1 Ipapo Pirato akatora Jesu akaita kuti arohwe.
Then Pilate took Jesus and had Him flogged.
2 Varwi vakaita korona yeminzwa vakaidzika pamusoro wake. Vakamupfekedza nguo dzepepuru
The soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns, set it on His head, and dressed Him in a purple robe.
3 vakaenda kwaari vaendazve vachiti, “Kwaziwai, mambo wavaJudha!” Uye vakamurova kumeso.
And they went up to Him again and again, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and slapping Him in the face.
4 Pirato akabuda akatizve kuvaJudha, “Tarirai, ndava kumuisa kwamuri kuti muzive kuti ndashaya mhosva paari.”
Once again Pilate came out and said to the Jews, “Look, I am bringing Him out to you to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against Him.”
5 Jesu akati abuda kunze akapfeka korona yeminzwa uye nenguo yepepuru, Pirato akati kwavari, “Hoyo munhu!”
When Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, “Here is 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.”
As soon as the chief priests and officers saw Him, they shouted, “Crucify Him! Crucify Him!” “You take Him and crucify Him,” Pilate replied, “for I find no basis for a charge against Him.”
7 VaJudha vakasimbirira vachiti, “Isu tino murayiro, nomurayiro iwoyo, anofanira kufa, nokuti anozviti Mwanakomana waMwari.”
“We have a law,” answered the Jews, “and according to that law He must die, because He declared Himself to be the Son of God.”
8 Pirato akati anzwa izvi akanyanyisa kutya,
When Pilate heard this statement, he was even more afraid,
9 uye akadzokerazve mumuzinda. Akasvikobvunza Jesu achiti, “Unobvepiko iwe?” Asi Jesu haana kupindura.
and he went back into the Praetorium. “Where are You from?” he asked. But Jesus gave no answer.
10 Pirato akati, “Haudi kutaura neni here? Hauzivi here kuti ndine simba rokukusunungura kana kukuroverera pamuchinjikwa?”
So Pilate said to Him, “Do You refuse to speak to me? Do You not know that I have authority to release You and authority to crucify 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 would have no authority over Me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed Me over to you is guilty of 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.”
From then on, Pilate tried to release Him, but the Jews kept shouting, “If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar. Anyone who declares himself a king is defying Caesar.”
13 Pirato akati anzwa izvozvo, akabudisa Jesu kunze uye akagara pachigaro chokutonga panzvimbo inozivikanwa nokunzi: Pakarongwa Mabwe (nechiHebheru pachinzi Gabhata).
When Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat on the judgment seat at a place called the Stone Pavement, which in Hebrew is Gabbatha.
14 Rakanga riri zuva rokugadzirira vhiki yePasika, awa inenge yechitanhatu. Pirato akati kuvaJudha, “Hoyu mambo wenyu.”
It was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about the sixth hour. And Pilate said to the Jews, “Here is 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.”
At this, they shouted, “Away with Him! Away with Him! Crucify Him!” “Shall I crucify your King?” Pilate asked. “We have no king but Caesar,” replied the chief priests.
16 Pakupedzisira Pirato akamuisa mumaoko avo kuti arovererwe. Saka varwi vakatora Jesu.
Then Pilate handed Jesus over to be crucified, and the soldiers took Him away.
17 Akatakura muchinjikwa wake, akabuda akaenda kunzvimbo yeDehenya (zvichireva kuti Gorogota muchiHebheru).
Carrying His own cross, He went out to The Place of the Skull, which in Hebrew is called Golgotha.
18 Ipapo ndipo pavakamuroverera pamuchinjikwa navamwe vaviri, mumwe kuno rumwe rutivi nomumwe kuno rumwe rutivi, uye Jesu ari pakati.
There they crucified Him, and with Him two others, one on each side, with Jesus in the middle.
19 Pirato akanyora chiziviso akachiisa pamuchinjikwa. Chaiva chakanyorwa kuti: jesu wenazareta, mambo wavajudha.
Pilate also had a notice posted on the cross. It read: JESUS OF NAZARETH, 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.
Many of the Jews read this sign, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.
21 Vaprista vakuru vavaJudha vakati kuna Pirato, “Musanyora kuti, ‘Mambo wavaJudha,’ asi kuti, ‘Munhu uyu akazviti mambo wavaJudha.’”
