1A nì baaŋ a kaŋ yifa ka bə liə i Dzini bi Ntsədaŋ bəh bi Blɛd wə bə ka jiə dəkə dzɔɔŋ yɛiŋ. Bətii mfə gia bəmbum bəh bəni bə̀ bɔ laniki bənchi bə Nyɔ ka nəŋki dzəh yi wɛlini yə bɔ ni kwa Jisɔs yɛiŋ i wɔɔ.Now the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread were two days away, and the chief priests and scribes were looking for a covert way to arrest Jesus and kill Him.

2Bɔ jiə ja a bɔ bɔ a, “Kiə bukumbɛiŋ ki mɔ̂m kə gia yələ i jɔbi wə bə fəki Dzini biələ yɛiŋ, kɔm bukumbɛiŋ ka mɔm yi, ma yi ni dzə bəh ŋgəkə i bəni kintəəŋ.”“But not during the feast,” they said, “or there may be a riot among the people.”

3Jɔbi wə Jisɔs nì kɔ i Bɛtani, i kwili wi Samɔn wə wi nì yisi kɔ mi wi kumyini, bɔ nì kɔ fɛiŋ bɔ dzi wə, miŋkpaŋa widɔkɔ dza liə dzə bəh finsɔkɔ fi fiaŋsi fidɔkɔ a num bi tsɛŋə yindzɔŋni.

Si wi liə, ka bwiŋ dzaka ki finsɔkɔ fiwɔ shuku fiaŋsi biwɔ i fwu wi Jisɔs wə.While Jesus was in Bethany reclining at the table in the home of Simon the Leper, a woman came with an alabaster jar of expensive perfume, made of pure nard. She broke open the jar and poured it on Jesus’ head.

4Bəni bədɔkɔ bə̀ bɔ nì kɔ fɛiŋ yisi i shwiŋyiki dzakayi a, “Wi bəkəliki fiaŋsi biələ kilɔlɔ kɔm nə lə?Some of those present, however, expressed their indignation to one another: “Why this waste of perfume?

6Ayakalə, Jisɔs dzaka i bɔ a, “Mbɛiŋ bêe wi mɔŋ. Mbɛiŋ nyaki ŋgəkə i wi kɔm nə? Wi fə num gia yindzɔŋni i mih.But Jesus said, “Leave her alone; why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful deed to Me.

10Judas Iskaliɔt wə wi nì kɔ mi i mbaŋ wi bwa bə Jisɔs bə̀ jwɔfi ntsɔ bəfa, ka nyə tsə yɛiŋ bətii mfə gia bəmbum taŋni Jisɔs i bɔ.Then Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Jesus to them.

11Jɔbi wə bɔ nì wɔkɔ yaka bɔ laŋ nalə, ka kaka wi a bɔ ni nya lə wi bəh kpɔ. Wi yisi i nəŋki dzəh yə wi ni nya Jisɔs yɛiŋ i bɔ kaŋ.They were delighted to hear this, and they promised to give him money. So Judas began to look for an opportunity to betray Jesus.

12A dzə num i chɔkɔ bi ninshiŋ i Dzini bi Blɛd wə bə ka jiə dəkə dzɔɔŋ yɛiŋ, biə bə si kum waiŋ jaka i Dzini bi Ntsədaŋ biwɔ wə. I fɛiŋ wə bwa bə Jisɔs bə mbaŋ bikə i wi a, “Wɔ nəŋki a buku tsə kɛiŋsi faiŋ di biə bə ni dzi Dzini bi Ntsədaŋ yɛiŋ a?”On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover lamb was to be sacrificed, Jesus’ disciples asked Him, “Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?”

