Mark 14
1 It was now two days before the Passover and the feast of Unleavened Bread, and the High Priests and Scribes were bent on finding how to seize Him by stratagem and put Him to death.
Na rĩrĩ, gwatigaire o mĩthenya ĩĩrĩ nĩguo kũgĩe na Gĩathĩ kĩa Bathaka na kĩa Mĩgate ĩtarĩ Mĩĩkĩre Ndawa ya Kũimbia, nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na arutani a watho nĩmacaragia ũrĩa mangĩnyiitithia Jesũ na njĩra ya wara nĩguo mamũũrage.
2 But they said, "Not on the Festival-day, for fear there should be a riot among the people."
Makiuga atĩrĩ, “No tũtingĩmũnyiita hĩndĩ ya Gĩathĩ, tondũ andũ mahota kũruta haaro.”
3 Now when He was at Bethany, in the house of Simon the Leper, while He was at table, there came a woman with a jar of pure, sweet-scented ointment very costly: she broke the jar and poured the ointment over His head.
Na rĩrĩa arĩ itũũra-inĩ rĩa Bethania kwa mũndũ wetagwo Simoni ũrĩa warĩ na mangũ, aikarĩte metha-inĩ akĩrĩa irio-rĩ, nĩhookire mũndũ-wa-nja arĩ na cuba ya maguta ma goro mũno na manungi wega. Akĩũraga cuba ĩyo na akĩmũitĩrĩria maguta macio mũtwe.
4 But there were some who said indignantly among themselves, "Why has the ointment been thus wasted?
Andũ amwe arĩa maarĩ kuo makĩigua ũũru, makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Maguta maya maitangwo ũguo nĩkĩ?
5 For that ointment might have been sold for fifteen pounds or more, and the money have been given to the poor." And they were exceedingly angry with her.
Maguta macio nĩmangĩendio mbeeca ikĩrĩte mũcara wa mũndũ wa mwaka mũgima nacio mbeeca icio iheo athĩĩni.” Magĩkũũma mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio marĩ na ũũru.
6 But Jesus said, "Leave her alone: why are you troubling her? She has done a most gracious act towards me.
Nowe Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Tiganai nake, mũramũtanga nĩkĩ? Nĩanjĩka ũndũ mwega mũno.
7 For you always have the poor among you, and whenever you choose you can do acts of kindness to them; but me you have not always.
Athĩĩni marĩkoragwo na inyuĩ hĩndĩ ciothe na no mũmateithie hĩndĩ ĩrĩa yothe mũngĩenda. No niĩ mũtirĩkoragwo na niĩ hĩndĩ ciothe.
8 What she could she did: she has perfumed my body in preparation for my burial.
Anjĩka o ũrĩa angĩahota. Aitĩrĩria mwĩrĩ wakwa maguta o mbere nĩ ũndũ wa kũhaarĩria gũthikwo gwakwa.
9 And I solemnly tell you that wherever in the whole world the Good News shall be proclaimed, this which she has done shall also be told in remembrance of her."
Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, kũrĩa guothe Ũhoro-ũyũ-Mwega ũkaahunjagio thĩinĩ wa thĩ, ũguo eka nĩũkeeragwo andũ nĩgeetha aririkanagwo.”
10 But Judas Iscariot, already mentioned as one of the Twelve, went to the High Priests to betray Jesus to them.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Judasi Mũisikariota, ũmwe wa arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ, agĩthiĩ kũrĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene agakunyanĩre Jesũ kũrĩ o.
11 They gladly listened to his proposal, and promised to give him a sum of money. So he looked out for an opportunity to betray Him.
Nao magĩkena mũno maigua ũguo na makĩmwĩra nĩmekũmũhe mbeeca. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Judasi agĩcaria mweke wa kũmũneana kũrĩ o.
12 On the first day of the feast of Unleavened Bread--the day for killing the Passover lamb--His disciples asked Him, "Where shall we go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?"
Mũthenya wa mbere wa Gĩathĩ kĩa Mĩgate ĩtarĩ Mĩĩkĩre Ndawa ya Kũimbia, o ũrĩa wathĩnjagwo gatũrũme ka Bathaka-rĩ, arutwo a Jesũ makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũkwenda tũthiĩ kũ tũkahaarĩrie nĩguo ũkarĩĩre irio cia Bathaka kuo?”
