Maliko 14
1 Mpokwalashala masuba abili kwambeti kube Pasika, ne kusekelela kwa shinkwa wabula chishikufufumusha. Beshimilumbo bamakulene ne beshikwiyisha Milawo ya Mose, bali kulangaula mwakumwikatila Yesu kwakubula kwinshiba bantu kwambeti bamushine.
After two days was the feast of the passover, and of unleavened bread. And the chief priests and the scribes were contriving how they might take Jesus by surprise, and kill him.
2 Nomba balikwambeti “Nkatwelela kumwikata pa cindi cakusekelela sobwe, pakwinga ngapaba mipyopyongano.”
They said, however, Not during the festival, for fear of an insurrection among the people.
3 Yesu mpwalikuba mung'anda ya shimoni, shimankuntu ku Betani, pacindi ncebalikulya kwalashika mutukashi walikuba wamata nsupa yalibwe lya alabasita mwalikuba wabika mafuta anunkila amulo wadula, amushobo wa nadi. Walapwaya nsupa ya libwe ne kutatika kwitila mafuta pa mutwi wa Yesu.
Now being at table in Bethany, in the house of Simon, formerly a leper, there came a woman with an alabaster box of the balsam of spikenard, which was very costly; and she broken open the box, and poured the liquor upon his head.
4 Nomba nabambi calabepila, balambeti “Nipacebo cini ncalatayilinga awa mafuta anunkila cisa?”
There were some present, who said with indignation, Why this profusion of the balsam?
5 “Canga celela kwaulisha mafutawa ne kucanamo mali angi ngelakufola muntu pa caka, akunyamfwilisha bakandu.” Neco balamukalalila mutukashi usa.
For it could have been sold for more than three hundred denarii, which might have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.
6 Nomba Yesu walambeti, “Mulekeni, mulamupenshelenga cani uyu mutukashi? Ici ncalenshili ame caina.
But Jesus said, Let her alone. Why do you molest her? She has done me a good office.
7 Pakwinga bakandu mulinabo cindi conse, cakwinseti mwayandanga kubenshila byaina, inga mubenshila, nomba amwe nteti mubenga nenjame cindi conse sobwe.
For you will have the poor always amongst you, and can do them good whenever you please; but me you will not always have.
8 Uyu mutukashi lenshi ncelela kwinsa, pakwinga lananikili limo mafuta pamubili wakame kantanambikwa mu manda.
She has done what she could. She has beforehand embalmed my body for the funeral.
9 Cakubinga ndambangeti kulikonse uko Mulumbe Waina nkoti ukakambaukwe pa cishi conse. Ici ncalenshi mutukashi uyu naco nibakacambenga kubantu kwambeti bakamwanukilengaponga.”
Indeed, I say to you, in whatsoever corner of the world the glad tidings shall be proclaimed, what this woman has now done, shall be mentioned to her honor.
10 Nomba Yuda Sikalyote umo wa beshikwiya likumi ne babili, walaya kuli beshimilumbo bamakulene kuya kumulisha kulyendibo.
Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, repaired to the chief priests, to betray Jesus to them.
11 Balakondwa mpobalanyumfwa ncalabambila ne kumushomesha kwambeti nibakamupe mali ngobalapangana. Nendi walatatika kulangaula cindi celela ca kumulisha.
And they listened to him with joy, and promised to give him money. Afterward he sought a favorable opportunity to deliver him up.
12 Pabusuba bwakutanguna bwa kusekelela kwa shinkwa wabula cishikufufumusha, pacindi ncobali kubenga milumbo ya nyama, beshikwiya bakendi Yesu balamwipusheti, “Inga mulayandanga twengakupeyo kuya kumubambila musena wakulyelako Pasika?”
Now the first day of unleavened bread, when the passover is sacrificed, his disciples said to him, Whither shall we go to prepare for your eating the passover?
13 Popelapo Yesu walatuma beshikwiya babili kuya kulangaula musena, ne kubambileti, “Kamuyani mu munshi uwu. Nimukumane ne mutuloba wamanta mungomo wa menshi mumukonkele.
