Luka 23
1 Bhai likundi lyowe, gubhajimingene, nikwaapeleka a Yeshu kwa a Pilato.
And all the multitude of them rising up, lead Him to Pilate.
2 Gubhatandubhenje kwaashitakiya bhalinkutinji, “Bhene bhandubha bhatendaga kwaapuganyanga bhandunji bhetu, bhalikwalimbiyanga kulipa koli kwa a Kaishali na bhalikwiishema a Kilishitu na a mpalume.”
And they began to accuse Him, saying, We found Him perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying that He is Christ, a King.
3 A Pilato gubhaabhushiye a Yeshu, “Mmwe a mpalume bha Bhayaudi?” A Yeshu gubhaajangwile “Mmwe ni nkubheleketa.”
And Pilate asked Him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And responding to him, He said, Thou sayest it.
4 A Pilato gubhaabhalanjilenje ashikalongolele bha bhaabhishila na lugwinjili lwa bhandu, “Ngakushibhona shibhalebhile abha bhandubha.”
And Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, I find nothing criminal in this man.
5 Ikabheje na bhalabhonji gubhapundilenje kukwiya bhalinkutinji, “Bhanakwiya nnjasha kwa majiganyo gabho nshilambo showe sha ku Yudea, kundubhila ku Galilaya, mpaka apano.”
And they became stronger and stronger, saying, He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee unto this place.
6 A Pilato bhakapilikaneje genego gubhabhushiye, “Bhuli, abha bhandubha bha ku Galilaya?”
And Pilate hearing, asked if He is a Galilean man.
7 Bhakamumanyeje kuti a Yeshu bhaliji mu Ukulungwa gwa a Elode, gubhaapeleshe kwa a Elode, pabha gene mobhago pubhaliji pa Yelushalemu pepala.
And learning that He is from the jurisdiction of Herod, he sent Him up to Herod, being himself in Jerusalem in those days.
8 A Elode guyaanonyele bhakaabhoneje a Yeshu. Pabha bhapilikene ngani jabho, kwa nneyo kwa mobha gamagwinji bhatendaga loleya kwaabhona. Na kabhili bhatendaga pinga bhaabhone bhalitenda ilangulo.
And Herod seeing Jesus, rejoiced exceedingly: for from a long time, wishing to see Him, because He was hearing about Him; and he was hoping to see some miracle wrought by Him.
9 Bhai, a Elode gubhakabhile nkwabhuya, ikabheje a Yeshu bhangaajangula shoshowe.
And he asked Him with many words; and He responded to him nothing.
10 Ashikalongolele bha bhaabhishila na bhaajandika bha shalia, gubhajimingene nkukong'ondela mashitaka gabhonji kwa kakati.
But the high priest and scribes stood by, accusing Him vehemently.
11 Bhai, a Elode na ashimanjola bhabho, gubhaalembulenje a Yeshu nikwatendela mbenji, kungai gubhaawashiyenje lijoo lya Upalume, gubhabhujilenabhonji kwa a Pilato.
But Herod along with his soldiers having indeed treated Him with contempt, and mocked Him, putting on Him a scarlet robe, sent Him back to Pilate.
12 A Elode na a Pilato bhukala pubhalinginji bhamagongo, kutandubhila lyene lyubhalyo gubhalinginji bhambwiga.
And both Herod and Pilate on that day became friends with one another: for they were hitherto in enmity either to other.
13 Bhai, a Pilato gubhashemile shitamo sha ashikalongolele bha bhaabhishila na ashikalongolele bhana bha bhandunji,
Pilate having called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
14 gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Nshimbeleshelanga abha bhandubha kuti, bhanaapuganya bhandu. Ngakagulileje lyene lilobheli pameyo genunji, nangashibhona shibhalebhile shilingana na mashitaka genunji.
said to them, You have brought to me this man, as revolutionizing the people: and behold, I, judging Him before you, found nothing in this man criminal of those things which you accuse against Him.
15 Numbe nngabha nne jikape, ikabhe nkali a Elode bhangashibhona shoshowe shibhalebhile, nigubhamujishiye. Pabha abha bhandubha shakwapi shibhatendile shapinjikwa bhaukumulwe kubhulagwa.
But Herod did not: for he sent Him back to us; and behold, nothing worthy of death has been done by Him.
16 Kwa nneyo shinajile bhakomwe ibhoko, kungai shinaaleshelele.”
Therefore having scourged Him, I will release Him.
17 Pabha bhashinkupinjikwa kwaagopolelanga nkutabhwa jumo lyubha lya shikukuu.
18 Ikabheje bhowe gwaajobhelenje gwanakamo, “Mwaabhulaje abho, ntugopolele a Bhalabha!”
And they unanimously cried out, saying, Take Him away, and release unto us Barabbas:
19 A Bhalabha bhashinkutabhwa kwa ligongo lya nnjasha yatendeshe pa shilambo na ligongo lya bhulaga bhandu.
who had been cast into prison on account of certain sedition made in the city, and murder.
