< Luke 23 >

1 The whole company of them rose up and brought him before Pilate.
Mkutano bhoha bhukajhema bhakampeleka Yesu mbele jha Pilato.
2 They began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man perverting the nation, forbidding paying taxes to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ, a king.”
Bhakajhanda kun'shutumu, bhakajobha, “Tumbwene munu ojho ipotosya taifa lya tete, kwa kubesya tusihomesi kodi kwa Kaisari, ni kujobha kujha muene ndo Kristu, Mfalme.”
3 Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered him, “So you say.”
Pilato akan'kota, akajobha, “Je bhebhe ndo Mfalme ghwa bhayahudi?” Ni Yesu akan'jibu akajobha, “Bhebhe nijobha naha”.
4 Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”
Pilato akan'jobhela kuhani mbaha ni makutano, “Nikalibhona lepi likosa kwa munu ojho”.
5 But they insisted, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place.”
Lakini bhene bhasisitizi, bhakajobha, “Abhachocheleghe bhanu, ifundisya mu uyahudi bhuoha, kubhwanzila Galilaya ni henu ajhele apa.”
6 But when Pilate heard Galilee mentioned, he asked if the man was a Galilean.
Pilato bho ap'eliki agha, akakotelesya kama munu ojho ghwa 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.
Bho amanyili kujha ajhele chini jha utawala bhwa Herode, ampeliki Yesu kwa Herode, ambajhe ni muene ajhele Yerusalemu kwa magono aghu.
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 many things about him. He hoped to see some miracle done by him.
Herode bho ambwene Yesu, ahobhwiki kweli kwa ndabha alondeghe kumbona kwa magono ghamehele. Ap'eliki habari sya muene na anogheleghe ligono limonga kulola miujiza jhibhombeka ni muene.
9 He questioned him with many words, but he gave no answers.
Herode an'kotili Yesu kwa malobhi ghamehele lakini Yesu an'jibili lepi kyokyoha.
10 The chief priests and the scribes stood, vehemently accusing him.
Makuhani bhabhaha pamonga ni bhaandishi bhajhemili kwa ukali bhikan'takila.
11 Herod with his soldiers humiliated him and mocked him. Dressing him in luxurious clothing, they sent him back to Pilate.
Herode pamonga ni maaskari bha muene, bhandighili ni kumdhihaki, kwa kumfwatika maguanda manofu, kisha akan'kerebhusya Yesu kwa Pilato.
12 Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before that they were enemies with each other.
Herode ni Pilato bhakajha marafiki kujhandi ligono e'lu, (kabla jha apu bhajhele maadui).
13 Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,
Pilato akabhakuta pamonga makuhani bhabhaha ni bhatawala ni umati bhwa bhanu,
14 and said to them, “You brought this man to me as one that perverts the people, and behold, having examined him before you, I found no basis for a charge against this man concerning those things of which you accuse him.
Akabhajobhela, “Mundetili munu ojho kama munu jha akabhalongosya bhanu kubhombi manofulepi, na langayi, baada jha kujha nin'hojili mbele jha muenga, nikabhwene lepi likosa kwa munu ojho kuhusu mambo ghoha muenga gha mukan'takila.
15 Neither has Herod, for I sent you to him, and see, nothing worthy of death has been done by him.
Lepi, wala Herode, kwa ndabha Herode an'kerebhuisi kwa tete, na langayi kijhelepi kyokyoha kyaakibhombili kyakilondeka adhabu jha kufwa.
16 I will therefore chastise him and release him.”
Kwa hiyo nibeta kun'tobha ni kundekesela.
17 Now he had to release one prisoner to them at the feast.
(Henu, Pilato iwajibika kundekesela mfungwa mmonga kwa bhayahudi wakati bhwa sikukuu).
18 But they all cried out together, saying, “Away with this man! Release to us Barabbas!”—
Lakini bhoha bhapigili kelele pamonga, bhakajobha, “Umbosyajhi ojhu, ni tubhopolelejhi Baraba!”
19 one who was thrown into prison for a certain revolt in the city, and for murder.
Baraba ajhele munu jha abhekibhu mu ligereza kwa ndabha jha uasi fulani mu jiji ni kukoma.
