Luka 23
1 Shikundi shoseri wagolokiti, wamjega Yesu kulongolu kwa Pilatu,
And the whole company of them arose, and carried him before Pilate.
2 Wanja kumsitaki, pawalonga, “Tumwoniti muntu ayu kankuwasongiziya wantu wetu, na kuwaberiziya wantu kumupanana kodi Kaisari, pakawagambira Kristu mweni ndo, mfalumi.”
And they began to accuse him, and said: We have found this man seducing our people, and forbidding to pay the capitation money to Caesar, and declaring himself to be king Messiah.
3 Pilatu kamkosiyiti yomberi, “Hashi, gwenga ndo Mfalme gwa wayawudi?” Yesu kamuwankula, “Gwenga gulonga.”
And Pilate interrogated him, and said to him: Art thou king of the Jews? He said to him: Thou hast said.
4 Pilatu kawagambira watambika wakulu wa numba ya Mlungu na lipinga lya wantu, “Mona likosa ndiri lyoseri kwa muntu ayu.”
And Pilate said to the chief priests and the company: I find no crime upon this man.
5 Kumbiti womberi wanjiti kulonga kankuwazongiziya, “Kwa mafundu gakuwi kanjiti kutenda ndewu pakati pa wantu woseri mu Yudeya. Kanjiti mu Galilaya na vinu kiza panu.”
And they vociferated, and said: He raiseth disturbance among our people, by teaching in all Judaea, commencing from Galilee, and quite to this place.
6 Pilatu pakapakiniriti aga, kakosiya, “Hashi, muntu ayu ka mwenikaya gwa Galilaya?”
And Pilate, when he heard the name Galilee, inquired if the man were a Galilean.
7 Pakavimaniti handa Yesu kalawiti lushi lwalukolitwimlima na Herodi, su kamjegiti kwa Herodi, ndo mweni yakaweriti mu Yerusalemu shipindi shilii.
And having learned that he was from under Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod; for he was at Jerusalem on those days.
8 Herodi kanemeleriti nentu pakamwoniti Yesu, toziya kapikaniriti kala visoweru vyakuwi, su kaweriti kankuhepera kumwona yomberi kwa shipindi shivuwa. Kaweriti kankutumbira kawoni Yesu pakatenda mauzauza.
And Herod rejoiced greatly when he saw Jesus, for he had been desirous to see him for a long time, because he had heard many things of him, and he hoped to see some sign from him.
9 Su Herodi kamkosiyiti Yesu makosiwu gavuwa, kumbiti Yesu kamwankula ndiri.
And he asked him many questions; but Jesus gave him no reply.
10 Mtambika mkulu gwa numba ya Mlungu na wafunda wa Malagaliru walawiriti pawulongoru, walaviyiti masitaka gawu kwa makakala nentu.
And the chief priests and Scribes stood up, and accused him vehemently.
11 Herodi pamuhera na wanjagila wakuwi, wamwayibishiti Yesu na kumtendera lidufiya, shakapanu wamvalisiya nguwu ya shifalumi, na wamuwuziya kwa Pilatu.
And Herod and his warriors contemned him. And when he had mocked him, he clothed him in a purple robe, and sent him to Pilate.
12 Kwanjira lishaka lilii, Herodi na Pilatu wawera maganja, pamberi pa shipindi shilii waweriti wangondu.
And on that day, Pilate and Herod became friends to each other; for there had previously been enmity between them.
13 Su Pilatu kawashemiti pamuhera, watambika wakulu wa numba ya Mlungu, na walongoziya na wantu
And Pilate called the chief priests and the rulers of the people,
14 kawagambira, “Mumjega muntu ayu kwaneni pamlonga kaweriti kawasongiziya wantu wawulemi ufalumi wa Rumi. Vinu mpikiniri! Pandoliti kala weri shitwatila ashi pawulongolu penu, mona ndiri likosa lyoseri kwa masitaka genu kwakuwi.
and said to them: Ye have brought this man before me, as a disturber of your people; and lo, I have examined him before you, and I find in the man no crime, among all that ye charge upon him.
15 Wala Herodi kawoniti ndiri likosa, su kamuwuziyiti kwa twenga. Kwahera likosa lya kumtenda muntu ayu kahowi.
Neither yet Herod: for I sent him to him, and lo, nothing deserving death hath been done by him.
16 Su hanuwalongeri wamsyatangi viboku, hanumleki kagendi zakuwi.”
I will therefore chastise him, and release him.
17 Kila Mumsambu gwa Pasaka Pilatu kamlekiziyaga mtatilwa yumu pakati pawu.
For it was a custom, that he should release one at the festival.
18 Lipinga lyoseri wabotanga pawalonga, “Gumlagi ayu! Gutuvuguliri Baraba!”
And all the company vociferated, and said: Away with this man; and release to us Barabbas.
