Luke 23 (GYZ) · Opened

1Yek mas kiɗi ji ma̱n Yehudasi tlinya yek sa̱ ta̱la Yesu mal Bilatus gobna,Then the whole council rose and led Jesus away to Pilate.

2yek sa̱ ndet za̱t duu gaa ɗe, <<Ma̱ mbi ma̱lga̱n ten gilla̱t ga̱ mbala̱n jina̱n ɗe ba̱s ba̱l wulpi boo gwasa̱n Kaisar guu so. A ta̱ na̱ma wulti ɗe tik ɗe Almasihu guu.>>And they began to accuse Him, saying, “We found this man subverting our nation, forbidding payment of taxes to Caesar, and proclaiming Himself to be Christ, a King.”

3Yek Bilatus ngem Yesu ɗe, <<Kik ɗe guu ga̱ ma̱n Yehuda?>> Yek Yesu wule, <<Nu ka̱n ni.>>So Pilate asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied.

4Yek Bilatus hwi kiɗi ma̱n da̱nti ka̱ lubii ga̱ Nyami suk naa mbala̱n ɗe, <<Yek laki yek ka̱a̱ tulla̱t ye? Ami wo a mbi byas ilgwe ta̱ pa̱li wu so.>>Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”

5Yek mbala̱mi ngusi wulti ɗe, <<Ga̱ɓa gwe ata̱ hwi mbala̱n wu ka̱ɗe ma̱n tlilti mbadl gwasa̱n ka̱ mas ba̱n ji Yehudiya, tet Galili ka̱n ta̱ nde, yek tik ɓallu a ɗee.>>But they kept insisting, “He stirs up the people all over Judea with His teaching. He began in Galilee and has come all the way here.”

6Bilatus kumi nu wugo yek ta̱ kum ga̱zi ɗe ko Yesu wo ma̱n Galili ka̱ɗe ti. Yek sa̱ wulti ɗe ma̱n Galili ka̱n.When Pilate heard this, he asked if the man was a Galilean.

7Bilatus kumi ɗe Yesu wo ka̱ atl ga̱ Hiridus guu ka̱n ta̱ ni wu, yek ta̱ wulsi ɗe, ta̱s ta̱lat malti na̱k ɗe Hiridus guu ni Wurshelima ka̱ multi jwisi wu.And learning that Jesus was under Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who himself was in Jerusalem at that time.

8Hiridus guu yen Yesu wugo, yek ta̱ pa̱l hwol tuki i'e na̱k ɗe ta̱ la̱m multi ata̱ na̱ma kumti ga̱ɓa tenti wu. Ta̱ lami ta̱s yen wul cit ɓanti gwe a Yesu pa̱li wu.When Herod saw Jesus, he was greatly pleased. He had wanted to see Him for a long time, because he had heard about Him and was hoping to see Him perform a miracle.

9Yek ta̱ kum ga̱s wul wonti mal Yesu ama yek ba̱ Yesu wulti ɗe ilgon so.Herod questioned Jesus at great length, but He gave no answer.

10Kiɗi ma̱n da̱nti ka̱ lubii ga̱ Nya suk ma̱n yisti mba̱t ga̱ Musa ni ka̱li asa̱ na̱ma ta dla̱mti byas wul tenti.Meanwhile, the chief priests and scribes stood there, vehemently accusing Him.

11Yek Hiridus suk ma̱n hapti dlo jwas wulit wul jon, yek sa̱ wulit wul jon yek sa̱ lakit bal luka̱l, yek sa̱ palla̱t su mal Bilatus ka.And even Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked Him. Dressing Him in a fine robe, they sent Him back to Pilate.

12Ndok ten gasi, yek Hiridus suk Bilatus da̱n ɗe yela̱n, na̱k ɗe yela̱n dlanti ka̱ɗe si wu.That day Herod and Pilate became friends; before this time they had been enemies.

13Yek Bilatus mo kiɗi ma̱n da̱nti ka̱ bii ngemti Nya suk kiɗi ji ma̱n ba̱mi suk mbala̱mi mas.Then Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,

14Yek ta̱ wulsi ɗe, <<Ka̱a̱ tulli ma̱lga̱n mala̱n ɗe ta̱ na̱ma gilla̱t ga̱ mbala̱n, ama yek a bodla̱lti yek baa mbit na̱ byas ilgon so.and said to them, “You brought me this man as one who was inciting the people to rebellion. I have examined Him here in your presence and found Him not guilty of your charges against Him.

15A ba̱ Hiridus mbit na̱ byas ilgon so pak, yek laki yek ta̱ palla̱t tet mala̱nni. Kiik ka yeni wu, ta̱ pa̱l ilgwe a laki ɗe ta̱n tlot wu so.Neither has Herod, for he sent Him back to us. As you can see, He has done nothing deserving of death.

