Mateu 27
1 Ka kusasani ha ku sika, bonse ba kulwana ba mapurisita ni ba kulwana ba bantu ba ba li kufumba muba wola kwi hayila Jesu.
When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:
2 Ni ba musumina, ni kumu zwisa hateni, ni ku mu twala kwa Pilato mubusi.
And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
3 Linu ku zwaaho Judasi, ya ba muuzi, na bona Jesu cho nyanswa, mi na baka ni ku booza mali e ikumi ni to tatwe ku maprisita ba kulwana ni ba kulwana,
Then Judas, who had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,
4 mi nati, “Ni ba pangi chibi ku uza malaha a sena mulandu. “Mi ni ba cho, “Chinzi icho kwetu? U bone kwa teni umwine.”
Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.
5 Ku zwaho na sohela hansi bu wayawaya bwa mali mu itempele, cho ku katuka, mi na yenda kunze cho ku kali sungilila.
And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.
6 Ba kulwana ba maprisita ne ba hinda buwayawaya vwa mali mi ni ba mucho, “Ka ku lukeli ku bika a a mali mu chibikilo ka kuti mali a malaha.”
And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.
7 Ni ba wambola che yo indaba ha mwina mi chawo mali ni ba wuula iwaa lyo ku bumbila tu hambwe mwete ba ku zikwa ma buu kwenda.
And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter’s field, to bury strangers in.
8 Cheli ibaka lina iwa lisi sumpwa, “Iwaa lya malaha” ne linu izuba buti.
Therefore that field was called, The field of blood, to this day.
9 Nji kuti chiba wambiwa ni mupolofita Jelemaya chi izuzilizwa, cho kuti, “Ba ba hindi makumi otatwe o buwayawaya, mu wulo u ba tomwa haakwe ni bantu ba Isilaele,
Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;
10 Mi ni baiha ku mwiine we iwa lyo ku bumbila tu hambwe, sina Ireeza mwa bani heli chikuka.”
And gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord appointed me.
11 Linu Jesu na zima ha busu bo muyendisi, mi muyendisi na mu buza, “Kana njowe simwine wa ma Juda?” Jesu cho mwi taaba, “Mu wa cho.”
And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said to him, Thou sayest.
12 Kono ha baali kunyanswa ni ba kulwana ba mapurisita ni ba mwi ba kulwana, na bula kwi taaba chimwi.
And when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.
13 Ku zwaaho Pilato na mucho, “Ko zuwile yonse iyi milandu yo kwete u bikwa?”
Then saith Pilate to him, Hearest thou not how many things they testify against thee?
14 Kono na bula kwi taaba ne haiba li mwina inzwi, ku chita kuti mubusi na shala u komoketwa ahulu.
And he answered to him never a word; so that the governor marvelled greatly.
15 Linu ha mukiti chi bali chizo cho mubusi ku zwisa chifosi chi mwina cha salwa ne bantu bangi bangi.
Now at that feast the custom of the governor was to release to the people a prisoner, whom they would.
16 Cheyo inako yi swana ku bena ibantiti li ba fosahele ahulu, lyi bali ku sumpwa Barabasi.
And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.
17 Mi ha baba ku kuunganele ha mwina, Pilato na ba cho, “Njeni wumu saka kuti ni mumu lukulwile? Barabasi, nandi Jesu yo sumpwa Kiristi?”
Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, Whom will ye that I release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?
18 Kakuti a ba kuiizi kuti ba ba mu woondi bulyo cho muna.
For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.
19 Cho usii keere ha chipura choku watula, mu kaakwe na tumina linzwi kwaalyi nati, “Sanzi u pangi chimwi koozo muntu ya sena mulandu. Kakuti na nyanda ahulu maswe suunu mu chilooto che ibaka lyakwe.”
When he was seated on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.
20 Ku zwaaho mapurisita bakulwana ne ba kulwana ni ba shongelekeza bungi bungi bwa bantu kuti ba kumbile Barabasi, ne kuti Jesu iye e ihayiwe.
But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
21 Mubusi na ba buuza, “Njeni ku boobele wumu saka kuti nni mumu lukulwile?” Ne ba cho, “Barabasi.”
The governor answered and said to them, Which of the two will ye that I release to you? They said, Barabbas.
