< Makko 15 >
1 Amangwago mu makya olukiiko lwa bakabona abakulu, n’abakulembeze b’Abayudaaya, n’abannyonnyozi b’amateeka lwe Lukiiko Olukulu lwonna, ne bakuŋŋaana ne basiba Yesu, ne bamuweereza ewa Piraato.
Immediately in the morning the chief priests, with the elders, scribes, and the whole council, held a consultation, bound Jesus, carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate.
2 Piraato n’abuuza Yesu nti, “Ggwe Kabaka w’Abayudaaya?” Yesu n’amuddamu nti, “Oyogedde.”
Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered, “So you say.”
3 Awo bakabona abakulu ne bamulumiriza ebintu bingi.
The chief priests accused him of many things.
4 Naye Piraato n’addamu n’amubuuza nti, “Lwaki toliiko ky’oddamu? Laba bakulumiriza ebintu bingi.”
Pilate again asked him, “Have you no answer? See how many things they testify against you!”
5 Naye Yesu n’asirika busirisi, era Piraato n’amwewuunya nnyo.
But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate marvelled.
6 Ku buli mbaga, Piraato yabateeranga omusibe omu gwe baabanga bamusabye.
Now at the feast he used to release to them one prisoner, whomever they asked of him.
7 Omu ku basibe mu kiseera ekyo yali ayitibwa Balaba, eyali asibiddwa ne bajeemu banne olw’okutta abantu nga bakola obwegugungo.
There was one called Barabbas, bound with his fellow insurgents, men who in the insurrection had committed murder.
8 Awo Piraato n’agenda eri ekibiina n’ababuuza nga bwe yateranga okukola.
The multitude, crying aloud, began to ask him to do as he always did for them.
9 N’ababuuza nti, “Mwandyagadde mbasumululire kabaka w’Abayudaaya?”
Pilate answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”
10 Kubanga yamanya nga bakabona abakulu bamuwaddeyo lwa buggya.
For he perceived that for envy the chief priests had delivered him up.
11 Naye bakabona abakulu ne bafukuutirira ekibiina babateere Balaba sso ssi Yesu.
But the chief priests stirred up the multitude, that he should release Barabbas to them instead.
12 Naye Piraato n’addamu n’ababuuza nti, “Omuntu ono gwe muyita kabaka w’Abayudaaya mwandyagadde mmukole ntya?”
Pilate again asked them, “What then should I do to him whom you call the King of the Jews?”
13 Ne bawowoggana nti, “Mukomerere!”
They cried out again, “Crucify him!”
14 Piraato n’ababuuza nti, “Lwaki? Azziza musango ki?” Naye bo ne beeyongera bweyongezi okuleekaana nti, “Mukomerere.”
Pilate said to them, “Why, what evil has he done?” But they cried out exceedingly, “Crucify him!”
15 Awo Piraato okusanyusa ekibiina, n’abasumululira Balaba. N’awaayo Yesu akomererwe ng’amaze okumukuba.
Pilate, wishing to please the multitude, released Barabbas to them, and handed over Jesus, when he had flogged him, to be crucified.
16 Awo Abaserikale ne batwala Yesu mu luggya lw’olubiri, oluyitibwa Pulayitoliyo, ne bayita bannaabwe bonna abakuuma olubiri, ne bakuŋŋaana.
The soldiers led him away within the court, which is the Praetorium; and they called together the whole cohort.
17 Ne bamwambaza ekyambalo ekya ffulungu, ne bakola engule mu maggwa ne bagissa ku mutwe gwe.
They clothed him with purple; and weaving a crown of thorns, they put it on him.
18 Ne balyoka bamulamusa nga bwe bagamba nti, “Mirembe! Kabaka w’Abayudaaya!”
They began to salute him, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
19 Ne bamukuba omuggo ku mutwe, ne bamuwandulira amalusu, ne bamufukaamirira nga bwe bamuvuunamira.
They struck his head with a reed and spat on him, and bowing their knees, did homage to him.
20 Bwe baamala okumuduulira, ne bamwambulamu ekyambalo ekya ffulungu ne bamwambaza engoye ze, ne bamutwala okumukomerera.
When they had mocked him, they took the purple cloak off him, and put his own garments on him. They led him out to crucify him.
21 Bwe baali bagenda ne basanga omusajja erinnya lye Simooni ow’e Kuleene, kitaawe wa Alegezanda ne Luufo eyali ava mu kyalo, ne bamuwaliriza yeetikke omusaalaba gwa Yesu.
They compelled one passing by, coming from the country, Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to go with them that he might bear his cross.
22 Awo ne batwala Yesu ne bamutuusa mu kifo ekiyitibwa Gologoosa, amakulu gaakyo nti Ekifo ky’Ekiwanga.
They brought him to the place called Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, “The place of a skull.”
23 Ne baddira wayini atabuddwamu envumbo ne bamuwa anyweko, naye n’amugaana.
They offered him wine mixed with myrrh to drink, but he didn’t take it.
24 Awo ne bamukomerera ku musaalaba. Ne bagabana ebyambalo bye nga babikubira akalulu.
Crucifying him, they parted his garments amongst them, casting lots on them, what each should take.
25 Baamukomerera ku ssaawa ssatu ez’enkya.
It was the third hour when they crucified him.
26 Ne batimba ekipande waggulu w’omutwe gwa Yesu, okwawandiikibwa nti, “Kabaka w’Abayudaaya.”
The superscription of his accusation was written over him: “THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
27 Waaliwo abanyazi babiri abaakomererwa awamu naye, omu ku ludda lwa Yesu olwa ddyo, n’omulala ku kkono.
With him they crucified two robbers, one on his right hand, and one on his left.
