< Marko 15 >

1 Mulugulu katondo abhakulu bhamakuhani bhabhonene amwi nabhakaluka nabhandiki nalibhalaja lyone lya bhakaluka. Niwo nibhamubhoya Yesu nibhamusila ewa Pilato. Pilato namubhusha, “awe ulimkama wabhayahudi?”
At earliest dawn, after the High Priests had held a consultation with the Elders and Scribes, they and the entire Sanhedrin bound Jesus and took Him away and handed Him over to Pilate.
2 “Naika, “Awe waika kutyo.”
So Pilate questioned Him. "Are you the King of the Jews?" he asked. "I am," replied Jesus.
3 Abhakulu bha makuhani nibhelesha obhubhambasi bhwanfu ku Yesu.
Then, as the High Priests went on heaping accusations on Him,
4 Pilato namubhusha bhuyaya, “Utakwaika chonachona? Utakulola kutyo abhakubhambalila ku misango myanfu?
Pilate again and again asked Him, "Do you make no reply? Listen to the many charges they are bringing against you."
5 Nawe Yesu atamusubhishe Pilato, nalugula muno.
But Jesus made no further answer: so that Pilate wondered.
6 Kulwakutyo mu mwanya gwaisikukuu abhegulilaga omubhoywa umwi, bhasabhile omubhoywa umwi.
Now at the Festival it was customary for Pilate to release to the Jews any one prisoner whom they might beg off from punishment;
7 Bhaliga bhaliwo abhakai mwigeleza, abho bhaliga bhabhoyelwe kwebhikayo bhyokwita. Aliga aliwo munu umwi nabhilikilwa Baraba.
and at this time a man named Barabbas was in prison among the insurgents--persons who in the insurrection had committed murder.
8 Likumo lyabhanu lyejile ku Pilato, nibhamusabhwa akole lwakutyo akolele inyuma eyo.
So the people came crowding up, asking Pilate to grant them the usual favour.
9 Pilato nabhabhwila naika, “Omwenda nibhegulile Omukama wabhayaudi?”
"Shall I release for you the King of the Jews?" answered Pilate.
10 Kulwokubha amenyele bhalina olwiso abhakulu bhamakuhani bhamugwatile Yesu nibhamuleta kwaye.
For he could see that it was out of sheer spite that the High Priests had handed Him over.
11 Nawe abhakulu bha makuhani bhabhwiliye abhanu bhayogane kwo bhulaka ati bhamwigulile Baraba nawe omwene uli.
But the High Priests urged on the crowd to obtain Barabbas's release in preference;
12 Pilato nabhabhwila bhuyaya naika, “Nikolechiya Mkama wa Bhayahudi?
and when Pilate again asked them, "What then shall I do to the man you call King of the Jews?"
13 Nibhayogana bhuyaya, “Mumubhambe”
they once more shouted out, "Crucify Him!"
14 Pilato naika, “Akola musangoki mubhibhi? Niwo bhagendeleye okuyogana muno “Mumubhambe.”
"Why, what crime has he committed?" asked Pilate. But they vehemently shouted, "Crucify Him!"
15 Pilato endele okubhakondelesha abhanu, namwigulila Baraba. Namubhuma Yesu emijeledi niwo nibhamusosha ajobhambwa.
So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the mob, released Barabbas for them, and after scourging Jesus handed Him over for crucifixion.
16 Abhalwani nibhamusila munkambi bhekumanyishe amwi abhalwani.
Then the soldiers led Him away into the court of the Palace (the Praetorium), and calling together the whole battalion
17 Nibhamuswikila Yesu ikanju yaizambalawe, nibhakonja ingofila ya mawa nibhamufwafya.
they arrayed Him in crimson, placed on His head a wreath of thorny twigs which they had twisted,
18 Nibhamba okumugaya nibhaika, Omukama wa Bhayahudi!”
and went on to salute Him with shouts of "Long live the King of the Jews."
19 Nibhamubhuma mumutwe nomuanzi nibhamufubhulila amachwanta. Nibhateja ebhijwi imbele yaye kwalisima.
Then they began to beat Him on the head with a cane, to spit on Him, and to do Him homage on bended knees.
20 Bhejile bhakamala okumugaya, nibhamufula ikanju iliya yaizambalawe nibhamufwafya jingubho jaye, nibhamusosha anja okuja okumubhamba.
At last, having finished their sport, they took the robe off Him, put His own clothes on Him, and led Him out to crucify Him.
21 Nibhamusinyilisha omunu okumusakila, oyo engilaga mujini nasoka mumashamba. Abhilikilwaga Simoni Mkirene (esemwene Isikanda na Rufo); nibhamusinyilisha okuyeka omusalabha gwa Yesu.
One Simon, a Cyrenaean, the father of Alexander and Rufus, was passing along, coming from the country: him they compelled to carry His cross.
22 Abhalwani nibhamusila Yesu awo kabhilikilwa Goligota (isonga yendeo ni, kulwotosi lwo mutwe).
So they brought Him to the place called Golgotha, which, being translated, means 'Skull-ground.'
23 Nibhamuyana impaye eyo itobhelemo na imanemane, tali atainyweye.
Here they offered Him wine mixed with myrrh; but He refused it.
24 Nibhamubhamba nibhagabhana jingubho jaye, nibhajibhumila jikula okulamula echipande echoalagega bhuli mulwani.
Then they crucified Him. This done, they divided His garments among them, drawing lots to decide what each should take.
25 Mumwanya gwa saa esatu katondo awo bhamubhambile.
It was nine o'clock in the morning when they crucified Him.
