Yokaana 19
1 Awo Piraato n’atwala Yesu n’amukuba embooko.
Then Pilate, therefore, took Jesus, and scourged him.
2 Abaserikale ne bakola engule ey’amaggwa ne bagissa ku mutwe gwa Yesu, ne bamwambaza olugoye olwa kakobe,
And, the soldiers, plaiting a crown out of thorns, placed it upon his head, and, a purple robe, cast they about him;
3 ne bajja w’ali ne bamugamba nti, “Mirembe, Kabaka w’Abayudaaya!” Ne bamukuba empi.
and kept coming unto him, and saying—Joy to thee! O King of the Jews!—and were giving unto him smart blows.
4 Piraato n’afuluma ebweru nate, n’agamba Abayudaaya nti, “Laba, mbaleetera Yesu ebweru, kyokka mutegeere nga nze ndaba taliiko musango.”
And Pilate went forth again outside, and saith unto them—See! I lead him unto you outside, that ye may take knowledge, that, no single fault, do I find in him.
5 Awo Yesu n’afuluma ng’atikkiddwa engule eyakolebwa mu maggwa, era ng’ayambaziddwa olugoye olw’effulungu, Piraato n’agamba Abayudaaya nti, “Mulabe omuntu oyo!”
Jesus, therefore, came forth outside, wearing the thorn crown, and the purple mantle. And he saith unto them—Lo! the Man!
6 Awo bakabona abakulu n’abaweereza bwe baamulaba, ne baleekaana nti, “Mukomerere, mukomerere!” Piraato n’abagamba nti, “Mmwe mumutwale mumukomerere. Nze simulabako musango.”
When, therefore, the High-priests and the officers saw him, they cried aloud, saying—Crucify! Crucify! Pilate saith unto them—Ye, take him, and crucify; for, I, find not in him, a fault.
7 Abayudaaya ne bamuddamu nti, “Ffe tulina etteeka, era okusinziira ku tteeka eryo asaanidde kuttibwa, kubanga yeeyita Omwana wa Katonda.”
The Jews answered him—We, have, a law, and, according to the law, he ought to die, because, Son of God, himself, he made.
8 Piraato bwe yawulira ekyo ne yeeyongera okutya.
When, therefore, Pilate heard this word, he was the more afraid;
9 N’azzaayo Yesu mu lubiri, n’amubuuza nti, “Oli wa wa?” Yesu n’atamuddamu kigambo.
and entered into the judgment-hall again, and saith unto Jesus—Whence, art, thou? But, Jesus, gave him no, answer.
10 Piraato n’amugamba nti, “Tonziramu? Tomanyi nga nnina obuyinza okukuta oba okukukomerera?”
Pilate, therefore, saith unto him—Unto me, dost thou not speak? Knowest thou not, that, authority, have I to release thee, and, authority, have I to crucify thee?
11 Yesu n’amuddamu nti, “Tewandibadde na buyinza ku Nze n’akatono, singa tebukuweebwa kuva waggulu. Noolwekyo abo abampaddeyo gy’oli be balina ekibi ekisinga.”
Jesus answered him—Thou couldst have had no authority against me, at all, if it had not been given unto thee from above. Therefore, he that delivered me unto thee, hath, greater sin.
12 Okuva mu kiseera ekyo Piraato n’asala amagezi okuta Yesu. Naye Abayudaaya ne baleekaana nga bagamba nti, “Bw’ota omuntu oyo nga tokyali mukwano gwa Kayisaali. Buli eyeefuula kabaka aba awakanya Kayisaali.”
For this cause, Pilate, began seeking to release him; but, the Jews, cried aloud saying—If this man thou release, thou art not a friend of Caesar, for, every one who maketh himself king, speaketh against Caesar.
13 Bwe baayogera batyo Piraato n’azza Yesu ebweru gye bali, n’atuula ku ntebe esalirwako emisango, mu kifo ekiyitibwa Amayinja Amaaliire, mu Lwebbulaniya Gabbasa.
Pilate, therefore, when he heard these words, led Jesus outside, and sat down upon a raised seat, in a place called Pavement, but, in Hebrew, Gabbatha.
14 Lwali lunaku lwa kutegeka Mbaga ejjuukirirwako Okuyitako. Essaawa zaali nga mukaaga ez’omu ttuntu. Piraato n’agamba Abayudaaya nti, “Kabaka wammwe wuuno!”
