Matayu 27
1 Mandawira putiputi watambika wakulu woseri na wazewi waliwoniti pamuhera watenditi mpangu gwa kumlaga Yesu.
When it was morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people have consulted against Jesus, how they might procure his death,
2 Womberi wamtawa pingu na wamjega kwa Pilatu mkulu gwa mkowa yakasyagulitwi na mlongoziya gwa sirikali ya Rumi.
conducted him bound to Pontius Pilate, the procurator, to whom they delivered him up.
3 Yuda mgalambuka, pakawoniti kuwera Yesu wamtoza kala, yomberi moyu gumtamiti nentu na kawawuzilira watambika wakulu pamuhera na wazewi magwala malongu matatu galii ga mpiya.
Then Judas, who had betrayed him, finding that he was condemned, repented; and returning the thirty shekels to the chief priests and the elders,
4 Kalonga, “Neni ntenda vidoda kwa kumgalambuka muntu yakahera likosa, wamlagi!” Womberi wamwankula, “Gatuwusu shishi twenga? Aga ndo gaku gumweni!”
said, I have sinner, in that I have betrayed the innocent. They answered, What is that to us? See you to that.
5 Yuda kaziyasa mpiya zilii Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, kalawa kunja kagenda kulilaga mulugoyi.
After which, having thrown down the money in the temple, he went away, and strangled himself.
6 Watambika wakulu wazitola mpiya zilii na walonga, “Azi ndo mpiya zya mwazi na ifaa ndiri kuzitula mluhanja lwa Numba nkulu ya Mlungu.”
The chief priests taking the money, said, It is not lawful to put it into the sacred treasury, because it is the price of blood.
7 Pawajimilirana kala kuusu mpiya azi, womberi wazitumiya kuhemera lirambu lya ukaka, liweri pahala pa kusilira wahenga.
But, after deliberating, they bought with it the potter's field, to be a burying place for strangers,
8 Ndo mana mpaka leru lirambu ali walishema, “Lirambu lya Mwazi.”
for which reason that field is, to this day, called, The Field of Blood.
9 Su visoweru vyakatakuliti Yeremiya mbuyi gwa Mlungu vitendeki, “Watoliti magwala malongu matatu ga mpiya, shyasi sha wantu wa Israeli wapangiti kumlipira yomberi,
Then was the word of Jeremiah the Prophet verified, "The thirty shekels, the price at which he was valued, I took, as the Lord appointed me, from the sons of Israel,
10 na wahemelera lirambu la ukaka, Mtuwa ntambu yakanagaliriti.”
who gave them for the potter's field.
11 Yesu wamgolosiyiti palongolu pa mkulu gwa mkowa, ndomweni yakamkosiyiti. Su Pilatu kamkosiya, “Hashi, gwenga ndo mfalumi gwa Wayawudi?” Yesu kamwankula, “Gwenga gulonga.”
Now Jesus appeared before the procurator, who questioned him, saying, You are the King of the Jews? He answered, You say right.
12 Kumbiti Yesu kankula ndiri shintu, watambika wakulu na wazewi pawaweriti wankumsitaki.
But when he was arraigned by the chief priests and the elders, he made no reply.
13 Su Pilatu kamkosiya, “Hashi, gupikinira ndiri masitaka goseri aga gawalaviya kwa gwenga?”
Then Pilate said to him, Do you not hear of how many crimes they accuse you?
14 Kumbiti Yesu kawankula ndiri ata shisoweru shimu, ata mkulu gwa mkowa ayu kalikangasha nentu.
But he answered not one word, which surprised the procurator exceedingly.
15 Iweriti shitiba shawu mushipindi sha msambu gwa Pasaka mkulu gwa mkowa kumvugulira mtatirwa yumu yawamfiriti.
Now the procurator was accustomed to release, at the festival, any one of the prisoners whom the multitude demanded.
16 Shipindi ashi kuweriti na muntu yumu yakamanikaniti nentu yawamtatiriti mushibetubetu litawu lyakuwi Baraba.
And they had then a famous prisoners named Barabbas.
17 Su wantu pawaliwoniti pamuhera, Pilatu kawakosiya, “Mfira numulaviyi yoshi pakati pa awili awa, Baraba ama Yesu yawamshema Kristu Mlopoziya?”
