< Mathayo 27 >

1 Na rĩrĩ, rũciinĩ tene, athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene othe na athuuri a andũ makĩiguithania atĩ matuĩre Jesũ kũũragwo.
And morning having come, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus, so as to put him to death;
2 Makĩmuoha na mĩnyororo; makĩmũruta kũu, makĩmũtwara kũrĩ Pilato, ũrĩa warĩ barũthi.
and having bound him, they did lead away, and delivered him up to Pontius Pilate, the governor.
3 Rĩrĩa Judasi, ũcio wamũkunyanĩire oonire atĩ Jesũ nĩatuĩrwo gũkua-rĩ, akĩĩrira na agĩcookeria athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na athuuri mbeeca icio cia betha mĩrongo ĩtatũ.
Then Judas — he who delivered him up — having seen that he was condemned, having repented, brought back the thirty silverlings to the chief priests, and to the elders, saying,
4 Akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩnjĩhĩtie, nĩgũkorwo nĩngunyanĩire thakame ĩtarĩ na mahĩtia.” Nao makĩmũcookeria makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũcio ũkĩrĩ ũhoro witũ? Ũcio nĩ ũhoro waku.”
'I did sin, having delivered up innocent blood;' and they said, 'What — to us? thou shalt see!'
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Judasi agĩikania mbeeca icio thĩinĩ wa hekarũ, agĩĩthiĩra. Agĩcooka agĩthiĩ akĩĩita.
and having cast down the silverlings in the sanctuary, he departed, and having gone away, he did strangle himself.
6 Athĩnjĩri-Ngai acio anene makĩoya mbeeca icio makiuga atĩrĩ, “Kũiga mbeeca ici kĩgĩĩna-inĩ nĩ kuuna watho, nĩgũkorwo nĩ mbeeca cia thakame.”
And the chief priests having taken the silverlings, said, 'It is not lawful to put them to the treasury, seeing it is the price of blood;'
7 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩiguithania mahũthĩre mbeeca icio na kũgũra gĩthaka kĩrĩa kĩa mũũmbi nyũngũ gĩtuĩke gĩa gũthikagwo ageni.
and having taken counsel, they bought with them the field of the potter, for the burial of strangers;
8 Kĩu nĩkĩo gĩtũmaga gĩthaka kĩu gĩĩtwo Gĩthaka gĩa Thakame nginya ũmũthĩ.
therefore was that field called, 'Field of blood,' unto this day.
9 Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩguo ũhoro ũrĩa waarĩtio nĩ Jeremia ũrĩa Mũnabii wahingire, rĩrĩa oigire atĩrĩ: “Nao nĩmoire icunjĩ icio mĩrongo ĩtatũ cia betha, thogora ũrĩa andũ a Isiraeli maatuĩte wa kũmũgũra,
Then was fulfilled that spoken through Jeremiah the prophet, saying, 'And I took the thirty silverlings, the price of him who hath been priced, whom they of the sons of Israel did price,
10 nao magĩcihũthĩra na kũgũra gĩthaka kĩa mũũmbi nyũngũ, o ta ũrĩa Mwathani aanjathire gwĩkwo.”
and gave them for the field of the potter, as the Lord did appoint to me.'
11 Na rĩrĩ, Jesũ akĩrũgama mbere ya barũthi, nake barũthi ũcio akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe Mũthamaki wa Ayahudi?” Jesũ agĩcookia atĩrĩ. “Ĩĩ, wee nĩwoiga.”
And Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor did question him, saying, 'Art thou the king of the Jews!' And Jesus said to him, 'Thou sayest.'
12 No rĩrĩa aathitangirwo nĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na athuuri, ndarĩ ũndũ aacookirie.
And in his being accused by the chief priests and the elders, he did not answer any thing,
13 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Pilato akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ũtaraigua ũira wa maũndũ marĩa maragũthitangĩra?”
then saith Pilate to him, 'Dost thou not hear how many things they witness against thee?'
