Matio 27
1 Ie maraindray, le nikilie’ o Androanavy bey naho roandriañe iabio t’i Iesoà, t’ie tsy mahay tsy havetrake.
When morning came all the High Priests and the Elders of the people consulted together against Jesus to put Him to death;
2 Rinohi’ iareo naho nitantalieñe mb’ añ’anjomba’ i Pilato mpanandily mb’eo;
and binding Him they led Him away and handed Him over to Pilate the Governor.
3 Ie nirendre’ i Jodasy nte-Keriotey, te nozoñeñe t’i Iesoà, le naneñeñe, vaho nahere’e amy mpisorom-beiy naho amo roandria’ ondatio i bogady telo-polo rey.
Then when Judas, who had betrayed Him, saw that He was condemned, smitten with remorse he brought back the thirty shekels to the High Priests and Elders
4 Hoe re: Nanao hakeo iraho, fa nitomaly aman-dio-màliñe, fe hoe ty natoi’ iereo: Inoñe ama’ay v’izay? tafetero!
and said, "I have sinned, in betraying to death one who is innocent." "What does that matter to us?" they replied; it is your business."
5 Aa le nahifi’e amy anjomba miavakey ao i bogady rey, naho nienga, nangalake taly vaho nameo-batañe.
Flinging the shekels into the Sanctuary he left the place, and went and hanged himself.
6 Rinambe’ o mpisorom-beio i bogady rey, le hoe ty asa’ iareo: Faly tsy mete apoke amy anjomba miavake ao iretoy, fa vilin-dio.
When the High Priests had gathered up the money they said, "It is illegal to put it into the Treasury, because it is the price of blood."
7 Le nisafiry vaho natolo’ iereo ho ami’ty tete’ i mpanao valàñe-taney ho fandeveñañe ambahiny.
So after consulting together they spent the money in the purchase of the Potter's Field as a burial place for people not belonging to the city;
8 Izay ty nanoañ’ i tetekey ty hoe kibohon-dio ampara’ henane;
for which reason that piece of ground received the name, which it still bears, of 'the Field of Blood.'
9 nañeneke ty saontsi’ i Zakaria mpitoky nanao ty hoe: Le hoe iraho am’iereo: Naho soa am-pivazohoa’areo, ampitombò ty karamako, fe naho tsy mete, ifoneño. Aa le linanja’ iereo ho amy karamakoy ty drala volafoty telo polo. Le hoe t’Iehovà amako: Ahifio mb’amy mpanao valàñe-taney izay; mb’ am’ indaty mandramerame lietsey.
Then were fulfilled the words spoken by the Prophet Jeremiah, "And I took the thirty shekels, the price of the prized one on whom Israelites had set a price,
10 ty amy nandilia’ Iehovà.
and gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord directed me."
11 Nijohañe añatrefa’ i Pilato eo t’i Iesoà, le hoe re tama’e: Ihe hao ty Mpanjaka’o Jiosio? Hoe t’i Iesoà: Saontsi’o izay.
Meanwhile Jesus was brought before the Governor, and the latter put the question, "Are you the King of the Jews?" "I am their King," He answered.
12 Aa ndra te nitomboke Iesoà an-tseseke o mpisorom-beio naho o roandriañeo, tsy nanoin-dre.
When however the High Priests and the Elders kept bringing their charges against Him, He said not a word in reply.
13 Hoe t’i Pilato tama’e: Tsy oni’o hao ty hamaron-tsisý sesehe’ iereo ama’o?
"Do you not hear," asked Pilate, "what a mass of evidence they are bringing against you?"
14 F’ie tsy nanoiñe aze ndra saontsy raike, vata’e nahadaba i ragovay.
But He made no reply to a single accusation, so that the Governor was greatly astonished.
15 Ie amy Sabadidake aman-kasiñe atao Fihelañ’ Amboney, fanoe’ i Mpandili’ i Rovaiy ty hañahàñe amy màroy ty raike amo mpirohio, ze tea’ iereo.
"Now it was the Governor's custom at the Festival to release some one prisoner, whomsoever the populace desired;
16 Nanam-pirohy seretseretse t’i Pilato, i Barabasy ty añara’e, rinohy ty ami’ty vono-ondaty, vaho najo’e am-balabey ao.
and at this time they had a notorious prisoner called Barabbas.
