Matthew 26
1 When Jesus had finished [saying] all those things, he said to [us] disciples,
Wakati Yesu ayomwi longela malongelo goti, abakiye anapunzi bake,
2 “You know that two days from now [we will celebrate] the Passover [festival]. [At that time] I, the one who came from heaven, will be handed over to {they will put me, the one who came from heaven, into the hands of} those who will nail me to a cross.”
“Mutangite baada ya masoba gabele kwalowa baa na lisoba lya pasaka, na mwana wa Adamu apiyilwa linga bakongele.”
3 At the same time the chief priests and the Jewish elders gathered in the home of the high priest, whose name was Caiaphas.
Baada ya bakuu ba makuhani ni apindo ba bandu bakwembanike pamope mu'ukumbi wa kuhani nkolo, ywakemelwage Kayafa.
4 [There] they plotted how they could seize Jesus in some deceitful way so that they could have him executed.
Kwa pamope bapangite mpango wa kumoywa Yesu kwa siri na kumulaga.
5 But they said, “[We must] not [do it] during the [Passover] festival, because [if we do it then], the people might riot.”
Mana batibaya, kana ipangike lisoba lya sikukuu, yakana yoka puyo kwa baadhi ya bandu.”
6 While Jesus [and we] were in Bethany [village] in the home of Simon, whom [Jesus had healed of] leprosy,
Wakati Yesu paabile Bethania mu'nyumba ya Simoni ywabile nkoma,
7 a woman came to him. She [was carrying] a stone jar [containing] very expensive perfume. [To show how much she appreciated] Jesus, she poured the perfume on his head as he was eating.
pagoloki pameza, nnwawa yumo aisi kachake abile apotwi kikoba chakibile na mauta ga garama ngolo, aijitii mu mutwe wake.
8 When [we] disciples saw that, [some of us] were angry. [One of us] said, “(It is terrible that this perfume was wasted!/Why was this perfume wasted?) [RHQ]
Lakini anapunzi bake bapakibweni kitendo choo, batichukya muno no baya, mwanja namani upangite nyoo.
9 [We] could have sold it and gotten a lot of money for it! Then the money could have been given {[we] could have given the money} to poor people.”
Aga tulowe weza pemeya kwa kiasi kikolo na kwapeya maskini.”
10 Jesus knew [what we were saying. So he] said to us, “(You should not be bothering this woman!/Why are you bothering this woman?) [RHQ] She has done a beautiful thing to me.
Lakini Yesu ayomwile tanga lee, ngababakiya, “Mwanza na matusuluya nnwawa yoo? kwa kuwa apangite kilebe kinanoga kasango.
11 [Keep in mind that] you will always have poor people among you, [so you can help them whenever you want to]. But I will not always be with you, [so it is good for her to show now that she appreciates me!]
Maskini mubile nabo kila lisoba, lakini mutama kwaa na nenga kila lisoba.
12 When she poured this perfume on my body, [it was as if she knew that I am going to die soon. And it is as if she] has anointed my body for being buried.
Kwa mwanza panijili maula payega yango, apangite nyo kwa mwanza ya kunisika kwango.
13 I will tell you this: Wherever this good message [about me] is preached {people preach this good message about me} throughout the world, those who preach it will tell what this woman has done, [and as a result] people will [always] remember her.”
Kweli nenda kwamakiya, popote payahubiliwa injili pakilambo chote, kitendo cha kipangite ayo nnwawa, chalowa pangilwa kwa mwaya kombokya.”
14 Then Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]), [even though he was] one of [us] twelve [disciples], went to the chief priests.
Nga yumo nkati ya balo komi ni ibele, ywakemelwa Yuda Iskariote, ayei kwa apindo ba makuhani,
15 He asked them, “If I enable you to seize [Jesus], how much [money] are you willing to give me?” They [agreed to give him] 30 silver coins. So they counted out the coins and [gave them] to him.
no baya, “Mwalowa mbeya namani mana ninangile?” Ngaba mpemwa Yuda ipande thelathini ya mbanje.
16 From that time Judas watched for an opportunity to enable them to seize [Jesus].
Buka muda wo apalange nafasi ya kwalangya.
17 On the first day [of the week-long festival] (when [we Jews ate] bread which had no yeast in it/of Unleavened Bread), [we] disciples went to Jesus and asked, “Where do you want us to prepare [the meal for] the Passover [celebration] so that [we can] eat [it with] you?”
