1 Mach avɨz, ñir emamp haŋ, Yuŋk Ohɨra Yakŋ Ohɨrav Israelɨnd han Ŋɨmbɨzahevaimar Hamb mach Yuŋk Ohɨra Eŋka Yis Mah Hamb ahevakarɨmar. Mach, haŋonaŋg wɨram kɨra anɨŋnsar hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd hamb wɨram kɨra ya Mosesɨnd injambɨr ahe sɨkahɨnd hamen hanave awakŋi ya ore kamŋgɨmar. Arɨ nzɨhanave Jisasɨh yosa si aŋgwore ŋe ya oramɨŋ hɨrohe mamta orɨŋgamɨndɨrarɨŋ arɨmŋgɨmar.
It was now two days before the Festival of the Passover and the Unleavened bread. The Chief Priests and the Teachers of the Law were looking for an opportunity to arrest Jesus by stealth, and to put him to death;
2 Arɨ yuŋk ohɨra mɨroma unsa sɨzɨnd haŋ ndɨn mɨŋam arɨmŋgɨmar. Ave osa anchɨ hamb arɨŋ we aŋkwɨ ŋakamŋgɨmɨnj arɨmŋgɨmar.
for they said: “Not during the Festival, for fear of a riot.”
3 Mach ave, Jisasɨv aiampɨra Betani handɨh we, wɨram emŋga usɨ aŋkarɨpɨr yupɨr okaŋgaŋgɨnsɨnd hand oramɨŋ ñɨmar. Mbɨkɨr ensa Saimon. Jisasɨv ñi antɨmɨŋ ŋkañɨzand anchɨ emŋga hamb ai nsɨham nchɨ nor kwarupɨr emamp aiwɨr yamb uñakŋnsɨnd han hɨraimar. Aiwɨr yamb han, han wahanz mɨŋ, han nsɨham nor ohɨra. Mach, anchɨ mbanamb nsɨham nchɨ nor han ŋazɨware aiwɨr yamb han Jisasɨnd zɨ handɨh ampɨhamar.
When Jesus was still at Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, while he was at table, a woman came with an alabaster jar of choice spikenard perfume of great value. She broke the jar, and poured the perfume on his head.
4 Ampɨhazand wɨram emŋgemŋga hamb wamŋgɨz ndɨŋ mpɨkɨm pɨr raz mbon ya mbon ya kamŋgɨmar. Mbɨ utɨndɨv aiwɨr yamb han mamah ŋkari arɨmŋgɨmar.
Some of those who were present said to one another indignantly: “Why has the perfume been wasted like this?
5 Arɨ wɨram eŋgwarɨŋ uŋkɨ eŋgwamŋgɨmɨr han, arɨ imbɨr nsɨham nor 300 silva ŋe osa anchɨ hanɨhan mah han eŋgwamɨrɨŋ arɨmŋgɨmar. Ave mbɨ anchɨ mbanan aŋkwɨ sɨmŋgɨmar.
This perfume could have been sold for more than thirty pounds, and the money given to the poor.”
6 Avɨz Jisasɨv ndɨŋɨh kamar. Ndɨn ererɨvar amar. Amɨ utɨndɨv ndɨn kɨr eŋgwamŋgɨn amar. Mbɨ yanɨh enta imbɨrun si amar.
“Let her alone,” said Jesus, as they began to find fault with her, “why are you troubling her? This is a beautiful deed that she has done for me.
7 Osa anchɨ hanɨhan mah hamb andɨŋmen mbah mbah ñɨndɨramŋgi amar. Amɨ ndɨŋ hɨrawɨŋɨn are, amɨ imbɨr hɨrawɨndɨramŋgɨn amar. Nzɨp andɨŋmen mbah mbah mɨñɨndɨram amar.
You always have the poor with you, and whenever you wish you can do good to them; but you will not always have me.
8 Enta han anchɨ mbanamb ramɨr han ndɨh ri amar. Ihɨnd yupɨr han aiwɨr yamb uñakŋnsɨndɨŋ ndɨh ampɨhi amar. Handɨv nzɨ maŋ yan hanaveonaŋg aiwɨr yamb uñakŋnsɨndɨŋ aŋkwe ŋgwamŋgɨŋɨnj amar.