Then he sent two of his disciples, saying to them, Go into the city, where you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water; follow him;
14 Engila mung'anda mumwambile mwine, eti ‘Bashikwiyisha balepushungeti, cilikupeyo cipinda cabensu umo mweti njise ndyele Pasika pamo ne beshikwiya bakame?
and wherever he shall enter, say to the master of the house, The Teacher says, Where is the guest chamber, in which I may eat the passover with my disciples?
15 Nomba amulesha ng'anda yapelu mwabambwa cena, mopelomo mweshimubambile Pasika.”
And he will show you a large upper room ready furnished. There prepare for us.
16 Neco beshikwiya basa balaya mumunshi, kayi byalenshika ndendende mbuli mwalabambilila, Pasika balamubambila kopeloko.
Accordingly, his disciples went away, and being come into the city, found everything as he had told them, and prepared the passover.
17 Cakumansailo Yesu pamo ne beshikwiya likumi ne babili balashika.
In the evening he went thither with the twelve.
18 Pacindi ncobalekala panshi kabalya Yesu walabambileti, “Cakubinga ndamwambilinga umo pali njamwe uyo lalinga pamo nenjame nangulishe.”
As they were at table eating, Jesus said, Indeed, I say to you, that one of you who eats with me, will betray me.
19 Bonse balanyumfwa nsoni ne kutatika ku mwipusha Yesu umo ne umo kabambeti, “Ndashometi ntame ngomulambanga ayi?”
Upon this they became very sorrowful; and asked him, all of them, one after another, Is it I?
20 Nendi Yesu walambeti, “Umo pali amwe likumi ne babili, ‘Umo pali njamwe, uyo walyanga pamo nenjame mumbale iyi, epeloyo elangulishinga.’
He answering, said to them, It is one of the twelve; he who dips his morsel in the dish with me.
21 Ni cakubinga Mwana Muntu lenga akufwa, mbuli Mabala ncalambanga sha endiye, nomba malele ku muntu lamulishinga Mwana wa Muntu! Ne calaba cena muntuyo nalabula kusemwa.”
The Son of Man departs in the manner foretold in the scripture concerning him; but alas for that man! by whom the Son of Man is betrayed: it had been better for that man never to have been born.
22 Mpobalikulya Yesu walamanta shinkwa ne kulumba Lesa, ne kukomauna shinkwa ne kubapa, ne kwambeti, “Kamumanta shinkwa uwu, emubili wakame.”
While they were at supper, Jesus took bread, and after blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, Take; this is my body.
23 Kayi walamanta nkomenshi mwalikuba waini walalumba Lesa, panyuma pakendi walabatambika nkomeshi mpaka bonse balanwamo.
Then he took the cup, and having given thanks, gave it to them; and they all drank of it.
24 Panyuma pakendi walabambileti, “Waini uwu emilopa yakame ya Cipangano iletikilinga bantu bangi.
And he said to them, This is my blood, the blood of the new institution, shed for many.
25 Cakubinga ndamwambilingeti, nteti nkanwepo waini mpaka pa busuba ubo mbweshi nkanwe waini naumbi mu Bwami bwa Lesa.”
Indeed, I say to you, that I will drink no more of the product of the vine, till that day when I shall drink it new in the kingdom of God.
26 Mpobalapwisha kwimbila nyimbo shakushikaisha Lesa balapula ne kuya ku mulundu maolifi.
And after the hymn, they went to the Mount of Olives.
27 Yesu walabambileti, “Mwense nimunkane mbuli Mabala alambangeti, ‘Ninkashine mwembeshi, ne mbelele ni shikamwaike.’
And Jesus said to them, This night I shall prove a stumbling stone to you all; for it is written, "I will smite the Shepherd, and the sheep shall be dispersed."
28 Ndakapundushiwa kufuma kubafu, ninkamutangunine kuya ku Galileya.”
Nevertheless, after I am raised again, I will go before you to Galilee.
