Yohane 19
1 Popelapo Pilato walamumanta Yesu ne kumukwipisha.
So Pilate then took Jesus and flogged him.
2 Lino bashilikali balabamba mushini wa myunga nekumufwalika kumutwi. Kayi balamufwalika mwinjila wamushobo wabulemu ufubeluka,
The soldiers twisted thorns into a crown and put it on his head, and dressed him in a purple garment.
3 balikabesa kulyendiye nkabambeti, “Mitende, mobami ba Bayuda!” Pacindici balatatika kumuma.
They kept saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and they kept slapping him.
4 Pilato walapula pansa kayi nekubambila Bayuda, “Kamubonani ndamulete kuli njamwe, neco mwinshibe kwambeti ndiya kumucanapo ne mulandu uli wonse.”
Then Pilate went out again, and said to them, “Behold, I bring him out to you, that you may know that I find no basis for a charge against him.”
5 Popelapo Yesu walapula nkali afwala mushini wa myunga kumutwi ne cakufwala cifubeluka cisa, Pilato walambeti, “Uyu muntusa.”
Jesus therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. Pilate said to them, “Behold, the man!”
6 Bamakulene beshimilumbo nebamalonda ba mu Nga'nda ya Lesa basa mpobalabona Yesu, balolobesheti, “Mupopeni! Mupopeni!” Pilato walambeti, “Mumanteni mwenka mwenga mumupope pakwinga ame ndiya kumucanapo nemulandu.”
When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they shouted, saying, “Crucify! Crucify!” Pilate said to them, “Take him yourselves and crucify him, for I find no basis for a charge against him.”
7 Bantu balambeti, “Afwe tukute mulawo, nomba twakonka mulawo wetu uyu welela kufwa, pakwinga walikwambeti, ‘Njame Mwana wa Lesa.’”
The Jews answered him, “We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.”
8 Lino Pilato mpalanyumfwa maswi awa, walanyumfwa buyowa kwine.
When therefore Pilate heard this saying, he was more afraid.
9 Nomba walengila kayi munga'nda nekwipusha Yesu, “Nomba obe kwenu nikupeyo?” Nsombi Yesu nkalakumbula sobwe.
He entered into the Praetorium again, and said to Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus gave him no answer.
10 Kayi Pilato walamwipusheti, “Nicani nkolankumbulunga? Sena nkocinsheti nkute ngofu sha kukusungulula nekukupopa?”
Pilate therefore said to him, “Are not you speaking to me? Do not you know that I have power to release you and have power to crucify you?”
11 Yesu walambeti, “Lesa, abula kumupa ngofu nemuliya kwinsapo ciliconse palinjame. Weco uyo wanjaba kuli njamwe ukute bwipishi bunene.”
Jesus answered, “You would have no power at all against me, unless it were given to you from above. Therefore he who delivered me to you has greater sin.”
12 Mpwalanyumfwa maswi awa, Pilato walayandishisha kwambeti amusungulule Yesu. Nsombi Bayuda balolobesha, mwamusungulula muntuyu ekwambeti nkamwekatana ne mwami wa kuLoma. Uliyense lalyambanga kuba mwami, ekwambeti nimulwani wamwami wa ku Loma.
At this, Pilate was seeking to release him, but the Jews cried out, saying, “If you release this man, you are not Caesar’s friend! Everyone who makes himself a king speaks against Caesar!”
13 Pilato mpwalanyumfweco, walamupulisha Yesu, nekwikala pacipuna cakomboloshelapo milandu, pabusena bwalikukwiweti, “Lubansa lwa mabwe.” Mu cihebeli ukute kukwiweti, Gabata.
When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called “The Pavement”, but in Hebrew, “Gabbatha.”
14 Nomba bwalikuba busuba bwakulibambila sha Pasika, kayi cindi calikuba muma 12 koloko munshi. Pilato walambila Bayuda, “Uyu Mwami wenu.”
Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, at about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, “Behold, your King!”
15 Nomba nabo balolobesha nekwambeti, “Mushineni! Mushineni! Kapopwani!” Pilato walabepusheti, “Sena mpope Mwami wenu?” Bamakulene beshimilumbo balakumbuleti, “Tuliyawa Mwami naumbi sobwe, nsombi Mwami wa ku Loma enka.”
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 Caesar!”
16 Popelapo Pilato walamutwala Yesu kulyendibo kwambeti bamupope. kufumapo Yesu walaba mumakasa abo.
So then he delivered him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led him away.
17 Bashilikali balamumantisha Yesu lusanda lwakendi, balapula nendi mulubansa nekuya kumusena walikukwiweti. “Cifupa ca mutwi” Mu Cihebeli bakute kwambeti “Gologota.”
He went out, bearing his cross, to the place called “The Place of a Skull”, which is called in Hebrew, “Golgotha”,
18 Kopeloko balamupopa palusanda. Kayi balapopa bantu bambi babili, umbi kulikasa lyalulyo naumbi kulikasa lya kucipiko, Yesu nendi walikuba pakati.
where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the middle.
19 Pilato walalemba cishibisho pelu palusanda. Walalembeti, “Yesu wa kuNasaleti, Mwami wa Bayuda.”
Pilate wrote a title also, and put it on the cross. There was written, “JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
20 Mpwalapopela Yesu palikuba pepi neku Yelusalemu. Neco Bayuda bangi balikababelengapo. Cishibisho ici calikuba calembwa mumishobo itatu, Cihebeli ne Cilatini kayi ne Cigiliki.
Therefore many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.
21 Bamakulene ba beshimilumbo ba Bayuda balambila Pilato, “Kamutalembeti, Mwami wa Bayuda sobwe. Nsombi mwine ewalikulyambeti eMwami wa Bayuda.”
