< Johani 19 >

1 Ipapo Pirato akatora Jesu akaita kuti arohwe.
Then Pilate, therefore, took Jesus and scourged him.
2 Varwi vakaita korona yeminzwa vakaidzika pamusoro wake. Vakamupfekedza nguo dzepepuru
And the soldiers plaited a crown of thorn-branches, and put it upon his head; and they put on him a purple robe,
3 vakaenda kwaari vaendazve vachiti, “Kwaziwai, mambo wavaJudha!” Uye vakamurova kumeso.
and said: Hail, King of the Jews. And they struck him with their open hands.
4 Pirato akabuda akatizve kuvaJudha, “Tarirai, ndava kumuisa kwamuri kuti muzive kuti ndashaya mhosva paari.”
Then Pilate came out again, and said to them: Behold, I bring him out to you, that you may know that I find no fault in him.
5 Jesu akati abuda kunze akapfeka korona yeminzwa uye nenguo yepepuru, Pirato akati kwavari, “Hoyo munhu!”
Then Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorn-branches, and the purple robe. And Pilate said to them: Be hold the man!
6 Vaprista vakuru navatariri vavo vakati vachimuona, vakadanidzira vachiti, “Ngaarovererwe! Ngaarovererwe!” Asi Pirato akapindura achiti, “Mutorei imi mumuroverere. Kana ndirini, handiwani mhosva paari.”
When the chief priests and their attendants saw him, they cried out, saying: Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate said to them: Do you take him and crucify him; for I find no fault in him.
7 VaJudha vakasimbirira vachiti, “Isu tino murayiro, nomurayiro iwoyo, anofanira kufa, nokuti anozviti Mwanakomana waMwari.”
The Jews answered: We have a law, and according to our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.
8 Pirato akati anzwa izvi akanyanyisa kutya,
Then, when Pilate heard this word, he was the more afraid;
9 uye akadzokerazve mumuzinda. Akasvikobvunza Jesu achiti, “Unobvepiko iwe?” Asi Jesu haana kupindura.
and he went into the governor’s palace again, and said to Jesus: Whence are you? But Jesus gave him no answer.
10 Pirato akati, “Haudi kutaura neni here? Hauzivi here kuti ndine simba rokukusunungura kana kukuroverera pamuchinjikwa?”
Then Pilate said to him: Do you not speak to me? Do you not know that I have authority to crucify you, and authority to release you?
11 Jesu akapindura akati, “Haungatongovi nesimba pamusoro pangu kana usina kuripiwa richibva kumusoro. Naizvozvo uyo andiisa kwauri ane mhosva yechivi chikuru.”
Jesus answered: You could have no authority over me, had it not been given you from above. Therefore, he that delivered me to you, has the greater sin.
12 Kubva ipapo zvichienda mberi, Pirato akaedza kusunungura Jesu, asi vaJudha vakaramba vachidanidzira vachiti, “Kana ukasunungura murume uyu, zvoreva kuti hausi shamwari yaKesari. Ani naani anozviti mambo anopikisana naKesari.”
After this Pilate sought to release him. But the Jews cried out, saying: If you release this man, you are not Cæsar’s friend. Every one that makes himself a king, speaks against Cæsar
13 Pirato akati anzwa izvozvo, akabudisa Jesu kunze uye akagara pachigaro chokutonga panzvimbo inozivikanwa nokunzi: Pakarongwa Mabwe (nechiHebheru pachinzi Gabhata).
Then Pilate, when he heard that word, led Jesus out, and sat on the judgment-seat, in a place called the Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha;
14 Rakanga riri zuva rokugadzirira vhiki yePasika, awa inenge yechitanhatu. Pirato akati kuvaJudha, “Hoyu mambo wenyu.”
it was the preparation for the passover, and about the third hour; and he said to the Jews, Behold your king!