20 A Pilato bhapinjile kwaaleshelela a Yeshu, bhai gubhakungulwishe kabhili na bhandunji,
Then Pilate again called to them, wishing to release Jesus.
21 ikabheje bhalabhonji gubhapundilenje jobhela, “Mwaakomele munshalabha, mwaakomele munshalabha!”
And they continued to shout aloud, saying, Crucify Him, crucify Him.
22 A Pilato gubhaabhalanjilenje gwatatu, “Bhalebhile nndi? Ngakushibhona shoshowe shibhalebhile shapinjikwa bhabhulagwe, kwa nneyo shindume bhakomwe ibhoko, naaleshelele.”
And he spoke to them the third time, For what evil hath He done? I found nothing in Him worthy of death: therefore having scourged Him, I will release Him.
23 Ikabheje bhalabhonji gubhapundilenje kujobhela, kuti a Yeshu bhanapinjikwa bhakomelwe munshalabha. Kungai, malobhe gabhonji gugapilikanishe.
And they continued to lay on with great voices, demanding that He should be crucified: and the voices of them and the high priests continued to grow stronger.
24 Bhai a Pilato gubhaukumwile kuti, itendeshe malinga shibhapinjilenje.
And Pilate decided that their request should be granted.
25 Gubhaaleshelele a Bhalabha bhatabhilwe kwa ligongo lya nnjasha na bhulaga bhandu. Gubhaakamwiye a Yeshu kwa ashimanjola, bhaatendelanje malinga shibhapingangaga.
And released him who on account of sedition and murder had been cast into prison, and delivered up Jesus according to their wish.
26 Bhalinginji nkwaapeleka, gubhaimikenenje naka mundu jumo ashemwaga Shimoni jwa ku Kilene, alikopoka kunngunda. Bhai, gubhankamwilenje, gubhantwishilenje nshalabha gula aujigale nnyuma ja a Yeshu.
And when they were leading Him away, taking a certain Simon, a Cyrenean, coming from the country, they placed the cross on him, to carry it after Jesus.
27 Bhandunji, makundi kwa makundi gubhaakagulenje, munkumbimo bhapalinji bhanabhakongwe bhaagutilangaga ililo.
And a great multitude of people followed Him, and of women who were both weeping and bewailing Him.
28 A Yeshu gubhaatendebhushilenje, gubhashite, “Mmanganya ashinabhiti bha pa Yelushalemu! Nnang'utilanje nne, ikabhe mwiigutilanje mwaashayene na ashibhana bhenu.
And Jesus turning to them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and your children.
29 Pabha, shigaishe mobha pushimmeleketanje, mbaya ashinannii na bhakanabhe kolanga wala kujonjeya!
Because behold, the days are coming, in which they will say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that did not bring forth, and the breasts that did not nurse.
30 Penepo, bhandunji shibhailugululanje itumbi, ‘Ntugwilanje!’ Na ijomboya, ‘Ntuunishilanje’!
Then they will begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Hide us.
31 Ibhaga bhandunji bhakuutendelanga nnei nkongo gwa mmii, shiibhe bhuli kwa nkongo gwa nnjumu?”
Because if they do these things in the green tree, what may be done in the dry?
32 Bhandunji bhana bhabhili bhaalebhanga, bhashinkupelekwanga bhabhulagwanje pamo na a Yeshu.
And two malefactors were also led away with Him, to be executed.
33 Bhakaikanganeje pashemwaga, Shibhanga sha Ntwe, penepo gubhaakomelenje munshalabha a Yeshu na bhandunji bhabhili bhaalebhanga bhala, jumo kunkono nnilo, na juna kunkono nshinda.
And when they came to the place called Calvary. There they crucified Him, and the malefactors, one on the right and one on the left.
34 A Yeshu gubhashite, “Atati mwaaleshelelanje, pabha bhakakwimanyanga ibhatendanga.” Gubhagebhenenje nngubho yabho kwa tendela shikoma.
And Jesus said, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they are doing. And dividing His garments, they were casting the lots.
35 Bhandunji gubhajimingene bhalilosheyanga. Na bhalabhonji ashikalongolele bha Shiyaudi gubhaatendelenje mbenji bhalinkutinji, “Bhashikwatapulanga bhananji, nnaino bhaitapule bhayene, monaga bhenebha bhali a Kilishitu bha a Nnungu!”
The people stood looking: and the rulers were even mocking with themselves, saying, He saved others; let Him save Himself, if He is the Christ, the elect of God.
36 Ashimanjola nneyo peyo gubhaatendelenje mbenji a Yeshu, gubhaajendelenje nikwaapa divai ja shashama bhapapile,
And the soldiers were also mocking, coming and bringing the vinegar to Him,
37 bhalinkutinji, “Monaga mmwe nni A mpalume bha Bhayaudi, mwiitapule mmayene.”
and saying, If thou art the King of the Jews, save thyself.
