John 19
1 So Pilate then took Jesus and flogged him.
Nipele, che Pilato ŵalamwile kuti Che Yesu ajigalikwe, aputikwe mbokola.
2 The soldiers twisted thorns into a crown and put it on his head, and dressed him in a purple garment.
Ŵangondo nombe ŵakolosisye chindu mpela singwa ja miiŵa, ŵambwasisye Che Yesu mu ntwe wao ni kuntakusya mwinjilo wa chimwenye.
3 They kept saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and they kept slapping him.
Ŵaliji nkwaichilila ni kuti, “Tukunkomasya, Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi!” Nipele ŵamputile majanda.
4 Then Pilate went out again, and said to them, “Behold, I bring him out to you, that you may know that I find no basis for a charge against him.”
Che Pilato ŵakopweche sooni paasa ni kwasalila Ŵayahudi, “Nnole, ngunyikanawo paasa, mmanyilile kuti uneji nganinansimana ni magambo gagaligose ga kunlamula mundu ju.”
5 Jesus therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. Pilate said to them, “Behold, the man!”
Nipele Che Yesu ŵakopweche paasa ali awasile chindu mpela singwa ja miiŵa mu ntwe mwao ni mwinjilo wa chimwenye. Che Pilato ŵasalile Ŵayahudi, “Nnole mundu nsyene ni aju.”
6 When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they shouted, saying, “Crucify! Crucify!” Pilate said to them, “Take him yourselves and crucify him, for I find no basis for a charge against him.”
Achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakulindilila Nyuumba ja Akunnungu paŵambweni Che Yesu ŵanyanyisye, “Mwaŵambe pansalaba! Mwaŵambe pansalaba!” Che Pilato ŵaasalile, “Munjigale mwachinsyene nkaŵambe pansalaba, pakuŵa uneji ngangugawona magambo gagaligose gakunlamula mundu ju.”
7 The Jews answered him, “We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.”
Ŵayahudi ŵajanjile, “Uweji tukwete malajisyo ni kwa malajisyo go ikusachilwa aweje, ligongo alitesile kuŵa Mwana jwa Akunnungu.”
8 When therefore Pilate heard this saying, he was more afraid.
Che Pilato paŵagapilikene maloŵe go ŵapundile kogopa.
9 He entered into the Praetorium again, and said to Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus gave him no answer.
Nipele ŵajinjile sooni mu nyuumba jakwe, ŵambusisye Che Yesu, “Ana mmweji nkutyochela kwapi?” Nambo Che Yesu ngananjanga chachili chose.
10 Pilate therefore said to him, “Aren’t you speaking to me? Don’t you know that I have power to release you and have power to crucify you?”
Che Pilato ŵansalile, “Ana ngankusaka kuŵecheta ni une? Ana ngankumanyilila kuti ngwete ulamusi wa kungopola pane kummamba pansalaba?”
11 Jesus answered, “You would have no power at all against me, unless it were given to you from above. Therefore he who delivered me to you has greater sin.”
Che Yesu ŵanjanjile, “Ngankakole ulamusi wauli wose kwa uneji ngankapegwe ni Akunnungu. Kwa ligongo lyo mundu jwambeleche uneji kukwenu jwelejo apundile kuŵa ni sambi syejinji.”
12 At this, Pilate was seeking to release him, but the Jews cried out, saying, “If you release this man, you aren’t Caesar’s friend! Everyone who makes himself a king speaks against Caesar!”
Chitandile pelepo, che Pilato ŵasosile litala lya kwalechelela Che Yesu. Nambo Ŵayahudi ŵanyanyisye, “Mwannechelelaga mundu ju, mmwejo nganimma mbusanga jwa mwenye jwa ku Loma, pakuŵa mundu jwalijose jwakulitenda mwenye akunkanila mwenye jwankulu jwa ku Loma!”
13 When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called “The Pavement”, but in Hebrew, “Gabbatha.”
Nipele che Pilato paŵagapilikene maloŵe go ŵanyichenawo Che Yesu paasa, ni nsyene ŵatemi pa chitengu cha kulamula, pelepo pakuŵilanjikwa, “Luŵala lwa Maganga.” Mchiebulania, Gabata.
14 Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, at about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, “Behold, your King!”
Lyuŵa lyaliji pamtwe, lyuŵa lyakuŵichila chile Pasaka. Che Pilato ŵaasalile Ŵayahudi, “Mwenye jwenu aju!”
