Luke 23
1 The whole company of them rose up and brought him before Pilate.
Msambi wa vandu voha vevakonganiki pala, vakayima na kumpeleka Yesu palongolo ya Pilatu,
2 They began to accuse him, saying, "We found this man subverting our nation, forbidding paying taxes to Caesar, and saying that he himself is the Christ, a king."
Vakatumbula kumtakila vakajova, “Tamkolili mundu uyu avayaganisa vandu vitu na kavili akuvabesa vandu vakotoka kumpela kodi nkosi wa ku Loma na kujikemela ati mwene ndi Kilisitu Msangula Nkosi.”
3 Pilate asked him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" He answered him, "You say so."
Pilatu akamkota Yesu, “Veve ndi Nkosi wa Vayawudi?” Yesu akamyangula, “Veve wamwene ndi ujovili, veve Nkosi wa Vayawudi.”
4 Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, "I find no basis for a charge against this man."
Pilatu akavajovela vakulu va kuteta na msambi wa vandu, “Nakuchiwona chindu cheabudili mundu uyu.”
5 But they insisted, saying, "He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place."
Nambu vene vakajova chinganga, “Akuvakulukisa vandu kwa mawuliwu gaki mumulima woha wa Yudea, atumbwili ku Galilaya na hinu avi penapa.”
6 But when Pilate heard it, he asked if the man was a Galilean.
Pilatu peayuwini genago, akakota, “Wu, mundu uyu ndi mkolonjinji wa ku Galilaya?”
7 When he found out that he was in Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem during those days.
Peamanyili Yesu ihuma mumulima wewilongoswa na Helodi, ndi ampeliki kwa Helodi muni lukumbi lwenulo mewa avi ku Yelusalemu.
8 Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad, for he had wanted to see him for a long time, because he had heard about him. He hoped to see some miracle done by him.
Helodi akavya na luheku neju peamuweni Yesu. Muni amali kuyuwana mambu ga Yesu, ndi magono gamahele anogelayi kumlola Yesu cheikita gachinamtiti.
9 He questioned him with many words, but he gave no answers.
Helodi amkotili Yesu makotesi gamahele, nambu Yesu nakumyangula chindu.
10 The chief priests and the scribes stood, vehemently accusing him.
Vakulu va kuteta na vawula va malagizu ga Chapanga geampeli Musa vakayima kulongolo na kumtakila chinganganga.
11 Herod with his soldiers treated him with contempt and mocked him. Dressing him in luxurious clothing, they sent him back to Pilate.
Helodi pamonga na vamanjolinjoli vaki vakampeli soni Yesu na kumvevesa, kangi vakamuwalika ligwanda la unkosi na kumuwuyisa kwa Pilatu.
12 Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before that they were enemies with each other.
Magono gamumbele Helodi na Pilatu vatamanila cha umakoko, nambu kutumbula ligono lenilo vakavya vankozi.
13 Pilate called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
Pilatu akavakemele pamonga, Vamteta vakulu na vachilongosi va Chiyawudi na vandu,
14 and said to them, "You brought this man to me as one that subverts the people, and see, I have examined him before you, and found no basis for a charge against this man concerning those things of which you accuse him.
akavajovela, “Mumletili mundu uyu mwijova akuvayaganisa vandu. Hinu myuwanila! Nimali kulola muhalu uwu palongolo yinu kawaka chindu cheabudili mu mambu goha gemumtakili.
15 Neither has Herod, for he sent him back to us, and see, nothing worthy of death has been done by him.
Lepi nene ndu, nambu hati Helodi mewa, amuwuyisi kavili, ndava kawaka chindu cheabudili cheachiwene, kwa mundu uyu hati ahamuliwa lifwa.
16 I will therefore chastise him and release him."
Yati nilagazila atovewa michapilu ya miinga, na kumulekekesa.
17 (Now he had to release one prisoner to them at the feast.)
Mselebuko wa Pasaka, Pilatu yamganili kuvadindulila mundu mmonga kuhuma muchifungu.”
18 But they all shouted out together, saying, "Away with this man. Release to us Barabbas"
Nambu voha vakaywanga, “Mkoma mundu uyu! Utidindulilayi Balaba!”
19 (one who was thrown into prison for a certain revolt in the city, and for murder.)
