< Yohannis 18 >

1 Yesuus wantoota kanneen dubbatee barattoota isaa wajjin Sulula Qeediroon gama iddoo biqiltuun ture tokkotti ceʼe; innis, barattoonni isaas achi keessa seenan.
When Jesus had spoken these words, he went out with his disciples over the brook Kidron, where there was a garden, into which he and his disciples entered.
2 Yesuus yeroo baayʼee barattoota isaa wajjin achitti wal argaa waan tureef, Yihuudaan inni Yesuusin dabarsee kennu sunis iddoo sana beeka ture.
Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place, for Jesus often met there with his disciples.
3 Kanaafuu Yihuudaan tuuta loltootaatii fi qondaaltota luboota hangafootaa fi Fariisota biraa ergaman dura deemaa achi dhufe. Isaanis guca, ibsaa fi miʼa lolaa qabatanii turan.
Judas then, having taken a detachment of soldiers and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.
4 Yesuusis waan isa irra gaʼuuf jiru hunda beeknaan gad baʼee, “Isin eenyun barbaaddu?” jedhee isaan gaafate.
Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were happening to him, went out and said to them, “Who are you looking for?”
5 Isaanis deebisanii, “Yesuus isa Naazreeti” jedhan. Yesuus immoo, “Ani isaa dha” jedhe. Yihuudaan inni dabarsee isa kennu sunis jara wajjin achi dhaabachaa ture.
They answered him, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus said to them, “I am he.” Judas also, who betrayed him, was standing with them.
6 Yommuu Yesuus, “Ani isaa dha” isaaniin jedhetti dugda duubatti deebiʼanii lafatti kukkufan.
When therefore he said to them, “I am he,” they went backward and fell to the ground.
7 Inni ammas, “Isin eenyun barbaaddu?” jedhee isaan gaafate. Isaanis, “Yesuus isa Naazreeti” jedhan.
Again therefore he asked them, “Who are you looking for?” They said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”
8 Yesuusis deebisee, “Ani, ‘Ani isaa dha’ isiniin jedheera. Kanaafuu, isin yoo na barbaaddan namoota kanneen dhiisaa haa deemanii!” jedhe.
Jesus answered, “I told you that I am he. If therefore you seek me, let these go their way,”
9 Kunis akka dubbiin inni, “Ani warra ati naa kennite keessaa tokko illee hin ganne” jedhee dubbate sun raawwatamuuf taʼe.
that the word might be fulfilled which he spoke, “Of those whom you have given me, I have lost none.”
10 Simoon Phexros goraadee qabu luqqifatee garbicha luba ol aanaa dhaʼee gurra isaa mirgaa irraa kute. Maqaan garbicha sanaas Maalkoosii dha.
Simon Peter therefore, having a sword, drew it, struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus.
11 Yesuusis Phexrosiin, “Goraadee kee manʼee isaatti deebisi! Ani xoofoo Abbaan naa kenne hin dhuguu?” jedhe.
Jesus therefore said to Peter, “Put the sword into its sheath. The cup which the Father has given me, shall I not surely drink it?”
12 Tuunni loltootaa, ajajaan isaaniitii fi eegdonni Yihuudootaas Yesuusin qabanii hidhan.
So the detachment, the commanding officer, and the officers of the Jews seized Jesus and bound him,
13 Isaanis duraan dursanii Haannaasitti isa geessan; Haannaas abbaa niitii Qayyaaffaa ti; Qayyaaffaan immoo bara sana luba ol aanaa ture.
and led him to Annas first, for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
14 Qayyaaffaan isa akka namni tokko uummataaf duʼuun wayyu Yihuudoota gorsee turee dha.
Now it was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was expedient that one man should perish for the people.
