Matthew 26
1 Nígbà tí Jesu ti parí ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀, ó wí fún wọn pé,
Now it happened that after Jesus had finished all these discourses, he said to his disciples,
2 “Bí ẹ̀yin tí mọ̀ ní ọjọ́ méjì sí i, àjọ ìrékọjá yóò bẹ̀rẹ̀. Àti pé, a ó fi Ọmọ Ènìyàn lé wọn lọ́wọ́, a ó sì kàn mí mọ́ àgbélébùú.”
"You know that the Passover is coming in two days, and the Son of man will be delivered up to be crucified."
3 Ní àsìkò tí Jesu ń sọ̀rọ̀ yìí, àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn àgbàgbà kó ara wọn jọ ní ààfin olórí àlùfáà náà tí à ń pè ní Kaiafa.
Then the chief priests and the elders of the people met together in the court of the palace of the high priest who was called Caiaphas,
4 Láti gbèrò àwọn ọ̀nà tí wọ́n yóò fi mú Jesu pẹ̀lú ẹ̀tàn, kí wọn sì pa á.
and they plotted together to get Jesus into their power by a trick, and to put him to death;
5 Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n fohùn ṣọ̀kan pé, “Kì í ṣe lásìkò àsè àjọ ìrékọjá, nítorí rògbòdìyàn yóò ṣẹlẹ̀.”
but said they, "Not during the feast, for fear of causing a riot among the people."
6 Nígbà tí Jesu wà ní Betani ní ilé ọkùnrin tí à ń pè ní Simoni adẹ́tẹ̀.
While Jesus was staying in Bethany, in the house of Simon the Leper,
7 Bí ó ti ń jẹun, obìnrin kan wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú alabasita òróró ìkunra iyebíye, ó sì dà á sí i lórí.
a woman came up to him who had an alabaster vase of very costly perfume, and poured it over his head, as he reclined at table.
8 Nígbà tí àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rí i, inú bí wọn. Wọ́n wí pé, “Irú ìfowóṣòfò wo ni èyí?
when the disciples saw it, they were indignant, and exclaimed.
9 Èéha ti ṣe, obìnrin yìí ìbá tà á ní owó púpọ̀, kí a sì fi owó náà fún àwọn aláìní.”
"Why is this waste? This perfume could have been sold for a good sum, and the money given to the poor."
10 Jesu ti mọ èrò ọkàn wọn, ó wí pé, “Èéṣe ti ẹ̀yin fi ń dá obìnrin yìí lẹ́bi? Ó ṣe ohun tí ó dára fún mi.
But when Jesus understood it he said to them. "Why are you annoying the woman? This is a beautiful deed she has done for me;
11 Ẹ̀yin yóò ní àwọn aláìní láàrín yín nígbà gbogbo, ṣùgbọ́n, ẹ̀yin kò le rí mi nígbà gbogbo.
"for the poor you have with you always, but me you will not always have.
12 Nípa dída òróró ìkunra yìí sí mi lára, òun ń ṣe èyí fún ìsìnkú mi ni.
"In pouring this perfume on my body, she was preparing me for my burial.
13 Lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, a ó sì máa ṣe ìrántí rẹ̀ nígbà gbogbo fún ìṣesí rẹ̀ yìí. Níbikíbi tí a bá ti wàásù ìyìnrere yìí ní gbogbo àgbáyé ni a ó ti sọ ìtàn ohun tí obìnrin yìí ṣe.”
"In solemn truth I tell you that wherever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, what she has done shall be told about, as her memorial."
14 Nígbà náà ni ọ̀kan nínú àwọn aposteli méjìlá ti à ń pè ní Judasi Iskariotu lọ sọ́dọ̀ àwọn olórí àlùfáà.
It was then that one of the Twelve, he who was called Judas Iscariot,
15 Òun sì béèrè pé, “Kí ni ẹ̀yin yóò san fún mi bí mo bá fi Jesu lé yín lọ́wọ́?” Wọ́n sì fún un ní ọgbọ́n owó fàdákà. Ó sì gbà á.
went to the chief priests and said, "What are you ready to give me for betraying him to you?" So they weighed him thirty pieces of silver;
16 Láti ìgbà náà lọ ni Judasi ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí i wá ọ̀nà láti fà á lé wọn lọ́wọ́.
and from that time he kept looking for a chance to betray him.