14 Nowe Jesũ ndaigana gũcookia ũndũ o na ũmwe wa macio; nake barũthi akĩgega mũno.
And he did not answer him, not even to one word, so that the governor did wonder greatly.
15 Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ya Gĩathĩ kĩa Bathaka, barũthi ũcio nĩamenyerete kuohora mũndũ ũmwe wa arĩa oohe, o ũrĩa kĩrĩndĩ kĩngĩathuurire.
And at the feast the governor had been accustomed to release one to the multitude, a prisoner, whom they willed,
16 Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩ maarĩ na mũndũ kĩmaramari wohetwo na woĩkaine mũno, wetagwo Baraba.
and they had then a noted prisoner, called Barabbas,
17 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa kĩrĩndĩ kĩagomanire, Pilato agĩkĩũria atĩrĩ, “Nũũ mũkwenda ndĩmuohorere; nĩ Baraba, kana nĩ Jesũ ũrĩa wĩtagwo Kristũ?”
they therefore having been gathered together, Pilate said to them, 'Whom will ye I shall release to you? Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ?'
18 Nĩgũkorwo we nĩamenyaga atĩ maatwarĩte Jesũ kũrĩ we nĩ ũndũ wa ũiru.
for he had known that because of envy they had delivered him up.
19 Na hĩndĩ ĩyo Pilato aikarĩire gĩtĩ gĩa ciira, mũtumia wake akĩmũtũmĩra mũndũ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ: “Ndũkae gwĩka mũndũ ũcio ũndũ tondũ ndarĩ na mahĩtia, nĩgũkorwo ũmũthĩ nĩthĩĩnĩtio nĩ kĩroto mũno nĩ ũndũ wake.”
And as he is sitting on the tribunal, his wife sent unto him, saying, 'Nothing — to thee and to that righteous one, for many things did I suffer to-day in a dream because of him.'
20 No rĩrĩ, athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na athuuri makĩringĩrĩria kĩrĩndĩ gĩĩtie Baraba, nake Jesũ ooragwo.
And the chief priests and the elders did persuade the multitudes that they might ask for themselves Barabbas, and might destroy Jesus;
21 Barũthi ũcio akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Andũ aya eerĩ nĩ ũrĩkũ mũkwenda ndĩmuohorere?” Nao makiuga atĩrĩ, “Tũkwenda Baraba.”
and the governor answering said to them, 'Which of the two will ye [that] I shall release to you?' And they said, 'Barabbas.'
22 Pilato akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Ngũgĩĩka atĩa na Jesũ ũyũ wĩtagwo Kristũ?” Othe magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Mwambe mũtĩ-igũrũ.”
Pilate saith to them, 'What then shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?' They all say to him, 'Let be crucified!'
23 Nake Pilato akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩkĩ? Nĩ ngero ĩrĩkũ agerete?” Nao magĩkĩrĩrĩria kwanĩrĩra, makiugaga atĩrĩ, “Mwambe mũtĩ-igũrũ!”
And the governor said, 'Why, what evil did he?' and they were crying out the more, saying, 'Let be crucified.'
24 Rĩrĩa Pilato oonire atĩ matiraiguithania, na akĩona atĩ nĩ ngũĩ yambagĩrĩria-rĩ, akĩoya maaĩ, agĩĩthamba moko hau mbere ya kĩrĩndĩ, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndikoorio thakame ya mũndũ ũyũ ũtarĩ na mahĩtia. Ũcio nĩ ũhoro wanyu!”
And Pilate having seen that it profiteth nothing, but rather a tumult is made, having taken water, he did wash the hands before the multitude, saying, 'I am innocent from the blood of this righteous one; ye — ye shall see;'
25 Nao andũ acio othe magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Thakame yake ĩrotũcookerera hamwe na ciana ciitũ!”
and all the people answering said, 'His blood [is] upon us, and upon our children!'
