Luka 22
1 Bhapamila shikulukulu eye makati yeseponyezewe echachu yehwetwa shukulukulu eye pasaka.
The Feast of the Unleavened Bread, known as the Passover, was near.
2 Na gosi abhemakohani na simbi bhali bhahwanza idara elya hugoje, afwanaje bhali bhabhogopa abhantu.
The Chief Priest and the Teachers of the Law were looking for an opportunity of destroying Jesus, for they were afraid of the people.
3 Oshetani wamwinjila o Yuda yakwiziwa Iskariote, wape wamwo na bhala ethenashala.
Now Satan took possession of Judas, who was known as Iscariot, and who belonged to the Twelve;
4 Wasogola wabhata wayanga na gosi abha makuhani na jemedari ejinsi sha bhawezye hubheshe mmakhono gabho.
and he went and discussed with the Chief Priests and Officers in charge at the Temple the best way of betraying Jesus to them.
5 Bhasongwa, bhetehana nawo hupele ehela.
They were glad of this, and agreed to pay him.
6 Weteha wanza enafasi eya husaliti hwabhahale pasepali obongono.
So Judas assented, and looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus to them, in the absence of a crowd.
7 Yafishili isiku lye makati gasegaponyezeyea we echachu, ambayo yahanziwaga asinze epasaka.
When the day of the Festival of the Unleavened Bread came, on which the Passover lambs had to be killed,
8 Wabhasontezya o Petro no Yohana, wayanga bhalaji mtilenganyizye epasaka tipata alye.”
Jesus sent forward Peter and John, saying to them: “Go and make preparations for our eating the Passover.”
9 Bhabhola, “Uhwanza tibhale hwi?”
“Where do you wish us to make preparations?” they asked.
10 Wabhabhola, “Enya, nambhahwinjile mwibomba mbhatangane ulume akhete esonta owe menze. Mrundozyaje mbhahwinjile enyumba yabhahwinji omwahale.
“Listen,” he answered, “when you have got into the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you; follow him into whatever house he enters;
11 Na mbhahubhula omwanesho nyumba, “Osambelezi ahubhola, ili hwii empanda eyajenyi, empate alye Epasaka omwo pandwemo na manyiziwa bhane?”
and you shall say to the owner of the house ‘The Teacher says to you — Where is the room where I am to eat the Passover with my disciples?’
12 Wape abhabhalanje empanda engosi orufani, shimalishe asimbwe, lenganyi omwo.”
The man will show you a large upstairs room, set out; there make preparations.”
13 Wabhala, bhalola neshe shabhabholele bhayilenganya Epasaka.
So Peter and John went on, and found everything just as Jesus had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
14 Hata sala nayafiha akheye pashalye omwahale na bhala mitume pandwemo nawo.
When the time came, Jesus took his place at table, and the Apostles with him.
15 Wabhabhola, “Entanianile tee ayilye epasaka ene pandwemo namwe sesele alabha hwane.
“I have most earnestly wished,” he said, “to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.
16 Afwanaje embabhola eyaje sendya nantele hata nehaitimizya oumwene owa Ngolobhe.”
For I tell you that I shall not eat it again, until it has had its fulfilment in the Kingdom of God.”
17 Yabha o Yesu wega shikombe, nawamala asaligwe wayanga, eji eshi na mgabhane, je mwemwe hwamwe.
Then, on receiving a cup, after saying the thanksgiving, he said:
18 Afwanaje embabhola, sembamwele nantele papo eye mzabibu, mpaka umwene owa Ngolobhe nawayenza.”
“Take this and share it among you. For I tell you that I shall not, after to-day, drink of the juice of the grape, till the Kingdom of God has come.”
19 Esho wega ibumunda nali amalile asalifye waumesula, nabhele, wayanga, ogu ni bele gwane ambao ufumiziwe kwajili eyahuumwe. Bhombaji eshi anizushe ane.”
Then Jesus took some bread, and, after saying the thanksgiving, broke it and gave to them, with the words: “This is my body, [which is now to be given on your behalf. Do this in memory of me.”]