13Wi ka faaŋ bwa bu bə mbaŋ bədɔkɔ bəfa, dzaka i bɔ a, “Mbɛiŋ lîə tsə̂ i kwili wə, mbɛiŋ ni baŋsi lə bə mi num wi bəkə kpəŋə wi mwi, mbɛiŋ bîəli wi.So He sent two of His disciples and told them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jug of water will meet you. Follow him,

14Jɔbi wə wi ni tsə liə, juŋ yə wi liə yɛiŋ, mbɛiŋ dzâka i tii juŋ wiwɔ a, Mi wi Lanini bikəki a lum wi juŋ yi bəni bə dzəni kɔ faiŋ ka bɔ bwa bu bə mbaŋ num dzi Dzini bi Ntsədaŋ yɛiŋ a?and whichever house he enters, say to the owner, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is My guest room, where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?’

16Bwa bu bə mbaŋ bə̀ ka nyə tsə i kwili kintəəŋ, tsə yɛiŋ biɛiŋ bichi num a liŋ asi Jisɔs si dzaka i bɔ. Bɔ ka kɛiŋsi biɛiŋ bi Dzini bi Ntsədaŋ fɛiŋ.So the disciples left and went into the city, where they found everything as Jesus had described. And they prepared the Passover.

17A dzə num i fijɔbi, Jisɔs bəh bwa bu bə mbaŋ bə̀ jwɔfi ntsɔ bəfa juŋni fɛiŋ.When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve.

18Jɔbi wə bɔ nì num kuku ka dziki, Jisɔs yisi i dzakaki i bɔ a, “Mih fukuki ŋkɔŋ i mbɛiŋ a, mi widɔkɔ i mbɛiŋ kintəəŋ ni taŋni lə mih, mi wiwɔ kɔlə fa wi dzi buku wi.”And while they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, one of you who is eating with Me will betray Me.”

19Si bɔ wɔkɔ yakadəiŋ, ka numki a nshɛiŋ nshɛiŋ, bɔ bə́ bikə i wi a wimu wimu a, “Akɔ mih ma?”They began to be grieved and to ask Him one after another, “Surely not I?”

20Wi chukuli i bɔ a, “Akɔ a mi i mbɛiŋ bələ jwɔfi ntsɔ bəfa kintəəŋ a num wə buku wi ni chiŋni n'yɔkɔ blɛd i tasa mə.He answered, “It is one of the Twelve—the one who is dipping his hand into the bowl with Me.

21Mi wə yɛli wi kɔ Waiŋmi kaŋaki i bi nyə̂ asi bə nì nyaka kɔm wi. Ayakalə, ŋgəkə wimbum kɔ i mi wə wi taŋni mi wə yɛli wi kɔ Waiŋmi.

22Asi bɔ nì dziki, Jisɔs dza dzɔ blɛd, nya kiyɔŋni i Nyɔ, gbɛyi, nya i bwa bu bə mbaŋ ka dzaka i bɔ a, “Mbɛiŋ kɔ̂, a fa kɔ gwu yiŋ.”While they were eating, Jesus took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, saying, “Take it; this is My body.”

23Wi ka dzɔ tə bwam, nya kiyɔŋni i Nyɔ, ka nya bwam wiwɔ bɔ bəchi mu fiəli.Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it.

24Wi ka dzaka i bɔ a, “Mələ kɔ mwa məŋŋ mə Nyɔ dzi miŋkaiŋ bəh mɔ, mɔ shuku buku kɔm bəni bəduli.He said to them, “This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many.

25Mih fukuki ŋkɔŋ i mbɛiŋ a, mih ni chu mu kə mbih mi kpɛiŋ wi laani wələ i tsə buku i chɔkɔ biə mih bi muki mɔ mimfiaŋ i kintəəŋ ki ntɔŋ bi Nyɔ wə.”Truly I tell you, I will no longer drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it anew in the kingdom of God.”

