Κατα Ματθαιον 27
1 Πρωΐας δὲ γενομένης, συμβούλιον ἔλαβον πάντες οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι τοῦ λαοῦ κατὰ τοῦ ˚Ἰησοῦ, ὥστε θανατῶσαι αὐτόν·
Kwathi sekusile, bonke abapristi abakhulu labadala babantu bacebisana bemelene loJesu ukuthi bambulale;
2 καὶ δήσαντες αὐτὸν ἀπήγαγον καὶ παρέδωκαν Πιλάτῳ τῷ ἡγεμόνι.
sebembophile bamqhuba bamnikela kuPontiyusi Pilatu umbusi.
3 Τότε ἰδὼν Ἰούδας ὁ παραδιδοὺς αὐτὸν, ὅτι κατεκρίθη, μεταμεληθεὶς ἔστρεψεν τὰ τριάκοντα ἀργύρια τοῖς ἀρχιερεῦσιν καὶ πρεσβυτέροις
Kwathi uJudasi owamnikelayo esebonile ukuthi ulahliwe, wazisola wabuyisela inhlamvu zesiliva ezingamatshumi amathathu kubapristi abakhulu labadala,
4 λέγων, “Ἥμαρτον παραδοὺς αἷμα ἀθῷον.” Οἱ δὲ εἶπον, “Τί πρὸς ἡμᾶς; Σὺ ὄψῃ.”
wathi: Ngonile nginikele igazi elingelacala. Kodwa bona bathi: Kulani lathi? Zibonele wena.
5 Καὶ ῥίψας τὰ ἀργύρια εἰς τὸν ναὸν, ἀνεχώρησεν καὶ ἀπελθὼν ἀπήγξατο.
Wasephosela inhlamvu zesiliva ethempelini, wasuka; wayaziphanyeka.
6 Οἱ δὲ ἀρχιερεῖς λαβόντες τὰ ἀργύρια εἶπον, “Οὐκ ἔξεστιν βαλεῖν αὐτὰ εἰς τὸν κορβανᾶν, ἐπεὶ τιμὴ αἵματός ἐστιν.”
Abapristi abakhulu basebethatha inhlamvu zesiliva bathi: Kakuvunyelwa ukuzifaka emnikelweni, ngoba ziyintengo yegazi.
7 Συμβούλιον δὲ λαβόντες, ἠγόρασαν ἐξ αὐτῶν τὸν Ἀγρὸν τοῦ Κεραμέως, εἰς ταφὴν τοῖς ξένοις.
Basebecebisana bathenga ngazo isiqinti sombumbi, sibe ngesokungcwaba abezizwe.
8 Διὸ ἐκλήθη ὁ ἀγρὸς ἐκεῖνος, Ἀγρὸς Αἵματος ἕως τῆς σήμερον.
Ngakho lesosiqinti sathiwa yisiqinti segazi, kuze kube lamuhla.
9 Τότε ἐπληρώθη τὸ ῥηθὲν διὰ Ἰερεμίου τοῦ προφήτου λέγοντος, “Καὶ ἔλαβον τὰ τριάκοντα ἀργύρια, τὴν τιμὴν τοῦ τετιμημένου, ὃν ἐτιμήσαντο” ἀπὸ υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ,
Kwasekugcwaliseka okwakhulunywa ngumprofethi uJeremiya, esithi: Basebethatha inhlamvu zesiliva ezingamatshumi amathathu, intengo yalowo owalinganiswayo, abantwana bakoIsrayeli abamlinganisayo;
10 “καὶ ἔδωκαν αὐτὰ εἰς τὸν Ἀγρὸν τοῦ Κεραμέως, καθὰ συνέταξέν μοι ˚Κύριος”.
basebebapha zona ngensimu yombumbi, njengoba iNkosi ingilayile.
11 Ὁ δὲ ˚Ἰησοῦς ἐστάθη ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ ἡγεμόνος· καὶ ἐπηρώτησεν αὐτὸν ὁ ἡγεμὼν λέγων, “Σὺ εἶ ὁ βασιλεὺς τῶν Ἰουδαίων;” Ὁ δὲ ˚Ἰησοῦς ἔφη αὐτῷ, “Σὺ λέγεις.”