20 Then Pilate spoke to them again, wanting to release Jesus,
Pilato akabhajobhela kabhele, inoghela kundekesela Yesu.
21 but they shouted, saying, “Crucify! Crucify him!”
Lakini bhene bhapigili kelele, bhakajobha, “N'sulubisiajhi, N'sulubisiajhi.”
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.”
Akabhakota kwa mara jha tatu, “kwandajha kiki, munu ojho akhetili maovu ghaloki? nikabhilepi likosa lya lilondeka adhabu jha kifo kwa muene. Henu panibeta kumala kun'tobha nikandekesela.”
23 But they were urgent with loud voices, asking that he might be crucified. Their voices and the voices of the chief priests prevailed.
Lakini bhakasisitiza kwa sauti jha panani, bhakajha bhilonda asulubisibhwajhi. Ni sauti sya bhene syan'shawishi Pilato.
24 Pilate decreed that what they asked for should be done.
Hivyo Pilato akaamula kubhapela matakwa gha bhene.
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.
Akandekesela jhola jha bhandondeghe ambajhe afungibhu kwa kusababisya ghasia ni kukoma. Lakini akambosya Yesu kwa matakwa gha bhene.
26 When they led him away, they grabbed one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, and laid the cross on him to carry it after Jesus.
Bho bhakampeleka, bhan'kamuili munu mmonga jhaakutibhweghe Simoni wa Ukirene, akajha ihomela mu nchi, bhakan'tweka n'salaba ili ap'endayi, kun'kesya Yesu.
27 A great multitude of the people followed him, including women who also mourned and lamented him.
Umati mbaha bhwa bhanu, ni bhadala ambabho bhahuzuniki ni kuombolesya kwa ndabha jha muene bhakajha bhakan'kesya.
28 But Jesus, turning to them, said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, don’t weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
Lakini akabhageukila, Yesu akabhajobhela, “Bhahenja bha Yerusalemu, musinileleli nene, bali mukilelelajhi mwebhene kwa ndabha jha bhanabhinu.
29 For behold, the days are coming in which they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren, the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.’
Langayi, magono ghihida bhibeta kujobha, “Bhabarikibhu bhabhajhele tasa ni malemeghaghabeli kuhogola, ni mabhele ambagho ghajhong'isi lepi.
30 Then they will begin to tell the mountains, ‘Fall on us!’ and tell the hills, ‘Cover us.’
Ndipo pabhibeta kuijobhela fidonda, 'Mutubinilayi,' ni filima, 'mutufunikayi.'
31 For if they do these things in the green tree, what will be done in the dry?”
Mana kama bhabhabhombili mambo agha ikajhiajhi libehe libhesi, ibeta kujha bhuli KU lijhomu?”
32 There were also others, two criminals, led with him to be put to death.
bhagosi bhangi, bhabhele, bhapelekibhu pamonga ni muene ili bhakomibhwayi.
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.
Bhobhafikili mahali papikutibhwa fuvu lya mutu, ndipo bhan'sulubisi pamonga ni bhala bhahalifu, mmonga upande bhwa kulia ni jhongi bhwa kushoto.
34 Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.” Dividing his garments among them, they cast lots.
Yesu ajobhili, “Dadi ubhasamehajhi, kwandabha bhamanyilepi lya bhikheta. “Na bhene bhakapiga kura, kugabha mavazi gha bhene.
35 The people stood watching. The rulers with them also scoffed at him, saying, “He saved others. Let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, his chosen one!”
Bhanu bhajhele bhajhemili bhilanga khoni bhatawala bhidhihaki, bhijobha, “Abhaokuili bhangi. Henu akiokolayi muene, kama mwene ndo Kristu ghwa K'yara, mteule”.
36 The soldiers also mocked him, coming to him and offering him vinegar,
Askari kabhele bhen'dharauli, bhan'hegelili muene ni kumpela
37 and saying, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!”
siki, Bhakajobha, “Kama bhebhe mfalme ghwa bhajhahudi ukiokolayi ghwejhobhi”
38 An inscription was also written over him in letters of Greek, Latin, and Hebrew: “THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
Kwajhe kabhele ni alama panani pa muene jha jhalembibhu “OJHO NDO MFALME GHWA BHAYAHUDI.”
