Yohani 18
1 Yesu pakamaliliti kuluwa, kagenditi kumwambu kulushemba Kedironi, pamuhera na wafundwa wakuwi. Pahala panu paweriti na shiwunga sha mitera, Yesu kingira amu pamuhera na wafundwa wakuwi.
After he had spoken these words Jesus went forth with his disciples to a place across the Ravine of the Cedars, where there was a garden into which he and his disciples went.
2 Yuda, kamgalambukiti Yesu, pakamaniti pahala panu kwani mala zivuwa Yesu kaliwoniti na wafundwa wakuwi pahala palii.
Judas the Traitor also knew this place; for Jesus and his disciples often met there.
3 Yuda katoriti shipinga sha wanjagila kulawa kwa watambika wakulu wa Numba ya Mlungu na Mafalisayu, su kiza nawu mushiwunga womberi waweriti na limbamba lya motu na vimagi.
So after getting troops and some Temple police from the chief priests and Pharisees, Judas came there with lanterns and torches and weapons.
4 Yesu, kavimana goseri gagafira kumpata, kalawira, kawakosiya, “Mwankumsakula gaa?”
Then Jesus, knowing all that was coming upon him, went forth to meet them, and asked them, "Who is it that you are looking for?"
5 Nawomberi wankula, “Yesu gwa Nazareti!” Yesu kawagambira, “Neni ndo mweni.” Yuda yakaweriti kamgalambukiti kagoloka pamuhera nawomberi.
"For Jesus of Nazareth," they answered. He said to them, "I am he." (Now Judas also, the betrayer, was standing with them.)
6 Yesu pakawagambiriti, “Neni ndo mweni,” Wawuya kumbeli, waguwa pasi.
When Jesus said "I am he," they drew back and fell to the ground;
7 Yesu kawakosiya kayi, “Mwankumsakula gaa?” Wamwankula, “Yesu gwa Nazareti!”
so he asked them once more, "Whom are you looking for?" and they replied, "Jesus of Nazareth."
8 Yesu kawagambira, “Nuwagambireni kala neni ndo mweni. Su, payiwera mwankunsakula neni, muwaleki awa wagendi zyawu.”
"I have already told you that I am he," said Jesus. "If, then, you are looking for me, let these go their way."
9 Katakula aga su gapati kutimiya galii ganakaka gagatakulitwi, “Walii yagunupiti Tati, numwasa ndiri ata yumu.”
"(In order that the word which he had spoken might be fulfilled, "Of those whom thou hast given me I have not lost one.")
10 Simoni Peteru kaweriti na upanga, su, kuwulaviya kalidumura likutu lya kumliwu lya ntumintumi gwa Mtambika Mkulu. Ntumintumi ayu wamshema Malikusi.
Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it, and striking at the high priest’s slave, cut off his right ear.
11 Su, Yesu kamgambira Peteru, “Guwuzii upanga waku mumuhaku. Hashi, gulihola handa nandi ndiri shikombi sha ndabiri shakanupiti Tati gwangu?”
(The slave’s name was Malchus.) Then Jesus said to Peter. "Put up your sword in its sheath. the cup which my Father has given me, shall I not drink it?"
12 Shikundi sha wanjagila wa Rumi na Mnjagira mkulu na walolera wa Wayawudi wamkamuliti Yesu, wamtawa,
So the troops and their commandant and the Jewish police took Jesus, and bound him,
13 na kumjega kwanja kwa Anasi. Anasi kaweriti mganafu gwa Kayafa ndo mweni kaweriti Mtambika mkulu gwa shinja shilii.
and led him to Annas first. (For Annas was the Father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was the high priest that year -
14 Kayafa ayu ndo ulii yakaweriti kawagambiriti Wayawudi, membaka muntu yumu kahowi kwajili ya wantu wavuwa.
the Caiaphas who had advised the Jews that it was for their advantage that one man should die for the people.)
