1 Hei̱nyu̱ma lukuratu lwensei̱ lwabyokeerye lwatwala Yesu̱, mu mei̱so ga Pi̱laato, mu̱handu̱ weisaza lya B̯uyudaaya mu b̯ukama b̯wa B̯u̱ru̱u̱mi̱. 2 Ku̱kwo hooho baatandi̱ki̱i̱ri̱ kujunaana Yesu̱ nibakoba: “Twagi̱i̱rye yogwo mudulu naaku̱habi̱sya bantu beetu̱, naakubaweera basuule kugaba musolo gwa b̯ukama b̯wa B̯u̱ru̱u̱mi̱, na kindi yo yankei naakwetwala, kubba Ku̱ri̱si̱to, kandi mukama.”

3 Mwomwo Pi̱laato yaab̯u̱u̱lya Yesu̱, “Weewe, mukama wa Bayudaaya?”

Yesu̱ yaamwi̱ri̱ri̱mwo yati, “Odooseerye kukoba nti, ndi Mwana wa Ruhanga.”

4 Kasi Pi̱laato yaaweera bahandu̱ ba balaami̱ na ruganga lwa bantu yati, “Gya, tinkuwona b̯ub̯iibi b̯wensei̱ b̯umukujunaana yogwo mudulu.”

5 Bei̱tu̱, bo bantu, baahami̱ri̱i̱ri̱ kujunaana Yesu̱ nti, “Kwegesya kwamwe ku̱ku̱cu̱u̱ki̱ri̱i̱rya bantu bensei̱ ba B̯uyudaaya. Yaatandi̱ki̱i̱ri̱ Galilaaya, kandi hataati̱, ei̱zi̱ri̱ na haha.”

6 Pi̱laato b̯u̱yeegwi̱ri̱ yatyo yaab̯u̱u̱lya, “Yogo mudulu ali Mugalilaaya?” 7 B̯u̱yeetegeri̱i̱ze Yesu̱, nka kuyaali hansi wa b̯u̱sobozi̱ b̯wa Herodi̱, yaamu̱si̱ndi̱ki̱ri̱ hali Herodi̱, Herodi̱ de, mu b̯wi̱re b̯wob̯wo, yaali mu Yeru̱salemu̱. 8 Herodi̱ b̯u̱yaaweeni̱ Yesu̱, yaasemereerwe hoi̱ kubba, hab̯wa kasu̱mi̱ kalei yei̱ceeri̱ ni̱yendyanga kumuwonaho. Ku̱si̱gi̱ki̱ra ku bintu bya Herodi̱ biyaalingi yeegwi̱ri̱ho ku Yesu̱, yaani̱hi̱rengi̱ akwi̱za kuwona Yesu̱ naakukora byamahanu. 9 Kasi mwomwo, Herodi̱ yaamu̱b̯u̱u̱lya bi̱b̯u̱u̱lyo binene, bei̱tu̱ Yesu̱ atakei̱remwo kintu kyensei̱. 10 B̯u̱b̯wo, bahandu̱ ba balaami̱ na beegesa ba biragiro baali beemereeri̱ hahwo, nibakujunaana Yesu̱ na maani gensei̱. 11 Herodi̱ na basurukali baamwe baamu̱lu̱mi̱ri̱ kandi baamu̱jooga; mwomwo baamu̱lwalya kilwalu ki̱nyi̱ri̱ru̱, baamu̱ku̱byayo hali Pi̱laato. 12 Kuruga na kiro ki̱kyo, Herodi̱ na Pi̱laato baafoki̱ri̱ banywani; bi̱byo bigambu bi̱takabbeeri̱ho baali banobangeeni̱.

