Ruku 23
1 Ana maka vahe'mo'za erihantage'za Paerotinte, Jisasina avre'za vu'za,
Then the whole assembly rose and brought Him to Pilate, and began to accuse Him.
2 amanage hu'za erigafa hu'za naneke hunte'za, tagra konkeno ama ne'mo'a havi kante Jiu vahetia zmareno nevuno, Sisana takesi zagoa omiho nehuno, Agra'agura huno Nagra Kraisina kini mani'noe hu'ne.
"We have found this man," they said, "an agitator among our nation, forbidding the payment of tribute to Caesar, and claiming to be himself an anointed king."
3 Ana hazageno, Paeroti'a Jisasina anage huno antahigene, Kagra Jiu vahe'mofo kinio? Jisasi'a ana kenona'a anage huno hu'ne, Ha e'i kagraka'a nehane.
Then Pilate asked Him, "You, then, are the King of the Jews?" "It is as you say," He replied.
4 Anante Paeroti'a ugagota pristi vahe'ene, ana vahe kevugura anage huno zmasamine, nagra ama ne'mofompina mago hazenke zama'a kena eri fore osue.
Pilate said to the High Priests and to the crowd, "I can find no crime in this man."
5 Hianagi zamagra hu hankveti'za, agra rama'a vahe'mokizmi zamarimpa zamazeri otino, maka Judia kaziga rempi huzami'ne. Anazamo'a Galiliti agafa huno amarera ehanati'ne.
But they violently insisted. "He stirs up the people," they said, "throughout all Judaea with His teaching--even from Galilee (where He first started) to this city."
6 Paeroti'a ana naneke nentahino, Jisasi'a Galili ne' mani'neo huno hu'ne.
On hearing this, Pilate inquired, "Is this man a Galilaean?"
7 Hagi Paerotima antahiama, Jisasi'a Heroti kvagri'nea mopafinti e'ne nehuno'a, Herotinte hunte'ne. Heroti'a ana knafina Jerusalemi emaninegeno huntege'za avare'za vu'naze.
And learning that He belonged to Herod's jurisdiction he sent Him to Herod, for he too was in Jerusalem at that time.
8 Herotinte avare'za vazageno, Heroti'a Jisasima negeno'a tusi muse hu'ne. Na'ankure Jisasina agenke'a hakare zupa antahitere nehuno, magokna Agra kaguvaza eri fore hanigena kesue huno antahinegu hu'ne.
To Herod the sight of Jesus was a great gratification, for, for a long time, he had been wanting to see Him, because he had heard so much about Him. He hoped also to see some miracle performed by Him.
9 Heroti'a rama'a antahige naneke hianagi, Jisasi'a kenona'a osu mani'ne.
So he put a number of questions to Him, but Jesus gave him no reply.
10 Hagi ugagota pristi vahe'mo'zane, kasegere ugota hu'naza vahe'mo'za, anante oti'za mani'ne'za, hu hankveti'za Jisasina kegaga hunte'naze.
Meanwhile the High Priests and the Scribes were standing there and vehemently accusing Him.
11 Hanki Heroti'ene sondia vahe'ane, Jisasina revatga vatago nehu'za, azanava anteza azeri haviza hute'za, knare avonke kukena eri antaninente'za, huzmantege'za Paerotinte ete avre'za vu'naze.
Then, laughing to scorn the claims of Jesus, Herod (and his soldiers with him) made sport of Him, dressed Him in a gorgeous costume, and sent Him back to Pilate.
12 Na'ankure zanagra kora ha' vahe tro hune manina'ankino, ana knazupage, Paeroti'ene Herotikea erimago zanarimpa hu'na'e.
And on that very day Herod and Pilate became friends again, for they had been for some time at enmity.
13 Hagi Paeroti'a ugota pristi vahezagane, kva vahezagane, vahetamine kehutru huno,
Then calling together the High Priests and the Rulers and the people, Pilate said,
14 anage huno zamasami'ne, Ama ne'ma avretma nagritema aza nekura hutma, vahetamina avreno havi kante nevie hutma hazanagi keho, nagrama tamagri tamavuga Agri'ma rezaganena koana, tamagrama hunentaza kemofona agafa'a kena erifore osue.