She has done what she could; she has perfumed my body beforehand for my burial.
9 Nzɨ andɨŋ mɨŋun kin amar. Mbɨ isupɨr nzɨmoh nzɨmoh we Yakŋ Ohɨrand ya imbɨr eŋgwandɨramŋgi haŋ, anchɨ mbanand enta handɨvɨnsɨnd kandɨramŋgi amar. Ave mbɨ anchɨ mbanez njɨhamɨndɨramŋgi amar.
And I tell you, wherever, in the whole world, the Good News is proclaimed, what this woman has done will be told in memory of her.”
10 Mach ave, Jisasɨv oman ŋkiŋkiŋg undɨmaj sezɨrɨh ensamamar han, emŋga mbɨndɨŋ Judas Iskariot. Mach, Jisasɨh mbɨndɨŋ oman insɨŋ ŋgamɨŋɨn are, Judasɨv wɨram kɨra anɨŋnsar hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd pɨŋ omar.
After this, Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the Chief Priests, to betray Jesus to them.
11 Avɨz mbɨ han njɨhame mpɨ imbɨrvam ñɨhɨri ndɨn nsɨham nor eŋgwaŋɨn arar kamŋgɨmar. Az Judasɨv, Jisasɨh ŋe mbɨndɨŋ oman insɨŋ ŋgamamɨndɨv empa kɨrɨm kɨramar.
They were glad to hear what he said, and promised to pay him. So he looked for a way to betray Jesus opportunely.
12 Mach ave, yuŋk anɨŋnsar Yuŋk Ohɨra Eŋka Yis Mahɨnd Hamb ndɨh ahevakarɨmar. Mach, yuŋk haŋonaŋg mbɨ Yuŋk Ohɨra Yakŋ Ohɨrav Israelɨnd han Ŋɨmbɨzahevaimarɨnd sipsip han orempɨramŋganj. Mach, yuŋk mbanamb ahevakarɨz Jisasɨnd sezɨrɨv ndɨnɨh amarɨmŋgɨmar. Arɨ nzɨhandɨh we hanɨhan omanenta sɨndɨrarɨŋ arɨmŋgɨmar. Ave mɨroma unsa han ne Yuŋk Ohɨra Yakŋ Ohɨrav Israelɨnd Han Ŋɨmbɨzahevaimar Han njɨhamɨndɨran arɨmŋgɨmar.
On the first day of the Festival of the Unleavened bread, when it was customary to kill the Passover lambs, his disciples said to Jesus: “Where do you wish us to go and make preparations for your eating the Passover?”
13 Avɨz Jisasɨv mbɨkɨr sezɨr undɨmaj han kamar. Amɨ aiampɨra ohɨraŋ ahevohe wamŋgɨn wɨram emŋgav nchɨ yambɨnsɨnd han asɨŋ akŋi andɨŋ empasamɨŋ awakŋɨndari amar. Ndɨn mpehɨrovar amar.
Jesus sent forward two of his disciples and said to them: “Go into the city, and there a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you; follow him;
14 Mbɨ we wɨram emŋgand oramɨŋ ahevondari han, mach amɨ oram kehand wanɨr han mbanave kavar amar. Anɨŋzɨŋ entandɨv ki arar kavar amar.

Nzɨ ihɨnd saimen mɨroma unsa ne Yuŋk Ohɨra Yakŋ Ohɨrav Israelɨnd Han Ŋɨmbɨzahevaimar Han njɨhamɨndɨrarɨŋ arar ki arar kavar amar.
and, wherever he goes in, say to the owner of the house ‘The Teacher says — Where is my room where I am to eat the Passover with my disciples?’
15 Hanave kamŋgɨn mbɨ andɨŋ oram uncha ohɨra emŋga mbɨhawarɨnd han mbɨramɨz wamŋgɨn hanɨhansɨnd ñɨndari amar. Mach, amɨ kehaŋ ahevohe arɨŋɨndɨv mɨroma unsa han kɨrɨm omanenta sɨvar amar.