29 Petulo nendi walambeti kuli Yesu, “Nambi bonse bamukane ame nkandelela.”
Peter then said to him, Though they all should stumble, I never will.
30 Yesu popelapo walamwambileti, “Cakubinga ndakwambilinga obe Petulo Kombwe katanalila tunkanda tubili lelo mashiku, obe nunkane tunkanda tutatu.”
Jesus answered him, Indeed, I say to you, that to-day, this very night, before the cock crow twice, even you will disown me thrice.
31 Nsombi nendi Petulo walakumbula cangofu, “Nkandelela kwambeco, nambi eti mfwa pamo nenjamwe!” Beshikwiya nabambi bonse balamba cimocimo.
But Peter insisted on it, adding, Although I should die with you, I will never disown you. And all the rest said the same.
32 Mpolabashika pa musena walikukwiweti Getsemane Yesu walabambila beshikwiya bakendi, “Kamwikalako panshi pamo ndenga kuya kupaila kuli Lesa.”
Then they came to a place named Gethsemane, where he said to his disciples, Stay here while I pray.
33 Pakuya uko walamanta Petulo ne Jemusi kayi ne Yohane, nsombi walapenga ne kuyakamwa mumoyo.
And he took with him Peter, and James, and John, and being seized with grief and horror,
34 Neco walabambileti, “Ame ndetelwa mumoyo cakwinsa kufwa, kamwikalani pano, kamutashinshila.”
said to them, My soul is overwhelmed with a deadly anguish; tarry here and watch.
35 Mpwalendako ntamwa shingana Yesu walaliwisha panshi nekutatika kupaileti, nakacikonsheka cintu cilayandanga kwinshika pacindi ici, cibule kwishinka.
And going a little before, he threw himself on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, he might be delivered from that hour,
36 Kayi walambeti, “Abba, Ta, Amwe ngamwinsa bintu bili byonse, kamufunyani nkomeshi mapensho ilayandanga kwisa pali njame, nsombi kakutaba kuyanda kwakame, sobwe nsombi kube kuyanda kwenu.”
and said, Abba, (that is, Father, ) all things are possible to thee; take this cup away from me; yet not what I would, but what thou wilt.
37 Mpwalabwela pamusena mpwalabashiya walacana kabali bonatulo, neco walepusha Petulo, “Shimoni sena ucili wonatulo, ‘nkowelela kuliyumishako kwakacindi kang'anowa?”
Then he returned, and finding them asleep, said to Peter, Simon, do you sleep? Could you not keep awake a single hour?
38 Kayi walabambileti, “Mobantu amwe pundukani, mupaile kwambeti kamutengila mumapensho, cakubinga, moyo ulandishishinga, nomba mubili walefuka.”
Watch and pray, that you be not overcome by temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
39 Yesu walabashiya kayi beshikwiya batatu basa, walaya akupaila kayi kamba cimo cimo.
Again, he retired and prayed, using the same words.
40 Mpwalabwela walacana nkabali bonatulo pakwinga bikope byabo byalikuba byalema, neco balabula cakwamba kulyendiye.
When he returned, he again found them sleeping; for their eyes were overpowered, and they knew not what to answer him.
41 Walabwela kacitatu ne kubepusheti “Mucili monatulo ne kupumwina? Mwaliba! Cindi cilakwana kamubonani Mwana Muntu ulipepi kutwalwa mu makasa abantu baipa.
A third time he came, and said to them, Do you now sleep, and take your rest? All is over: the hour is come: and the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners.
42 Nyamukani, tiyeni. Kamubonani shikungulisha nte uyu lashiki.”
Arise. Let us be going. Lo! he who betrays me is drawing near.
43 Yesu kacamba maswi awa Yuda Isikalyoti umo wabeshikwiya likumi ne babili walashika pamo ne likoto lyabantu abo balatumwa ne beshimilumbo bamakulene, ne beshikwiyisha milawo ya Mose ne bamakulene, kabalibamanta byensho, ne mingwala.
