Mark 14 (DOV) · Opened

1Lino kakutanasika mazuba abili kuya kupobwe lyakwindilila alyamikamu bwachinkwa chitakwe bumena. Mupati wabapayizi abalembi bakalangula inzila isisikene kuti ngabalamujata biyeni Jesu akumujaya.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.

2Nkambo balikwamba kuti “kutabi muchindi chapobwe, kuti kutabi kunyongana akati kabantu”“But not during the feast,” they said, “or there may be a riot among the people.”

3Lino Jesu kalimu Bbetani mun'anda ya Sayimoni sichinsenda, kachili mukulya atafula, mwanakazi wakasika kulinguwe amunkuli watununkilizyo tudula loko, ooyo wakali wanadi. Wakapwaya munkuli akutila nadi amutwe wakwe.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.

4Pesi kuli bamwi bakabijilwa. Bakambuzyana akati kabo kabati, “Wanyonywedanzi?Some of those present, however, expressed their indignation to one another: “Why this waste of perfume?

5Tununkilizyo otu tweelede kuuzigwa ikwiinda myaanda itatu yamaseleni ikapegwe bachete”. Mpawo wakamukasya.It could have been sold for over three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor.” And they scolded her.

6Pesi Jesu wakati, “Amumusiye alikke. Mumukatazizyanzi? Wandichitila chintu chibotu.But Jesus said, “Leave her alone; why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful deed to Me.

7Bachete mulaabo kaale lyoonse, kufumbwa chindi nimwayanda mulakonzya kubachitila kabotu, tamukoyooba andime lyoonse pe. Wachita eecho nchakoonzya.The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them whenever you want. But you will not always have Me.

8Wananika kale mubili wangu kuti ukazikwe.She has done what she could to anoint My body in advance of My burial.

9Ndamwambila kasimpe kuti, kufumbwa makani mabotu nkwayookambawukwa munyika yoonse, eechi nchachita mwanakazi ooyu chinowambuulwa, mukumuyeya”.And truly I tell you, wherever the gospel is preached in all the world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.”

10Mpawo Judasi Isikkaliyoti umwi balikkumi ababili wakaya kubapayizi kuti akamupede kuli mbabo.Then Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Jesus to them.

11Lino bapayizi bapati nibamvwa oobo, bakabotelwa akumusyomezya kuti apege mali. Wakatalika kuyandula mweenya wakumupeda kuli mbabo.They were delighted to hear this, and they promised to give him money. So Judas began to look for an opportunity to betray Jesus.

12Mubuzuba butaanzi bwachinkwa chitakwe bumena, lino nibakapayizya kabelele kapobwe lyakundilila, basikwiiya bakati kuli nguwe, “Nkokuli nkuyanda kuti tukabambilile kuti ukalye chakulya chapobwe lyakwindilila?”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?”

13Wakatuma basikwiiya babili akubaambila kuti, “Kamuya mugunzi, eelyo muyooswanana amwalumi unyampwide munkuli wameenda mumutobele.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,

14Ooko nkwayojinka mun'anda mukamutobele mukati kuli munan'and, 'Muyisi wati, “Ilikuli yangu n'anda yabeenzu ooko nkundiyolinda ipobwe lyakwindilila abasikwiya bangu?”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?’

15Uyomutondezya n'anda mpati yamujulu ibambidwe kabotu. Mukatubambilile mumo”.And he will show you a large upper room, furnished and ready. Make preparations for us there.”

16Mpawo basikwiya bakazwa bayinka mumunzi. Lino bakazijana zyoonse mbuli mbakabambila, eelyo bakambilila chakulya chapobwe lyakwindilila.So the disciples left and went into the city, where they found everything as Jesus had described. And they prepared the Passover.

17Nikwakaba golezya, wakaza abali kkumi ababili.When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve.

18Aawo nibakali yeeme atafula akulya, Jesu wakati kasimpe ndamwambila kuti umwi wanu ngundilikulya aawe uyonduuzya.And while they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, one of you who is eating with Me will betray Me.”

19Mpawo boonse bakawusaloko, alimwi awumwi wakati kuli nguwe, “Masimpe tensi ndime pe?”They began to be grieved and to ask Him one after another, “Surely not I?”

20Jesu wakasandula wakati kuli mbabo, “Nguumwi wabali kkumi ababili, ooyu wazwa kunika chinkwa lino mundido andime?”He answered, “It is one of the Twelve—the one who is dipping his hand into the bowl with Me.

21Aboobo Mwana waMuntu uyoyinka mbuli mbukulembedwe atala anguwe. Pesi maawe kulooyo muntu wachitya kuti Mwana aMuntu awuzigwe chali kubota kumntu ooyo natakazyalwa”.The Son of Man will go just as it is written about Him, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed! It would be better for him if he had not been born.”

