Marko 14
1 Ilikuwa siku mbili tu kabla ya sikukuu ya Pasaka na ya Mikate Isiyotiwa Chachu. Makuhani wakuu na walimu wa Sheria walikuwa wakitafuta njia ya kumtia Yesu nguvuni kwa hila wamuue.
And after two days, was the passover of unleavened cakes. And the chief priests and the Scribes sought how they might take him by stratagem, and kill him.
2 Lakini walisema, “Tusimtie nguvuni wakati wa sikukuu, watu wasije wakafanya ghasia.”
But they said: Not on the festival, lest there be commotion among the people.
3 Yesu alikuwa Bethania, nyumbani kwa Simoni, Mkoma. Alipokuwa mezani kula chakula, mama mmoja aliyekuwa na chupa ya alabasta yenye marashi ya nardo safi ya thamani kubwa alikuja, akaivunja hiyo chupa, akammiminia Yesu marashi hayo kichwani.
And when he was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he reclined, a woman came having an alabaster box of precious ointment of spikenard, of great price; and she opened and poured upon the head of Jesus.
4 Baadhi ya watu waliokuwa hapo walikasirika wakajisemea, “Kwa nini kupoteza ovyo marashi haya?
And there were certain of the disciples, who were dissatisfied among themselves, and said: Why was this waste of the ointment?
5 Yangaliweza kuuzwa kwa fedha kiasi cha denari mia tatu, wakapewa maskini!” Wakamkemea huyo mama.
For it might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii, and been given to the poor. And they were indignant at her.
6 Lakini Yesu akawaambia, “Mwacheni; kwa nini mnamsumbua? Amenitendea jambo jema.
But Jesus said: Let her alone; why trouble ye her? She hath done an excellent act towards me.
7 Maskini mnao daima pamoja nanyi; mnaweza kuwasaidia wakati wowote mnaopenda. Lakini mimi sitakuwapo pamoja nanyi daima.
For the poor ye have always with you; and when ye please, ye can do them kind offices: but I am not always with you.
8 Yeye amefanya alivyoweza; ameupaka mwili wangu marashi kuutayarisha kwa maziko.
What was in her power, she hath done; and by anticipation, hath perfumed my body, as if for burial.
9 Nawaambieni kweli, popote ulimwenguni Habari Njema itakapohubiriwa, kitendo hiki alichofanya kitatajwa kwa ajili ya kumkumbuka.”
Verily I say to you, That wherever this my gospel shall be proclaimed, in all the world, this also which she hath done shall be told in memory of her.
10 Kisha Yuda Iskarioti, mmoja wa wale kumi na wawili, alienda kwa makuhani wakuu ili kumsaliti Yesu.
And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests, in order to betray Jesus to them.
11 Makuhani wakuu waliposikia habari hiyo, walifurahi, wakaahidi kumpa fedha. Basi, Yuda akaanza kutafuta nafasi ya kumsaliti Yesu.
And when they heard him, they rejoiced; and they promised to give him money. And he sought for opportunity to betray him.
12 Siku ya kwanza ya sikukuu ya Mikate Isiyotiwa Chachu, wakati ambapo mwana kondoo wa Pasaka huchinjwa, wanafunzi wake walimwuliza, “Wataka tukuandalie wapi karamu ya Pasaka?”
And on the first day of unleavened cakes, on which the Jews slay the passover, his disciples said to him: Where wilt thou that we go, and prepare for thee to eat the passover?
13 Basi Yesu akawatuma wawili wa wanafunzi wake akiwaambia, “Nendeni mjini, nanyi mtakutana na mtu anayebeba mtungi wa maji. Mfuateni
And he sent two of his disciples, and said to them: Go ye to the city, and behold, there will meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water. Go ye after him,
14 mpaka katika nyumba atakayoingia, mkamwambie mwenye nyumba, Mwalimu anasema: wapi chumba changu ambamo nitakula Pasaka pamoja na wanafunzi wangu?
and where he entereth in, say ye to the lord of the house: Our Rabbi saith, Where is the place of refreshment, in which I may eat the passover with my disciples?
15 Naye atawaonyesha chumba kikubwa ghorofani kilichotayarishwa na kupambwa. Tuandalieni humo.”
And lo, he will show you a large upper room, furnished and prepared: there make ready for us.
16 Wanafunzi wakaondoka, wakaenda mjini, wakakuta kila kitu sawa kama Yesu alivyokuwa amewaambia. Wakaandaa karamu ya Pasaka.