Immediately, before he had done speaking, appeared Judas, one of the twelve, with a great multitude armed with swords and clubs, who were sent by the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders.
44 Apa shikumulisha Yesu wali kalilabapakendi cishibisho ncobalayumfwana pamo cakwambeti, “Uyo ngotinshonshote pakumupa mitende, endiye Yesu mumwikatishe, mwenganendi, kamutamulekapo.”
Now the betrayer had given them this signal: The man whom I shall kiss, is he; seize him, and lead him away safely.
45 Yuda walaya pali kuba Yesu mwakufwambana ne kwambeti, “Mitende Bashikwiyisha,” Ne kumunshonshonta.
He was no sooner come, than accosting Jesus, he said, Rabbi, Rabbi, and kissed him.
46 Neco balamutanya Yesu ne kumusunga.
Then they laid hands on him and seized him.
47 Nomba naumo walikuba wemana pepi walasolola cibeshi cakendi ne kukwempula naco litwi lya musebenshi wa Shimilumbo Mukulene.
But one of those who were present, drew his sword, and smiting the high priest's servant, cut off his ear.
48 Nendi Yesu walabepusheti, “Inga mulamantili cani bibeshi, ne mingwala pakwisa kunjikata eti mulesanga kulwana ne kapondo?
Then Jesus addressing them, said, Do you come with swords and clubs to apprehend me, like people in pursuit of a robber?
49 Masuba onse ndalikuba nenu mpondali kwiyisha mu Ng'anda ya Lesa, muliyawa kuyeya shakunjikata. Nomba ibi bilenshikinga kwambeti Mabala akwanilishiwe.”
I was daily amongst you, teaching in the temple, and you did not arrest me. But in this the scriptures are accomplished.
50 Beshikwiya bonse balafwamba ne kumushiya enka.
Then they all forsook him and fled.
51 Nomba mutuloba naumo walikuba walifweka mwingila walikakonkela Yesu. Neye balayanda kumwikata,
Now there followed him a youth, who had only a linen cloth wrapped about his body; the soldiers having laid hold of him,
52 Walashiya cakufwala cakendi mumakasa abo ne kufwamba matakosha.
he left the cloth, and fled from them naked.
53 Balamutwala Yesu kuli Shimilumbo mukulene uko nkobalabungana beshimilumbo bonse, ne beshikwiyisha ya milawo ne bamakulene bonse.
Then they took Jesus away to the high priest, with whom all the chief priests, the elders, and the scribes, were convened.
54 Nomba Petulo walikuba pamo ne bantu bangi abo balikukonkela panyuma, mpaka walakengila mukati mwalubuwa lwa ng'anda ya Shimilumbo Mukulene, walakekala panshi pamo ne bamalonda kayota mulilo.
And Peter followed him at a distance, as far as the court of the high priest's house, and sat there with the officers, warming himself at the fire.
55 Pacindici beshimilumbo bamakulene, pamo ne Nkuta inene ya Bayuda, bali kulangaula bukamboni bwakwambeti Yesu acanike ne mulandu wakumushina, nomba calala kubacana.
Meanwhile, the chief priests, and all the Sanhedrin, sought for evidence against Jesus, in order to condemn him to die, but found none:
56 Pakwinga bangi balamba bukamboni bwapusanapusana pakuyanda kumucaninapo mulandu Yesu.
for many gave false testimony against him, but their testimonies were insufficient.
57 Nikukabeco nabambi bali kwimana ne kwamba bukamboni bwabwepeshi,
The some arose, who testified falsely against him, saying,
58 ne kwambeti, “Afwe twalamunyumfwa kambeti, ‘Ame ninkaiwishe Ng'anda ya Lesa iyi yalebakwa ne makasa,’ Nomba mu masuba atatu ame ninkebake imbi itebakwa ne makasa.”
We heard him say, I will demolish this temple made with hands, and in three days will build another without hands.
59 Nikukabeco byonse mbyobalikwamba nkabyalikuba byekatana.
But even here their testimony was defective.