"You have brought this man to me on a charge of corrupting the loyalty of the people. But, you see, I have examined him in your presence and have discovered in the man no ground for the accusations which you bring against him.
15 Heroti'enena magozahu antahintahi hu'negu, ama nera huntegeno tagritega e'ne. Antahiho, ama nera magore huno ahefriga hazenke osu'ne.
No, nor does Herod; for he has sent him back to us; and, you see, there is nothing he has done that deserves death.
16 E'ina hu'negu, kanonkeve amitena atresugeno vugahie huno Paeroti'a hu'ne.
I will therefore give him a light punishment and release him."
17 [Amanahukna nehazane, kafune kafunena Anumzamo'ma Israeli vahema ozamahe zamagtere'negu antahimi ne'za neknarera, Paeroti'a kina nompinti mago vahe kazufe zamitere nehiane.]
18 Hianagi maka vahe'mo'za ranke hu'za kezati'za, Jisasina avreta ome ahenefrita, Barabasi katufe tamio! hu'naze.
Then the whole multitude burst out into a shout. "Away with this man," they said, "and release Barabbas to us"
19 [Barabasi'a, Jerusalemi rankumate kamani vahe ha' renezmanteno, mago vahe ahefrigeza kina huntageno mani'nea nere.]
--Barabbas! who had been lodged in jail for some time in connexion with a riot which had occurred in the city, and for murder.
20 Paeroti Jisasima atresigeno vanigu, mago'ene veara zamantahigene.
But Pilate once more addressed them, wishing to set Jesus free.
21 Hianagi zamagra mago'ane kezatiza, Rugeka zafare aheta hantiho! Rugeka zafare aheta hantiho! Huza nehazageno,
They, however, persistently shouted, "Crucify, crucify him!"
22 Paeroti'a mago'ene 3'a zupa zamantahigeno, Nagafarere? Nankna hazenke ama ne'mo'a hu'negeta nehaze? Nagrama kena eri fore'ma huana, friga hazenke'a osu'ne. E'ina hu'negu nagra kanonkeve amitena atresugeno vugahie.
A third time he appealed to them: "Why, what crime has the man committed? I have discovered in him nothing that deserves death. I will therefore give him a light punishment and release him."
23 Hianagi zamagra kazigazi hu'za, rankefinti antahige'za, Rugeka zafare ahefrio hu'zama hazankemo, Paerotina agu'a azeri rukrehe hu'ne.
But they urgently insisted, demanding with frantic outcries that He should be crucified; and their clamour prevailed.
24 Hagi kema hazare, Paeroti'a antahintahi'a retrohuno Jisasinkura ahefriho hu'ne.
So Pilate gave judgement, yielding to their demand.
25 Hagi zamagrama kamani vahe ha' renezmanteno vahe zamahe fri'nege'za kina hunte'naza neku'ma antahigaza ne' katufe nezamino, hanki Jisasina ahefrisunema hazagu avarezami'ne.
The man who was lying in prison charged with riot and murder and for whom they clamoured he set free, but Jesus he gave up to be dealt with as they desired.
26 Jisasima avare'za nevazageno mago Sailiniti (Afrika) nera agi'a Saimonikino, Jerusalemi ne-ege'za kantega ome nege'za, Jisasi rugeka zafa erio hu'za eri kofintageno erino Jisasina avaririno vu'ne.
As soon as they led Him away, they laid hold on one Simon, a Cyrenaean, who was coming in from the country, and on his shoulders they put the cross, for him to carry it behind Jesus.
27 Jisasina tusi'a vea kevumo'za avaririza nevazageno, ananpina mago'a a'nenagamo'za zamasunku hunente'za, zavite'za vu'naze.
A vast crowd of the people also followed Him, and of women who were beating their breasts and wailing for Him.