16Yek laki ɗe ɓot ka̱n ba ɓoti a paa a zakti.>>Therefore I will punish Him and release Him.”

18Yek mbala̱mi ɓel bi yek sa̱ ngusi wulti na̱ nda̱lti ɗe, <<Za̱n gaa na̱ ma̱lga̱n! A ka̱ zakini Barabas.>>But they all cried out in unison: “Away with this man! Release Barabbas to us!”

19Barabas tulli dlanti ka̱ dlo ga̱ mbala̱n a Wurshelima, yek ta̱ po tlo ma̱lgon. Yek laki yek sa̱ ɓalti.(Barabbas had been imprisoned for an insurrection in the city, and for murder.)

20Yek Bilatus wulsi ɗa̱ɗe, ta̱ lami ɗe ta̱s zak Yesu.Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate addressed them again,

21Yek sa̱ ngusi dla̱mti na̱ nda̱lti ɗe, <<Ɓaka̱nti ten guda̱l yencin ta̱s ma̱shi!>>but they kept shouting, “Crucify Him! Crucify Him!”

22Yek Bilatus po wulsi asa̱mi na mekan ɗe, <<Yek laki ɗe ka̱ lami ta̱ ma̱lga̱n ma̱shi ye? Byas wul yek ta̱ pa̱li ye? A mbit na̱ byas ilgwe a laki ta tlot wu so. Ba laki asa̱ ɓot na̱ tlemndi a paa a zakti.>>A third time he said to them, “What evil has this man done? I have found in Him no offense worthy of death. So after I punish Him, I will release Him.”

23Ama yek sa̱ nge, yek sa̱ ngusi wulti na̱ nda̱lti ɗe, <<Ɓaka̱nti ten guda̱l yencin!>> Yek ga̱ɓe gwasa̱n wu ka̱ dla̱li.But they were insistent, demanding with loud voices for Jesus to be crucified. And their clamor prevailed.

24Yek Bilatus pa̱lisi ilgwe sa̱ lami wu.So Pilate sentenced that their demand be met.

25Yek ta̱ zakisi Barabas, ma̱lgwe sa̱ ɓalti ten ɗe ta̱ tlo ma̱lgon wu, yek ta̱ ba̱lsi Yesu ta̱s pa̱lit ilgwe sa̱ lami wu.As they had requested, he released the one imprisoned for insurrection and murder, and he handed Jesus over to their will.

26Ma̱n hapti dlo na̱ma za̱t gaa na̱ Yesu nugo, yek sa̱ mo suk ma̱lgon asa̱ mbet ɗe Siman ma̱n ba̱n Sayirin ta̱ na̱ma la̱t Wurshelima. Yek sa̱ dopti yek sa̱ zit guda̱l yencin gwe sa̱ ɓak Yesu dani wu gaa, yek sa̱ lakti ta̱s kop Yesu na̱ nali.As the soldiers led Him away, they seized Simon of Cyrene on his way in from the country, and they put the cross on him to carry behind Jesus.

27A mbala̱n wonti na̱ma kopti gwasa̱n suk modli jon asa̱ na̱ma desti lee.A great number of people followed Him, including women who kept mourning and wailing for Him.

28Yek Yesu balla̱ti, yek ta̱ wulsi ɗe, <<Modli Wurshelima, po kuli ninini gaa so, kuli gaa gwaka̱n suk mil jwaka̱n.But Jesus turned to them and said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

29Gas gon wo ka wule, <Modli jwe zi yen so, a ba̱sa̱ lu mil kaal sogo ma̱n hwol tuk ka̱ɗe si.>Look, the days are coming when people will say, ‘Blessed are the barren women, the wombs that never bore, and breasts that never nursed!’

30Ten gasisi ka̱n << <mbala̱n a wul tla̱da̱l ɗe, <<Ndenii sut gaa,>> asa̱ wul za̱nda̱l ɗe, <<Yitlani ka.>> >At that time ‘they will say to the mountains, “Fall on us!” and to the hills, “Cover us!”’

31Kume sa̱ pa̱li nu a tlindi yi diki go, nii ka̱n a pi gwi ɗe tlindi koo wu?>>For if men do these things while the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”

32Yek sa̱ ta̱la mbala̱n ɗe lop jon jwe pa̱l byas wul wu ta̱s tlosi pak suk Yesu.Two others, who were criminals, were also led away to be executed with Jesus.

33Yek sa̱ ta̱lasi ka̱lu gwe asa̱ mbe ɗe <<Is Gaa>> wu. Ka̱li ka̱n sa̱ ɓakti ten guda̱l yencin suk mbala̱n ɗe lop jwe pa̱l byas wul ju. Gon ni ten guda̱l yencin ten ka̱t ang shinti gwasi a gon wo ten ka̱t ang yali gwasi.When they came to the place called The Skull, they crucified Him there, along with the criminals, one on His right and the other on His left.