39 One of the criminals who was hanged insulted him, saying, “If you are the Christ, save yourself and us!”
Mmonga ghwa bhahalifu jhaasulubibhu andighili ajobhili, “Bhebhe ghwa Kristu lepi? ukiokolayi ghwe muene ni tete”
40 But the other answered, and rebuking him said, “Don’t you even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?
Lakini jhongi jhola ajibili, akanjwangila ni kujobha, “Je bhebhe ukantila lepi K'yara, nabhi ujhe mu hukumu jhejhuejhu?
41 And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward for our deeds, but this man has done nothing wrong.”
Tete tujhele hapa kwa haki kwa ndabha tete twipokela khela kya twilondeka kwa matendo gha jhotu. Lakini munu ojho abhombilepi kyokyoha kibaya.”
42 He said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when you come into your Kingdom.”
Na ejhonesi, Yesu, unikhombokayi pawibeta kijhingila mu ufalme bhwa jhobhi.”
43 Jesus said to him, “Assuredly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”
Yesu akabhajobhela, “Aminiajhi nikujobhela, lelu jhejhejhe wibetakujha pamonga ni nene paradiso.”
44 It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour.
Apo jhajhele karibu saa sita, ngisi jhahidili panani pa nchi jhioha hadi saa tisa,
45 The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two.
Mwanga ghwa lijobha bhasimili, kisha lipazia lya hekalu lyakachuiki pagati kujhandi kunani.
46 Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” Having said this, he breathed his last.
Alelili kwa sauti mbaha, Yesu akajobha, “Dadi mu mabhoko gha jhobhi nikajhibheka roho jha nene,” baada jha kujobha agha, afuili.
47 When the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, “Certainly this was a righteous man.”
Wakati Akida abhwene ghaghabhombiki an'tukuisi K'yara akajobha, “Hakika ojho ajhele munu mwenye haki.”
48 All the multitudes that came together to see this, when they saw the things that were done, returned home beating their chests.
Wakati umati bhwa bhanu bhwa uhidili pamonga kushuhudila bho bhabhwene mambo ghaghabhombiki, bhakerebhuki khoni bhitobha fifua fya bhene.
49 All his acquaintances and the women who followed with him from Galilee stood at a distance, watching these things.
Lakini marafiki zake, ni bhadala bhabhan'kesili kuhoma Galilaya, bhajhemili kwa patali bhilanga aghu mambo.
50 Behold, there was a man named Joseph, who was a member of the council, a good and righteous man
Langayi, pajhele ni munu jha akutibhweghe Yusufu, ambajhe ni mmonga ghwa baraza, munu n'nofu na mwenye haki,
51 (he had not consented to their counsel and deed), from Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, who was also waiting for God’s Kingdom.
(ajhele akubaliene lepi ni maamuzi au matendo ghabhu), kuhoma Armathaya, mji bhwa Kiyahudi, ambabho bhwajhele wilondela ufalme bhwa K'yara.
52 This man went to Pilate, and asked for Jesus’ body.
Munu ojho, an'karibili Pilato, akas'oka apelibhwajhi mb'ele bhwa Yesu.
53 He took it down and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that was cut in stone, where no one had ever been laid.
An'selisi, ni kuusyangosela sanda, ni kumbeka mulikaburi lyalyachongibhu mu liganga, ambalyo ajhelepi jhe abhwayili kusyelibhwa.
54 It was the day of the Preparation, and the Sabbath was drawing near.
Jhajhele ligono lya maandalizi, ni sabato jhikaribila.
55 The women who had come with him out of Galilee followed after, and saw the tomb and how his body was laid.
Bhadala, bhabhahidili nabhu kuhoma Galilaya, bhan'kesisi na bhabhwene kaburi ni jinsi mbele bhwa muene Kya ugonikibhu.
56 They returned and prepared spices and ointments. On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
Bhakerebhuki ni kujhandala manukato ni marashi. Kisha ligono lya sabato bhap'om'osiki kwa mujibu bhwa sheria.