28 Bwe kityo Ekyawandiikibwa ne kituukirira ekigamba nti, “Yabalirwa wamu n’abamenyi b’amateeka.”
The Scripture was fulfilled which says, “He was counted with transgressors.”
29 Awo abaali bayitawo, ne bakoteka ku mitwe gyabwe nga bamuduulira, nga bwe bagamba nti, “Mumulaba! Wagamba okumenya Yeekaalu n’okugizimbira ennaku ssatu,
Those who passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads and saying, “Ha! You who destroy the temple and build it in three days,
30 weerokole, okke wansi okuva ku musaalaba.”
save yourself, and come down from the cross!”
31 Bakabona abakulu n’abawandiisi nabo baali bayimiridde awo nga baduulira Yesu, nga bagamba nti, “Yalokola balala, naye ye tasobola kwerokola!
Likewise, also the chief priests mocking amongst themselves with the scribes said, “He saved others. He can’t save himself.
32 Ggwe! Kristo, Kabaka wa Isirayiri! Kale kka ove ku musaalaba naffe tunaakukkiriza!” N’abanyazi ababiri abaakomererwa naye, nabo ne bamuvuma.
Let the Christ, the King of Israel, now come down from the cross, that we may see and believe him.” Those who were crucified with him also insulted him.
33 Okuva ku ssaawa mukaaga ez’omu ttuntu okutuukira ddala ku ssaawa mwenda ez’olweggulo, ekizikiza ne kikwata ensi yonna.
When the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.
34 Awo Yesu n’akoowoola n’eddoboozi eddene nti, “Eroi, Eroi, lama, sabakusaani?” Amakulu nti, “Katonda wange, Katonda wange, Lwaki onjabulidde?”
At the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is, being interpreted, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
35 Abamu ku bantu abaali bayimiridde awo bwe baamuwulira ne bagamba nti, “Ayita Eriya.”
Some of those who stood by, when they heard it, said, “Behold, he is calling Elijah.”
36 Awo ne wabaawo eyadduka n’addira ekyangwe n’akijjuza wayini omukaatuufu, n’akisonseka ku luti, n’akiwanika eri Yesu anyweko, nga bw’agamba nti, “Mumuleke, ka tulabe obanga Eriya anajja n’amuwannulayo!”
One ran, and filling a sponge full of vinegar, put it on a reed and gave it to him to drink, saying, “Let him be. Let’s see whether Elijah comes to take him down.”
37 Awo Yesu n’akoowoola n’eddoboozi ddene, n’awaayo obulamu bwe.
Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and gave up the spirit.
38 Eggigi ery’omu Yeekaalu ne liyulikamu wabiri okuviira ddala waggulu okutuuka wansi.
The veil of the temple was torn in two from the top to the bottom.
39 Omuserikale Omuruumi eyakuliranga ekibinja ky’abaserikale ekikumi eyali ayimiridde okwolekera omusaalaba gwa Yesu, bwe yalaba enfa gye yafaamu, n’agamba nti, “Ddala ddala, omusajja ono abadde Mwana wa Katonda!”
When the centurion, who stood by opposite him, saw that he cried out like this and breathed his last, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God!”
40 Waaliwo abakazi abaali bayimiridde awo nga beesuddeko akabanga nga balengera, okwali Maliyamu Magudaleene, ne Saalome ne Maliyamu nnyina Yakobo omuto ne Yose.
There were also women watching from afar, amongst whom were both Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;
41 Abo baayitanga naye mu Ggaliraaya era nga bamuweereza, n’abalala bangi abajja naye e Yerusaalemi.
who, when he was in Galilee, followed him and served him; and many other women who came up with him to Jerusalem.
42 Awo bwe bwawungeera, kubanga lunaku lwa kuteekateeka, olunaku olukulembera Ssabbiiti,
When evening had now come, because it was the Preparation Day, that is, the day before the Sabbath,
43 Yusufu ow’e Alimasaya, nga mukungu mu Lukiiko Olukulu olw’Abayudaaya, naye eyali alindirira obwakabaka bwa Katonda, n’aba muvumu n’agenda eri Piraato okusabayo omulambo gwa Yesu.
Joseph of Arimathaea, a prominent council member who also himself was looking for God’s Kingdom, came. He boldly went in to Pilate, and asked for Jesus’ body.
44 Piraato ne yeewuunya nnyo okuba nti Yesu yafudde dda. N’atumya omuserikale Omuruumi eyali akulembera banne ekikumi, n’amubuuza obanga Yesu yafudde dda.
Pilate was surprised to hear that he was already dead; and summoning the centurion, he asked him whether he had been dead long.
45 Bwe yakikakasa okuva eri omuserikale, Piraato n’awa Yusufu omulambo.
When he found out from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.
46 Awo Yusufu n’agula olugoye olwa linena, n’amuggya ku musaalaba, n’amuzinga mu lugoye olwa linena, n’amuteeka mu ntaana eyali etemeddwa mu lwazi, n’ayiringisa ejjinja n’aggalawo omulyango gw’entaana.
He bought a linen cloth, and taking him down, wound him in the linen cloth and laid him in a tomb which had been cut out of a rock. He rolled a stone against the door of the tomb.
47 Maliyamu Magudaleene ne Maliyamu nnyina Yose baaliwo era baalaba Yesu we yateekebwa.
Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses, saw where he was laid.