UJesu wasesima phambi kombusi; umbusi wasembuza, wathi: Wena uyiNkosi yamaJuda yini? UJesu wasesithi: Utshilo wena.
12 Καὶ ἐν τῷ κατηγορεῖσθαι αὐτὸν ὑπὸ τῶν ἀρχιερέων καὶ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων, οὐδὲν ἀπεκρίνατο.
Kwathi nxa esemangalelwe ngabapristi abakhulu labadala, kaphendulanga lutho.
13 Τότε λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Πιλᾶτος, “Οὐκ ἀκούεις πόσα σου καταμαρτυροῦσιν;”
UPilatu wasesithi kuye: Kawuzwa yini izinto ezingaka abazifakaza ngawe?
14 Καὶ οὐκ ἀπεκρίθη αὐτῷ πρὸς οὐδὲ ἓν ῥῆμα, ὥστε θαυμάζειν τὸν ἡγεμόνα λίαν.
Kodwa kamphendulanga lakwelilodwa ilizwi, waze wamangala kakhulu umbusi.
15 Κατὰ δὲ ἑορτὴν, εἰώθει ὁ ἡγεμὼν ἀπολύειν ἕνα τῷ ὄχλῳ δέσμιον, ὃν ἤθελον.
Futhi ngomkhosi umbusi wayejwayele ukukhululela ixuku isibotshwa esisodwa, elisifunayo.
16 Εἶχον δὲ τότε δέσμιον ἐπίσημον, λεγόμενον Βαραββᾶν.
Njalo ngalesosikhathi babelesibotshwa esidumileyo, esithiwa nguBarabasi.
17 Συνηγμένων οὖν αὐτῶν, εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Πιλᾶτος, “Τίνα θέλετε ἀπολύσω ὑμῖν, Βαραββᾶν ἢ ˚Ἰησοῦν, τὸν λεγόμενον ˚Χριστόν;”
Ngakho sebebuthene, uPilatu wathi kubo: Lithanda ukuthi ngilikhululele bani, uBarabasi, kumbe uJesu othiwa nguKristu?
18 ᾔδει γὰρ ὅτι διὰ φθόνον παρέδωκαν αὐτόν.
Ngoba wayekwazi ukuthi bamnikele ngomona.
19 Καθημένου δὲ αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τοῦ βήματος, ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς αὐτὸν ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ λέγουσα, “Μηδὲν σοὶ καὶ τῷ δικαίῳ ἐκείνῳ, πολλὰ γὰρ ἔπαθον σήμερον κατʼ ὄναρ διʼ αὐτόν.”
Kwathi esehlezi esihlalweni sokwahlulela, umkakhe wathumela kuye, wathi: Ungabi landaba lalowo olungileyo; ngoba lamuhla ngihluphekile kakhulu ngaye ephutsheni.
20 Οἱ δὲ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι ἔπεισαν τοὺς ὄχλους, ἵνα αἰτήσωνται τὸν Βαραββᾶν, τὸν δὲ ˚Ἰησοῦν ἀπολέσωσιν.
Kodwa abapristi abakhulu labadala bancengana lamaxuku ukuthi acele uBarabasi, ambhubhise uJesu.
21 Ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ ἡγεμὼν εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, “Τίνα θέλετε ἀπὸ τῶν δύο, ἀπολύσω ὑμῖν;” Οἱ δὲ εἶπον, τὸν “Βαραββᾶν.”
Wasephendula umbusi wathi kubo: Lithanda ukuthi ngilikhululele bani kulaba ababili? Basebesithi: UBarabasi.
22 Λέγει αὐτοῖς ὁ Πιλᾶτος, “Τί οὖν ποιήσω ˚Ἰησοῦν, τὸν λεγόμενον ˚Χριστόν;” Λέγουσιν πάντες, “Σταυρωθήτω.”
UPilatu wathi kubo: Pho ngimenzeni uJesu othiwa nguKristu? Bonke bathi kuye: Kabethelwe.
23 Ὁ δὲ ἔφη, “Τί γὰρ κακὸν ἐποίησεν;” Οἱ δὲ περισσῶς ἔκραζον λέγοντες, “Σταυρωθήτω.”