13 Pi̱laato yaatu̱mi̱i̱ri̱ bahandu̱ ba balaami̱, balemi̱ ba Bayudaaya na bantu, bensei̱ barombe hamwenya nayo. 14 B̯u̱bei̱zi̱ri̱ yaabaweera yati, “+Mwandeteeri̱ yogwo mudulu mwakoba, yaali naaku̱habya bantu. Mmu̱b̯u̱u̱li̱i̱rye haha mu mei̱so geenyu̱, +nyaagya atali na musangu gwensei̱ nywe gumukumujunaana. 15 Herodi̱ de, atakamuwonemwo musangu gwensei̱, kubba amu̱si̱ndi̱ki̱ri̱ ei̱re hali twe. Tihalohoona kintu kyensei̱ kya yogwo mudulu kyakoori̱ kikuha kumucwera kifubiro kya ku̱kwa. 16 Nahab̯waki̱kyo, nkwi̱za ku̱mwegesya ngesu zirungi, kasi mwomwo mmu̱teesye.” [ 17 Ha b̯wi̱re b̯wensei̱, b̯wa B̯u̱genyi̱ b̯wa Kurab̯waho Pi̱laato yaateesu̱lengi̱ munyankomo omwei̱ hab̯wa Bayudaaya.]* 23:17 Bbai̱bbu̱li̱ zindi zi̱teeryahoona lukaara lwa 17.

18 Bei̱tu̱, bantu bensei̱ baalu̱ki̱ri̱ hamwenya nibakoba, “Mwi̱te! Otu̱teeseerye Bbarabba!” 19 (Bbarabba baalingi bamu̱teeri̱ mu nkomo hab̯wa b̯u̱jeemu̱ b̯wamwe, b̯unyakutab̯ura bantu bakeesansala mu rub̯uga lu̱mwei̱, na muntu giyaalingi ei̱ti̱ri̱).

20 Pi̱laato, amaari̱ kubba naakwendya ku̱teesya Yesu̱, yaaweereeri̱ ruganga lwa bantu murundi gundi nti, Yesu̱ yaali atali na musangu. 21 Bei̱tu̱, bantu baahami̱ri̱i̱ri̱ kwaluka nibakoba, “Mu̱mu̱bambe! Mu̱mu̱bambe!”

22 Mwomwo yaabaweera ha murundi gwakasatu yati, “Bei̱tu̱ yo, yogwo mudulu, agu̱mi̱ri̱ musangu ki? Gya tinkuwona b̯ub̯iibi b̯undi b̯wa yogwo mudulu bwakoori̱ b̯ukumuha kumucwera kifubiro kya ku̱kwa. Nahab̯waki̱kyo, nkwi̱za ku̱mwegesya ngesu zirungi, kasi mwomwo mu̱teesye.”

23 Bei̱tu̱, bantu baahaami̱ri̱i̱ri̱ kwaluka na maani, nibasaba Pi̱laato abambe Yesu̱ ha musalaba, kandi hakumaliira baamu̱hambi̱ri̱i̱ze yeikiriza. 24 Hei̱nyu̱ma, Pi̱laato yaacwereeri̱ Yesu̱ kifubiro kya ku̱kwa nka bab̯wo bantu ku̱bendyengi̱. 25 Yaateesya yogwo mudulu gi̱bendyengi̱, Bbarabba, munyakubba abboheerwe mu nkomo hab̯wa b̯u̱jeemu̱ b̯wamwe, b̯unyakutab̯ura bantu bakeesansala, na musangu gwa b̯wi̱ti̱.

26 Basurukali b̯ubaali nibakutwala Yesu̱ kumubamba, baakweti̱ mudulu Mu̱ku̱leeni̱ gi̱beetengi̱ Si̱mooni̱, munyakubba naakuruga mu kyaru baamu̱tweka musalaba baamuhambiriza kulibata nagwo naahonderanga Yesu̱.

