Lukka 23
1 Awo Olukiiko lwonna ne lusituka, ne batwala Yesu ewa Piraato.
And the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate.
2 Ne batandika okumuwawaabira nti, “Omuntu ono ajagalaza eggwanga lyaffe, ng’atuziyiza okuwa Kayisaali omusolo, nga yeeyita Kristo, kabaka.”
And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this [fellow] perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Cæsar, saying that he himself is Christ a King.
3 Piraato kwe kubuuza Yesu nti, “Ggwe kabaka w’Abayudaaya?” Yesu n’amuddamu nti, “Ggwe okyogedde.”
And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest [it].
4 Awo Piraato n’akyukira bakabona abakulu n’ekibiina ky’abantu n’abagamba nti, “Siraba musango muntu ono gw’azizza.”
Then said Pilate to the chief priests and [to] the people, I find no fault in this man.
5 Naye ne beeyongera okulumiriza nga bagamba nti, “Asasamazza abantu n’okuyigiriza kwe mu Buyudaaya mwonna. Yatandikira Ggaliraaya okutuukira ddala ne wano!”
And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place.
6 Piraato bwe yawulira ebyo kwe kubuuza nti, “Omuntu ono Mugaliraaya?”
When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilæan.
7 Bwe yategeera nga Yesu Mugaliraaya, n’amuweereza eri Kerode, kubanga Ggaliraaya kyali kifugibwa Kerode, ate nga Kerode mu kiseera ekyo yali ali mu Yerusaalemi.
And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem at that time.
8 Awo Kerode bwe yalaba Yesu, n’asanyuka nnyo, kubanga yali atutte ekiseera kiwanvu ng’ayagala okulaba Yesu. Era okuva ku ebyo bye yali amuwuliddeko yasuubira ng’ajja kumulaba ng’akolayo ekyamagero.
And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he was desirous to see him of a long [season], because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.
9 N’amubuuza ebibuuzo bingi, naye Yesu n’atamuddamu.
Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.
10 Mu kiseera ekyo, bakabona abakulu, n’abannyonnyozi b’amateeka baali awo mu busungu obungi ne baleekaanira waggulu nga bamulumiriza.
And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.
11 Kerode n’abaserikale be ne batandika okuduulira Yesu, n’okumuvuma. Ne bamwambaza ekyambalo ekinekaaneka, ne bamuzzaayo ewa Piraato.
And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked [him], and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.
12 Ku lunaku olwo lwennyini, Kerode ne Piraato, abaali bakyawaganye, ne bafuuka ba mukwano.
And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between themselves.
13 Awo Piraato n’akuŋŋaanya bakabona abakulu, n’abakulembeze b’Abayudaaya, n’abantu,
And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
14 n’abagamba nti, “Mwandeetedde omuntu ono nga mumuwawaabira nti asasamaza abantu bajeeme. Mubuuzizza nnyo era ne neetegereza bulungi ensonga eyo nga nammwe we muli, naye ne nsanga nga talina musango ku ebyo bye mumuwawaabidde.
Said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth the people: and, behold, I, having examined [him] before you, have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him:
15 Ne Kerode naye tamulabyeko musango era kyavudde amukomyawo gye tuli. Omuntu ono talina ky’akoze kimusaanyiza kibonerezo kya kufa.
No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing worthy of death is done unto him.
16 Noolwekyo ŋŋenda mukangavvulamu, ndyoke mmusumulule.”
I will therefore chastise him, and release [him].
17 Ku buli mbaga ya Kuyitako, Piraato ng’ateekwa okubateera omusibe omu.
(For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)
18 Ekibiina kyonna ne kireekaana nnyo nti, “Oyo mutte! Otuteere Balaba.”
And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this [man], and release unto us Barabbas:
19 Balaba ono yali asibiddwa lwa kukulembera kasasamalo mu kibuga, era n’olw’obutemu.
(Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison.)
20 Piraato olw’okwagala okusumulula Yesu, n’ayongera okwogera nabo.
Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake again to them.
21 Naye ne beeyongera okuleekaana nti, “Mukomerere ku musaalaba! Mukomerere ku musaalaba!”
But they cried, saying, Crucify [him], crucify him.
22 Piraato n’ayogera nabo omulundi ogwokusatu nti, “Lwaki? Azzizza musango ki? Sirabye nsonga yonna emusaanyiza kibonerezo kya kufa. Noolwekyo ka mmukangavvule, ndyoke mmusumulule.”
And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath he done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him, and let [him] go.
23 Naye ne beeyongera nnyo okuleekaana, n’okuwowoggana nga baagala Yesu akomererwe ku musaalaba. Era okuleekaana kwabwe ne kuwangula.
And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified. And the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed.
24 Awo Piraato n’akola nga bwe baayagala.
And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.
25 N’asumulula Balaba, gwe baasaba eyali asibiddwa olw’okusasamaza abantu n’olw’obutemu. Naye n’abakwasa Yesu bagende bamukole nga bwe baagala.
And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was cast into prison, whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus to their will.
26 Awo ne bafulumya Yesu okumutwala okumukomerera. Bwe baali bamutwala ne basanga omusajja Omukuleene erinnya lye Simooni, yali ava mu kyalo nga yaakayingira mu kibuga, ne bamuwaliriza okusitula omusaalaba gwa Yesu ku kibegabega kye; n’agusitula n’agutwala ng’atambulira emabega wa Yesu.
And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear [it] after Jesus.
27 Ekibiina kinene ne bagoberera Yesu nga mwe muli n’abakazi abaali bamukaabira nga bwe bakuba ebiwoobe.
And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him.
28 Naye Yesu n’abakyukira n’abagamba nti, “Abawala ba Yerusaalemi, temukaabira Nze, wabula mwekaabire era mukaabire n’abaana bammwe.
