Lioka 23
1 Aa le niongake i fifañosoñañey ninday aze mb’amy Pilato mb’eo,
AND the whole multitude of them rising up, led him to Pilate,
2 vaho nanisý aze ami’ty hoe: Nitrea’ay nitrobo ty tane’ay ondatio mbore rinara’e ty fandroroñam-bili-loha amy Kaisara, ie nihàboke t’ie i Norizan-ko mpanjakay.
and began to accuse him, saying, We have found this fellow perverting the nation, and forbidding to pay tribute to Caesar; pretending that he himself is the King Messiah.
3 Le hoe ty ontane’ i Pilato tama’e: Mpanjaka’ o Jiosio v’Iheo? Hoe ty natoi’e aze: Ie saontsie’o.
Then Pilate interrogated him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said to him, Thou sayest so.
4 Aa le hoe t’i Pilato amo mpisorom-beio naho i firimboñañey: Tsy mahatrea hakeo amo lahio iraho.
Then said Pilate unto the chief priests and the multitudes, I find nothing culpable in this man.
5 Fe nindrae’ iereo seseke ami’ty hoe: Ie mamalitsikotake ondatio, mbore nitsitsihe’e oke t’Iehodà hirike Galilia añe pak’ etoa.
But they were urgent, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching through all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place.
6 Ie jinanji’ i Pilato izay le nañontane hera nte Galilia ondatio.
When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilean?
7 Ie nifohi’e t’ie borizà’ i Heroda, le nampanesefe’e mb’amy Heroda mb’eo, amy te ie ka e Ierosaleme ao henane zay.
And when he knew that he came out of Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was himself at Jerusalem in those days.
8 Akore ty haeha’ i Heroda te nahaoniñe Iesoà; fa haehae ty nisalalà’e te hahaisak’ aze ty amo hene raha nijanjiñe’e ty ama’eo vaho naina’e te ho nisamba ze viloñe fanoe’e.
Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was vastly delighted: for he had been long desirous to see him, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to see some miracle wrought by him.
9 Aa le nimanea’e ontane, fe leo raike tsy natoi’e.
And he put a variety of questions to him; but he made him no reply.
10 Nijohañe ey avao o mpisorom-beio naho o mpanoki-dilio nitolon-tsisý ama’e.
And the chief priests and the scribes stood up vehemently accusing him.
11 Aa ie fa nikobike aze t’i Heroda naho o lahin-defo’eo, naho nikizahe’ iereo ami’ty nampiombeañe lamba marerarera, le nampolieñe mb’amy Pilato mb’eo.
Then Herod with his guards treated him with contempt, and in derision clothed him in a splendid robe, and sent him back to Pilate.
12 Amy àndroy, le lia’e nimpirañetse t’i Heroda naho i Pilato, ie mpifandrafe taolo.
And Pilate and Herod the same day became friends together: for they had previously been at enmity with each other.
13 Natonto’ i Pilato o mpisorom-beio, naho o mpifehe ondatio, vaho i màroy,
Then Pilate, convoking the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
14 le hoe re tam’iereo: Nandesa’ areo amako t’indaty toy hoe mpanigike ondatio hiola. Aa ndra t’ie nimaneako ontane añatrefa’areo, tsy mahatrea tahiñe am’ondatio amo anisìa’ areo azeo.
said unto them, Ye have brought this man to me, as one who perverteth the people: and lo! on examining him before you, I have found nothing culpable in this man, respecting the charges ye bring against him:
15 Aiy, ndra i Heroda, kanao nampolie’e mb’aman-tika; ndra loli’e tsy nanoe’e hañohofan-doza ama’e.
nor Herod neither: for I referred you to him; and, lo, nothing is done to this man, as if he deserved death.
16 Aa le ho liloveko re vaho havotsoko.
I will therefore, after scourging, discharge him.
17 (Toe lili’e ty namotsotse am’ iareo ty mpirohy raik’ amy Sabadidakey).
(Now he held it necessary to release one to them at the feast.)
18 F’ie nikoik’ an-kapindre ty hoe: Aseseo añe ondatio, le hahao ama’ay t’i Barabasy —
Then the whole multitude set up a cry, saying, Away with this fellow, and release unto us Barabbas!
19 i najòñe ambalabey ao ami’ty fiolà’e an-drova ao naho ami’ty vono-ondatiy.