27 Bantu banene baahondeeri̱ Yesu̱, kandi hakati̱ gya bantu banene bab̯wo haalingimwo de bakali̱ banyakubba basaali̱i̱rwe hoi̱ nibakuliriira Yesu̱. 28 Yesu̱ yaahi̱ndu̱ki̱ri̱ hali bakali̱ bab̯wo, yaabaweera, “Nywe, bakali̱ ba Yeru̱salemu̱! Mu̱leke kundiriira, bei̱tu̱, mweli̱ri̱i̱re nywankei na baana beenyu̱. 29 Kubba kasu̱mi̱ ka kuwonawona kakwi̱za kudwa, kaliha bantu kukoba nti, ‘Bakali̱ batali na baana bali na mu̱gi̱sa!’ 30 B̯u̱b̯wo hooho bantu baliweera nsahu yati,

31 “Mu mananu bibi bintu bilibbaho, kubba gya muntu atali na b̯ub̯iibi b̯wensei̱, bantu baakabba bambonawoneseerye yatyo, kale, bab̯wo babiibi Ruhanga alibakola teetei̱?”

32 Kandi de, haalingiho batemu babiri, banyakutwalwa kwi̱twa hamwenya na Yesu̱. 33 Baadoori̱ ha kiikaru kyetwa “Luhanga.” B̯u̱baadoori̱yo, baabamba Yesu̱ ha musalaba gu̱mwei̱, na bab̯wo batemu babiri, b̯uli muntu ha musalaba gwamwe yankei, omwei̱ ha mukono gwa Yesu̱ gwa b̯udyo, wondi ha gwa b̯umoso. 34 Mwomwo Yesu̱ yaakoba, “Bbaabba, baganyire!† 23:34 Bbai̱bbu̱li̱ zindi tizigira bigambu bibi: Bbaabba, baganyire! Kubba ti̱beegi̱ri̱ kintu kibakukora.”

Basurukali bab̯wo, beegabi̱i̱ri̱ ngoye zaamwe, kuraba mu kukuuta karu̱ru̱. 35 Kandi b̯u̱b̯wo, bantu baali beemereeri̱, nibakusunga balemi̱ ba Bayudaaya nibakujooga Yesu̱ nti: “Yaaju̱nengi̱ bandi; yeejune yankei yaakabba naali yooyo Ku̱ri̱si̱to, Mutongoole wa Ruhanga!”

36 Basurukali naboodede baamu̱joogi̱ri̱. Bei̱zi̱ri̱ hali yo, baamuha maaci galulu, 37 baamuweera yati, “Waakabba nooli mukama wa Bayudaaya, weejuna!”

38 Kandi de, hahwo kwakyendi̱ waamwe, ku kikondo baateeri̱ho kihandiiko kikusomwa yati: YOGO YOOYO MUKAMA WA BAYUDAAYA.

39 Omwei̱ ha bab̯wo batemu munyakubba abambi̱i̱rwe hahwo, yaalu̱mi̱ri̱ Yesu̱ naakoba: “Tiweewe Ku̱ri̱si̱to? Weejuna, otujune natwe!”

40 Bei̱tu̱ kandi, yogwo wondi, yaageeni̱ mwi̱ra naakoba, “We, toti̱i̱na Ruhanga we? Kifubiro ki̱baku̱cwereeri̱, nayodede kyokyo ki̱mwei̱ ki̱bamu̱cwereeri̱. 41 Twe babiri tu̱fu̱bi̱i̱rwe mu b̯u̱doori̱, kubba gya nawe kifubiro kyetu̱ kikwijanjana na bibiibi byetu̱ bi̱twakoori̱. Bei̱tu̱ yogwo mudulu tali na kintu kibiibi ki̱yaakoori̱.” 42 Kasi mwomwo, yaaweera Yesu̱ naakoba, “Yesu̱, wanzi̱zu̱kanga b̯wolibba odoori̱ mu b̯ukama b̯wamu!”