15 Simoon Phexrosii fi barataan biraa Yesuus faana buʼan. Barataan sunis waan luba ol aanaa biratti beekamaa tureef, Yesuus wajjin dallaa luba ol aanaa keessa seene;
Simon Peter followed Jesus, as did another disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and entered in with Jesus into the court of the high priest;
16 Phexros garuu balbala dura ala dhaabachaa ture. Barataan luba ol aanaa biratti beekamaa ture kaan gad baʼee intala balbala eegdutti himee Phexrosin ol seensise.
but Peter was standing at the door outside. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to her who kept the door, and brought in Peter.
17 Intalli balbala eegdu sunis Phexrosiin, “Atis barattoota namicha kanaa keessaa tokko mitii?” jette. Inni immoo deebisee, “Ana miti” jedhe.
Then the maid who kept the door said to Peter, “Are you also one of this man’s disciples?” He said, “I am not.”
18 Yeroon isaa waan dhaamocha tureef garboonnii fi eegdonni ibidda qabsiifatanii dhadhaabatanii qaqqaammachaa turan. Phexrosis isaan wajjin dhaabatee qaqqaammachaa ture.
Now the servants and the officers were standing there, having made a fire of coals, for it was cold. They were warming themselves. Peter was with them, standing and warming himself.
19 Yommus lubni ol aanaan Yesuusin waaʼee barattoota isaatii fi waaʼee barsiisa isaa gaafate.
The high priest therefore asked Jesus about his disciples and about his teaching.
20 Yesuusis akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Ani ifaan ifatti addunyaatti dubbadheera; iddoo Yihuudoonni hundi itti walitti qabamanitti, manneen sagadaattii fi mana qulqullummaa keessattis ani yeroo hunda barsiisaan ture. Ani waan tokko illee icciitiidhaan hin dubbanne.
Jesus answered him, “I spoke openly to the world. I always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where the Jews always meet. I said nothing in secret.
21 Ati maaliif na gaafatta? Warra waan ani isaaniin jedhe dhagaʼan gaafadhu. Kunoo isaan waan ani jedhe beeku.”
Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard me what I said to them. Behold, they know the things which I said.”
22 Yommuu Yesuus wantoota kanneen jedhetti qondaaltota achi ijaajjaa turan keessaa tokko, “Luba ol aanaaf akkana deebiftaa?” jedhee isa kabale.
When he had said this, one of the officers standing by slapped Jesus with his hand, saying, “Do you answer the high priest like that?”
23 Yesuusis deebisee, “Yoo ani waan hamaa dubbadhee jiraadhe, waan hamaa sana dhugaa baʼi. Yoo ani waan qajeelaa dubbadhee jiraadhe garuu ati maaliif na rukutta?” jedhe.
Jesus answered him, “If I have spoken evil, testify of the evil; but if well, why do you beat me?”
24 Haannaasis Yesuusin akkuma inni hidhamee jirutti gara lubicha ol aanaa, gara Qayyaaffaatti erge.
Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas, the high priest.
25 Simoon Phexros dhaabatee ibidda qaqqaammachaa ture. Kanaafuu isaan, “Atis barattoota isaa keessaa tokko mitii?” jedhaniin. Inni immoo, “Ana mitii” jedhee haale.
Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him, “You aren’t also one of his disciples, are you?” He denied it and said, “I am not.”
26 Garboota luba ol aanaa keessaas firri namicha Phexros gurra isaa irraa kute sanaa tokko, “Ani iddoo biqiltuutti isa wajjin si hin arginee?” jedheen.
One of the servants of the high priest, being a relative of him whose ear Peter had cut off, said, “Didn’t I see you in the garden with him?”
27 Phexros ammas ni gane; yommusuma indaanqoon iyye.
Peter therefore denied it again, and immediately the rooster crowed.
28 Yihuudoonnis Yesuusin mana Qayyaaffaatii fuudhanii masaraa bulchaa warra Roomaatti geessan. Yeroon sun ganama barii ture; Yihuudoonnis akka hin xuroofneef jedhanii masaraa ol hin seenne; kunis akka Faasiikaa nyaachuu dandaʼaniif.
