Luuka 23
1 ilipugha lyoni vakima vakantwala uYesu pavulongolo pa Pilato.
Then the whole crowd of them rose up and led Him to Pilate.
2 vakatengula kukumuligha viti, tumwaghile umuunhu uju ikujisofia iisi jitu, ikutukana kuhumia isongo kwa Kaisali, kange ijova kuuti umwene ghwe Kilisite uNtwa.
And they began to accuse Him, saying, “We found this fellow perverting the nation and forbidding to pay taxes to Caesar, declaring himself to be Christ, a king.”
3 uPilato akamposia akati, “vuli uve veve Ntwa ghwa vayahidi? uYesu akamwamula akati, “veve ghujova ndikio?”
So Pilate questioned Him, saying, “Are you the king of the Jews?” In reply He said to him, “You said it!”
4 UPilato akam'bula um'baha ghwa vatekesi nilipugha, “nanikughwagha unkole ghwa muunhu uju”.
Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, “I find no guilt in this man.”
5 avele ihovelesia avaanhu avulanisie muvuyahudi mwoni, atengulile ku Galilaya lino pwale kuno”.
But they insisted, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to here.”
6 uPilato ye apulike agha, akaposia nave umuunhu uju ghwa kuGalilaya?
When Pilate heard ‘Galilee’, he asked if the man was a Galilean.
7 ye akagwile kuuti kuuti ali mu vutwa vwa Helode, akantwala u Yesu kwa Helode, ulwakuva ifighono ifio.
Upon learning that He belonged to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem during those days.
8 uHelode ati amwaghile uYesu, akahovoka kyongo ulwakuva ifighono finga akalondagha kukum'bona. akapulika imola sako akahuvilagha kulola ikidegho kimo kino kivombelua nu mwene.
Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was really pleased, because for a long time he had been wanting to see Him, having heard so many things about Him; and he was hoping to see some miracle performed by Him.
9 uHelode akamposia uYesu amasio minga neke uYesu nakavamula kyokyoni.
He questioned Him with many words, but He gave him no answer.
10 avavaha vavatekesi na vavulanisi va ndaghilo vakima ni ng'alasi kukumuligha.
On their part, the high priests and scribes stood by, vehemently accusing Him.
11 uHelode palikimo na vasikali vake, vakamuligha na kumbenafula, vakamfasia amenda amanono, pepano akan'gomosia uYesu kwa Pilato.
Then Herod and his soldiers, after ridiculing and mocking Him, arrayed Him in a gorgeous robe and sent Him back to Pilate.
12 uHelode nu Pilato vakavisagha vamanyani kutengulila ikighono ikio [ulwakwasia valyale valugu].
(That very day Pilate and Herod became friends with each other—previously having been at odds with each other.)
13 uPilato akavakemela palikimo avatekesi na avavaha na ni lipugha lya vaanhu,
Then Pilate, having called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
14 akavavula akati, “muniletile umuunhu uju ndavule umuunhu juno ilongosia avaanhu kuvomba imbivi, lolagha nitile nimposie pavulongolo pa maaso ghinu nanighwaghile un'kole kwa muunhu uju ku ghoni ghano umue mukumuhigha umwene.
said to them: “You have brought this man to me as one who misleads the people, and yet, having examined him in your presence, I have found no guilt in this man as to those things of which you accuse him.
15 ndali, ghwope uHelode ulwakuva alyan'gomwisie kulyusue, loola nakwekili kimonga kino avombile, kino kikumpelela afue.
Further, neither did Herod (for I sent you on to him); indeed, nothing deserving of death has been done by him.
16 pe lino nikun'kopa na kukumulekesia.
I will therefore flog and release him.”
(It was necessary for him to release one to them at the feast.)
18 neke vooni palikimo vakova vakati, “m'busie ujuo un'dindulile uBalaba
But they all cried out together, saying: “Away with this one! Release to us Barabbas!”—
19 uBalaba alyale muunhu juno avikilue mu ndinde ulwakuva alyavombile uvuhosi vumonga mu lipulo na kwa kubuda.
who had been thrown into prison for a certain insurrection in the city, and for murder.
20 uPilato akavavula kange nilonda kumulekesia uYesu.
Then Pilate, wanting to release Jesus, addressed them again.