Balaba asopiwi muchifungu ndava ya kukulukisa vandu muchitutu na muchitutu chenicho mundu mmonga akomiwi.
20 Then Pilate spoke to them again, wanting to release Jesus,
Pilatu aganili kumulekekesa Yesu, ndi akalongela nawu kavili vandu vevamtakili Yesu.
21 but they shouted, saying, "Crucify. Crucify him."
Nambu vene vakaywanga vakajova, “Mvambayi pamsalaba, mvambayi pamsalaba!”
22 He said to them the third time, "Why? What evil has this man done? I have found no capital crime in him. I will therefore chastise him and release him."
Pilatu akavajovela mala ya datu, “Chindu gani cheabudili mundu uyu? Nichiwona lepi chindu cheabudili hati ahamuliwa kukomiwa! Nene yati nilagiza atovewayi michapilu na kumlekekesa.”
23 But they were urgent with loud voices, asking that he might be crucified. And their voices, and those of the chief priests, prevailed.
Nambu vene vakayonjokesa kuywanga neju, Yesu yiganikwa avambiwayi pamsalaba, lwami zavi pamwishu zayuwaniki.
24 Pilate decreed that what they asked for should be done.
Hinu, Pilatu akahamula gahengeka.
25 He released him who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, for whom they asked, but he delivered Jesus up to their will.
Akamulekekesa kuhuma muchifungu yula mweakukingiwi ndava ya kuvya pamonga na vandu muchitutu na kukoma mundu mmonga, ndi akamgotola Yesu vamukita ngati chevigana.
26 When they led him away, they grabbed one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, and placed on him the cross, to carry it after Jesus.
Pevavi mukupeleka, vakakonganeka na mundu mmonga liina laki Simoni mkolonjinji wa Kulene, mweahumayi kumgunda waki, ndi vakamkamula na kumgegesa msalaba wula mumbele ya Yesu.
27 A large crowd of the people followed him, including women who also mourned and lamented him.
Vandu msambi kwa msambi, wamulandili, pagati yavi vavi vadala vevamuvembelayi Yesu ndava ya lipyanda.
28 But Jesus, turning to them, said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
Yesu akavang'anamukila, akajova, “Vamawu va Yelusalemu! Mkoto kunivembela nene, nambu mujivembela mwavene na vana vinu.
29 For look, the days are coming in which they will say, 'Blessed are the barren, the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.'
Muni chakaka walabwela lukumbi, yati mwijova, ‘Mbanga yavi vadala, vangali vana na vangavaleke, amala vanganyong'esa vana!’
30 Then they will begin to say to the mountains, 'Fall on us,' and to the hills, 'Cover us.'
Lukumbi lwenulo, yati vandu vakuvijovela vidunda, mutigwilila na tudunda, ‘Mutigubika!’
31 For if they do these things in the green tree, what will be done in the dry?"
Ngati vandu vakunikitila nene chenicho mwenivili ngati mkongo uvisi, yati yivya wuli kwa nyenye mwemuvi ngati mkongo uyumu?”
32 There were also others, two criminals, led with him to be put to death.
Mewa vavatoli vandu vangi vavili vanyagaji vavapeliki, kukomiwa pamonga na Yesu.
33 When they came to the place that is called The Skull, they crucified him there with the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left.
Pavahikili pandu pepikemelawa, “Libangu la Mutu,” Ndi vakamvamba Yesu pamsalaba pamonga na vanyagaji vavili vala mmonga upandi waki wa kulyela na yungi upandi wa kumangeya.
34 And Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing." Dividing his garments among them, they cast lots.
Yesu akajova, “Dadi, valekekesa, muni nakumanya chevikita.” Kangi, vakagavana nyula zaki kwa kuhagula kwa gudugudu.
35 The people stood watching. The rulers also scoffed at him, saying, "He saved others. Let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, his Chosen One."
Vandu vayimili kulolokesa kuni vakulu va Vayawudi chevamvevisi vijova, “Avasangwili vangi, hinu ajisangula mwene ngati mwene ndi Kilisitu mwehaguliwi na Chapanga!”
36 The soldiers also mocked him, coming to him and offering him vinegar,
Manjolinjoli mewa vamvevisi, vamhambili Yesu na kumpela divayi yivavanu,
37 and saying, "If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself."