They led Jesus therefore from Caiaphas into the Praetorium. It was early, and they themselves didn’t enter into the Praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the Passover.
29 Kanaafuu Phiilaaxoos gara isaaniitti gad baʼee, “Himanni isin namicha kana irratti dhiʼeessitan maali?” jedhee gaafate.
Pilate therefore went out to them and said, “What accusation do you bring against this man?”
30 Isaanis, “Utuu namichi kun yakka hojjechuu baatee nu silaa isa dabarsinee sitti hin kenninu ture” jedhanii deebisaniif.
They answered him, “If this man weren’t an evildoer, we wouldn’t have delivered him up to you.”
31 Phiilaaxoosis, “Isin ofuma keessanii isa fuudhaatii akka seera keessaniitti itti muraa” jedheen. Yihuudoonnis, “Nu garuu nama tokko illee ajjeesuuf mirga hin qabnu” jedhaniin.
Pilate therefore said to them, “Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law.” Therefore the Jews said to him, “It is illegal for us to put anyone to death,”
32 Kunis wanni Yesuus akka duʼa akkamiitiin duʼuuf jiru argisiisuuf jedhee dubbate sun akka raawwatamuuf taʼe.
that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spoke, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
33 Phiilaaxoos ammas masaraa mootummaa seene; Yesuusinis ofitti waamee, “Ati mootii Yihuudootaatii?” jedhee isa gaafate.
Pilate therefore entered again into the Praetorium, called Jesus, and said to him, “Are you the King of the Jews?”
34 Yesuusis, “Waan kana sumatu jedhe moo namoota biraatu waaʼee koo sitti hime?” jedhee gaafate.
Jesus answered him, “Do you say this by yourself, or did others tell you about me?”
35 Phiilaaxoosis deebisee, “Anatu Yihuudiidhaa ree? Kan dabarsee natti si kenne sabuma keetii fi luboota hangafoota. Garuu ati maali gooteeti?” jedheen.
Pilate answered, “I’m not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests delivered you to me. What have you done?”
36 Yesuusis, “Mootummaan koo kan addunyaa kanaati miti. Utuu kan addunyaa kanaa taʼee silaa akka ani dabarfamee Yihuudootatti hin kennamneef tajaajiltoonni koo naa lolu turan. Amma garuu mootummaan koo kan addunyaa kanaa miti” jedhe.
Jesus answered, “My Kingdom is not of this world. If my Kingdom were of this world, then my servants would fight, that I wouldn’t be delivered to the Jews. But now my Kingdom is not from here.”
37 Phiilaaxoosis, “Yoos ati mootii dha kaa!” jedheen. Yesuus immoo, “Akka ani mootii taʼe atuu jette. Dhugumaan wanni ani dhaladhee gara addunyaa dhufeefis dhugaadhaaf dhugaa baʼuuf. Namni dhugaaf dhaabatu hundinuu sagalee koo dhagaʼa” jedhee deebise.
Pilate therefore said to him, “Are you a king then?” Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. For this reason I have been born, and for this reason I have come into the world, that I should testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice.”
38 Phiilaaxoosis, “Dhugaan maal inni?” jedheen. Innis erga waan kana dubbatee booddee amma illee Yihuudootatti gad baʼee akkana jedheen; “Ani balleessaa tokko illee isa irratti hin arganne.
Pilate said to him, “What is truth?” When he had said this, he went out again to the Jews, and said to them, “I find no basis for a charge against him.
39 Garuu isin akka ani yeroo Faasiikaatti nama tokko gad isinii dhiisu bartee godhattaniirtu. Kanaafuu akka ani, ‘Mootii Yihuudootaa’ gad isiniif dhiisu barbaadduu?”
But you have a custom that I should release someone to you at the Passover. Therefore, do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”
40 Isaan amma illee iyyanii, “Lakki, Barabbaas malee isa miti!” jedhan. Barbaas kun saamtuu ture.
Then they all shouted again, saying, “Not this man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a robber.
