Matthew 27
1 Ní òwúrọ̀, gbogbo àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn àgbàgbà Júù tún padà láti gbìmọ̀ bí wọn yóò ti ṣe pa Jesu.
NOW when the morning came, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus how they might put him to death.
2 Lẹ́yìn èyí, wọ́n fi ẹ̀wọ̀n dè é, wọ́n sì jọ̀wọ́ rẹ̀ fún Pilatu tí i ṣe gómìnà.
And having bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
3 Nígbà tí Judasi, ẹni tí ó fi í hàn, rí i wí pé a ti dá a lẹ́bi ikú, ó yí ọkàn rẹ̀ padà, ó sì káàánú nípa ohun tí ó ṣe. Ó sì mú ọgbọ̀n owó fàdákà tí ó gba náà wá fún àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn àgbàgbà Júù.
Then Judas who betrayed him, seeing that he was condemned, repenting, carried back the thirty silver pieces to the chief priests and the elders,
4 Ó wí pé, “Mo ti ṣẹ̀ nítorí tí mo ti ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ aláìlẹ́ṣẹ̀ sílẹ̀.” Wọ́n dá a lóhùn pẹ̀lú ìbínú pé, “Èyí kò kàn wá! Wàhálà tìrẹ ni!”
saying, I have sinned, in betraying innocent blood. But they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.
5 Nígbà náà ni Judasi da owó náà sílẹ̀ nínú tẹmpili. Ó jáde, ó sì lọ pokùnso.
And throwing down the silver pieces in the temple, he departed; and going out, hanged himself.
6 Àwọn olórí àlùfáà sì mú owó náà. Wọ́n wí pé, “Àwa kò lè fi owó yìí sínú owó ìkójọpọ̀. Ní ìwọ̀n ìgbà tí ó lòdì sí òfin wa nítorí pé owó ẹ̀jẹ̀ ni.”
Then the chief priests taking up the silver pieces, said, It is not lawful to put them to the treasure destined for sacred uses, because it is the price of blood.
7 Wọ́n sì gbìmọ̀, wọ́n sì fi ra ilẹ̀ amọ̀kòkò, láti máa sin òkú àwọn àjèjì nínú rẹ̀.
So taking counsel, they bought with them a potter’s field, as a burial-place for strangers.
8 Ìdí nìyìí tí à ń pe ibi ìsìnkú náà ní “Ilẹ̀ Ẹ̀jẹ̀” títí di òní.
Therefore is that field called, The field of blood unto this day.
9 Èyí sì jẹ́ ìmúṣẹ èyí tí a ti sọtẹ́lẹ̀ láti ẹnu wòlíì Jeremiah wí pé, “Wọ́n sì mú ọgbọ̀n owó fàdákà tí àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli díye lé e.
Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty silver pieces, the price of him who had been estimated at that rate, whom they of the children of Israel did value:
10 Wọ́n sì fi ra ilẹ̀ kan lọ́wọ́ àwọn amọ̀kòkò gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti pàṣẹ.”
and gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord had ordered me.
11 Nígbà náà ni Jesu dúró níwájú baálẹ̀ láti gba ìdájọ́. Baálẹ̀ sì béèrè pé, “Ṣe ìwọ ni ọba àwọn Júù?” Jesu dáhùn pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, nítorí tí ìwọ wí i.”
Then was Jesus placed before the governor, and the governor interrogated him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? Then Jesus replied to him, Thou sayest true.
12 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn àgbàgbà Júù fi gbogbo ẹ̀sùn wọn kàn án, Jesu kò dáhùn kan.
And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he made no reply.
13 Nígbà náà ni Pilatu, béèrè lọ́wọ́ Jesu pé, “Àbí ìwọ kò gbọ́ ẹ̀rí tí wọn ń wí nípa rẹ ni?”
Then saith Pilate to him, Hearest thou not how many things they testify against thee?
14 Jesu kò sì tún dáhùn kan. Èyí sì ya baálẹ̀ lẹ́nu.
And he made him no reply, no not to a single word: so that the governor marvelled exceedingly.