Therefore. when they were assembled, Pilate said to them, Whom shall I release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Messiah?
18 Yomberi kavimaniti weri kuwera walongoziya wa Shiyawudi wamjegiti Yesu kwakuwi kwajili ya weya.
(For he perceived that through envy they had delivered him up;
19 Pilatu pakaweriti kalivaga pashigoda sha kutoza, mdala gwakuwi kamjegeriti ujumbi, “Naguliyingiziya mulisitaka lya muntu ayu muheri, toziya leru ntabika nentu mukulota kuusu yomberi.”
besides, while he was sitting on the tribunal, his wife sent him this message, Have nothing to do with this innocent person; for today, I have suffered much in a dream, on his account.)
20 Watambika wakulu na wazewi waligambiriti lipinga lya wantu wamluwi Baraba wamvuguliri na Yesu wamlagi.
But the chief priests and elders instigated the populace to demand Barabbas, and cause Jesus to be executed.
21 Kumbiti Pilatu kalikosiya lipinga lya wantu, “Hashi, yoshi pakati pa wawili awa yamfira nukuvugulirani?” Womberi wamwankula, “Baraba!”
Therefore, when the procurator asked, which of the two he should release, they all answered, Barabbas.
22 Pilatu kawakosiya, “Vinu ntendi ashashi kuusu Yesu yawamshema Kristu Mlopoziya?” Woseri wamwankula, “Gumpingiki mulupingika!”
Pilate replied, What then shall I do with Jesus, whom they call Messiah? They all answered, Let him be crucified.
23 Kumbiti Pilatu kakosiya, “Hashi, yomberi katenda likosa gaa?” Shakapanu womberi wanjiti kushowangana, “Wampingiki mlupingika!”
The procurator said, Why? What evil has he done? But they cried the louder, saying, Let him be crucified.
24 Pilatu pakawoniti kuwera kafanikiwa ndiri shoseri na kwana vidoda viweriti vyankwanja katoliti mashi na kaganaviya mawoku gakuwi palongolu pa lipinga lya wantu na kalonga, “Neni nahera lawama kuhowa kwa muntu ayu. Na shitwatila ashi mtendi maweni.”
Pilate perceiving that he was so far from prevailing, that they grew more tumultuous, took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am guiltless of the blood of this innocent person. See you to it.
25 Lipinga lyoseri lya wantu limwankula, “Mwazi gwakuwi guweri kwa twenga na kwa wananguta wetu.”
And all the people answering, said, His blood be upon us, and upon your children.
26 Shakapanu Pilatu kamvugulira Baraba kulawa mushibetubetu, kumbiti Yesu pawamsyatanga kala ntomondu, kamlaviyiti wampingiki mulupingika.
Then he released Barabbas to them, and having caused Jesus to be scourged, delivered him up to be crucified.
27 Shakapanu wanjagila wa Pilatu wamtola Yesu wamwingiziya mumakawu makulu ga numba zya wanjagila wa Shirumi na wamjojinikira shipinga shoseri.
After this, the procurator's soldiers took Jesus into the pretorium, where they gathered around him all the band.
28 Wamvula nguwu zyakuwi na wamvalisiya lihabiti lya langi nsheri.
And having stripped him, they robed him in a scarlet cloak,
29 Su wapota lijenjeri lya misontu na wamvalisiya mumtuwi mwakuwi na wamtulira ludenki muliwoku lyakuwi lya kumliwu na wasuntama palongolu pakuwi na wamtendera lijonga. Womberi wamlamsiya, “Mwika Mfalumi gwa Wayawudi.”
and crowned him with a wreath of thorns, and put a rod in his right hand, and kneeling before him in mockery. cried, Hail, King of the Jews!
30 Wamtemera mata na walutola ludenki lulii na wamkoma nalu mumtuwi.
And spitting upon him, they took the rod and struck him with it on the head.
31 Pawamaliriti kala kumtendera lijonga, wamvula lihabiti lilii na wamvalisiya nguwu zakuwi. Su wamjega yomberi kumpinjika mulupingika.
When they had mocked him, they disrobed him again, and having put his own raiment on him, led him away to crucify him.
32 Pawaweriti wankugenda wamwona muntu yumu litawu lyakuwi Simoni yakalawiriti lushi lwa Kureni na wanjagila wamlazimisha kulutola lupingika lwa Yesu.