Umbusi wasesithi: Ngoba wenze bubi bani? Kodwa bamemeza kakhulu, bathi: Kabethelwe!
24 Ἰδὼν δὲ ὁ Πιλᾶτος ὅτι οὐδὲν ὠφελεῖ, ἀλλὰ μᾶλλον θόρυβος γίνεται, λαβὼν ὕδωρ, ἀπενίψατο τὰς χεῖρας ἀπέναντι τοῦ ὄχλου λέγων, “Ἀθῷός εἰμι ἀπὸ τοῦ αἵματος τοῦ δικαίου τούτου. Ὑμεῖς ὄψεσθε.”
Kwathi uPilatu esebonile ukuthi kakusizi lutho, kodwa ukuthi kwasekuqala kulalokhu ukuba lesiphithiphithi, wathatha amanzi, wageza izandla phambi kwexuku, wathi: Angilacala ngegazi lalumuntu olungileyo; ziboneleni lina.
25 Καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς πᾶς ὁ λαὸς εἶπεν, “Τὸ αἷμα αὐτοῦ ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ τέκνα ἡμῶν.”
Bonke abantu basebephendula bathi: Igazi lakhe kalibe phezu kwethu laphezu kwabantwana bethu.
26 Τότε ἀπέλυσεν αὐτοῖς τὸν Βαραββᾶν, τὸν δὲ ˚Ἰησοῦν φραγελλώσας, παρέδωκεν, ἵνα σταυρωθῇ.
Wasebakhululela uBarabasi; kodwa esemtshaye ngesiswepu uJesu wamnikela ukuthi abethelwe.
27 Τότε οἱ στρατιῶται τοῦ ἡγεμόνος, παραλαβόντες τὸν ˚Ἰησοῦν εἰς τὸ πραιτώριον, συνήγαγον ἐπʼ αὐτὸν ὅλην τὴν σπεῖραν.
Abebutho bombusi basebemngenisa uJesu endlini yombusi, baqoqela kuye ibutho lonke;
28 Καὶ ἐκδύσαντες αὐτὸν, χλαμύδα κοκκίνην περιέθηκαν αὐτῷ,
bamhlubula, bamgqokisa isembatho esibomvu,
29 καὶ πλέξαντες στέφανον ἐξ ἀκανθῶν, ἐπέθηκαν ἐπὶ τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ, καὶ κάλαμον ἐν τῇ δεξιᾷ αὐτοῦ, καὶ γονυπετήσαντες ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ, ἐνέπαιξαν αὐτῷ λέγοντες, “Χαῖρε, ὁ Βασιλεῦς τῶν Ἰουδαίων!”
sebelukile umqhele wameva, bamethesa wona ekhanda, bamphathisa lomhlanga esandleni sakhe sokunene; baguqa phambi kwakhe bamklolodela, bathi: Bayethe, Nkosi yamaJuda!
30 Καὶ ἐμπτύσαντες εἰς αὐτὸν, ἔλαβον τὸν κάλαμον, καὶ ἔτυπτον εἰς τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ.
Bamkhafulela amathe, bathatha umhlanga, batshaya ikhanda lakhe.
31 Καὶ ὅτε ἐνέπαιξαν αὐτῷ, ἐξέδυσαν αὐτὸν τὴν χλαμύδα καὶ ἐνέδυσαν αὐτὸν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀπήγαγον αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ σταυρῶσαι.
Sebemklolodele, bamhlubula isembatho, bamgqokisa izigqoko zakhe, bamqhuba ukuze bambethele.
32 Ἐξερχόμενοι δὲ, εὗρον ἄνθρωπον Κυρηναῖον, ὀνόματι Σίμωνα. Τοῦτον ἠγγάρευσαν ἵνα ἄρῃ τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ.
Kwathi sebephuma, bafica umuntu weKurene, uSimoni ngebizo; bambamba ngamandla lowo ukuthi athwale isiphambano sakhe.
33 Καὶ ἐλθόντες εἰς τόπον λεγόμενον Γολγοθᾶ, ὅ ἐστιν “Κρανίου Τόπος” λεγόμενος.