34Yek Yesu wule, <<Aba, taasi ma̱jin byas wul jwasa̱n ka, na̱k ɗe ba̱sa̱ yis ilgwe sa̱ na̱ma pa̱lti wu sowu.>> Yek sa̱ huul luka̱l ga̱ Yesu ka̱ dlo gwasa̱n ten botlti ga̱ ma̱lgwe a kan wu.Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” And they divided up His garments by casting lots.

35Yek mbala̱n ngusi yenti ga̱ Yesu, yek kiɗi jwasa̱n wulit wul jon ɗe, <<Ta̱ kis naa mbala̱n, ta̱s kis gaa gwas la kume tik ɗe Almasihu gwe Nya botlti wu.>>The people stood watching, and the rulers sneered at Him, saying, “He saved others; let Him save Himself if He is the Christ of God, the Chosen One.”

36Yek ma̱n hapti dlo jwe ɓakti ten guda̱l yencimi wu wulit wul jon, yek sa̱ takit mbayi ze.The soldiers also mocked Him and came up to offer Him sour wine.

37Yek sa̱ wulti ɗe, <<Kume kik ɗe guu ga̱ ma̱n Yehuda go, kis gaa gwa la.>>“If You are the King of the Jews,” they said, “save Yourself!”

38Yek sa̱ lishi ten guda̱l yencimi to gaa ɗatka̱ɗe, <<Ma̱lga̱n ka̱ɗe guu ga̱ ma̱n Yehuda.>>Above Him was posted an inscription: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

39Yek ɗe na̱m ka̱ ma̱jwe pa̱l byas wul ɗe sa̱ ɓaksi ten guda̱l yencin mal Yesu wu, hwit byas ga̱ɓa ɗe, <<Ale kik ɗe Almasihu nwa? Kis gaa gwa aka̱ kisnii pak la.>>One of the criminals who hung there heaped abuse on Him. “Are You not the Christ?” he said. “Save Yourself and us!”

40Yek ma̱li gon wu matlti yek ta̱ wulti ɗe, <<Ɓanti ga̱ Nya mago cik sa? Ɗe ilgwe sa̱ pa̱lini wu ka̱n sa̱ pa̱lit wu.But the other one rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same judgment?

41Mi wo byas ilgwe ma̱ pa̱li wu mbuki ta̱s pa̱lini nu, ama ma̱lga̱n go ta̱ pa̱l byas ilgon so.>>We are punished justly, for we are receiving what our actions deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.”

42Yek ta̱ wul Yesu ɗe, <<A ka̱ yisi lu ne, kume ka̱ ɓal ɗe guu wu.>>Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when You come into Your kingdom!”

43Yek Yesu wulti ɗe, <<A nikma hwit gem ɗe, ase go ka da̱n suk ami ka̱ Boo ga̱ Nya.>>And Jesus said to him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”

44Sa̱ ni nugo, ka̱ dlo cin, yek da̱mshal yitla lu ka mas, se na̱k cin celti.It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over all the land until the ninth hour.

45Yek cin zak cilti, yek labule ga̱ lubii ga̱ Nya kesh su dlo ka.The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn down the middle.

46Yek Yesu wul na̱ nda̱lti ɗe, <<Aba gini, ka̱ ang gwaka̱n a zi mbadl gini.>> Ta̱ dla̱m nu wugo, yek ta̱ ma̱shi.Then Jesus called out in a loud voice, “Father, into Your hands I commit My Spirit.” And when He had said this, He breathed His last.

47Yek bal ma̱n hapti tlo ga̱ ma̱n Roma gwe ni ka̱li wu yeni nu wugo, yek ta̱ ta̱s Nya, yek ta̱ wule, <<Gem, ma̱lga̱n go zok mbala̱n ka̱n.>>When the centurion saw what had happened, he gave glory to God, saying, “Surely this was a righteous man.”

48Yek mas ma̱jwe mogaa ta̱s yen ilgwe a pi wu yeni nu wugo, yek sa̱ ɓo ang ten ngetli, yek sa̱ zigaa.And when all the people who had gathered for this spectacle saw what had happened, they returned home beating their breasts.

49Yek mas ma̱jwe yis Yesu, suk modli jwe kopti tet Galili wu dla̱l tet dlenti, yek sa̱ ngusi yenti ilgwe na̱ma pa̱t wu.But all those who knew Jesus, including the women who had followed Him from Galilee, stood at a distance watching these things.

Ama ba̱ta̱ mo bi suksi ten ilgwe sa̱ pa̱li Yesu wu so.Now there was a Council member named Joseph, a good and righteous man,

52Yek ta̱ li mal Bilatus yek ta̱ ngemti ta̱s ba̱lti hwuu ga̱ Yesu. Yek ta̱ zakti ta̱s lak kami.He went to Pilate to ask for the body of Jesus.