But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
29 Kubanga ekiseera kijja abakazi abatalina baana lwe baliyitibwa ab’omukisa ddala.
For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed [are] the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck.
30 “‘Baligamba ensozi nti, “Mutugweko,” n’obusozi nti, “Mutuziike.”’
Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.
31 Kale, obanga bino babikola ku muti omubisi, naye ku mukalu kiriba kitya?”
For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?
32 Waaliwo n’abasajja abalala babiri, bombi nga bamenyi ba mateeka, abaatwalibwa ne Yesu okuttibwa.
And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be put to death.
33 Awo bwe baatuuka mu kifo ekiyitibwa Ekiwanga, ne bamukomerera awo ku musaalaba, awamu n’abamenyi b’amateeka, omu ku ludda lwa Yesu olwa ddyo n’omulala ku ludda olwa kkono.
And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.
34 Yesu n’agamba nti, “Kitange, basonyiwe, kubanga kye bakola tebakimanyi.” Awo abaserikale ne bagabana ebyambalo bye nga babikubira akalulu.
Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.
35 Ekibiina ne kimutunuulira. Abakulembeze b’Abayudaaya ne bamusekerera nga bagamba nti, “Yalokolanga balala, ka tulabe naye bwe yeerokola, obanga ye Kristo wa Katonda Omulonde we.”
And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided [him], saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God.
36 N’abaserikale nabo ne bamuduulira ne bamuwa wayini omukaatuufu,
And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar,
37 nga bagamba nti, “Obanga ggwe Kabaka w’Abayudaaya, weerokole!”
And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.
38 Waggulu w’omutwe gwa Yesu ku musaalaba kwateekebwako ekiwandiiko mu bigambo bino nti, Ono ye Kabaka w’Abayudaaya.
And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
39 Omu ku bamenyi b’amateeka abaakomererwa naye n’avuma Yesu ng’agamba nti, “Si ggwe Masiya? Kale weerokole era naffe otulokole.”
And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.
40 Naye munne bwe baakomererwa n’amunenya, n’amugamba nti, “N’okutya totya Katonda, nga naawe oli ku kibonerezo kye kimu kya kufa?
But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?
41 Ffe tuvunaaniddwa bya nsonga, kubanga ebikolwa byaffe bitusaanyiza kino. Naye ono talina kisobyo kyonna ky’akoze.”
And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.
42 N’alyoka agamba nti, “Yesu, onzijukiranga bw’olijja mu bwakabaka bwo.”
And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.
43 Yesu n’amuddamu nti, “Ddala ddala nkugamba nti olwa leero ojja kubeera nange mu Lusuku lwa Katonda.”
And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.
44 Awo obudde bwe bwatuuka essaawa omukaaga ez’omu ttuntu, enzikiza n’ekwata ku nsi yonna, okutuusa ku ssaawa ey’omwenda,
And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.
45 kubanga enjuba yalekeraawo okwaka. Amangwago eggigi ly’omu Yeekaalu ne liyulikamu wabiri.
And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.
46 Awo Yesu n’ayogerera waggulu n’eddoboozi ery’omwanguka ng’agamba nti, “Kitange, nteeka omwoyo gwange mu mikono gyo.” Bwe yamala okwogera ebigambo ebyo, n’afa.
And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.
47 Omuserikale Omuruumi omukulu w’ekitongole eyakulembera abaserikale abaakomerera Yesu, bwe yalaba ebibaddewo, n’atendereza Katonda ng’agamba nti, “Mazima omuntu ono abadde mutuukirivu.”
Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.
48 Abantu bonna abaali bazze okwerolera, bwe baalaba ebibaddewo ne baddayo ewaabwe nga beekuba mu kifuba nga bajjudde ennaku nnyingi.
And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.
49 Mikwano gya Yesu, awamu n’abakazi abajja naye nga bamugoberera okuviira ddala e Ggaliraaya, baali bayimiridde nga beesuddeko akabanga, nga batunuulira byonna ebibaddewo.
And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.
50 Laba waaliwo omusajja erinnya lye Yusufu, ng’atuula mu Lukiiko Olukulu olw’Abayudaaya, yali musajja mulungi era nga mutuukirivu,
And, behold, [there was] a man named Joseph, a counsellor; [and he was] a good man, and a just:
51 teyakkirizaganya na banne mu ebyo bye baasalawo ku Yesu ne bye baakola. Yali wa mu kibuga Alimasaya eky’omu Buyudaaya. Yali ng’alindirira n’essuubi ddene okulaba obwakabaka bwa Katonda.
(The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them; ) [he was] of Arimathæa, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the kingdom of God.
52 Omusajja ono n’agenda eri Piraato n’asabayo omulambo gwa Yesu.
This [man] went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.
53 Bwe yaguggya ku musaalaba, n’aguzinga mu lugoye lwa linena olweru ennyo, n’agugalamiza mu ntaana ey’empuku eyali etemeddwa mu lwazi, era nga teziikibwangamu muntu.
And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid.
54 Bino byonna byaliwo ku Lwakutaano, olunaku olw’okweteekerateekerako ng’enkeera ye Ssabbiiti.
And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on.
55 Omulambo gwa Yesu bwe gwali gutwalibwa mu ntaana, abakazi abaava e Ggaliraaya ne bagoberera nga bavaako emabega, ne balaba entaana n’omulambo gwe nga bwe gwagalamizibwamu.
And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid.
56 Ne balyoka baddayo eka ne bategeka ebyakaloosa n’amafuta ag’okusiiga omulambo gwa Yesu. Naye ne bawummula ku Ssabbiiti ng’etteeka bwe liragira.
And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment.
