Johane 19
1 Mme Pilatwe a fatola mokwatla wa ga Jesu ka thupa,
Then therefore Pilate took Jesus and scourged him.
2 mme masole a loga serwalo sa mitlwa a se mo rwesa mo tlhogong a bo a mo apesa seaparo se se bohibidu jo bo mokgona.
And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and put on him a purple robe, and approached him
3 Ba mo sotla ba re, “Dumela, Kgosi ya Bajuta!” Ba bo ba mo itaya ka mabole.
and said, Hail, king of the Jews! and they gave him blows on the face.
4 Pilatwe tswela kwa ntle gape mme a raya Bajuta a re, “Ke ya go mo ntshetsa kwa ntle kwa go lona jaanong, mme legale tlhaloganyang sentle gore nna ga ke mmone molato.”
Again Pilate went forth, and saith to them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find nothing criminal in him.
5 Mme Jesu a tswela kwa ntle a rwele serwalo sa mitlwa a bile a apere seaparo se se bohibidu jo bo mokgona. Mme Pilatwe a re, “Bonang monna yo!”
Jesus therefore came forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And [[Pilate]] saith to them, Behold the man!
6 Erile fela fa ba mmona, ditlhogo tsa baperesiti le bagolwane ba Sejuta ba simolola go goa ba re, “A a bapolwe! A a bapolwe!” Pilatwe a re, “Mmapoleng lona, nna ga ke mmone molato.”
When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify! crucify! Pilate saith to them, Take him yourselves, and crucify him; for I find nothing criminal in him.
7 Mme ba mo fetola ba re, “Ka melao ya rona o tshwanetse go swa gonne o ipiditse Morwa Modimo.”
The Jews answered him, We have a law, and according to the law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.
8 Erile fa Pilatwe a utlwa ba bua jalo, a tshoga thata go gaisa malatsi otlhe.
When Pilate therefore heard this, he was the more afraid;
9 A busetsa Jesu kwa kgotleng ya tshekelo a mmotsa a re, “O tswa kae?” Mme Jesu a seka a ntsha karabo epe.
and went again into the palace, and saith to Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.
10 Mme Pilatwe a re, “A ga o batle go bua le nna? A ga o lemoge gore ke na le nonofo ya go go golola kgotsa go go bapola?”
Pilate saith to him, Dost thou not speak to me? Dost thou not know that I have power to release thee, and have power to crucify thee?
11 Mme Jesu a re, “O ka bo o sena nonofo epe gotlhelele mo go nna fa o ne o sa e newa e tswa kwa godimo. Mme ba ba ntlisitseng kwa go wena ba na le sebe se segolo.”
Jesus answered, Thou wouldst have no power against me, unless it had been given thee from above; for this cause he that delivered me up to thee hath the greater sin.
12 Mme Pilatwe a leka go mo golola, mme baeteledipele ba Sejuta ba mo raya ba re, “Fa o golola monna yo, ga o tsala ya ga Kaesara. Le fa e le mang yo o ipitsang gore ke Kgosi o tlhabana le Kaesara.”
From this time Pilate sought to release him. But the Jews cried out, saying, If thou release this man, thou art not a friend of Caesar. Every one that maketh himself a king, setteth himself against Caesar.
13 Erile Pilatwe a utlwa mafoko a, a ntshetsa Jesu kwa ntle gape kwa go bone mme a nna mo setilong sa tshekelo mo bonnong jo bo dirilweng ka matlapa.
When therefore Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down on the judgment-seat, in a place called the Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha.
14 E ne jaanong e ka nna motshegare wa sethoboloko pele ga letsatsi la Tlolaganyo. Mme Pilatwe a raya Bajuta a re, “Kgosi ya lona ke e!”
Now it was the preparation of the passover. It was about the sixth hour. And he saith to the Jews, Behold your king!
15 Mme ba goa ba re, “A a ye koo, A a ye koo, mmapole!” Pilatwe a re, “Lwa reng? Ke bapole Kgosi ya lona? Baperesiti ba bagolo ba goa ba re, Ga re na kgosi epe fa se Kaesara.”
Upon this they cried out, Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him! Pilate saith to them, Shall I crucify your king? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.
16 Mme Pilatwe a ba neela Jesu gore a bapolwe.
Then therefore he delivered him up to them to be crucified. They therefore took Jesus;
17 Jalo Jesu lwa bofelo a tsenngwa mo diatleng tsa bone, mme a tseelwa kwa ntle ga motse, a itshikaretse mokgoro a isiwa kwa lefelong le le bidiwang “Logata.” Ka Sehebera le bidiwa “Gologotha.”
and bearing his own cross, he went forth into the place called Place of a Skull; in Hebrew, Golgotha;
18 Ba feta ba mmapola le ba bangwe teng koo ba le babedi, yo mongwe a bapolwa ka fa letsogong la gagwe la molema, yo mongwe ka fa go la moja, Jesu a le fa gare ga bone.
where they crucified him, and with him two others, one on each side, and Jesus in the midst.
19 Mme Pilatwe a baya sesupo fa godimo ga ga Jesu se se balegang jaana, “JESU WA NASARETHA, KGOSI YA BAJUTA.”
And Pilate wrote an inscription also, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, “Jesus the Nazarene, the king of the Jews.”
20 Lefelo le Jesu a bapoletsweng mo go lone le ne le le gaufi le motse; mme sesupo se ne se kwadilwe ka Selatina le Segerika, gore batho ba le bantsi ba tle ba kgone go se bala.
This inscription therefore was read by many of the Jews; for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.
21 Mme baperesiti ba bagolo ba raya Pilatwe ba re, “Fetola sesupo mo go reng, ‘Kgosi ya Bajuta’ o se fetolele mo go reng, ‘A re ke Kgosi ya Bajuta’.”
