Yuhana 18
1 Na Yesu uleli ulire, a nuzu a nya nin nono katwa me a kafin kurawan kidiron, kikanga na awa piru nkon kunen ku, ame nin nono katwa me.
When Jesus had spoken these things, he went out with his disciples beyond the brook Kedron, where was a garden, which he and his disciples entered.
2 Nene Yahuda, ulenge na awa cinu ulewughe, ame wang wa yiru kitene, bara Yesu wa duzo kiti kane ko kome kubi nin nono katwa me.
And Judas, who delivered him up, also knew the place, because Jesus often went thither with his disciples.
3 Yahuda, na amal se ligozi na soja nin nadidya kiti ndya na Priest a Afarisawa, da kitime nin tila, tico a imon likum.
Judas, then, having received the band of soldiers and attendants from the chief priests and Pharisees, came thither with torches and lamps and weapons.
4 Yesu, ule na awa yiru nin vat nimon na idi sesughe, kata udu ubun a tirino nani, “Idin piziru ghari ku?”
Then Jesus, knowing all things that were coming upon him, went forth, and said to them: Whom do you seek?
5 I kawaghe i woro “Yesu Nnazaret.” Yesu woro nani, “Mere ame.” Yahuda, ule na awa lewu ghe, awa yissing ligowe nin na soje.
They answered him: Jesus the Nazarene. Jesus said to them: I am he. Judas, also, who delivered him up, was standing among them.
6 Na aworo nani, “Mere” ikpilla nin kidung i deu kutyen.
Then, when he said to them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground.
7 A tirino nani tutung, “idin piziru ghari ku?” I kuru i woro, “Yesu Nnazaret.”
Then he asked them again: Whom do you seek? They said: Jesus the Nazarene.
8 Yesu kawa nani, “Nworo minu mere ame; andi meri idin piziri, sunan alele i nya ucin mene.”
Jesus answered: I have told you that I am he. If, then, you seek me, let these go away.
9 Uwa so nani uliru nan kulo na awa woro, “Nalenge na una nii, na nna wultun unit urum ba.”
This he said, that the word might be fulfilled which he had spoken: Of those whom thou hast given me; I have lost none.
10 Simon Bitrus, ule na awa min kussangali, a shuku kunin a kowo kucin ndya na Priest kutuf ncara uleme me. Lissa kucine wadi Malkusari.
Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it, and struck the servant of the chief priest, and cut off his right ear. The name of the servant was Malchus.
11 Yesu woro Bitrus ku, “kurtuno kusangale nanya kuparin me. Kakuke na Ucif nani nan nwa sono kani ba?”
Then Jesus said to Peter: Put up your sword into its scabbard. Shall I not drink the cup that my Father has given me?
12 Ligozin na soje, a adidya mine, nin na didya na Yahudawa tunna ikifo Yesu ku i tereghe.
Then the band of soldiers, and the officer, and the attendants of the Jews, took Jesus and bound him,
13 Itu ido ninghe kitin Annas, bara ame wadi kumaran Kefas, ulenge na awa di udya na Prieste nloli likusse.
and led him first to Annas; for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was chief priest that year.
14 Nene Kefasari ulenge na awa ni a Yahudawa ukpilizu nworu ucaun unit urum ku bara anite.
It was Caiaphas who had given counsel to the Jews, that it was profitable that one man should die for the people.
15 Simon Bitrus dofino Yesu ku, nanere wang nkang gono katwa we. Ame kani gono katwa we, udya na Priest wa yirughe, amini wa piru kuti nshara ndya na Prieste nin Yesu;
And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. And that other disciple was acquainted with the chief priest, and he went in with Jesus into the palace of the chief priest.
16 Bitrus wa yissin kibulun ndas. Ame kani gono katwa we, na udya na Prieste wa yirughe tunna anuzu udas adi lirin nin kucin kuwani na kuwadi nca kibulunghe a pirna Bitrus ku nanye.
But Peter stood without near the door. Then the other disciple, who was acquainted with the chief priest, went out and spoke to the door-keeper, and brought Peter in.
17 Kucin kuwane na awa din nca kibulughe woro Bitrus ku. “Nafe umonghari nanyan nono katwa nnit ulelere ba?” A woro “Na meri ba.”
Then the maid-servant who kept the door said to Peter: Are you not also one of the disciples of this man? He said: I am not.
18 Inung acine nin na dugari wa yissin kitene; iwa susso ula nin ticini bara tituwui wadi, inani wa di lanzu nla, Bitrus wadi ligowe nan ghinu, awa yissin nlanzun nla.
And the servants and the attendants, having made a fire of coals, for it was cold, were standing and warming themselves. And Peter stood with them, and warmed himself.
19 Udya na Priest uni wa tirin Yesu ku ubellen nono katwa me nin dursuzu kiti me.
Then the chief priest questioned Jesus concerning his disciples and his teaching.
20 Yesu kawa ghe aworo, “Nna suzu uliru kiti nanit kanang; Nna suzu uliru nanya niti nlira nin niti nilau, kikanga na a Yahudawa na da zurso ku vat. na nna bellu umon uliru likire ba.
Jesus answered him: I have spoken openly to the world; I always taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, where the Jews come together, and in secret I have spoken nothing.