20 Wega eshikombe shesho shesho nabhalya eshaye esha nosiku wayanga, eshikombe ndagano epya ezya danda lyane ambalyo litishe kwa ajili yahulimwe.
[And in the same way with the cup, after supper, saying: “This cup is the New Covenant made by my blood which is being poured out on your behalf. ]
21 Lelo enyaji ola yansaliti alipandwemo, nane pameza.
Yet see! the hand of the man that is betraying me is beside me upon the table!
22 Afwanaje mwana owa Adamu lyoli abhabhale neshe shekusudiwe lelo, Ole wakwe omntu ya husaliti!”
True, the Son of Man is passing, by the way ordained for him, yet alas for that man by whom he is being betrayed!”
23 Bhandile abhozye bhebho hwa bhebho wenu miongoni mwabho ambaye agabhomba ijambo eli.
Then they began questioning one another which of them it could be that was going to do this.
24 Esho wafumila adalihane bhebho bhene aje wenu wase bhelelwe abhe gosi ashile bhonti.
And a dispute arose among them as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest.
25 Wabhabhola, “Amwene abhabhantu abhemataifa bhana ugosi juu yabho na bhala bhabhali namamlaka juu yabho bhakwiziwa bhaheshimiwa bhalongozi.
Jesus, however, said: “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their oppressors are styled ‘Benefactors.’
26 Lelo sewanziwa abhesho hwilimwee amwe, ebadala yakwe leha ola ambaye gosi kati yahwilimwe abhe neshe ododu. Na ola yali wa mbimu tee abhe nenshe otumwa.
But with you it must not be so. No, let the greatest among you become like the youngest, and him who leads like him who serves.
27 Afwanaje yayolihu ogosi ola yakhala pameza nola yabhomba embombo? Eshi seyayola yakheye pameza? Na ane esele kati yenyu ane netumiaha.
Which is the greater — the master at the table or his servant? Is not it the master at the table? Yet I myself am among you as one who serves.
28 Lelo amwe mwemwe mwendeleye abhanane kati amalabha gane au (alengwe).
You are the men who have stood by me in my trials;
29 Embapela amwe umwene neshe shla Ubaba shampiye ane umwene,
and, just as my Father has assigned me a Kingdom, I assign you places,
30 je mpate alye na mwele pameza yane huumwene wane. Na mwikhala mmatengo age enzi mwaizilonga evikholo kumi na zibhele ezya Israeli.
so that you may eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom, and be seated upon twelve thrones as judges of the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 Simoni, Simoni, manya aje, Shetani alabhile abhaje ili abhapete nenshe engano.
Simon! Simon! listen. Satan demanded leave to sift you all like wheat,
32 Lelo embalabhiye, yaje olyeteho lyaho lugaje munwe, nawe nohaya ulya obhazenje oholo bhaho.”
but I prayed for you, Simon, that your faith should not fail. And you, when you have returned to me, are to strengthen your Brothers.”
33 Wabhola, “Gosi, nendi pandwemo nawe, ana endi tayali abhale mwijela au hata hufwe.”
“Master,” said Peter, “with you I am ready to go both to prison and to death.”
34 Wayanga, “Ehubhola Petro, ehanda sebhakuje sanyono, sosele awe ahane mala hatatu eyaje somenye.”
“I tell you, Peter,” replied Jesus, “the cock will not crow to-day till you have disowned all knowledge of me three times.”
35 Wabhabhozya eshi epo, nehabhasontezyezye semwali nifuko walu omkoba wala evilato, mwapongoshewe na hantu?” Bhayanga “Haa.”
Then he said to them all: “When I sent you out as my Messengers, without either purse, or bag, or sandals, were you in need of anything?” “No; nothing,” they answered.
36 Wabhabhola, lelo eshi yali nifuko ayeje wape yali nomkoba ayeje, wape yasagali ni panga, na akazye ijoo lyakwe akale.
“Now, however,” he said, “he who has a purse must take it and his bag as well; and he who has not must sell his cloak and buy a sword.