(who for a certain sedition raised in the city, and for murder, had been cast into prison.)
20 Aa ie te hañaha Iesoà t’i Pilato le nindrai’e i linaño’ey.
Again therefore Pilate called out to them, desirous to see Jesus at liberty.
21 Fe kinorà’ iareo ty hoe: Peho, Peho re!
But they clamoured the more, saying, Crucify, crucify him.
22 Le hoe re fañin-telo’e am’iereo: Fa akore! Inoñe ty raty nanoe’e? Tsy treako ty talim-pamonoañe aze, ho liloveko vaho hahako.
Then the third time he said to them, What evil hath this man done? I have found nothing deserving death in him: I will therefore, after scourging, discharge him.
23 Fe nitolom-pitazataza iereo, nangatake t’ie ho peheñe. Aa le nahareketse aze ty feo’ ondatireo naho o mpisorom-beio
But they were instant with the most clamorous vociferations, soliciting that he might be crucified. And their clamours, and those of the chief priests, bore him down.
24 vaho linili’ i Pilato te hanoeñe t’y ipaia’ iareoy.
Then Pilate decreed that their petition should be granted.
25 Le vinotso’e i rinohy ty amy fiòla naho vono’ ondaty pinai’ iereoy; vaho natolo’e ami’ty satri’ iareo t’Iesoà.
Then released he to them him who for sedition and murder had been cast into prison; but he gave up Jesus to their will.
26 Ie nindese’iereo, le tsinepa’ iereo ty atao Simona nte Kirenia, ie niloneake hirik’ am-patrambey añe vaho nampitarazoeñe aze i hatae ajaley, le nañorike t’Iesoà.
And as they led him out, laying hold on one Simon, a Cyrenian, who was coming from the country, they laid on him the cross, to carry after Jesus.
27 Tsifotofoto t’indaty nañorike naho o roakemba nandala naho nirovetse azeo.
And a great multitude of the people and of women followed him, who also beat their breasts and lamented him bitterly.
28 Nitolik’ am’ iereo t’Iesoà nanao ty hoe: Ry anak’ ampela’ Ierosaleme ko mirovetse ahy fa roveto o vata’ areoo naho o ana’areoo.
But Jesus turning to them, said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but for yourselves, and for your children.
29 Mahaoniña te ho tendreke ty andro hanoeñe ty hoe: Haha ty beitsiterake naho ty hòviñe tsy nahatoly vaho ty fatroa tsy ninonoeñe.
For, behold, the days are coming, in which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs which have not borne, and the breasts which never suckled.
30 Ie amy zay, hanoe’ iereo ty hoe o vohitseo: Mihotraha ama’ay, naho amo haboañeo ty hoe: Rongono zahay.
Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us! and to the hills, Cover us!
31 Aa naho zao ty anoañe an-katae leñe, hanoeñe akore t’ie maike?
For if they do all these things with the green wood, what will be done with the dry?
32 Teo ka ty tsy vokatse roe nendeseñe hiharo vonoeñe ama’e.
Now there were two other persons, malefactors, led out with him to be executed.
33 Ie niavy ami’ty toetse atao Ikarandoha eo, le teo ty nipehañe aze naho indaty raty rey, ty raike am-pità’e havana naho ty raike an-kavia’e.
And when they came to a place called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, the one on the right hand, and the other on the left.
34 Le hoe t’Iesoà: O Aba, iheveo, fa amoea’ iareo o anoe’ iereoo. Nifanjara’ iereo ty saro’e vaho nanao tsato-piso.
And Jesus said, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. Then dividing his garments, they cast the lot.
35 Fonga nijohañe ey i màroy nisamba; nitrao-panìtse aze, ie naho o roandriañeo ami’ty hoe: Ie naharombake o ila’eo, soa re te handrombake ty vata’e naho toe ie i Norizañe jinobon’ Añaharey.
And the people stood looking on. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if this fellow is the Messiah, the elect of God.
36 Nanitra aze ka o lahin-defoñeo, le nimb’eo ty nanolotse divay maseñe ama’e,
And the soldiers also insulted him, coming and offering him vinegar,
37 ami’ty hoe: Naho toe Mpanjaka’ o Jiosio irehe, rombaho ty vata’o.
and saying, if thou art the King of the Jews, save thyself.