43 Yesu̱ yei̱ri̱ri̱mwo yogwo mudulu, “Mu mananu nkukuweera nti, deeru lyoli okwi̱za kubba nagya mwiguru.”

44 B̯u̱b̯wo zaali saaha nka mukaaga za mwinsi. Hei̱zi̱ri̱ho nti̱ti̱ gyabbumba nsi gyensei̱, gyadoosya saaha mwenda za joojolo, 45 kubba kalyoba kaalingi kaleki̱ri̱ho kusuuka; naha b̯wi̱re b̯wob̯wo, lu̱ti̱mbe lwa mu Yeekaru lwatemu̱ki̱ri̱mwo bicweka bibiri. 46 Mwomwo Yesu̱ yaalu̱ki̱ri̱ neiraka likooto naakoba, “Bbaabba, gya b̯womi b̯wange mbu̱heeri̱yo mu ngalu zaamu!” B̯u̱yaamaari̱ kubaza yatyo, yaakwa.

47 Mu̱handu̱ wa bab̯wo basurukali banyakubamba Yesu̱, b̯u̱yaaweeni̱ bintu binyakubbaho, yaahaari̱i̱ze Ruhanga, yaakoba, “Mali̱ kwo, mudulu yogwo, ei̱ceeri̱ naali mudulu murungi.”

48 Bantu bensei̱ banyakubba beecooki̱ri̱ hahwo, kuwona isunge li̱lyo, b̯u̱baaweeni̱ bintu binyakubbaho, beemu̱ki̱ri̱ nibakulira kizabiro kya maani mu maka gaab̯u. 49 Bei̱tu̱ bantu bensei̱ banyakubba beegi̱ri̱ Yesu̱ kurungi hamwenya na bakali̱ banyakubba bamu̱hondeeri̱ kurugira ki̱mwei̱ Galilaaya, beemereeri̱ na hadeiho, baawona bi̱byo bintu byensei̱.

50-51 Kandi haalingiho mudulu omwei̱ gi̱beetengi̱ Yozefu̱, wa mu rub̯uga lunyakwetwanga Ari̱masaaya lwa B̯uyudaaya. Yozefu̱ yogwo yaali mudulu murungi kandi waki̱ti̱i̱ni̱sa, munyakubba ali̱ndi̱ri̱i̱ri̱ kwi̱za kwa b̯ukama b̯wa Ruhanga. Nab̯ukyakabba nti Yozefu̱ yaalingi mu̱ku̱rati̱ mu lukuratu lwa Bayudaaya, yei̱ki̱rani̱i̱ze kwahi na lukuratu ku bintu bya baku̱rati̱ bei̱ra baalingi bacwi̱ri̱mwo kandi bakoori̱. 52 Mwomwo Yozefu̱ yaagyenda hali Pi̱laato, yaamusaba mutumbi gwa Yesu̱. 53 Yaagu̱toori̱yo, yaagubinda mu lu̱goye lu̱syanu̱, yaaguta mu kituuru kinyakubba ki̱temeerwe nka b̯wingira ha lubbaali, kibaali batakaziikangamwo muntu. 54 Kiro ki̱kyo kyali kiro kibeeta Kyakweteekanirizamwo, hab̯wakubba kiro kya Sabbaato kyali nikili heehi̱ kutandika.

55 Hei̱nyu̱ma, bamwei̱ ha bakali̱ banyakubba bei̱zi̱ri̱ na Yesu̱ kuruga Galilaaya, baagyendagyendi̱ri̱ na Yozefu̱ baawona kituuru na mu̱li̱ngo gwa mutumbi gwa Yesu̱ gwali gu̱zi̱i̱ki̱i̱rwemwona. 56 Mwomwo bab̯wo bakali̱ baaku̱bayo, baani̱hi̱ri̱i̱rya maku̱ta gaku̱wu̱nya na bikoora bya misaali bi̱ku̱wu̱nya kurungi hab̯wa mutumbi gwa Yesu̱.

Ha kiro kya Sabbaato ki̱kyo, bakali̱ bab̯wo baahu̱u̱mwi̱ri̱, nka biragiro bya Mu̱sa ku̱byaragi̱rengi̱.