So the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but only 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.
When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they divided His garments into four parts, one for each soldier, with the tunic remaining. It was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom.
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.
So they said to one another, “Let us not tear it. Instead, let us cast lots to see who will get it.” This was to fulfill the Scripture: “They divided My garments among them, and cast lots for My clothing.” So that is what the soldiers did.
25 Pedyo nomuchinjikwa waJesu pakanga pamire mai vake, mununʼuna wamai vake, naMaria mukadzi waKiropasi, naMaria Magadharena.
Near the cross of Jesus stood His mother and her sister, as well as Mary the wife of Clopas and Mary Magdalene.
26 Jesu akati aona mai vake ipapo, uye mudzidzi waaida amire pedyo navo, akati kuna mai vake, “Mai, hoyu mwanakomana wenyu,”
When Jesus saw His mother and the disciple whom He loved standing nearby, He said to His mother, “Woman, here is 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, “Here is your mother.” So from that hour, this disciple took her into his home.
28 Shure kwaizvozvo, achiziva kuti zvose zvainge zvapera zvino, uye kuitira kuti Rugwaro ruzadziswe, Jesu akati, “Ndava nenyota.”
After this, knowing that everything had now been accomplished, and to fulfill the Scripture, Jesus said, “I am thirsty.”
29 Pakanga pane mudziyo waiva nevhiniga ipapo, saka vakanyika chipanje imomo, vakaisa chipanje pachitanda chehisopi, vakachisimudzira kumuromo waJesu.
A jar of sour wine was sitting there. So they soaked a sponge in the wine, put it on a stalk of hyssop, and lifted it to His mouth.
30 Akati anwa Jesu akati, “Zvapera.” Nokudaro, akakotamisa musoro wake uye akabudisa mweya wake.
When Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished.” And bowing His head, He yielded 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.
It was the day of Preparation, and the next day was a High Sabbath. In order that the bodies would not remain on the cross during the Sabbath, the Jews asked Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies removed.
32 Naizvozvo varwi vakauya vakavhuna makumbo omunhu wokutanga uyo akanga arovererwa pamwe chete naJesu, uye vakazovhuna omumwe wacho.
So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man who had been crucified with Jesus, and those of the other.
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.
Instead, one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water flowed out.
35 Murume akazviona ndiye akapa umboo, uye uchapupu hwake ndohwechokwadi. Anoziva kuti ari kutaura chokwadi, uye anopupura kuitira kuti nemiwo mutende.
The one who saw it has testified to this, and his testimony is true. He knows that he is telling the truth, so that you also may believe.
36 Zvinhu izvi zvakaitika kuitira kuti Rugwaro ruzadziswe runoti: “Hakuna kana bvupa rake rimwe richavhunwa,”
Now these things happened so that the Scripture would be fulfilled: “Not one of His bones will be broken.”
37 uye sezvinoreva rumwe Rugwaro runoti, “Vachatarisa iye wavakabaya.”
And, as another Scripture says: “They will look on the One they have 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.
Afterward, Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus (but secretly for fear of the Jews), asked Pilate to let him remove the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission, so he came and removed His body.
39 Akanga achiperekedzwa naNikodhimasi, murume uya akashanyira Jesu usiku. Nikodhimasi akauya nezvakavhenganiswa zvemura negavakava, zvinenge makirogiramu makumi matatu namana.
Nicodemus, who had previously come to Jesus at night, also brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds.
40 Vakatora mutumbi waJesu, vakauputira vari vaviri nomucheka pamwe chete nezvinonhuhwira. Izvi zvaifambirana netsika dzokuviga dzavaJudha.
So they took the body of Jesus and wrapped it in linen cloths with the spices, according to the Jewish burial custom.
41 Panzvimbo iyo pakarovererwa Jesu pamuchinjikwa, paiva nebindu, uye mubindu imomo, maiva neguva idzva, rakanga risina munhu akamboradzikwamo.
Now there was a garden in the place where Jesus was crucified, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid.
42 Nokuti rakanga riri zuva rokugadzirira ravaJudha, uye sezvo guva raiva pedyo, vakaradzika Jesu imomo.
And because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and the tomb was nearby, they placed Jesus there.