26Jɔbi wə Jisɔs bəh bwa bu bə mbaŋ kaasi, bɔ yəəŋ njaŋ wi kɔksini, buku ka yaka tsə i ŋkwuŋ wi Kɛiŋ yi Ɔlif wə.And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

27Jisɔs ka dzaka i bɔ a, “Mbɛiŋ bəchi ni fiəni gɛiŋ chu lə i jum wə kɔm gia yə yi ni num bəh mih. Yi num asi bə nyaka a, Nyɔ dzakaki a, ‘Mih ni wɔɔ lə ntɔkni shwáŋ ma shwáŋ yiwɔ ni gaali.’Then Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away, for it is written: ‘I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’

28Ayakalə, jɔbi wə Nyɔ bi dzasi mih i kpi wə, mih bi tsə i mbɛiŋ nshiŋ i Galili.”But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”

29Bita chukuli i wi a, “Kɔŋ Bəni bəchi gɛiŋ chu i jum wə, mih kɔkə ni mɔm i fiəni.”Peter declared, “Even if all fall away, I never will.”

30Jisɔs fiəni chukuli i wi a, “Mih fukuki ŋkɔŋ i wɔ a, daiŋ nchɔkɔ, na ka kwɔkɔ ni tɔŋki kiŋkani kifa, num wɔ məŋni lɔ mih kiŋkani kitali.”“Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “this very night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.”

31Bita baaŋ a dzakaki a dzakani a, “Kɔŋ mih ni numki i kpi buku wɔ, mih kɔkə i ni lansi nəiŋ wɔ.” Si wi dzaka yaka, bədɔkɔ bə̀ bəchi bɔŋ dzaka ayaka tə.But Peter kept insisting, “Even if I have to die with You, I will never deny You.” And all the others said the same thing.

32Bɔ dza tsə sə i di bidɔkɔ wə, bə ni bɔɔŋki a Gɛsɛmane, Jisɔs ka dzaka i bwa bu bə mbaŋ a, “Mbɛiŋ shînumyi fa, mih kini tsə tsa.”Then they came to a place called Gethsemane, and Jesus told His disciples, “Sit here while I pray.”

33Wi ka dzɔ Bita bəh Jɛm bəh Jɔn, bəh bɔ tsə sə fɛiŋ. Wi dza ka kwakaki gia yiwɔ yi fumsi wi, shɔm yi nya ŋgəkə i wi.He took with Him Peter, James, and John, and began to be deeply troubled and distressed.

34Wi ka dzaka i bɔ a, “Shɔm yiŋ kɔ a bəh nshɛiŋ nshɛiŋ nalə na ka mih kpi num kpini. Mbɛiŋ bâaŋ a fa bukumbɛiŋ wɔ̂kɔliki.”Then He said to them, “My soul is consumed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch.”

35Si wi dzaka yakadəiŋ, ka kini tsə i ninshiŋ, gbɔ i kuku, bə́ tsa a, dzəh kabə num wɔ fə ma jɔbi wi ŋgəkə wələ tsə daŋsi wi.Going a little farther, He fell to the ground and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour would pass from Him.

36Wi ka tsa a, “Abba, Ba wuŋ, gia yichi bɔniki lə i wɔ i fə. Dzɔ̂ bwîli bwam wi ŋgəkə wələ i mih wə. Ayakalə, ma yi num asi wɔ kɔŋki. Kɔbi si mih kɔŋki.”“Abba, Father,” He said, “all things are possible for You. Take this cup from Me. Yet not what I will, but what You will.”

37Wi fiəni dzə buku i bɔ wə, ka ti bɔ nɔ wə. Wi bikə i Samɔn a, “Yi kɔ a mbɛiŋ kɔkə i num bɛiŋ bəh mih i tsə buku i mbiəŋə wimu wə a?Then Jesus returned and found them sleeping. “Simon, are you asleep?” He asked. “Were you not able to keep watch for one hour?

38Mbɛiŋ tsə̂ŋəki, mbɛiŋ tsâ a kiə kimɔmsi ki dzə kə i mbɛiŋ wə. Yi kɔ ŋkɔŋ a shɔm kɔŋki lə, ayakalə nyam yi gwu bɔhyi.”Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”

39Si wi dzaka yakadəiŋ chu fiəni tsə i tsa, ka tsaki a gia yə wi si yisi tsa.Again He went away and prayed, saying the same thing.

