Mark 15 (BOU) · Opened

1Kwekuchaho waviki wakuu na wadaa na wahinyi wa miko na Baaza kuu dose, wakamgea phingu Yesu wakamwegaa na kumwekhiiza kwa Pilato.Early in the morning, the chief priests, elders, scribes, and the whole Sanhedrin devised a plan. They bound Jesus, led Him away, and handed Him over to Pilate.

2Pilato akamuuza Yesu, “Wee ni Seuta wa Wayahudi?” Yesu akamtambaisa, “Eeh inga ugombekavyo wee!”So Pilate questioned Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied.

3Waviki wakuu wakamuahia Yesu kwa mbui nyingi.And the chief priests began to accuse Him of many things.

4Pilato akamuuza vituhu Yesu, “khuna da kutambaisa? Kauwa wakusakiavyo mbui nyingi kwaajii yako.”Then Pilate questioned Him again, “Have You no answer? Look how many charges they are bringing against You!”

5Akini Yesu khekutambaisa mbui hata Pilato akahondomaa.But to Pilate’s amazement, Jesus made no further reply.

6Kia kisingi cha sikukhuu ya Pasaka, Pilato kawa na mazweea ya kuwavuguiya mfungwa yumwe wamkundaye.Now it was Pilate’s custom at the feast to release to the people a prisoner of their choosing.

7Kisingi icho nekuwa na mntu yumwe etangwae Balaba, nee kafungwa hamwe na wantu wekuaho waemea uongooezi, naho nee wagosoa ukomaji kwe khumbizi.And a man named Barabbas was imprisoned with the rebels who had committed murder during the insurrection.

8Wantu wangi wakaita kwa Pilato wakamwombeza awagosoee inga yekuwavyo akawagosoea.So the crowd went up and began asking Pilate to keep his custom.

9Pilato akawauza, “Mwakunda niwavuguiye Seuta wa Wayahudi?”“Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?” Pilate asked.

10Pilato kagombeka ivyo kwaajii kamanya pwii waviki wakuu wamwegaa Yesu kwakwe kwaajii ya kinyuu.For he knew it was out of envy that the chief priests had handed Jesus over.

11Akini waviki wakuu wakawatenda wantu watoe vuzo ili wamwombeze Pilato awavuguiye Balaba.But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release Barabbas to them instead.

12Pilato akawauza wantu vituhu, isasa mwakunda nigosoe mbwai mntu uyu mwetangwae Seuta wa Wayahudi?So Pilate asked them again, “What then do you want me to do with the One you call the King of the Jews?”

13Wantu wose wakatowa mgutio vituhu, “Mgong'ondeni kwe mhamba!”And they shouted back, “Crucify Him!”

14Akini Pilato akawauza, “Kwambwai! Kagosoa ufyaimu wani?” Akini wowo wakaendeea kutoa mgutio, “Mgong'ondeni he mhamba!”“Why?” asked Pilate. “What evil has He done?” But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify Him!”

15Pilato akakunda kutamiza dia zumwezumwe da wantu. Aho nee amwekea Balaba kulawa mwe kifungo. Akakunda Yesu atoigwe ngoda wakabinda wamgong'ondee he mhamba.And wishing to satisfy the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged, and handed Him over to be crucified.

16Naho asikai wakamwegaa Yesu mwe buha da nyumba ya mkuu wa si ya Yudea, aho wakakintana kikosi kigima cha asikai.Then the soldiers led Jesus away into the palace (that is, the Praetorium) and called the whole company together.

17Wakamvika gwanda da zambalau, wakagosoa kintu inga khofia ya useuta yekugosolwayo na miwa, wakamwiikia Yesu mwe mtwi wakwe.They dressed Him in a purple robe, twisted together a crown of thorns, and set it on His head.

18Wakavoka kumuugusa, “Mwinyi Seuta wa Wayahudi!”And they began to salute Him: “Hail, King of the Jews!”

19Wakamtoa kwa ngoda ya lasi mwe mtwi, wakamswiia ovu, wakamkintia mavindi na kumwenamia.They kept striking His head with a staff and spitting on Him. And they knelt down and bowed before Him.

20Wekubindaho kumbea, wakamhambua dia gwanda da zambalau, wakamvika nguo zakwe, naho wakamlavya chongoi, wakamwegaa kumgong'ondea mwe mhamba.After they had mocked Him, they removed the purple robe and put His own clothes back on Him. Then they led Him out to crucify Him.

21Wekuwaho siai, wakakintana na mntu yumwe etangwae Simoni, mwenyezi wa Kilene. Yee nee ni tate yao Alekizanda na Lufo na kisingi icho ne akalawa chongoi ya mzi. Nee asikai wamshutiza audoe mhamba wa Yesu.Now Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, was passing by on his way in from the country, and the soldiers forced him to carry the cross of Jesus.

22Naho wakamwegaa Yesu adi hantu hetangwaho Goligota, mana yakwe hantu ha Fufu da Mtwi.They brought Jesus to a place called Golgotha, which means The Place of the Skull.

23Wakamwekha divai yekuhanganywayo na mzigi wetangwao manemane, akini yee akaemea kuidomea.There they offered Him wine mixed with myrrh, but He did not take it.

24Nee wamgong'ondea he mhamba, wakapangana nguo zakwe na kuzitoea kula kia yumwe adoe yakwe.And they crucified Him. They also divided His garments by casting lots to decide what each of them would take.

25Neiwa saa ntatu da keo wekumgong'ondeavyo he mhamba.It was the third hour when they crucified Him.