Hata lisoba lya kwanza lya mikate yange lola, anapunzi banyendeli Yesu na kumakiya, “Kwaako kupala tukutayarishie ulye chakulya cha Pasaka?”
18 [In reply], he [gave instructions to two disciples about where they should go. He] said [to them], “Go into [the city] to a man [with whom I have previously arranged this]. Tell him that the teacher says, ‘The time [MTY] [that I told you about] is near. I am going to celebrate the Passover [meal] with my disciples at your house, [and I have sent these two to prepare the meal].’”
Ngabakiya, “Muyende mjini kwa mundu fulani na mumakiye, mwalimu abaya, “Muda wango uyomwike. Nicha yomolya pasaka pamope ni anapunzi bango munyumba yako.””
19 So the [two] disciples did as Jesus told them. They [went and] prepared the Passover [meal in that man’s house].
Anapunzi gabapanga kati Yesu mwalangile, batayarishe chakulya cha Pasaka.
20 When it was evening, Jesus was eating the meal with [us] twelve disciples.
Pasaka iikite kitamunyo, atami lya chakulya pamope na anapunzi bake balo komi ni ibele.
21 While we were eating, he said [to us], “Listen carefully to this: One of you is going to enable [my enemies] to seize me.”
Pabile kabalya chakulya, atibaya, “Kweli nenda kwabakiya panga pakatikati yinu yumo apala kunisaliti.
22 [We] were very sad. We began to say to him, one after the other, “Lord, (it is surely not I!/I’m not the one, am I?) [RHQ]”
Batihuzunika muno, na kila yumo ande kunaluya, “Nenga buli kwa, Ngwana?”
23 He replied, “The one who will enable my enemies to seize me is one of you who is dipping bread [MTY] into [the sauce in] the dish along with me.
Kayangwa, aywo ywasanja pamope na nenga mubakuri ngalowa kunisaliti.
24 [It is certain that] I, the one who came from heaven, will [die], because that is what has been written {[the prophets] have written} about me. But there will be terrible punishment for the man who enables [my enemies] to seize me! It would be better for that man if he had never been born!”
Mwana wa Adamu endabuka, kati mwaiandikilwe. Ila ole wake mundu ywasaliti mwana wa Adamu! Yanogite bora mundu ywo akakotoka belekwa.”
25 Then Judas, the one who was going to betray him, said, “Teacher, (surely it is not I!/I’m not the one, am I?) [RHQ]” Jesus replied, “Yes, you are the one.”
Yuda ywapala kusaliti atibaya, “Je, nenga mwalimu?” Yesu kammakiya, “Ngawenga wolongela.”
26 While we were eating, Jesus took [a small loaf of] bread and thanked God for it. He broke it [into pieces] and gave it to [us] disciples, and said, “Take this [bread and] eat [it]. [It represents] my body.”
Pababile kaba lya chakulya, Yesu autweli nkate, atikubariki, na metwana. Apei anapunzi bake no baya, “Mutole, mulye. Aye yega yango.”
27 Later he took a cup [of wine] and thanked [God for it]. Then he gave it to us, saying, “Drink some [of the wine in this cup], all of you.
Ngatola kikombe no shukuru, ngapeya no baya, Munye mwabote mukikombe chee.
28 [The wine in] this cup [represents] my blood, which will soon flow [from my body. With] my blood I [will sign] the new agreement [that God is making] to forgive the sins of many [people].
Kwa mwanja aye maiyango yo lagano kwango, yaipenganika kwa sababu banansima kwa kwasamiya sambi.
29 Note this carefully: I will not drink wine in this way any more until the time when I drink it with you with a new [meaning. That will happen] when my Father [enables me to begin] to rule as king.”
Lakini nenda kuamakiya, nanywali kae matunda ya zabibu go, ata lisoba lelo lyana lowanywa pamope namwee ku'utawala wa Tate bango.”
30 After we sang a hymn, we started out towards Olive [Tree] Hill.
Payomwile yemba mwambo, batiboka yenda kukitombe cha mizeituni.
31 [On the way], Jesus told us, “This night all of you will desert me because of [what will happen to] me! [This is certain to happen] because [these words that God said] are written [in the Scriptures: ] ‘I will [cause] the shepherd to be killed, and [all] the sheep will be scattered {scatter}.’
Boka po Yesu atikwabakiya, “Kilo cheno mwabote walowa kwikobala kwa mwanja nenge, kwasababu itiandikilwa, Nalowa kukombwa mchungaji na ngondolo bakikundi basambalalika.