40Si wi ni fiəni dzə, ka chu ti bwa bu bə mbaŋ nɔ wə kɔm kinu nì kɔ i dzə́kəh yibɔ wə nalə. Ayaka bɔ nəki kiə kə gia yə bɔ kɔ i chukuli.And again Jesus returned and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy. And they did not know what to answer Him.

41Wi chu fiəni dzə i kiŋkani kitali wə, bikə i bɔ a, “Mbɛiŋ kɛiŋki mbɛiŋ nɔ a nɔni waka fimbɛiŋ a? Yi dzə kpɛiŋ i liə. Jɔbi wiwɔ dzə kpɛiŋ. Bə kɔ bə taŋni lɔ mi wə yɛli wi kɔ Waiŋmi i kaŋ yi bəni bəchu wə.When Jesus returned the third time, He said, “Are you still sleeping and resting? That is enough! The hour has come. Look, the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

42Mbɛiŋ dzâ bɛiŋ bukumbɛiŋ tsə̂ki. Mbɛiŋ tsɛ̂iŋ, mi wə wi taŋni mih bə wi yaka wi dzə.”Rise, let us go. See, My betrayer is approaching!”

43Asi Jisɔs nì kɛiŋki wi dzaka, akisəkə Judas wə wi nì kɔ mi i mbaŋ wi bwa bə Jisɔs bə̀ jwɔfi ntsɔ bəfa dzə tumbuku.

44A nì kɔ num mi wə wi taŋni Jisɔs, tsə kɛiŋsi lɔ kinchəsi bəh bəni bəwɔ ka dzaka a, “Mi wə mih ni bɔni, mih maŋni yaŋyi, akɔ wi mbɛiŋ ni kwâ, mbɛiŋ tɔ̂kniki ka wi ma gɛ̂iŋ.”Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The One I kiss is the man; arrest Him and lead Him away securely.”

45Si Judas dzaka yaka, akisəkə ka nyə tsə i Jisɔs wə, bɔni wi a, “Mi wi Lanini.” Si wi bɔni yaka, bə́ maŋni wi yaŋyi.Going directly to Jesus, he said, “Rabbi!” and kissed Him.

46Bəni bəwɔ ka kwa kaŋa Jisɔs.Then the men seized Jesus and arrested Him.

47Mi widɔkɔ wə wi nì kɔ bɔ bəh Jisɔs ka guku baa nywɔ wi jum, gba chwiŋ təiŋ kintuni ki mfa wi fwu wi bətii mfə gia yɛiŋ, ki təiŋ.And one of the bystanders drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear.

48Jisɔs bikə i bəni bəwɔ a, “Mbɛiŋ dzə i kwa mih ka dzəki bəh bənywɔ tasi bəh bibɔkɔ ka mbɛiŋ dzəki i kwa num ji a?Jesus asked the crowd, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me as you would an outlaw?

49Mih nì shi kɔ bəh mbɛiŋ chɔksi chɔksi i juŋ yi fəni yi gia mə, lani bəni, mbɛiŋ na dzə kwa mih. Ayakalə, yələ num lə ka gia yə bə nì nyaka i Kiŋwakti ki Nyɔ wə ni dzə kpɛiŋ.”Every day I was with you, teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest Me. But this has happened that the Scriptures would be fulfilled.”

50Bwa bə Jisɔs bə mbaŋ bəchi sɛiŋ bee wi fɛiŋ ka gɛiŋ bəchi.Then everyone deserted Him and fled.

