Matiyu 26
1 Kube na Yesu wa malu ubellu nliru une vat, a woro nono katwa me.
When Jesus had finished teaching all of that, he said to his disciples,
2 “iyiru upaska nlawa ayiri abari cas, ima nakpu Usau Nnit ikotinghe kitene kuca.”
“You know that in two days time the Festival of the Passover will be here; and that the Son of Man is to be given up to be crucified.”
3 Ugo na Priest nin nakune nbun nanite wa da pitirin kiti kirum kudaru Ngo na Prieste, ulenge na iwa yirughe nin lissa Kefas.
Then the chief priests and the elders of the people met in the house of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,
4 Ligowe ipizira tibau nworu ikifo Yeso ku imolughe likire.
and plotted together to arrest Jesus by stealth and put him to death;
5 Iwa din bellu, “Na kubin idi paska, bara iwa fya anite ayi.”
but they said, “Not during the Festival, or the people may riot.”
6 Kube na Yesu wa di in Baitanya ngan Simon ukutulu,
After Jesus had reached Bethany, and while he was in the house of Simon the leper,
7 na awa sossin kiti nli nimonli, umong uwani da kitime nin libo nnuf kunya kumang min nikurf gbardang, a kpilya minin litime.
a woman came up to him with an alabaster jar of very costly perfume, and poured the perfume on his head as he sat at the table.
8 Na nono katwa me in yene nani, ayi nana nani i woro, “Nyaghari finu nka kimole?
The disciples were indignant at seeing this. “What is this waste for?” they exclaimed.
9 Iwa lewu mini nin nikurfu gbardaang ikoso nikimon.”
“It could have been sold for a large sum, and the money given to poor people.”
10 Yesu nin yiru nane, a woro iyaghri nta idin bukuru nwani ulele kibinayi? Bara asuyi katwa kacine.
“Why are you troubling the woman?” Jesus said, when he noticed it. “For this is a beautiful deed that she has done to me.
11 Idi ligowe nan nikimone ko kome kubi, na meng ma yitu nan ghinu ko kome kubi ba.
You always have the poor with you, but you will not always have me.
12 Ule ukpilyu nnufe kidowe na asuyi, asu nani a kelei bara ukassu nigha.
In pouring this perfume on my body, she prepares me for my burial.
13 Nbelin minu kidegen, kiti kanga na ima su ulenge uwaze ku nanya lenge uyeh vat, imon ilenge na uwani ulele nsu ima bellu unin inan lizino nighe.
I tell you, wherever, in the whole world, this good news is proclaimed, what this woman has done will be told in memory of her.”
14 Umong nanya likure, ulenge na iwa yicughe Yahuda Iskaroti, ado kitin Ngo na Priest
It was then that one of the Twelve, named Judas Iscariot, made his way to the chief priests,
15 aworo, “Imashinari ima ni meng nakpa minu ame?” Ibataghe azurfa akut atat.
and said “What are you willing to give me, if I betray Jesus to you?” The Priests counted him out thirty pieces of silver as payment.
16 Atunna ipizuru ndina ule na ama nakpu nani ame.
So from that time Judas looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus.
17 Lirin ncizunu nli fungal nsalin muccu, nono katwa me da kitime iworoge, “Weri udi nin su tidi kyele bara uli npaske?”
On the first day of the Festival of the unleavened bread, the disciples came up to Jesus, and said, “Where do you wish us to make preparations for you to eat the Passover?”
18 Aworo, “Can kitin mon unit nanya kipine iworoghe, 'Cikilari nworo, “kubi nighe nda duru. Meng ba su upaska ngafere ligowe nin nono katwa nighe”
“Go into the city to a certain man,” he answered, “and say to him ‘The teacher says – My time is near. I will keep the Passover with my disciples at your house.’”
19 Nono katwawe su nafo ubellu me, I kyele imonli Npaske.
The disciples did as Jesus directed them, and prepared the Passover.
20 Na kubi kuleleng nta, aso ama li ligowe nin nono katwa me likure.
In the evening Jesus took his place with the twelve disciples,
21 Idi nanya kilewe, aworo, “Ndin bellu minu kidegen umon nanya mine ma lewui.”
and, while they were eating, he said, “I tell you that one of you will betray me.”
22 Ita aburi asirne kang, kogha nanya mine tiringhe, sameri Cikilari?”
In great grief they began to say to him, one by one, “Can it be I, Master?”