28 Hianagi Jisasi'a rukrahe huno nezmageno amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Jerusalemi kumate a'nemota nagrikura zavira oteta, tamagragu'ene mofavretamigu'enenku zavira ateho.
But Jesus turned towards them and said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
29 Antahiho, mago kna ne-eankiza vahe'mo'za anage hugahaze, narvo a'ne mo'zane, mofavre onte'anene, mofavre ami anuntage nosnamo'za muse hiho hu'za hugahaze.
For a time is coming when they will say, 'Blessed are the women who never bore children, and the breasts which have never given nourishment.'
30 Ana nehu'za zamagra agafa huza, ra agonamoka ankrisenka refiteranto, hu'za nehu'za, osi 'agonagura refiteranto hu'za hugahaze. (Hos 10:8)
Then will they begin to say to the mountains, 'Fall on us;' and to the hills, 'Cover us.'
31 Na'ankure kasefa huno me'nenia zafamofoma e'inahuma huntesuza, osapa zafamofona inanknaza fore hugahie?
For if they are doing these things in the case of the green tree, what will be done in that of the dry?"
32 Tare kumzafa netrene, Jisasine magoka zanahe frisazegu zanavre'za vu'naze.
They brought also two others, criminals, to put them to death with Him.
33 Aseni zaferine (Golkote) nehaza agonarema zamagra vute'za, Jisasine tare kumzafa netrena keka zafare zamahe'za hanti'naze. Magomofona Jisasi azantmaga ahe'za nehantiza, magomofona aza hoga hanti'naze.
When they reached the place called 'The Skull,' there they nailed Him to the cross, and the criminals also, one at His right hand and one at His left.
34 Hianagi Jisasi'a anage hu'ne, Nafanimoke, ontahine'za anara nehazanki, kumizmia atrezmanto. Anage nehige'za sondia vahe'mo'za zaza kena'a refko huza erinaku taisi zokogo re'naze. (Sam-Zga 22:18)
Jesus prayed, "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they are doing." And they divided His garments among them, drawing lots for them;
35 Ana nehazageno, hakare veamo'za anante otine'za uruha nehazageno, kva vahe'mo'zanena azanvanke hunte'za, vahe'mokizmia zamza nehia neki, Anumzamo huhamprintenemo Kraisi'ma mani'nesuno'a atregeno agra'a agu'vazisnigura kamaneno hu'za nehazageno,
and the people stood looking on. The Rulers, too, repeatedly uttered their bitter taunts. "This fellow," they said, "saved others: let him save himself, if he is God's Anointed, the Chosen One."
36 sondia vahe'mo'zanena azanava ke nehu'za, akahe'nea waini tina eme nemiza,
And the soldiers also made sport of Him, coming and offering Him sour wine and saying,
37 Kagra Jiu vahe'mokizmi kinima mani'nesunka, kagra ka'a kaguvazio! hu'za hu'naze.
"Are you the King of the Jews? Save yourself, then!"
38 Hanki asenirega anage hu'za avona kreza ome hentenaze, ama'i Jiu vahe'mokizmi kinie.
There was moreover a writing over His head: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
39 Mago kumzafa ne'ma aheza hantinaza nemo'enena Jisasina kesuno, Kagra Kraisiga omaninano? Kagraka'a kagu'nevazinka, tagri'enena taguvzio!
Now one of the criminals who had been crucified insulted Him, saying, "Are not you the Christ? Save yourself and us."
40 Hianagi mago'mo'a azerikorino, kagra Anumzamofonkura korera nosano? Ana mikomota anahukna knazampi mani'none.
But the other, answering, reproved him. "Do you also not fear God," he said, "when you are actually suffering the same punishment?
41 Tagra tamage huta hazenke hu'noa zamofo nona'a, eriga knaza eneru'e. Hianagi ama ne'mo'a mago hazenke osu'ne.
And we indeed are suffering justly, for we are receiving due requital for what we have done. But He has done nothing amiss."