21 neke aveene vakajeghelagha viti, unkomelele, unkomelele”.
But they just kept shouting: “Crucify! Crucify him!”
22 akavaposia ulwa vutatu, neke umuunhu uju avombile uvuhosi vuki?” nanikughwagha unkole ghuno ghukun'twalila abudue. lino ningamale kun'tova nikumulekesia.
For the third time he said to them: “But what evil has this man done? I have found no reason for death in him. I will therefore flog and release him.”
23 neke vakaghina kukwov, vilonda kuuti, akomelelue. neke ilyovo lyake likamwitikisia uPilato.
But they were insistent, demanding with loud voices that He be crucified! And their voices, especially of the chief priests, prevailed.
24 pepano uPilato akalamula kuvomba ndafu muvufumbue vwake.
So Pilate decided to grant their demand.
25 akamulekesia juno valyaneelile juno alyadindilue mulywa kupela ilibaatu na kubuda. neke akantavula uYesu ndavule mundondele saake.
He released the one who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, the one they asked for; but he delivered Jesus to their will.
26 ye vikuntwala vakankola umuunhu jumo itambulua ghwe Simoni juno akahuma mu iisi ija Kilene, vakam'beghasia ikikovekano neke ipinde kumbingilila uYesu.
Now as they led Him away, they conscripted a certain Simon of Cyrene (coming in from a field), and put the cross on him to carry it behind Jesus.
27 ilipugha lya vaanhu navakijuva vano valyale vilila na kusukunala vwimila vwake navambingililagha.
A considerable crowd of people followed Him, including women who were also mourning and lamenting Him.
28 neke akansyetukila, uYesu akavavula,”avahinja va muyelusalemumulekaghe kundilila uneloli mulilaghe vwimila mu lyumue na vwimila mu vaanha vinu.
So Jesus turned to them and said: “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me; rather weep for yourselves and for your children.
29 lola ifighono fikwisa fino viliti, “vafunyilue vano vaghumba na maleme ghano naghapapile, na mavele ghano naghong'ilisie”
Because indeed, the days are coming in which they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren, even the wombs that never bore and the breasts that never nursed!’
30 pepano vatengula kufivula ifidunda kuuti, “tughile ni fidunda mutukupike” ulwakuva
Then they will begin ‘to say to the mountains, “Fall on us!” and to the hills, “Cover us!”’
31 nave vivomba agha ku umwighu, pe luliva ndani ku ghuno ghumile?”
For if they do these things in the ‘green tree’, what will happen in the ‘dry’?”
32 avaghosi avange avahosi vavili vakantwalagha palikimo nu mwene neke vabudue.
There were also two others, criminals, led with Him to be put to death.
33 ye vafikile pano vatambuluagha Lung'ala lwa muunhu, pepano pepano vakavakomelela palikimo na vahosi vala. jumo ulubale lwa kundio nujunge ulubale ulwa kung'ighi.
When they arrived at the place called ‘The Skull’, they crucified Him there; also the criminals, one on His right, the other on His left.
34 uYesu akam'bula, “Nhaata uvasaghile ulwakuva sino vivomba navasitaghinie “. voope vakatova ulusudolekughava amenda ghake.
Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing”; while they were dividing up His clothes by casting a lot.
35 avaanhu vakima kumo vikuvalola avavaha vuno vikumuhigha, na kuti, “alyavapokile avange na lino ipoke jujuo nave umwene ghwe Kiliste ghwa Nguluve Mwimike”.
Meanwhile the people stood looking on. And especially the rulers among them were sneering, saying, “He saved others; let him save himself, if such is the Christ, the chosen of God!”
36 avasikali voope vakam'benapula, vakam'belelela na kukumpela, isiki,
Yes, even the soldiers mocked Him, approaching and offering Him sour wine,
37 vakatisagha,”nave uve uli Ntwa ghwa vaYahudi ipoke juve ghwemwene”
and saying, “If you are the king of the Jews, save yourself!”
38 kwekulyale kange ni kivalilo kwa mwene kino kilembilue “UJU GHWE MUTWA GHWA VAYAHUDI”.
In fact, above Him there was a written notice, in Greek, Latin and Hebrew letters: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
39 umuhosi jumo juno akakemelilue akamuligha akati,” uve na veve Kilisite? ghupoke juve neke najusue”
Then one of the hanged criminals started berating Him, saying, “If you are the Christ, save yourself and us!”