17 Ní ọjọ́ kìn-ín-ní àjọ àìwúkàrà, àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn tọ Jesu wá pé, “Níbo ni ìwọ fẹ́ kí a pèsè sílẹ̀ láti jẹ àsè ìrékọjá?”
On the first day of the feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus and said, "Where do you want us to make preparation for you eat the Passover?"
18 Jesu sì dáhùn pé, “Ẹ wọ ìlú lọ, ẹ̀yin yóò rí ọkùnrin kan, ẹ wí fún un pé, ‘Olùkọ́ wa wí pé, àkókò mi ti dé. Èmi yóò sì jẹ àsè ìrékọjá pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn mi ní ilé rẹ.’”
"Go into the city," he answered, "to a certain man, and tell him. "‘The Teacher says. "My time is near. I am going to keep the Passover at your house, with my disciples."‘"
19 Nítorí náà, àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn náà ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Jesu ti sọ fún wọn. Wọ́n sì tọ́jú oúnjẹ àsè ti ìrékọjá níbẹ̀.
The disciples did as Jesus told them, and made ready the Passover.
20 Ní àṣálẹ́ ọjọ́ kan náà, bí Jesu ti jókòó pẹ̀lú àwọn méjìlá,
When evening came he reclined at table with the Twelve;
21 nígbà tí wọ́n sì ń jẹun, ó wí pé, “Lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, ọ̀kan nínú yín yóò fi mí hàn.”
and as they were eating, he said to them, "In solemn truth I tell you that one of you is going to betray me!"
22 Ìbànújẹ́ sì bo ọkàn wọn nígbà tí wọ́n gbọ́ èyí. Wọ́n sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí bi í pé, “Olúwa, èmi ni bí?”
In deep distress they began to ask him, each in turn, "It is not I, is it, Master?"
23 Jesu dáhùn pé, “Ẹni ti ó bá mi tọwọ́ bọ inú àwo, ni yóò fi mi hàn.
In reply he said. "One who has dipped his hand with me in the dish will betray me.
24 Ọmọ Ènìyàn ń lọ bí a ti kọ̀wé nípa rẹ̀: ṣùgbọ́n ègbé ni fún ọkùnrin náà lọ́wọ́ ẹni tí a ó ti fi Ọmọ Ènìyàn hàn! Ìbá kúkú sàn fún ẹni náà, bí a kò bá bí.”
"The Son of man is indeed to go as it is written concerning him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man shall be betrayed. It were good for that man if he had never been born."
25 Judasi, ẹni tí ó fi í hàn pẹ̀lú béèrè pé, “Rabbi, èmi ni bí?” Jesu sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Ìwọ wí i.”
In answer, Judas, who betrayed him, said, "Surely it is not I, Rabbi?" He said to him, "Is it not?"
26 Bí wọ́n ti ń jẹun, Jesu sì mú ìwọ̀n àkàrà kékeré kan, lẹ́yìn tí ó ti gbàdúrà sí i, ó bù ú, Ó fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀, Ó wí pé, “Gbà, jẹ; nítorí èyí ni ara mi.”
And as they were eating, Jesus took bread and, when he had blessed it, he broke it and gave to his disciples, saying, "Take, eat, this is my body."
27 Bákan náà, ó sì mú ago wáìnì, ó dúpẹ́ fún un, ó sì gbé e fún wọn. Ó wí pé, “Kí gbogbo yín mu nínú rẹ̀.
And when he had taken the cup and given thanks, he gave it to them, saying.
28 Nítorí èyí ni ẹ̀jẹ̀ mi tí májẹ̀mú tuntun, tí a ta sílẹ̀ fún ìdáríjì ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn.