He will himself show you a large upstairs room, set out ready; and there make preparations for us.”
16 Ave mbɨ we aiampɨra ohɨraŋ ahevohe wamŋgɨz hanɨhan kamar hamb hanaveon ñɨhɨrɨmar. Avɨz mach, mbɨ mɨroma unsa han kɨrɨm omanenta sɨmŋgɨmar.
So the disciples set out and went into the city, and found everything just as Jesus had told them; and they prepared the Passover.
17 Mach, nanempand zuh razand Jisasɨv sezɨr oman ŋkiŋkiŋg undɨmajɨmen aimŋgɨmar.
In the evening he went there with the Twelve,
18 Ai antɨmɨŋ ŋgarɨwi namŋgɨzand Jisasɨv ndɨŋ kamar. Nzɨ andɨŋ mɨŋun kin amar. Wɨram emŋga amandɨŋ unsa pamɨnd yanɨmen nanmbɨri mbanambonaŋg yan ŋe ihɨnd ahambɨrunjɨnd oman insɨŋ ŋgamɨndari amar.
and when they had taken their places and were eating, Jesus said: “I tell you that one of you is going to betray me — one who is eating with me.”
19 Az sezɨrɨv han njɨhamŋgɨz mbɨndɨŋ mpɨ hamb kɨr ohɨra ñɨz pamuh pamuh ndɨn amarɨmŋgɨmar. Nzɨ nend toh, nzɨ nend toh arɨmŋgɨmar.
They were grieved at this, and began to say to him, one after another: “Can it be I?”
20 Avɨz Jisasɨv ndɨŋ kamar. Wɨram emŋga amandɨŋ oman ŋkiŋkiŋg undɨmaj mbonaŋg tor uncha pamɨnd yanɨmen sɨŋgwɨŋaŋmbɨri hambonaŋg randari amar.
“It is one of you Twelve,” said Jesus, “the one who is dipping his bread beside me into the dish.
21 Ya Yakŋ Ohɨrand hamb anɨŋzɨŋ enta unchaŋ ñi hamb mbanave ñi amar. Wɨramɨnd Nor mbanamb mandari arar mpamar amar. Kɨrɨm wɨram mbanamb, Wɨramɨnd Nor han kambɨrɨñɨrɨnd oman insɨŋ ŋgamɨndari kehamb, mbɨ pɨrɨvɨr ohɨra ŋandari amar. Mɨŋɨrɨv ndɨn akarɨ mah ramɨr, han imbɨr amar.
True, the Son of Man must go, as Scripture says of him, yet alas for that man by whom the Son of Man is being betrayed! For that man ‘it would be better never to have been born!’”
22 Mach, mbɨ namŋgɨzand Jisasɨv eŋka han ŋe Yakŋ Ohɨrah ya imbɨr eŋgwe ŋaŋepamar. Ŋaŋepe ndɨŋ eŋgwe kamar. Mban nambar amar. Mban yupɨr ihɨnd amar.
While they were eating, Jesus took some bread, and, after saying the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, and said: “Take it; this is my body.”
23 Mach, mbɨ sɨhomɨŋai kɨrɨpa nor yambɨnsɨnd han ŋe Yakŋ Ohɨrah ya imbɨr eŋgwe mach re ndɨŋ eŋgwaz mɨŋam namŋgɨmar.
Then he took a cup, and, after saying the thanksgiving, gave it to them, and they all drank from it.
24 Namŋgɨz ndɨŋ kamar. Mban ntɨ ihɨnd, han ya aŋkarɨpɨr kehan aminjinjɨnd hamb amar. Ihɨnd ntɨ hamb wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋndɨv akŋɨrɨzɨŋgandari amar.
“This is my Covenant-blood,” he said, “which is poured out on behalf of many.