23 Akawa aworo, “ulenge na adin sho ncara kishik kirume nin mi amere ma lewui.
“The one who dipped his bread beside me in the dish,” replied Jesus, “is the one who will betray me.
24 Usaun Nnit ma nyiu nafo na ina yerti litime. Kash nnit ulenge na ama liwu Usaun Nnit! Uma katinu unit une nin caut na iwa na marughe ba.”
True, the Son of Man must go, as scripture says of him, yet alas for that man by whom the Son of Man is being betrayed! For that man it would be better never to have been born!”
25 Yahuda ulenge na amere ma lewughe woro, “Sa menghari unan dursusu niyerti?” Aworoghe, ubelle nin litife.”
Judas, who was betraying him, turned to him and said, “Can it be I, Rabbi?” “It is,” answered Jesus.
26 Na iwa di kilewe, Yesu yauna ufungal, ata nlira ku, a pucco unin. Ana nono katwa me unin aworo, “Seren, leon. Kidowo nighari.”
While they were eating, Jesus took some bread, and, after saying the blessing, broke it and, as he gave it to his disciples, said, “Take it and eat it; this is my body.”
27 Ayauna kakkuke ata nlira ku, a nakpa nani aworo, “Sonon, vat mine.
Then he took a cup, and, after saying the thanksgiving, gave it to them, with the words, “Drink from it, all of you;
28 Mone nmii nalikawali nigharibmongo na ina gutun bara gbardang na se ukusu nalapi.
for this is my covenant blood, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.
29 Ndin bellu minu, na nma kuru nsono nmyen kumat kuce ba, se loli lire na nma sonu minin mipesse nan ghinu nanya kipin tigo Ncif ning.”
I tell you that I will never, after this, drink of this juice of the grape, until that day when I will drink it new with you in the kingdom of my Father.”
30 Na ita avu nimalin, inuzu inya ucindu likup in zaitun.
They then sang a hymn, and went out to the Mount of Olives.
31 Yesu woro nani, “kyitik kane vat mine ma tiru bara meng, bara ina nyerti,'nma kpui unan libyawe ligo nakame ma malu kiti.'
Then Jesus said to them, “Even you will all fall away from me tonight. Scripture says – ‘I will strike down the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’
32 Vat nani asa ifyyi, nma nyiu ubun mine udu nanyan Galili.”
But, after I have risen, I will go before you into Galilee.”
33 Bitrus woroghe, “Andi vat min ba diu bara fewe, na meng wasa nma tiro nsunfi ba.”
“If everyone else falls away from you,” Peter answered, “I will never fall away!”
34 Yesu woroghe, meng din bellufi kidegen, nin kyitik kane kukulok mayitu kusa kolsino ba, uba woru na uyiri ba so titat.”
“I tell you,” replied Jesus, “that this very night, before the cock crows, you will disown me three times!”
35 Bitrus woroghe, Andi ma mma ku ninfi gbas, na nma narifi ba.” Ngisin nono katwa me vat belle nanare wang.
“Even if I must die with you,” Peter exclaimed, “I will never disown you!” All the disciples spoke in the same way.
36 Yesu tunna a nya ligowe nanghinu udu nkan kiti na idin yiccu kinin Ugetsemani a woro nono katwa me, “Son kikane meng do kikani ndi ti nlira.”
Then Jesus came with them to a garden called Gethsemane, and he said to his disciples, “Sit down here while I go and pray over there.”
37 A yira Bitrus ku nin na saun Zabeden ligowe nanghe atunna a cizina usirzu nayi, ayime nana.
Taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to show signs of sadness and deep distress of mind.
38 A tunna a woro nani, “Liburi nin siro bibit, nafo nku. Son kikane i yenje kiti nan mi.”
“I am sad at heart,” he said, “sad even to death; wait here and watch with me.”
39 A cancana udu ubun bat, a deo nin nalung ata nlira, a woro, “Ucif ning, andi uwasa uso nani, na kakukkane kata kiti nighe. “Vat nani, na ubellu nighe ba, ubellu fere.”
Going on a little further, he threw himself on his face in prayer. “My Father,” he said, “if it is possible, let me be spared this cup; only, not as I will, but as you will.”
40 Ada kiti nnono katwa me ada se nani nmoro, a woro, a woro Bitrus ku, “inyaghar, na uwasa uyenje kiti nin mi kutanki kurumba?
Then he came to his disciples, and found them asleep. “What!” he said to Peter, “could none of you watch with me for one hour?