17 Ie nifanontoñe iereo, le nanoa’ i Pilato ty hoe: Ia ty tea’ areo ho hahàñe? i Barabasy, ke Iesoà atao Norizañey?
So when they were now assembled Pilate appealed to them. "Whom shall I release to you," he said, "Barabbas, or Jesus the so-called Christ?"
18 tali’e, nifohi’ i Pilato te am-palaiñañe tsy aman-tali’e ty naneseha’ iareo aze, tovo’e,
For he knew that it was from envious hatred that Jesus had been brought before him.
19 ie niambesatse am-piambesam-pizakàñe eo, le nañitrike entañe ama’e ty vali’e nanao ty hoe: Mihalaly ama’o: Ko mivolan-dra inoñ’ inoñe hatreatre’o indaty vañoñey, amy te niore raha maro iraho ty ama’e ama’ nofy aniankale.
While he was sitting on the tribunal a message came to him from his wife. "Have nothing to do with that innocent man," she said, "for during the night I have suffered terribly in a dream through him."
20 Navori’ o mpisorom-beio naho o Androanavio ondatio hijoboñe i Barabasy, vaho havetrake t’i Iesoà.
The High Priests, however, and the Elders urged the crowd to ask for Barabbas and to demand the death of Jesus.
21 Aa hoe ty ontane’ i Pilato: Ia amy roe rey ty tea’ areo ho hahàko ama’ areo? Hoe iereo: i Barabasy.
So when the Governor a second time asked them, "Which of the two shall I release to you?" --they cried, "Barabbas!"
22 Hoe t’i Pilato tam’ iereo: Aa naho izay, hataoko akore t’Iesoà atao Norizañe? Nirihoñe’ iereo iaby t’ie haradorado.
"What then," said Pilate, "shall I do with Jesus, the so-called Christ?" With one voice they shouted, "Let him be crucified!"
23 Hoe t’i Pilato am’ iereo: Ino ty sata-raty nanoe’e? Le tinazataza’ iereo ty hoe: Aradoradò, Aradoradò, Aradoradò!
"Why, what crime has he committed?" asked Pilate. But they kept on furiously shouting, "Let him be crucified!"
24 Ie, nioni’ i Pilato te tsy amam-dily handiera’e, naho tsy ama’e ty hampanintsiñe iareo, aolo te hirehetse ty firehoreho ondatio, le nandrambe rano vaho nanasa fitàñe añatrefa’ i màroy, nanao ty hoe: votsotse ami’ty lio iraho, mitaoa amy ze hanòe’areo.
So when he saw that he could gain nothing, but that on the contrary there was a riot threatening, he called for water and washed his hands in sight of them all, saying, "I am not responsible for this murder: you must answer for it."
25 Tinoi’ ondaty iabio ty hoe: Ho ama’ay naho amo ana’aio ty lio’e.
"His blood," replied all the people, "be on us and on our children!"
26 Le hinaha’e t’i Barabasy; vaho nasese’e am’ iereo t’i Iesoà ho fiaheñe naho silofeñe haradoradoa’ iareo.
Then he released Barabbas to them, but Jesus he ordered to be scourged, and gave Him up to be crucified.
27 Le nendese’ o mpiningin-tsoavalam-pizakañeo an-drohy t’i Iesoà vaho natonto’ iareo aolo’ ty fañosoña’ ondaty maro eo.
Then the Governor's soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium, and called together the whole battalion to make sport of Him.
28 Nasaro ama’e ty lamba landy naho nikopohañe tsarimbo landy antsetra.
Stripping off His garments, they put on Him a general's short crimson cloak.
29 Nirarèñe halam-patike, le nasabaka’ iareo añambone’e, le nasiam-bararata ty am-pità’e havana ao, vaho nitongaleke ama’e nikobìke ty hoe: Fañanintsiñe ama’o ry Mpanjaka’ o Jiosio!
They twisted a wreath of thorny twigs and put it on His head, and they put a sceptre of cane in His right hand, and kneeling to Him they shouted in mockery, "Long live the King of the Jews!"