25 Nzɨ andɨŋ mɨŋun kin amar. Nzɨ kɨrɨpa nor yamb mbanan ekwaŋg mɨnandɨram amar. Ñɨñ nde waŋ Yakŋ Ohɨrav osa anchɨ hanaveaŋg ŋɨmbɨz mbɨkɨr kwɨŋ ñɨndɨramŋgi kehamb ahevakarɨz kɨrɨpa nor yamb ichon nandarin amar.
I tell you that I shall never again drink of the juice of the grape, until that day when I shall drink it new in the Kingdom of God.”
26 Mach, Jisasɨv sezɨrmen marɨvai ekamŋgɨz mach raz aiampɨra ohɨra han erere ahevetai aparɨma Olivɨŋ awaromŋgɨmar.
They then sang a hymn, and went out up the Mount of Olives,
27 Mach, Jisasɨv ndɨŋ kamar. Amɨ yan ererɨndɨramŋgɨn amar. Yakŋ Ohɨrand anɨŋzɨŋ enta hamb hanave ki amar. Nzɨ wɨram sipsip wehɨrehɨrɨnd han orɨŋgamɨŋ sipsip hamb pamuh pamuh rar kɨrorɨndɨramŋgi arar ki amar.
presently Jesus said to them: “All of you will fall away; for Scripture says — ‘I will strike down the Shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’
28 Kɨrɨm Yakŋ Ohɨrav yan ekwaŋg ŋambiahaz nzoz injore isupɨr Galilindɨŋ ondarin amar.
Yet, after I have risen, I shall go before you into Galilee.”
29 Mach avɨz, Pitav ndɨn kamar. Wɨram emŋgemŋgav nan ererɨmŋgɨz, nzɨ nan mererɨndɨram amar.
“Even if every one else falls away,” said Peter, “yet I shall not.”
30 Avɨz Jisasɨv ndɨn kamar. Nzɨ nan mɨŋun kin amar. Irɨh zuh han aporamɨnd hamb undɨmaj tɨm oramah razand amɨ undɨmapam tɨm kandɨran amar. Nzɨ ndɨn mɨwarɨm arar kandɨran amar.
“I tell you,” answered Jesus, “that you yourself today — yes, this very night — before the cock crows twice, will disown me three times.”
31 Az Pitav ya aŋkarɨpɨr ke kamar. Yand nand eran orempɨramŋgɨz amar. Nzɨ ndɨn mɨwarɨm arar mɨkandɨram amar. Mach, sezɨr emŋgemŋga hamb hanaveam kamŋgɨmar.
But Peter vehemently protested: “Even if I must die with you, I shall never disown you!” And they all said the same.
32 Mach avɨz, Jisasɨv sezɨrmen isupɨr emŋga han, mbɨkɨr ensa Getsemani handɨh ahevɨkɨrorɨmŋgɨz ndɨŋ mbanave kamar. Amɨ mbanaŋ ŋgarɨwɨmŋgɨnand, nzɨ Yakŋ Ohɨra ahaz orɨndarin amar.
Presently they came to a garden known as Gethsemane, and Jesus said to his disciples “Sit down here while I pray.”
33 Ave mbɨ Pitand Jemsɨnd Jonɨnd ŋɨmbi mpahɨromar. Jisasɨv we ondo ake njɨhame hɨro hɨrai raz muyakam. Az mpɨ mbɨkɨr hamb kɨr kɨvah ñɨmar.
He took with him Peter, James, and John; and began to show signs of great dismay and deep distress of mind.
34 Ave ndɨŋ kamar. Yan mpɨ hamb kɨr kɨvah ñi amar. Kɨr hamb raz nzɨ mandarin toh amar. Amɨ mbanaŋ ñi omanenta wehɨrɨvar amar.
“I am sad at heart,” he said, “sad even to death; wait here, and watch.”
35 Ave sɨwaŋkwe paravɨzɨŋgwi ŋgañi Yakŋ Ohɨrah ahaz oror kamar. Yakŋ, ui kɨvah hamb yan imbɨr kivɨmɨr oh o nend amar.
Going on a little further, he threw himself on the ground, and began to pray that, if it were possible, he might be spared that hour.