15 Asi vakadanidzira vachiti, “Endai naye! Endai naye! Murovererei!” Pirato akati, “Ndoroverera mambo wenyu here?” Vaprista vakuru vakapindura vachiti, “Hatina mambo isu, asi Kesari.”
But they cried out: Away with him, away with him; crucify him! Pilate said to them: Shall I crucify your king? The chief priests answered: We have no king but Cæsar
16 Pakupedzisira Pirato akamuisa mumaoko avo kuti arovererwe. Saka varwi vakatora Jesu.
Then he, therefore, delivered him to them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.
17 Akatakura muchinjikwa wake, akabuda akaenda kunzvimbo yeDehenya (zvichireva kuti Gorogota muchiHebheru).
And, bearing his cross, he went forth into a place called the Place of a Skull, which is called, in Hebrew, Golgotha,
18 Ipapo ndipo pavakamuroverera pamuchinjikwa navamwe vaviri, mumwe kuno rumwe rutivi nomumwe kuno rumwe rutivi, uye Jesu ari pakati.
where they crucified him, and with him two others, one on each side, and Jesus in the middle.
19 Pirato akanyora chiziviso akachiisa pamuchinjikwa. Chaiva chakanyorwa kuti: jesu wenazareta, mambo wavajudha.
And Pilate wrote a superscription, and put it on the cross; and the writing was, JESUS THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
20 VaJudha vazhinji vakaverenga zvakanga zvakanyorwa pachikwangwani ichi, nokuti nzvimbo yakarovererwa Jesu yakanga iri pedyo neguta, uye chikwangwani ichi chaiva chakanyorwa nechiHebheru, chiRatini uye nechiGiriki.
Therefore many of the Jews read this superscription, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city. And it was written in Hebrew and in Greek and in Latin.
21 Vaprista vakuru vavaJudha vakati kuna Pirato, “Musanyora kuti, ‘Mambo wavaJudha,’ asi kuti, ‘Munhu uyu akazviti mambo wavaJudha.’”
Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate: Write not, The king of the Jews; but, that he said, I am the king of the Jews.
22 Pirato akapindura akati, “Zvandanyora, ndanyora.”
Pilate answered: What I have written, I have written.
23 Varwi vakati varoverera Jesu pamuchinjikwa, vakabvisa nguo dzake, vakadziita migove mina, mumwe chete kuno mumwe nomumwe wavo, nguo yomukati iriyo yakasara. Nguo iyi yakanga isina pakasonwa, yakangorukwa kubva kumusoro kusvika pasi.
Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his clothing, and made four parts, to each soldier a part; and they took his coat also. Now his coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
24 Vakataurirana vakati, “Ngatiregei kuibvarura. Ngatikandei mujenya tione kuti ndiani achaitora.” Izvi zvakaitika kuti Rugwaro ruzadziswe runoti: “Vakagovana nguo yangu pakati pavo uye vakakanda mijenya pamusoro pechipfeko changu.” Saka izvi ndizvo zvakaitwa navarwi.
Then they said, one to another, let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be. This was done that the scripture might be fulfilled, which says: They divided my clothing among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. The soldiers, therefore, did these things.
25 Pedyo nomuchinjikwa waJesu pakanga pamire mai vake, mununʼuna wamai vake, naMaria mukadzi waKiropasi, naMaria Magadharena.
Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Cleopas, and Mary Magdalene.
26 Jesu akati aona mai vake ipapo, uye mudzidzi waaida amire pedyo navo, akati kuna mai vake, “Mai, hoyu mwanakomana wenyu,”
Then Jesus, seeing his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing by, said to his mother: Woman, behold your son.
27 uye kumudzidzi akati, “Ava mai vako.” Kubva pazuva iro zvichienda mberi, mudzidzi uyu akavatora akaenda navo kumba kwake.
Then he said to the disciple: Behold your mother. And from that hour that disciple took her to his own home.
28 Shure kwaizvozvo, achiziva kuti zvose zvainge zvapera zvino, uye kuitira kuti Rugwaro ruzadziswe, Jesu akati, “Ndava nenyota.”