And his disciples went, and entered the city, and found as he had told them: and they made ready the passover.
17 Ilipokuwa jioni, Yesu alifika pamoja na wanafunzi wake kumi na wawili.
And when it was evening, he came with his twelve.
18 Walipokuwa mezani wakila, Yesu alisema, “Kweli nawaambieni, mmoja wenu anayekula pamoja nami, atanisaliti.”
And as they reclined and ate, Jesus said: Verily I say to you, That one of you that eateth with me, will betray me.
19 Hapo wanafunzi wake wakaanza kuhuzunika, wakamwuliza mmojammoja, “Je, ni mimi?”
And they began to be distressed. And they said to him, one by one, Is it I?
20 Yesu akawaambia, “Ni mmoja wenu ninyi kumi na wawili, anayechovya mkate pamoja nami katika bakuli.
And he said to them: It is one of the twelve that dippeth with me in the dish.
21 Kweli Mwana wa Mtu anakwenda zake kama Maandiko Matakatifu yanavyosema juu yake; lakini, ole wake mtu yule anayemsaliti Mwana wa Mtu! Ingalikuwa afadhali kwa mtu huyo kama hangalizaliwa!”
And the Son of man goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man, by whom the Son of man is betrayed. Better would it have been for that man, if he had not been born.
22 Walipokuwa wanakula, Yesu alitwaa mkate, akashukuru, akaumega na kuwapa wanafunzi wake akisema, “Twaeni; huu ni mwili wangu.”
And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake, and gave to them, and said to them: Take; this is my body.
23 Kisha akatwaa kikombe, akamshukuru Mungu, akawapa; nao wote wakanywa katika kikombe hicho.
And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and blessed, and gave to them. And they all drank of it.
24 Akawaambia, “Hii ni damu yangu inayothibitisha agano la Mungu, damu inayomwagwa kwa ajili ya watu wengi.
And he said to them: This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed in behalf of many.
25 Kweli nawaambieni, sitakunywa tena divai ya zabibu mpaka siku ile nitakapoinywa upya katika Ufalme wa Mungu.”
Verily I say to you, That I will not drink again of the product of the vine, until the day in which I shall drink it anew in the kingdom of God.
26 Kisha wakaimba wimbo, wakaondoka, wakaenda katika mlima wa Mizeituni.
And they sang praise, and went out to the mount of Olives.
27 Yesu akawaambia wanafunzi wake, “Ninyi nyote mtakuwa na mashaka nami; maana Maandiko Matakatifu yasema: Nitampiga mchungaji nao kondoo watatawanyika.
And Jesus said to them: All of you will this night be stumbled in me: for it is written, " I will smite the shepherd, and his sheep will be scattered."
28 Lakini nikisha fufuka, nitawatangulieni kule Galilaya.”
And when I am risen, I will precede you into Galilee.
29 Petro akamwambia “Hata kama wote watakuwa na mashaka nawe na kukuacha, mimi sitakukana kamwe!”
And Cephas said to him: Though they all should be stumbled, yet I will not be.
30 Yesu akamwambia, “Kweli nakwambia, usiku huu, kabla jogoo hajawika mara mbili, utanikana mara tatu.”
Jesus said to him: Verily I say to thee, That this day, on this night, before the cock shall crow twice, thou wilt thrice deny me.
31 Lakini Petro akasisitiza, “Hata kama ni lazima nife pamoja nawe, sitakuacha kamwe.” Wanafunzi wote pia wakasema vivyo hivyo.
And he said, in addition: If I were to die with thee, I will not deny thee, my Lord. And like him, spake all the disciples.
32 Basi, wakafika katika bustani iitwayo Gethsemane. Yesu akawaambia wanafunzi wake, “Kaeni hapa wakati mimi nasali.”
And they came to the place called Gethsemane; and he said to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I pray.
33 Kisha akawachukua Petro, Yakobo na Yohane; akaanza kufadhaika sana na kuhangaika.
And he took with him Cephas and James and John, and began to be gloomy and distressed.
34 Akawaambia, “Nina huzuni kubwa moyoni hata karibu kufa. Kaeni hapa mkeshe.”
And he said to them: My soul hath anguish, even to death. Wait for me here, and be watchful.
35 Akaenda mbele kidogo, akajitupa chini kifudifudi, akasali kwamba, kama ingewezekana, asiipitie saa hiyo ya mateso.
And he advanced a little, and fell upon the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.