36 Ooo Abba, ihɨnd Yakŋ amar. Amɨ hanɨhan utuhutuh imbɨr sɨmɨn amar. Sɨhomɨŋai mban yanɨŋ kiaŋgwɨv amar. Kɨrɨm ihɨnd njɨhiŋam ŋamɨn amar. Amakɨr njɨhiŋon ŋamb amar.
“Abba, Father,” he said, “all things are possible to thee; take away this cup from me; yet, not what I will, but what thou willest.”
37 Mach, mbɨ hanave ahaz ore ke ekwaŋg ai waz sezɨr undɨmapam hamb ikwɨ ŋgañɨmŋgɨmar. Ave mbɨ Pitah kamar. Saimon, amɨ ikwɨ ŋgañɨñɨmbɨran oh a amar. Amɨ utɨndɨv rapɨraŋk pamuh ñiaŋg wehɨrɨmah ran amar.
Then he came and found the three Apostles asleep. “Simon,” he said to Peter, “are you asleep? Could not you watch for one hour?
38 Amɨ wehɨrehɨr Yakŋ Ohɨrah ahaz oror ñɨmbar amar. Ave Satanɨmb andɨŋ enta kɨvah rarɨndɨv ŋajɨmɨnj amar. Mpɨ hamb hanɨhan sɨzɨndɨv ri amar. Kɨrɨm yupɨr han ndɨn aŋkarɨpɨr mah amar.
Watch and pray,” he said to them all, “that you may not fall into temptation. True, the spirit is eager, but human nature is weak.”
39 Ave mbɨ ekwaŋg we eŋambɨr Yakŋ Ohɨra ahaz orɨmar hanaveonaŋg ahaz orɨmar.
Again he went away, and prayed in the same words;
40 Mach, ndɨŋ ikwɨnd ikwɨnd ahaz ramŋgɨmar. Az Jisasɨv ekwaŋg ai waz sezɨrɨv ikwɨ ŋgañɨmŋgɨmar. Avɨz ndɨŋ emɨrazahaz mbɨ nte ndɨn ya utɨman arar kamŋgɨmɨr han mɨwamŋgɨm.
and coming back again he found them asleep, for their eyes were heavy; and they did not know what to say to him.
41 Avɨz Jisasɨv ekwaŋg ai sezɨrɨh mbanave kamar. Amɨ mbah ŋgañi wɨr ñɨmŋgɨmbɨran oh a amar. Ui mach amar. Rapɨraŋk hamb ndɨh ahevakari amar. Mbɨ Wɨramɨnd Nor han ŋe wɨram enta kɨvah sɨzɨnd oman insɨŋ ŋgamɨndari amar.
A third time he came, and said to them: “Sleep on now, and rest yourselves. Enough! My time has come. Hark! the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of wicked men.
42 Ŋaiahamŋgɨn om amar. Wavar amar. Wɨram yan mbɨndɨŋ oman insɨŋ ŋgamɨndari hamb ndɨh ahevakari amar.
Up, and let us be going. Look! my betrayer is close at hand.”
43 Mach ave, Jisasɨv ya mban kah ñɨzand mbɨkɨr sezɨr emŋga Judasɨh, ndɨn emŋga mbɨndɨŋ Jisasɨv oman ŋkiŋkiŋg undɨmaj sezɨrɨh ensamamar hamb, mbɨ pams haŋon ahevakarɨmar. Mach, wɨram kɨra anɨŋnsar hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd, wɨram kɨra ya Mosesɨnd injambɨr ahe sɨkahɨnd, mach wɨram untɨm ohɨra kɨra Judand hanave kamŋgɨz wɨram akŋ hamb Judasmen aimŋgɨmar. Mbɨ naip osapɨrɨnd aitɨmɨnd hanave hɨraimŋgɨmar.
And just then, while he was still speaking, Judas, who was one of the Twelve, came up; and with him a crowd of people, with swords and clubs, sent by the Chief Priests, the Teachers of the Law, and the Councillors.