26 Pilato akĩmohorera Baraba. No akĩhũũrithia Jesũ iboko, agĩcooka akĩmũneana akaambwo mũtĩ-igũrũ.
Then did he release to them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, he delivered [him] up that he may be crucified;
27 Ningĩ thigari cia barũthi cigĩtwara Jesũ thĩinĩ wa gĩikaro kĩa barũthi, nacio cigĩcookanĩrĩria mbũtũ yothe ya thigari, cikĩmũrigiicĩria.
then the soldiers of the governor having taken Jesus to the Praetorium, did gather to him all the band;
28 Cikĩmũruta nguo ciake, cikĩmũhumba nguo ndune,
and having unclothed him, they put around him a crimson cloak,
29 cigĩcooka cigĩtuma thũmbĩ ya mĩigua, cikĩmwĩkĩra mũtwe. Cikĩmũnengera kamũrangi guoko-inĩ gwake kwa ũrĩo, cikĩmũturĩria ndu, na cikĩmũnyũrũria, cikiuga atĩrĩ, “Wĩ mũhoro, mũthamaki wa Ayahudi!”
and having plaited him a crown out of thorns they put [it] on his head, and a reed in his right hand, and having kneeled before him, they were mocking him, saying, 'Hail, the king of the Jews.'
30 Cikĩmũtuĩra mata, cikĩoya kamũrangi kau, na cikĩmũhũũra nako mũtwe.
And having spit on him, they took the reed, and were smiting on his head;
31 Ciarĩkia kũmũnyũrũria, cikĩmũruta nguo ĩyo, na cikĩmũhumba nguo ciake mwene. Cigĩcooka cikĩmumagaria cikamwambe mũtĩ-igũrũ.
and when they had mocked him, they took off from him the cloak, and put on him his own garments, and led him away to crucify [him].
32 Na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa moimagaraga-rĩ, magĩcemania na mũndũ woimĩte Kurene, wetagwo Simoni, nacio thigari cikĩmũkuuithia mũtharaba ũcio na hinya.
And coming forth, they found a man, a Cyrenian, by name Simon: him they impressed that he might bear his cross;
33 Magĩthiĩ, magĩkinya handũ heetagwo Gologotha (ũguo nĩ kuuga Handũ hahaana ta Ihĩndĩ rĩa Mũtwe).
and having come to a place called Golgotha, that is called Place of a Skull,
34 Nacio cikĩhe Jesũ ndibei anyue, ĩtukanĩtio na kĩndũ kĩrũrũ ta maaĩ ma nyongo; no aamĩcama akĩrega kũmĩnyua.
they gave him to drink vinegar mixed with gall, and having tasted, he would not drink.
35 Ciarĩkia kũmwamba mũtĩ-igũrũ, cikĩgayana nguo ciake na njĩra ya gũcicuukĩra mĩtĩ.
And having crucified him, they divided his garments, casting a lot, that it might be fulfilled that was spoken by the prophet, 'They divided my garments to themselves, and over my vesture they cast a lot;'
36 Nacio cigĩikara thĩ hau, cikĩmũrangĩra.
and sitting down, they were watching him there,
37 Na hau igũrũ rĩa mũtwe wake, nĩhandĩkĩtwo maũndũ marĩa aathitangĩirwo, atĩrĩ: ŨYŨ NĨWE JESŨ, MŨTHAMAKI WA AYAHUDI.
and they put up over his head, his accusation written, 'This is Jesus, the king of the Jews.'
38 Na rĩrĩ, atunyani eerĩ nĩmambirwo mĩtĩ-igũrũ hamwe nake, ũmwe mwena wake wa ũrĩo, na ũcio ũngĩ mwena wake wa ũmotho.
Then crucified with him are two robbers, one on the right hand, and one on the left,
39 Nao andũ arĩa maahĩtũkagĩra hau makamũrumaga, makĩinagia mĩtwe yao,
and those passing by were speaking evil of him, wagging their heads,
40 makiugaga atĩrĩ, “Wee ũngĩratharirie hekarũ na ũcooke ũmĩake na mĩthenya ĩtatũ-rĩ, kĩĩhonokie! Harũrũka uume mũtharaba-inĩ, aakorwo wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai!”
and saying, 'Thou that art throwing down the sanctuary, and in three days building [it], save thyself; if Son thou art of God, come down from the cross.'
