Mataayi 27
1 Palwakilo ye kukiile avavaha vooni ava vatekesi na vagoyo vakapuling'hana vule kya vikum'buda u Yesu.
When early morning came, all the chief priests and elders plotted against Jesus to kill Him.
2 Vakankunga, vakaluta naghwope kwa Pilato, untwa ghwave uMulooma.
And having bound Him they went and handed Him over to Pontius Pilate, the governor.
3 U Yuda umwolesi ye avwene uYesu ahighilue kuuti abudue akipiika vwimila sino avombile. Pe akavagomokesia avavaha va vatekesi na vagoyo indalama sila fijigho fitatu.
(Then Judas, His betrayer, seeing that He had been condemned, felt regret and returned the thirty silver coins to the chief priests and elders
4 Akavavuula akati,”Nivombile inyivi kukumwohela umuunhu unsila nkole.”Neke aveene vakati,”Inongua ijio jaako juuve usue nakwetule.”
saying, “I sinned, by betraying innocent blood.” But they said: “What do we care? It's your problem!”
5 Pe umwene akasitagha indalama sila muluviika lwa nyumba inyimike ijakufunyila akaluta kukukunga.
So throwing the silver down in the sanctuary he left, and went and hanged himself!
6 Avavaha va vatekesi vakatoola indalama sila vakati,”Nalunoghile kuviika indalama isi munyumba inyimike ija Nguluve, ulwakuuva siveele sihombilue kukuung'a idanda ja muunhu.”
Then the chief priests took the coins and said, “It isn't lawful to put them into the treasury, being blood money.”
7 Pe vakapuling'hana, vakatoola indalama sila vakaghula umughunda ughwa m'bumba fijigha kuuti mwe vanyisilaghe avahesia.
So after consultation they bought the potter's field with them, as a burial ground for strangers.
8 Fye nambe umughunda ughuo nambe lino,”ghutambulua mughunda ghwa Danda.”
Therefore that field has been called ‘field of blood’ to this day.
9 Mu uluo likava likwilanisivue ilisio lino um'bili uYeremia alyalembile kuuti,”Valyatolile indalama ifijigho fitatu, sino a Vaisilaeli valyiting'hiine kuuti indalama isio sikwiline kughulila umuunhu ujuo.
Then was fulfilled what was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet, namely: “And they took the thirty silver coins, the value of the one who was priced, whom some of the children of Israel priced,
10 Vakaghulila umughunda ghwa m'bumba fivigha ndavule alyandaghiile u Mutwa.
and they gave them for the potter's field, just as the Lord directed me.”)
11 Pepano u Yesu akiima pa vuhighi pa ntwa u Pilato. Untwa akamposia akati,”Asi, uve veeve ntwa ghwa Vayahudi?”U Yesu akamwamula akati,”Uve ujovile.”
So Jesus stood before the governor. And the governor asked Him saying, “Are you the king of the Jews?” Jesus said to him, “As you say.”
12 Pe avavaha va vatekesi na vagoyo vakatengula kujova si nyinga isa kumpelela u Yesu ahighue neke umwene naakamula kimonga.
But although the chief priests and elders kept accusing Him, He answered nothing.
13 Pepano untwa akamposia akati,”Ghwe naghupulika isi sooni sino vikwoleka kuuti uhokile?”
Then Pilate says to Him, “Don't you hear all that they are saying against you?”
14 U Yesu naalyamwamwile kimonga. Apuo untwa u Pilato akadegha kyongo.
But He did not answer him, not even one word, so that the governor was really amazed.
15 Lwale lwiho kwa ntwa pa kyimike ikya Pasaka kukun'dindulila unkungua jumo juno avaanhu vilonda kuuti ahume.
Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to release one prisoner to the crowd, whomever they wanted.
16 Unsiki ughuo mu ndinde mwe alyale unkungua jumonga juno akatambuluagha Balaba. Unkungua ujuo alyakagulike fiijo vwimila uvuhosi vwake.
Just then they had a notorious prisoner called Barabbas.
17 Lino avaanhu ye vakong'hanile, u Pilato akavamposia akati,”Asi, mu vakungua vavili ava, u Balaba nu Yesu juno viiti ghwe Kilisite mulonda nivadindulile veeni?”
So while they were assembled Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to release to you, Barabbas or Jesus who is called Messiah?”
18 U Pilato alyavaposisie uluo ulwakuuva alyakagwile kuutiavavaha va Vayahudi valyale ni kivini nu Yesu, fye nambe valyantwalile kwa mwene kuuti ahighue.