15 Simoni Peteru pamuhera na mfundwa gwingi wamfatiti Yesu. Toziya mfundwa yumonga ayu kaweriti kamanikana nentu kwa Mtambika Mkulu, hangu kagenda pamuhera na Yesu pakati pamdamu pa Mtambika Mkulu
Meanwhile Simon Peter was following Jesus, and so was another disciple who was known to the high priest, and they went in with Jesus into the court of the high priest’s palace.
16 Peteru pakaweriti kagoloka pamlyangu. Su, mfundwa gwingi yakamanikaniti na Mtambika mkulu kalawiti kunja, katakula na mdala yakaweriti pamlyangu na kumjega Peteru mungati.
But Peter took his stand outside, near the door. So the other disciple who was known to the high priest came out and spoke to the doorkeeper and brought Peter in.
17 Mnjagira mhinja ayu gwapamlyangu kamkosiya Peteru, “Hashi nagwenga viraa yumu gwa wafundwa wa muntu ayu?” Peteru kamgambira, “Ndala, neni ndiri!”
The doorkeeper (a maid servant) then said to Peter, "Are not you also one of this man’s disciples?" "No I am not," he answered.
18 Wantumintumi na wawanjagila waweriti wakoziya motu toziya kuweriti na mpepu, waweriti wanguyotera motu. Peteru kaweriti kagoloka pamuhera nawomberi kakwotera motu.
Now the slaves and the attendants were standing and warming themselves about a charcoal fire, which they had made because it was cold; and Peter also stood with them, and was warming himself.
19 Mtambika Mkulu kamkosiya Yesu kuusu wafundwa wakuwi na mafundu gakuwi.
Then the high priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and about his teaching.
20 Yesu kamwankula, “Ntakula na kila muntu mashaka goseri pawonikaniti. Kila mala nfunda munumba za Mlungu na Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, pahala pawalyonaga Wayawudi woseri na wala ntakula ndiri shoseri kwa kufifa.
Jesus answered him. "I have spoken to all the world openly. I always taught in a synagogue and in the temple, places where all the Jews are wont to assemble, and in secret I have spoken nothing.
21 Hashi gunkosiya neni? Guwakosiyi wantu yawampikinira neni. Womberi wavimana vyanuwagambiriti, wavimana shintu shantakuliti.”
"Why do you question me? Ask those who heard what I have said to them; these witnesses here know what I said."
22 Pakamaliliti kutakula aga yumu gwa wanjagila kamkomiti Yesu likofi pakalonga, “Gumwankula ntambu ayi Mtambika Mkulu?”
When he had spoken these words, one of the police standing by gave him a blow with his hand, saying as he did so, "Is that the way you answer the high priest?"
23 Yesu kankula, “Handa ntakula weri ndiri, gumugambiri kila muntu ka panu iweriti hashi, kumbiti handa ntakula weri, iwera hashi gunkoma?”
Jesus replied "If I have said anything wrong, give evidence concerning the wrong; but if I said what was true, why do you strike me?"
24 Su, Anasi kamjega Yesu kwa Mtambika Mkulu Kayafa pawamtawa.
Then Annas sent him in chains to Caiaphas, the high priest.
25 Simoni Peteru kaweriti panu kanguyotera motu. Su, wamkosiya, “Hashi, nagwenga viraa yumu gwa wafundwa wakuwi muntu ayu?” Yomberi kaberiti na kutakula, “Neni ndiri”.
Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him, "You are not also one of his disciples, are you not?" He denied it, saying "I am not."
26 Yumu gwa wantumintumi wa Mtambika Mkulu, nayomberi kaweriti mlongu gwa ulii yakadumulitwi likutu na Peteru katakula nukuwoniti pamuhera na Yesu mushiwunga sha mitera.
One of the slaves of the high priest, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, said, "Did not I myself see you with him in the garden."
27 Peteru kamlema kayi, palaa paliya njogolu kawika.
Peter again denied it; and at that very moment a cock crew.
28 Mandawila putiputi Yesu wamtola kwa Kayafa, wamjega mpaka kwa Liwali, wakulu awa wa Shiyawudi wingira ndiri amu, wafiriti ndiri kuwera wahumba, toziya wafiriti wawezi kuliya shiboga sha Pasaka.