22 Pilato na ba cho, “Linu ni pange inzi cha Jeeso yoo sumpwa Kilisiti?” Bonse ni be taba, “A bambulwe.”
Pilate saith to them, What shall I do then with Jesus who is called Christ? They all say to him, Let him be crucified.
23 Mi na cho, “Ibaka, mulandu nzi waa ba pangi?” Mi a bo ni ba huwa ahulu hulu, “Mu mu bambule.”
And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.
24 Mi linu Pilato chinga bona kuti ka kwina cha wola ku panga, mane ni kuti chi kuba tangite mu nyunga, na hinda menzi, cho ku samba ku maanza ha busu bwa bantu bangi, cho kucho kuti, “Ka nina mu laandu cha malaha o zu muntu ya sena mulandu. Mu kuzwe kwenu kuti mu chita bule.”
When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.
25 Bantu bonse ni bati, “A malaha a kwe a be kweetu ne ku baana betu.”
Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
26 Ku zwaaho na ba sumunwina Barabasi, kono na shimeha Jesu ni ku mu baha kuti a bambulwe.
Then he released Barabbas to them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.
27 Ku zwaaho masole bo mubusi neba leta Jesu ku chikota china mu meekalo a mubusi ni ku kunganya masole mangi.
Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered to him the whole band of soldiers.
28 Ni ba mu zabula cho ku mu bwika chizabalo chi subila.
And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
29 Ku zwaaho ni ba panga i hwiisi yo miiya ne kuyi mu bika ha mutwi, choku mu bika inkoli mu iyanza lyakwe lya malyo. Ni ba fukama ha busu bwakwe neku musheunwina, niba cho, “Lumele, Simwine wa Majuda!”
And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
30 Mi neba muswila, mi niba hinda inkoli cho kuyi mu kabisa mu mutwi.
And they spat upon him, and took the reed, and struck him on the head.
31 Haba mana ku musheunwina, cho kumu zabula chizwato ku zwaaho cho kumu zabika zizabalo zaakwe, ne ku mu twala kuku bambulwa.
And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.
32 Haba bati chiba zwila hanze, ni ba waana unkosi yo zwila kwa Sayirine yo sumpwa Sayimoni, u baba hambiliza kuti a yende naabo ne kuti a mu kulikile chifapano.
And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross.
33 Ni beeza ku chibaka chi sumpwa Gologota, chi landununa kuti “Chibaka cha Kagoboli.”
And when they had come to a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,
34 Ni ba muha iwaine yiina shantukwe kuti a nywe. Mi chinga a yi soola, choku sayi nywa.
They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted it, he would not drink.
35 Haba mana kumu bambula, cho kuli kauhanyekeza zizabalo zakwe choku kaba indaula.
And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture they cast lots.
36 Ni be kala choku muliisa.
And sitting down they watched him there;
37 He iwulu lyo mutwi waakwe niba bika iñolo lyo mulandu, li baali ku balika kuti “Uzu nje Jesu, simwine wa Majuda.”
And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 Basaa bobeele ni ba kokotelwa naye, zumwi ku malyo a kwe mi zumwi ku ma moonso.
Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.
39 Ba baali ku hita ni ba mu tukoola, ni ba nyunga mitwi yabo
And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,
40 ni bati, “Uwe yo bali kuti moo rutunune itempele choku izaka mu ma zuba o tatwe, lihaze umwine! Haiba u Mwana we Ireeza, suke ha chifapaano!”
And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou art the Son of God, come down from the cross.
41 Che nzila i swana bapurisita ba kulwana ba baali ku musheunwina, ha mwina ni ba ñoli ni ba kulwana, ni bati,
Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,
42 “A ba ku haza bamwi, kono ka woli ku li haza mwiine. Njeye Simwine wa Isilaele. A suuke ha chifapano, mi ku zwaaho linu njete tu zumine mwaali.
He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he is King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.
43 U sepa mwe Ireeza, A Ireeza a mulamulele hahanu buti haiba u saka, ka kuti a baco kuti, 'Njeme mwanaswisu we Ireeza.'”
He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.
44 Mi basaa ba bati ni ba bambwilwe na ye naabo niba wamba matuka kwali.
The thieves also, who were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.
45 Linu ku zwaaho che inako yoku mana iyanza ne ka mwina kerima nika wumba inkanda yonse mbwita kuka sika ku inako yoku mana iyanza ne toone.
Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land to the ninth hour.