As they went out of the city, they met one Simon, a Cyrenian, whom they constrained to carry the cross;
33 Pawasokiti pahala pawapashema Goligota, mana yakuwi, “Pahala pa vipalakasa vya mtuwi.”
and being arrived at a place called Golgotha, which signifies a Place of Skulls,
34 Wamupa muhanganu gwa Divayi na mtera gukaripa, kumbuti Yesu pakailawaliriti kalema kulanda.
they gave him to drink, vinegar mixed with wormwood, which, having tasted, he would not drink.
35 Wampingika mulupingika, shakapanu waligawirana nguwu zyakuwi kwa kugalambula simbi.
After they had nailed him to the cross, they parted his garments by lot.
36 Pa aga walivaga panu waweriti wankumlolera.
And having sat down there, they guarded him.
37 Pampindi pa mtuwi gwakuwi mulupingika watula lisitaka limwusu yomberi lyawalembiti, “Ayu ndo Yesu, Mfalumi gwa Wayawudi.”
And over his head they placed this inscription, denoting the cause of his death: THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 Shakapanu wawapingika wakwepula wawili pamuhera na Yesu, yumu uwega wa kumshigi kwakuwi na yumonga uwega wa kumliwu kwakuwi.
Two robbers also were crucified with him, one at his right hand, and the other at his left.
39 Wantu yawaweriti wankupita pahala paliya wamwigilanga Yesu na kutikisiya mituwi yawu pawalonga,
Meanwhile the passengers reviled him, shaking their heads,
40 “Gwenga gulitumbiti kuyibomolanga Numba nkulu ya Mlungu na kuinyawa kwa mashaka matatu! Vinu gulilopoziyi gumweni handa gwenga gwa Mwana gwa Mlungu, su gusuluki palupingika!”
and saying, You who could demolish the temple, and rebuild it in three days; if you be God's Son, come down from the cross.
41 Ntambu iraa ayi watambika wakulu na wafunda wa Malagaliru na wazewi wamtendiriti lijonga,
The chief priests also, with the scribes and elders, deriding him, said,
42 “Kawalopoziyiti wamonga, kumbuti kasinda kulipoziya mweni! Hashi, yomberi mfalumi ndiri gwa Israeli? Vinu kasuluki palupingika na twenga hatumjimiri.
He saved others: can he not save himself? If he be King of Israel, let him now descend from the cross, and we will believe him.
43 Kamtumbiliti Mlungu na kutakula eti yomberi ndo Mwana gwa Mlungu. Su tuleki tumloli Mlungu kamlopoziyi handa kamfira nakaka!”
He trusted in God. Let God deliver him now, if he regard him; for he called himself God's Son.
44 Ntambu iraa ayi na wakwepula walii yawawapingikiti pamuhera na Yesu wamuhigiranga viraa.
The robbers too, his fellow-sufferers, upbraided him in the same manner.
45 Kwanjira saa sita mpaka saa tisa paliwala, pasipanu poseri paweriti na ntiti masaa matatu.
Now from the sixth hour to the ninth, the whole land was in darkness.
46 Payiweriti saa tisa Yesu kalira kwa liziwu likulu, “Eloyi, Eloyi lama sabakitani?” Mana yakuwi, “Mlungu gwangu, Mlungu gwangu iwera ashi gundeka?”
About the ninth hour, Jesus cried aloud, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabacthani? that is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
47 Wantu wamu yawagolokiti palii pawapikaniriti hangu, walonga, “Kankumshema Eliya!”
Some of the bystanders hearing this, said, He calls Elijah.
48 Yumu gwawu katuga katola lidodoki, kalijwika mudivayi isheshema, kayitula mulupeleru lwa ludenki na wajera kumupa yomberi kalandi.
Instantly one of them ran, brought a sponge, and soaked it in vinegar, and having fastened it to a stick, presented it to him to drink.
49 Kumbiti wamonga walonga, “Guheperi, tuloli handa Eliya kankwiza kumlopoziya!”
The rest said, Forbear, we shall see whether Elijah will come to save him.
50 Yesu kalira kayi kwa liziwu likulu, su kahowa.
Jesus having again cried with a loud voice, resigned his spirit.
