Johani 18
1 Jesu areva zvinhu izvi wakabudira mhiri kwerukova Kedhironi nevadzidzi vake, paiva nebindu, maakapinda iye nevadzidzi vake.
These things having said (*ko*) Jesus went out with the disciples of Him beyond the winter stream (of the *N(k)O*) of Kidron where there was a garden into which entered He himself and the disciples of Him.
2 NaJudhasiwo, wakamutengesa, wakange achiziva nzvimbo iyi; nokuti Jesu kazhinji waiunganapo nevadzidzi vake.
Knew now also Judas who is delivering up Him the place, because often gathered together (*ko*) Jesus there with the disciples of Him.
3 Naizvozvo Judhasi, atora boka remauto, nemapurisa kubva kuvapristi vakuru neVaFarisi, wakauyapo nemwenje nemarambi nezvombo.
Therefore Judas having procured the cohort and from the chief priests and from the Pharisees officers comes there with lanterns and torches and weapons.
4 Naizvozvo Jesu, achiziva zvinhu zvese zvaizomuwira, wakabuda akati kwavari: Ndiani wamunotsvaka?
Jesus (therefore *NK(o)*) knowing all things that are coming upon Him (he went out *N(k)O*) (also *no*) (speaks *N(k)O*) to them; Whom seek you?
5 Vakamupindura vakati: Jesu muNazareta. Jesu akati kwavari: Ndini. NaJudhasiwo wakamutengesa wakange amire navo.
They answered to Him; Jesus of Nazareth. He says to them (*ko*) (Jesus: *KO*) I myself am [He]. Had been standing now also Judas who is delivering up Him with them.
6 Zvino wakati achiti kwavari: Ndini; vakasudurukira shure, vakawira pasi.
When therefore He said to them (that: *k*) I myself am [He], they drew toward the back and fell to [the] ground.
7 Zvino akavabvunzazve achiti: Ndiani wamunotsvaka? Ivo vakati: Jesu muNazareta.
Again therefore He questioned them: Whom seek you? And they said; Jesus of Nazareth.
8 Jesu akapindura achiti: Ndakuudzai kuti ndini iye; naizvozvo kana muchitsvaka ini, regai ava vaende;
Answered (*k*) Jesus; I have told you that I myself am [He]. If therefore Me myself you seek, do allow these to go away;
9 kuti shoko rizadziswe raakareva rekuti: Vamakapa kwandiri, handina kurasa umwe wavo.
so that may be fulfilled the word that He had spoken that Those whom You have given Me not I lost of them not [one].
10 Naizvozvo Simoni Petro ane munondo wakauvhomora ndokutema muranda wemupristi mukuru, ndokugura nzeve yake yerudyi. Uye zita remuranda uyo raiva Marikosi.
Simon then Peter having a sword drew it and he struck the of the high priest servant and cut off of him the (ear *N(k)O*) right; Was now name of the servant Malchus.
11 Naizvozvo Jesu wakati kuna Petro: Isa munondo wako mumuhara; mukombe Baba wavakandipa, handingatongounwi here?
Said therefore Jesus to Peter; do put the sword (of you *k*) into the sheath. The cup which has given Me the Father certainly surely shall I drink it?
12 Zvino boka remauto nemukuru wechuru nemapurisa eVaJudha vakabata Jesu, vakamusunga,
Then the cohort and the commander and the officers of the Jews took hold of Jesus and bound Him
13 ndokutanga kumuendesa kuna Anasi; nokuti wakange ari mukarahwa waKayafasi, waiva mupristi mukuru gore iroro.
and (they brought away *N(k)O*) (him *k*) to Annas first; he was for father-in-law of Caiaphas who was high priest on the year same.
14 Zvino Kayafasi ndiye wakange araira VaJudha, kuti zvakanaka kuti munhu umwe afire rudzi.
Was now Caiaphas the [one] having given counsel to the Jews that it is profitable for one man (to die *N(k)O*) for the people.