Sebefikile endaweni ethiwa yiGolgotha, okuyikuthi iNdawo yokhakhayi,
34 Ἔδωκαν αὐτῷ πιεῖν οἶνον μετὰ χολῆς μεμιγμένον· καὶ γευσάμενος, οὐκ ἠθέλησεν πιεῖν.
bamnika iviniga elixutshaniswe lenyongo ukuze alinathe; kodwa eselizwile kavumanga ukunatha.
35 Σταυρώσαντες δὲ αὐτὸν, διεμερίσαντο τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ βάλλοντες κλῆρον,
Futhi sebembethele, baba izembatho zakhe, benza inkatho yokuphosa; ukuze kugcwaliseke okwakhulunywa ngumprofethi ukuthi: Babelana izembatho zami, benza inkatho yokuphosa ngesigqoko sami.
36 καὶ καθήμενοι ἐτήρουν αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ.
Njalo sebehlala phansi bamlinda khona.
37 Καὶ ἐπέθηκαν ἐπάνω τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ τὴν αἰτίαν αὐτοῦ γεγραμμένην, “Οὗτός ἐστιν ˚Ἰησοῦς, ὁ Βασιλεὺς τῶν Ἰουδαίων.”
Babeka ngaphezu kwekhanda lakhe incwadi yecala lakhe ilotshiwe ukuthi: LO NGUJESU INKOSI YAMAJUDA.
38 Τότε σταυροῦνται σὺν αὐτῷ δύο λῃσταί, εἷς ἐκ δεξιῶν, καὶ εἷς ἐξ εὐωνύμων.
Kwasekubethelwa abaphangi ababili kanye laye, omunye ngakwesokunene lomunye ngakwesokhohlo.
39 Οἱ δὲ παραπορευόμενοι ἐβλασφήμουν αὐτὸν, κινοῦντες τὰς κεφαλὰς αὐτῶν
Labadlulayo bamhlambaza, benikina amakhanda abo,
40 καὶ λέγοντες, “Ὁ καταλύων τὸν ναὸν καὶ ἐν τρισὶν ἡμέραις οἰκοδομῶν, σῶσον σεαυτόν, εἰ υἱὸς εἶ τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ, κατάβηθι ἀπὸ τοῦ σταυροῦ!”
besithi: Wena odiliza ithempeli ulakhe ngensuku ezintathu, zisindise; uba uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu, yehla esiphambanweni.
41 Ὁμοίως οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς ἐμπαίζοντες μετὰ τῶν γραμματέων καὶ πρεσβυτέρων ἔλεγον,
Langokunjalo labapristi abakhulu labo bekloloda kanye lababhali labadala bathi:
42 “Ἄλλους ἔσωσεν, ἑαυτὸν οὐ δύναται σῶσαι. Βασιλεὺς Ἰσραήλ ἐστιν, καταβάτω νῦν ἀπὸ τοῦ σταυροῦ, καὶ πιστεύσομεν ἐπʼ αὐτόν.
Wasindisa abanye, yena angezisindise. Uba eyiNkosi yakoIsrayeli, kehle khathesi esiphambanweni, futhi sizamkholwa.
43 ‘Πέποιθεν ἐπὶ τὸν ˚Θεόν, ῥυσάσθω νῦν εἰ θέλει αὐτόν.’ Εἶπεν γὰρ, ὅτι ‘˚Θεοῦ εἰμι Υἱός.’”
Wathemba kuNkulunkulu; kamkhulule khathesi, uba emthanda. Ngoba wathi: NgiyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu.
44 Τὸ δʼ αὐτὸ καὶ οἱ λῃσταὶ, οἱ συσταυρωθέντες σὺν αὐτῷ, ὠνείδιζον αὐτόν.
Labaphangi ababebethelwe kanye laye bamyangisa ngokufananayo.
45 Ἀπὸ δὲ ἕκτης ὥρας, σκότος ἐγένετο ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἕως ὥρας ἐνάτης.
Njalo kusukela ngehola lesithupha kwaba lobumnyama emhlabeni wonke kwaze kwaba lihola lesificamunwemunye;
46 Περὶ δὲ τὴν ἐνάτην ὥραν, ἐβόησεν ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς φωνῇ μεγάλῃ λέγων, “Ἐλωί, Ἐλωί, λεμὰ σαβαχθάνι;” Τοῦτʼ ἔστιν, “˚Θεέ μου, ˚Θεέ μου, ἵνα τί με ἐγκατέλιπες;”
sekungaba lihola lesificamunwemunye uJesu wamemeza ngelizwi elikhulu, wathi: "Eli, Eli, lama sabaktani?" Okuyikuthi: Nkulunkulu wami, Nkulunkulu wami, ungitshiyeleni?