51 Shakapanu lipaziya lya Numba nkulu ya Mlungu lyalilekaniziya pahala pananagala nentu, lidegeka vipandi viwili kulawa kunani mpaka pasi. Pasipanu pabegiziwa na matalawu gapantika,
And, behold, the vail of the temple was rent in two from top to bottom, the earth trembled, and the rocks split.
52 na mapumba gagubutuka na wantu wa Mlungu wavuwa yawahowiti wawazyukusiwa.
Graves also burst open; and after his resurrection, the bodies of several saints who slept were raised,
53 Womberi walawa mumapumba na Yesu pakazyukiti kala kulawa kwa wahowiti, womberi wagenditi Yerusalemu lushi lunanagala, wawonikaniti na wantu wavuwa.
came out of the graves, went into the holy city, and were seen by many.
54 Mkulu gwa wawanjagila na wanjagila yawaweriti wankumlolera Yesu, wawoniti kubegiziwa pasipanu na vitwatira vyoseri vyavilawiriti, watiriti nentu na walonga, “Nakaka muntu ayu kaweriti Mwana gwa Mlungu!”
Now the centurion, and they who, with him, guarded Jesus, observing the earthquake, and what passed, were exceedingly terrified, and said, This was certainly the son of a god.
55 Kuweriti na wadala wavuwa palii, pawalola kwa kutali. Wadala awa ndo walii yawamfatiti Yesu kulawa Galilaya na wamtangiti.
Several women also were there, looking on at a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, assisting him with their service.
56 Pakati pawu paweriti Mariya Magidalena na Mariya mawu gwa Yakobu na mlongu gwakuwi yawamshema Yosefu, pamuhera na mdala gwa Zebedayu.
Among them were Mary the Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's sons.
57 Payiweriti pamihi, kiziti muntu yumu kalunda mwenikaya gwa Arimatayu litawu lyakuwi Yosefu na yomberi kaweriti mfundwa gwa Yesu.
In the evening a rich Arimathean named Joseph, who was himself a disciple of Jesus,
58 Kamgenderiti Pilatu na kaluwa mawuti ga Yesu. Pilatu kalagalira wamupi Yosefu mawuti galii.
went to Pilate and begged the body of Jesus. Pilate having given orders to deliver it to Joseph,
59 Su Yosefu katola mawuti galii, kagatindiziya sanda iherepa,
he took the body, wrapped it in clean linen,
60 na Kagatula mulipumba lya mpanga lyakuwi, lyakalisongoliti palitalawu. Su kalibiringa litalawu likulu pamlyangu gwa lipumba na kagenda zyakuwi.
and deposited it in his own tomb, which he had newly caused to be hewn in the rock; and having rolled a great stone to the entrance, he went away.
61 Mariya Magidalena na Mariya gwingi ulii yawaweriti walivaga palii pawalola lipumba.
Now Mary the Magdalene, and the other Mary were there, sitting over against the sepulcher.
62 Shirawu yakuwi, lishaka lya Kwoyera, watambika wakulu na Mafalisayu wamgendiriti Pilatu,
On the morrow, being the day of preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees repaired in a body to Pilate,
63 na walonga, “Mtuwa, tulihola kuwera mpayu ulii katakuliti pamberi pa kuhowa kwakuwi kalongiti, ‘Pa mashaka matatu hanzyuki.’
and said, My lord, we remember that this impostor, when alive, said, Within three days I shall be raised.
64 Su gulagaliri lipumba lyakuwi waliloleri weri mpaka lishaka lya tatu, su wafundwa wakuwi hapeni wawezi kwiza kugatola mauti gakuwi na kuwagambira wantu kuwera kazyuka. Kupayira aku hakuweri kudoda kuliku kupayira kwa kwanja.”
Command, therefore, that the sepulcher be guarded till the third day, lest his disciples come and steal him, and say to the people, He is raised from the dead; for this last imposture would prove worse than the first.
65 Pilatu kawagambira, “Muwatoli walolera, mgendi na kulolera lipumba ntambu yamuweza.”
Pilate answered, You have a guard; make the sepulcher as secure as you can.
66 Su wagenda na kulolera lipumba walimatira litalawu na kuwaleka wanjagila waloleri.
Accordingly they went and secured it, sealing the stone, and posting guards.