26Nee yagondwa masa yakwe ni, “Seuta wa Wayahudi.”And the charge inscribed against Him read: THE KING OF THE JEWS.

27Wamgong'ondea he mhamba na wahokaji waidi kia yumwe mhamba wakwe, yumwe phande ya kudiiya na mtuhu phande ya kumoso.Along with Jesus, they crucified two robbers, one on His right and one on His left.

28Aho Maandiko ya Muungu yakaigania yambayo, “Kaikwa kundi dimwe hamwe na wahokaji.”Not in the BSB

29Wantu wekuwao wemboka hantu hada wakamdumua wakasingisa mitwi yao na kugombeka, Ehee! Wee mtua Nyumba ya Muungu na kuizenga kwa misi mitatu.And those who passed by heaped abuse on Him, shaking their heads and saying, “Aha! You who are going to destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days,

30Isasa weohoe mwenye seea he mhamba!come down from the cross and save Yourself!”

31Na viyaviya waviki wakuu hamwe na wahinyi wa miko wakammbea wakamba, “Kawaohoa wantu watuhu akini khadaha kweohoa mwenye!”In the same way, the chief priests and scribes mocked Him among themselves, saying, “He saved others, but He cannot save Himself!

32Ati yee ni Klistu ekusagulwae ni Muungu, Seuta wa Isilaeli! Na asee kulawa he mhamba tione na kumzumiia hata wada wantu wekugong'ondwao wose he mhamba nae wakamdumua.Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, so that we may see and believe!” And even those who were crucified with Him berated Him.

33Kuvokea saa mtandatu wa musi adi saa kenda kiza kikuu kikagwa mwe si yose.From the sixth hour until the ninth hour darkness came over all the land.

34Saa kenda guoni Yesu akaiya kwa mgutio mkuu, akamba, “Eloi, Eloi, lama, Sabakitani?” Mana yakwe, “Muungu yangu, Muungu yangu mbona kunibada?”At the ninth hour, Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”

35Wamwe wa wantu wekugookao hada wekutegezaho ivyo wakamba, “Tegeeza! Amwetanga Elia.”When some of those standing nearby heard this, they said, “Behold, He is calling Elijah.”

36Mntu yumwe akamgukia akaginta dodoki mwe divai yekusasayo, akaika uwanga ya lasi akamwekha adomee akamba, “Hembu timkaue ati Elia endaeze amseeze he mhamba!”And someone ran and filled a sponge with sour wine. He put it on a reed and held it up for Jesus to drink, saying, “Leave Him alone. Let us see if Elijah comes to take Him down.”

37Yesu akakema kwa mgutio mkuu, akauya na nyuma.But Jesus let out a loud cry and breathed His last.

38Nee pazia kuu da Nyumba ya Muungu dikatatuka ntii mbii kulawa uwanga hadi asi.And the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom.

39Mkuu wa maasikai ekuwaye kagooka hemeso ya mhamba wa Yesu, ekuonaho Yesu kauya na nyuma kwa namna iyo, akamba kwei mntu uyu nekawa Mwana wa Muungu.When the centurion standing there in front of Jesus saw how He had breathed His last, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God!”

40Wawa aho wavyee wekukauwao kwa hae gatigati yao nee ni Maliamu Magidalena na Salome na Maliamu mami yakwe Yakobo mvunawe da Yusufu.And there were also women watching from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salome.

41Awa ne wambasa Yesu ekuwaho Galilaya na kumwambiza. Nekuwa na wavyee watuhu wangi na wangi wekwezao Yelusalemu hamwe nae.These women had followed Jesus and ministered to Him while He was in Galilee, and there were many other women who had come up to Jerusalem with Him.

42Kisingi cha guoni ne kibua kae, na iyo neiwa msi wa maandaiyo yani msi uongoao Msi wa Kuhumwiiza.Now it was already evening. Since it was Preparation Day (that is, the day before the Sabbath),

43Aho akeza Yusufu mwenyezi wa Alimatayo ne ni mntu wa Baaza kuu da Wayahudi, mtunywa muno. Yee pia nee akakauwiya kweza kwa Useuta wa Muungu. Nee aita kwa Pilato kwesiho kumwogoha, akamwombeza ekhigwe mwii wa Yesu.Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent Council member who himself was waiting for the kingdom of God, boldly went to Pilate to ask for the body of Jesus.

44Pilato akahondomaa ekusikiaho kuwa Yesu kabindiikia kae kuuya na nyuma. Nee akamwetanga mkuu wa maasikai na kumuuza ati Yesu kauya kae na nyuma mwandoose.Pilate was surprised to hear that Jesus was already dead, so he summoned the centurion to ask if this was so.

45Pilato ekwembigwaho na uyo mkuu wa maasikai Yesu kauya kae na nyuma, akamkunda Yusufu adoe mwii wakwe.When Pilate had confirmed it with the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.

46Aho Yusufu akagua sanda, akauseeza asi uwo mwii akauvungavunga sanda. Akauwiika mwe mbia dekuwado digosolwa kwe iwe cha ukuu naho akatongoosa iwe kuu hemeso ya uvi.So Joseph bought a linen cloth, took down the body of Jesus, wrapped it in the cloth, and placed it in a tomb that had been cut out of the rock. Then he rolled a stone against the entrance to the tomb.

47Na Maliamu Magidalena na Maliamu mami yakwe da Yusufu wakahaona aho ekugonezwaho.Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joseph saw where His body was placed.