For he knew that they had handed Him over through envy.
19 U Pilato ye ikalile pa kitengo kyake ikya vuhighi, un'dala ghwake akasung'ha imhola kwa mwene akati,”Nungam'bombelaghe uluviivi lumonga umuunhu ujuo umugholofu, ulwakuva pakilo nihangajiike kyongo mu njosi vwimila umwene.”
Now as he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him saying, “Have nothing to do with that righteous man, because I suffered a great deal in a dream today because of Him.”
20 Neke avavaha va vatekesi na vagoyo vakavahonga avaanhu kuuti vansuume u Pilato an'dindule u Balaba na kukumhigha u Yesu kuuti abadue.
But the chief priests and elders had persuaded the crowds that they should ask for Barabbas, but destroy Jesus.
21 U Pilato akavaposia kange akati,”Ghwe veeni juno mulonda nin'dindulile mu vakungua vavili ava?”Vakamwamula vakati,”UBalaba.”
So the governor spoke up and said to them, “Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” And they said, “Barabbas!”
22 U Pilato akavamposiankange akati, Pe nim'bombe kiki u Yesu juno viiti ghwe Kilisite?”Avaanhu vooni vakoova vakati,”Unkomelele pa kikivekano”
Pilate says to them, “What then shall I do with Jesus who is called Messiah?” They all say to him, “Let Him be crucified!”
23 U Pilato akavamposia kange akati,”Umuunhu uju avombile luviivibluki?”Aveene vakaghina kukwova viuti,”Unkomelele pa kikovekano.”
So the governor said, “But, what evil did He do?” But they kept yelling all the more saying, “Let Him be crucified!”
24 U Pilato ye akagwile kuuti naangandule uvulamusi vwa vaanhu kange vatengwile, ilyovo akatoola amalenga akoogha amavokonghaake pamaaso gha vaanhu, vooni kuvonia kuuti umwene namwale mu nkole ughuo. Akavavula akati,”Une nili nsila nkole vwimila kufua kwa umuunhu uju. Uluo lwinu jumue.”
When Pilate saw that nothing was being gained but rather a riot was starting, he took water and washed his hands in front of the crowd saying: “I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man. It's your problem!”
25 Avaanhu voonivakamwamula vakati,”Unkole ughwa kum'buda umuunhu ujuo ghuvisaghe ghwitu na vaana viitu.”
So in answer all the people said, “His blood be upon us and upon our children!”
26 Pe pano u Pilato akan'dindulila uBalaba, neke akalaghila kuuti u Yesu akopue ni mijeledi na kukomelelua pa kikovekano.
Then he released Barabbas to them, but Jesus, after flogging Him, he delivered to be crucified.
27 Pepano avasikali va ntwa u Pilato vakatwala u Yesu mu luviika lwa nyumba ja ntwa, pe ikipugha kyoni ikya vasikali kikakong'hona, kikansyungutila u Yesu.
Then the governor's soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium and gathered the whole garrison around Him.
28 Vakamfuula amenda ghaake, vakafwasia isopeka indangali, ndavule ija kitwa.
They stripped Him and put a scarlet cloak on Him.
29 Pe vakatenda ingeela ija mifua, vakafwasia ku mutu, neke vakaviika ulukwegho mu luvoko lwake ulwa ndio avonekaghe hwene ntwa. Pepano vakafughama pamaaso ghaake vikum'benapula na kukunnenela viiti,”Kamwene ghwe Ntwa ghwa Vayahudi?”
They plaited a crown out of thorns and put it on His head, and a reed in His right hand; and kneeling before Him they would mock Him saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
30 Pe vakafuunyila amati, Vakatoola ulukwegho lula mu luvoko lwake, vakantova ku mutu.
Spitting on Him they took the reed and hit Him repeatedly on the head.
31 Ye vannennile, vakamfuula isopeka jila, vakafwasia amenda ghaake. Pepano vakantwala kukunkomelela pa kikovekano.
After they had mocked Him they took the cloak off Him and put His own clothes back on; and they led Him away to be crucified.
32 Ye vali mu sila viluta, vakatang'hana nu muunhu jumonga juno akatambuluagha Simoni, umhuma mu likaaja ilya Kileene. Avasikali vakamwumilisia kupinda ikikovekano kya Yesu.
Now as they went out they found a man of Cyrene, named Simon; they compelled him to carry His cross.
