Matei 26
1 A Yeshu bhakamaliyeje bheleketa gowego, gubhaabhalanjilenje bhaajiganywa bhabho,
And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these saying, he said to his disciples,
2 “Mmumanyinji gapitaga mobha gabhili shipinga pagwa shikukuu sha Pashaka na Mwana juka Mundu apinga tendebhukwa shaakomelwe munshalabha.”
Ye know that after two days the Passover comes, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.
3 Gene mobhago bhakulungwanji bhaabhishila na bhanangulungwa bha bhandunji gubhaimenenje pamo nnyumba ja a Kayapa, bhaaliji Bhakulungwa Bhabhishila.
Then the chief priests, and the scholars, and the elders of the people, assembled together to the courtyard of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,
4 Gubhabheleketenje shibhatendanje bhuli, nkupinga bhaakamulanje a Yeshu kwa unami bhaabhulaganje.
and they deliberated so that they might take Jesus by trickery, and kill him.
5 Ikabheje gubhashitenje lyenelyo linatendeshe mobha ga shikukuu, jinakoposhela nnjasha ku bhandu.
But they said, Not during the feast, lest an uproar develop among people.
6 A Yeshu pubhaliji ku Bhetania kunngwabho a Shimoni bhaakwete mangundula bhukala,
Now when Jesus happened to be in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
7 bhakongwe bhamo bhaakwete shupa sha alabhashita sha mauta ga nunjila ga mmbiya yaigwinji, gubhaaishile pubhaalyaga shalya pala, gubhaajitile mauta gala muntwe.
a woman came to him having an alabaster cruse of precious ointment, and she poured it upon his head as he sat relaxing.
8 Bhaajiganywa bhabho bhakabhonanjeje genego guyaashimilenje, gubhashitenje, “Kwa nndi jonanganya nnei?
But when his disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, Why this waste?
9 Pabha aga mautaga gakaushiwe kwa mmbiya yaigwinji na elayo nipegwa bhalaganga.”
For this ointment could have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
10 A Yeshu gubhaimanyi ng'aniyo yabhonji, gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Pakuti nnakwaabhuyanga bhakongwebha? Pabha bhenebha bhashindendela shindu sha mmbone.
But Jesus knowing it, he said to them, Why do ye cause troubles to the woman? For she has wrought a good work upon me.
11 Bhalaganga nni nabhonji mobha gowe, ikabheje nne ngabha na mmanganya mobha gowe.
For ye always have the poor with you, but ye do not always have me.
12 Abha bhakongwebha bhashinyitila mauta nkupinga mika tayali kwa mashiko gangu.
For by pouring this ointment upon my body, she did it for my burial.
13 Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, kila pushijilunguywe Ngani ja Mboneji pa shilambolyo, shene shibhatendile bhakongweshi, shipinga lunguywa nkwaakumbushila.”
Truly I say to you, wherever this good news may be proclaimed in the whole world, what this woman did will also be told for a memorial of her.
14 Kungai, a Yuda Ishikaliote, jumo munkumbi gwa likumi limo na bhabhili bhala, gubhaajendelenje bhakulungwanji bhaabhishila,
Then one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, having gone to the chief priests,
15 gubhashite, “Shimmbanganje nndi ninkamuyangaga a Yeshu?” Gubhaabhalanganishiyenje mmbiya makumi gatatu.
he said, What are ye willing to give me, and I will deliver him to you? And they weighed out to him thirty silver pieces.
16 Tandubhila penepo a Yuda bhatendaga loleya shanabhuli shibhaatendebhushe a Yeshu.
And from that time he sought a favorable opportunity so that he might betray him.
17 Lyubha lya tandubha shikukuu sha mikate jangatagwa ngedule, bhaajiganywa bhabho gubhaajendelenje a Yeshu nikwaabhuya, “Kwei kunkupinga tukakolokoye shalya sha Pashaka?”
Now on the first day of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where do thou want that we should prepare for thee to eat the Passover?