37 Afwanaje embabhola, ega gagasimbiwiwe segali ne budi atimiziwe hwiline, eyaje abhaziwe pandwemo nebho bhanankanya, afwanaje ewasiwa gali nomalishilo wakwe.”
For, I tell you, that passage of Scripture must be fulfilled in me, which says — ‘He was counted among the godless’; indeed all that refers to me is finding its fulfilment.”
38 Bhayanga, “Gosi, enya! Epa gahwili amapanga gabhele.” Wene.
“Master,” they exclaimed, “look, here are two swords!” “Enough!” said Jesus.
39 Wafuma wabhala mpaka mwigamba elya Mzietuni enshe ekawaida yakwe, asambeleziwa bhakwe bhape bhalongozanya nawo.
Jesus then went out, and made his way as usual to the Mount of Olives, followed by his disciples.
40 Nawafiha pala abhabholele, labhaji aje mganji ahwinji mndengo.
And, when he reached the spot, he said to them: “Pray that you may not fall into temptation.”
41 Omwahale wahwibagula nabho nenshe kias esha ponye iwe, wafugamila amafugamo watabha,
Then he withdrew about a stone’s throw, and knelt down and began to pray.
42 ayanga, “Ee Baba, nkashele mapenzi gaho, onefwezye eshikombe eshi lelo senapenzi gane, eshi gahuliwe gabhombeshe.”
“Father,” he said, “if it is thy pleasure, spare me this cup; only, not my will but thine be done.”
43 Omalaika afume amwanya wafumila wapela amaha.
Presently there appeared to him an angel from Heaven, who strengthened him.
44 Wape shila shali mmalabha, wonjezya alabhe tee, ehali yakwe yabha nenshe amalavula age danda galagala pansi.
And, as his anguish became intense, he prayed still more earnestly, while his sweat was like great drops of blood falling on the ground.
45 Nawasogola hula alabhe hwakwe wabhalila asambelezewa bhakwe, wabhaga bhagonile otulo ogwa kogobhale,
Then he rose from praying, and came to the disciples and found them sleeping for sorrow.
46 wabhabhora, yenu mgonile otulo? Ogoli, mlabhe msahabha ahwinjile mndengo.'
“Why are you asleep?” he asked them. “Rise and pray, that you may not fall into temptation.”
47 Basi nahali katika ayanje, enya obongano wa bhantu, nola yakwiziwa Yuda, ambaye ni moja yabhala mitume abhatagali hwitagalila wapalamila hwa Yesu ili ayayile.
While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared in sight, led by the man called Judas, who was one of the Twelve. Judas approached Jesus, to kiss him;
48 o Yesu wabhola, “Yuda, wamsaliti omwana owa Adamu esha huyayile?”
on which Jesus said to him: “Judas, is it by a kiss that you betray the Son of Man?”
49 Na bhala bhabhali papepe nawo nbhalola gagafumila, bhayanga, “Gosi, tibhakhoma na mapanga”?
But when those who were round Jesus saw what was going to happen, they exclaimed: “Master, shall we use our swords?”
50 Omo wabho wakhoma obhomba mbombo wa kuhani gosi, wadumla ikutu elya hulero.
And one of them struck the High Priest’s servant and cut off his right ear;
51 U Yesu wagalula woyanga, “Bhanji hulu hweli. Wapalamasya ikutu waponia.
on which Jesus said: “Let me at least do this”; and, touching his ear, he healed the wound.
52 U Yesu wabhabhola agosi bhemakuhani, na maakida abhibhanza, nazee bhebhenzele juu yakwe, “Eshi mwenzele mweli na mapanga nu ndugu nensheje mkhata ya fyola?
Then, turning to the Chief Priests and Officers in charge at the Temple and Councillors, who had come for him, he said: “Have you come out, as if after a robber, with swords and clubs?
53 Shila lisiku nali pandwomo namwe mwibhanza semwasontezyezye amakhono lelo ene ndiyo sala yenyu. Lakini hii ni saa yako, na mamlaka age nkisi.
