Mako 15
1 Mangwanani-ngwanani, vaprista vakuru navakuru, vadzidzisi vomurayiro uye neDare Guru rose, vakaita sarudzo. Vakasunga Jesu, vakaenda naye vakandomuisa mumaoko aPirato.
At earliest dawn, after the High Priests had held a consultation with the Elders and Scribes, they and the entire Sanhedrin bound Jesus and took Him away and handed Him over to Pilate.
2 Pirato akamubvunza akati, “Ndiwe mambo wavaJudha here?” Jesu akapindura akati, “Hongu, ndizvo sokutaura kwamaita.”
So Pilate questioned Him. "Are you the King of the Jews?" he asked. "I am," replied Jesus.
3 Vaprista vakuru vakamupomera zvinhu zvizhinji kwazvo.
Then, as the High Priests went on heaping accusations on Him,
4 Saka Pirato akabvunzazve akati, “Ko, haupinduri here? Tarira kuwanda kwezvinhu zvavanokupomera.”
Pilate again and again asked Him, "Do you make no reply? Listen to the many charges they are bringing against you."
5 Asi Jesu haana kupindura, uye Pirato akashamiswa nazvo.
But Jesus made no further answer: so that Pilate wondered.
6 Zvino yakanga iri tsika yapaMutambo kuti asunungure musungwa anenge akumbirwa navanhu.
Now at the Festival it was customary for Pilate to release to the Jews any one prisoner whom they might beg off from punishment;
7 Murume ainzi Bharabhasi akanga ari mutorongo pamwe chete navamwe vakanga vamutsa bope vakauraya munhu.
and at this time a man named Barabbas was in prison among the insurgents--persons who in the insurrection had committed murder.
8 Vanhu vazhinji vakauya vakakumbira Pirato kuti avaitire zvaaisiita.
So the people came crowding up, asking Pilate to grant them the usual favour.
9 Pirato akabvunza akati, “Munoda kuti ndikusunungurirei mambo wavaJudha here?”
"Shall I release for you the King of the Jews?" answered Pilate.
10 achiziva kuti zvaingova zvegodo ravaprista vakuru kuti vakaisa Jesu mumaoko ake.
For he could see that it was out of sheer spite that the High Priests had handed Him over.
11 Asi vaprista vakuru vakamutsa mwoyo yavazhinji kuti vaite kuti Pirato asunungure Bharabhasi pachinzvimbo chaJesu.
But the High Priests urged on the crowd to obtain Barabbas's release in preference;
12 Pirato akabvunza akati, “Ndichaiteiko, zvino, nouyo wamunoti mambo wavaJudha?”
and when Pilate again asked them, "What then shall I do to the man you call King of the Jews?"
13 Vakadanidzira vachiti, “Murovererei pamuchinjikwa!”
they once more shouted out, "Crucify Him!"
14 Pirato akavabvunza akati, “Nemhaka yeiko? Akapara mhosva yeiko?” Asi vakanyanya kudanidzira vachiti, “Murovererei pamuchinjikwa!”
"Why, what crime has he committed?" asked Pilate. But they vehemently shouted, "Crucify Him!"
15 Achida kufadza vanhu, Pirato akasunungura Bharabhasi. Akaita kuti Jesu arohwe, uye akamuendesa kuti andorovererwa.
So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the mob, released Barabbas for them, and after scourging Jesus handed Him over for crucifixion.
16 Varwi vakatora Jesu vakapinda naye mumuzinda, Piritoriamu, uye vakaunganidza pamwe chete boka rose ravarwi.
Then the soldiers led Him away into the court of the Palace (the Praetorium), and calling together the whole battalion
17 Vakamupfekedza nguo dzepepuru, ipapo vakamurukira korona yeminzwa vakaigadzika pamusoro wake.
they arrayed Him in crimson, placed on His head a wreath of thorny twigs which they had twisted,
18 Uye vakatanga kudanidzira kwaari vachiti, “Kwaziwaika, mambo wavaJudha!”
and went on to salute Him with shouts of "Long live the King of the Jews."
19 Vakaramba vachingomurova mumusoro netsvimbo uye vachimupfira mate. Vachipfugama namabvi avo, vakaita savanomunamata.
Then they began to beat Him on the head with a cane, to spit on Him, and to do Him homage on bended knees.
20 Uye vakati vamudadira, vakabvisa nguo yepepuru vakamupfekedza dzake. Ipapo vakabuda naye kundomuroverera pamuchinjikwa.
At last, having finished their sport, they took the robe off Him, put His own clothes on Him, and led Him out to crucify Him.
21 Mumwe murume aibva kuKurini, Simoni baba vaArekizanda naRufasi, akanga achipfuura achibva kumaruwa, vakamumanikidza kuti atakure muchinjikwa.
One Simon, a Cyrenaean, the father of Alexander and Rufus, was passing along, coming from the country: him they compelled to carry His cross.
22 Vakaenda naJesu kunzvimbo yainzi Gorogota (kureva kuti Nzvimbo yeDehenya).
So they brought Him to the place called Golgotha, which, being translated, means 'Skull-ground.'
23 Ipapo vakamupa waini yakavhenganiswa nemura, asi haana kuinwa.
Here they offered Him wine mixed with myrrh; but He refused it.
24 Uye vakamuroverera pamuchinjikwa. Vakagovana nguo dzake, vakakanda mijenya kuti vaone kuti mumwe nomumwe angawanei.
Then they crucified Him. This done, they divided His garments among them, drawing lots to decide what each should take.
25 Yakanga iri nguva yechitatu pavakamuroverera.
It was nine o'clock in the morning when they crucified Him.