36 Akasema, “Baba yangu, kwako mambo yote yanawezekana. Uniondolee kikombe hiki; lakini isiwe kama nitakavyo mimi, bali utakavyo wewe.”
And he said: Father, my Father, thou canst do all things. Let this cup pass from me. Yet not my pleasure, but thine.
37 Kisha akarudi kwa wanafunzi wale watatu, akawakuta wamelala. Basi, akamwuliza Petro, “Simoni, je umelala? Hukuweza kukesha hata saa moja?”
And he came and found them sleeping. And he said to Cephas: Sleepest thou, Simon? Couldst thou not watch with me one hour?
38 Kisha akawaambia, “Kesheni na kusali ili msije mkaingia katika majaribu. Roho i radhi, lakini mwili ni dhaifu.”
Watch and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit is willing and ready, but the body is weak.
39 Akaenda kusali tena akirudia maneno yaleyale.
And he went again and prayed, speaking the same language.
40 Kisha akarudi tena, akawakuta wamelala. Macho yao yalikuwa yamebanwa na usingizi. Hawakujua la kumjibu.
And returning he came again and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy. And they knew not what to say to him.
41 Alipowajia mara ya tatu aliwaambia, “Mnalala bado na kupumzika? Sasa imetosha! Saa imefika! Mwana wa Mtu anakabidhiwa kwa watu waovu.
And he came the third time, and said to them: Sleep on now, and take rest. The end is near; the hour is come; and lo, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
42 Amkeni, twendeni zetu. Tazameni, yule atakayenisaliti amekaribia.”
Arise ye; let us go. Lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand.
43 Yesu alipokuwa bado anasema, Yuda, mmoja wa wale kumi na wawili, akafika pamoja na umati wa watu wenye mapanga na marungu. Watu hao walikuwa wametumwa na makuhani wakuu, walimu wa Sheria na wazee.
And while he was yet speaking, Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, arrived, and much people, with swords and clubs, from before the chief priests and Scribes and Elders
44 Msaliti Yuda alikuwa amewapa ishara: “Yule nitakayembusu ndiye; mkamateni, mkampeleke chini ya ulinzi.”
And the traitor who betrayed him, had given them a sign, and said: He whom I shall kiss is the man. Seize promptly, and lead him away
45 Yuda alipofika tu, alimwendea Yesu moja kwa moja, akasema, “Mwalimu!” Kisha akambusu.
And immediately he came up, and said to him: Rabbi, Rabbi; and kissed him.
46 Basi, hao watu wakamkamata Yesu, wakamtia nguvuni.
And they laid hands on him and took him.
47 Mmoja wa wale waliokuwa wamesimama hapo pamoja na Yesu akauchomoa upanga wake, akampiga mtumishi wa Kuhani Mkuu, akamkata sikio.
And one of them that stood by, drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.
48 Yesu akawaambia, “Je, mmekuja na mapanga na marungu kunikamata kana kwamba mimi ni mnyang'anyi?
And Jesus answered and said to them: Have ye come out against me, as against a robber; with swords and clubs, to apprehend me?
49 Kila siku nilikuwa pamoja nanyi nikifundisha Hekaluni, wala hamkunikamata. Lakini sasa lazima Maandiko Matakatifu yatimie.”
I was daily with you, while I taught in the temple, and ye seized me not. But this occurs, that the scriptures may be fulfilled.
50 Hapo wanafunzi wote wakamwacha, wakakimbia.
Then his disciples left him and fled.
51 Kulikuwa na kijana mmoja aliyekuwa anamfuata Yesu akiwa amevaa shuka. Nao wakajaribu kumkamata.
And a young man followed after him, who was clad with a linen cloth on his naked body: and they laid hold of him.
52 Lakini yeye akaponyoka, akaiachilia ile shuka, akakimbia uchi.
And he left the linen cloth, and fled naked.
53 Basi, wakampeleka Yesu kwa Kuhani Mkuu ambapo makuhani wakuu wote, wazee na walimu wa Sheria walikuwa wamekutanika.
And they led away Jesus to Caiaphas the high priest. And with him were assembled all the chief priests and the Scribes and the Elders.
54 Petro alimfuata Yesu kwa mbali, akaingia ndani ya ya wa Kuhani Mkuu, akaketi pamoja na walinzi akiota moto.
And Simon followed after him, at a distance; into the hall of the high priest; and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself by the fire.