33 Ye vafikile pano pakatambuluagha Goligota, kwe kuuti,”Ling'ala lya Mutu,”
Upon arriving at a place called Golgotha, which means ‘place of a skull’,
34 Vakampeela uluhuuje uluhasing'hanie nu nkota ughwa kusilisia uvuvafi. Neke ye avonjile, akakaana kunyua.
they gave Him sour wine mixed with gall to drink; but having tasted it He would not drink.
35 Vakankomelela pa kikovekano, pe vakaviika ulusodolelo kuuti amenda gha Yesu atoole veeni. Likavombeka enendiki neke likwilanisivue ilisio lino lilyajovilue nu m'bili kuuti, Vaghaviine amenda ghango, vasodolile mulwa kutoola isopeka jango.”
Having crucified Him they divided up His clothes by casting lots.
36 Pe vakikala palapala kuuti vamulolelelaghe.
And sitting down there they guarded Him.
37 Pa kikovekano ku mutu ghwake vakakomelela,”UJU GHWE YESU, UNTWA GHWA VAYAHUDi.”
And they put the charge against Him over His head in writing: THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 Unsiki ghughuo avaanhu avange vavili vano valyale vahijivabudi vakakomelelua palikimo nu Yesu, jumonga akava ulubale lwake ulwa kundio, ujunge kung'highi.
Then they crucified two bandits with Him, one on His right and one on His left.
39 Avaanhu vano vakava vikila pala vakasukaniagha amatu ghaake, vikumuligha viiti,
And the passers-by kept blaspheming Him, wagging their heads
40 Uve ghwe juno ghwatisagha ghulimemula inyumba inyimike ija Nguluve neke ghujenga ifighono fitatu, nave uli Mwana ghwa Nguluve, Ghupoke, ghwke pa kikovekano!”
and saying: “You who destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save yourself!” “If you are ‘Son of God’, come down from the cross!”
41 Voope avavaha va vatekesi na vavulanisi va ndaghilo isa Moose palikimo na vagoyo avange vakamwovelelagha vakatisagha,”
Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the scribes and elders and Pharisees, said:
42 Avapokaghava avange, lino ikunua kukupoka jujuo! Asi, naghwe ntwa ghwa Vaisilaeli, lino iike pa kikovekano, neke na jusue tumwitike.
“He saved others; himself he cannot save!” “If he is ‘King of Israel’ let him come down from the cross now and we will believe him!”
43 U mwene ikumhuviila ubNguluve, iiti Mwana ghwa Nguluve, lino nave u Nguluve amughanile, ampoke.”
“He trusted in God; let Him rescue him now, if He wants him; for he said, ‘I am God's Son.’”
44 Nava vahijivabudi vanovvakomelilue palikimo nu Yesu, voope vakamuligha.
Even the bandits who were crucified with Him were reviling Him in the same way.
45 Kutenguala akavalilo aka ntanda pamwisi, ing'hisi jikakupiika iisi jooni kuhanga kufika akavalilo aka budika lubale.
Now from the sixth hour until the ninth hour a darkness came over all the land.
46 Unsiki ughwa kavalilo aka budika lubale ndiiki u Yesu akakoola fiijo akati, Eloi, Eloi, lamacsabakitani? kwe kuuti,”Nguluve ghwango, Nguluve ghwango ongo undekile?”
And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice saying, “Eli, Eli, lima sabachtani?” which means, “My God, my God, why have You abandoned me?”
47 Avaanhu vamonga vano valyimile pala ye vapulike u Yesu ijova amasio aghuo vakati,”Uju ikunkemeela um'bili u Eliya.”
So upon hearing it some of the bystanders said, “This man is calling Elijah.”
48 Unsiki ghuoghuo umuunhu jumonga mu veene akaluta luvilo akatoola ikyenda, akasuvika mu luhuje ulukali akakiviika mu lulaasi akam'besekesia u Yesubpa mulomo kuuti amiime.
Right then one of them ran and took a sponge, filled it with sour wine, put it on a reed and started to give Him a drink;
49 Neke avange vala vakati,”Uleke kukumpeela tulole nave u Eliya ikwisa kukumpoka,”
but the rest said: “Don't! Let's see if Elijah comes to save Him.”
50 Pe u Yesu akakoola fiijo kange, akakunguka.
Then Jesus called out again with a great shout and dismissed His spirit.