21 Inyaghari nta umini ntirini? Tirino alenge na ina lanzan imon ile na nna bellu. Anit alele yiru imon ilenge na nna bellu.”
Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard, what things I said to them. Behold, they know what I have said.
22 Na Yesu belle nani, umong nanya na dugari wa yissin kupo Yesu a tunna a rioghe nin cara me a woro. “Nanere uma kpanu udya na Prieste?”
When he had spoken thus, one of the attendants, who was standing by, struck Jesus with his open hand, saying: Do you answer the chief priest thus?
23 Yesu kawaghe aworo, “Andi nbelle imonimong nanzang, durson ni utanu nighe, vat nani andi nkawa gegeme, inyaghari nta umini reoyi?”
Jesus answered him: If I have spoken evil, testify of the evil; but if well, why do you strike me?
24 Annas uni wa teccu Yesu ku a turunghe kitin Kefas udya na Priest.
Then Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas the chief priest.
25 Simon Bitrus wa yissin nlazun nla. Anite woroghe, “Nafe wang umong nanyan nono katwa mere ba?” A nari ulire a woro, “Na meng di nan ghinu ba.”
And Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. Then they said to him: Are not you also one of his disciples? He denied, and said: I am not.
26 Umong nanya nacin Ndya na Priest na awadi fimus nin lenge na Bitrus wa kalaghe kutufe, wa woro, “Na meng niyenefi kunene ninghe ba?”
One of the servants of the chief priest, who was a kinsman of him whose ear Peter had cut off, said: Did I not see you in the garden with him?
27 Bitrus kuru anari ulire, kukulok tunna ku kolsuno mas.
Then Peter denied again. And immediately the cock crew.
28 Iwa nya nin Yesu kitin Kefas udu kuti nshara. Nin kwui dindinghari wadi, na inung ati mine wa piru kuti nsharawe ba, bara iwa ti atimine ndinong, inan se ulin paska.
Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas to the governor’s palace. It was the morning hour. And, in order that they might not be denied, but that they might eat the passover, they did not go into the governor’s palace.
29 Bilatus nuzu ado kiti mine, a woro, “kuyapin kulaperi idamun liti nnit ulele?”
Then Pilate came out to them, and said: What accusation do you bring against this man?
30 I kawaghe i woro, “Ndafo na unit ulele unan katwa kananzanghari ba, na tiwa damun kitife ba.”
They answered and said to him: If this man were not an evil-doer, we would not have delivered him to you.
31 Bilatus woro nani, “Yiranghe i nyamun idi sughe usharawe ussanmin dert ni duka mine.” A Yahudawe woroghe, “Na udi dert arik molu unit ba.”
Then Pilate said to them: Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law. Then the Jews said to him: It is not lawful for us to put any one to death;
32 Iwa belin nani uliru Yesu na se ukulu, ulire na awa belin wa durso imusin yapin ukulari ama su.
that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spoke, signifying by what death he was about to die.
33 Bilatus kuru a pira kutin sharawe a yicila Yesu ku; a woroghe, “fere ugo na Yahudawe?”
Then Pilate again entered the governor’s palace, and called Jesus, and said to him: Are you the king of the Jews?
34 Yesu kawa, aworoghe, “udin tiru bara litifere sa amonghari nbelin fi utirini?”
Jesus answered him: Do you say this of yourself, or did others speak to you of me?
35 Bilatus kawa, “Na meng Kuyahudawari ba, sa uyene ndi? Anan minfere nin dya na Priest nnakpa fi nacara ning; iyaghari unati?”
Pilate answered: Am I a Jew? Your own nation, and the chief priests have delivered you to me; what have you done?
36 Yesu kawa, aworo, “Tigo ning na tin nle uyiere ba. Nda Tigo ning tin nle uyiere, anan katwa ning wa su likum bara iwa nakpayi nacara na Yahudawa, anan Tigo ning na tina dak unuzun le uyieri ba.”
Jesus answered: My kingdom is not of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I might not be delivered up to the Jews. But now my kingdom is not hence.
37 Bilatus woroghe, “Ani fe ugowarie?” Yesu kawa ghe, “fere woro meng ugowari, bara nanere ina marui, bara nanere nna dak nanya in yie bara nnan na ushaida kidegene. Vat nlenge na ame un kidegenari din lanzu liwui ning.”
Then Pilate said to him: You are a king, then? Jesus answered; You say that I am a king. For this purpose was I born, and for this purpose I came into the world, that I might testify to the truth. Every one that is of the truth, hears my voice.
38 Bitrus woroghe, “Iyaghari kidege?” Na a belle nani, akuru anuzu tutung ado kiti na Yahudawe a woro nani, “Na nse unit ulele nin kulapi ba.
Pilate said to him: What is truth? And when he had said this, he again came out to the Jews, and said to them: I find no fault in him.
39 Idi nin tanda nworu nma sun minu kucin kurum nin kubin paska. Nene idi nin su nsun minu ugo na Yahudawe?”
But you have a custom, that I release to you one during the passover. Are you willing, then, that I should release to you the king of the Jews?
40 I kuru ijarta nin tiwui kang I woro, “Na unit ulele ba, ama Barabbas.” Barabbas wa di ukiri udyawari.
They all, then, cried out, saying: Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.
