Luke 22 (EKA) · Opened

1Eji elkak ni bo jo li abred nya bo kil jo kak ayist ma kabbe, ni bo kpo lung re Pasova,Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread, called the Passover, was approaching,

2owo atubesi abalimajom, a atꞌtibi ba atahm jo seb mbang ana nyi bo bahke wulu Jisos. Fvfo, bo jo fꞌfahl ane.and the chief priests and scribes were looking for a way to put Jesus to death, for they feared the people.

3Ngare nyio nnehm kehm yele Judas ji bo jo lung-e re Iskariot, ji woomo go ellong abatꞌtoono Jisos, ewubu ane abal.Then Satan entered Judas Iscariot, who was one of the Twelve.

4Owo Judas kehm tahme song kpiri atubesi abalimajom, a atubesi ane ba jo baabe etahk Esowo, fere toobo a bo ana á bahke jabbe Jisos ka bo.And Judas went to discuss with the chief priests and temple officers how he might betray Jesus to them.

5Atahng yebe bo sehng, owo bo kehm taame re, bo bahk-e kake akpohko.They were delighted and agreed to give him money.

6Judas kehm taame, kehm kehme mbang seb nyi á bahke jabbe Jisos ka bo, eji ane bako ki li.Judas consented, and began to look for an opportunity to betray Jesus to them in the absence of a crowd.

7Owo efung kehm ba rehng bi elkak ni abred nya ki kpi ayist, bi bo jo wul abon ejoro ba Pasova.Then came the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb was to be sacrificed.

8Jisos kehm tongo Pita abola Jon re bo song toobo edi bum bo, ji bo bahke lehke elkak Pasova. Owo á kehm tumu bo tv.Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover.”

9Re bo kehm tahme, bo tohk-e bahb re, “Gan wo a kpꞌsebe re wahr song toobo bum?”“Where do You want us to prepare it?” they asked.

10Owo á kehm faange bo re, “Wuungen atung! Ń lꞌyel go nla ejahbe, ḿ bahke wane nne no solo etulahb. Toonen ye, song go etahk ji á bahke yange,He answered, “When you enter the city, a man carrying a jug of water will meet you. Follow him to the house he enters,

11wahn tong nfontahk re, ‘Ntꞌtibi kp-a bahbe re, Gan wo ekpꞌkpa li no, ji m bahke jehke, li elkak Pasova, a abatꞌtoono ebame?’and say to the owner of that house, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?’

12Á bahk-n tibi egburu ekpꞌkpa ajehng ji li go ero enyong ji bo ma jehke nti. Owo ḿ bahke toobo nsol kpee bum.”And he will show you a large upper room, already furnished. Make preparations there.”

13Bo kehm lohko tahm, lohko song nyehn ejum ajehng ajehng ana Jisos tongo bo, kehm toobo nsol elkak Pasova bum.So they went and found it just as Jesus had told them. And they prepared the Passover.

14Eji ngare biingi no, á kehm song ji go ekpꞌkuru, a abatiingetib ebe.When the hour had come, Jesus reclined at the table with His apostles.

15Owo á kehm tongo bo re, “Jo kor-m sehng re me n li elkak Pasova nia a nahne, kehm nyehne erem.And He said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before My suffering.

16Tibre n kp-n tongo re, N nehm kpe tiki li elkak nia, tete n li etingitingi elkak a nahne go ejahbetul Esowo.”For I tell you that I will not eat it again until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”

17Owo á kehm rodo nkob, kak Esowo saam, kehm bungu re, “Koon, wahn wo, wahn ane kpee.After taking the cup, He gave thanks and said, “Take this and divide it among yourselves.

18Tibre n kp-n tongo re, Bomo anv asongo n nehm kpe tiki wo alahb avain tete etul bi Esowo ba.”For I tell you that I will not drink of the fruit of the vine from now on until the kingdom of God comes.”

19Owo á kehm rodo ebred, kak Esowo saam, fere bakke, ka bo, kehm bungu re, “A wo li ngubjing enyame, nyi bo kp-n kake. Jo limen ana, eji ń lꞌjo buum-m.”And He took the bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body, given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.”