55 Makuhani wakuu na Baraza lote wakatafuta ushahidi wa kumshtaki Yesu wapate kumwua, lakini hawakupata.
And the chief priests and all the assembly sought for testimony against Jesus, to put him to death: but they found it not.
56 Watu wengi walitoa ushahidi wa uongo juu ya Yesu, lakini ushahidi wao haukupatana.
For while many testified against him, their testimonies were inadequate.
57 Kisha wengine walisimama, wakatoa ushahidi wa uongo wakisema:
And some false witnesses stood up against him, and said:
58 “Tulimsikia mtu huyu akisema, Nitaliharibu Hekalu hili lililojengwa kwa mikono, na kwa siku tatu nitajenga lingine lisilojengwa kwa mikono.”
We have heard him say: I will destroy this temple, which is made with hands; and in three days I will build another not made with hands.
59 Lakini hata hivyo, ushahidi wao haukupatana.
Nor even thus were their testimonies adequate.
60 Basi, Kuhani Mkuu akasimama katikati yao, akamwuliza Yesu, “Je, hujibu neno? Watu hawa wanashuhudia nini dhidi yako?”
And the high priest arose in the midst, and interrogated Jesus and said: Returnest thou no answer? What do these testify against thee?
61 Lakini yeye akakaa kimya; hakusema hata neno moja. Kuhani Mkuu akamwuliza tena, “Je, wewe ndiwe Kristo, Mwana wa Mungu Mtukufu?”
And Jesus was silent, and made no reply. And again the chief priest interrogated him, and said: Art thou the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed?
62 Yesu akajibu, “Naam, mimi ndiye. Tena, mtamwona Mwana wa Mtu amekaa upande wa kulia wa Mwenyezi, akija katika mawingu ya mbinguni.”
And Jesus said to him: I am. And ye will see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and he will come on the clouds of heaven.
63 Hapo Kuhani Mkuu akararua joho lake, akasema, “Tuna haja gani tena ya mashahidi?
And the high priest rent his tunic, and said: What need of witnesses have we, any more?
64 Mmesikia kufuru yake! Ninyi mwaonaje?” Wote wakaamua kwamba anastahili kuuawa.
Behold, from his own mouth ye have heard blasphemy. How doth it appear to you? And they all decided, that he deserved to die.
65 Basi, baadhi yao wakaanza kumtemea mate, wakamfunika uso, wakampiga na kumwambia, “Bashiri ni nani aliyekupiga!” Hata watumishi wakamchukua, wakampiga makofi.
And some began to spit in his face, and to buffet him, saying: Prophesy thou. And the servants smote him on the cheeks.
66 Petro alipokuwa bado chini ukumbini, mmoja wa wajakazi wa kuhani Mkuu alikuja.
And as Simon was below in the court, a maid of the high priest came,
67 Alipomwona Petro akiota moto, alimtazama, akamwambia, “Hata wewe ulikuwa pamoja na Yesu Mnazareti.”
and saw him warming himself; and she looked upon him, and said to him: And thou too wast with Jesus the Nazarean.
68 Lakini Petro akakana, “Sijui, wala sielewi unayosema!” Kisha Petro akaondoka, akaenda nje uani. Hapo jogoo akawika.
But he denied, and said: l know not what thou sayest. And he went out into the porch; and the cock crew.
69 Yule mjakazi alipomwona tena Petro, akaanza tena kuwaambia watu waliokuwa wamesimama hapo, “Mtu huyu ni mmoja wao.”
And the maid saw him again, and she began to say to those standing by, This man also is one of them.
70 Petro akakana tena. Baadaye kidogo, watu waliokuwa wamesimama hapo wakamwambia Petro, “Hakika wewe ni mmoja wao, maana wewe ni Mgalilaya.”
And he again denied it. And a little after, those standing there said again to Cephas: Surely, thou art one of them; for thou art likewise a Galilean, and thy speech answers to it.
71 Lakini Petro akaanza kulaani na kuapa akisema, “Mimi simjui mtu huyu mnayesema habari zake.”
And he began to imprecate, and swore: I know not that man, of whom ye speak.
72 Hapo jogoo akawika mara ya pili. Basi, Petro akakumbuka jinsi Yesu alivyokuwa amemwambia: “Kabla jogoo hajawika mara mbili, utanikana mara tatu.” Petro akabubujika machozi.
And immediately the cock crew the second time. And Simon remembered the declaration of Jesus, who said to him: Before the cock shall crow twice, thou wilt thrice deny me. And he began to weep.