51Ayaka waiŋ sumi widɔkɔ bə́ biəli wi, maka wi lɔh fiɛŋ fidɔkɔ i gwu yi wə, a num shəŋ a tsɛiŋ yi mbuŋ i gwu yi wə. Bɔ tsə i kwa tə wi,One young man who had been following Jesus was wearing a linen cloth around his body. They caught hold of him,

52Wi shwa bee tsə mbuŋ wiwɔ, ka yɔkɔ gɛiŋ bəh chwɔŋ kiyəə.but he pulled free of the linen cloth and ran away naked.

53Bɔ ka dzɔ Jisɔs, tsə bəh wi i fwu wi bətii mfə gia wə. Bətii mfə gia bəmbum bəh bəni bə̀ bɔ sakaki tumi bəh bəni bə̀ bɔ laniki bənchi bɔ juŋni fɛiŋ.They led Jesus away to the high priest, and all the chief priests, elders, and scribes assembled.

54Bɔ nyə bəh Jisɔs, Bita biəli i jum wə i dzəh yi dəəŋ. Wi tsə buku na i tɔkɔ wi fwu wi bətii mfə gia wə, ka shinum bəh bəni bə̀ bɔ nì chəniki kwili wiwɔ ka jɔkɔki gbuku.Peter followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. And he sat with the officers and warmed himself by the fire.

55I fɛiŋ wə bətii mfə gia bəmbum bəh bəni bəchi bə̀ bɔ sakaki bənsaka bə́ nəŋ gia yə bɔ ki jiəki i Jisɔs fuŋ, ka bɔ ni wɔɔ wi. Ayakalə, bɔ nəki kwati kə gia yidɔkɔ.Now the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, but they did not find any.

56Bəni bəduli ka beeŋki nsaka wi ntəkə i jum wə kɔm Jisɔs. Ayakalə, bəndzaka bəbɔ nì kɔ chi chi bɔ na kwati dzəh yə bə kɔ i wɔɔ wi.For many bore false witness against Jesus, but their testimony was inconsistent.

57Bəni bədɔkɔ dza numbɛiŋ, ka beeŋki nsaka wi ntəkə i wi fuŋ dzaka a,Then some men stood up and testified falsely against Him:

58“Buku ni wɔkɔ wi dzaka a ŋgaiŋ ni shakyi lə juŋ yi fəni yi gia yələ mi wiwɔm maa, ma ŋgaiŋ dzɔ kaŋ yitali i fiəni maa yə aka maa dəkə mi wiwɔm.”“We heard Him say, ‘I will destroy this man-made temple, and in three days I will build another that is made without hands.’”

59Na si bɔ nì dzakaki yakadəiŋ, bəndzaka bəbɔ nì kɔ chi chi bɔ na kwati dzəh yə bə kɔ i wɔɔ wi.But even their testimony was inconsistent.

60Fwu wi bətii mfə gia wiwɔ ka dza numbɛiŋ i bɔ nshiŋ, ka bikə i Jisɔs a, “Yaka wɔ kaŋaki kə gia i chukuli i gia yə bəni bələ dzakaki kɔm wɔ a?”So the high priest stood up before them and questioned Jesus, “Have You no answer? What are these men testifying against You?”

61Ayakalə, Jisɔs kpichumi mɔŋ, nəki chukuli kə. Fwu wi bətii mfə gia wiwɔ chu bikə i Jisɔs a, “Akɔ wɔ Kimbwili wə Nyɔ nì kaka, Waiŋ Nyɔ wə bə kɔksiki a?”But Jesus remained silent and made no reply. Again the high priest questioned Him, “Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?”

62Jisɔs chukuli a, “Akɔ mih. Mbɛiŋ ni yɛiŋ lə mi wə yɛli wi kɔ Waiŋmi num wi shinum i tsɛiŋ yiləkəli yi Wi wə wi kaŋaki Ŋga, mbɛiŋ chu fiəni yɛiŋ si wi shiki dzəki i bɛiŋ i bikwu wə.”“I am,” said Jesus, “and you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power and coming with the clouds of heaven.”