40 neke ujunge jula akamwamula, akan'dalikila akati, “ghwe, uve naghukumwoghopa uNguluve, najuve uli muluhighilo luliku?
But the other reacted and rebuked him, saying: “Don't you even fear God, since you are under the same condemnation?
41 usue pwetule bahapa musakilweli, ulwakuva usue twukupila kinokinoghile ku maghendele ghitu. neke umuunhu uju naavombile ikivivi kyokyoni.
And we indeed justly, for we are receiving the due reward for our deeds; but this man did nothing wrong.”
42 pe akongelesia kuuti,”Yesu ung'umbukaghe kyale ghukwingila mu vutwa vwako”.
Then he said to Jesus, “Please remember me, Lord, when you come in your kingdom.”
43 uYesu akam'bula, kyang'haani nikukuvula, umusyughu ghuva nune ku Paladis”.
Jesus said to him, “I tell you assuredly, today you will be with me in Paradise.”
44 apuo jikale pipi nu n'tanda pa mwisi ing'isi jikisa jikakupikila iisi jooni kufikila ikivalilo ikya busika lubale”
Now it was about the sixth hour, and darkness came upon the whole land until the ninth hour.
45 ulumuli lwa lijuva lukasimile, pe baho umwenda ughwa nyumba inyimike ja kufunyila ghukademuka pakate kutengulila kukyanya.
Yes, the sun was darkened; also, the veil of the temple was torn in two.
46 pe uYesu akalila fiijo akati,” ghwe Nhaata nivika umwoojo ghwango mumavoko ghako” ye ajovile aghuo akafua.
Then, after giving a loud shout, Jesus said, “Father, it is into your hands that I will commit my spirit.” And having said this, He breathed out His spirit.
47 uAkida ye asivwene sino sivombike akamughinia uNguluve akati, “kyang'haani umuunhu uju akale mugholofu.”
Well upon seeing what had happened, the centurion glorified God, saying, “Certainly this man was righteous!”
48 unsiki ilipugha ilya vaanhu vano vakisile sino sivombeka vakati vasivwene, vakagomoka kuno vikutovatova pafifuva fyave.
And the whole crowd that had gathered for the spectacle, when they saw what actually happened, went away beating their breasts.
49 neke avamanyani vake navakijuva vano valyale vikumbingilila kuhuma ku Galilaya, valyimile patali vilola sino sivombeka.
But all His acquaintances, including the women who had followed Him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching these things.
50 lola, kwealyale umuunhu juno ghwope muli balasa akatambulwagha Yosefu juno alyale ghwope muli balasa, umuunhu unono nu nya kyang'haani.
Now then, there was a man named Joseph, a good and righteous man, a Council member
51 akale naiting'inie na masaghe na maghendele ghave], kuhuma ku Alimataya, umpulo ghwa kiYahudi ghuno ghulyale ghughulila uvutwa vwa Nguluve.
(but he had not agreed with their counsel and action), from Arimathea, a city of the Jews, who himself was waiting for the Kingdom of God:
52 umuunhu uju akam'belelela uPilato akansuuma am'pele um'bili ghwa Yesu.
this man went to Pilate and asked for Jesus' body.
53 akamwisia na kunsyungukisia umwenda um'blafu akam'ka mumbipa jini jilyabughulike muli nalavue lino nakwale juno aghele kusyulua.
Then he took it down, wrapped it in linen, and placed it in a tomb cut out of rock, where no one had ever been laid.
54 kilyale kighono kya kuling'ania ni sabati jilyale pipi.
It was a Preparation day; the Sabbath was drawing near.
55 avakijuva vano vakisile navope kuhuma ku Galilaya, vakalongosinie, vakajagha imbipa ghwene um'bili ghwake vaghughonisie.
The women who had come with Him from Galilee followed along, and they saw the tomb and how His body was placed there.
56 vakagomoka na kutengula kutengelela amafuta gano ghinikilila, neke pakighono ikya Sabati vakapuma ndavule uvutavike vwa ndaghilo.
Then they returned and prepared spices and perfumes. But they rested on the Sabbath according to the commandment.