51 Nakalingi, umwenda ghuno ghulyaghavilue pavili inyumba inyimike ija Nguluve, ghukademuka pavili kuhuma kukyanya kiufika paasi. Iisi jikasukanika na manhalavue ghakabajuka.
And then, the veil of the temple was ripped in two from top to bottom! And the earth was shaken, and the rocks were split,
52 Imbiipa sikasyiluka, avimike vinga vano valyafwile vakasyuka.
and the graves were opened. (And many bodies, of the saints who had fallen asleep, were raised;
53 Pa mbele u Yesu ye asyukile, avimike avuo vakingila mu likaaja ilyimike ilya Yelusalemu, vakavoneka ku vaanhu vinga.
and coming forth out of the graves after His resurrection, they entered the holy city and were made visible to many.)
54 Pe um'baha ghwa vasikali palikimo na vala vano valyale vikumulolellela u Yesu ye vavwene iisi jisukanika ni singi sino sikahumiile pala, vakoghopa kyongo, vakati,”Kyang'hani umuunhu uju akaale Mwana ghwa Nguluve.
Now when the centurion and those with him guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and all that happened they were scared stiff and said, “This Man really was the Son of God!”
55 “Ye sivombike isi sooni, pwevalyale avakijuuva vinga vano valyimile patali padebe vilola. Avakijuuva avuo ve vano vakam'bingilile u Yesu kuhuma ku Galilaya na kukutengelela.
Many women who followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to Him, were also there looking on from a distance;
56 Mu vakijuuva avuo, mwealyale uMaliya umhuma mu likaaja ilya Magidala, uMaliya ung'hina ghwa Yakovo nu Yosefu palikimo nu un'dala ghwa Sebedaayi.
among whom were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
57 Ye jifikile ivwilile, akiisa umuunhu jumonga ummofu, ilitavua lyake alyale ghwe Yosefu, umhuma mu likaaja ilya Alimataya. Umuunhu ujuo alyale m'bulanisivua ghwa Yesu.
Now at evening there appeared a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who himself had also become a disciple of Jesus.
58 U Yosefu akaluta kwa Pilato kusuuma umfimba ghwa Yesu. U Pilato akavavuula avasikali vaake liiuuti vampeele umfimba ghula
This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered that the body be given.
59 Pepano u Yosefu akaluta akatoola umfimba ghwa Yesu akaghuniengelela nu mwenda ughwa kusyilila, um'balafu.
So taking the body Joseph wrapped it in clean linen cloth
60 Pe akaghuviika mu mbiipa jaake imia jino alyabughwile mu linhalavue, akabilukisia ilivue ilikome pa mulyango ghwa mbiipa akavuka iluta.
and placed it in his own new tomb that he had cut out of the rock. Then he rolled a large stone against the door of the tomb and left.
61 Unsiki ughuo u Maliya umhuma mu likaaja ilya Magidala nu Maliya ujunge valikalile pala valungiime ku mbiipa.
And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the grave.
62 Ikighono ikya vuvili kino kyale kya sabati, avavaha va vatekesi na vafalisayi vakakong'hana kwa Pilato.
The next day, which is after the Preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees went together to Pilate
63 Pe vakam'bula vakati,”Ghwe ntwa, tukumbuka kuuti unsyangi jula ye mwumi, akajovile kuuti, Fingakile ifighono fitatu kuhuma nifua nisyuka.'
saying: “Sir, we remember that that deceiver, while still alive, said, ‘After three days I am going to rise.’
64 Lino, tusuuma avavuule avasikali vaako valolelelaghe imbiipa kuhanga ikighono ikya vutatu, tungaleke kuvomba ulu, avavulanisivua vaake ndepoonu viluta kuhiija um'bili ghwake neke vavasyange avaanhu kuuti asyukile. Nave luvembeke uluo, uvudesi uvuo vuuva vuviivi kukila uvwa kwanda.
Therefore command that the grave be made secure until the third day, lest His disciples come by night and steal Him and say to the people, ‘He was raised from the dead,’ and the last deception will be worse than the first.”
65 U Pilato akavamula akati,”Mutoole avasikali. Mulute mulolelelaghe imbiipa ku ngufu siinu sooni.”
So Pilate said to them, “You have a guard; go make it as secure as you can!”
66 Pepano vakaluta ku mbiipa, vakaviika ikivalilo pa livue kuuti napwengavisaghe umunhu ughwa kuvungulusia. Pe vakavaleka pala avasikali kuuti valolelelaghe.
So they went and secured the grave with the guard, having sealed the stone.