44 Mach, wɨram Jisasɨh kambɨrɨñɨrɨnd oman insɨŋ ŋgamɨmar hamb ndɨŋ eŋambɨrun kamar. Nzɨ we wɨram ndɨn kɨm kandarin haŋ wavar amar. Ndɨn aŋgwore ŋe oman uŋkɨri hɨrohe omanenta ovɨherɨvar amar.
Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them. “The man whom I kiss,” he had said, “will be the one; arrest him and take him away safely.”
45 Mach, Judasɨv ahevakare Jisasɨnd pɨŋ pams haŋon ai kamar. Anɨŋzɨŋ entand are kɨrɨm kɨm kamar.
As soon as Judas came, he went up to Jesus at once, and said: “Rabbi!” and kissed him.
46 Kɨm kaz mach, emŋgemŋga hamb ndɨn aŋgwore kɨrɨm ŋamŋgɨmar.
Then the men seized Jesus, and arrested him.
47 Wɨram emŋga hamb wɨram anɨŋnsar ohɨra hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd ntɨŋ mamah ŋaŋɨnd hamb mbez aimar. Mach, wɨram emŋga ikwɨm aŋkwañɨmar hamb naip osapɨr mbɨkɨr han ŋe wɨram kehand njempɨŋ han mɨŋam akokamar.
One of those who were standing by drew his sword, and struck at the High Priest’s servant, and cut off his ear.
48 Avɨz Jisasɨv ndɨŋ kamar. Yan wamŋgɨn wɨram akɨmɨnd ñɨŋ, handɨv naip osapɨrɨnd aitɨmɨnd ŋe yan aŋgwore ŋaŋɨn are aimŋgɨn oh a amar.
But Jesus interposed, and said to the men: “Have you come out, as if after a robber, with swords and clubs, to take me?
49 Nzɨ andɨŋmenam Yakŋ Ohɨrand marɨvai oram ohɨraŋ ñɨñ ya sɨkajin amar. Utɨndɨv yan haŋon aŋgwore ŋamah ramŋgan amar. Kɨrɨm eran ya anɨŋzɨŋ enta Yakŋ Ohɨrand unchaŋ ñi han hamb ahevakarɨz amar.
I have been among you day after day in the Temple Courts teaching, and yet you did not arrest me; but this is in fulfilment of the Scriptures.”
50 Mbɨ hanave kaz, sezɨrɨv ndɨn erere kɨrɨm kɨrorɨmŋgɨmar.
And all the Apostles forsook him, and fled.
51 Mach avɨz, wɨram norŋɨr emŋga hamb imɨn okamɨŋam epe Jisas mpehɨromar. Mpehɨrozand ndɨn aŋgwore ŋaŋɨn arar ramŋgɨz, kɨrɨm mbɨ imɨn han erere iriŋgir okarɨmar.
One young man did indeed follow him, wrapped only in a linen sheet. They tried to arrest him;
but he left the sheet in their hands, and fled naked.
53 Mach avɨz, wɨram kɨra hamb Jisasɨh wɨram anɨŋnsar ohɨra hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd pɨŋ hɨromŋgɨmar. Hɨromŋgɨz wɨram kɨra anɨŋnsar hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd, wɨram untɨm ohɨra kɨra Judand, mach wɨram kɨra ya Mosesɨnd injambɨr ahe sɨkahɨnd mɨŋamun hanave aŋkwezawɨmŋgɨmar.
Then they took Jesus to the High Priest; and all the Chief Priests, the Councillors, and the Teachers of the Law assembled.
54 Wɨram emŋgemŋga hamb Jisasɨh hɨromŋgɨzand Pitav taŋɨpɨr kansɨnd mpehɨromar. Mpehɨrohe we imbɨz wɨram anɨŋnsar ohɨra hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd haŋ ahevohe irɨvɨnd kɨramen pɨrɨtɨmɨŋ yupɨr iŋki ŋgarɨwɨmŋgɨmar.
Peter, who had followed Jesus at a distance into the court-yard of the High Priest, was sitting there among the police-officers, warming himself at the blaze of the fire.