15 Ó jẹ́ àṣà gómìnà láti dá ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ẹlẹ́wọ̀n Júù sílẹ̀ lọ́dọọdún, ní àsìkò àjọ̀dún ìrékọjá. Ẹnikẹ́ni tí àwọn ènìyàn bá ti fẹ́ ni.
Now at the feast, the governor had been accustomed to release one prisoner to the people, whomsoever they chose.
16 Ní àsìkò náà ọ̀daràn paraku kan wà nínú ẹ̀wọ̀n tí à ń pè Jesu Baraba.
And they had at that time a notorious prisoner, called Barabbas.
17 Bí ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn ti péjọ síwájú ilé Pilatu lówúrọ̀ ọjọ́ náà, ó béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé, “Ta ni ẹ̀yin ń fẹ́ kí n dá sílẹ̀ fún yín, Baraba tàbí Jesu, ẹni tí ń jẹ́ Kristi?”
Being therefore gathered around him, Pilate said to them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus called Messiah?
18 Òun ti mọ̀ pé nítorí ìlara ni wọn fi fà á lé òun lọ́wọ́.
For he knew that out of envy they had delivered him up.
19 Bí Pilatu sì ti ṣe jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ ìdájọ́ rẹ̀, ìyàwó rẹ̀ ránṣẹ́ sí i pé, “Má ṣe ní ohun kankan ṣe pẹ̀lú ọkùnrin aláìṣẹ̀ náà. Nítorí mo jìyà ohun púpọ̀ lójú àlá mi lónìí nítorí rẹ̀.”
Then, as he was sitting on the tribunal, his wife sent a message to him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that righteous person; for I have suffered much to-day in a dream on his account.
20 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn àgbàgbà Júù rọ àwọn ènìyàn, láti béèrè kí a dá Baraba sílẹ̀, kí a sì béèrè ikú fún Jesu.
But the chief priests and elders persuaded the populace that they should ask for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
21 Nígbà tí Pilatu sì tún béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé, “Èwo nínú àwọn méjèèjì yìí ni ẹ̀ ń fẹ́ kí n dá sílẹ̀ fún yín?” Àwọn ènìyàn sì kígbe padà pé, “Baraba!”
The governor repeating the question, said to them, Which of the two will ye that I release unto you? They said Barabbas.
22 Pilatu béèrè pé, “Kí ni kí èmi ṣe sí Jesu ẹni ti a ń pè ní Kristi?” Gbogbo wọn sì tún kígbe pé, “Kàn án mọ́ àgbélébùú!”
Pilate saith unto them, What then shall I do with Jesus, who is called the Messiah? They all say to him, Let him be crucified.
23 Pilatu sì béèrè pé, “Nítorí kí ni? Kí ló ṣe tí ó burú?” Wọ́n kígbe sókè pé, “Kàn án mọ́ àgbélébùú! Kàn án mọ́ àgbélébùú!”
The governor replied, But what evil hath he done? They cried out with greater vehemence, saying, Let him be crucified.
24 Nígbà tí Pilatu sì rí i pé òun kò tún rí nǹkan kan ṣe mọ́, àti wí pé rògbòdìyàn ti ń bẹ̀rẹ̀, ó béèrè omi, ó sì wẹ ọwọ́ rẹ̀ níwájú ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn, ó wí pé, “Ọrùn mí mọ́ nípa ẹ̀jẹ̀ ọkùnrin yìí. Ẹ̀yin fúnra yín, ẹ bojútó o!”
When Pilate saw that it was of no use to contend, but that rather a tumult was rising, he took water, and washed his hands before the people, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man: ye must answer for it.
25 Gbogbo àgbájọ náà sì ké pé, “Kí ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ wà lórí wa, àti ní orí àwọn ọmọ wa!”
Then all the people answering said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
26 Nígbà náà ni Pilatu dá Baraba sílẹ̀ fún wọn. Lẹ́yìn tí òun ti na Jesu tán, ó fi í lé wọn lọ́wọ́ láti mú un lọ kàn mọ́ àgbélébùú.
Then he released unto them Barabbas: but having scourged Jesus, he delivered him up to be crucified.