From the house of Caiaphas they took Jesus to the Praetorium, and it was dawn. They themselves would not enter the Praetorium, in order that they might not be ceremonially defiled, but might be able to eat the Passover.
29 Su Pilatu kawagendiriti kulaa kunja, kawakosiya, “Muntu ayu katenda vintu gaa vidoda?”
So Pilate came outside to them and asked, "What charge do you bring against this man?"
30 Wamwankuliti, “Handa ayu kangaweriti muntu yakatenda gaherepa twangamjegiti ndiri kwagwenga.”
In reply they said, "If he had not been a criminal, we should not have handed him over you."
31 Pilatu kawagambira, “Mumutoli maweni muntu ayu, mumutozi kulawirana na malagaliru genu maweni.” Wayawudi wamwankula, “Twenga twahera uwezu wa kumtoza muntu yoseri kahowi.”
"Take him yourselves," answered Pilate, "and judge him according to your law."
32 Vilawiriti avi su viweri nakaka visoweru vyakatakuliti Yesu kulanguziya kuhowa na ntambu hakahowi.
The Jews answered him, "We are not allowed to put anyone to death" (that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled in which he predicted the kind of death he was to die).
33 Pilatu kawuya kayi mu liboma na kamshema Yesu, kamkosiya, “Eti, gwenga gwa mfalumi gwa Wayawudi?”
So Pilate went into the Praetorium again, and summoned Jesus. "Are you the King of the Jews?" he said.
34 Yesu kamwankula, “Hashi, gunkosiya hangu gumweni gwenga ama kwana wamonga wakugambira visoweru vyaneni?”
Jesus answered, "Are you saying this of your own accord, or did others say it to you about me?"
35 Pilatu kamwankula, “Hashi, gulihola Namyawudi neni? Wantu waku na watambika wakulu wakujega kwaneni. Gutenda shishi?”
"I am not a Jew, am I?" replied Pilate; "It is your own nation and the high priests who have handed you over to me. What have you done?"
36 Yesu katakula, “Utuwa waneni wa pasipanu ndiri, handa Utuwa waneni megaweri wa pasipanu, wantumintumi wa neni mewankomi ndiri, naniza kubatwa na Wayawudi, kumbiti Ufalumi wa neni wa pasipanu ndiri!”
Jesus answered him. "My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants have fought hard that I should not be handed the Jews; but in reality my kingdom is not of such origins."
37 Pilatu kamkosiya, “Gwenga gwa mtuwa?” Yesu kankula, “Gwenga gutakula neni na mtuwa. Neni nyiwukiti na kwiza pasipanu kwa shintu shimu, gutakula nakaka. Kwa ntambu ayi niza na unakaka. Kila yakawera na unakaka awu hakampikiniri.”
"You are a king, then? You!" said Pilate. "You say truly that I am a king." answered Jesus, "for this purpose I was born, and to this end came I into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Every man who is of the truth listens to my voice."
38 Pilatu kamkosiya, “Unakaka ndo shintu gaa?” Pilatu kawagendiriti kayi Wayawudi kunja na kawagambira, “Neni mona ndiri shidoda shoseri kwakuwi shakumtozera.
Pilate said to him, "What is truth?" As he said this, he went outside again to the Jews and said to them.
39 Kumbiti, kwa mwenga kwana shitiba sha neni kumvugulira muntu yumu mushibetubetu shipindi sha Pasaka, mfira numulekeziyani mfalumi gwa Wayawudi?”
"I find no crime in this man. Now it is a custom of yours that I release one prisoner to you at the time of the Passover feast. Do you wish me to release to you the King of the Jews?"
40 Wamwankula pawabota, “Ndala, ayu ndiri, tumfira Baraba!” Baraba yakaweriti mpokaji kwa wantu.
Then they all shouted again. "No, not him! Barabbas!" Now Barabbas was a robber.
