Matiyu 26
1 Kube na Yesu wa malu ubellu nliru une vat, a woro nono katwa me.
When Jesus had ended all these discourses, 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 Passover comes. And the Son of Man will be delivered 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 High Priests and Elders of the People assembled in the court of the palace of the High Priest Caiaphas,
4 Ligowe ipizira tibau nworu ikifo Yeso ku imolughe likire.
and consulted how to get Jesus into their power by stratagem 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, lest there be a riot among the people."
6 Kube na Yesu wa di in Baitanya ngan Simon ukutulu,
Now when Jesus was come to Bethany and was at 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 to Him with a jar of very costly, sweet-scented ointment, which she poured over His head as He reclined at table.
8 Na nono katwa me in yene nani, ayi nana nani i woro, “Nyaghari finu nka kimole?
"Why such waste?" indignantly exclaimed the disciples;
9 Iwa lewu mini nin nikurfu gbardaang ikoso nikimon.”
"for this might have been sold for a considerable sum, and the money given to the poor."
10 Yesu nin yiru nane, a woro iyaghri nta idin bukuru nwani ulele kibinayi? Bara asuyi katwa kacine.
But Jesus heard it, and said to them, "Why are you vexing her? For she has done a most gracious act towards me.
11 Idi ligowe nan nikimone ko kome kubi, na meng ma yitu nan ghinu ko kome kubi ba.
The poor you always have with you, but me you have not always.
12 Ule ukpilyu nnufe kidowe na asuyi, asu nani a kelei bara ukassu nigha.
In pouring this ointment over me, her object was to prepare me for 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.
In solemn truth I tell you that wherever in the whole world this Good News shall be proclaimed, this deed of hers shall be spoken of in memory of her."
14 Umong nanya likure, ulenge na iwa yicughe Yahuda Iskaroti, ado kitin Ngo na Priest
At that time one of the Twelve, the one called Judas Iscariot, went to the High 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 him to you?" So they weighed out to him thirty shekels,
16 Atunna ipizuru ndina ule na ama nakpu nani ame.
and from that moment he was on the look out for an opportunity to betray Him.
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 Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus with the question, "Where shall we 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," He replied, "to a certain man, and tell him, 'The Teacher says, My time is close at hand. It is at your house that I shall keep the Passover with my disciples.'"
19 Nono katwawe su nafo ubellu me, I kyele imonli Npaske.
The disciples did as Jesus directed them, and got the Passover ready.
20 Na kubi kuleleng nta, aso ama li ligowe nin nono katwa me likure.
When evening came, He was at table with the twelve disciples,
21 Idi nanya kilewe, aworo, “Ndin bellu minu kidegen umon nanya mine ma lewui.”
and the meal was proceeding, when Jesus said, "In solemn truth I tell you that one of you will betray me."
22 Ita aburi asirne kang, kogha nanya mine tiringhe, sameri Cikilari?”
Intensely grieved they began one after another to ask Him, "Can it be I, Master?"
23 Akawa aworo, “ulenge na adin sho ncara kishik kirume nin mi amere ma lewui.
"The one who has dipped his fingers in the bowl with me," He answered, "is the man 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.”
The Son of Man is indeed going as is written concerning Him; but alas for that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It had been a happy thing for that man if he had never been born."
25 Yahuda ulenge na amere ma lewughe woro, “Sa menghari unan dursusu niyerti?” Aworoghe, ubelle nin litife.”
Then Judas, the disciple who was betraying Him, asked, "Can it be I, Rabbi?" "It is you," He replied.
26 Na iwa di kilewe, Yesu yauna ufungal, ata nlira ku, a pucco unin. Ana nono katwa me unin aworo, “Seren, leon. Kidowo nighari.”
During the meal Jesus took a Passover biscuit, blessed it and broke it. He then gave it to the disciples, saying, "Take this and eat it: it is my body."
27 Ayauna kakkuke ata nlira ku, a nakpa nani aworo, “Sonon, vat mine.
And He took the cup and gave thanks, and gave it to them saying, "Drink from it, all of you;
28 Mone nmii nalikawali nigharibmongo na ina gutun bara gbardang na se ukusu nalapi.
for this is my blood which is to be poured out for many for the remission of sins--the blood which ratifies the Covenant.
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 again take the produce of the vine till that day when I shall drink the new wine with you in my Father's Kingdom."
30 Na ita avu nimalin, inuzu inya ucindu likup in zaitun.
So they sang the 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 said Jesus, "This night all of you will stumble and fail in your fidelity to me; for it is written, 'I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered in all directions.'
32 Vat nani asa ifyyi, nma nyiu ubun mine udu nanyan Galili.”
But after I have risen to life again I will go before you into Galilee."
33 Bitrus woroghe, “Andi vat min ba diu bara fewe, na meng wasa nma tiro nsunfi ba.”
"All may stumble and fail," said Peter, "but I never will."
34 Yesu woroghe, meng din bellufi kidegen, nin kyitik kane kukulok mayitu kusa kolsino ba, uba woru na uyiri ba so titat.”
"In solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that this very night, before the cock crows, you will three times disown me."
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," declared Peter, "I will never disown you." In like manner protested all the disciples.
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 place called Gethsemane. And He said to the disciples, "Sit down here, whilst I go yonder and there pray."