55 Mach, wɨram kɨra anɨŋnsar hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd, mach aiyopand kɨra mɨŋamun, mbɨ Jisasɨh mamta orɨŋgamɨŋɨn are wɨram emŋgemŋga oreŋgɨmŋgɨmar. Mbɨ Jisasɨv utuhutuh enta kɨvah kɨvah sanj kehan kamŋgɨz wawɨndɨv ndɨŋ oreŋgɨmŋgɨz aimŋgɨmar. Az nend.
Meanwhile the Chief Priest and the whole of the High Council were trying to get such evidence against Jesus as would warrant his being put to death, but they could not find any;
56 Wɨram akŋ hamb ai ndɨn ya yosa yosa kamŋgɨzand kɨrɨm ya mbɨndɨŋ hamb pamɨnd mɨñɨm.
for, though there were many who gave false evidence against him, yet their evidence did not agree.
57 Mach, wɨram hanaveaŋg aŋkwañɨhɨri ndɨn ya yosa mbanave kamŋgɨmar.
Presently some men stood up, and gave this false evidence against him —
58 Arɨ njɨhamɨrɨŋand mbɨ hanɨh arar kar arɨmŋgɨmar. Nzɨ oram Yakŋ Ohɨrand wɨramb asɨmŋgɨmar mban akorɨndarin arar kar arɨmŋgɨmar. Mach, ñir emamp haŋ icha asɨndarin arar kar arɨmŋgɨmar. Icha han wɨramb masɨndɨramŋgɨm arar kar arɨmŋgɨmar.
“We ourselves heard him say ‘I will destroy this Temple made with hands, and in three days build another made without hands.’”
59 Kɨrɨm ya mbɨndɨŋ hambez pamɨnd mɨñɨm.
Yet not even on that point did their evidence agree.
60 Mach ave, wɨram anɨŋnsar ohɨra hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd hamb, mbɨ aiyopand kɨrand uhɨmɨŋ aŋkwañi Jisasɨh amarɨmar. Amɨ nanɨh ya hamb awawɨmbɨramŋgi handɨv amɨ utɨndɨv ya han orake kamah ran amar.
Then the High Priest stood forward, and questioned Jesus. “Have you no answer to make?” he asked. “What is this evidence which these men are giving against you?”
61 Kɨrɨm Jisasɨv ya orake mɨkam. Avɨz wɨram anɨŋnsar ohɨra hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd hamb ndɨn ekwaŋg amare kamar. Nan wɨram Yakŋ Ohɨrav mbɨkɨr osa anchɨ ekwaŋg ŋɨmbɨmbɨndɨv uyɨŋgwamɨmar hamb oh a amar. Nan Yakŋ Ohɨrand nor mbɨkɨr ensa ŋambiaharɨrɨŋ hand oh a amar.
But Jesus remained silent, and made no answer. A second time the High Priest questioned him. “Are you,” he asked, “the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?”
62 Az Jisasɨv kamar. Han nzon amar. Handɨv amɨ wamŋgɨn Wɨramɨnd Nor hamb Yakŋ Ohɨra oman mɨŋɨnd aŋkarɨpɨrnsɨnd handɨh ŋkañɨndari amar. Mbɨ raka uncha ñaŋ handɨh ñi ŋkaindari amar.
“I am,” replied Jesus, “and you shall all see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the Almighty; and ‘coming in the clouds of heaven’.”
63 Mbɨ hanave kaz wɨram anɨŋnsar ohɨra hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd hamb yupɨr hɨrahɨr osapɨr mbɨkɨr han ŋunchɨri kamar. Arɨ wɨram emŋgemŋga han mbɨkɨr enta mban kampɨhe kahɨndɨv wɨndɨv moreŋgɨŋam amar.
At this the High Priest tore his vestments. “Why do we want any more witnesses?” he exclaimed.
64 Mbon Yakŋ Ohɨrah yarahe kaz ndɨh njɨhamŋgɨn amar. Arɨ ndɨn utɨzɨndɨrarɨŋ amar. Az mbɨ mɨŋam ya vɨhe kamŋgɨmar. Mbɨ enta kɨvahɨnsɨnd, mbɨ eran maz arɨmŋgɨmar.