18 A Yeshu gubhaajangwilenje, “Nnjendangane kunjini kuka mundu jumo, nkammalanjilanje, Bhaajiganya bhashite, ‘Malanga gangu gubhang'agulile a Nnungu gabhandishile. Kunngwenu mbinga lila Pashaka na bhaajiganywa bhangu.’”
And he said, Go into the city to a certain man, and say to him, The teacher says, My time is near. I keep the Passover with my disciples with thee.
19 Bhaajiganywa gubhatendilenje malinga shibhalugulilwenje na a Yeshu, gubhakolokoyenje Pashaka.
And the disciples did as Jesus arranged for them, and they prepared the Passover.
20 Likaisheje ligulo, a Yeshu gubhatemi nkulya shalya na bhaajiganywa bhabho likumi limo na bhabhili bhala.
Now having become evening, he was sitting with the twelve.
21 Bhalinginji nkulya, a Yeshu gubhashite, “Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, jumo jwenunji apinga ndendebhuka.”
And as they were eating, he said, Truly I say to you, that one of you will betray me.
22 Bhaajiganywa gubhainjikenje kwa kaje, jumo jumo gubhatandubhenje kwaabhuya, “Mmakulungwa! Bhuli, nne?”
And being exceedingly sorrowful, they began, each of them, to say to him, Is it I, Lord?
23 A Yeshu gubhajangwile, “Shapambe pamo na nne mmakuli ni apinga ndendebhuka.
And having answered, he said, He who dipped his hand with me in the dish, this man will betray me.
24 Mwana juka Mundu anakwenda malinga Majandiko shigaataya, ikabheje ole gwakwe apinga kuntendebhuka Mwana juka Mundu! Mbaya jwene mundujo akanabhelekwe.”
The Son of man indeed goes as it is written about him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of man is betrayed! It were good for him if that man had not been born.
25 A Yuda bhapinjile kwaatendebhuka, gubhaabhushiye, “Mmajiganya! Bhuli, nne?” A Yeshu gubhaajangwile, “Mmwe mmelekete.”
And Judas (the man who betrayed him) having answered, he said, Is it I, Rabbi? He says to him, Thou have said.
26 Bhalinginji nkulya, a Yeshu gubhatolile nkate, gubhatendile eja kwa a Nnungu, gubhagebhenye, gubhaapelenje bhaajiganywa bhabho bhalinkuti, “Ntolanje nniyanganje, sheshino shiilu shangu.”
And as they were eating, Jesus, having taken bread, having expressed thanks, broke in pieces, and he gave to the disciples, and said, Take, eat, this is my body.
27 Kungai gubhatolile shikombe, gubhatendile eja kwa a Nnungu, gubhaapelenje bhalinkuti, “Mpapilanje mmowe,
And having taken the cup, having expressed thanks, he gave to them, saying, All ye drink of it,
28 pabha jejino minyai jangu jikong'ondela malagano, jijitika kwa ligongo lya bhandu, nkupinga bhaleshelelwanje yambi yabhonji.
for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is shed on behalf of many for remission of sins.
29 Ikabheje ngunakunnugulilanga, ngapapila kabhili divai ja shabhibhu mpaka lyubha pushimbapile divai ja ambi na mmanganya Muupalume gwa Atati.”
But I say to you, that I will, no, not drink of this fruit of the grapevine henceforth until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.
30 Bhakajimbanjeje lwimbo, gubhashoshilenje, gubhapitengene ku shitumbi sha Misheituni.
And having sung a hymn, they went out to the mount of Olives.
31 Kungai a Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Shilo sha lelo, mmowe shinngananje nineka, pabha ishijandikwa kuti, ‘Shininkome nkushunga, na ngondolo shiipwilingane.’
Then Jesus says to them, All ye will be caused to stumble by me in this night, for it is written, I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.
32 Ikabheje nyukaga shininnongolelanje kwenda ku Galilaya.”
But after I am raised up, I will go before you into Galilee.
33 A Petili gubhaabhalanjile a Yeshu, “Nkali bhowe bhalekangaga kunkulupalila nikummutuka, nne ngammutuka.”
But having answered, Peter said to him, If all men will be caused to stumble by thee, I will never be caused to stumble.