22Aawo nibakachili kulya Jesu wakabweza chinkwa, wachilongezya, akuchikwamuna. Wabapa akwamba kuti, “Mubeze eechi ngumubili wangu”.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.”

23Alimwi wakabweza nkomechi, wapa kulumba, akukapa, eelyo bakanywa boonse.Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it.

24Wakati kuli mbabo, “Oobu mbubulowa bwangu bwachizuminano, bulowa butilwa baangi”He said to them, “This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many.

25Kasimpe ndamwambila kuti, nsikoyonywa limbi e ooyu muchelo wamasansa kusikila buzuba oobo nindiyoonywa mubwami bwaLeza”.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.”

26Mpawo nibakali kwiimba lwiimbo, bakazwa baya kuchilundu chaOlivisi.And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

27Jesu wakati kuli mbabo, “Moonse muyoowa, mbuuli mbukulembedwe, 'Ndiyowuma mwembeli butanga buyomwayika'.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.’

28Pesi kandili ndabuka, ndilamwindila kunembo kuya kuGalili”.But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”

29Pita wakateedi, “Nikuba kuti boonse bawa pesi mebo pe”.Peter declared, “Even if all fall away, I never will.”

30Jesu wakati kulinguwe, “Kasimpe ndakwambila, sunu iyii, mbubo busiku oobuno mukombwe kutana kokolika tubili uyondikaka tutatu.“Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “this very night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.”

31Lino Pita wakati kuti kandeleede kufa ayebo, mezyo chikozyene.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.

32Bakasika kubusena butegwa Gesemane, mpawo Jesu wakati kuli basikwiya bakwe, “Amukkale aawo nenchiya kukukomba”.Then they came to a place called Gethsemane, and Jesus told His disciples, “Sit here while I pray.”

33Wakabweza Pita, Jemusi a Joni, winka aabo, watalika kulilya akulikataazya.He took with Him Peter, James, and John, and began to be deeply troubled and distressed.

34Wakati kuli mbabo, “Muuya wangu wawusa loko, nikuba kusika kulufu. Muchaale aawa kamulindide”Then He said to them, “My soul is consumed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch.”

35Kabachiya kunembo, Jesu wakawida aansi akukomba kuti nichali kukonzeka chiindi echi chimwiinde.Going a little farther, He fell to the ground and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour would pass from Him.

36Wakati, “Abba, Taata, kuti nduwe zintu zyoonse zilakonzeka. Gwisya nkomechi eeyi kuli ndime pesi kutabi kuyanda kwangu pe, asi kwako”.“Abba, Father,” He said, “all things are possible for You. Take this cup from Me. Yet not what I will, but what You will.”

37Wakaboola, wakajana baloona, mpawo wakati kuli Pita, “Sayimoni, muloona na? Tamukonzyi kulindila hola lyomwe?Then Jesus returned and found them sleeping. “Simon, are you asleep?” He asked. “Were you not able to keep watch for one hour?

38Mulindile akukomba kuti mutanjili mukusunkwa.Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”

39Lino wakazwa lwabili wakukomba majwi ngawonya.Again He went away and prayed, saying the same thing.

40Nakaboola lubo wakajana balokoona, nkambo meso aabo akali alema. Tebakaziba chakwamba kuli nguwe.And again Jesus returned and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy. And they did not know what to answer Him.

41Wakaza kachitatu wakati kulimbabo, “Muchili koona na? Kwazulila! Chindi chasika. Amulange! Mwana aMuntu uli kuziigwa mumaanza abasizibi.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.

42Munyampuke; tweende. Amulange, sikunduuzya waba afwifwi.”Rise, let us go. See, My betrayer is approaching!”

43Kachili kwambula, Judasi, umwi wabali kkumi ababili wakasika, ankamu mpati kabajisi mapanga amasumu, kuzwa kubapati babapayizi, abalembi, abaalu.While Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived, accompanied by a crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests, scribes, and elders.

44Lino sikumuuzya wakapa chitondeezyo, wati, “Ooyo ngundiyomyonta ngonguwe. Amumujate mumtole atamuchiji pe.”Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The One I kiss is the man; arrest Him and lead Him away securely.”

45Awo Judasi nakasika, mpawoawo wakaya kuli Jesu wati, “Muyisi!” Akumumyonta.Going directly to Jesus, he said, “Rabbi!” and kissed Him.

46Mpawo bakabikka maboko alinguwe bamwaanga.Then the men seized Jesus and arrested Him.

47Pesi umwi wababo bakalimvwi wakasomona ipanga wakakwazula akudunsula kutwi kwamuzike wamupayizi mupati.And one of the bystanders drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear.

48Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Mwaza mbuli muyanda sikubba, amapanga, amasumu kuzondijata?Jesus asked the crowd, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me as you would an outlaw?