32 But after I have [died and] become alive again, I will go ahead of you to Galilee [district and meet you there].”
Lakini baada yo yoka kwango, nalowa longolya yenda Galilaya.”
33 Peter replied, “Perhaps all [the other disciples] will desert you [when they see what happens to you], but I [certainly] will never [leave you]!”
Lakini Petro atikummakiya, “Hata mana itei bote bakukani kwa mwanja ya makowe gagalowa kupata, Nenga nikukana kwaa.
34 Jesus replied to him, “The truth is that this very night, before the rooster crows, you will say three times that you do not know me!”
Yesu kannyangwa, “Kweli nenda kuabakiya, kilo cheno ngoko nanome anabeka kwaa, alowa kunikana mara itatu.”
35 Peter said to him, “Even if they kill me [while I am defending you], I will never say that I do not know you!” All [the rest of us] disciples also said the same [thing].
Petro ngamakiya, hata mana itei waa na wenga, nikukana kwaa.”Na anapunzi bake benge bote babaite nyonyonyo.
36 Then Jesus went with us to a place that is called {that people call} Gethsemane. There he said to [most of] us, “Stay here while I go over there and pray.”
Baadae Yesu ayei nabo pandu papakemelwa. Gethsemane atikwabakiya anapunzi bake, “Mutame paa wakati paniyenda loba apo.”
37 He took Peter, James, and John with him. He became extremely distressed.
Apotwi Petro na bana abele ba Zebedayo ngatumbwa huzunika na sikitika.
38 Then he said to them, “I [SYN] am very sorrowful, so much so that I [feel as if I were] about to die! Remain here and stay awake with me!”
Boka po atikwabakiya, “Roho yango yenda minya muno, hata kiasi cho waa. Mwiigale papamukeshe loba nanee.”
39 After going a little further, he threw himself face down [on the ground]. He prayed, “My Father, if it is possible [MTY], do not make me have to endure the suffering [that is coming] now. But do not do as I want. Instead, do as you want!”
Ayei nnonge pachene, kalola pae wa kukama, no loba, Tate bango, mana kewezekana, kikombe sekinipele, kana ipange kati mwanipala nenga, ila kati mwamupata mwee.”
40 Then he returned to the [three] disciples and saw that they were sleeping. He [woke] Peter and said to him, “(I am disappointed that you [men fell asleep and] were not able to stay awake with me for just a short time!/Why were you men not able to stay awake with me for just one hour?) [RHQ]
Ngayendeya anapunzi kakolya bangonjike lugono, ngamakiya Petro, mwanja namani ukotwike keleka pamope na nee kwa lisaa limo?
41 You must keep alert and pray so that you can resist when you are tempted {something tempts you}. You want [to do what I tell you], but you [SYN] are not strong enough [to actually do it].”
Mukeleke mulobe linga kana uyingii mumajaribu. Roho ibile radhi bai, lakini yega ibii zaipu.”
42 He went away a second time. He prayed, “My Father, if it is necessary for me to suffer [LIT], may what you want happen!”
Atiboka kae mara yene ibele yoloba, “Tate bango, mana itei likowe lee ngwesa kwaa kulikwepa na lazima nikinyweli kikombe chee, mwamupendi mwenga itimii,”
43 When he returned to the [three disciples], he saw that they were asleep [again]. They could not keep their eyes open [IDM].
Kaabuya kae aisi kwakolya bagonjike lugono, mana minyo gabe gabi matopau.
44 So he left them and went away again. He prayed the third time, saying the same thing [that he had prayed before].
Ngabakiya kae kaboka ngayengda loba mara yenge itatu kabaya makowe gagalo.
45 Then he returned to us disciples. He [woke] us [up and] said to us, “(I am disappointed that you are still sleeping and resting!/Why are you still sleeping and resting?) [RHQ] [Look] Someone is about to enable sinful [men] to seize [me], the one who came from heaven!
Baadae Yesu ayendeli anapunzi bake nakwabakiya, “Bado mugonjike na pomolya? Mulinge saa iegelile, mwana wa Adamu endasa litiwa mmokoya bene sambi.
46 Get up! Let’s go [to meet them] Here comes the one who is enabling them to seize me!”
Muyumuke tuboke. Mulinge yolo ywapala kunisaliti aegelite.”
47 While [Jesus] was still speaking, Judas [arrived. Even though he was] one of [us] twelve [disciples], he came [to enable Jesus’ enemies to seize him]. A large crowd carrying swords and clubs was with him. They had been sent by the chief priests and elders {the chief priests and [Jewish] elders had sent them}.