38 Pinatetse ambone eo ty sokitse manao ty hoe: Itoy ty Mpanjaka’ o Jiosio.
And there was an inscription written over him in Greek, Roman, and Hebrew characters, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
39 Nikobìk’ aze ty raik’ amy tsivokatse naradorado rey, ami’ty hoe: Naho ihe i Norizañey, rombaho ty vata’o naho izahay.
Then one of the suspended malefactors blasphemed him, saying, If thou art the Messiah, save thyself and us.
40 Fe tinoi’ i raikey an-trevoke, ami’ty hoe: Ndra i Andrianañahare hao tsy añeveña’o kanao itraofa’o fàtse?
But the other addressing him, rebuked him, saying, Hast thou no fear of God, when thou art under the same condemnation?
41 Toe mañeva i an-tikañey le rinamben-tika ty vale’ o satan-tikañeo; fe tsy nandilatse ondatio.
And we indeed justly, for we receive deserved punishment for the crimes we have committed: but this man hath done nothing amiss.
42 Le hoe re am’ Iesoà, O Rañandria, mahatiahia ahy te miheo am-pifehea’o ao,
And he said to Jesus, Remember me, Lord, when thou comest in thy kingdom.
43 Hoe t’Iesoà tama’e: Eka! to t’itaroñako te, hindre mb’an-tanen-kaveloñ’ ao tika te anito.
And Jesus said to him. Verily I say unto thee, To-day thou shalt be with me in paradise.
44 I ora faheneñey henane zay, le hene nihohofa’ ty ieñe i Taney sikal’ ami’ ty ora faha-sive.
And it was about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.
45 Nimoromoroñe i àndroy vaho nitori-anjake i lamba fañefetse añ’ Anjomban’ Añaharey.
And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.
46 Le nikanjy am-piarañanañañe mafe t’Iesoà ami’ty hoe: O Aba, apoko am-pità’o ao ty troko, ie nitsara, le nafoe’e ty arofo’e.
And Jesus crying with a loud voice, said, Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit: and having said this, he expired.
47 Nioni’ i mpifele-jatoy o raha nanjò eio le nandrenge an’ Andrianañahare ami’ty hoe: Toe ondaty vantañe toy.
And the centurion observing what had come to pass, glorified God, saying, Verily this man was a righteous person.
48 Ie nahaisake zay i maro nivorigidiñe eiy nisamba o raha nitendrekeo, le nifiotse añe namango arañañe.
And all the multitudes who had come together for this spectacle, when they saw the things which were done, beating their breasts, returned.
49 Hene nijohanjohañe eñe o rañe’eo naho o roakemba nanonjohy aze boake Galilia añeo nitalake.
And all his acquaintance stood afar off, and the women which followed him from Galilee, beholding these things.
50 Teo t’indaty atao Iosefe, mpiamy Sanhedrio, ondaty vantañe naho vañoñe;
And lo! a man named Joseph, being a member of the council, a good man, and a just;
51 tsy ninò’ indatiy ty safiry naho ty raha nanoe’ iareo. Nte-Armatia tanà’ Iehodà re vaho mpitamà i Fifehean’ Añaharey.
(who had not given his assent to their determination and deed; ) being of Arimathea, a city of the Jews: who himself also expected the coming of the kingdom of God.
52 Nimb’amy Pilato mb’eo re nihalaly ty fañòva’ Iesoà.
He went in to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.
53 Ie nazotso’e, le pinelepele’e an-damba leny, vaho nirohote’e an-donake hinaly an-damilamy mbe tsy nandrohotan-dolo.
And taking it down from the cross, he wrapped it in linen cloth, and laid it in a sepulchre hewn out of a rock, where none had ever yet lain.
54 Ie ty andro Fañalankañañe, le fa ho tondroke i Sabatay.
And that was the preparation-day, and the sabbath’s twilight was approaching.
55 Norihe’ o roakemba nanonjohy Iesoà boak’ e Galilia añeo re le niisa’ iereo i lonakey naho ty nandrohotañe i fañòvay.
Then the women also, his attendants, who had followed him out of Galilee, observed the sepulchre, and how his corpse was laid out.
56 Tafampoly iereo le nañalankañe raha mandrifondrifoñe naho solike, vaho nitofa amy Sabatay ty amy liliy.
And returning, they made preparation of aromatics and unguents; and they rested the sabbath-day, according to the commandment.