"Drink from it, all of you; for this is my blood of the Covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.
29 Sì kíyèsi àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ mi. Èmi kì yóò tún mu nínú ọtí wáìnì yìí mọ́ títí di ọjọ́ náà tí èmi yóò mu ún ní tuntun pẹ̀lú yín ní ìjọba Baba mi.”
"But I say to you, I will never again drink of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in the kingdom of my Father."
30 Wọ́n sì kọ orin kan, lẹ́yìn náà wọ́n lọ sórí òkè Olifi.
So after singing a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
31 Nígbà náà ni Jesu wí fún wọn pé, “Gbogbo yín ni yóò kọsẹ̀ lára mi ní òru òní. Nítorí a ti kọ ọ́ pé: “‘Èmi yóò kọlu olùṣọ́-àgùntàn a ó sì tú agbo àgùntàn náà ká kiri.’
Then Jesus said to them. "This very night even you will all stumble and fall away from me; for it is written, "I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.
32 Ṣùgbọ́n lẹ́yìn tí mo bá jí dìde, èmi yóò ṣáájú yín lọ sí Galili.”
But after I am raised up I will go before you into Galilee."
33 Peteru sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Bí gbogbo ènìyàn tilẹ̀ kọ̀ ọ́ sílẹ̀, èmi kì yóò ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀.”
"If they all stumble and fall away from you," answered Peter, "I will never do so!"
34 Jesu wí fún un pé, “Lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún ọ pé, ní òru yìí, kí àkùkọ kí ó tó kọ, ìwọ yóò sẹ́ mi nígbà mẹ́ta.”
Jesus said to him, "In solemn truth I tell you that on this very night, before cockcrow, you will deny me three times!"
35 Peteru wí fún un pé, “Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ láti kú pẹ̀lú, èmi kò jẹ́ sẹ́ ọ.” Gẹ́gẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni gbogbo àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn wí.
But Peter said to him, "Even if I must die with you, I will never deny you." And so said all the disciples.
36 Nígbà náà ni Jesu àti àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ lọ sí ibi kan ti à ń pè ní ọgbà Getsemane, ó wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ jókòó níhìn-ín nígbà tí mo bá lọ gbàdúrà lọ́hùn ún ni.”
Then Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to his disciples, "Sit down here, while I go and pray yonder."
37 Ó sì mú Peteru àti àwọn ọmọ Sebede méjèèjì Jakọbu àti Johanu pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, ìrora àti ìbànújẹ́ bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí gba ọkàn rẹ̀.
And he took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee with him, and began to be in anguish and sore distress,
38 Nígbà náà ni ó wí fún wọn pé, “Ọkàn mi gbọgbẹ́ pẹ̀lú ìbànújẹ́ títí dé ojú ikú, ẹ dúró níhìn-ín yìí, kí ẹ máa ṣọ́nà pẹ̀lú mi.”
and he said to them. "My soul is an anguish, even unto death! Stay here, and keep watch with me."
39 Òun lọ sí iwájú díẹ̀ sí i, ó sì dojúbolẹ̀, ó sì gbàdúrà pé, “Baba mi, bí ó bá ṣe é ṣe, jẹ́ kí a mú ago yìí ré mi lórí kọjá, ṣùgbọ́n ìfẹ́ tìrẹ ni mo fẹ́ kí ó ṣẹ, kì í ṣe ìfẹ́ tèmi.”
Then he went forward a short distance, and fell on his face and prayed. "O, my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wit."
40 Bí ó ti padà sọ́dọ̀ àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta, ó bá wọn, wọ́n ń sùn. Ó kígbe pé, “Peteru, ẹ̀yin kò tilẹ̀ lè bá mi ṣọ́nà fún wákàtí kan?
Then he came to his disciples, and found them asleep, and said to Peter. "So you were none of you strong enough to watch with me even one hour!
41 Ẹ máa ṣọ́ra, kí ẹ sì máa gbàdúrà kí ẹ̀yin má ba à bọ́ sínú ìdẹwò. Nítorí ẹ̀mí ń fẹ́ nítòótọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ó ṣe àìlera fún ara.”
"Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."
42 Ó tún fi wọ́n sílẹ̀ nígbà kejì, ó sí gbàdúrà pé, “Baba mi, bí ago yìí kò bá lè ré mi lórí kọjá bí kò ṣe pé mo bá mu ún, ìfẹ́ tìrẹ ni kí a ṣe.”
Then he went away again a second time and prayed, saying, "O, my Father, if this cup cannot pass except I drink it, Thy will be done."
43 Nígbà tí ó tún padà dé sọ́dọ̀ wọn, Ó rí i pé wọn ń sùn, nítorí ojú wọn kún fún oorun.
He came again and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.
44 Nítorí náà, ó fi wọn sílẹ̀ ó tún padà lọ láti gbàdúrà nígbà kẹta, ó ń wí ohun kan náà.
So he left them and went away again, and prayed the third time in the same words as before.
45 Nígbà náà ni ó tọ́ àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ wá, ó wí pé, “Àbí ẹ̀yin sì ń sùn síbẹ̀, ti ẹ sì ń sinmi? Wò ó wákàtí náà tí dé ti a ó fi Ọmọ Ènìyàn lé àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ lọ́wọ́.
Then he came to the disciples and said. "Sleep on now, and take your rest. Look! the hour is at hand; the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of wicked men.
46 Ẹ dìde! Ẹ jẹ́ kí a máa lọ! Ẹ wò ó, ẹni tí yóò fi mi hàn ń bọ̀ wá!”
"Rouse yourselves! Let us go. My betrayer is close at hand!"
47 Bí ó ti ń sọ̀rọ̀ lọ́wọ́, Judasi, ọ̀kan nínú àwọn méjìlá dé pẹ̀lú ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn pẹ̀lú idà àti kùmọ̀ lọ́wọ́ wọn, wọ́n ti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àgbàgbà Júù wá.
Barely had he spoken these words when Judas, one of the Twelve, appeared, accompanied by a great crowd of men with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people.
48 Ẹni tí ó sì fi í hàn ti fi àmì fún wọn, pé, “Ẹnikẹ́ni tí mo bá fi ẹnu kò ní ẹnu, òun náà ni; ẹ mú un.”
Now his betrayer had given them a sign, saying. "Whoever I kiss is the man; arrest him."
49 Nísinsin yìí, Judasi wá tààrà sọ́dọ̀ Jesu, ó wí pé, “Àlàáfíà, Rabbi!” Ó fi ẹnu kò ó ní ẹnu.
So he came straight up to Jesus and said, "Hail, Rabbi!" and kissed him eagerly.
50 Jesu wí pé, “Ọ̀rẹ́, kí ni nǹkan tí ìwọ bá wá.” Àwọn ìyókù sì sún síwájú wọ́n sì mú Jesu.
"Friend, do that for which you came," said Jesus. Then they came forward and laid hands on Jesus, and arrested him.
51 Sì wò ó, ọ̀kan nínú àwọn tí ó wà pẹ̀lú Jesu na ọwọ́ rẹ̀, ó sì fa idà yọ, ó sì sá ọ̀kan tí i ṣe ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ olórí àlùfáà, ó sì gé e ní etí sọnù.
And, behold, one of these who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, and smote the slave of the high priest, and cut off his ear.
52 Jesu wí fún un pé, “Fi idà rẹ bọ àkọ̀ nítorí àwọn tí ó ń fi idà pa ni a ó fi idà pa.
Then Jesus said to him. "Put back your sword into its place! for all who take the sword will perish by the sword.
53 Ìwọ kò mọ̀ pé èmi lè béèrè lọ́wọ́ Baba mi kí ó fún mi ju légíónì angẹli méjìlá? Òun yóò sì fi wọ́n ránṣẹ́ lẹ́sẹ̀kẹsẹ̀.
"Do you not suppose that I am able to appeal to my Father to furnish me at this very moment with twelve legions of angels?