Wakati abibalo kalongela, Yuda yumo kati ya balo komi ni ibele, atiisa. kipenga sa bandu chatiisa nabo, kaliboka kwa apindo ba makuhani na apindo ba bandu. Baisi na mapanga na ndolonga.
48 Judas had [previously] arranged to give them a signal, saying, “The man whom I will kiss is the one [you want]. Seize him!”
Na mundu ywakusudie Yesu ampei ishara, atibaya, yoloywa nannoniya ngaywo. Mwamoywe.”
49 He immediately went to Jesus and said, “Greetings, Teacher!” Then he kissed Jesus [on the neck/cheek].
Mra ngaisa kwa Yesu no baya, “Salamu, mwalimu!”Nakunnoniya.
50 Jesus replied, “Friend, is it [to kiss me] that you are here?” (OR, “Do what you have come for!”) Then [the men who came with Judas] stepped forward and seized Jesus.
Yesu ngammakiya, “Webwiga lyango, Ulipange lelo lya likuletike,” Ngabaisa kumoywa Yesu na maboko gabe.
51 Suddenly, one of the men who was with Jesus pulled his sword out [of its sheath]. He struck the servant of the high priest [to kill him], [but only] cut off his ear.
Lola, mundu yumo ywabile pamope ni Yesu, ngasolomwa kyembe na kumkombwa mmanda wa ntumwa nkolo na kukata likutu lyake.
52 Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back in its sheath! All those who try to kill others with a sword will themselves be killed with a sword!
Nga Yesu kaamakiya, “kelebuya lipanga lyako mulupata lwake. Kwa mwanza bote babatumya lipanga balowa polota kwa lipanga.
53 Do you think that [RHQ] if I asked my Father, he would not immediately send more than (twelve armies of/72,000) angels to help me?
Muwasa panga ngwesa kwaa kwakema Tate bango, naywembe alowezekunilumya majeshi zaidi ya komi ni ibele ba malaika?
54 [But if I did that, what the prophets] have written in the Scriptures [about what will happen to the Messiah] would not be fulfilled {happen} [RHQ].”
Lakini kwa kitiwi gagaandikilwe gaweza timya, aga ngagapalikwa gapiti?”
55 At that time Jesus said to the crowd [that was seizing him], “(It is ridiculous that you have come [here] to seize me with swords and clubs, as [if I were] a bandit!/Have you come here to seize me with swords and clubs, as if I were a bandit?) [RHQ] Day after day I sat in the Temple [courtyard], teaching [the people]. Why did you not arrest me [then]?
Wakati woo Yesu kakikoya chelo kipenga sa bandu, “Mbona mwisi na mapanga na mandolonga kuniboywa kati na mwii? Kila lisoba natami muhekalu kanipundisa, mwaniboywi kwaa!
56 But all this is happening to fulfill what the prophets [have written in] the Scriptures [about me].” Then all of us disciples deserted Jesus and ran away.
Lakini aga gote gapangike lenga maandiko ya manabii gatimii.” Nga anapunzi bake kabanneka ni kabatila.
57 The men who had seized Jesus took him [to the house where] Caiaphas, the high priest, [lived]. The men who taught the [Jewish] laws and the [Jewish] elders had already gathered [there].
Balo babamoywile Yesu bampeike kwaa Kayfa, kuhani nkolo, pandu pabakusanyike aandishi na apindo babile bakusanyilwe pamope.
58 Peter followed [Jesus] at a distance. He came to the high priest’s courtyard. He entered [the courtyard] and sat down with the guards to see what would happen.
Lakini Petro atikukengama msongo kwakutalu mpaka mukumbi wa kuhani nkolo. Ajingii munyumba notama pamope na alinzi akibone chakilowa pangila.
59 The chief priests and the rest of the [Jewish] Council were trying to find people who would tell lies about Jesus so that they could [convince the Roman authorities to] execute him.
Bai apindo amakuhani na baraza lyote babile kabapala ushaidi wa ubocho kwa Yesu, lenga bate kumulaga.
60 But even though many people spoke lies about him, they did not find anyone [who said anything that was useful]. Finally two men came forward
Ijapo bapitike mashahidi banansima, lakini bapatike kwa sababu. Ila baadae mashaidi abele bati kwipiya nnonge
61 and said, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy God’s Temple and to rebuild it within three days.’”
no baya, “Mundu yo atibaya “Ngwesa kulibomwana hekalu lya Nnongo na kuchenga kwa masoba gatatu.”