30 Nandrorà’ iereo ty lahara’e, naho nandrambe bararata le namiafiake ty añambone’e.
Then they spat upon Him, and taking the cane they repeatedly struck Him on the head with it.
31 Ie nilosoran-kizake, le nafaha’ iereo i saroñe mireparepay naho naombe ama’e o siki’eo vaho nandily t’ie haradorado.
At last, having finished their sport, they took off the cloak, clothed Him again in His own garments, and led Him away for crucifixion.
32 Ie niakatse i rovay, le nitendreke ty ondaty atao Simona nte-Kanana vaho nampitarazoeñ’ aze i hatae ajale’ey.
Going out they met a Cyrenaean named Simon; whom they compelled to carry His cross,
33 Aa ie nandoake an-toetse atao Golgota, toe Vohe-Kalvary
and so they came to a place called Golgotha, which means 'Skull-ground.'
34 le finantso’ iereo divay nalaro afero, f’ie nitsopeke, naho naharendreke, le tsy nimete ninoñe.
Here they gave Him a mixture of wine and gall to drink, but having tasted it He refused to drink it.
35 Pinè’ iereo an-katae re le zinara an-tsapake o saro’eo,
After crucifying Him, they divided His garments among them by lot,
and sat down there on guard.
37 le napetake ambone’ i añambone’ey ty nanesehañe aze, ami’ty hoe: Intoy Iesoà nte-Nazareta, Mpanjaka’ Israele.
Over His head they placed a written statement of the charge against Him: THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 Le nampindrezam-piradorado ama’e: ty malaso roe, ty raike ankavana’e vaho ty raike ankavia’e eo.
At the same time two robbers were crucified with Him, one at His right hand and the other at His left.
39 Nanìtse aze ze niary eo naho nañekotsèko-doha
And the passers-by reviled Him. They shook their heads at Him
40 nanao ty hoe: Inao! Ihe ho nandrotsake i anjomban’ Añaharey naho hamboatse aze ami’ty telo andro, mirombaha! Naho Anan’ Añahare irehe, mizotsoa amo hataeo.
and said, "You who would pull down the Sanctuary and build a new one within three days, save yourself. If you are God's Son, come down from the cross."
41 Nikizak’ aze ka o mpisorom-beio naho o roandria’ ondatio, ami’ty hoe:
In like manner the High Priests also, together with the Scribes and the Elders, taunted Him.
42 Ie nandrombake ty ila’e, fe tsy maharombake ty vata’e. Naho ie i Mpanjaka’ Israeley, apoho hizotso amo hataeo hatokisa’ay.
"He saved others," they said, "himself he cannot save! He is the King of Israel! Let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe in him.
43 Iatoa’e t’i Andrianañahare, adono ho hahan’ Añahare henaneo naho tea’e amy nanoe’e ty hoe t’ie Anan’ Añahare.
His trust is in God: let God deliver him now, if He will have him; for he said, 'I am God's Son.'"
44 Nanitse aze hoe izay ka i malaso nitrao-peke ama’e rey.
Insults of the same kind were heaped on Him even by the robbers who were being crucified with Him.
45 Ie ami’ty ora fah’eneñe fonga nimaieñe i Taney pak’ ami’ ty ora faha-sive.
Now from noon until three o'clock in the afternoon there was darkness over the whole land;
46 Le nipazake ty hoe t’i Iesoà: Eli, Eli, lama sabaktany, ze adika ty hoe: O Andrianañahareko, Andrianañahareko, ino ty namorintseña’o ahy?
but about three o'clock Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" that is to say, "My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken me?"
47 Hoe ty raike nijohañe eo: Mitoka i Elia toke.
"The man is calling for Elijah," said some of the bystanders.
48 Aa le nilay mb’eo amy zao ty nangalake mofo mangefokefoke, naho natsafe’e vinegra vaho natoho’e ama’e ho sitsihe’e.
One of them ran forthwith, and filling a sponge with sour wine put it on the end of a cane and offered it Him to drink;
49 Hoe ka ty ila’e, Eo hey, hentean-tika ke ho avy handrombake aze t’i Elia.
while the rest said, "Let us see whether Elijah is coming to deliver him."
