 Hĩndĩ ĩyo arutwo ake othe makĩmũtiganĩria, makĩũra.
And they, all, forsook, him, and fled.
51 Na mwanake ũmwe ũteehumbĩte kĩndũ tiga taama wa gatani akĩrũmĩrĩra Jesũ. Na rĩrĩa maamũnyiitire,
And, a certain young man, was following with him, having cast about himself a fine Indian cloth, over his naked body, —and they are securing him;
52 agĩtiga taama wake nao, akĩũra e njaga.
but, he, leaving behind the cloth, fled naked.
53 Nao andũ acio magĩtwara Jesũ kũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene othe, na athuuri na arutani a watho makĩgomana hamwe.
And they led away Jesus unto the High-priest; and all the High-priests and the Elders and the Scribes gather together.
54 Petero akĩmũrũmĩrĩra arĩ haraaya o nginya agĩkinya nja ya mũciĩ wa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio mũnene. Agĩikarania na thigari kũu agĩota mwaki.
And, Peter, afar of, followed him, as far as within, into the court of the High-priest; and was sitting with the attendants, and warming himself by the light.
55 Na rĩrĩ, athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene, o na Kĩama kĩu gĩothe, magĩcaria ũira wa kũũragithia Jesũ, no mationire.
Now, the High-priest, and all the High-council, were seeking, against Jesus, testimony, with the intent to put him to death, —and were not finding any;
56 Na andũ aingĩ nĩmarutire ũira wa maheeni, no ũira wao ũkĩaga kũiguana.
for, many, were bearing false-witness against him, and the testimonies were not, agreed.
57 Gũgĩcooka gũkĩrũgama andũ amwe, nao makĩruta ũira wa maheeni makiuga atĩrĩ,
And some, standing up, were bearing false-witness against him, saying—
58 “Nĩtwaiguire akiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩngatharia hekarũ ĩno yakĩtwo nĩ andũ, na njake ĩngĩ ĩtakĩtwo nĩ mũndũ na ihinda rĩa mĩthenya ĩtatũ.’”
We, heard him saying, I, will pull down this shrine, the one made by hand, and, in three days, another, not made by hand, will I raise.
59 No o na moiga ũguo, ũira wao ũkĩaga kũiguana.
And, not even so, was the testimony, agreed.
60 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene akĩrũgama gatagatĩ kao, akĩũria Jesũ atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ wee ũtarĩ na ũndũ ũngĩcookia? Nĩ ũhoro ũrĩkũ ũyũ ũrathitangwo naguo?”
And, the High-priest rising up into the midst, questioned Jesus, saying—Answerest thou, nothing? What are these, against thee, witnessing?
61 No Jesũ agĩkira ki, na ndacookie ũndũ. O rĩngĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio mũnene akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe Kristũ, Mũrũ wa Ũrĩa Mũrathime?”
But, he, was silent, and answered, nothing. Again, the High-priest was questioning him, and saith unto him—Art, thou, the Christ the Son of the Blessed?
62 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ nĩ niĩ. Na nĩmũkona Mũrũ wa Mũndũ aikarĩte guoko-inĩ kwa ũrĩo kwa Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Hinya, na agĩũka arĩ igũrũ rĩa matu.”
And Jesus said—I, am; and ye shall see the Son of Man—sitting, on the right hand, of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.
63 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio mũnene agĩtembũranga nguo ciake. Akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Tũgũkĩbatario nĩ aira angĩ a kĩ?
And, the High-priest, having rent asunder his inner-garments, saith—What, further, need have we, of witnesses?
64 Nĩmweiguĩra akĩruma Ngai. Mũgwĩciiria atĩa?” Nao othe makĩmũtuĩra atĩ aagĩrĩirwo nĩ kũũragwo.
Heard ye the profanity? What, to you, doth it appear? And they, all, condemned him to be, worthy, of, death.
65 Hĩndĩ ĩyo amwe makĩambĩrĩria kũmũtuĩra mata, na makĩmũhumbĩra ũthiũ, makĩmũringa na ngundi makĩmwĩraga atĩrĩ, “Ta kĩrathe ũhoro.” Nacio thigari ikĩmuoya, ikĩmũhũũra.
And some began to be spitting at him, and, covering up his face, and to be buffeting him, and saying to him—Prophesy! And, the attendants, with smart blows, took him.
66 Na hĩndĩ ĩyo Petero aikarĩte o hau nja-rĩ, ũmwe wa ndungata cia airĩtu cia mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene akĩgerera ho.
And, Peter, being, below in the court, there cometh one of the maid-servants of the High-priest;
67 Rĩrĩa oonire Petero agĩota mwaki, akĩmũrora wega. “Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘O nawe uuma hamwe na Jesũ ũcio wa Nazarethi’.”
and, seeing Peter warming himself, having looked at him, saith—And, thou, wast, with the Nazarene—with Jesus.
68 Nowe Petero agĩkaana ũhoro ũcio, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndiũĩ ũhoro ũcio, o na ndiramenya nĩ atĩa ũroiga,” na akiumagara agĩthiĩ itoonyero-inĩ.
But, he, denied, saying—I neither know [him], nor do I well understand what, thou, sayest; and went out into the porch.
69 Na rĩrĩa ndungata ĩyo ya mũirĩtu yamuonire ho, o rĩngĩ ĩkĩĩra arĩa maarũngiĩ ho atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ nĩ ũmwe wao.”
And, the maid-servant, seeing him, began, again, to be saying unto the by-standers—This one, is, from among them.
70 No Petero agĩkaana ũhoro ũcio rĩngĩ. Thuutha wa kahinda kanini, arĩa maarũgamĩte hakuhĩ makĩĩra Petero atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ ũrĩ ũmwe wao, nĩ ũndũ wĩ Mũgalili.”
But, he, again, was denying. And, after a little again, the by-standers, were saying unto Peter—Truly, thou, art, from among them; for thou art, a Galilaean, also.
71 Nake akĩambĩrĩria kwĩhĩta akiugaga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndiũĩ mũndũ ũyũ mũraaria ũhoro wake.”
And, he, began to be cursing and swearing—I know not this man, of whom ye are speaking!
72 O hĩndĩ ĩyo ngũkũ ĩgĩkũga hĩndĩ ya keerĩ. Nake Petero akĩririkana ũhoro ũrĩa Jesũ aamwĩrĩte atĩrĩ, “Ngũkũ ĩtanakũga keerĩ nĩũrĩngaana maita matatũ.” Nake akĩambĩrĩria kũrĩra.
And, straightway, a second time, a cock, crowed; and Peter was reminded of the declaration, how Jesus had said to him—Before a cock, twice, crow, thrice, wilt thou deny me. And, when he thought thereon, he began to weep.