37 A yira Bitrus ku nin na saun Zabeden ligowe nanghe atunna a cizina usirzu nayi, ayime nana.
And He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zabdi. Then He began to be full of anguish and distress,
38 A tunna a woro nani, “Liburi nin siro bibit, nafo nku. Son kikane i yenje kiti nan mi.”
and He said to them, "My soul is crushed with anguish to the very point of death; wait here, and keep awake 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 forward a short distance He fell on His face and prayed. "My Father," He said, "if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as Thou willest."
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 the disciples and found them asleep, and He said to Peter, "Alas, none of you could keep awake with me for even a single hour!
41 Yenjen kiti isu nlira bara iwa piru nanyan dumuzunu. Uruhe yinna, kidowere dinin likara ba.”
Keep awake, and pray that you may not enter into temptation: the spirit is right willing, but the body is frail."
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, saying, "My Father, if it is impossible for this cup to pass without my drinking it, Thy will be done."
43 Ada tutung ada se nani idin moro, bara iyizi mine wa ti getek nin moro kang.
He came and again found them asleep, for they were very tired.
44 Akuru a nya tutung, adi ti nlira uti un tat a belle uliru urume.
So He left them, and went away once more and prayed a third time, again using 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 and rest. See, the moment is close at hand when the Son of Man is to be betrayed into the hands of sinful men.
46 Fitan nari ti nya. Yenen ulenge na aba lewiye nda duru.”
Rouse yourselves. Let us be going. 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.
He had scarcely finished speaking when Judas came--one of the Twelve--accompanied by a great crowd of men armed with swords and bludgeons, sent by the High 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 agreed upon a sign with them, to direct them. He had said, "The one whom I kiss is the man: lay hold of him."
49 Ata mas ada kitin Yesu aworo, Ndin lissufi una dursuzu ninyerte! A nyukunghe.
So he went straight to Jesus and said, "Peace to you, Rabbi!" And he kissed Him eagerly.
50 Yesu woroghe, “Udondong su imong irika na uda nsue.” Inughe tunna ida, i kiffo Yesu ku, i nya ninghe.
"Friend," said Jesus, "carry out your intention." Then they came and laid their hands on Jesus and seized Him firmly.
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.
But one of those with Jesus drew his sword and struck the High Priest's servant, cutting 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.
"Put back your sword again," said Jesus, "for all who draw the sword shall perish by 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?
Or do you suppose I cannot entreat my Father and He would instantly send to my help more than twelve legions of angels?
54 Ani iba ti iyizari uliru Kutelle kulo, nworu unan so nani gbas?”
In that case how are the Scriptures to be fulfilled which declare that thus it 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.
Then said Jesus to the crowds, "Have you come out as if to fight with a robber, with swords and bludgeons to apprehend me? Day after day I have been sitting teaching in the Temple, and 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.
But all this has taken place in order that the writings of the Prophets may be fulfilled." At this point the disciples all left 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.
But the officers who had laid hold of Jesus led Him away to Caiaphas the High Priest, at whose house the Scribes and the 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.
And Peter kept following Him at a distance, till he came even to the court of the High Priest's palace, where he entered and sat down among the officers to see the issue.
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 High Priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking false testimony against Jesus in order to put 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 could find none, although many false witnesses came forward. At length there came two
61 I woro, “Unit ulele wor, meng wasa npuco kutii nlira Kutelle nkpila nke kunin nanya nayiri atat.”
who testified, "This man said, 'I am able to pull down the Sanctuary of God and three days afterwards to build a new one.'"
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 asked Him, "Have you no answer to make? What is it these men are saying in evidence against you?"
63 A Yesu yita nin kutike. Udya kilari nlira woroghe, “Ndifi kucukusu nin Kutellen lai, belle nari sa fere Kriste, Gono Kutelle.”
Jesus however remained silent. Again the High Priest addressed Him. "In the name of the ever-living God," he said, "I now put you on your oath. 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.”
"I am He," replied Jesus. "But I tell you that, later on, you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Omnipotence, and coming on the clouds of the sky."
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 and exclaimed, "Impious language! What further need have we of witnesses! See, you have now heard the impiety.
66 Iyaghari idin kpilizue?” Ikawaghe i woro, “Abatina ukul.”
What is your verdict?" "He deserves to die," they replied.
67 Itufuzunghe ataf nmoro, ikuru iruzoghe, ifoghe tutung nin nacara mine,
Then they spat in His face, and struck Him--some with the fist, some with the open hand--
68 I woro, “Sunari anabci fe Kristi. Ame ghari ulenge na a riofi?”
while they taunted Him, saying, "Christ, prove yourself a Prophet by telling us who it was 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 court of the palace, when one of the maidservants came over to him and said, "You too were with Jesus the Galilaean."
70 Ata amusu kun nbun mine vat, aworo, “Na meng yiru imon ilenge na udin liru kitene ba.”
He denied it before them all, saying, "I do not know what you mean."
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.”
Soon afterwards he went out and stood in the gateway, when another girl saw him, and said, addressing the people there, "This man was with Jesus the Nazarene."
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," he said.
73 Nin kubiri bat, alenge na iwa yissin kitene da ida woro Bitrus ku, “Kidegenere, fe wang umong nanya minere, bara lilemfe ndursofi.”
A short time afterwards the people standing there came and said to Peter, "Certainly you too are one of them, for your brogue shows it."
74 Atunna a cizina izogo nin nisiling, “Na in yiru unitte ba.” Na nin dandaunu ba, kukulok kolsuno.
Then with curses and oaths he declared, "I do not know the man." Immediately 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 recollected the words of Jesus, how He had said, "Before the cock crows you will three times disown me." And he went out and wept aloud, bitterly.