26 Zvakanga zvakanyorwa pamusoro pake zvaiti: mambo wavajudha.
Over His head was the notice in writing of the charge against Him: THE KING OF THE JEWS.
27 Vakamuroverera pamwe chete namakororo maviri, mumwe kurudyi uye mumwe kuruboshwe.
And together with Jesus they crucified two robbers, one at His right hand and one at His left.
28 Uye rugwaro rwakazadziswa runoti, “Akaverengwa pamwe chete navadariki.”
29 Vaya vakanga vachipfuura vaimutuka, vachidzungudza misoro yavo vachiti, “Saka! Iwe uri kuzoputsa temberi nokuivaka mumazuva matatu,
And all the passers-by reviled Him. They shook their heads at Him and said, "Ah! you who were for destroying the Sanctuary and building a new one in three days,
30 chiburuka pamuchinjikwa uzviponese!”
come down from the cross and save yourself."
31 Nenzira imwe cheteyo vaprista vakuru navadzidzisi vomurayiro vakamuseka pakati pavo, vakati, “Akaponesa vamwe, asi haagoni kuzviponesa!
In the same way the High Priests also, as well as the Scribes, kept on scoffing at Him, saying to one another, "He has saved others: himself he cannot save!
32 Kristu uyu, Mambo wavaIsraeri uyu, ngaaburuke iye zvino pamuchinjikwa, kuti tione tigotenda.” Navaya vakanga vakarovererwa pamwe chete naye vakamutukawo.
This Christ, the King of Israel, let him come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe." Even the men who were being crucified with Him heaped insults on Him.
33 Nenguva yechitanhatu rima rakauya pamusoro penyika yose kusvikira panguva yepfumbamwe.
At noon there came a darkness over the whole land, lasting till three o'clock in the afternoon.
34 Uye panguva yepfumbamwe, Jesu akadanidzira nenzwi guru achiti, “Eroi, Eroi, rama sabhakitani?” zvinoreva kuti “Mwari wangu, Mwari wangu, mandisiyireiko?”
But at three o'clock Jesus cried out with a loud voice, "Elohi, Elohi, lama sabachthani?" which means, "My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken me?"
35 Vaya vakanga vamire pedyo vakati vanzwa izvi, vakati, “Inzwai, ari kudana Eria.”
Some of the bystanders, hearing Him, said, "Listen, he is calling for Elijah!"
36 Mumwe murume akamhanya, akazadza chipanje newaini yaivava, akachiisa parutanda, akachipa kuna Jesu kuti anwe, akati “Zvino musiyei akadaro. Regai tione kana Eria achiuya kuzomuburutsa.”
Then a man ran to fill a sponge with sour wine, and he put it on the end of a cane and placed it to His lips, saying at the same time, "Wait! let us see whether Elijah will come and take him down."
37 Ipapo Jesu akadanidzira nenzwi guru, akabudisa mweya wake.
But Jesus uttered a loud cry and yielded up His spirit.
38 Chidzitiro chapatemberi chakabvaruka napakati kubva kumusoro kusvikira pasi.
And the curtain in the Sanctuary was torn in two, from top to bottom.
39 Uye mukuru wezana, akanga amirepo, pamberi paJesu, akati anzwa kudanidzira kwake uye aona mafiro aakaita, akati, “Zvirokwazvo murume uyu anga ari Mwanakomana waMwari!”
And when the Centurion who stood in front of the cross saw that He was dead, he exclaimed, "This man was indeed God's Son."
40 Vamwe vakadzi vakanga vachitarira vari kure. Pakati pavo paiva naMaria Magadharena, Maria mai vaJakobho, mununʼuna waJosesi, naSarome.
There were also a party of women looking on from a distance; among them being both Mary of Magdala and Mary the mother of James the Little and of Joses, and Salome--
41 Vakadzi ava vomuGarirea ndivo vaimutevera uye vachimushandira. Vakadzi vazhinji vakanga vauya naye kuJerusarema vakanga varipowo.
all of whom in the Galilaean days had habitually been with Him and cared for Him, as well as many other women who had come up to Jerusalem with Him.
42 Rakanga riri Zuva roKugadzirira (ndiro rinotangira Sabata.) Saka kwovira,
Towards sunset, as it was the Preparation--that is, the day preceding the Sabbath--
43 Josefa weArimatea, nhengo yeDare Guru yaiva nomukurumbira, uyo akanga akamirirawo umambo hwaMwari, akatsunga kuenda kuna Pirato kundokumbira mutumbi waJesu.
Joseph of Arimathaea came, a highly respected member of the Council, who himself also was living in expectation of the Kingdom of God. He summoned up courage to go in to see Pilate and beg for the body of Jesus.
44 Pirato akashamiswa kunzwa kuti akanga atofa. Akatuma mukuru wezana, akamubvunza kana Jesu akanga afa.
But Pilate could hardly believe that He was already dead. He called, however, for the Centurion and inquired whether He had been long dead;
45 Akati anzwa kubva kumukuru wezana kuti zvakanga zviri izvo, akapa mutumbi kuna Josefa.
and having ascertained the fact he granted the body to Joseph.
46 Saka akauya nemimwe micheka, akaburutsa mutumbi, akauputira nomucheka, akauisa muguva rakanga rakacherwa paruware. Ipapo akakungurutsira ibwe pamuromo weguva.
He, having bought a sheet of linen, took Him down, wrapped Him in the sheet and laid Him in a tomb hewn in the rock; after which he rolled a stone against the entrance to the tomb.
47 Maria Magadharena naMaria mai vaJosesi vakaona paakavigwa.
Mary of Magdala and Mary the mother of Joses were looking on to see where He was put.