38 Na pantundu nshalabha gwabho pashinkujandikwa mmbila “BHENEBHA A MPALUME BHA BHAYAUDI.”
And the superscription was also over Him: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
39 Na nkulebha jumo akomelwe munshalabha jula, gwabhatukene alinkuti, “Bhuli, igala mmwe nngati a Kilishitu? Bhai mwiitapule mmayene, ntutapule na uwe.”
And one of the malefactors having been hung up, continued to blaspheme Him, saying, If thou art the Christ, save thyself and us.
40 Ikabheje nkulebha juna jula gwankalipile mwine alinkuti, “Ugwe ukakwaajogopa a Nnungu? Numbe uli na ukumu jojo.
But the other one responding, rebuked him saying, Do you not fear God, because you are in the same condemnation?
41 Uwe tushiukumulwa kwa aki, kwa itendi yetu. Ikabheje abha bhandubha shakwapi shoshowe shibhalebhile.”
and we indeed justly; for we are receiving the deservings of the things we did: but this one has done nothing amiss.
42 Kungai nigwashite, “Mmwe a Yeshu! Nngumbushile pushinnjinjile mu Upalume gwenupo.”
And he said to Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou mayest come in thy kingdom.
43 A Yeshu gubhannjangwile, “Kweli ngunakuubhalanjila, lelope shuubhe na nne kupaladisho.”
And Jesus said to him, Truly I say unto thee, This day shalt thou be with me in Paradise.
44 Puyaaliji malanga ga shaa shita ja mui, lubhindu lukutabhaga shilambo showe mpaka shaa tisha,
And it was about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.
45 na lukulungushi lwa Nniekalu lukupapukaga ipande ibhili.
And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the middle.
46 A Yeshu gubhagutile kwa utiya, “Atati, mmakono genu ngunabhika mbumu yangu.” Bhakamaliyeje kubheleketa genego gubhamalile.
And calling with a loud voice, Jesus said, Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit. And having said this, He expired.
47 Penepo, bhakulungwa bha ashimanjola bhala bhakagabhoneje gatendeshe gala, gubhaaniye a Nnungu bhalinkuti, “Kweli abha bhandubha pubhaliji bha aki.”
And the centurion seeing that which took place, glorified God, saying, Surely this was a righteous man.
48 Bhandu bhowe bhaikengene pepala kulolesheya genego, bhakagabhonanjeje gene gatendeshe gala, gubhabhujilengene kunngwabhonji, bhalikwikomanga pantima nkuinjika.
And all the multitudes being present at that scene, seeing those things which took place, were going away beating their breasts.
49 Ashambwiga ajabho a Yeshu, na bhanabhakongwe bhakagulangaga kukopoka ku Galilaya, gubhajimingene kwa talika bhalilolesheyanga genego.
And all His acquaintances stood a great way off and the women who having followed along with Him from Galilee, seeing these things.
50 Bhai bhashinkupagwa bhandu bhamo lina lyabho a Yoshepu, bhaliji bhanguja na bha aki. Pubhaliji bha lukumbi lukulu lwa Bhayaudi,
And behold, there was a man by name Joseph, being a councilor, a good and righteous man,
51 ikabheje bhenebho bhanganonyelwa na ukumu na itendi ya ashikalongolele ajabho. Bhenebha pubhaliji bhashilambo bha ku Alimataya shilambo sha Bhayaudi. Na bhatendaga lindilila kuika kwa Upalume gwa a Nnungu kwa nnolelo nkulu.
(for he was not consenting unto their counsel and deed), from Arimathea, a city of the Jews, who also himself was looking for the kingdom of God.
52 A Yoshepu gubhaajendele a Pilato, gubhajujile bhapegwe shiilu sha a Yeshu.
He having come to Pilate, begged the body of Jesus.
53 Kungai gubhatulwiye shiilu munshalabha, gubhailijilile shanda ja kitani ja mmbone, gubhabhishile nnikabhuli lyaolilwe nnindandawe likulungwa, lyaliji likanabhe shikwa mundu.
And having taken it down, he wrapped it in linen, and placed it in a hewn sepulcher, where no one ever was laid.
54 Pulyaaliji lyubha lya kolokoya indu ya Lyubha lya Pumulila, na pulyaaliji tome na tandubha.
And it was Preparation day, and the Sabbath was drawing nigh.
55 Bhanabhakongwe bhajilengene pamo na a Yeshu kukopoka ku Galilaya, gubhaakagwilenje a Yoshepu, gubhaliweninji likabhuli na shibhashite kwaashika a Yeshu.
And the women, who had come along with him out of Galilee, having followed down, saw the sepulcher, and where His body was placed.
56 Kungai, gubhabhujengene kumui, gubhajenjilenje mauta ga nunjila ga kwenda pakaya shiilu sha a Yeshu. Lyubha lya Pumulila, gubhapumulilenje malinga shiyalajilwe na shalia.
And having returned, they prepared aromatics and myrrh: and they kept the Sabbath according to the commandment.