19 Baraba wamtuliti mushibetubetu toziya ya kutenda ngondu mlushi lulii, viraa kalagiti wantu.
He was one who had been thrown into prison, on account of a sedition and murder which had occurred in the city.
20 Pilatu kafiriti kumlekeziya Yesu, su katakula kayi nawomberi.
And Pilate, being disposed to release Jesus, conversed with them again.
21 Kumbiti womberi watenditi umatu, “Gumkong'onderi misumali mulupingika! Gumkong'onderi misumali mulupingika!”
But they cried out, and said: Crucify him; crucify him.
22 Pilatu kawagambira mala ya tatu, “Ashi katenda shidoda gaa? Mona ndiri likosa kwakuwi limtendi yomberi wamlagi, su hanumsyatangi viboku, su hanumlekeziyi.”
And he said to them the third time: But, what evil hath he done? I find no crime in him deserving of death. I will scourge him, therefore, and release him.
23 Kumbiti womberi wakazaniti kutenda umatu kwa kubotanga kuwera Yesu mpaka kakong'onderwi misumali mulupingika, na upeleru wawu wa kutenda umatu ukanga.
But they were urgent, with a loud voice; and demanded of him, that they might crucify him.
24 Su Pilatu kaamuwiti ntambu yawafira womberi gatendeki.
And Pilate decreed, that their request be granted.
25 Kamvugulira kulawa mushibetubetu muntu ulii yawamfiriti, ndomweni yawamtuliti mushibetubetu toziya ya ngondu yakuwi na kulaga wantu, su kamlaviyiti Yesu kwa womberi wamtenderi ntambu yawafira.
And he released to them him, who for sedition and murder had been cast into prison, for whom they petitioned; and he delivered up Jesus to their pleasure.
26 Pawaweriti wankumjega, waliwoniti na muntu yumu yawamshema Simoni gwa Kureni, kaweriti kankulawa muisi na kwingira mlushi. Su wambata, wamtwika lupingika lulii kalutoli kumbeli kwa Yesu.
And as they led him away, they seized Simon the Cyrenian, coming from the fields. and laid upon him the cross, to bear it after Jesus.
27 Lipinga likulu lya wantu limfatiti, mngati mwawu waweriti wadala wankudaya na kumlilira.
And there followed after him a great multitude of people; and those women also who wailed and lamented over him.
28 Yesu kawagalambukira, kuwagambira, “Mwenga washina mawu wa Yerusalemu! Namundilira neni, kumbiti mlililiri maweni na wana wenu.
And Jesus turned to them, and said to them: Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me; but weep rather for yourselves, and for your children.
29 Toziya mashaka gankwiza, wantu hawalongi, ‘Mbaka kwa walii wagumba, yawaleriti ndiri ama kunonisiya wana!’
For lo, the days are coming, in which they will say: Happy the barren, and the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.
30 Hashiweri shipindi wantu pawayigambira migongu, ‘Gutuguwiri!’ Na kuvigambira vigongu, ‘Gutugubiki!’
Then will they begin to say to the mountains, Fall upon us! and to the hills, Cover us!
31 Kwa mana, handa wantu wankugutendera mtera gwankali kuyuma ntambu hayi, hayiweri hashi kwa mtera guyuma?”
For if they do these things in a green tree, what will be in the dry?
32 Wawatoliti viraa wantu wamonga wawili, wadoda wawalagi pamuhera na Yesu.
And there went along with him two others, malefactors, to be crucified.
33 Pawasokiti kala pahala pawapashema, “Shipalakasa sha mtuhi,” Yesu ndo wamkong'onderiti misumali mulupingika pamuhera na walii wadoda wawili, yumu uwega wakuwi wa kumliwu na yumu uwega gwakuwi gwa kumshigi.
And when they came to a certain place which is called a Skull, they crucified him there; and the two malefactors, the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.
34 Yesu kalonga, “Tati guwalekeziyi toziya wavimana ndiri vyawatenda.” Shakapanu wagawana nguwu zyakuwi kwa kugalambula simbi.
And Jesus said: Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they divided his garments, casting a lot upon them.
35 Wantu wawagolokiti palii pawamlola. Na walongoziya wamtendera lidufiya pawalonga, “Kawalopoziya wamonga, vinu kalilopoziyi mweni, handa mweni ndo Kristu, msyagula gwa Mlungu!”
And the people stood and looked on; and the rulers also derided him, and said: He quickened others; let him quicken himself, if he is the Messiah, the chosen of God.
36 Wanjagira wamtenderiti vira lidufiya, wamgenderiti wamupa icheshema
And the soldiers like wise mocked him, coming to him and offering him vinegar,
37 pawalonga, “Handa nakaka gwenga ndo Mfalumi gwa Wayawudi, gulilopoziyi gumweni.”
and saying to him: If thou art the king of the Jews, quicken thyself.