62 Then the high priest stood up and said to Jesus, “Are you not going to reply? What [do you say about] these things that they are saying [to accuse] you?”
Kuhani nkolo kayema ni kunaluya, “Huweza kwaa yangwa? Hababakushitakya namani wenga?”
63 But Jesus remained silent. Then the high priest said to him, “I command you to tell us [the truth], knowing that the all-powerful God [is listening to you]: Are you the Messiah, (the Son of God/the man who is also God)?”
Lakini Yesu atami liki. Kuhani kulo ngamakiya, “Kati Nnongo mwabile, nenda kulasimisha utubakiye, panga wenga wa Kristo, wa mwana wa Nnongo.”
64 Jesus replied, “Yes, [it is as] you say. But I will also say this to all of you: Some day you will see [me], the one who came from heaven, sitting beside [MTY] Almighty [God], and ruling. You will also see me coming on the clouds [from] heaven!”
Yesu kayangwa, “Wenga wa mwene ubaite likowe lyo. Lakini enakubakiya, boka sayeno no yendelya wamona mwana wa Adamu atami kuluboko lwa mmalyo lwene ngupu, na kaida mu maunde ga kunani.”
65 Then the high priest tore his outer garment. [That was the custom to show that he was shocked to hear Jesus say that he was equal to God]. Then he said, “This man has insulted God! He claims to be equal with God! (We certainly do not need anyone else to testify [against this man]!/Why should we seek any more people who will testify [against this man]?) [RHQ] You heard what he said!
Nga kuhani nkolo kalendwana ngobo yake no baya, Atikupuru! Je, tupala kae ushahidi wakele? Linge, tayari muyowine kakufuru.
66 What have you decided?” [The Jewish leaders] replied, “[According to our laws], he [is guilty and] deserves to be executed!”
Je! muwaza namani? Ngabayangwa no baya.”Ipalikwa awee.”
67 Then [some of them] spat in his face. [Others] struck him with their fists. Others, [after they blindfolded him], slapped him
Ngaba mwuniya mata kuminya na kukombwa makofi kwa maboko gabe,
68 and said, “[Since you claim that] [IRO] [you are] the Messiah, tell us who hit you!”
no baya, ututabilie wenga wa Kristo. Naiywa kukombwile?”
69 Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. A servant girl came up to him [and looked at him]. She said, “You also were with Jesus, [that man] from Galilee [district]!”
Wakati wo Petro atami panja kuhukumbi, amanda alwawa batikunnyendelya no baya, “Wenga wabi pamope ni Yesu wa Galilaya.
70 But while everyone there was listening, he denied it. He said, “I do not know what you are talking about!”
Lakini atikana nnonge yabote, ngabaya nee nitangite kwaa chaakibaya.”
71 Then he went out to the gateway of the courtyard. Another servant girl saw him and said to the people who were standing nearby, “This man was with Jesus, [the man] from Nazareth.”
Payei pannango, mmanda ywenge nwawa atikumona na kwabakiya bababile apo,'Mundu yoo nembe abile pamope ni Yesu wa Nazareti.
72 But [Peter] again denied it. He said, “May God punish me [if I am lying]! I [tell you], I do not even know that man!”
Ngankana kae kwa kulapa, “Nenga nintangite kwaa mundu yolo.”
73 After a little while, one of the people who were standing there approached Peter and said to him, “It is certain that you are one of those [who were with that man]. We can tell from your accent that you [are from Galilee.”]
Muda mwipi baadae, balobabayemi karibu, batiyenda yolongela ni Petro, kwa kweli wenga wipamope nakwe, kwa mana hata longela kwako kwenda yowanika.
74 Then Peter began to proclaim loudly that God should curse him [if he was lying]. He asked God in heaven to witness [that he was telling the truth] and said, “I do not know that man!” Immediately a rooster crowed.
Nga tumbwa lapangwa no lapa,'Nenga nitangite kwa mundu yoo,” Mara ngoko kabeka.
75 Then Peter remembered the words that Jesus had spoken [to him], “Before the rooster crows, you will say three times that you do not know me.” And Peter went [out of the courtyard], crying because he was very sad [about what he had done].
Petro kakombokya makowe gamakiye Yesu. Pai panga kabla ngoko anabeka kwaa walowa nikana mara itatu. Ngapita panja kono kalela.