34 A Yeshu gubhaabhalanjile a Petili, “Kweli ngunakummalanjila, shilo sha lelo lipongo akanabhe kongobhela shinngane patatu.”
Jesus said to him, Truly I say to thee, that in this night, before a cock sounds, thou will deny me thrice.
35 A Petili gubhaabhalanjile, “Nkali ipinjikwaga kuwa pamo na mmwe, ngu ngankana.” Bhaajiganywa bhananji bhala gubhabheleketenje nneyo peyo.
Peter says to him, Even if I must die with thee, I will, no, not deny thee. And likewise also, said all the disciples.
36 Kungai a Yeshu gubhapite nabhonji ku bhushitani ja Getishemane, gubhaabhalanjilenje bhaajiganywa bhabho, “Ntamangane apano, nne naegejela mmujo kukwaajuga a Nnungu.”
Then Jesus comes with them to a place called Gethsemane, and he says to his disciples, Sit ye here until, after going, I may pray there.
37 Gubhaatolile a Petili na bhana bhabhili bha a Shebhedayo, gubhatandwibhe kuinjika na tenguka.
And having taken Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful and distressed.
38 Gubhaabhalanjilenje bhaajiganywa bhabho, “Ntima gwangu gushiinjika tome nawa, ntamangane apano, nsheyanje pamo na nne.”
Then Jesus says to them, My soul is deeply grieved, as far as of death. Remain ye here and watch with me.
39 Bhai, gubhapite mmujo kashoko, gubhagwile namanguku, gubhajujile, bhalinkuti, “Atati, itendekaga ai mbotekoi inambate, ikabheje nngabha malinga shinguti pinga nne, ikabheje malinga shinkupinga mmwe.”
And having gone forward a little, he fell on his face praying, and saying, My Father, if it be possible, may this cup pass from me. Nevertheless, not as I want, but as thou.
40 Gubhaajendelenje bhaajiganywa bhala, gubhaimenenje bhagonilenje. Gubhaalugulile a Petili, “Pakuti mwangasheyanga na nne kapela shaa jimo?
And he comes to the disciples, and finds them sleeping. And he says to Peter, So ye could not watch with me one hour.
41 Nsheyanje nkujuga, nkupinga nnalingwanga. Ntima unapinga, ikabheje shiilu shangali mashili.”
Watch and pray that ye enter not into temptation. Truly, the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.
42 Gubhapite gwabhili kukwaajuga a Nnungu bhalinkuti, “Atati, ikatendeshe ai mbotekoi kupita gwangali mmbata, bhai inkupinga itendeshe.”
Having gone again a second time, he prayed, saying, My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to pass from me, except I drink it, may thy will happen.
43 Gubhaajendelenje kabhili bhaajiganywa bhala, gubhaimenenje bhagonilenje, pabha bhashinkutopelwanga na lugono.
And having come again, he finds them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.
44 Bhai, gubhaaleshilenje, nigubhapite kukwaajuga a Nnungu gwatatu kwa malobhe gala pegala.
And when he left them, having gone away again, he prayed a third time, saying again the same statement.
45 Kungai gubhaajendelenje bhaajiganywa bhala, gubhaalugulilenje, “Bhuli nnagonangape na pumulila? Nnolanje! Malanga gaishe, Mwana juka Mundu apinga kamuywa mmakono ga bhakwetenje yambi.
Then he comes to his disciples, and says to them, Sleep what remains, and take rest. Behold, the hour has come near, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
46 Nnjumukanje tujabhule! Nnolanje, andendebhuka jula abhandishile.”
Awake, we go. Behold, he who betrays me has come near.
47 Bhai, a Yeshu pubhaaliji nkubheleketa nabhonji, shangupe gubhaishe a Yuda, bha munkumbi gwa likumi limo na bhabhili bhala. Bhali bhalongene nabhonji likundi likulungwa lya bhandunji, bhali bhajigelenje mapanga na ndonga, bhatumilwenje na bhakulungwanji bhaabhishila na bhanangulungwa bha bhandunji.