38 Vira vilii malembu aga wagatula kumpindi kwakuwi, “Ayu ndo Mfalumi gwa Wayawudi.”
And there was likewise a superscription over him, written in Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
39 Yumu gwa walii wadoda yawakong'onderitwi misumali palupinjika, kamwigilanga Yesu pakalonga, “Hashi, yanakaka ndiri gwenga ndo Kristu? Su gulilopoziyi gumweni, gutulopoziyi na twenga vira.”
And one of the malefactors who were crucified with him, reproached him, and said: If thou art the Messiah, rescue thyself, and rescue us.
40 Kumbiti mdoda gwingi ulii kamkalipira muyaguwi pakalonga, “Gwenga gumtira ndiri Mlungu ata padidini? Gwenga gupata azabu iraa ayi.
But his fellow Malefactor rebuked him, said to him: Art thou not afraid even of God, seeing thou art under the same sentence?
41 Gwenga na neni tustahili, mana aga ndo malipu ya galii gatutenditi. Kumbiti muntu ayu katenda ndiri shidoda shoseri.”
And we justly; for we have a retribution according to our deserts, and according to our deeds; but nothing hateful hath been done by him.
42 Shakapanu kalonga, “Gwenga Yesu! Gunholi shipindi pagwingira muufalumi waku.”
And he said to Jesus: My Lord, remember me, when thou comest into thy kingdom.
43 Yesu kamwankula, Nukugambira nakaka, lelu haguweri pamuhera na neni muparadisu.
Jesus said to him: Verily I say to you, That this day thou shalt be with me in paradise.
44 Iweriti yapata saa sita paliwala, mshenji guleka kuwala, luwindu lugubikiti muisi yoseri mpaka saa tisa,
And it was about the sixth hour; and darkness was over all the land, until the ninth hour.
45 lipaziya lya numba nkulu ya Mlungu lipantika vipandi viwili.
And the sun was darkened, and the curtain of the door of the temple was rent through its middle.
46 Yesu kalila kwa liziwu likulu, Tati, mumawoku gaku nuyitula rohu yangu. Pakalongiti hangu kahowa.
And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and said: My Father, into thy hand I commit my spirit. Thus he spake, and expired.
47 Paliya, mkulu gwa wanjagila pakawoniti kala galii gatendikiti kamkwisa Mlungu pakalonga, “Nakaka ayu kaweriti muntu muheri.”
And when the centurion saw what occurred, he glorified God and said: Certainly, this was a righteous man.
48 Wantu woseri walii waweriti wajojinika toziya ya shitwatila ashi, pawawoniti galiya gatendikiti, wawuyiti ukaya kwawu pawahinginitiki.
And all the multitudes who had assembled at this spectacle, on seeing what occurred, returned, smiting upon their breasts.
49 Waganja wakuwi pamuhera na wadala walii wamfatiti kulawa Galilaya, wagolokiti kwa kutali kulola shitwatila shiliya.
And there were standing at a distance, all they that knew Jesus, and those women who came with him from Galilee; and they beheld these things.
50 Kuweriti na muntu yumu litawu lyakuwi Yosefu, mwenikaya gwa shijiji shimu sha Wayawudi shawashishema Arimatayu. Kaweriti muntu muheri yakapananwa ligoya.
And there was a certain man, whose name was Joseph, a counsellor, from Ramath a city of Judaea, who was a good man and righteous;
51 Kaweriti muntu yakashemitwi Yosefu kulawa Arimatayu mlushi lwa Yudeya. Kaweriti muntu mheri na yakapananwa ligoya, kaweriti kankuhepera kwiza kwa ufalumi wa Mlungu. Tembera kaweriti Mjumbi gwa shyoteramotu shikulu sha Wayawudi, kajimiliti ndiri nawomberi majimiranu na matendu gawu.
and he had not consented to their decision and deed; and he was waiting for the kingdom of God.
52 Yomberi kagenditi kwa Pilatu, kaluwa kamupi nshimba ya Yesu.
This man went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.
53 Su kasulusiya nshimba ilii kulawa mulupingika, kayizyengititi sanda ya shitani, kayitula mulipumba lyaliweriti walisongola mulitalawu, lyeni alyenitenderwi.
And he took it down, and wrapped it in a winding-sheet of linen; and laid it in an excavated sepulchre, in which no one had hitherto been laid.
54 Lishaka lilii liweriti Ijumaa, na matandiru ga lishaka lya kwoyera liweriti lyankuyanja.
And it was the day of preparation, and the sabbath began to dawn.
55 Wadala walii waweriti wafatana na Yesu kulawa Galilaya wamfatiti Yosefu, waliwona lipumba lilii ntambu yawatula nshimba yakuwi.
And those women who came with him from Galilee, approached, and viewed the sepulchre, and the manner in which the body was deposited.
56 Shakapanu wawuyiti ukaya, watanditi uturi na malashi ga kuswaga nshimba ya Yesu. Lishaka lya kwoyera woyeriti gambira malagaliru gaamuwiti.
And they returned, and prepared perfumes and aromatics; and they rested on the sabbath, as it is commanded.