41 O ũndũ ũmwe athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene, na arutani a watho, na athuuri o nao makĩmũnyũrũria.
And in like manner also the chief priests mocking, with the scribes and elders, said,
42 Makiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩarahonokagia andũ arĩa angĩ, no ndangĩhota kwĩhonokia we mwene! Nĩwe Mũthamaki wa Isiraeli! Nĩakiume rĩu mũtharaba-inĩ, na ithuĩ nĩtũkũmwĩtĩkia.
'Others he saved; himself he is not able to save! If he be King of Israel, let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe him;
43 Nĩehokete Ngai, nĩakĩmũhonokie rĩu aakorwo nĩamwendete, nĩgũkorwo oigire atĩrĩ, ‘Niĩ ndĩ Mũrũ wa Ngai.’”
he hath trusted on God, let Him now deliver him, if He wish him, because he said — Son of God I am;'
44 O na atunyani arĩa maambanĩirio hamwe nake o nao makĩmũruma.
with the same also the robbers, who were crucified with him, were reproaching him.
45 Na rĩrĩ, kuuma thaa thita cia mũthenya nginya thaa kenda bũrũri wothe ũkĩgĩa nduma.
And from the sixth hour darkness came over all the land unto the ninth hour,
46 Na ta thaa kenda Jesũ akĩgũthũka na mũgambo mũnene, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Eli, Eli, lama sabakithani?” (Ũguo nĩ kuuga, “Ngai wakwa, Ngai wakwa, ũndiganĩirie nĩkĩ?”)
and about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a great voice, saying, 'Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?' that is, 'My God, my God, why didst Thou forsake me?'
47 Nao andũ amwe a arĩa maarũngiĩ hau rĩrĩa maiguire ũguo, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Areeta Elija.”
And certain of those standing there having heard, said — 'Elijah he doth call;'
48 Na o rĩmwe, ũmwe wao agĩtengʼera akĩoya thibũnji. Akĩmĩtobokia thiki-inĩ, akĩmĩthecerera kamũrangi-inĩ, akĩhe Jesũ anyue.
and immediately, one of them having run, and having taken a spunge, having filled [it] with vinegar, and having put [it] on a reed, was giving him to drink,
49 Arĩa angĩ nao makiuga atĩrĩ, “Tiganai nake. Nĩtũkuona kana Elija nĩegũũka kũmũhonokia.”
but the rest said, 'Let alone, let us see if Elijah doth come — about to save him.'
50 Nake Jesũ akĩgũthũka rĩngĩ na mũgambo mũnene, agĩtuĩkana.
And Jesus having again cried with a great voice, yielded the spirit;
51 Na rĩrĩ, ihinda o rĩu gĩtambaya kĩa hekarũ gĩgĩatũkana icunjĩ igĩrĩ kuuma igũrũ nginya thĩ. Nayo thĩ ĩgĩthingitha, nacio ndwaro cia mahiga igĩatũkana.
and lo, the vail of the sanctuary was rent in two from top unto bottom, and the earth did quake, and the rocks were rent,
52 Mbĩrĩra nacio ikĩhingũka, nao andũ aingĩ arĩa atheru arĩa maarĩkĩtie gũkua makĩriũka,
and the tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who have fallen asleep, arose,
53 makiuma thĩinĩ wa mbĩrĩra. Na thuutha wa kũriũka kwa Jesũ, magĩthiĩ itũũra rĩu inene itheru, na makiumĩrĩra andũ aingĩ.
and having come forth out of the tombs after his rising, they went into the holy city, and appeared to many.