“You heard his blasphemy? What is your verdict?” They all condemned him, declaring that he deserved death.
65 Mach ave, wɨram emŋgemŋgav ondo ake ndɨn mpɨñ atazɨpazivi imɨn emansɨŋ ampɨnsɨŋ asɨrame ndɨn oror kamŋgɨmar. Nan uñɨmb ororɨmbɨramŋgi arɨmŋgɨmar. Nan Yakŋ Ohɨrav ya kaŋɨnj han kav arɨmŋgɨmar. Mbɨ yan orɨmŋgi arar kav arɨmŋgɨmar. Mach avɨz, irɨvɨnd hamb ndɨn ŋe orɨmŋgɨmar.
Some of those present began to spit at him, and to blindfold his eyes, and strike him, saying, as they did so, “Now play the Prophet!” and even the police-officers received him with blows.
66 Mach, Pitav mbɨŋkw oram imbɨz uncha handɨh ñɨmar. Ñɨzand anchɨ emŋga hamb aimar. Anchɨ mbanamb wɨram anɨŋnsar ohɨra hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd oramɨŋ ntɨŋ ŋanj.
While Peter was in the court-yard down below, one of the High Priest’s maidservants came up;
67 Mbɨ ai waz Pitav pɨrɨtɨmɨŋ yupɨr iŋki ŋkañɨmar. Ŋkañɨzand anchɨ mbanamb ndɨn omanenton wehɨre kamar. Amez Jisas Nasaretɨndmen ñɨrɨn amar.
and, seeing Peter warming himself, she looked closely at him, and exclaimed: “Why, you were with Jesus, the Nazarene!”
68 Az Pitav kamar. Nzɨ nend amar. Nzɨ amakɨr ya kan han mɨwarɨm amar. Ave ŋaiahe ahevai oram imbɨz impikŋ handɨh aŋkwañɨmar. Az aporamɨnd hamb oramar.
But Peter denied it. “I do not know or understand what you mean,” he replied. Then he went out into the porch;
69 Avɨz Pitav aŋkwañɨzand anchɨ mbanamb ekwaŋg we ondo ake wɨram emŋgemŋga aŋkwañɨhɨrɨmŋgɨmar han kamar. Wɨram mbanambez ndɨŋmen ñɨj amar.
and there the maidservant, on seeing him, began to say again to the by-standers: “This is one of them!”
70 Az mbɨ ekwaŋg nend arar kamar. Mach, ñɨñ nde wɨram kɨra aŋkwañɨhɨrɨmŋgɨmar hamb Pitah kamŋgɨmar. Mɨŋun arɨmŋgɨmar. Nan wɨram mbɨndɨŋun arɨmŋgɨmar. Nan wɨram han Galilind arɨmŋgɨmar.
But Peter again denied it. Soon afterwards the bystanders again said to him: “You certainly are one of them; why you are a Galilean!”
71 Avɨz mbɨ ya aŋkarɨpɨron ke kamar. Ñaŋ ohɨra amar. Nzɨ yosa kaŋɨn han, Yakŋ Ohɨrav yan eran kɨvah sɨz amar. Amɨ wɨram ndɨndɨv kamŋgɨn kehan nzɨ mɨwarɨm amar.
But he began to swear with the most solemn imprecations: “I do not know the man you are speaking about.”
72 Mach, ya mban kazand pams haŋon aporamɨnd hamb ekwaŋg kɨrɨm oramar. Orazand Pitav Jisasɨv ndɨn ya kamar handɨv njɨhamɨmar. Aporamɨnd hamb undɨmaj tɨm oramah razand amɨ undɨmapam tɨm kandɨran amar. Nzɨ ndɨn mɨwarɨm arar kandɨran amar. Jisasɨnd ya kehan njɨhame Pitav njɨhi kɨrɨm ŋe ŋgwañ ohɨra ekamar.
At that moment, for the second time, a cock crowed; and Peter remembered the words that Jesus had said to him — ‘Before a cock has crowed twice, you will disown me three times’; and, as he thought of it, he began to weep.