13 So He sent two of His disciples with instructions, saying, "Go into the city, and you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water: follow him,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩtũma arutwo ake eerĩ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi mũtoonye itũũra, na nĩ mũgũcemania na mũndũ ũkuuĩte ndigithũ ya maaĩ. Mũrũmĩrĩrei.
14 and whatever house he enters, tell the master of the house, 'The Rabbi asks, Where is my room where I can eat the Passover with my disciples?'
Kũrĩa egũtoonya mwĩre mwene nyũmba ĩyo atĩrĩ, ‘Mũrutani arooria atĩrĩ, nyũmba yakwa ya ageni ĩrĩ ha, harĩa ingĩrĩĩra irio cia Bathaka na arutwo akwa?’
15 Then he will himself show you a large room upstairs, ready furnished: there make preparation for us."
Nake nĩekũmuonia nyũmba nene ya igũrũ ĩkĩrĩtwo indo na ĩgathondekwo wega. Haarĩriai irio cia Bathaka iitũ kuo.”
16 So the disciples went out and came to the city, and found everything just as He had told them; and they got the Passover ready.
Arutwo acio makiumagara, magĩtoonya itũũra, magĩkora maũndũ mahaana o ta ũrĩa Jesũ aamerĩte. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩhaarĩria irio cia Bathaka.
17 When it was evening, He came with the Twelve.
Na gwakinya hwaĩ-inĩ, Jesũ agĩkinya kuo marĩ na arutwo arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ.
18 And while they were at table Jesus said, "I solemnly tell you that one of you will betray me--one who is eating with me."
Maikarĩte metha-inĩ makĩrĩa akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ũmwe wanyu nĩekũngunyanĩra, ũmwe wa arĩa mararĩĩanĩra na niĩ.”
19 They were filled with sorrow, and began asking Him, one by one, "Not I, is it?"
Makĩnyiitwo nĩ kĩeha mũno, na o ũmwe akamũũria atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ hihi nĩ niĩ?”
20 "It is one of the Twelve," He replied; "he who is dipping his fingers in the dish with me.
Jesũ akĩmacookeria akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũmwe wanyu inyuĩ ikũmi na eerĩ, ũrĩa ũgũtobokanĩria mũgate mbakũri-inĩ hamwe na niĩ.
21 For the Son of Man is going His way as it is written about Him; but alas for the man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It had been a happy thing for that man, had he never been born."
Mũrũ wa Mũndũ egũthiĩ o ta ũrĩa ũhoro wake wandĩkĩtwo. No mũndũ ũrĩa ũgaakunyanĩra Mũrũ wa Mũndũ kaĩ arĩ na haaro-ĩ! Nĩ kaba mũndũ ũcio atangĩaciarirwo.”
22 Also during the meal He took a Passover biscuit, blessed it, and broke it. He then gave it to them, saying, "Take this, it is my body."
Ningĩ o makĩrĩĩaga-rĩ, Jesũ akĩoya mũgate, agĩcookia ngaatho, agĩcooka akĩwenyũranga, akĩhe arutwo ake, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Oyai; ũyũ nĩguo mwĩrĩ wakwa.”
23 Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and handed it to them, and they all of them drank from it.
Agĩcooka akĩoya gĩkombe, agĩcookia ngaatho akĩmanengera, nao othe magĩkĩnyuĩra.
24 "This is my blood," He said, "which is to be poured out on behalf of many--the blood which makes the Covenant sure.
Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ĩno nĩyo thakame yakwa ya kĩrĩkanĩro, ĩrĩa ĩitĩtwo nĩ ũndũ wa andũ aingĩ.
25 I solemnly tell you that never again will I taste the produce of the vine till I shall drink the new wine in the Kingdom of God."
Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ndikũnyua rĩngĩ ndibei ya maciaro ma mũthabibũ, nginya mũthenya ũrĩa ngaamĩnyua ĩrĩ njerũ ũthamaki-inĩ wa Ngai.”
26 After singing a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
Na maarĩkia kũina rwĩmbo, makiumagara magĩthiĩ kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Mĩtamaiyũ.
27 Then said Jesus to them, "All of you are about to stumble and fall, for it is written, 'I will strike down the Shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered in all directions.'
Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ inyuothe nĩmũrĩndirika, nĩgũkorwo nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “‘Nĩngaringa mũrĩithi, nacio ngʼondu ihurunjũke.’
28 But after I have risen to life again I will go before you into Galilee."
No ndaariũka, nĩngamũtongoria gũthiĩ Galili.”
29 "All may stumble and fall," said Peter, "yet I never will."
Petero akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “O na othe mangĩgũtirika, niĩ ndingĩgũtirika.”
30 "I solemnly tell you," replied Jesus, "that to-day--this night--before the cock crows twice, you yourself will three times disown me."
Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ngũkwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ũmũthĩ, o ũtukũ ũyũ, ngũkũ ĩtanakũga keerĩ, nĩũrĩngaana maita matatũ.”
31 "Even if I must die with you," declared Peter again and again, "I will never disown you." In like manner protested also all the disciples.
No Petero akĩaria ahinyĩrĩirie, akiuga atĩrĩ, “O na angĩkorwo ndĩrĩkuanĩra nawe, niĩ ndingĩgũkaana!” O na acio angĩ othe makiuga o ũguo.
32 So they came to a place called Gethsemane. There He said to His disciples, "Sit down here till I have prayed."
Nao magĩkinya handũ heetagwo Gethisemane, nake Jesũ akĩĩra arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Ikarai haha thiĩ ngahooe.”
33 Then He took with Him Peter and James and John, and began to be full of terror and distress,
Akĩoya Petero na Jakubu na Johana agĩthiĩ nao, na o hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩnyiitwo nĩ kĩeha kĩnene na agĩthĩĩnĩka mũno.
34 and He said to them, "My heart is oppressed with anguish to the very point of death: wait here and keep awake."
Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ngoro yakwa nĩĩraigua kĩeha mũno o ta ingĩkua, ikarai haha na mwĩhũge.”
35 Going forward a short distance He threw Himself upon His face and prayed repeatedly that, if it was possible, He might be spared that time of agony;
Na aathiathia hanini, akĩĩgũithia thĩ, akĩhooya atĩ korwo kwahoteka, ihinda rĩu rĩmweherere.
36 and He said, "Abba! my Father! all things are possible for Thee: take this cup of suffering away from me: and yet not what I desire, but what Thou desirest."
Akiuga atĩrĩ, “Abba, Baba, maũndũ mothe nĩmahotekaga nĩwe. Njehereria gĩkombe gĩkĩ. No ti ũrĩa ngwenda niĩ, no nĩ ũrĩa wee ũkwenda.”
37 Then He came and found them asleep, and He said to Peter, "Simon, are you asleep? Had you not strength to keep awake a single hour?
Ningĩ agĩcooka harĩ arutwo ake akĩmakora makomete. Akĩũria Petero atĩrĩ, “Simoni, kaĩ ũkomete? Ndũngĩhota gũikara ithaa rĩmwe wĩiguĩte?
38 Be wakeful, all of you, and keep on praying, that you may not come into temptation: the spirit is right willing, but the body is frail."
Mwĩhũgagei na mũhooyage nĩgeetha mũtikagwe magerio-inĩ. Ngoro nĩyenda, no mwĩrĩ ndũrĩ na hinya.”
39 He again went away and prayed, using the very same words.
O rĩngĩ agĩthiĩ akĩhooya o ũguo.
40 When He returned He again found them asleep, for they were very tired; and they knew not how to answer Him.
Na acooka rĩngĩ harĩo, agĩkora makomete tondũ nĩmahĩtĩtwo nĩ toro. Nao makĩrigwo nĩ ũrĩa mangĩmwĩra.
41 A third time He came, and then He said, "Sleep on and rest. Enough! the hour has come. Even now they are betraying the Son of Man into the hands of sinful men.
Ningĩ agĩũka ihinda rĩa gatatũ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “O na rĩu mũrĩ o toro, o mũhurũkĩte? Kinyiai hau! Ithaa nĩrĩakinya. Atĩrĩrĩ, Mũrũ wa Mũndũ nĩakunyanĩirwo akaneanwo moko-inĩ ma andũ ehia.
42 Rouse yourselves, let us be going: my betrayer is close at hand."
Ũkĩrai, tũthiĩ! Ũrĩa ũkũngunyanĩra nĩarooka.”
43 Immediately, while He was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, came and with him a crowd of men armed with swords and cudgels, sent by the High Priests and Scribes and Elders.