54 Ṣùgbọ́n bí mo bá ṣe eléyìí ọ̀nà wo ni a ó fi mú Ìwé Mímọ́ ṣẹ, èyí tí ó ti sọ ohun tí ó ṣẹlẹ̀ nísinsin yìí?”
"But if I did, how could the Scriptures be fulfilled that say that thus it must happen?"
55 Nígbà náà ni Jesu wí fún ìjọ ènìyàn náà pé, “Ǹjẹ́ èmi ni ẹ kà sí ọ̀daràn ti ẹ múra pẹ̀lú idà àti kùmọ̀ kí ẹ tó lé mú mi? Ẹ rántí pé mo ti wà pẹ̀lú yín, tí mo ń kọ́ yín lójoojúmọ́ nínú tẹmpili, ẹ̀yin kò sì mú mi nígbà náà.
Then Jesus said to the crowds. "Are you come out as against a robber, with swords and staves to arrest me? Day after day, I sat in the temple courts teaching, and you did not apprehend me.
56 Ṣùgbọ́n gbogbo wọ̀nyí ń ṣẹlẹ̀ kí ọ̀rọ̀ tí a tì ẹnu àwọn wòlíì sọ, tí a kọ sínú Ìwé Mímọ́ lè ṣẹ.” Nígbà yìí gan an ni gbogbo àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ ti kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n sì sálọ.
"But all this has happened in order that the Scriptures might be fulfilled."
57 Àwọn tí ó mú Jesu fà á lọ sí ilé Kaiafa, olórí àlùfáà, níbi ti àwọn olùkọ́ òfin àti gbogbo àwọn àgbàgbà Júù péjọ sí.
Then all his disciples forsook him and fled; but those who had apprehended Jesus led him away to Caiaphas, the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had assembled.
58 Ṣùgbọ́n Peteru ń tẹ̀lé e lókèèrè. Òun sì wá sí àgbàlá olórí àlùfáà. Ó wọlé, ó sì jókòó pẹ̀lú àwọn olùṣọ́. Ó ń dúró láti ri ohun tí yóò ṣẹlẹ̀ sí Jesu.
Now Peter was following him, afar off, as far as the courtyard of the high priest; and when he got in, he was sitting with the officers, to see the end.
59 Nígbà náà ni àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti gbogbo ìgbìmọ̀ Júù ní ilé ẹjọ́ tí ó ga jùlọ ti Júù péjọ síbẹ̀, wọ́n wá àwọn ẹlẹ́rìí tí yóò purọ́ mọ́ Jesu, kí a ba à lè rí ẹjọ́ rò mọ́ ọn lẹ́sẹ̀, eléyìí tí yóò yọrí si ìdájọ́ ikú fún un.
And the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were trying to get false evidence against Jesus, in order that they might have him executed;
60 Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé àwọn ẹlẹ́rìí èké dìde, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò rí ohun kan. Níkẹyìn, àwọn ẹlẹ́rìí méjì dìde.
but they found none, although many false witnesses came forward.
61 Wọn wí pé, “Ọkùnrin yìí sọ pé, ‘Èmi lágbára láti wó tẹmpili Ọlọ́run lulẹ̀, èmi yóò sì tún un mọ ní ọjọ́ mẹ́ta.’”
However, at last two came forward who said, "This fellow declared,’I can destroy the Temple of God and build it in three days.’"
62 Nígbà náà ni olórí àlùfáà sì dìde, ó wí fún Jesu pé, “Ẹ̀rí yìí ń kọ́? Ìwọ sọ bẹ́ẹ̀ tàbí ìwọ kò sọ bẹ́ẹ̀?”
Rising to his feet the high priest asked Jesus. "Do you make no answer? What is it that these are testifying against you?"
63 Ṣùgbọ́n Jesu dákẹ́ rọ́rọ́. Nígbà náà ni olórí àlùfáà wí fún un pé, “Mo fi ọ́ bú ní orúkọ Ọlọ́run alààyè, kí ó sọ fún wa, bí ìwọ bá í ṣe Kristi Ọmọ Ọlọ́run.”
