Yohana 18
1 O Yesu nayanga enongwa ezi, asogoye na bhanafunzi bhakwe ahwenyezye entebha ye Kidron, hwa hwali ne bustani, huula omwene na bhanafunzi bhakwe bhahinjila muhati yakwe.
After offering this prayer Jesus went out with His disciples to a place on the further side of the Ravine of the Cedars, where there was a garden which He entered--Himself and His disciples.
2 Esheshi ola oYuda, wahanzaga ahugalushe, wope aimenye eshemu eyo, afuatanaje oYesu abhalaga husehemu ela mara hahinji abhalaga na bhanafunzi bhakwe.
Now Judas also, who at that very time was betraying Him, knew the place, for Jesus had often resorted there with His disciples.
3 Wope oYuda, nawapata ikundi lya sikari na maofisa afume hwa gosi adimi bhahenza ne tala, ikurunzi ne silaha.
So Judas, followed by the battalion and by a detachment of the Temple police sent by the High Priests and Pharisees, came there with torches and lamps and weapons.
4 Wope oYesu, ohu amenye shila hantu hahali habhombeha zaidi yakwe ahwifumizye hwitazi na abhabhozya, “Wenu wamuhumwanza?”
Jesus therefore, knowing all that was about to befall Him, went out to meet them. "Who are you looking for?" He asked them.
5 Wope wajile, oYesu Mnazareti.” O Yesu abhabhozya, “Ane nene” Wope oYuda wagalushe oYesu ahali ayemeleye na asikari bhala.
"For Jesus the Nazarene," was the answer. "I am he," He replied. (Now Judas who was betraying Him was also standing with them.)
6 Eshi eshi embabhozya, “Ane nene” bhawela shingunga bhagwa pansi.
As soon then as He said to them, "I am he," they went backwards and fell to the ground.
7 Wabhabhozya nantele, “Wenu wa muhumwanza? Bhope waga nantele “oYesu Munazareti.”
Again therefore He asked them, "Who are you looking for?" "For Jesus the Nazarene," they said.
8 O Yesu wabhobhozya, “Embabhozezye aje ana nene; eshi nkashe munaanza ane, bhaleshi ebha abhnje bhabhalaje.”
"I have told you," replied Jesus, "that I am he. If therefore you are looking for me, let these my disciples go their way."
9 Ega gali esho aje lila izu likamilishe; pala nayangaga; hwa bhala bhohampiye, senatezizye hata weka.”
He made this request in order that the words He had spoken might be fulfilled, "As for those whom Thou hast given me, I have not lost one."
10 O Simoni Petro, waali ni panga, wega nahudumule ikutu lya hundeelo oboyi wa Dimi ogosi. Ni tawa lyakwe oboyi ola ali yo Malko.
Simon Peter, however, having a sword, drew it, and, aiming at the High Priest's servant, cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.
11 O Yesu abhozya oPetro, “Wezya ipanga lyaho hu ala yakwe. Yenu ensamwelee eshikombe shila shampiye oDaada?”
Jesus therefore said to Peter, "Put back your sword. Shall I refuse to drink the cup of sorrow which the Father has given me to drink?"
12 Eshi lila ikundi lya skari na jemedari, na boyi bha Yahudi, bhakhata oYesu na hupinye.
So the battalion and their tribune and the Jewish police closed in, and took Jesus and bound Him.
13 Wope walongola nasoti pa hwa Anasi, amwane ali khoi wa Kayaafa, ola wali wa Dimi ogosi omwaha ogwo.
They then brought Him to Annas first; for Annas was the father-in-law of Caiaphas who was High Priest that year.
14 O Kayafa wabhapiye oushauri Ayahudi yahanziwaga aje omuntu omo afwe husababu ya bhantu.
(It was this Caiaphas who had advised the Jews, saying, "It is to your interest that one man should die for the People.")