27 Nígbà náà ni àwọn ọmọ-ogun gómìnà mú Jesu lọ sí gbọ̀ngàn ìdájọ́ wọ́n sì kó gbogbo ẹgbẹ́ ọmọ-ogun tì í.
Thereupon the soldiers of the governor taking Jesus away to the Praetorium, gathered around him the whole band:
28 Wọ́n tú Jesu sì ìhòhò, wọ́n sì wọ̀ ọ́ ní aṣọ òdòdó,
and stripping him, put about him a scarlet cloak.
29 wọ́n sì hun adé ẹ̀gún. Wọ́n sì fi dé e lórí. Wọ́n sì fi ọ̀pá sí ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀pá ọba. Wọ́n sì wólẹ̀ níwájú rẹ̀, wọ́n fi í ṣe ẹlẹ́yà pé, “Kábíyèsí, ọba àwọn Júù!”
And platting a crown of thorns, they placed it on his head, and a cane in his right hand: and bowing the knee before him, mocked him, saying, Hail, king of the Jews!
30 Wọ́n sì tu itọ́ sí i lójú àti ara, wọ́n gba ọ̀pá wọ́n sì nà án lórí.
And spitting upon him, they took the cane, and struck him upon his head.
31 Nígbà tí wọ́n fi ṣẹ̀sín tán, wọ́n bọ́ aṣọ ara rẹ̀. Wọ́n tún fi aṣọ tirẹ̀ wọ̀ ọ́. Wọ́n sì mú un jáde láti kàn án mọ́ àgbélébùú.
And when they had insulted him, they took off from him the cloak, and put his own garments on him, and led him away to crucify him.
32 Bí wọ́n sì ti ń jáde, wọ́n rí ọkùnrin kan ará Kirene tí à ń pè ní Simoni. Wọ́n sì mú ọkùnrin náà ní túláàsì láti ru àgbélébùú Jesu.
And as they were going out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name; him they compelled to carry his cross.
33 Wọ́n sì jáde lọ sí àdúgbò kan tí à ń pè ní Gọlgọta (èyí tí í ṣe “Ibi Agbárí”).
And when they were come to a place called Golgotha (which is called the place of a skull),
34 Níbẹ̀ ni wọn ti fún un ni ọtí wáìnì tí ó ní egbòogi nínú láti mu. Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ó tọ́ ọ wò, ó kọ̀ láti mu ún.
they gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and having tasted it, he refused to drink.
35 Lẹ́yìn tí wọ́n sì ti kàn án mọ́ àgbélébùú, wọ́n dìbò láti pín aṣọ rẹ̀ láàrín ara wọn.
Then having crucified him, they parted his garments, casting the lot: that it might be fulfilled, what was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and for my vesture they threw the lot.
36 Nígbà náà ni wọ́n jókòó yí i ká. Wọ́n ń ṣọ́ ọ níbẹ̀.
And sitting down, they guarded him there.
37 Ní òkè orí rẹ̀, wọ́n kọ ohun kan tí ó kà báyìí pé: “Èyí ni Jesu, Ọba àwọn Júù.” síbẹ̀.
And they placed over his head his accusation in writing, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 Wọ́n kan àwọn olè méjì pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ ní òwúrọ̀ náà. Ọ̀kan ní ọwọ́ ọ̀tún, àti èkejì ní ọwọ́ òsì rẹ̀.
Then were crucified with him two robbers, one on his right hand, and the other on his left.
39 Àwọn tí ń kọjá lọ sì ń bú u. Wọ́n sì ń mi orí wọn pé:
And they who were passing by reviled him, shaking their heads,
40 “Ìwọ tí yóò wó tẹmpili, ìwọ tí yóò sì tún un mọ ní ọjọ́ kẹta. Bí ó bá jẹ́ pé Ọmọ Ọlọ́run ni ìwọ, sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti orí igi àgbélébùú, kí ó sì gba ara rẹ là!”
and saying, Thou that canst pull down the temple, and build it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, descend from the cross.