15 They cried out, “Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Shall I crucify your King?” The chief priests answered, “We have no king but Caesar!”
Ŵanyawo ŵanyanyisye, “Mwaulaje! Mwaulaje! Mwaŵambe pansalaba!” Che Pilato ŵausisye, “Uli, nammambe mwenye jwenu?” Achakulu ŵambopesi ŵajanjile, “Uweji nganitukola mwenye jwine ikaŵe mwenye jwa ku Loma pe!”
16 So then he delivered him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led him away.
Pelepo che Pilato ŵampeleche Che Yesu mmakono mwa ŵangondo kuti akaaŵambe pansalaba. Nipele, ŵangondo ŵanjigele Che Yesu.
17 He went out, bearing his cross, to the place called “The Place of a Skull”, which is called in Hebrew, “Golgotha”,
Che Yesu ŵakopweche ali ajigele nsalaba wakwe kwaula kwiuto kwakukuŵilanjikwa, “Chikalakasa cha Ntwe”, Mchiebulania pakuŵilanjikwa Goligota.
18 where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the middle.
Pelepo ni paŵaŵambile Che Yesu, ni ŵandu ŵane ŵaŵili pamo nawo, jwine kunchiji ni jwine kundyo kwao ni Che Yesu pambindikati.
19 Pilate wrote a title also, and put it on the cross. There was written, “JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
Che Pilato ŵalembile chimanyisyo ni ŵachiŵisile pachanya nsalaba. Ni chimanyisyo cho chalembekwe yelei, “Che Yesu jwa ku Nasaleti, Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi.”
20 Therefore many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.
Nipele Ŵayahudi ŵajinji ŵachisyomile chimanyisyo cho pakuŵa paŵaŵambile Che Yesu pala paliji chiŵandi ni musi. Sooni chimanyisyo cho chalembekwe Mchiebulania ni Chilatini ni Chigiliki.
21 The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, “Don’t write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but, ‘he said, “I am King of the Jews.”’”
Nipele achakulu ŵambopesi ŵa Ŵayahudi ŵaasalile che Pilato kuti, “Nkalemba, ‘Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi,’ nambo mundu ju ŵatite, ‘Uneji ndili Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi.’”
22 Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
Che Pilato ŵaasalile, “Chilembile, nembile!”
23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
Ŵangondo paŵamasile kwaŵamba Che Yesu pansalaba, ŵajigele iwalo yao ni ŵagaŵenye maunjili ncheche, jwangondo jwalijose liunjili limo. Sooni ŵajigele mwinjilo wakwe, wanganiukola papatotekwe, waliji chipande chimo chachiluchikwe kutyochela mwinani mpaka paasi.
24 Then they said to one another, “Let’s not tear it, but cast lots for it to decide whose it will be,” that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which says, “They parted my garments among them. They cast lots for my clothing.” Therefore the soldiers did these things.
Nipele ŵangondo wo ŵasalilene, “Tunapapulanye nambo tutende gudugudu kuti uwe wacheni.” Yeleyo yatendekwe kuti gamalile Malembelo ga Akunnungu gagakuti, “Ŵagaŵene iwalo yangu, ni mwinjilo wangu ŵatendele gudugudu.” Yeleyo ni yatite pakupanganya ŵangondo wo.
25 But standing by Jesus’ cross were his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.
Pachiŵandi ni nsalaba u Che Yesu ŵajimi achikulugwe Che Yesu ni apwao achikulugwe ni che Maliamu ŵankwawo che Kileopa ni che Maliamu jwa musi wa ku Magidala.
26 Therefore when Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing there, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son!”
Che Yesu paŵambweni achikulugwe ni jwakulijiganya juŵannonyele nnope jula ajimi kuŵandikana ni pepala, ŵaasalile achikulugwe, “Amao, jwelejo ni mwanagwenu.”
27 Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” From that hour, the disciple took her to his own home.
Sooni ŵansalile jwakulijiganya jula kuti, “Nnole, jwelejo ni achikulu ŵenu.” Ni kutandila lyuŵa lyo jwakulijiganya jo ŵanjigele che Maliamu kuti akatame nawo kumangwakwe.
28 After this, Jesus, seeing that all things were now finished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I am thirsty!”