And while he was still speaking, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and clubs from the chief priest and elders of the people.
48 Na bhaatendebhwishe a Yeshu bhala bhashinkwaapanganga bhandunji shilangulo bhalinkuti, “Bhene bhushinaajambatebho mwaakamulanje.”
Now the man who betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomever I may kiss is he. Seize him.
49 Bhai a Yuda gubhaajendele a Yeshu, bhalinkuti, “Ngunakunkomaya, Mmaajiganya!” Gubhaajembete.
And straightaway having come to Jesus, he said, Hail, Rabbi, and kissed him much.
50 A Yeshu gubhaabhalanjile, “Ambwiga ntende shinng'ishile.” Bhandunji bhala gubhaikengene, gubhaakamwilenje a Yeshu nikwaatabha.
And Jesus said to him, Friend, why are thou here? Then having come, they threw their hands on Jesus, and seized him.
51 Jumo munkumbi gwa bhalinginji na a Yeshu bhala akugoloyaga nkono gwakwe, gwaolomwele upanga gwankomile ntumishi jwa Bhakulungwa Bhaabhishila, gwankatile likutu.
And behold, one of those with Jesus, having stretched out a hand, drew his sword, and when he struck the bondman of the high priest, he cut off his ear.
52 A Yeshu gubhammalanjile, “Bhika upanga gwako nnigonelo lyakwe, pabha jojowe abhulaga na upanga shabhulagwe na upanga.
Then Jesus says to him, Return thy sword into its place, for all those who take a sword will die by a sword.
53 Bhuli, nkakumumanyanga kuti ngakombwele kwaajuga Atati, nabhalabho shangupe bhakambeleshele makundi gamakulu makulu likumi limo na bhabhili ga malaika?
Or do thou think that I cannot now call my Father, and he will provide to me more than twelve legions of agents?
54 Ikabheje pushigamalile bhuli Majandiko gataya kuti inapinjikwa kubha nneyo?”
How then would the scriptures be fulfilled that it is necessary to happen this way?
55 Gene malangago a Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje likundi lya bhandunji lila, “Bhuli, nshikwiya ngamulanga nninginji na mapanga na ndonga mbuti nankupokonyola? Mobha gowe munaliji nniekalu nilijiganya mwangangamulanga.
In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, Did ye come out as against a robber with swords and clubs to seize me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye did not seize me.
56 Ikabheje gowega gashitendeka nkupinga gamalile majandiko ga ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu.” Penepo bhaajiganywa bhowe gubhaaleshilenje, nigubhabhutukenje.
But all this has come to pass, so that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples fled, having forsook him.
57 Bhai, bhandunji bhaakamwilenje a Yeshu bhala gubhaapelekenje kumui kwa a Kayapa, Bhakulungwa Bhaabhishila, kubhaimenenje bhaajiganya bha Shalia ja a Musha na bhanangulungwa.
And those who seized Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest where the scholars and the elders were assembled together.
58 A Petili gubhaakagwile nnyuma mpaka kulugwani lwa Bhakulungwa Bhabhishila, gubhajinjile nkati gubhatemi pamo na bhalinda, nkupinga bhalole shipinga koposhela.
But Peter followed him from afar, as far as the courtyard of the high priest. And having entered inside, he sat with the subordinates to see the outcome.
59 Bhai, bhakulungwanji bhaabhishila na bhalukumbi bhowe gubhaloleyenje ukong'ondelo gwa unami nkupinga bhaabhulaganje a Yeshu,
Now the chief priests and the elders and the whole council sought false testimony against Jesus, so that they might put him to death,
60 ikabheje gubhalepelenje, nkali bhapalinji bhaakong'ondela bhabhagwinji bha unami. Kungai gubhaikengene bhakong'ondela bhabhili,
and they did not find it. And although many false witnesses came, they did not find it.
61 nigubhashitenje, “Bhenebha bhashinkubheleketa, ‘Ngunakombola kulibhomola Liekalu lya a Nnungu nikulishenga kabhili kwa mobha gatatu.’”
But finally two false witnesses having come, they said, This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it by three days.