O akĩaragia-rĩ, Judasi, ũmwe wa arutwo arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ, agĩkinya. Ookire arĩ na gĩkundi kĩnene kĩa andũ marĩ na hiũ cia njora na njũgũma, matũmĩtwo nĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene, na arutani a watho na athuuri.
44 Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them. "The one I kiss," he said, "is the man: lay hold of him, and take him safely away."
Judasi ũcio wamũkunyanĩire nĩamaheete kĩmenyithia akameera atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩa ndĩmumunya nĩwe; mũmũnyiite na mũmũtware arangĩirwo.”
45 So he came, and going straight to Jesus he said, "Rabbi!" and kissed Him with seeming affection;
Judasi o rĩmwe agĩthiĩ harĩ Jesũ, akĩmwĩta atĩrĩ, “Rabii!” na akĩmũmumunya.
46 whereupon they laid hands on Him and held Him firmly.
Nao andũ acio makĩguthũkĩra Jesũ makĩmũnyiita.
47 But one of those who stood by drew his sword and struck a blow at the High Priest's servant, cutting off his ear.
Na ũmwe wa arĩa maarũngiĩ hakuhĩ agĩcomora rũhiũ rwake rwa njora agĩtinia gũtũ kwa ndungata ya mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene.
48 "Have you come out," said Jesus, "with swords and cudgels to arrest me, as if you had to fight with a robber?
Nake Jesũ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ndĩ mũtongoria wa akararia a watho atĩ nĩkĩo muoka kũũnyiita mũrĩ na hiũ cia njora na njũgũma?
49 Day after day I used to be among you in the Temple teaching, and you never seized me. But this is happening in order that the Scriptures may be fulfilled.'
Ndĩratũũraga na inyuĩ hekarũ-inĩ ngĩrutanaga mũthenya o mũthenya na mũtingĩĩnyiita. No rĩrĩ, Maandĩko no nginya mahiinge.”
50 Then His friends all forsook Him and fled.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo arutwo ake othe makĩmũtiganĩria, makĩũra.
51 One youth indeed did follow Him, wearing only a linen cloth round his bare body. Of him they laid hold,
Na mwanake ũmwe ũteehumbĩte kĩndũ tiga taama wa gatani akĩrũmĩrĩra Jesũ. Na rĩrĩa maamũnyiitire,
52 but he left the linen cloth in their hands and fled without it.
agĩtiga taama wake nao, akĩũra e njaga.
53 So they led Jesus away to the High Priest, and with him there assembled all the High Priests, Elders, and Scribes.
Nao andũ acio magĩtwara Jesũ kũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene othe, na athuuri na arutani a watho makĩgomana hamwe.
54 Peter followed Jesus at a distance, as far as the outer court of the High Priest's palace. But there he remained sitting among the officers, and warming himself by the fire.
Petero akĩmũrũmĩrĩra arĩ haraaya o nginya agĩkinya nja ya mũciĩ wa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio mũnene. Agĩikarania na thigari kũu agĩota mwaki.
55 Meanwhile the High Priests and the entire Sanhedrin were endeavouring to get evidence against Jesus in order to put Him to death, but could find none;
Na rĩrĩ, athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene, o na Kĩama kĩu gĩothe, magĩcaria ũira wa kũũragithia Jesũ, no mationire.
56 for though many gave false testimony against Him, their statements did not tally.
Na andũ aingĩ nĩmarutire ũira wa maheeni, no ũira wao ũkĩaga kũiguana.
57 Then some came forward as witnesses and falsely declared,
Gũgĩcooka gũkĩrũgama andũ amwe, nao makĩruta ũira wa maheeni makiuga atĩrĩ,
58 "We have heard him say, 'I will pull down this Sanctuary built by human hands, and three days afterwards I will erect another built without hands.'"
“Nĩtwaiguire akiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩngatharia hekarũ ĩno yakĩtwo nĩ andũ, na njake ĩngĩ ĩtakĩtwo nĩ mũndũ na ihinda rĩa mĩthenya ĩtatũ.’”
59 But not even in this shape was their testimony consistent.
No o na moiga ũguo, ũira wao ũkĩaga kũiguana.
60 At last the High Priest stood up, and advancing into the midst of them all, asked Jesus, "Have you no answer to make? What is the meaning of all this that these witnesses allege against you?"
Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene akĩrũgama gatagatĩ kao, akĩũria Jesũ atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ wee ũtarĩ na ũndũ ũngĩcookia? Nĩ ũhoro ũrĩkũ ũyũ ũrathitangwo naguo?”
61 But He remained silent, and gave no reply. A second time the High Priest questioned Him. "Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?" he said.
No Jesũ agĩkira ki, na ndacookie ũndũ. O rĩngĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio mũnene akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe Kristũ, Mũrũ wa Ũrĩa Mũrathime?”
62 "I am," replied Jesus, "and you and others will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the divine Power, and coming amid the clouds of the sky."
Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ nĩ niĩ. Na nĩmũkona Mũrũ wa Mũndũ aikarĩte guoko-inĩ kwa ũrĩo kwa Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Hinya, na agĩũka arĩ igũrũ rĩa matu.”
63 Rending his garments the High Priest exclaimed, "What need have we of witnesses after that?
Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũcio mũnene agĩtembũranga nguo ciake. Akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Tũgũkĩbatario nĩ aira angĩ a kĩ?
64 You all heard his impious words. What is your judgement?" Then with one voice they condemned Him as deserving of death.
Nĩmweiguĩra akĩruma Ngai. Mũgwĩciiria atĩa?” Nao othe makĩmũtuĩra atĩ aagĩrĩirwo nĩ kũũragwo.
65 Thereupon some began to spit on Him, and to blindfold Him, while striking Him with their fists and crying, "Prove that you are a prophet." The officers too struck Him with open hands as they took Him in charge.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo amwe makĩambĩrĩria kũmũtuĩra mata, na makĩmũhumbĩra ũthiũ, makĩmũringa na ngundi makĩmwĩraga atĩrĩ, “Ta kĩrathe ũhoro.” Nacio thigari ikĩmuoya, ikĩmũhũũra.
66 Now while Peter was below in the quadrangle, one of the High Priest's maidservants came,
Na hĩndĩ ĩyo Petero aikarĩte o hau nja-rĩ, ũmwe wa ndungata cia airĩtu cia mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene akĩgerera ho.
67 and seeing Peter warming himself she looked at him and said, "You also were with Jesus, the Nazarene."
Rĩrĩa oonire Petero agĩota mwaki, akĩmũrora wega. “Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘O nawe uuma hamwe na Jesũ ũcio wa Nazarethi’.”
68 But he denied it, and said, "I don't know--I don't understand--What do you mean?" And then he went out into the outer court. Just then a cock crowed.
Nowe Petero agĩkaana ũhoro ũcio, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndiũĩ ũhoro ũcio, o na ndiramenya nĩ atĩa ũroiga,” na akiumagara agĩthiĩ itoonyero-inĩ.
69 Again the maidservant saw him, and again began to say to the people standing by, "He is one of them."
Na rĩrĩa ndungata ĩyo ya mũirĩtu yamuonire ho, o rĩngĩ ĩkĩĩra arĩa maarũngiĩ ho atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ nĩ ũmwe wao.”
70 A second time he repeatedly denied it. Soon afterwards the bystanders again accused Peter, saying, "You are surely one of them, for you too are a Galilaean."
No Petero agĩkaana ũhoro ũcio rĩngĩ. Thuutha wa kahinda kanini, arĩa maarũgamĩte hakuhĩ makĩĩra Petero atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ ũrĩ ũmwe wao, nĩ ũndũ wĩ Mũgalili.”
71 But he broke out into curses and oaths, declaring, "I know nothing of the man you are talking about."
Nake akĩambĩrĩria kwĩhĩta akiugaga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndiũĩ mũndũ ũyũ mũraaria ũhoro wake.”
72 No sooner had he spoken than a cock crowed for the second time, and Peter recollected the words of Jesus, "Before the cock crows twice, you will three times disown me." And as he thought of it, he wept aloud.
O hĩndĩ ĩyo ngũkũ ĩgĩkũga hĩndĩ ya keerĩ. Nake Petero akĩririkana ũhoro ũrĩa Jesũ aamwĩrĩte atĩrĩ, “Ngũkũ ĩtanakũga keerĩ nĩũrĩngaana maita matatũ.” Nake akĩambĩrĩria kũrĩra.