15 O Simoni oPetro alondoleye oYesu, na shesho omwanafunzi wamwabho. Nola omwanafunzi ali afamahamiha hwa dimi ogosi, wope ahinjila pandwemo no Yesu mwibehewa ilya Chungaji ogosi;
Meanwhile Simon Peter was following Jesus, and so also was another disciple. The latter was known to the High Priest, and went in with Jesus into the court of the High Priest's palace.
16 o Petro ali ayemeleye honze hu ndiango. Ola omwanafunzi wa manyishe hwa dimi ogosi, afumile honze abhala ayanje nola oshe oboyi waalindaga ondiango na humwinjizye oPetro.
But Peter remained standing outside the door, till the disciple who was acquainted with the High Priest came out and induced the portress to let Peter in.
17 Ola oboyi walindaga ondiango, abhozezye oPetro, “Aje awe solo pandwemo na bhantu bha muntu ono?” Wope ajile, “Ane wenje.”
This led the girl, the portress, to ask Peter, "Are you also one of this man's disciples?" "No, I am not," he replied.
18 Na bhala aboyi bha gosi bhahemeleye apantu pala; bhapembile omwoto afuatanaje hwali isasa, na shesho bhali bhahwota omwoto aje apate ilyoto. Wope oPetro ali nabho, ahwote omwoto ali ayemeleye.
Now because it was cold the servants and the police had lighted a charcoal fire, and were standing and warming themselves; and Peter too remained with them, standing and warming himself.
19 Odimi ogosi abhozezye oYesu ahusu abhanafunzi bhakwe ne nsambelezyo zyakwe.
So the High Priest questioned Jesus about His disciples and His teaching.
20 O Yesu ajile, “Enjebho zyezye pazelu ensi; Ane na sambelezezye wilawila mshibhanza na pantu pala Ayahudi pabhabhonganaga. Nane senayanjile lyalyonti.
"As for me," replied Jesus, "I have spoken openly to the world. I have continually taught in some synagogue or in the Temple where all the Jews are wont to assemble, and I have said nothing in secret.
21 Yenu mwabhozezyaga? Bhabhozyaji ahusu hala hanayanjile. Ebha abhantu bhamenye amambo gananjile.
Why do you question me? Question those who heard what it was I said to them: these witnesses here know what I said."
22 O Yesu nahayanga ezyo, omo wa gosi ali ayemeleye wa khoma oYesu hu khono ogwakwe na pamande waga, “Esho, shashi hwanziwa ahugamule odimi ogosi?”
Upon His saying this, one of the officers standing by struck Him with his open hand, asking Him as he did so, "Is that the way you answer the High Priest?"
23 Wope oYesu ajile, “Nkashe enjanjile enongwa zyazyonti embibhi obhe keti hwego amabhibhi, na nkashe egomoye shinza yenu ekhomwa?
"If I have spoken wrongly," replied Jesus, "bear witness to it as wrong; but if rightly, why that blow?"
24 O Anasi atwala oYesu hwa Kayafa hwa chungaji ogosi ali afungulwe.
So Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas the High Priest.
25 O Simoni oPetro ali ayemeleye wahwikosya ilyoto yoyo. Bhala abhantu bhabhozya. “Aje, awe nawe soli pandwemo na bhanafunzi bhakwe?” Wakhana waga, “Ane weenje.”
But Simon Peter remained standing and warming himself, and this led to their asking him, "Are you also one of his disciples?" He denied it, and said, "No, I am not."
26 Omo omo waboyi bhachungaji ogosi, waali holo wa lume waadulwe ikutu, ajile, “Se wewe elolile hula hu bustani?”
One of the High Priest's servants, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, said, "Did I not see you in the garden with him?"
27 O Petro akhana nantele, na Ehanda ahekuga.
Once more Peter denied it, and immediately a cock crowed.