20Eji bo ma li nsol mal, go mbang nyꞌnehm nyi á tob ka bo nkob, fere bung re, “Nkob nyia nyi li egbanngalung ji nfenfe tib go alung emame ma kpꞌfabe ka-n.In the same way, after supper He took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is poured out for you.

21“Nyehnen, nne no kp-m gungu, á jehk a name ana go ekpꞌkuru.Look! The hand of My betrayer is with Mine on the table.

22Tibre Mmon no nne bahke kpoko ana Esowo toobo no. Eyuu a nne no kp-e gungu.”Indeed, the Son of Man will go as it has been determined, but woe to that man who betrays Him.”

23Owo bo kehm kehme elbahbe atemtem re, “Nne awo go egahre ellong no bahke limi elkohn ejum ana jia?”Then they began to question among themselves which of them was going to do this.

24Owo nfaabe kehm gboko abatꞌtoono Jisos bada nne no bo bahk-e bumu ana nne no ga gbal go bo ellong.A dispute also arose among the disciples as to which of them should be considered the greatest.

25Jisos kehm tongo bo re, “Atul ba njini nyia kpꞌkpi nsahm nyi bo kpo fili ane ebo. Atubesi ane, bo kpo lung bo re, ‘Akubi!’So Jesus declared, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those in authority over them call themselves benefactors.

26Ano sang bahke jolo go egahne. Ga nob re nne no ga gbal go egahne ellong jol ana mmonse. Ntubesi bahke jolo ana nlokeltum.But you shall not be like them. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who leads like the one who serves.

27Anv, nne awo ga gbal, nne no jehk go ekpꞌkuru, afi nne no kp-e loko wo? No jehk go ekpꞌkuru sang ga gbal? Eji n li a nahne, n li ana nlꞌloko.For who is greater, the one who reclines at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines? But I am among you as one who serves.

28“Wahn ba li ane ba ma jol a name kpee go egame elgaare.You are the ones who have stood by Me in My trials.

29Ana nsoo ma-m ka ejahbe re me n fili, ano wo fvfo m ma-n tob ka,And I bestow on you a kingdom, just as My Father has bestowed one on Me,

30eji ń lꞌjo li nsol ekpꞌkuru ajehng a name go egame ejahbetul, fere ji go nti etul, jo lam ewubu etꞌtohngo ebbal bi Israel.”so that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

31Ntul a Jisos kehm bungu re, “Saimon, nnehm sebe re á ko nsahm nyi á bahk-n febe ana bo kpo febe arasi.Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift all of you like wheat.

32Me n kak ero ka-a, eji a lꞌkꞌgbo go egama mbang. Ngare nyi a ma fere gbo ndon, jo kak abonane eko!”But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith will not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.”

33Owo Pita kehm-e faange re, “Ntul, me n toobo ebjing re me n je ngbekobo a na, jol afi elkv ni, m bahke kpoko a na.”“Lord,” said Peter, “I am ready to go with You even to prison and to death.”

34Jisos kehm bungu re, “Pita, n kp-a tongo re, Lela a bahke gbaame nkpel era re, me a nehme kahn, nkok kehm kuku.”But Jesus replied, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow today until you have denied three times that you know Me.”

35Jisos kehm bahbe bo re, “Ngare nyi n tum-n no, eji ń ki fili abon abam akpohko, fere fili abam efilibo, a akpaketa, ejum jia ji rin-n noa?” Bo kehm faange re, “Ejumjum wahr rinem.”Then Jesus asked them, “When I sent you out without purse or bag or sandals, did you lack anything?” “Nothing,” they answered.

36Jisos kehm tongo bo re, “Anv, nne no lꞌbel mmombam akpohko, afi á bele ebam efilibo, nong, á fili. Nong, nne no ki kpi ekahngkahng gungu mbomo eme, song gunu.“Now, however,” He told them, “the one with a purse should take it, and likewise a bag; and the one without a sword should sell his cloak and buy one.