47 Τινὲς δὲ τῶν ἐκεῖ ἑστηκότων ἀκούσαντες ἔλεγον, ὅτι “Ἠλίαν φωνεῖ οὗτος.”
Njalo abanye kwababemi khona besizwa bathi: Lo ubiza uElija.
48 Καὶ εὐθέως δραμὼν εἷς ἐξ αὐτῶν καὶ λαβὼν σπόγγον, πλήσας τε ὄξους καὶ περιθεὶς καλάμῳ, ἐπότιζεν αὐτόν.
Njalo omunye wabo wahle wagijima, wathatha uzipho, walugcwalisa ngeviniga, waluhloma emhlangeni, wamnika ukuthi anathe.
49 Οἱ δὲ λοιποὶ ἔλεγον, “Ἄφες, ἴδωμεν εἰ ἔρχεται Ἠλίας σώσων αὐτόν.”
Kodwa abanye bathi: Yekelani sibone ukuthi uElija uzakuza amsindise.
50 Ὁ δὲ ˚Ἰησοῦς πάλιν κράξας φωνῇ μεγάλῃ, ἀφῆκεν τὸ πνεῦμα.
UJesu wasebuya ememeza ngelizwi elikhulu wanikela umoya.
51 Καὶ ἰδοὺ, τὸ καταπέτασμα τοῦ ναοῦ ἐσχίσθη ἀπʼ ἄνωθεν ἕως κάτω, εἰς δύο καὶ ἡ γῆ ἐσείσθη, καὶ αἱ πέτραι ἐσχίσθησαν,
Futhi khangela, iveyili lethempeli ladatshulwa incezu ezimbili laqala phezulu lisiya phansi; lomhlaba wazamazama; lamadwala aqhekezeka;
52 καὶ τὰ μνημεῖα ἀνεῴχθησαν, καὶ πολλὰ σώματα τῶν κεκοιμημένων ἁγίων ἠγέρθη·
lamangcwaba avuleka; lezidumbu ezinengi zabangcwele abasebelele zavuswa;
53 καὶ ἐξελθόντες ἐκ τῶν μνημείων μετὰ τὴν ἔγερσιν αὐτοῦ, εἰσῆλθον εἰς τὴν ἁγίαν πόλιν καὶ ἐνεφανίσθησαν πολλοῖς.
sebephumile emangcwabeni emva kokuvuka kwakhe bangena emzini ongcwele, babonakala kwabanengi.
54 Ὁ δὲ ἑκατόνταρχος καὶ οἱ μετʼ αὐτοῦ τηροῦντες τὸν ˚Ἰησοῦν, ἰδόντες τὸν σεισμὸν καὶ τὰ γενόμενα, ἐφοβήθησαν σφόδρα λέγοντες, “Ἀληθῶς Υἱὸς ˚Θεοῦ ἦν οὗτος.”
Kwathi induna yekhulu lalabo ababelayo belinde uJesu, sebebonile ukuzamazama komhlaba lezinto ezenzekileyo, besaba kakhulu, bathi: Ngeqiniso lo ubeyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu.
55 Ἦσαν δὲ ἐκεῖ γυναῖκες πολλαὶ ἀπὸ μακρόθεν θεωροῦσαι, αἵτινες ἠκολούθησαν τῷ ˚Ἰησοῦ ἀπὸ τῆς Γαλιλαίας διακονοῦσαι αὐτῷ,
Kwakukhona lapho abesifazana abanengi bebukele bekhatshana, ababemlandele uJesu bevela eGalili, bemncedisa;
56 ἐν αἷς ἦν Μαρία ἡ Μαγδαληνὴ, καὶ Μαρία ἡ τοῦ Ἰακώβου καὶ Ἰωσὴ μήτηρ, καὶ ἡ μήτηρ τῶν υἱῶν Ζεβεδαίου.
okwakukhona phakathi kwabo oMariya Magadalena, loMariya unina kaJakobe loJose, lonina wamadodana kaZebediya.
