Johani 19
1 Linu Pilato ni cha hinda Jesu ni ku mushupa.
After that Pilate took Jesus and had him scourged;
2 Masole ni ba luka ihusi ya miya. Ni ba izwatika Jesu ku mutwi ni ku muzwatika muchizabalo cha mubala wabusimwine.
and the soldiers plaited a crown of thorns, placed it on his head, and threw a purple cloak about him, and kept marching up to him,
3 Ni chi beza kwali ni chi bati, “Yosho, Simwine wa Majuda!” mi ni chi ba mudama.
saying, "Hail! King of the Jews!" They also gave him blow after blow with their hands.
4 Linu Pilato ni cha zwila hanze hape mi ni chati kubali, “Mubone, Ni muleta hanze kwenu chokuti mwizibe kuti ka na na wana mulandu kwakwe.”
Pilate again came forth and said to the people, "See, I am going to bring his out to you, that you may clearly know that I find no crime in him,"
5 Chobulyo Jesu ni chazwila hanze, a ba zwete ihusi ya miya ni chizwato chamubala wa busimwine. Linu Pilato ni chawamba ku bali, “Mubone muntu!”
Then as Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, "BEHOLD, THE MAN!"
6 Linu ni hakwinabulyo bapurisita bakulwana ni basepahala chi ba bona Jesu, chi bahuweleza ni kuwamba kuti, “Mu mu kokotele, mu mu kokotele!” Pilato ni cha wamba kubali, “Mu muhinde mubene mi mu mu kokotele, mukuti ka kwina mulandu wa nawana kwali.”
So when the chief priests and the police saw him, they shouted. "Crucify him! Crucify him!" "Take him yourselves and crucify him," said Pilate, "for I find no crime in him."
7 Majuda ni chi ba mwitaba, “Twina mulao, mi chakuya cho wo mulao u swanela kufwa chokuti a ba libiki kuti Mwana we Ireeza.”
The Jews answered him, "We have a law, and by that law he ought to die, because he made himself out to be God’s Son,"
8 Linu Pilato ha zuwa ao manzwi, ni chaba ni kutiya ahulu,
Now when Pilate heard these words he was more alarmed than ever,
9 mi ni chenjila mu maofisi makando a mubuso hape ni chati kwa Jesu, “U zwa kuhi?” Kono Jesu kana a ba mwitabi.
and entering the Praetorium again, he said to Jesus, "What is your origin?"
10 Linu Pilato ni chati kwali, “I we ko wambi kwangu? Kana kawizi kuti ni na ziho za ku ku lukulula, ni ziho za ku ku kokotela?”
Jesus made no answer. So Pilate said to him. "Do you not speak to me? Do you not know that I have power to release you, or power to crucify you?"
11 Jesu ni cha mwitaba, “Kawina ziho heulu lyangu konji zi ba hewa kwako kuzwilila kwiulu. Ni hakwina bulyo, i ye ya ba ni hi kwako wina chibi chikando.”
"You would have no power over me," answered Jesus, "unless it had been given you from above. For this reason he who has betrayed me to you has the greater sin."
12 Che yi inkalabo, Pilato ni cha lika ku mulukulula, kono Majuda ni chi ba huweleza ni chi bati, “Heba ne u lukulula u zu muntu, kahena u mulikani wa Sesare: Zumwi ni zumwi u li bika busimwine u wamba cha kulwisa Sesare.”
After that Pilate began to seek to release him, but the Jews shouted out. "If you release this man you are no friend of the Emperor. Any man who makes himself out to be king is a rebel against the Emperor."
13 Linu Pilato ha zuwa ao manzwi, ni chaleta Jesu hanze mi ni chekala muchipula cha buatuli muchibaka chi sumpwa, “Chibaka chi Bumwinwe,” Kono mu chi Heberu, “Gabati.”
On hearing what they said, Pilate brought Jesus out and made him sit on the judge’s seat in a place called the Mosaic Pavement (the Hebrew name is Gabbatha).
14 Linu chi bali izuba lye ntukiso ye Impaseka, chi i bakusaka ku ba inako i kwana i yanza ni konke. Pilato ni chati ku Majuda, “Mubone, u zu simwine wenu!”
And it was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about six o’clock in the morning. Then he said to the Jews, "Behold your King!"