37Tibre n kp-n tongo re, Edi nwer Esowo ji bungu re, ‘Bo m-e fange kak go ellong abi ane’, bahke lohko jol go etingitingi. Tibre ji bo nyono bada name bahke lohko jol go etingitingi.”For I tell you that this Scripture must be fulfilled in Me: ‘And He was numbered with the transgressors.’ For what is written about Me is reaching its fulfillment.”

38Owo abatꞌtoono ebe kehm bungu re, “Ntul, nyehn akahngkahng na abal a!” Á kehm faange bo re, “Ebgbal.”So they said, “Look, Lord, here are two swords.” “That is enough,” He answered.

39Jisos kehm lohngo tahm go ewong ji bo kpo lung re Oliv, ana á jo kono ellimi. Abatꞌtoono ebe tahm toon-e.Jesus went out as usual to the Mount of Olives, and the disciples followed Him.

40Eji á song rehng edi jio, á kehm tongo bo re, “Jo kaken ero, eji ń lꞌkꞌyel go elgaare.”When He came to the place, He told them, “Pray that you will not enter into temptation.”

41Á kehm jeere song rehng go esꞌsong ekidi labe ana nne bahke roko eltal song rehng. Owo á kehm jamme alahng, kehm kehme ero kak re,And He withdrew about a stone’s throw beyond them, where He knelt down and prayed,

42“Nsoo, lꞌkor-a, fak-m nkob erem nyia! Ana koro me sang, ana koro wo wo.”“Father, if You are willing, take this cup from Me. Yet not My will, but Yours be done.”

43Owo enjel kehm soro lohng go ejahbetul Esowo ba kak-e eko.Then an angel from heaven appeared to Him and strengthened Him.

44Eji ala jo sahb teel-e teele, á kehm nyennge, jo kak ero. Nwuuru nyi á wuuru no, nyi jo toongo wohngo ndi jolo ana agburu atoongo alung.And in His anguish, He prayed more earnestly, and His sweat became like drops of blood falling to the ground.

45Eji á mehle go edi ji á jo kak ero, á kehm feere goji abatꞌtoono ebe, song kpiri bo, bo kpꞌlale, tib ndon nyi jo fili bo.When Jesus rose from prayer and returned to the disciples, He found them asleep, exhausted from sorrow.

46Owo á kehm bahbe bo re, “Jen ji wahnge ń kpꞌlale? Tahmen, wahn kak ero, eji ń lꞌkꞌyel go elgaare.”“Why are you sleeping?” He asked. “Get up and pray so that you will not enter into temptation.”

47Eji á kpi mbungu mbungu, ellong ane kehm soro lohng abake. Nne no bo jo lung-e re Judas ji woomo go ellong abatꞌtoono Jisos, ewubu ane abal, ye wo jo tib bo mbang. Eji bo ma rehng goji Jisos, Judas kehm jeere kohlo Jisos re á sod-e nnyo.While He was still speaking, a crowd arrived, led by the man called Judas, one of the Twelve. He approached Jesus to kiss Him.

48Owo Jisos kehm-e bahbe re, “Judas, anv, a bahke jabbe Mmon no nne ka go nnyo asoda?”But Jesus asked him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”

49Eji abatꞌtoono Jisos nyehne ji yahke lim, owo bo kehm bahbe re, “Ntul, wahr ko akahngkahng enyahre, song nok a boa?”Those around Jesus saw what was about to happen and said, “Lord, should we strike with our swords?”

50Nne awohng go bo ellong kehm fohko ekahngkahng ebe, kpale nju nyi ntubesi abalimajom etung eboblum.And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear.

51Owo Jisos kehm-e tongo re, “Ka kpe lim ano!” Á kehm rodo etung nne noo, feere a bi lak-e, á nob.But Jesus answered, “No more of this!” And He touched the man’s ear and healed him.

52Jisos kehm bahbe atubesi abalimajom, a atubesi ane ba jo baabe etahk Esowo, a anebkul nfam ba ba re bo ba bob-e re, “Ń lohngo a akahngkahng, a atahmtahm atahmtahm ana ń kpꞌbake a nwajv boba?Then Jesus said to the chief priests, temple officers, and elders who had come for Him, “Have you come out with swords and clubs as you would against an outlaw?