Now it was the preparation of the passover, —it was about the sixth hour. And he saith unto the Jews—See! your King!
15 Abayudaaya ne baleekaana nga bagamba nti, “Mukomerere, mukomerere!” Piraato n’ababuuza nti, “Kabaka wammwe gwe mba nkomerera?” Bakabona abakulu ne baddamu nti, “Tetulina kabaka mulala, wabula Kayisaali.”
They, therefore, cried aloud—Away! away! Crucify him! Pilate saith unto them—Your king, shall I crucify? The High-priests answered—We have no king but Caesar!
16 Piraato n’abawa Yesu okumukomerera. Awo ne batwala Yesu;
Then, therefore, he delivered him up unto them, that he might be crucified. They took possession, therefore, of Jesus.
17 n’afuluma nga yeetisse omusaalaba gwe, n’atuuka mu kifo ekiyitibwa eky’Ekiwanga, mu Lwebbulaniya kiyitibwa Gologoosa.
And, bearing for himself the cross, he went forth unto the so-called Skull-place, which is named, in Hebrew, Golgotha;
18 Ne bamukomerera ku musaalaba mu kifo ekyo. Era ne bakomerera n’abalala babiri, omu eruuyi n’omulala eruuyi, Yesu n’abeera wakati waabwe.
where, him, they crucified; and, with him, other two, on this side and on that, and, in the midst, Jesus.
19 Piraato n’akola ekiwandiiko n’akiteeka ku musaalaba, nga kisoma nti: “Yesu Omunnazaaleesi, Kabaka w’Abayudaaya.”
And Pilate wrote a title also, and placed on the cross; and there was written—JESUS, THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
20 Ekifo kye baakomereramu Yesu kyali kumpi n’ekibuga, era Abayudaaya bangi abaasoma ekiwandiiko ekyo kubanga kyali mu Lwebbulaniya, ne mu Lulatini ne Luyonaani.
This title, therefore, read many of the Jews, because, near, was the place to the city where Jesus was crucified; and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, in Greek.
21 Awo bakabona abakulu ab’Abayudaaya ne bagamba Piraato nti, “Towandiika nti, ‘Kabaka w’Abayudaaya,’ naye nti, ‘Oyo eyeeyita Kabaka w’Abayudaaya.’”
The High-priests of the Jews, therefore, were saying unto Pilate—Do not be writing, The King of the Jews; but that, he, said: King of the Jews, I am.
22 Piraato n’addamu nti, “Ekyo kye mpandiise kye mpandiise.”
Pilate answered—What I have written, I have written!
23 Abaserikale bwe baamala okukomerera Yesu, ne baddira engoye ze ne baziteeka emiteeko ena. Buli muserikale n’afuna omuteeko gumu. Ne baddira ekkanzu ye, eyali erukiddwa obulukibwa yonna,
The soldiers, therefore, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts, unto each soldier, a part; also the tunic. Howbeit, the tunic was without seam, from above, woven throughout.
24 abaserikale ne bagambagana nti, “Tuleme kugiyuzaamu naye tugikubire kalulu, tulabe anaagitwala.” Kino kyabaawo okutuukiriza ekyawandiikibwa ekigamba nti: “Baagabana ebyambalo byange, n’ekkanzu yange ne bagikubira akalulu.” Ekyo kyennyini abaserikale kye baakolera ddala.
They said, therefore, one to another—Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose, it shall be; —that, the Scripture, might be fulfilled—They parted my garments amongst them, and, for my vestment, they cast lots: —yes verily, the soldiers, these things did.
25 Okumpi n’omusaalaba gwa Yesu waali wayimiriddewo nnyina, ne muganda wa nnyina, ne Maliyamu muka Kuloopa, ne Maliyamu Magudaleene.
And there were standing by the cross of Jesus, his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary the Magdalene.
26 Yesu bwe yalaba nnyina, era n’omuyigirizwa Yesu gwe yayagalanga ennyo ng’ayimiridde awo, n’agamba nnyina nti, “Maama, laba omwana wo.”
Jesus, therefore, seeing his mother and the disciple whom he loved, saith unto his mother—O woman, see! thy son!
27 Ate n’agamba omuyigirizwa nti, “Laba maama wo.” Okuva olwo omuyigirizwa oyo n’atwala nnyina Yesu eka ewuwe.
Afterwards, he saith unto the disciple—See! thy mother! And, from that hour, the disciple took her unto his own home.
