Mateo 27
1 Mangwanani-ngwanani vaprista vose vakuru navakuru vavanhu vakabvumirana kuti Jesu aurayiwe.
When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:
2 Vakamusunga, vakaenda naye vakandomuisa kuna Pirato uyo aiva mubati.
And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
3 Judhasi uya akanga amupandukira akati aona kuti Jesu atongerwa rufu, akazvidemba kwazvo ndokubva adzosera makumi matatu esirivha aya kuvaprista vakuru navakuru.
Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,
4 Akasvikoti, “Ndatadza, nokuti ndapandukira ropa risina mhosva.” Vakamupindura vachiti, “Zvinei nesu? Ndezvako izvo.”
Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.
5 Saka Judhasi akakanda mari iya mutemberi akabva akaenda akandozvisungirira.
And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.
6 Vaprista vakuru vakanhonga mari iya vakati, “Hazvitenderwi nomurayiro kuti tiise mari iyi mudura remari, sezvo iri mari yeropa.”
And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.
7 Saka vakazotenderana kuti vaishandise kutenga munda womuumbi wehari kuti ugova nzvimbo yokuviga vatorwa.
And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter’s field, to bury strangers in.
8 Naizvozvo wakanzi Munda Weropa kusvikira zuva ranhasi.
Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day.
9 Ipapo zvakabva zvazadziswa zvakataurwa nomuprofita Jeremia zvinoti, “Vakatora makumi matatu esirivha, mutengo waakatengeswa nawo navanhu veIsraeri,
Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;
10 uye vakaashandisa kutenga nawo munda womuumbi wehari, sokurayirwa kwandakaitwa naIshe.”
And gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord appointed me.
11 Panguva iyoyo Jesu akamira pamberi pomubati, uye mubati akamubvunza achiti, “Ndiwe mambo wavaJudha here?” Jesu akapindura achiti, “Hongu, ndizvo zvamataura.”
And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest.
12 Paakapomerwa navaprista vakuru navakuru vavanhu, haana chaakapindura.
And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.
13 Ipapo Pirato akamubvunza achiti, “Iwe haunzwi here uchapupu hwezvavari kukupomera izvi?”
Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee?
14 Asi, Jesu akaramba anyerere, akasapindura kunyange chimwe zvacho, mubati akashamiswa kwazvo.
And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly.
15 Zvino yaiva tsika yomubati pamutambo kusunungura musungwa mumwe chete anenge asarudzwa navanhu vazhinji.
Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would.
16 Panguva iyoyo vaiva nomusungwa ainge anetsa kwazvo ainzi Bharabhasi.
And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.
17 Saka vanhu vazhinji vakati vaungana, Pirato akavabvunza akati, “Ndoupi wamunoda kuti ndikusunungurirei: Bharabhasi kana kuti Jesu anonzi Kristu?”
Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ?
18 Nokuti aiziva kuti vakanga vamuisa kwaari nokuda kwegodo.
For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.
19 Pirato akati agere pachigaro chokutonga mukadzi wake akamutumira shoko iri rokuti: “Usawana chaunoita nomurume uyo asina mhosva, nokuti hope dzandarota nezvake usiku hwanhasi dzanditambudza kwazvo.”
When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.
20 Asi vaprista vakuru navakuru vavanhu vakakurudzira vanhu vazhinji kuti vakumbire Bharabhasi uye kuti Jesu aurayiwe.
But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
21 Mubati akabvunza akati, “Ndoupi pavaviri ava wamunoda kuti ndikusunungurirei?” Vakapindura vakati, “Bharabhasi!”
The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas.
22 Pirato akabvunza akati, “Zvino ndichaiteiko naJesu anonzi Kristu?” Vakapindura vakati, “Ngaarovererwe pamuchinjikwa!”
Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.
23 Pirato akabvunzazve achiti, “Nemhaka yei? Mhosva yake ndeyei?” Vanhu vazhinji vaya vakaramba vachidanidzira vachiti, “Ngaarovererwe pamuchinjikwa!”
And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.
24 Pirato akati aona kuti hapana kwaaisvika, asi kuti bope rakanga rotanga, akatora mvura akashamba maoko ake pamberi pavanhu akati, “Handina mhosva yeropa romunhu uyu. Zvionerei.”
When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.
25 Vanhu vose vakapindura vachiti, “Ropa rake ngarive pamusoro pedu napamusoro pevana vedu.”
Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
26 Ipapo akavasunungurira Bharabhasi, asi akaita kuti Jesu arohwe, uye akamupa kwavari kuti arovererwe pamuchinjikwa.
Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.
27 Ipapo varwi vomubati vakatora Jesu vakaenda naye mumuzinda womubati uye vakaunganidza hondo yose paari.
Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.
28 Vakamubvisa nguo dzake vakamupfekedza nguo tsvuku.
And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
29 Vakaruka korona yeminzwa vakaiisa pamusoro wake. Vakamubatisa mudonzvo muruoko rwake rworudyi vakapfugama pamberi pake uye vakamuseka vachiti, “Kwaziwai, Mambo wavaJudha!”
And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
30 Vakamusvipira mate vakamutorera tsvimbo iya uye vakamurova nayo mumusoro kakawanda.
And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head.
31 Shure kwokumuseka, vakamupfekedza nguo dzake chaidzo ndokuenda naye kundomuroverera pamuchinjikwa.
And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.
32 Vakati vobuda, vakasangana nomurume aibva kuSairini ainzi Simoni, uye vakamumanikidza kuti atakure muchinjikwa.
And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross.