15 Zvino Simoni Petro wakatevera Jesu, neumwe mudzidzi. Mudzidzi uyu waizikanwa nemupristi mukuru, akapinda naJesu muchivanze chemupristi mukuru;
Were following now after Jesus Simon Peter and (the *ko*) other disciple. the Now disciple that [one] was known to the high priest also he entered with Jesus into the court of the high priest.
16 asi Petro wakange amire pamukova panze. Naizvozvo kwakabuda umwe mudzidzi waizikanwa nemupristi mukuru, akataura nemurindikadzi wemukova, ndokupinza Petro.
But Peter had stood at the door outside. Went out therefore the disciple other (who *N(k)O*) (was *k*) known (to the high priest *N(k)O*) and spoke to the doorkeeper and brought in Peter.
17 Zvino murandakadzi murindi wemukova akati kuna Petro: Iwewo hausi umwe wevadzidzi vemunhu uyu here? Iye akati: Handisi.
Says therefore to Peter the servant girl the doorkeeper: Surely also you yourself of the disciples are of the man this? Says he; Not I am.
18 Zvino varanda nemapurisa vakange vamire vavesa moto wemazimbe, nokuti kwaitonhora, uye vaidziya. Petrowo akamira navo achidziya.
Had been standing now the servants and the officers a fire of coals having made, for cold it was and they were warming themselves; Was now (also *no*) Peter with them having stood and warming himself.
19 Naizvozvo mupristi mukuru wakabvunza Jesu nezvevadzidzi vake, nezvedzidziso yake.
Then the high priest questioned Jesus concerning the disciples of Him and concerning the teaching of Him.
20 Jesu akamupindura akati: Ini ndakataura pachena kunyika; ini ndaidzidzisa nguva dzese musinagoge nemutembere, panoungana VaJudha nguva dzese, uye handina kureva chinhu pakavanda.
Answered to him (*k*) Jesus; I myself openly (have spoken *N(k)O*) to the world. I myself always taught in (the *k*) synagogue and in the temple where (all *N(K)O*) the Jews come together, and in secret I spoke not [anything].
21 Unobvunzirei ini? Bvunza avo vainzwa, zvandaitaura kwavari; tarira, ndivo vanoziva ini zvandakareva.
Why Me (do you ask? do ask *N(k)O*) those having heard what I spoke to them. behold they know what said I myself.
22 Wakati areva zvinhu izvi, umwe wemapurisa wakange amirepo akarova Jesu nembama, achiti: Ko unopindura mupristi mukuru saizvozvo?
These things now of Him having said one already standing by of the officers gave a blow with the palm to Jesus having said; Thus answer You to the high priest?
23 Jesu akamupindura akati: Kana ndareva zvakaipa, pupura zvezvakaipa zvacho; asi kana zvakanaka, wandiroverei?
Answered to him (*k*) Jesus; If evil I spoke, do bear witness concerning the evil; if however rightly, why Me strike you?
24 Zvino Anasi akamutumira akasungwa kuna Kayafasi mupristi mukuru.
Sent then Him Annas bound to Caiaphas the high priest.
25 Zvino Simoni Petro wakange amire achidziya moto; naizvozvo vakati kwaari: Hausi iwewo umwe wevadzidzi vake here? Iye akaramba, akati: Handisi.
Was now Simon Peter already standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him; Surely also you yourself of the disciples of Him are? Denied (therefore *O*) he and said; Not I am.
26 Umwe wevaranda vemupristi mukuru, ari hama yewenzeve Petro yaakagura akati: Ini handina kukuona mubindu unaye here?
Says one of the servants of the high priest kinsman being [of him] of whom cut off Peter the ear; Surely I myself you saw in the garden with Him?
27 Naizvozvo Petro akarambazve; zvino pakarepo jongwe rakarira.
Again then denied (*k*) Peter, and immediately a rooster crowed.
28 Zvino vakabvisa Jesu kuna Kayafasi vakamuisa kuimba yemutungamiriri; uye aiva mambakwedza, asi ivo havana kupinda mumba memutungamiriri, kuti varege kusvibiswa, asi kuti vadye pasika.