After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, said: I thirst.
29 Pakanga pane mudziyo waiva nevhiniga ipapo, saka vakanyika chipanje imomo, vakaisa chipanje pachitanda chehisopi, vakachisimudzira kumuromo waJesu.
Now a vessel full of vinegar had been set there; and they filled a sponge with vinegar, and put it upon a hyssop-stalk, and put it to his mouth.
30 Akati anwa Jesu akati, “Zvapera.” Nokudaro, akakotamisa musoro wake uye akabudisa mweya wake.
Therefore, when Jesus had received the vinegar, he said: It is finished. And he bowed his head, and gave up his spirit.
31 Zvino rakanga riri zuva rokugadzirira, uye mangwana acho, rakanga riri zuva rakasanangurwa reSabata. Nokuda kwokuti vaJudha vakanga vasingadi kuti mitumbi isiyiwe iri pamuchinjikwa panguva yeSabata, vakakumbira Pirato kuti makumbo avo avhunwe uye kuti mitumbi ibviswe.
Then the Jews, as it was the preparation, that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath, for that sabbath-day was a great day, besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken down.
32 Naizvozvo varwi vakauya vakavhuna makumbo omunhu wokutanga uyo akanga arovererwa pamwe chete naJesu, uye vakazovhuna omumwe wacho.
Then came the soldiers and broke the legs of the first, and of the other that was crucified with him.
33 Asi vakati vasvika pana Jesu, uye vachiona kuti atofa, havana kuvhuna makumbo ake.
But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs:
34 Asi, mumwe murwi akamubaya nepfumo parutivi, pakarepo ropa nemvura zvikabuda.
but one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear; and immediately there came out blood and water.
35 Murume akazviona ndiye akapa umboo, uye uchapupu hwake ndohwechokwadi. Anoziva kuti ari kutaura chokwadi, uye anopupura kuitira kuti nemiwo mutende.
And he that saw it has given testimony, and his testimony is true, and he knows that he speaks the truth, that you may believe;
36 Zvinhu izvi zvakaitika kuitira kuti Rugwaro ruzadziswe runoti: “Hakuna kana bvupa rake rimwe richavhunwa,”
for these things were done that the scripture might be fulfilled: A bone of him shall not be broken.
37 uye sezvinoreva rumwe Rugwaro runoti, “Vachatarisa iye wavakabaya.”
And again another scripture says: They shall look on him whom they pierced.
38 Shure kwaizvozvo, Josefa weArimatea akakumbira Pirato kuti apiwe mutumbi waJesu. Zvino Josefa akanga ari mudzidzi waJesu, asi muchivande nokuti aitya vaJudha. Akati abvumirwa naPirato, akauya akatora mutumbi waJesu.
And after this, Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus. And Pilate gave him permission. He then came and took away the body of Jesus.
39 Akanga achiperekedzwa naNikodhimasi, murume uya akashanyira Jesu usiku. Nikodhimasi akauya nezvakavhenganiswa zvemura negavakava, zvinenge makirogiramu makumi matatu namana.
Then came Nicodemus also, (who, at the first, had come to Jesus by night, ) bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds.
40 Vakatora mutumbi waJesu, vakauputira vari vaviri nomucheka pamwe chete nezvinonhuhwira. Izvi zvaifambirana netsika dzokuviga dzavaJudha.
Then they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen cloths, with the spices, according to the Jewish custom of burying.
41 Panzvimbo iyo pakarovererwa Jesu pamuchinjikwa, paiva nebindu, uye mubindu imomo, maiva neguva idzva, rakanga risina munhu akamboradzikwamo.
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 Nokuti rakanga riri zuva rokugadzirira ravaJudha, uye sezvo guva raiva pedyo, vakaradzika Jesu imomo.
There, then, on account of the preparation-day of the Jews, they laid Jesus, for the tomb was near.