Che Yesu ŵaimanyilile kuti yose yaliji imalile, ni Malembelo ga Akunnungu kuti gamalile, ŵatite, “Jingwete njota.”
29 Now a vessel full of vinegar was set there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop, and held it at his mouth.
Chapali kweleko chiŵiga chigumbele divai jakuipa. Nipele, ŵajigele chindu mpela lidodoki ni ŵatoŵele mu divai mo ni kutaŵilila pachitela chachikuŵilanjikwa esopo ni kuchiŵika pakang'wa pa Che Yesu.
30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, “It is finished!” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
Che Yesu paŵamasile kupegwa divai jo, ŵatite, “Yose imalile!” Ni ŵakotamisye ntwe wao ni kwasika.
31 Therefore the Jews, because it was the Preparation Day, so that the bodies wouldn’t remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken away.
Lyaliji lyuŵa lya kuŵichila chile kwa kupumulila likanaŵe Lyuŵa lya Pasaka. Nipele achakulu ŵa Ŵayahudi nganasaka iilu itaame pa nsalaba pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila ligongo Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila lyaliji lyuŵa lyajikape. Kwapele ŵaŵendile che Pilato apokosole makongolo ga ŵele ŵaŵaŵambikwe pa nsalaba ni kuitulusya iilu yao.
32 Therefore the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with him;
Nipele ŵangondo ŵajawile ni kugapokosola makongolo ga mundu jwaandanda ni jwaaŵili ŵaŵaliji aŵambikwe pansalaba pamo ni Che Yesu.
33 but when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they didn’t break his legs.
Nambo paŵaichilile Che Yesu, ŵaiweni kuti awile, kwapele nganagapokosola makongolo gao.
34 However, one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.
Nambo jwangondo jumo ŵansomile Che Yesu mpaamba pa luŵalati, ni papopo jakopweche miasi ni meesi.
35 He who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, that you may believe.
Nombe juŵaiweni yeleyo ilinkutendekwa aŵalasile umboni melepe ni ŵanyamwe nkombole kukulupilila. Ni umboni wasasile uli usyene, sooni jwelejo akumanyilila kuti akusala usyene.
36 For these things happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled, “A bone of him will not be broken.”
Yelei yatendekwe kuti gamalile Malembelo ga Akunnungu gagakuti, “Ngapagwa liupa lyao lichilipokoswe.”
37 Again another Scripture says, “They will look on him whom they pierced.”
Nipele Malembelo ga Akunnungu gakusala sooni, “Chiŵalole ŵeŵala ŵaŵansomile.”
38 After these things, Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked of Pilate that he might take away Jesus’ body. Pilate gave him permission. He came therefore and took away his body.
Payamasile yeleyo che Yusufu jwa ku Alimataya, ŵaŵendile che Pilato kuti achitulusye chiilu chi Che Yesu pa nsalaba. Che Yusufu ŵaliji jwakulijiganya jwao Che Yesu, nambo nganalilosyaga, pakuŵa ŵajogopaga achakulu ŵa Ŵayahudi. Nipele che Pilato ŵajitichisye. Che Yusufu ŵajawile ni kuchijigala chiilu chi Che Yesu.
39 Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred Roman pounds.
Che Yusufu ŵalongene ni che Nikodemu, che Nikodemu ju ni jwejula juŵajaulile Che Yesu chilo kundanda ko, ŵaiche ali ajigele mauta gakununjila yambone ga manemane kuwanganya ni ubani, mpela mbiisi saba ni ibaba iŵili.
40 So they took Jesus’ body, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury.
Nipele ŵachijigele chiilu chi Che Yesu ni kuchiŵijilila mu nguo jeswela pamo ni yakununjila mpela chisyoŵelo cha Ŵayahudi katema ka kusika.
41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden. In the garden was a new tomb in which no man had ever yet been laid.
Nambo peuto paŵaŵambikwe Che Yesu pala wapali ngunda wa mwana, ni mu ngunda mo mwaliji mwana lilembe lya sambano mwakanaŵichikwa mundu jwalijose.
42 Then, because of the Jews’ Preparation Day (for the tomb was near at hand), they laid Jesus there.
Nipele ligongo lyaliji lyuŵa lya Ŵayahudi kuliŵika chile kupumulila, ni sooni pakuŵa lilembe lyo lyaliji pachiŵandi, ŵachiŵisile chiilu chi Che Yesu mwelemo.