When I was with you day after day in the Temple Courts, you did not lay hands on me; but now your time has come, and the power of Darkness.”
54 Bhakhata, bhamwega, bhabhala nawo munyumba eya kuhani ogosi. Nu Petro alondolelaga sahutali.
Those who had taken Jesus prisoner took him away into the house of the High Priest. Peter followed at a distance.
55 Nabhamalile ahwasya omwoto pahati eye shibhanja bhakheye pandwemo, wape u Petro akheye nabho.
But, when they had lit a fire in the centre of the court-yard and had all sat down there, Peter seated himself in the middle of them.
56 Ndipo obhomba mbombo omo walola akheye papalabha, walangulila amaso wayanga nono ali pandwemo nawo.
Presently a maidservant saw him sitting near the blaze of the fire. Fixing her eyes on him, she said: “Why, this man was one of his companions!”
57 Wakhana, wayanga, ee, she, semenye.
But Peter denied it. “I do not know him,” he replied.
58 Pamanda hashe, omuntu owamwabho alolile wayanga, Petro wanyanga, “Ee mntu, se nene.”
A little while afterwards some one else — a man — saw him and said: “Why, you are one of them!” “No,” Peter said, “I am not.”
59 Antele lyashita isala limo, omntu owamwabho wakasa ayanje, “Lyoli ono ali pandwemo nawo afwanaje omwahale nantele Mgalilaya.”
About an hour later another man declared positively: “This man also was certainly with him. Why, he is a Galilean!”
60 Petro wayanga, “Ee mntu, sendimenye lyo yanga.” Na pepo, pepo nali katika ayanje, ehanda ahakujile.
But Peter said: “I do not know what you are speaking about.” Instantly, while he was still speaking, a cock crowed.
61 Gosi wagaluha wamwenya u Petro. U Petro walizuha lila izu elya Gosi, ejinsi shabholele, “Sanyono sesele akuje ehanda obhahane mala hatatu.”
And the Master turned and looked at Peter; and Peter remembered the words that the Master had said to him — “Before a cock has crowed to-day, you will disown me three times”;
62 Wafuma hwonze waula humansai.
and he went outside and wept bitterly.
63 Na bhala bhantu bhali bhahukhata u Yesu, bhabhombile edhihaka bhakhoma.
The men that held Jesus kept making sport of him and beating him.
64 Bhavwenesya amaso, bhanda hubhozye, bhozye bhayanga, kuwa wenu yakhonule?”
They blindfolded him and then questioned him. “Now play the Prophet,” they said; “who was it that struck you?”
65 Bhafumizya nengwa mwabho nyinji gahuliji.
And they heaped many other insults on him.
66 Hata nahwashiye, bhatangene amwabho abheshi gosi, na gosi abhe makuhani nusimbi bhateta mwikoloti lyabho bhayanga,
At daybreak the National Council met — both the Chief Priests and the Teachers of the Law — and took Jesus before their High Council.
67 nkashile, “Awe wa Klisiti, tibhole.” Wabhabhola ewapo embabhola, semuwezizya ahweteshele tee,
“If you are the Christ,” they said, “tell us so.” “If I tell you,” replied Jesus, “you will not believe me;
68 na nkashele mbabhozye sembhagalule.”
and, if I question you, you will not answer.
69 Lelo ahwanda eshi na hwendele, Omwana owa Adamu abhabhe akheye okhono ondelo ogwe maha aga Ngolobhe.”
But from this hour ‘the Son of Man will be seated on the right hand of God Almighty.’”
70 Bhonti bhayanga, “Eshi awe oli Mwana wa Ngolobhe?” Na Yesu wabhabhola, “Amwe myanjile ane nene.”
“Are you, then, the Son of God?” they all asked. “It is true,” answered Jesus, “I am.”
71 Bhayanga, “Yesnu tihwanza nantele oushahidi afwanaje ate tete tovwezya afume mwilomu lyakwe yoyo.”
At this they exclaimed: “Why do we want any more evidence? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips!”