33 Vakasvika panzvimbo inonzi Gorogota, (zvinoreva kuti Nzvimbo yeDehenya).
And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,
34 Ipapo vakapa Jesu waini yakasanganiswa nenduru, kuti anwe, asi akati airavira akaramba kuinwa.
They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.
35 Vakati vamuroverera pamuchinjikwa, vakagovana nguo dzake vachiita zvokukanda mijenya.
And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.
36 Uye vakagara pasi, vakamurinda.
And sitting down they watched him there;
37 Pamusoro pake vakaisa rugwaro rwemhosva yake rwaiti: “uyu ndijesu, mambo wavajudha.”
And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 Makororo maviri akarovererwawo pamwe chete naye, mumwe kurudyi mumwe kuruboshwe.
Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.
39 Vaya vaipfuura napo, vakamutuka vachidzungudza misoro yavo
And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,
40 uye vachiti, “Iwe uri kuzoputsa temberi uchizoivakazve mumazuva matatu, chizviponesa! Buruka pamuchinjikwa kana uri Mwanakomana waMwari!”
And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.
41 Nenzira imwe cheteyo, vaprista vakuru, navadzidzisi vomurayiro navakuru vakamuseka vachiti,
Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,
42 “Akaponesa vamwe, asi haagoni kuzviponesa! Ndiye Mambo weIsraeri! Ngaaburuke zvino pamuchinjikwa tigotenda kwaari.
He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.
43 Anovimba naMwari saka ngaachimununura iye zvino kana achimuda, nokuti akati, ‘Ndiri Mwanakomana waMwari.’”
He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.
44 Nenzira imwe cheteyo makororo akanga arovererwa pamwe chete naye akamutukawo.
The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.
45 Kubva panguva yechitanhatu kusvika panguva yepfumbamwe rima rakavapo panyika yose.
Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.
46 Nenguva inenge yepfumbamwe, Jesu akadanidzira nenzwi guru achiti, “Eroi, Eroi, rama sabhakitani?” zvichireva kuti, “Mwari wangu! Mwari wangu, mandisiyireiko?”
And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
47 Vamwe vakanga vamirepo vakati vanzwa izvozvo, vakati, “Ari kudana Eria.”
Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elijah.
48 Pakarepo mumwe wavo akamhanya akatora chipanje. Akachizadza newaini yevhiniga ndokuchiisa pachimuti, achibva apa Jesu kuti anwe.
And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
49 Vamwe vakati, “Zvino musiyei ari oga. Regai tione kana Eria achiuya kuzomuponesa.”
The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elijah will come to save him.
50 Uye Jesu akati adanidzira nenzwi guru, akabudisa mweya wake.
Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
51 Panguva iyoyo chidzitiro chomutemberi chakabvaruka napakati kubva kumusoro kusvika pasi. Nyika yakadengenyeka, uye mabwe akatsemuka.
And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
52 Makuva akazaruka, mitumbi yavatsvene vazhinji vakanga vakafa ikamutswa kuupenyu.
And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
53 Vakabuda mumakuva, uye shure kwokumuka kwaJesu vakapinda muguta dzvene uye vakaonekwa navanhu vazhinji.
And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
54 Mukuru wezana navaya vaakanga anavo vakarinda Jesu, pavakaona kudengenyeka kwenyika nezvose zvakanga zvaitika, vakatya kwazvo, uye vakati, “Zvechokwadi, anga ari Mwanakomana waMwari!”
Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
55 Vakadzi vazhinji vakanga varipo, vachitarira vari kure. Vakanga vatevera Jesu kubva kuGarirea kuti vamuriritire pane zvaaida.
And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:
56 Pakati pavo paiva naMaria Magadharena, Maria mai vaJakobho naJosefa, namai vavanakomana vaZebhedhi.
Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee’s children.
57 Kwakati kwovira, kwakauya mumwe murume mupfumi aibva kuArimatea, ainzi Josefa, akanga avawo mudzidzi waJesu.
When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathæa, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus’ disciple:
58 Akaenda kuna Pirato akandokumbira mutumbi waJesu, uye Pirato akarayira kuti aupiwe.
He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.
59 Josefa akatora mutumbi akauputira nomucheka wakachena,
And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
60 akauisa muguva rake idzva raakanga achera padombo. Akakungurutsira ibwe guru pamuromo weguva ndokubva aenda.
And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.
61 Maria Magadharena nomumwe Maria vakanga varipo vagere pakatarisana neguva.
And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.
62 Mangwana acho, iro rakatevera Zuva roKugadzirira, vaprista vakuru navaFarisi vakaenda kuna Pirato.
Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,
63 Vakasvikoti, “Ishe, tinorangarira kuti achiri mupenyu, munyengeri uya akati, ‘Mushure mamazuva matatu, ndichamukazve.’
Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.
64 Saka rayirai kuti guva rake richengetedzwe kwazvo kusvika pazuva retatu. Zvimwe vadzidzi vake vangauye vakaba mutumbi wake vakaudza vanhu kuti akamutswa kubva kuvakafa. Kunyengera kwokupedzisira uku kuchaipa kukunda kwokutanga.”
Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first.
65 Pirato akapindura akati, “Torai, varindi. Endai, mundochengetedza guva iroro semaziviro enyu.”
Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as ye can.
66 Saka vakaenda vakandoita kuti richengetedzwe nokuisa chisimbiso pabwe, uye nokuisa varindi.
So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch.