41 Yenjen kiti isu nlira bara iwa piru nanyan dumuzunu. Uruhe yinna, kidowere dinin likara ba.”
Watch and pray so that you don’t fall into temptation. True, the spirit is eager, but human nature is weak.”
42 Ado tutung unba adi ti nlira, aworo, “Ucif ning, andi na uwasa ukata nani ba se nsono uning, na ubellu fere so.”
Again, a second time, he went away, and prayed. “My Father,” he said, “if I cannot be spared this cup, but must drink it, your will be done!”
43 Ada tutung ada se nani idin moro, bara iyizi mine wa ti getek nin moro kang.
And coming back again he found them asleep, for their eyes were heavy.
44 Akuru a nya tutung, adi ti nlira uti un tat a belle uliru urume.
So he left them, and went away again, and prayed a third time, again saying the same words.
45 Yesu da kitin nono katwa me aworo nani, “Idu nmoro nin shinua? Yeneng, kubi mal da duru, imal lewu Usaun nnit nacara nannan nalapi.
Then he came to the disciples, and said, “Sleep on now, and rest yourselves. Look – my time is close at hand, and the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of wicked people.
46 Fitan nari ti nya. Yenen ulenge na aba lewiye nda duru.”
Up, and let us be going. Look! My betrayer is close at hand.”
47 A dutun nlirue, Yahuda, umong nanya mine likure da. Ligozin gbardang wa di ligowe ninghe unuzu kiti ngo na priest nan nakune nanite. Ida nin na sangali nan tica.
And, while he was still speaking, Judas, who was one of the Twelve, came in sight; and with him was a great crowd of people, with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and elders of the people.
48 Nene unit ulenge na amere ma lewu Yeseku wa tinani udursu, aworo, “Ulenge na in nyukkunghe, amere kiffonghe.”
Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them. “The man whom I kiss,” he had said, “will be the one; arrest him.”
49 Ata mas ada kitin Yesu aworo, Ndin lissufi una dursuzu ninyerte! A nyukunghe.
So he went up to Jesus at once, and exclaimed, “Welcome, Rabbi!” and kissed him;
50 Yesu woroghe, “Udondong su imong irika na uda nsue.” Inughe tunna ida, i kiffo Yesu ku, i nya ninghe.
at which Jesus said to him, “Friend, do what you have come for.” The men went up, seized Jesus, and arrested him.
51 Umong nanya nalenge na iwa di ligowe nan Yesu tunna a nakpa ucara me, a shuku kusangali, a kowo kucin Ngo na Priest, a weringhe kutuf.
Suddenly one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and striking the high priest’s servant, cut off his ear.
52 Yesu tunna aworoghe, kpilla ushon kusangali fe kuparinme, bara vat nalenge na idin molsu nin na sangali iba molsu nani nin na sangali.
“Sheathe your sword,” Jesus said, “for all who draw the sword will be put to the sword.
53 Udin yenju na meng wasa in yicila Ucif ning, a toyi nin nono kadura me a lenge na ima katunu amui akut atat nin kutocin ba?
Do you think that I cannot ask my Father for help, when he would at once send to my aid more than twelve legions of angels?
54 Ani iba ti iyizari uliru Kutelle kulo, nworu unan so nani gbas?”
But in that case how would the scriptures be fulfilled, which say that this must be?”
55 Kubi kone, Yesu woro ligo nanite, “I da nin na sangiali nan tica ida kifoi nafo ukirya? Ndin sozu ndursuzo anit nanya kutii nlira kolome liri, ana i kiffoi ba.
Jesus at the same time said to the crowds, “Have you come out, as if after a robber, with swords and clubs, to take me? I have sat teaching day after day in the Temple Courts, and yet you did not arrest me.”
56 Vat ilenge imone so nani iyerte nanan liru nin nu Kutelle nan kulo.” Nono katwa me tunna isunghe ico.
The whole of this occurred in fulfillment of the prophetic scriptures. Then the disciples all forsook him and fled.
57 Alenge na i kiffo Yesue ku nya nighe udumun kiti Kefas ugo na Priest kikanga na anan niyerte nin nakune wa pitin ku ligowe.
Those who had arrested Jesus took him to Caiaphas, the high priest, where the teachers of the Law and elders had assembled.
58 Bitirusa cas wa dortughe kidun piit udu kudaru nwuccu nliru ndya kutii nlirie. A wa piru nanya a so ligowe nin nan ca ayene inyaghari iba su ninghe.