41 Bákan náà àwọn olórí àlùfáà pẹ̀lú àwọn akọ̀wé òfin àti àwọn àgbàgbà Júù sì fi í ṣe ẹlẹ́yà.
And with similar language also did the chief priests, insulting him, with the scribes and elders, and Pharisees,
42 Wọ́n kẹ́gàn rẹ̀ pé, “Ó gba àwọn ẹlòmíràn là, kò sí lè gba ara rẹ̀. Ìwọ ọba àwọn Israẹli? Sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti orí àgbélébùú nísinsin yìí, àwa yóò sì gbà ọ́ gbọ́.
say, He saved others, himself he is unable to save. If he be the King of Israel, let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe him.
43 Ó gba Ọlọ́run gbọ́, jẹ́ kí Ọlọ́run gbà á là ní ìsinsin yìí tí òun bá fẹ́ ẹ. Ǹjẹ́ òun kò wí pé, èmi ni Ọmọ Ọlọ́run?”
He trusted in God; let him now deliver him, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.
44 Bákan náà, àwọn olè tí a kàn mọ́ àgbélébùú pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ fi í ṣe ẹlẹ́yà.
And in the same manner also, did the robbers who were crucified with him, revile him.
45 Láti wákàtí kẹfà ni òkùnkùn fi ṣú bo gbogbo ilẹ̀ títí dé wákàtí kẹsànán ọjọ́.
Now from the fifth hour darkness fell upon all the land, unto the ninth hour.
46 Níwọ̀n wákàtí kẹsànán ní Jesu sì kígbe ní ohùn rara wí pé, “Eli, Eli, lama sabakitani” (ní èdè Heberu). Ìtumọ̀ èyí tí í ṣe, “Ọlọ́run mi, Ọlọ́run mi, èéṣe tí ìwọ fi kọ̀ mí sílẹ̀?”
But about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with an exceeding loud cry, saying, Eli! Eli! lama, sabacthani? that is, My God! my God! why hast thou forsaken me?
47 Ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ kò yé díẹ̀ nínú àwọn ẹni tí ń wòran, nígbà tí wọ́n gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n wí pé ọkùnrin yìí ń pe Elijah.
Then some of those who stood there, hearing him, said, This man is calling out for Elias.
48 Lẹ́sẹ̀kan náà, ọ̀kan nínú wọn sáré, ó mú kànìnkànìn, ó tẹ̀ ẹ́ bọ inú ọtí kíkan. Ó fi lé orí ọ̀pá, ó gbé e sókè láti fi fún un mu.
And immediately one of them, running, and taking a sponge, and filling it with vinegar, and fastening it to a pole, put it to him to drink.
49 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ìyókù wí pé, “Ẹ fi í sílẹ̀. Ẹ jẹ́ kí a wò ó bóyá Elijah yóò sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti gbà á là.”
The others said, Let him alone, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.
50 Nígbà tí Jesu sì kígbe ní ohùn rara lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i, ó jọ̀wọ́ ẹ̀mí rẹ̀, ó sì kú.
Then Jesus crying again with a loud voice gave up the ghost.
51 Lójúkan náà aṣọ ìkélé tẹmpili fàya, láti òkè dé ìsàlẹ̀. Ilẹ̀ sì mì tìtì. Àwọn àpáta sì sán.
And, lo! the vail of the temple was rent in two, from the upper part to the bottom; and the earth was shaken; and the rocks were rent;
52 Àwọn isà òkú sì ṣí sílẹ̀. Ọ̀pọ̀ òkú àwọn ẹni mímọ́ tí ó ti sùn sì tún jíǹde.
and the sepulchres were opened; and many bodies of saints, who slept, arose;
53 Wọ́n jáde wá láti isà òkú lẹ́yìn àjíǹde Jesu, wọ́n sì lọ sí ìlú mímọ́. Níbẹ̀ ni wọ́n ti fi ara han ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn.
and coming out of the sepulchres after his resurrection, entered into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
54 Nígbà tí balógun ọ̀run àti àwọn tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ tí wọ́n ń sọ Jesu rí bí ilẹ̀ ṣe mì tìtì àti ohun tí ó ṣẹlẹ̀, ẹ̀rù bà wọn gidigidi, wọ́n wí pé, “Lóòótọ́ Ọmọ Ọlọ́run ní í ṣe!”