They are leading then Jesus from Caiaphas into the Praetorium; It was now (early. *N(k)O*) and they themselves not entered into the Praetorium so that not they may be defiled but (so that *K*) may eat the Passover.
29 Naizvozvo Pirato akabudira kwavari, akati: Imhosva yei yamunoisa pamunhu uyu?
Went therefore Pilate (out *NO*) to them and (said; *N(k)O*) What accusation bring you against man this?
30 Vakapindura vakati kwaari: Dai uyu asaiva anoita zvakaipa, tingadai tisina kumukumikidza kwamuri.
They answered and they said to him; only except were He (evil *N(K)O*) (doing, *N(k)O*) [then] not would to you we have delivered Him.
31 Naizvozvo Pirato wakati kwavari: Mutorei imwi, mumutonge zvinoenderana nemurairo wenyu. Naizvozvo VaJudha vakati kwaari: Hazvisi pamutemo kwatiri kuti tiuraye munhu;
Said therefore to them Pilate; do take Him yourselves and according to the law of you do judge Him. Said (therefore *KO*) to him the Jews; To us not it is permitted to put to death no [one];
32 kuti shoko raJesu rizadziswe raakareva, achiratidza kuti kufa rudzii kwaaifanira kufa nako.
that the word of Jesus may be fulfilled which He had spoken signifying as what death He was about to die.
33 Naizvozvo Pirato wakapindazve mumba memutungamiriri, akadana Jesu, akati kwaari: Ndiwe mambo weVaJudha here?
Entered therefore again into the Praetorium Pilate and he called Jesus and said to Him; You yourself are the King of the Jews?
34 Jesu akamupindura akati: Unozvireva izvi pachako here, kana vamwe vakuudza pamusoro pangu?
Answered (to him *k*) Jesus; Of (yourself *N(k)O*) you yourself this say or others did say [it] to you concerning Me?
35 Pirato akapindura, akati: Ini ndiri muJudha here? Rudzi rwako nevapristi vakuru vakukumikidza kwandiri; waitei?
Answered Pilate; surely not ever I myself a Jew am? The nation of You and the chief priests delivered You to me myself; What did You do?
36 Jesu akapindura akati: Ushe hwangu hahuzi hwenyika ino; kana ushe hwangu hwaiva hwenyika ino, varanda vangu vangadai vairwa, kuti ndirege kukumikidzwa kuVaJudha; asi zvino ushe hwangu hahusi hwepano.
Answered (*k*) Jesus; The kingdom of Mine not is of world this; if of world this were kingdom of Mine, attendants of Mine they were fighting then would that not I may be betrayed to the Jews; Now however kingdom of Mine not is from here.
37 Naizvozvo Pirato wakati kwaari: Saka uri iwe mambo here? Jesu akapindura akati: Unoreva iwe, kuti ini ndiri mambo. Ini ndakaberekerwa izvi, uye ndakauira izvi munyika kuti ndipupurire chokwadi. Umwe neumwe wechokwadi anonzwa inzwi rangu.
Said therefore to Him Pilate; Then a king are You yourself? Answered Jesus; You yourself say that a king am (I myself. *k*) I myself for this have been born and for this I have come into the world that I may bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is being of the truth hears My the voice.
38 Pirato akati kwaari: Chokwadi chii? Zvino wakati areva izvi, akabudirazve kuVaJudha, akati kwavari: Ini handiwani mhosva kwaari.
Says to Him Pilate; What is truth? And this having said again he went out to the Jews and says to them; I myself no [thing] find in Him guilt.
39 Asi mune tsika, kuti ndikusunungurirei umwe papasika; naizvozvo munoda kuti ndikusunungurirei Mambo weVaJudha here?
It is however a custom with you that one I may release to you at the Passover; wish you therefore I may release to you the King of the Jews?
40 Ipapo vakadanidzirazve vese, vachiti: Kwete uyu, asi Bharabhasi; zvino Bharabhasi wakange ari gororo.
They cried out then again (all *ko*) saying; Not this one but Barabbas! Was now Barabbas an insurrectionist.