The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but, ‘he said, “I am King of the Jews.”’”
22 Nomba Pilato walambeti, “Mbyondalembe, nibibe copeleco mbuli ncondalembe.”
Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
23 Bashilikali basa mpwobalapopa Yesu, balamanta bayakufwala byakendi nekutwamunamo tumpansha tuna, mushilikali uliyense walamanta kampansha kakendi. Balamanta kayi nemwinjila wakendi uyo walikuba watungwa necikwisa cimo kayi nkawalikuba ne lupeto.
Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
24 Lino bashilikali abo balambilaneti, “Katutautwamuna sobwe, nsombi twinse nsolo kwambeti twinshibe na nibani eshi aumante.” Byalenshika mushoboyo kwambeti bikwanishiwe balambwa mumabala, “Balayabana byakufwala byakame, kayi mwinjila wakame balawinshila nsolo.” Weco ncobalensa bashilikali basa.
Then they said to one another, “Let’s not tear it, but cast lots for it to decide whose it will be,” that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which says, “They parted my garments among them. They cast lots for my clothing.” Therefore the soldiers did these things.
25 Nomba pepi ne lusanda palemana banyina, ne mukwabo banyina, kayi palikuba Maliya mukashendi klopa ne Mariya wa ku magadalena.
But standing by Jesus’ cross were his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.
26 Lino Yesu mpalabona banyina ne shikwiya usa ngwalikusuna nkabalibemana pepi, walambila banyina eti, “Ma mwanenu uno.”
Therefore when Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing there, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son!”
27 Walambila kayi shikwiya usa eti, “Banyoko aba.” Lino kufumina popelapo shikwiya usa walabamanta batukashi abo ne kutatika kubasunga cena kwakendi.
Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” From that hour, the disciple took her to his own home.
28 Yesu walenshiba kwambeti lino byonse bilakwanilishiwa. Lino kwambeti bikwanilishiwe byonse byalambwa mumabala, nendi walambeti “Nkute inyotwa.”
After this, Jesus, seeing that all things were now finished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I am thirsty!”
29 Popelapo palikuba nsupa yesula waini wasasa. Bashilikali basa balasabika cisambo mu waini wasasa usa, nekucisomeka kukatondo ka hisopi nekukashikisha pamulomo pakendi.
Now a vessel full of vinegar was set there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop, and held it at his mouth.
30 Yesu mpalasupita waini wasasa walambeti, “Byonse bilakwanilishiwa.” Lino walakotama mutwi nekufwa.
When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, “It is finished!” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
31 Bwalikuba busuba bwakulibambila sha Pasika. Bamakulene ba Bayuda nkabali kwandeti bitumbi ibyo bibe pa lusanda pa busuba bwa Sabata, pakwinga busuba bwa Sabata ubo bwalikuba bunene. Weco balamusenga Pilato kwambeti batyokole myendo ya bantu basa balikuba bapopwa nekubafunya.
Therefore the Jews, because it was the Preparation Day, so that the bodies would not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken away.
32 Lino bashilikali balesa, nekutyokola umo pa babili basa balapopwa pamo ne Yesu. Balensa copeleco ne kumunendi usa.
Therefore the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with him;
33 Nsombi mpobalashika pali Yesu, pakubona kwambeti lafu kendi, neco baliya kutyokola myendo yakendi.
but when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.
34 Nsombi umo wa bashilikali basa walamuyasa mumbafu ne lifumo, nomba mwalafuma milopa ne menshi.
However, one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.
35 Uyo walabona bintu ibi endiye labinshilinga bukamboni, kwambeti ne njamwe mushome. Bukamboni bwakendi nibwancine ncine, kayi mwine ucinshi kwambeti mbyalambanga nibyakubinga.
He who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, that you may believe.
36 Ibi byalenshika kwambeti byalambwa mumabala bikwanilishiwe, mabala akwambeti, “Nteshi bakatyokole lifupa lyakendi nambi limo.”
For these things happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled, “A bone of him will not be broken.”
37 Kayi kuli mabala nambi alambangeti, “Bantu nibakamwebele uyo ngobalayasa.”
Again another Scripture says, “They will look on him whom they pierced.”
38 Panyuma pakendi Yosefe wa ku Arimatea walasenga Pilato kwambeti amusuminishe kufunya citumbi ca Yesu. Yosefe walikuba weshikwiya wa Yesu, nsombi mwakusolama, pakwinga balikutina bamakulene ba Bayuda. Lino Pilato walamusuminisha, nendi walafunya citumbi ico.
After these things, Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked of Pilate that he might take away Jesus’ body. Pilate gave him permission. He came therefore and took away his body.
39 Kwalesa kayi nikodemasi, usa walaya kuli Yesu mashiku pakutatika pasa. Nendi walaleta mafuta anunkila a mule asankanishiwa ne aloe, alikuba alema makilogilamu akwana 32.
Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred Roman pounds.
40 Bantu babili aba balamanta mubili wa Yesu nekupomba mucikwisa caswepa ne mafuta anunkila cena, balakonka mwambo wa Bayuda.
So they took Jesus’ body, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury.
41 Uko Yesu nkwalapopwa kwalikuba libala. Nomba mulibala umo mwalikuba cumbwe calino lino, citana cibikwamo muntu.
Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden. In the garden was a new tomb in which no man had ever yet been laid.
42 Lino bwalikuba busuba bwa kulibambila kwa Bayuda kusekelela Pasika, Nomba manda ayo alikuba pepi, balabika Yesu mopelomo.
Then, because of the Jews’ Preparation Day (for the tomb was near at hand), they laid Jesus there.