28 Bhahamwega oYesu afume hwa Kayafa paka hu Praitorio. Hwali shapwiti na mazansha. Abhene bhebho sebhahinjiye ePraitorio bhasiye ahwiyonvwe ailye epasaka.
So they brought Jesus from Caiaphas's house to the Praetorium. It was the early morning, and they would not enter the Praetorium themselves for fear of defilement, and in order that they might be able to eat the Passover.
29 O Pilato abhabhalilia ahayanga. “Ahaga listako bhole lyalihuhusu omuntu ono?”
Accordingly Pilate came out to them and inquired, "What accusation have you to bring against this man?"
30 Bhayanga na hubhozye, “Nkashe ono muntu agalisebhomba mbibhi, handa setiletile huliwe.”
"If the man were not a criminal," they replied, "we would not have handed him over to you."
31 O Pilato abhabhozya, “Mweji amwe mwemwe, mulonje alengane nendijizyo zyenyu bhope.” Ayahudi bhabhozya, “Endajizyo sezitibhozya abude omuntu wawonti.”
"Take him yourselves," said Pilate, "and judge him by your Law." "We have no power," replied the Jews, "to put any man to death."
32 Bhayanjile ezi aje izu lya Yesu likamilishe izu lya ayanjile ahusu enfwa yakwe.
They said this that the words might be fulfilled in which Jesus predicted the kind of death He was to die.
33 O Pilato ahinjila nantele hu Praitorio akwizya oYesu; ahabhozya, “Aje, awe oli mwene wa Ayahudi?”
Re-entering the Praetorium, therefore, Pilate called Jesus and asked Him, "Are you the King of the Jews?"
34 O Yesu ajile, “Aje, awe ombozya ni swali eli ohwanza amanye au afuatanaje bhatumile aje ombozye ane?”
"Do you say this of yourself, or have others told it you about me?" replied Jesus.
35 Wope oPilato ajile, “Ane sendi Yahudi, aje seshashesho?” Ikabela lyenyu no chungaji ogosi ebho bhabhaletile huline; awe obhombile yenu?
"Am I a Jew?" exclaimed Pilate; "it is your own nation and the High Priests who have handed you over to me. What have you done?"
36 O Yesu ajile; oumwene wane sewamu omu, nkashe oumwene wane ugaali wa munsi omu aboyi bhane handa bhahomaniye waganje anfume hwa Yahudi. Lyoli oumwene wane seufuma epa” Pansi
"My kingdom," replied Jesus, "does not belong to this world. If my kingdom did belong to this world, my subjects would have resolutely fought to save me from being delivered up to the Jews. But, as a matter of fact, my kingdom has not this origin."
37 O Pilato abhozya, “Aje awe eshi oli mwene?” O Yesu ajile, “awe shili shoyanga aje ane endi mwene, afuatana neshi napepwe alenganeshi ane enenzele munsi aje embe keti weela elyoli. Wawonti waali neyo elyoli elitejezya izu lyane.
"So then you are a king!" rejoined Pilate. "Yes," said Jesus, "you say truly that I am a king. For this purpose I was born, and for this purpose I have come into the world--to give testimony for the truth. Every one who is a friend of the truth listens to my voice."
38 O Pilato abhozya, “Elyoli yenu?” Wope nayanga ego ahabhala hwa Yahudi na bhabhozye “Selola nkahamo hwa muntu ono.
"What is truth?" said Pilate. But no sooner had he spoken the words than he went out again to the Jews and told them, "I find no crime in him.
39 Amwe mulinoutamaduni wamubhomba emwegulile ofungwa omo owakati we Pasaka. Aje muhwanza aje embigulile omwene wa Yahudi.”
But you have a custom that I should release one prisoner to you at the Passover. So shall I release to you the King of the Jews?"
40 Bhahomile ekelele bhaile, sio ono, tigulile oBaraba.” Wope oBaraba alifyozi.
With a roar of voices they again cried out, saying, "Not this man, but Barabbas!" Now Barabbas was a robber.