42 Anantera anage huno ana ne'mo'a hu'ne, Jisasiga hihamukafima manisunka kagesa antahinamio.
And he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come in your Kingdom."
43 Higeno Jisasi'a anage huno ana nera asami'ne, Tamage hu'na negasamue, kagra menina Nagrane mona avasese zama'ane kumapina Paradaisi umanigahane.
"I tell you in solemn truth," replied Jesus, "that this very day you shall be with me in Paradise."
44 Hagi 12 kilokinaza higeno, maka mopafina hanimo refitegeno, kinaga 3 kilokuma higeno rumsa hu'ne.
It was now about noon, and a darkness came over the whole country till three o'clock in the afternoon.
45 Na'ankure zagemo'a ananknafina remsa osu'ne. Hagi ra mono nompi tafinaza tavravemo'a amu'nompinti ruhakeke huno fenkamu uramine.
The sun was darkened, and the curtain of the Sanctuary was torn down the middle,
46 Jisasi'a ranke huno, Nafa'nimoka kagri kazampi avamuni'a antoe nehuno vagare asimu atreno frine. (Sam-Zga 31:5)
and Jesus cried out in a loud voice, and said, "Father, to Thy hands I entrust my spirit." And after uttering these words He yielded up His spirit.
47 Sondia vahe'mokizmi kva ne'mo'a anazama hiazama negeno'a, agafa huno Anumzamofo agi erisaga nehuno, tamage ama fatgo nekino hazenkea omnene hu'ne.
The Captain, seeing what had happened, gave glory to God, saying, "Beyond question this man was innocent."
48 Hanki maka vea kevumo'za anazama fore hu'neaza ome kete'za ne-eza, zamasunku zampi zamarimpare zamaza refiteriri hu'za vu'naze.
And all the crowds that had come together to this sight, after seeing all that had occurred, returned to the city beating their breasts.
49 Hanki maka Jisasi rone'amo'zane, Galili kazigati Agrane e'naza a'nanemo'zane, ogantu umani'ne'za ana zama fore hiazana ke'naze.
But all His acquaintances, and the women who had been His followers after leaving Galilee, continued standing at a distance and looking on.
50 Mago nera Josefe'e nehaza nekino knare huno fatgo avu'va ene ne', kanisol vahe'pina mani'ne.
There was a member of the Council of the name of Joseph, a kind-hearted and upright man,
51 Kanisol vahe'mo'za Jisasima ahenakuma kema retroma hazankerera agra mago rimpa osu'nea nere. Ana nera Jiu vahe'mofo rankumapinti Aramatia nekino, Anumzamofo kumaku avega ante'ne.
who came from the Jewish town of Arimathaea and was awaiting the coming of the Kingdom of God. He had not concurred in the design or action of the Council,
52 Ana ne'mo'a Jisasi avufga erino ome asentenigu, Paeroti ome antahigeteno,
and now he went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.
53 vuno rugeka zafareti Jisasi avufga ome eri fenkma atreno, efeke tavravefi anovazino erino have fregeno hanagatinte'nea kampi ome antene. Magore huno ana havegampina kora fri vahera ome ontenefi ome ante'ne.
Then, taking it down, he wrapped it in a linen sheet and laid it in a tomb in the rock, where no one else had yet been put.
54 Mani fruhu kna (Sabat) eza hige'za ana knarera retrotra nehaza kna fore hu'ne.
It was the Preparation Day, and the Sabbath was near at hand.
55 Galiliti Jisasi amagema ante'za e'naza a'nemo'za, ana havegampima avufga'ama antazana ke'naze.
The women--those who had come with Jesus from Galilee--followed close behind, and saw the tomb and how His body was placed.
56 Anante rukrahe hu'za vu'za mana nentake'zane, masavene retro ome hu'naze. Mani fruhu kna (Sabat) zupa kasegemoma hu'nea kante anteza manigsa hu'naze.
Then they returned, and prepared spices and perfumes. On the Sabbath they rested in obedience to the Commandment.