60 Shimilumbo mukulene walemana ne kumwipusha Yesu, “Sena uliyawa cakwambapo? Sena nibyakubinga ibi mbyobala kwambanga?”
Then the high priest, standing up in the midst, interrogated Jesus, saying, Do you answer nothing to what these men testify against you?
61 Nomba nendi walamwena tonto, uliya kwambapo ciliconse. Apa kayi Shimilumbo Mukulene walamwipusha Yesu, “Sena njobe Klistu, Mwanendi Lesa Walelekwa?”
But he was silent, and gave no answer. Again, the high priest interrogating him, said, Are you the Messiah, the Son of the blessed One?
62 Yesu walakumbuleti, “Cakubinga ame njame. Mobantu amwe nimukabone Mwana Muntu kaliwekala kucikasa ca lulyo ca ngofu, nimukamubone kesa mumakumbi akwilu.”
Jesus answered, I am; nay, you shall see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Almighty, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
63 Shimilumbo mukulene mpwalanyumfwa maswi awa walatwamuna mwinjila wakendi nekwambeti, “Sena muciyanda kayi bakamboni nabambi?
Then the high priest rent his garments, saying, What further need have we of witnesses?
64 Mulalinyumfwili mobene ncalamunyansa Lesa. Mulayeyengapongeconi?” Bonse balambeti lacaniki ne mulandu, welela kufwa.
You have heard the blasphemy. What is your opinion? And they all pronounced him worthy of death.
65 Popelapo nabambi balatatika kumusankila mata, kumufweka pamenso, ne kumuma makofi, ne kwambeti, “Lotela!” Inga niyani lakumu? Panyuma pakendi, bamalonda balamumanta kabaya kumuma.
Then some began to spit on him; others to cover his face and buffet him, saying to him, Divine who it is. And the officers gave him blows on the cheeks.
66 Petulo kacili mu lubuwa lwamukati, umo musebenshi mutukashi wa Shimilumbo Mukulene walesa.
Now Peter being below in the court, one of the maids of the high priest came thither,
67 Mpwalamubona Petulo kayota mulilo walamulangishisha nekwambeti, “Nenjamwe mwalikuba ne Yesu waku Nasaleti.”
who seeing Peter warming himself, looked on him, and said, You also were with the Nazarene Jesus.
68 Nsombi nendi walamukana nekwambeti, “Nambi kumwinshiba, nkandi mwinshipo, kayi nkandanyumfwishishinga na ulambanga cani.” Mpwalambeco walapula kaya pacishinga.
But he denied it, saying, I know him not: nor do I understand what you mean. Immediately he went out into the portico, and the cock crew.
69 Kayi musebenshi mutukashi usa mpwalamubona kayi, walatatika kubambila abo mbwalikuba nabo pepi kwambeti, “Muntuyu walikwenda ne Yesu.”
The maid seeing him again, said to the bystanders, This is one of them.
70 Kayi apa walamukana. Mpopalapita kacindi pang'ana abo balikuba bemana pepi nendi Petulo balatatika kumwipusha eti, “Cakubinga obe njobe umo wa endibo nenjobe omu Galileya.”
Again he denied. And a little after, those who were present said to Peter, You are certainly one of them; for you are a Galilean, your speech shows it.
71 Nsombi nendi walatatika kulishinganya, ne kulumbileti, “Ame nkandimwishi muntuyu ngomulambanga sobwe.” Ne Kombwe walalila.
Upon this he affirmed, with imprecations, and oaths, that he did not know the man of whom they spoke.
72 Popelapo kayi Kombwe walalila katubili, Petulo walanuka ncalamwambila Yesu “Cakubinga ndakwabilinga Petulo obe, kombwe katanalila tunkanda tubili mashiku alelo obe nunkane tunkanda tutatu.” Neco, walatatika kulila cakutamwena.
The cock crew the second time: and Peter recollected the word which Jesus had said to him, Before the cock crow twice, you will disown me thrice. And reflecting upon this, he wept.