57 Ὀψίας δὲ γενομένης, ἦλθεν ἄνθρωπος πλούσιος ἀπὸ Ἁριμαθαίας, τοὔνομα Ἰωσήφ, ὃς καὶ αὐτὸς ἐμαθήτευσεν τῷ ˚Ἰησοῦ.
Kwathi sekuhlwile, kwafika umuntu onothileyo evela eArimathiya, ibizo lakhe linguJosefa, owayengumfundi kaJesu laye;
58 Οὗτος προσελθὼν τῷ Πιλάτῳ, ᾐτήσατο τὸ σῶμα τοῦ ˚Ἰησοῦ. Τότε ὁ Πιλᾶτος ἐκέλευσεν ἀποδοθῆναι.
yena waya kuPilatu, wacela isidumbu sikaJesu. UPilatu waselaya ukuthi isidumbu asinikwe.
59 καὶ λαβὼν τὸ σῶμα, ὁ Ἰωσὴφ ἐνετύλιξεν αὐτὸ σινδόνι καθαρᾷ,
UJosefa wasethatha isidumbu wasigoqela ngelembu elicolekileyo elihlambulukileyo,
60 καὶ ἔθηκεν αὐτὸ ἐν τῷ καινῷ αὐτοῦ μνημείῳ, ὃ ἐλατόμησεν ἐν τῇ πέτρᾳ, καὶ προσκυλίσας λίθον μέγαν τῇ θύρᾳ τοῦ μνημείου, ἀπῆλθεν.
wasibeka engcwabeni lakhe elitsha, elaligujiwe edwaleni; wasegiqela ilitshe elikhulu emnyango wengcwaba, wahamba.
61 Ἦν δὲ ἐκεῖ Μαριὰμ ἡ Μαγδαληνὴ καὶ ἡ ἄλλη Μαρία, καθήμεναι ἀπέναντι τοῦ τάφου.
Futhi kwakukhona lapho uMariya Magadalena, lomunye uMariya, behlezi maqondana lengcwaba.
62 Τῇ δὲ ἐπαύριον, ἥτις ἐστὶν μετὰ τὴν παρασκευήν, συνήχθησαν οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ Φαρισαῖοι πρὸς Πιλᾶτον
Langosuku olulandelayo, olulandela olwamalungiselelo, abapristi abakhulu labaFarisi babuthana kuPilatu,
63 λέγοντες, “Κύριε, ἐμνήσθημεν ὅτι ἐκεῖνος ὁ πλάνος εἶπεν ἔτι ζῶν, ‘Μετὰ τρεῖς ἡμέρας ἐγείρομαι.’
besithi: Nkosi, siyakhumbula ukuthi lowomkhohlisi esaphila wathi: Emva kwensuku ezintathu ngizavuka.
64 Κέλευσον οὖν ἀσφαλισθῆναι τὸν τάφον ἕως τῆς τρίτης ἡμέρας, μήποτε ἐλθόντες οἱ μαθηταὶ κλέψωσιν αὐτὸν καὶ εἴπωσιν τῷ λαῷ, ‘Ἠγέρθη ἀπὸ τῶν νεκρῶν’, καὶ ἔσται ἡ ἐσχάτη πλάνη χείρων τῆς πρώτης.”
Ngakho laya ukuthi ingcwaba liqiniswe kuze kube lusuku lwesithathu; hlezi abafundi bakhe bafike ebusuku bamebe, besebesithi ebantwini: Uvukile kwabafileyo; kuthi inkohliso yokucina ibembi kuleyokuqala.
65 Ἔφη δὲ αὐτοῖς ὁ Πιλᾶτος, “Ἔχετε κουστωδίαν, ὑπάγετε ἀσφαλίσασθε ὡς οἴδατε.”
UPilatu wasesithi kubo: Lilabalindi; hambani, liliqinise njengokubona kwenu.
66 Οἱ δὲ πορευθέντες ἠσφαλίσαντο τὸν τάφον, σφραγίσαντες τὸν λίθον μετὰ τῆς κουστωδίας.
Bahamba-ke baliqinisa ingcwaba, beliphawula ilitshe, belabalindi.