53N jo jolo a nahne go etahk Esowo efung abehng abehng, me ń lakem abo. A wo li ngare enyahne, a nyi atubesi ba ejannge.”Every day I was with you in the temple courts, and you did not lay a hand on Me. But this hour belongs to you and to the power of darkness.”

54Owo bo kehm bobo Jisos tahm a ne go etahk ntubesi abalimajom. Jisos jo jene ekv, Pita jen ekv.Then they seized Jesus, led Him away, and took Him into the house of the high priest. And Peter followed at a distance.

55Bo kono agun go nlaaga nyio, ji sennge kak. Pita kehm tob song ji o a bo.When those present had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat down among them.

56Eji nlokeltum no jolo nnenkal nyehne Pita jehk go agun, owo á kehm-e seenge too, kehm bungu re, “Nne noa fvfo tob jolo a ne!”A servant girl saw him seated in the firelight and looked intently at him. “This man also was with Him,” she said.

57Owo Pita kehm gbaame re, “Nnenkal, me we n nehme kahn.”But Peter denied it. “Woman, I do not know Him,” he said.

58Eji ma kpe ji mmongare ntiil, nne noko kehm-e tob nyehn, kehm bungu re, “A tob wob go bo ellong.” Owo Pita kehm tene re, “Eꞌee mbi, me sang.”A short time later, someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not.”

59Eji ma kpe ji ejum awa anyehng, nne noko kehm kpe bung tꞌtahne re, “Etingitingi, nne noa tob jolo a ne fvfo, tibre ye nne a Galili wo.”About an hour later, another man insisted, “Certainly this man was with Him, for he too is a Galilean.”

60Owo Pita kehm faange re, “Mbi, n nehme kahn ji a kpꞌbꞌbung.” Tvtv ona eji á kpi mbungu mbungu, nkok kehm soro kuk.“Man, I do not know what you are talking about,” Peter replied. And immediately, while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed.

61Ntul a Jisos kehm soro keebe, seenge Pita. Owo Pita kehm buumu ellum ni Ntul a Jisos bungu no tong-e re, “Re nkok kehm kuku lela, a bahk-m tene nkpel era.”And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the word that the Lord had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows today, you will deny Me three times.”

62Pita kehm soro lohng ona, song kehme ellingi ndon ndon.And he went outside and wept bitterly.

63Ane ba jabbe Jisos kehm-e kehme elnyoko, fere jo dv-e.The men who were holding Jesus began to mock Him and beat Him.

64Bo tob gba-e mbomo go esamahr, kehm-e bahbe re, “Nyehn amahr me! Anv, nne awo ma-a rum?”They blindfolded Him and kept demanding, “Prophesy! Who hit You?”

65Bo kpe bung alum nyako gbalee, nya bo jo su-e.And they said many other blasphemous things against Him.

66Eji efungfu ma se, anebkul Jus, atubesi abalimajom, a atꞌtibi ba atahm kehm ba kono edi ajehng, kehm koko Jisos ba a ne go bo elam, kehm-e tongo re,At daybreak the council of the elders of the people, both the chief priests and scribes, met together. They led Jesus into their Sanhedrin and said,

67“Tong-r, joare wo wo li Mesaya!” Owo Jisos kehm faange bo re, “N lꞌtong-n anv, ń nehm taame.“If You are the Christ, tell us.” Jesus answered, “If I tell you, you will not believe.

68N lꞌfere bahb-n na, ń nehm faange.And if I ask you a question, you will not answer.

69Bomo anv asongo, Mmon no nne bahke jehke go eboblum Esowo bi gbale sehng.”But from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”

70Bo ane kpee kehm bahbe re, “Anv, wo wo li Mmon no Esowoa?” Jisos kehm faange bo re, “Me wo, ḿ bungu nseenge.”So they all asked, “Are You then the Son of God?” He replied, “You say that I am.”

71Owo bo kehm bungu re, “Anv, e bahke kpe seb ntiansea? Wahrfono antahng ebwuk go ege a nnyo.”“Why do we need any more testimony?” they declared. “We have heard it for ourselves from His own lips.”