Peter followed him at a distance as far as the high priest’s courtyard, to see the outcome.
59 Nene udya kutii nlirie nin nanan kpilzu me vat pizira uliru bellu litime na ise Yesu ku nin kulapi, bara inan se finu nliru imolughe.
Meanwhile the chief priests and the whole of the High Council were trying to get such false evidence against Jesus, as would warrant putting him to death,
60 Na iwa se uliru ba, vat nin nan liru kinuwe na iwa da ida su. kimal nani among naba da
but they did not find any, although many came forward with false evidence. Later on, however, two men came forward and said,
61 I woro, “Unit ulele wor, meng wasa npuco kutii nlira Kutelle nkpila nke kunin nanya nayiri atat.”
“This man said ‘I am able to destroy the Temple of God, and to build it in three days.’”
62 Udya kutii nlire fita ayisina, aworoghe, “na udin liru ule na uma kpanu ba? Inyaghari ilele idin bellu litife?”
Then the high priest stood up, and said to Jesus, “Have you no answer? What is this evidence which these men are giving against you?”
63 A Yesu yita nin kutike. Udya kilari nlira woroghe, “Ndifi kucukusu nin Kutellen lai, belle nari sa fere Kriste, Gono Kutelle.”
But Jesus remained silent. The high priest said to him, “I order you, by the living God, to tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God.”
64 Yesu kawaghe, “Ubelle nani litife. Meng bellinfi nene, udu ubun uma yenu Usaun nnit sossin ncara ulime un likara, adin cinu kitene nawut kitene kani.”
“It is true,” Jesus answered, “Moreover I tell you all that hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the Almighty, and coming on the clouds of the heavens.”
65 Udya kilari nlire marya kulutuk me aworo, “A zogo Kutelle. Iyaghari nta tutung ti kuru ti du nin su nmon uliru? Yeneng nene anung lanza tizogoe.
Then the high priest tore his robes. “This is blasphemy!” he exclaimed. “Why do we want any more witnesses? You have just heard his blasphemy!
66 Iyaghari idin kpilizue?” Ikawaghe i woro, “Abatina ukul.”
What is your decision?” They answered, “He deserves death.”
67 Itufuzunghe ataf nmoro, ikuru iruzoghe, ifoghe tutung nin nacara mine,
Then they spat in his face, and struck him, while others dealt blows at him, saying as they did so,
68 I woro, “Sunari anabci fe Kristi. Ame ghari ulenge na a riofi?”
“Now play the prophet for us, you Christ! Who was it that struck you?”
69 Kubi kone, Bitrus wa sossin ndas nbun kutii nwuccu nlirue, nkan kabura kucin da kitime a woro. “Fewang di ligowe nin Yesu Ngalili.”
Peter, meanwhile, was sitting outside in the courtyard; and a maidservant came up to him, and exclaimed, “Why, you were with Jesus the Galilean!”
70 Ata amusu kun nbun mine vat, aworo, “Na meng yiru imon ilenge na udin liru kitene ba.”
But Peter denied it before them all. “I do not know what you mean,” he replied.
71 Na anuzu udu kibulung, nkon kubura kucin ugan tutung yeneghe a woro alenge na iwa di kitene, “Unit ulele wang wa di ligowe nin Yesu Nnazaret.”
When he had gone out into the gateway, another maid saw him, and said to those who were there, “This man was with Jesus of Nazareth!”
72 Akuru ata amusu ku tutun nin nisiling, “Na in yiru unite ba.”
Again he denied it with an oath, “I do not know the man!”
73 Nin kubiri bat, alenge na iwa yissin kitene da ida woro Bitrus ku, “Kidegenere, fe wang umong nanya minere, bara lilemfe ndursofi.”
But soon afterward those who were standing by came up and said to Peter, “You also are certainly one of them; why, even your way of speaking proves it!”
74 Atunna a cizina izogo nin nisiling, “Na in yiru unitte ba.” Na nin dandaunu ba, kukulok kolsuno.
Then Peter said, “I swear that I do not know the man! May God punish me if I am lying!” At that moment a cock crowed;
75 Bitrus lizino ulire na Yesu nin bellinghe. “Kukulok mayitu kusa kolsuno ba, uma ti umusun yiru nin titat.” A nuzu ado udas adi gilu kang.
and Peter remembered the words which Jesus had said – ‘Before a cock has crowed, you will disown me three times’; and he went outside, and wept bitterly.