54 Rĩrĩa mũnene-wa-thigari-igana na arĩa maarĩ nake makĩrangĩra Jesũ moonire gĩthingithia na maũndũ mothe marĩa meekĩkire-rĩ, makĩnyiitwo nĩ guoya, makĩanĩrĩra, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ mũndũ ũyũ oima Mũrũ wa Ngai!”
And the centurion, and those with him watching Jesus, having seen the earthquake, and the things that were done, were exceedingly afraid, saying, 'Truly this was God's Son.'
55 Na nĩ haarĩ andũ-a-nja aingĩ meeroragĩra marĩ o haraaya. Maarũmĩrĩire Jesũ kuuma Galili nĩguo mamũtungatagĩre.
And there were there many women beholding from afar, who did follow Jesus from Galilee, ministering to him,
56 Thĩinĩ wao haarĩ Mariamu Mũmagidali, na Mariamu ũrĩa nyina wa Jakubu na Jose, na nyina wa ariũ a Zebedi.
among whom was Mary the Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and of Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
57 Na hwaĩ-inĩ wakinya-rĩ, mũndũ warĩ gĩtonga wa kuuma Arimathea, wetagwo Jusufu, ũrĩa watuĩkĩte mũrutwo wa Jesũ agĩũka.
And evening having come, there came a rich man, from Arimathea, named Joseph, who also himself was discipled to Jesus,
58 Nake agĩthiĩ kũrĩ Pilato, na akĩhooya aheo mwĩrĩ wa Jesũ, nake Pilato agĩathana anengerwo mwĩrĩ ũcio.
he having gone near to Pilate, asked for himself the body of Jesus; then Pilate commanded the body to be given back.
59 Jusufu akĩoya mwĩrĩ ũcio, akĩwoha na taama mũtheru wa gatani,
And having taken the body, Joseph wrapped it in clean linen,
60 akĩũiga thĩinĩ wa mbĩrĩra yake njerũ ĩrĩa eenjithĩtie rwaro-inĩ rwa ihiga. Akĩgaragaria ihiga inene mũromo-inĩ wa mbĩrĩra ĩyo, na agĩĩthiĩra.
and laid it in his new tomb, that he hewed in the rock, and having rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb, he went away;
61 Mariamu Mũmagidali na Mariamu ũcio ũngĩ maikarĩte hau mangʼetheire mbĩrĩra.
and there were there Mary the Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over-against the sepulchre.
62 Na mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ ũrĩa ũrũmagĩrĩra Mũthenya wa Ihaarĩria, athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na Afarisai magĩthiĩ kwa Pilato.
And on the morrow that is after the preparation, were gathered together the chief priests, and the Pharisees, unto Pilate,
63 Makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwathi witũ, nĩtũkũririkana atĩ rĩrĩa mũheenania ũcio aarĩ muoyo. nĩoigire atĩrĩ, ‘Thuutha wa matukũ matatũ nĩngariũka.’
saying, 'Sir, we have remembered that that deceiver said while yet living, After three days I do rise;
64 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ruta watho nĩguo mbĩrĩra ĩyo ĩrangĩrwo nginya mũthenya wa gatatũ. Kwaga ũguo, arutwo ake maahota gũthiĩ maiye mwĩrĩ ũcio macooke meere andũ atĩ nĩariũkĩtio kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ. Maheeni macio maahota gũtuĩka mooru gũkĩra marĩa ma mbere.”
command, then, the sepulchre to be made secure till the third day, lest his disciples, having come by night, may steal him away, and may say to the people, He rose from the dead, and the last deceit shall be worse than the first.'
65 Nake Pilato akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Oyai arangĩri, mũthiĩ mũrangĩre mbĩrĩra ĩyo wega o ta ũrĩa mũngĩhota.”
And Pilate said to them, 'Ye have a watch, go away, make secure — as ye have known;'
66 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩthiĩ, makĩhinga ihiga rĩa mbĩrĩra ĩyo biũ, na makĩrĩĩkĩra rũũri rwa mũhũra, na makĩiga arangĩri ho.
and they, having gone, did make the sepulchre secure, having sealed the stone, together with the watch.