49Aboobo ndali anywebo mazuba woonse akuyisya mun'anda yaLeza, temwakandisunga pe. Pesi eechi chachitika kuti malembe azuzikizigwe”.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.”

50Boonse mbakali aabo Jesu bakamusiya akumuchija.Then everyone deserted Him and fled.

51Mwalumi munini, wakali samide mulembo luzutu uteentema ngwakali lipopode wakali kutobela Jesu.One young man who had been following Jesus was wearing a linen cloth around his body. They caught hold of him,

52Lino baalumi nibakamwanga wakasiya mulembo uteentema wachija kali chintanda.but he pulled free of the linen cloth and ran away naked.

53Bakatola Jesu kumupayizi mupati. Bamubunganina bapayizi bapati, abaalu abalembi.They led Jesus away to the high priest, and all the chief priests, elders, and scribes assembled.

54Lino Pita wakali buya butobela kulaale kulubaya kwamupayizi mupati wakakkala akati kabalindizi bakali afwifwi amulilo kuti akasalilwe.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.

55Lino bapati babapayizi ankuta yoonse yaba Juda yakali kuyandula bukamboni bubi kuchita kuti bamutole kulufu. Pesi tebakabujana pe.Now the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, but they did not find any.

56Eelyo biingi bakaleta bukamboni bwakubeja atala aanguwe, pesi bukamboni obu tebwali kuzuminina pe.For many bore false witness against Jesus, but their testimony was inconsistent.

57Bamwi bakayima akupa bukamboni bwakubeja atala anguwe; Kabati,”Then some men stood up and testified falsely against Him:

58Twakamumvwa kati, 'Ndiyomwaya n'anda yaLeza yakwa amaanza, mukati kwamazuba atatu ndiyoyiyaka imbi itachitwi amaanza”.“We heard Him say, ‘I will destroy this man-made temple, and in three days I will build another that is made without hands.’”

59Nikuba boobo bukamboni bwabo tebwakazumina pe.But even their testimony was inconsistent.

60Mupayizi Mupati wakayimikila akati kabo wabuzya Jesu, “Tujisi nsandulo na? Ninzi eezi aaba balumi nzibapeda bukamboni atala anduwe?”So the high priest stood up before them and questioned Jesus, “Have You no answer? What are these men testifying against You?”

61Asi we wakawumuna takwe nakasandula chintu pe. Alubo mupayizi mupati wakati wakamubuzya kuti, “Nduwe Kkilisito, Mwana wawulongezedwe?”But Jesus remained silent and made no reply. Again the high priest questioned Him, “Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?”

62Jesu wakati, “Ndime! alimwi muyoomubona Mwana aMuntu ulikkede kululyo lwaluboko lwasinguzu akuboola amayoba akujulu.”“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.”

63Mupayizi mupati wakadelula zisamo mpawo wati, “Sa tuchiyanda bukamboni?At this, the high priest tore his clothes and declared, “Why do we need any more witnesses?

64Mwamvwa mbwamba chisapi. Muzeezo wanu ngwakutyeni?” Mpawo bakamupa mulandu welela lufu.You have heard the blasphemy. What is your verdict?” And they all condemned Him as deserving of death.

65Bamwi bakatalika kumuswida mate akumuvumba busyu akumunabba akwamba kuti kuli nguwe, “Sinsima!” Basolooli bakamubweza akumuuma.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.

66Eelyo Pita kachili munsi alubaya umwi wabalanda basimbi bamupayizi mupati wakaza kuli nguwe.While Peter was in the courtyard below, one of the servant girls of the high priest came down

67Nakabona Pita kali kuyota mulilo, wakalangisisya akwamba kuti, “Mwakali aamwi a Jesu muNazaleta”.and saw him warming himself there. She looked at Peter and said, “You also were with Jesus the Nazarene.”

68Pesi wakakaka akwamba kuti tandimuzi pe nikuba kumvwa atala anzinokwambuula anzizyo”. Lino wakazwa waya anze aamulyango. Alimwi malembe achindi alawungizya. Mpawo mukombwe wakokolika.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.

69Pesi mulanda musimbi wakamubona mpawo watalika kwamba lubo kuti aabo balimwi mpawo, “Ooyu mwalumi nguumwi wabo!”There the servant girl saw him and again said to those standing nearby, “This man is one of them.”

70Lino wakakaka alubo. Nikwakayinda chindi chinini aabo bakalimvwi aawo bakati kuli Pita, kasimpe nduwe umwi wabo, nkambo alako uli muna Galiliyeni.”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.”

71Mukombwe mpawawo wakakokolika kachibili. Mpawo Pita wakayeeya majwi aaJesu ngakamwambila:But he began to curse and swear, “I do not know this man of whom you speak!”

72“Mukombwe kutana kukokolika kachibili, uyondikaka tutatu” alimwi wakawusa akulila.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.