26 Nibhatula ingulu yaye olubau olwo lwandikilwe “Omukama wa Bhayahudi.”
Over His head was the notice in writing of the charge against Him: THE KING OF THE JEWS.
27 Bhamubhambile amwi nabhakai bhabhili, umwi mulubhala lwaye lwokulyo oundi mukumosi kwaye.
And together with Jesus they crucified two robbers, one at His right hand and one at His left.
28 “Naligambo nilikingila elyo lyaikilwe”
29 Abho bhalabhaoga bhamufumaga, nibhasingisha emitwe jebhwe nibhaika, “Aah! nawe owokulifumya likanisa nokulyumbaka nsiku esatu,
And all the passers-by reviled Him. They shook their heads at Him and said, "Ah! you who were for destroying the Sanctuary and building a new one in three days,
30 Isakila mwenekili utuke ansi usoke kumusalabha!”
come down from the cross and save yourself."
31 Musonga iliya iliya abhakulu wa makuhani bhamugaile nibhaikaga, amwi nabhandiki nibhaika, “Abhasakiye abhandi, nawe atakutula okwisakila mwenekili.
In the same way the High Priests also, as well as the Scribes, kept on scoffing at Him, saying to one another, "He has saved others: himself he cannot save!
32 Kristo Omukama wa Israel, tuka ansi oli usoke kumusalabha, niwo chilole nokwikilisha. Nabho bhabhambilwe amwinage bhamugaile.
This Christ, the King of Israel, let him come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe." Even the men who were being crucified with Him heaped insults on Him.
33 Yejile ikakinga saa sita, omwilima niguja ingulu yainsi yona adi saa tisa.
At noon there came a darkness over the whole land, lasting till three o'clock in the afternoon.
34 Mumwanya gwa saa tisa, Yesu alilile kwalilaka enene, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabaktani?” ilinaisonga “Nyamuwanga wani, Nyamuwanga wani, kubhaki wansiga?”
But at three o'clock Jesus cried out with a loud voice, "Elohi, Elohi, lama sabachthani?" which means, "My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken me?"
35 Abho bhaliga bhemeleguyu bhejile bhakongwa nibhaika, “Lola, kamubhilikila Eliya.”
Some of the bystanders, hearing Him, said, "Listen, he is calling for Elijah!"
36 Munu umwi nabhilima, nenika isiponji musiki naitunga kwiti lyo muanzi, namuyana anywe. Munu umwi naika, “Siga chilole labha Eliya alaja okumutusha ansi.”
Then a man ran to fill a sponge with sour wine, and he put it on the end of a cane and placed it to His lips, saying at the same time, "Wait! let us see whether Elijah will come and take him down."
37 Niwo Yesu nalila kwalilaka muno nafwa.
But Jesus uttered a loud cry and yielded up His spirit.
38 Lipazia lya Ikanisa niligabhanyika kabhili okusoka ingulu okuja emwalo.
And the curtain in the Sanctuary was torn in two, from top to bottom.
39 Afisa umwi oyoaliga emeleguyu namulolela Yesu, ejile akalola nafwa kutyo, naika, “Chimali omunu unu aliga alimwana wa Nyamuwanga.”
And when the Centurion who stood in front of the cross saw that He was dead, he exclaimed, "This man was indeed God's Son."
40 Bhaliga bhaliwo abhagasi nibhalola bhalikula. Abhobhaliga bhaliwo ni Mariamu Magdalena, Mariamu (nyilamwene Yakobo omutoto wa Yose), na Salome.
There were also a party of women looking on from a distance; among them being both Mary of Magdala and Mary the mother of James the Little and of Joses, and Salome--
41 Akatungu ali Galilaya bhamulubhile nibhamukolela. Nabhagasi abhandi abhanfu bhagendaga nage mpaka Yerusalemu.
all of whom in the Galilaean days had habitually been with Him and cared for Him, as well as many other women who had come up to Jerusalem with Him.
42 Yejile ikabha kegolo, kulwokubha lwaliga lulilusiku lwamaandaliyo, olusiku ichali kwingila isabhao,
Towards sunset, as it was the Preparation--that is, the day preceding the Sabbath--
43 Yusufu wa Arimathaya ejile aliya. Aliga alimukosi walibhalaja oyo akusiibhwaga omunu oyoabhwendaga Obhukama bhwa Nyamuwanga. Kwo bhuigi nagenda ewa Pilato, nasabhwa omubhili gwa Yesu.
Joseph of Arimathaea came, a highly respected member of the Council, who himself also was living in expectation of the Kingdom of God. He summoned up courage to go in to see Pilate and beg for the body of Jesus.
44 Pilato nalugushwa ati Yesu afuye; namubhilikila afisa uliya namubhusha labha Yesu afuye.
But Pilate could hardly believe that He was already dead. He called, however, for the Centurion and inquired whether He had been long dead;
45 Ejile akabhanechimali okusoka ku afisa ati afwa, namwikilisisha Yusufu okugugega omubhili.
and having ascertained the fact he granted the body to Joseph.
46 Yusufu aliga agulile lisanda. Namusosha Yesu okusoka mumusalabha, namusemba nalisanda, namusika mukabhuli eyoyasimbilwe agati yalibhwii. Niwo nailingisha libhwii kumulyango gwaikabhuli.
He, having bought a sheet of linen, took Him down, wrapped Him in the sheet and laid Him in a tomb hewn in the rock; after which he rolled a stone against the entrance to the tomb.
47 Mariamu Magdalena na nyilamwene Yose bhalolele awo bhamusikile Yesu.
Mary of Magdala and Mary the mother of Joses were looking on to see where He was put.