Therefore the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, Write not, The king of the Jews; but that he said, I am king of the Jews.
22 Pilatwe a fetola a re, “Se ke se kwadileng ke se kwadile. Se nna fela jaaka se ntse.”
Pilate answered, What I have written, I have written.
23 Erile masole a sena go bapola Jesu, a baya diaparo tsa gagwe ka mekoanyana e le mene, mongwe le mongwe wa one masole ao a nna le seabe mo mekoanyaneng eo. Mme ba re, “Re seka ra kgagola seaparo sa gagwe,” gonne se ne se sena momeno, “A re se tsheleleng bola (mataese) gore re tle re bone gore se tsewa e mang.” Mo ga diragatsa polelo ya dikwalo e e reng, “Ba kgaogana diaparo tsa me, mme ba tshelela hempe ya me bola.”
Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts, to every soldier a part, and also his coat. Now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be. That the scripture might be fulfilled: “They parted my garments among them, and for my vesture they cast lots.” These things the soldiers did.
25 Se ke sone se ba se dirileng. Gaufi le mokgoro go ne go eme Marea Mma Jesu le mmangwanaagwe ebong mosadi wa ga Kelopase le Marea Magatalena.
Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary the Magdalene.
26 Erile fa Jesu a bona mmaagwe a eme foo fa thoko ga me, nna tsala ya gagwe e kgolo, a raya mmaagwe a re, “Ke morwao.”
Jesus therefore, when he saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing by, saith to his mother, Woman, behold thy son!
27 Nna a nthaya a re, “Ke mmago.” Mme go simolola foo ka mo tseela kwa lwapeng lwa me.
Then he saith to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.
28 Jesu a itse gore sengwe le sengwe jaanong se weditswe, mme go diragatsa dikwalo a bua a re, “Ke nyorilwe.”
After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now finished, in order that the Scripture might be accomplished, saith, I thirst.
29 Nkgwana ya mofine o o botsarara e ne e le foo, mme ngami ya inwa mo go yone ya ba ya tlhomelwa ka thupa ya mosiama mme ya tsholelediwa kwa molomong wa gagwe.
A vessel was brought full of vinegar; and putting a sponge filled with vinegar upon a stalk of hyssop, they raised it to his mouth.
30 Erile fa Jesu a sena go leka mofine ka legano, a re, “Go fedile,” mme a lepeletsa tlhogo a golola mowa wa gagwe.
When therefore he had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished! and he bowed his head, and yielded up his spirit.
31 Baeteledipele ba Sejuta ba ne ba sa rate gore batho ba ba bapotsweng ba nne foo go fitlhelela letsatsi le le latelang, le e neng e le Sabata (le gone e le Sabata yo mogolo thata, gonne e ne e le Tlolaganyo) mme ba kopa Pilatwe go laola gore maoto a banna bao a rojwe go re ba swe ka bonako, le gore mebele ya bone e tle e folosiwe.
The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies might not remain upon the cross on the sabbath, for that sabbath was a great day, besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
32 Mme masole a tla a roba maoto a banna ba babedi ba ba bapotsweng le Jesu;
So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who was crucified with him.
33 mme erile fa ba tla kwa go ene, ba bona gore o setse a sule, mme ba seka ba roba a gagwe.
But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was already dead, they broke not his legs;
34 Le fa go ntse jalo, mongwe wa masole a tlhaba lotlhakore lwa gagwe ka segai, mme madi le metsi a elela.
but one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and immediately there came out blood and water.
35 Ke iponetse selo se ka matlho mme ke ntshitse polelo ya boammaaruri gore le lona lo dumele.
And he that hath seen hath borne witness, and his witness is true; and he knoweth that he saith what is true, that ye also may believe.
36 Masole a dira jaana a diragatsa seporofeso sa dikwalo se se reng, “Le fa e le lengwe la marapo a gagwe ga le na go rojwa, mme ba tlaa leba kwa go ene yo ba mo tlhabileng.”
For these things came to pass, that the scripture might be fulfilled, “A bone of him shall not be broken.”
And again another scripture saith, “They shall look on him whom they pierced.”
38 Moragonyana Josefa wa Arimathea, yo a neng a le morutwa wa ga Jesu ka sephiri ka ntlha ya go boifa baeteledipele ba Sejuta, a kopa Pilatwe ka bopelokgale go mo fa tetlelelo ya go tsaya mmele wa ga Jesu; mme Pilatwe a mo raya a re o ka tswelela pele wa ya go o tsaya. Mme a ya teng a ya go o tsaya a tsamaya ka one.
And after this, Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but concealing it for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him leave. They came therefore and took him away.
39 Nikodemo, monna yo a neng a kile a ya kwa go Jesu go le bosigo, a tla le ene a lere lookwane lo lo dirilweng ka mera le aloe lo lo tlhwatlhwa ya makgolo a le mabedi a dipula.
Nicodemus also, he who at the first went to him by night, came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds weight.
40 Botlhe ka bobedi ba phutha mmele wa ga Jesu ka leloba le le telele le innwe mo ditlolong tse di nkgang monate, ka e le mokgwa wa Sejuta wa phitlho.
Then they took the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen cloths with the spices, as is the manner of the Jews in preparing for burial.
41 Lefelo la Papolelo le ne le le gaufi le sekgwa sa ditlhare, kwa go neng go na le lebitla le lesha le le neng le ise le ke le dirisiwe.
Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid.
42 Mme jalo, ka ntlha ya iketleetso pele ga Sabata, le ka ntlha ya gore lebitla le ne le le gautshwane, ba mo robatsa mo go lone.
There then, on account of the Jews' preparation-day, they laid Jesus; for the tomb was at hand.