50 Nipazake indraike am-piarañanañañe mafe t’i Iesoà, vaho nengae’e aman-dRae ty arofo’e.
But Jesus uttered another loud cry and then yielded up His spirit.
51 Le inao! nitori-anjake ho roe boak’ ambone mañambane i lamba fièfen’ Anjomban’ Añaharey. Niozoñozoñe ty tane, naho nifoy o vatoo;
Immediately the curtain of the Sanctuary was torn in two from top to bottom: the earth quaked; the rocks split;
52 Nisokake o kiborio; vaho nitroatse ty fañova maro’ o noro’e nirotse an-debokeo;
the tombs opened; and many of God's people who were asleep in death awoke.
53 ie niakatse an-kibory naho nimb’ amy rova miavakey vaho niboake ami’ty maro.
And coming out of their tombs after Christ's resurrection they entered the holy city and showed themselves to many.
54 Ie nioni’ ty mpifehe zato naho o nitrao-pijohañe ama’e nisary Iesoào i ozoñozon-taney naho o raha nanoeñeo, le nañeveñe naho nanao ty hoe: Toe Anan’ Añahare o eio.
As for the Captain and the soldiers who were with Him keeping guard over Jesus, when they witnessed the earthquake and the other occurrences they were filled with terror, and exclaimed, "Assuredly he was God's Son."
55 Nizorazora ey ty roakemba maro amo niatrake Iesoà hirik’ e Galilia pake henane zay.
And there were a number of women there looking on from a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee ministering to His necessities;
56 Am’ iereo t’i Miriame nte-Magdalà, i Marie rene’ Iakobe naho i Josesy, vaho ty rene’ i ana’ i Zebedia rey.
among them being Mary of Magdala, Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zabdi.
57 Ie ho niròñe i àndroy, pok’eo ty mpañarivo nte Arimatea, Iosefe ty tahina’e, mpioke am’ Iesoà,
Towards sunset there came a wealthy inhabitant of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who himself also had become a disciple of Jesus.
58 nimb’ amy Pilato mb’eo nihalaly ty fañòva’ Iesoà, le linili’ i Pilato te hatolotse aze.
He went to Pilate and begged to have the body of Jesus, and Pilate ordered it to be given to him.
59 Nitakone’ Iosefe i fañòvay, le niholonkoñe’e an-damba-lande marerarera matify, naho
So Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean sheet of fine linen.
60 nirohote’e an-dona’e vao ao, ie vaho hinali’e an-damilamy, le navarimariña’e mb’am-piziliha’ i lonakey ty vato jabajaba.
He then laid it in his own new tomb which he had hewn in the solid rock, and after rolling a great stone against the door of the tomb he went home.
Mary of Magdala and the other Mary were both present there, sitting opposite to the sepulchre.
62 Amy loak’ àndro i Fihelañ’ Amboney, le nimb’amy Pilato mb’eo o mpisorom-beio naho o Fariseoo.
On the next day, the day after the Preparation, the High Priests and the Pharisees came in a body to Pilate.
63 Le hoe iereo tama’e: O Roandriañeo, tiahi’ay te ie mbe niveloñe i mpandañitsey le nanoe’e ty hoe t’ie hivañon-ko veloñe naho afake telo andro.
"Sir," they said, "we recollect that during his lifetime that impostor pretended that after two days he was to rise to life again.
64 Aa le andilio te ho gariteñe pak’ami’ty andro faha telo i kiboriy, kera ho pok’eo o mpiama’eo hañaoke aze, vaho hitalily am’ondatio t’ie nivañon-ko veloñe. Ie anoe’ iereo, le ho lombolombo’ i valoha’ey ty famañahiañe fara’e.
So give orders for the sepulchre to be securely guarded till the third day, for fear his disciples should come by night and steal the body, and then tell the people that he has come back to life; and so the last imposture will be more serious than the first."
65 Hoe t’i Pilato am’iereo: Ipaiao mpigaritse, le ambeno amy ze lefe’ areo.
"You can have a guard," said Pilate: "go and make all safe, as best you can."
66 Aa le nifonire’ iereo ty fañarovañe i lonakey, namoli-tomboke aze vaho nampijadoñe mpañambeñe.
So they went and made the sepulchre secure, sealing the stone besides setting the guard.