62 Bhakulungwa Bhabhishila gubhajimi gubhaabhalanjile a Yeshu, “Bhuli, nkaajangula? Ibhakunkong'ondelanga nndi bhandunjibha?”
And the high priest having stood up, he said to him, Answer thou nothing? What do these testify against thee?
63 Ikabheje a Yeshu bhangaajangula. Bhakulungwa Bhaabhishila gubhaabhalanjile, “Nnumbile kwa lina lya a Nnungu bhakwete gumi na ntubhalanjile monaga mmwe ni a Kilishitu, Bhanabhabho a Nnungu!”
But Jesus was silent. And having responded, the high priest said to him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us if thou are the Christ, the Son of God.
64 A Yeshu gubhaalugulile, “Mmwe ni nkubheleketa! Ikabheje ngunakummalanjilanga, tandubhila nnaino, shimummonanje Mwana juka Mundu atemi nkono nnilo gwa Bhakulungwa Bhakwete Mashili, alikwiya mmaunde ga kunnungu.”
Jesus says to him, Thou have said. Nevertheless I say to you, Henceforth ye will see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming in the clouds of the sky.
65 Penepo Bhakulungwa Bhaabhishila gubhapapwile nngubho yabho gubhashite, “Bhashikupulu! Tunapinga bhaakong'ondela kabhili? Mpilikenenje shibhashite kupulu.
Then the high priest tore his garments, saying, He has blasphemed. What further need have we of witnesses? Behold, now ye heard his blasphemy.
66 Nkubhonanga bhuli mmanganya?” Gubhaajangwilenje, “Inapinjikwa bhabhulagwe!”
What does it seem to you? Having answered, they said, He is deserving of death.
67 Kungai gubhaaunilenje mata kumeyo, gubhaakomilenje ubha na bhana gubhaakomilenje mapapa,
Then they spat in his face and struck him with a fist. And some slapped him,
68 bhalinkutinji “Mmwe a Kilishitu, bhai ntulondolele gani ankomile!”
saying, Prophesy to us, thou Christ. Who is he who struck thee?
69 A Petili pubhaliji bhatemi palanga lugwani, bhai, ntumishi jumo jwankongwe jwa Bhakulungwa Bhaabhishila akwaajendelaga, nigwashite, “Mmwe pumwaliji pamo na a Yeshu bha ku Galilaya.”
Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and one servant girl came to him, saying, Thou also were with Jesus the Galilean.
70 A Petili gubhakanile pa lugwinjili lwa bhowe gubhashite, “Ngakushimanya nkali shinkubheleketa.”
But he denied before them all, saying, I do not know what thou say.
71 Nabhalabho bhalikopoka pa nnango gwa lugwani, ntumishi juna jwankongwe gwabhabhweni, akwaalugulilangaga bhalinginji pepala bhala alinkuti, “Abha pubhaliji pamo na a Yeshu Bhanashaleti.”
And when he was gone out into the porch, another woman saw him, and says to them there, This man was also with Jesus the Nazarene.
72 Ikabheje a Petili gubhakanile kabhili bhalilumbila, “Ngakummanya aju munduju.”
And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.
73 Kungai, bhandunji bhalinginji pepala gubhaajendelenje a Petili, gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Kweli mmwe nkumbi gumo, nkali kubheleketa kwenu kunakummanyiya.”
And after a little while those who stood, having approached, said to Peter, Surely thou also are of them, for thy accent even makes thee apparent.
74 Penepo a Petili gubhatandwibhe kwiilosha na lumbila bhalinkuti, “Ngakummanya aju munduju!” Shangupe lipongo likukongobhelaga.
Then he began to curse vehemently and to swear, I do not know the man. And straightaway a cock sounded.
75 A Petili gubhakumbushile malobhe gubhabhalanjilwe na a Yeshu, “Lipongo akanabhe kongobhela, shinngane patatu.” Bhai, gubhakopweshe palanga, gubhagutile kwa kaje.
And Peter remembered the saying that Jesus said to him, Before a cock sounds, thou will deny me thrice. And having gone outside, he wept bitterly.