Then the centurion, and they who were with him, guarding Jesus, when they saw the earthquake, and the things which were done, were exceedingly terrified, saying, Assuredly this was the Son of God.
55 Ọ̀pọ̀ obìnrin tí ó wá láti Galili pẹ̀lú Jesu láti tọ́jú rẹ̀ wọn ń wò ó láti òkèèrè.
Now there were many women on the spot, looking on at a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:
56 Nínú àwọn obìnrin ti ó wà níbẹ̀ ni Maria Magdalene, àti Maria ìyá Jakọbu àti Josẹfu, àti ìyá àwọn ọmọ Sebede méjèèjì wà níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú.
among whom was Mary Magdalen, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee’s children.
57 Nígbà tí alẹ́ sì lẹ́, ọkùnrin ọlọ́rọ̀ kan láti Arimatea, tí à ń pè ní Josẹfu, ọ̀kan nínú àwọn tí ó jẹ́ ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn Jesu,
But when the evening was come, there came a rich man of Arimathea, whose name was Joseph, who himself also was a disciple of Jesus:
58 lọ sọ́dọ̀ Pilatu, ó sì tọrọ òkú Jesu. Pilatu sì pàṣẹ kí a gbé é fún un.
he going in to Pilate, begged for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered the body to be given him.
59 Josẹfu sì gbé òkú náà. Ó fi aṣọ funfun mímọ́ dì í.
And Joseph receiving the body, wrapped it in clean linen;
60 Ó sì tẹ́ ẹ sínú ibojì òkúta tí ó gbẹ́ nínú àpáta fúnra rẹ̀. Ó sì yí òkúta ńlá dí ẹnu-ọ̀nà ibojì náà, ó sì lọ.
and laid it in his own new sepulchre, which he had hewn out in a rock: and rolling a vast stone against the door of the sepulchre, departed.
61 Maria Magdalene àti Maria kejì wà níbẹ̀, wọn jókòó òdìkejì ibojì náà.
And Mary Magdalen, and the other Mary, were there sitting opposite the sepulchre.
62 Lọ́jọ́ kejì tí ó tẹ̀lé ọjọ́ ìpalẹ̀mọ́ àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn Farisi lọ sọ́dọ̀ Pilatu.
Now on the morrow, which is the day after the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came in a body to Pilate,
63 Wọ́n sọ fún un pé, “Alàgbà àwa rántí pé ẹlẹ́tàn n nì wí nígbà tí ó wà láyé pé, ‘Lẹ́yìn ọjọ́ kẹta èmi yóò tún jí dìde.’
saying, Sir, we have reflected, that this deceiver, when yet alive, said, After three days I will rise again.
64 Nítorí náà, pàṣẹ kí a ti ibojì rẹ̀ gbọningbọnin títí ọjọ́ kẹta, kí àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ má ṣe wá jí gbé lọ, wọn a sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í sọ fún gbogbo ènìyàn pé, ‘Òun ti jíǹde,’ bí èyí bá ní láti ṣẹlẹ̀, yóò burú fún wa púpọ̀ ju ti àkọ́kọ́ lọ.”
Command therefore that the sepulchre be made perfectly secure until the third day, lest his disciples coming by night, steal him, and say to the people, He is risen from the dead, so the last delusion would be worse than the first.
65 Pilatu sì pàṣẹ pé, “Ẹ lo àwọn olùṣọ́ yín kí wọn dáàbò bo ibojì náà bí ẹ bá ti fẹ́.”
Then said Pilate unto them, Ye have a guard, go and make it as secure as ye think fit.
66 Nítorí náà wọ́n lọ. Wọ́n sì ṣé òkúta ibojì náà dáradára. Wọ́n sì fi àwọn olùṣọ́ sí ibẹ̀ láti dáàbò bò ó.
So they went and made the sepulchre secure, putting a seal upon the stone, after placing the guard.