15 Ni chi bahuwa kuti, “Muzwise, muzwise; u mukokotele!” Pilato ni cha ti kubali, “ni kokotele Simwine wenu?” Ba purisita ba kulwana ni chi betaba, “Katwina Simwine esi bulyo Sesare,”
Then they shouted. "Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!" "Crucify your King?" said Pilate. The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar!"
16 Linu Pilato na ba ha Jesu kuti a kokotelwe.
So then he gave him over to them to be crucified.
17 Cwale ni bahinda Jesu, mi ni cha ya hanze, kulihindila chifapano i ye mwine, ku chibaka chi sumpwa “Chibaka cha Katendele,” I cho mu chi Heberu chi sumpwa, “Kologota.”
So they took Jesus, who went forth bearing his own cross, to a place called The Place of a Skull - in the Hebrew tongue, Golgotha.
18 Ba ba kokoteli Jesu u mo. Mi ne na ni bantu bamwi bo bele, yenke kwi neku ni neku lyakwe, ni Jesu ne na hakati.
There they crucified him; and with him two others, one on either side, and Jesus between them.
19 Pilato hape na ñola chisupo mi na chibika ha chifapano. Haho ha bañoletwe: JESU WA NAZARETA, SIMWINE WA MAJUDA.
And Pilate moreover wrote an inscription and placed it above the cross. What he wrote was, "JESUS, THE NAZARENE, KING OF THE JEWS"
20 Bungi bwa Majuda ni chi ba bala i cho chisupo chokuti chibaka cha ba kokotelwa Jesu chi bena hafuhi ni tolopo. Chisupo chi bañoletwe mu chi Heberu, mu chi Latini, ni mu chi Gerike.
This inscription was read by many of the Jews, because the place where they crucified Jesus was near the city, and the inscription was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.
21 Linu mupurisita mukulwana wa Majuda ni cha wamba kwa Pilato, “Kanji u ñoli, “Simwine wa Majuda; kono u ti, I ye mwine a ba wambi, “Njime ni Simwine wa Majuda.”
So the high priests of the Jews said to Pilate, "Do not write ‘King of the Jews,’ but ‘He said, I am King of the Jews.’"
22 Pilato ne taba, “Chi ni ba ñoli ni ba ñoli.”
Pilate answered, "What I have written, I have written!"
23 Ha bamana masole ku kokotela Jesu, ni chi bahinda zi zwato zakwe ni ku li abela che inkalulo zone; inkabelo ku isole ni isole, ni chizwato cha hewulu. Kono chizwato che hewulu ke na chibena mapeka, chi ba ku lukililwe hamwina ku zwililila kwiwulu.
After the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his garments and divided them into four parts, to each soldier a part, and the tunic. Now the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom;
24 Linu ni chi ba li wambila a bo beene, “Kanji tu chi ñatuli hakati, kono ni hakwina bulyo tulaule che loto i yo italuhanye kuti ka chi be chani,” I chi chiba chitahali chokuti iñolo li zuzilizwe li wamba kuti, “Ba ba lyiabili zizwato zangu mukati kabo; ba ba lauli che loto chizwato changu.”
so the soldiers said one to another. "Let us not tear it. Let us draw lots, to see whose it shall be" - that the Scripture might be fulfilled. They divided my garments among them, For my raiment did they cast lots. This was what the soldiers did.
25 Masole ba ba chiti izi zintu. Banyina wa Jesu, mwanche u banyina, Maria mwihabwe wa Kulopa, ni Maria Magadalena. A ba banakazi ba bazimene ku chifapano cha Jesu.
Now there stood near the cross of Jesus, his mother and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.
26 Jesu ha bona banyina ni mulutwana ya ba kusuna ni bazimine hembali, na ti ku banyina, “Mwanakazi, bone, mwanako!”
When Jesus saw his mother, and standing near her the disciple whom he loved, he said to his mother, "Woman behold your son."
27 Linu nchati ku mulutwana, “Bone, banyoko!” Kuzwililila he nako yo mulutwana na muhinda ku mutwala kumunzi wa kwe.
Then he said to the disciple, "Behold your mother." And from that hour the disciple took her to his home.