28 Yesu bwe yamanya nga byonna biwedde, ekyawandiikibwa kiryoke kituukirire, n’ayogera nti, “Ennyonta ennuma.”
After this, Jesus, knowing that, already, all things, have been finished, —that the Scripture might be fulfilled, saith—I thirst!
29 Waali wateekeddwawo ekibya ekijjudde wayini omukaatuufu, ne bannyikamu ekyangwe, ne bakiteeka ku kati ka ezobu ne bakiteeka ku mumwa gwa Yesu.
A vessel, was standing, full of vinegar. A sponge, therefore, full of the vinegar, put about, hyssop, brought they unto his mouth.
30 Bwe yakombako n’agamba nti, “Kiwedde.” N’akutamya omutwe gwe n’awaayo obulamu bwe.
When, therefore, he had received the vinegar, Jesus said—It is finished! And, bowing his head, delivered up his spirit.
31 Olunaku nga bwe lwali olw’okweteekerateekera Ssabbiiti eyo enkulu ennyo, abakulembeze b’Abayudaaya ne batayagala mirambo kusigala ku misaalaba. Kyebaava basaba Piraato abaakomererwa bamenyebwe amagulu era bawanulweyo.
The Jews, therefore, since it was, a preparation, that the bodies might not remain upon the cross during the Sabbath, —for that Sabbath day was, great, requested Pilate that their legs might be broken, and they be taken away.
32 Awo abaserikale ne bajja ne bamenya amagulu g’abasajja abaakomererwa ne Yesu.
The soldiers, therefore, came; and, of the first, indeed, brake the legs, and of the other who was crucified with him, —
33 Naye bwe batuuka ku Yesu ne balaba nga yafudde dda, ne batamumenya magulu.
but coming, unto Jesus, when they saw that, already, he was dead, they brake not his legs; —
34 Naye omu ku baserikale n’amufumita effumu mu mbiriizi, amangwago ne muvaamu omusaayi n’amazzi.
but, one of the soldiers, with a spear, pierced, his side, and there came out, straightway, blood and water.
35 Oyo eyakirabira ddala nga kibaawo ye yakyogera, era kye yayogera kya mazima, era oyo amanyi ng’ayogera mazima mulyoke mukkirize.
And, he that hath seen, hath borne witness; and, genuine, is his testimony, and, he, knoweth that he saith, what is true, that, ye also, may believe.
36 Bino byabaawo ekyawandiikibwa kiryoke kituukirire ekigamba nti: “Talimenyebwa gumba na limu.”
For these things came to pass, that, the Scripture, might be fulfilled—A bone thereof, shall not be crushed;
37 Era ekyawandiikibwa ekirala kigamba nti, “Balimulaba oyo gwe baafumita.”
and, again, a different Scripture, saith—They shall look unto him whom they pierced.
38 Ebyo bwe byaggwa, Yusufu ow’e Alimasaya, eyali omuyigirizwa wa Yesu mu kyama olw’okutya Abayudaaya, n’asaba Piraato olukusa okuwanulayo omulambo gwa Yesu, Piraato n’amukkiriza. Yusufu n’aguwanulayo n’agutwala.
But, after these things, Joseph from Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but having kept it secret for fear of the Jews, requested Pilate, that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave permission. He came, therefore, and took away his body.
39 Nikodemo, eddako eyagenda eri Yesu ekiro, naye n’ajja ng’aleese kilo ng’amakumi ataano ez’ebyakoloosa ebitabule n’envumbo.
There came, moreover, Nicodemus also, —he that came unto him by night at the first, —bearing a roll of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds’ weight.
40 Ne batwala omulambo gwa Yesu, ne baguzinga mu ngoye eza linena wamu n’ebyakaloosa ng’empisa y’Abayudaaya ey’okuziika bwe yali.
So they received the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen-bandages with the spices, —just as it is, a custom, with the Jews to prepare for burial.
41 Mu kifo Yesu we yakomererwa waaliwo ennimiro omwali entaana empya ey’empuku, eyali teziikibwangamu muntu.
Now there was, in the place where he was crucified, a garden; and, in the garden, an unused tomb, wherein, as yet, no one had been laid.
42 Nga bwe lwali olunaku lw’Abayudaaya olw’okweteekerateekera Ssabbiiti ate ng’entaana eno eri kumpi, Yesu ne bamussa omwo.
So, there, by reason of the preparation of the Jews, because, near, was the tomb, laid they Jesus.