But Jesus kept silence. Again the high priest addressed him, "I adjure you by the Living God, tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God!"
64 Jesu sì dáhùn pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, ìwọ wí.” Ṣùgbọ́n mo wí fún gbogbo yín. “Ẹ̀yin yóò rí Ọmọ Ènìyàn ti yóò jókòó lọ́wọ́ ọ̀tún alágbára, tí yóò sì máa bọ̀ wá láti inú ìkùùkuu.”
"I am He," Jesus answered; "yet I tell you that from this time on you will see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming upon the clouds of heaven."
65 Nígbà náà ni olórí àlùfáà fa aṣọ òun tìkára rẹ̀ ya. Ó sì kígbe pé, “Ọ̀rọ̀-òdì! Kí ni a tún ń wá ẹlẹ́rìí fún? Gbogbo yín ti gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀-òdì rẹ̀. Kí ni ìdájọ́ yín?”
Then the high priest tore his garments, saying. "He has spoken blasphemy! What further need have we of witnesses? For behold, now you have heard his blasphemy!
66 Ki ni ẹ ti rò èyí sí. Gbogbo wọn sì kígbe lọ́hùn kan pé, “Ó jẹ̀bi ikú!”
"What is your verdict?" "He ought to die," they answered.
67 Wọ́n tu itọ́ sí i ní ojú. Wọ́n kàn án lẹ́ṣẹ̀ẹ́. Àwọn ẹlòmíràn sì gbá a lójú.
Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and some struck him with the palms of their hands, and cried.
68 Wọ́n wí pé, “Sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ fún wa! Ìwọ Kristi, ta ni ẹni tí ó ń lù Ọ́?”
"Prophesy to us, you Christ! Who is it who struck you?"
69 Lákòókò yìí, bí Peteru ti ń jókòó ní àgbàlá, ọmọbìnrin kan sì tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ó ní, “Ìwọ wà pẹ̀lú Jesu ti Galili.”
Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and one of the maidservants came up to him and said, "You also were with Jesus, the Galilean!"
70 Ṣùgbọ́n Peteru sẹ̀ ní ojú gbogbo wọn pé, “Èmi kò tilẹ̀ mọ ohun tí ẹ ń sọ nípa rẹ̀.”
But he denied it before them all; "I do not know what you mean," he said.

Soon afterward he went out into the porch, and another maid saw him, and said to those who were there, "This fellow certainly was with Jesus, the Nazarene!"
72 Peteru sì tún sẹ́ lẹ́ẹ̀kejì pẹ̀lú ìbúra pé, “Èmi kò tilẹ̀ mọ ọkùnrin náà rárá.”
And again he denied it with an oath, saying, "I never knew the man."
73 Nígbà tí ó pẹ́ díẹ̀, àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó ń dúró níbi ìran yìí tọ̀ ọ́ wá, wọ́n wí fún Peteru pé, “Lóòótọ́, ìwọ jẹ́ ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn, àwa mọ̀ ọ́n. Èyí sì dá wa lójú nípa àmì ohùn rẹ̀ tí ó ń ti ẹnu rẹ jáde.”
A little later the bystanders came up and said to Peter, "You also are certainly one of them, for your speech betrays you."
74 Peteru sì tún bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í búra ó sì fi ara rẹ̀ ré wí pé, “Mo ní èmi kò mọ ọkùnrin yìí rárá.” Lójúkan náà àkùkọ sì kọ.
Then he began to curse and swear, saying, "I never knew the man." Immediately the cock crew!
75 Nígbà náà ni Peteru rántí nǹkan tí Jesu ti sọ pé, “Kí àkùkọ tó ó kọ, ìwọ yóò sẹ́ mi nígbà mẹ́ta.” Òun sì bọ́ sí òde, ó sọkún kíkorò.
Then Peter recalled the word that Jesus had spoken, "Before the cock crow, you shall three times deny me" - and he went out and broke out into bitter weeping.