Vakumjovela, “Ngati chakaka veve ndi Nkosi wa Vayawudi, ujisangula wamwene!”
38 An inscription was also written above him: "THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS."
Panani ya msalaba vavikili chibawu chechayandikiwi, “Mwenuyu ndi Nkosi wa Vayawudi.”
39 One of the criminals who hung there insulted him, saying, "Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us."
Mmonga wa vanyagaji vala vevavambiwi pamsalaba akamliga Yesu, akajova “Wu, lepi chakaka kuvya veve ndi Kilisitu Msangula? Jisangula wamwene, utisangula na tete!”
40 But the other answered, and rebuking him said, "Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?
Nambu mnyagaji yungi yula, akamuywangila muyaki akamjovela, “Veve ukumuyogopa lepi Chapanga hati padebe? Veve uhamuliwi mewawa.
41 And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward for our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong."
Veve na nene yikutigana tihamuliwa ndava ya kunyaga kwitu. Nambu mundu uyu kawaka hati chimonga cheabudili.”
42 And he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your Kingdom."
Kangi akamjovela Yesu, “Veve Yesu! Ukoto kunikosiwa peuyingila Munkosi waku!”
43 And he said to him, "Assuredly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise."
Yesu akamyangula, “Chakaka nikujovela lelu yati tivya na nene kupaladiso.”
44 And it was now about noon, and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon,
Kutumbula saa sita muhi, chitita chikagubika mulima woha mbaka saa tisa,
45 for the sun's light failed. And the veil of the temple was torn in two.
na lilanga likakotoka kulangasa na lipazia lelakovikwi mu Nyumba ya Chapanga likapapuka vipandi vivili.
46 And Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit." Having said this, he breathed his last.
Yesu akavemba kwa lwami luvaha, “Dadi! Mumawoko gaku nigotola mpungu wangu!” Akadumuka mpungu.
47 When the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, "Certainly this was a righteous man."
Mkulu wa manjolinjoli yula peagawene gegahumalili, akamulumba Chapanga akajova, “Chakaka mundu uyu avi mbwina!”
48 All the crowds that came together to see this, when they saw the things that were done, returned home beating their breasts.
Na vandu voha vevakonganiki penapo ndava ya lijambu lenilo pavagawene gegahumalili gala, vakawuya kunyumba zavi, kuni vakujitova nganga cha ngolongondi.
49 All his acquaintances, and the women who followed with him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching these things.
Vankozi vaki voha pamonga na vadala vealongosini nawu kuhuma ku Galilaya, vayimili cha kutali kulola mambu genago.
50 And look, a man named Joseph, who was a member of the council, a good and righteous man
Kwavi na mundu mmonga liina laki Yosefu, avi mmonga wa vachilongosi wa libanji likulu la Vayawudi. Avi mundu mbwina na kukita geigana Chapanga,
51 (he had not consented to their counsel and deed), from Arimathea, a city of the Judeans, who was also waiting for the Kingdom of God:
mwene nakuyidakilana gevapangili na kugakita vachilongosi vayaki va libanji likulu la Vayawudi. Yosefu avi mkolonjinji wa Alimatei, ndi avi mukulindila kubwela kwa Unkosi wa Chapanga.
52 this man went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus.
Mundu mwenuyo akahamba kwa Pilatu kumuyupa atola higa ya Yesu.
53 He took it down, and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and placed him in a tomb that was cut in stone, where no one had ever been placed.
Akayihulusa higa kuhuma pamsalaba, akayitindisila nyula ya msopi na kuvika mulitinda lelahongoliwi pamhana ya litalau, lavi langavikiwa mundu.
54 It was the day of the Preparation, and the Sabbath was drawing near.
Lavi ligono la kutendelekeha, Ligono la Kupumulila ndi latumbukana.
55 The women, who had come with him out of Galilee, followed after, and saw the tomb, and how his body was placed.
Vadala vevalongosini na Yesu kuhuma ku Galilaya vakamulanda Yosefu na kuliwona litinda na higa ya Yesu cheuvikiwi.
56 They returned, and prepared spices and ointments. On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
Kangi vakawuya kunyumba, vakatendelekela mahuta geginungalila bwina ga kunyala higa ya Yesu. Ligono la Kupumulila vapumulili ngati malagizu ga Chapanga geampeli Musa chegilagiza.