28 Ha kumana ichi Jesu, mukuti a bakwizi kuti zintu zonse linu chi zamana, kuti kwi zuzilizwe mañolo, ati, “Ni fwile inyotwa,”
After that, when Jesus knew that everything was now accomplished, he said in fulfilment of the words of Scripture, "I am thirsty."
29 Chibikilo chi bezwile i waine i canchumuka chi ba bikitwe aho, linu chi ba bika chiponji chi zwile i waine i chanchumuka ku mutabi we haisopu ni ku inyamwina ku kaholo ka kwe.
There was a jar full of vinegar standing there; and they filled a sponge with vinegar, and put it upon a stalk of hyssop, and put it to his lips.
30 Mi Jesu a cha nywine ku i waine i chanchumuka, chati, “Çhi kwamana.” Ni cha kotamisa mutwi wa kwe ni kuha luhuho lwakwe.
Then after he had taken the vinegar, Jesus said, "IT IS FINISHED!" And bowing his head, he yielded up his spirit.
31 Linu Majuda, chokuti i ba li izuba lya kuli bakanya, ni kuti mibili kanji i shali ha chifapano mu lye Insabata (Mukuti Insabata i bali ya butokwa ahulu), ni chi bakumbila Pilato kucholola matende a bo ni ku bahangula.
It was Preparation Day, so in order to prevent the bodies’ hanging on the cross during the Sabbath (for the Sabbath was a great day) the Jews begged Pilate to have the legs broken, and the bodies taken away.
32 Lunu masole chibeza ni kucholola matende a mukwame wa matangilo ni a mukwame wa bubeli ya ba kokotelwe ni Jesu.
So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man and of the other who had been crucified with him.
33 Linu ha be za kwa Jesu, chi ba bona kuti cha bafwile kale, chobulyo ka na ba ba muchololi matende.
But upon coming to Jesus they saw that he was already dead, and did not break his legs.
34 Ni hakubabulyo, zumwi wa masole cha muhweza mumpati yakwe ni mulinga, mi hohwaho malaha ni menzi ni za zwa.
One of the soldiers, however, pierced his side with a lance, and immediately blood and water flowed out.
35 I ye ya ba boni izi nja bapaki, imi bupaki bwakwe bwe niti. Wizi kuti cha ba wambi i niti njo kuti nanwe bulyo chi muzumina.
And he who saw it has borne testimony, and his testimony is trustworthy, and he knows that he is telling the truth in order that you may believe.
36 Chokuti izi zintu zi ba chitahali cha kwi zuziliza iñolo, “Kakwina nanta chimwina ku zifuha za kwe chete chi cholwe.”
For this happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled, Not one of his bones shall be broken.
37 Hape, limwi iñolo liti, “Ka ba lole kwali iye u ba bahwezi.”
And again another Scripture says, They shall look on him whom they have pierced.
38 Ha kumana izi zintu Josefa wa Arimatea, sina ha ba li mulutwana wa Jesu (kono cha kuliungula ka lyowa ku Majuda) cha kumbila Pilato heba u wola kuhinda mubili wa Jesu. Pilato cha muha chibaka. Linu Josefa ni cheza ni kuhinda mubili wakwe.
After these things Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but in secret because of fear of the Jews, asked Pilate for permission to take the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave him leave. So he came and took the body.
39 Nekudema na ye cheza, u zo kumatangilo ya bezite kwa Jesu masiku. A baleti i maire i kopenywe ni incenka, cha buima busika ha mwanda wonke.
Nicodemus also (the one who visited Jesus by night, at first) came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, weighing nearly a hundred pounds.
40 Linu chi bahinda mubili wa Jesu ni ku u zingelela mu majira a zi zabalo ni mi nunkiso, si na haibali chizo cha Majuda cha kuzika zitupu.
So they took the body of Jesus and wound it in linen with the spices, according to the Jewish mode of burial.
41 Linu muchibaka umo mwa ba kankamizwe, kubena luwa lwa zibyalantu; mi mwelyo iwa lya zi byalantu ku bena ikumbu ihya umo musena mu beni ku ungwa muntu kale.
There was a garden near the place where Jesus had been crucified, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had ever been laid.
42 Kakuti i ba li izuba lye intukiso za Majuda mi ni kuti ikumbu li bena hafuhi, ni ba lazika Jesu mwa teni.
Here, because of its being Preparation Day, and as the tomb was near by, they placed Jesus.