46 Che nako yoku mana iyanza ne toone Jesu na huwa che liinzwi ikando na cho, “Eli, Eli, La ma sabakatani?” yi landununwa kuti, “Ireeza wangu, Ireeza wangu, chinzi ho ni sohelele?”
And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
47 Linu ba mwi ba ba zi meene ukochinga ba zuwa bulyo, ni bati, “U kwete ku sumpa Elija.”
Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elijah.
48 Hohwaho bulyo zumwi waabo na tiya choku ka leta chi pongi, cho ku chi niika mwa shantukwe, ni ku chi bika ha luuhe, ni ku muha kuti a nywe.
And immediately one of them ran, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
49 Bungi bwabo ni bacho, “Mu mu siye yeyena. Tu bone kuti nandi Elija mweze a mu haaza.”
The rest said, Forbear, let us see whether Elijah will come to save him.
50 ku zwaaho Jesu hape na huwa che linzwi ikando cho kumana luuho.
Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the spirit.
51 Boone, i jira lyo mu itempele ni lya haluka ko beele ku zwila kwi uulu ku leta hansi. Mi inkanda ni ya nyanganya, ku zwaaho mabwe choku pwachuka hakati.
And, behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from the top to the bottom; and the earth shook, and the rocks were split;
52 Ma kuumbu ni e wuka, mi mi bili ya bantu ba shiyeme ba ba lele ni ba buuka.
And the graves were opened; and many bodies of saints who slept were raised,
53 Ni baazwa mu makuumbu chinga a buuka ku bafu, nibe njila mu muzi mukando u jolola, mane niba boneka ku bantu bangi.
And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared to many.
54 Mi musenchoriona na bo baba lolelele Jeeso ni ba boona kunyanganya kwe inkanda ni zintu zi bati niza pangahala, cho kuli kalililwa ahulu maswe ni bati, “Cho busakusima uzu ibali mwana we Ireeza.”
Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
55 Bakulwakazi bangi baba ke ichilile Jeeso ku kazwa kwa Galalia cho kumu babalela ba ba zimene butabule ni ba lolelele.
And many women were there beholding from afar off, who followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to him:
56 Mukati kaabo ku bena Maria Magadalena, Maria nyina wa Jakobo ni Josefa, ni nyina wa baanaswisu ba Zebedea.
Among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee’s children.
57 Chinga yaba chitengwana, ni kweza unkosi wo muhumi yo zwa kwa Arimatea, we izina lya Josefa, iye naye ya bali mulutwana wa Jesu.
When the evening was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was a disciple of Jesus:
58 Na ya kwa Pilato mi na ka kumbila mubili wa Jesu. Pilato na laela kuti a wu hewe.
He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.
59 Josefa na hinda mubili, na wu bungila mu ijila li jolola,
And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
60 mi choku kawu bika mu ikuumbu lyaakwe ihiyai lya ba hindi cho kuli beeza mu ibwe. Ku zwaaho na pindumwina ibwe ikando ha mulyango we ikuumbu mi nali yendela.
And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.
61 Maria Magadalena ni zumwi Maria ku ba bena, ni be keele he shilya lye kuumbu.
And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the sepulchre.
62 Izuba li chilila, i bali izuba lya lo mugivero, Ma purisita ba kulwana ni Bafarisai neba kunganela ha mwiina kwa Pilato.
Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together to Pilate,
63 Cho kuti, “Unkosi, tu kumbulukwa kuti zuna shaamapa cho usii hala, a bati nati, 'Kani buuke mazuba otatwe haa hita.'
Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.
64 Chingi linu u lukele ku laula kuti ikumbu lika liiswa ahulu maswe mbwita luzuba lo butatu. Ni kusabi bulyo balutwana bakwe mu beeze ba muyibe ku zwaaho cho kucho bantu, 'Cha ba buuki kubafu.' Ka kuti ku chenga kwa mamani mani mu ku zambe kwe ntanzi.”
Command therefore that the sepulchre be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say to the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first.
65 Pilato na bacho kuti, “Mu hinde shangabila. Muyende muka liliise hakando mu mu wolela monse.”
Pilate said to them, Ye have a watch: go, make it as secure as ye can.
66 Mi niba yenda cho kuka siinka che ibwe, choku viika shangavira.
So they went, and having sealed the stone, made the sepulchre secure, with a watch.