63I fɛiŋ wə fwu wi bətii mfə gia wɔkɔ yaka, ka taŋyi bəmbuŋ i gwu yi wə, bikə a, “Bukumbɛiŋ nəŋki i chu wɔkɔ a nə, num wi dzaka kaasi lɔ gia yichi a?At this, the high priest tore his clothes and declared, “Why do we need any more witnesses?

64Mbɛiŋ wɔkɔ alə si wi dzɔki di bi Nyɔ a? Mbɛiŋ dzaka yimbɛiŋ a nə?” Bəni bəchi təiŋ a wi kɔ mi ka bə wɔɔ num wɔɔni.You have heard the blasphemy. What is your verdict?” And they all condemned Him as deserving of death.

65Bəni bədɔkɔ yisi i chuhyiki mindzəŋ i Jisɔs wə, kaŋa baŋ dzə́kəh yi, ka twɛiŋki wi bikə i wi a, fuku mi wə wi twɛiŋ wɔ, “Fuku la ntum wi Nyɔ wa wə i liə.” Bəni bə jum yisi i nyiksiki Jisɔs twɛiŋ.Then some of them began to spit on Him. They blindfolded Him, struck Him with their fists, and said to Him, “Prophesy!” And the officers received Him with slaps in His face.

66Si Bita nì kɔ num wi num i kimbu ki dzəshi ki tɔkɔ wə, waiŋkpaŋni widɔkɔ wə wi nì nɔmki i kwili wi tii mfə gia wə, dza kɔmsi dzə i Bita wə.While Peter was in the courtyard below, one of the servant girls of the high priest came down

67Si wi yɛiŋ Bita wi jɔkɔki gbuku, wi tsɛiŋ wi lə tulululu, ka dzaka a, “Wɔ tə si kɔlə mbɛiŋ bəh Jisɔs wi Nasali wəyaka.”and saw him warming himself there. She looked at Peter and said, “You also were with Jesus the Nazarene.”

68Bita nəiŋ, ka dzaka a, “Mih kiəki kə gia yə wɔ dzakaki yaka. Mih kiəki kə.” Si wi dzaka yakadəiŋ, nyə fɛiŋ ka tsə i dzaka ki mbaiŋ wə, kwɔkɔ ka tɔŋ.But he denied it. “I do not know or even understand what you are talking about,” he said. Then he went out to the gateway, and the rooster crowed.

69Jɔbi wə waiŋkpaŋni wə nì chu yɛiŋ wi, dzaka i bəni bə̀ bɔ ni numyi fɛiŋ a, “Mi wələ kɔ mi i bɔ wə.”There the servant girl saw him and again said to those standing nearby, “This man is one of them.”

70Bita chu nəiŋ. A i jɔbi wi twɛsi wə, bəni bə̀ bɔ ni numyi fɛiŋ bɔ chu dzaka i Bita a, “I yi ŋkɔŋ wə akɔ mbɛiŋ bɔ, kɔm wɔ kɔ tə mi wi Galili.”But he denied it again. After a little while, those standing nearby said once more to Peter, “Surely you are one of them, for you too are a Galilean.”

71Bita ka kaiŋ, bɔɔŋ num lɔiŋ i fwu wi wə i dzaka a, “Mih kiəki kə mi wə mbɛiŋ dzaka kɔm wi.”But he began to curse and swear, “I do not know this man of whom you speak!”

72Akisəkə kwɔkɔ chu tɔŋ i kiŋkani kifa wə. Si wi wɔkɔ yaka ka kwaka ndzaka wə Jisɔs nì dzaka i wi a, “Ka kwɔkɔ ni tɔŋki i kiŋkani kifa wə, a ni numki num wɔ nəiŋ lɔ mih i kiŋkani kitali wə.” I fɛiŋ wə, wi gbɔ mindəm ka dəki.And immediately the rooster crowed a second time. Then Peter remembered the word that Jesus had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.” And he broke down and wept.
