Matthew 27 (JUM)

1Aŋ wääna tïṇṇäwic aŋŋi ye, ḍuuŋku däŋkä ke yätïnï yek Yühüüṇṇï näŋŋä waŋ teyne ogo nääkïï ko Yeecüwa.When morning came, all the chief priests and elders of the people conspired against Jesus to put Him to death.

2Aŋ ḍiigi aŋ iji müükkï mügdo Biilaatuc yen mä Ruumaan.They bound Him, led Him away, and handed Him over to Pilate the governor.

3Aŋ wääna Yahüüja yaana ike ääkki ŋäc ina ŋïccee Yeecüwa jooce daa me ke tüwnü ti ye, ike jone lüüjjïn aŋ tiilgä gälkä yaaka caykä kä ḍäk yaakka ḍuukkene ḍuuŋku däŋkä ke yätïnï.When Judas, who had betrayed Him, saw that Jesus was condemned, he was filled with remorse and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders.

4Aŋ jaajjin ogo, “Ika näŋŋä nääŋkä yaackä kä ääkkin ŋäc m'ana ḍoŋe ladaŋ ye.” Aŋ iken jaajjin ogo, “Ikoon piilgon ŋaaka? Yaanna a ïkï ti.”“I have sinned by betraying innocent blood,” he said. “What is that to us?” they replied. “You bear the responsibility.”

5Aŋ Yahüüja tiilgä gälkä yibjene ïñï kaal yen änlaṇṇä yen Jooŋ jï, aŋ kaaccä woo aŋ ḍoŋe maaññe.So Judas threw the silver into the temple and left. Then he went away and hanged himself.

6Aŋ ḍuuŋku däŋkä yakkalaŋ tiil koowi aŋ jaajjin ogo, “Batta päjjïdï ḍoocïn tuññu änlaṇṇä jï i a tiil yek yïmgä aŋŋi.The chief priests picked up the pieces of silver and said, “It is unlawful to put this into the treasury, since it is blood money.”

7Aŋ iken ḍuccin jiik aŋ tiil kiññene yiil äjo ogo wääto ogo, nänṭä jïŋŋä boorgu.After conferring together, they used the money to buy the potter’s field as a burial place for foreigners.

8Aŋ ken ina ke tiññaŋ yiil yaanna batte daa me ogo, Yiil Yïmgä yaanna.That is why it has been called the Field of Blood to this day.

9Yaakki ḍääkit barrä yen bäṭo Ïrmïya ogo, “Iken kuññu tiilgä gälkä caykä kä ḍäk, a äccin yaana ḍooccete daa kä mä Icärayiil ye.Then what was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled: “They took the thirty pieces of silver, the price set on Him by the people of Israel,

10Aŋ kiññene yiil äjo, bata yaana iingana kä Pïṭo ye.”and they gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord had commanded me.”

11Aŋ Yeecüwa yuuttu mügdo Biilaatuc yen mä Ruumaan ñome ti, aŋ taaji mügdo ogo, “Ïkï agä yätkä yen Yühüüṇṇï?” Aŋ luugi Yeecüwa ogo, “Ïkï jaajjini.”Meanwhile Jesus stood before the governor, who questioned Him: “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied.

12Aŋ wääna käkkene daa wic ḍuuŋku däŋkä ke yätïnï yek Yühüüṇṇï ye, i ike batta a lüükcïnï.And when He was accused by the chief priests and elders, He gave no answer.

13Aŋ taaji Biilaatuc ogo, “Ïkï batta tiŋdä käkkinni witkin yaaka üüŋütü me ïkï ti yaakka?”Then Pilate asked Him, “Do You not hear how many charges they are bringing against You?”

14Aŋ batta agee kä luukon kä jiikkalaŋ, aŋ mügdo wiñe ḍiiktin.But Jesus gave no answer, not even to a single charge, much to the governor’s amazement.

15Aŋ yuungu muure ti Poñ Kaaldin Wic ti, mügdo yen mä Ruumaan äkkïdï men kä keelok yaana cääy gaŋgar jï aŋ wakä ṭoŋ ye.Now it was the governor’s custom at the feast to release to the crowd a prisoner of their choosing.

16Aŋ waan yaanja ti iken cääygene mäŋkalaŋ gaŋgar jï ŋäjjänä battä me ogo Barabaac.At that time they were holding a notorious prisoner named Barabbas.

17Aŋ wääna mäbaan yoken ḍülene daa kä ye, i iken taaji Biilaatuc ogo, “A ŋaani ken ṭäkke äkke kä, Barabaac halla Yeecüwa yaana battä me ogo Macii ye?”So when the crowd had assembled, Pilate asked them, “Which one do you want me to release to you: Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?”

18Aŋ ŋäjje iken Yeecüwa müükkene daa kä puutin.For he knew it was out of envy that they had handed Jesus over to him.

19Aŋ wääna Biilaatuc cäyee kä nook yen jooññu wic ti ye, tucki iiŋe jiik aŋ kiinne ogo, “M'ana ḍoŋe ladaŋ yaanna daläbu. Ika wääccä lääggï kä yaac wïïrïn tiññaŋ kä ike.”While Pilate was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent him this message: “Have nothing to do with that innocent man, for I have suffered terribly in a dream today because of Him.”

20Aŋ ḍuuŋku däŋkä ke yätïnï ṭoŋ ïïrï ogo ñujjo Barabaac ken äkkee aŋ Yeecüwa ken nägjï ḍok.But the chief priests and elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus put to death.

21Aŋ Biilaatuc ṭoŋ taaññe ogo, “Yaaka kä yewwe yaakki ti wali yaana äkke kä ye?” Aŋ ṭoŋ luukcin ogo, “Barabaac!”“Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” asked the governor. “Barabbas,” they replied.

22Aŋ tääcki ti Biilaatuc ogo, “Aŋ Yeecüwa yaana battä me ogo Macii ye ken naŋä ogoo?” Aŋ ṭoŋ muure luukcin ogo, “Näge ḍok kä ṭellä kaakkon jok!”“What then should I do with Jesus who is called Christ?” Pilate asked. They all answered, “Crucify Him!”

23Aŋ tääcki ti Biilaatuc ogo, “Ina, a yiñ yaana wali ye ken naŋŋe?” Aŋ iken üüttïn kä yääw ṭeṭaŋ ogo, “Näge ḍok kä ṭellä kaakkon jok!”“Why?” asked Pilate. “What evil has He done?” But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify Him!”

24Aŋ wääna yoorene daa Biilaatuc ike batta käñdee kä waan, aŋ a büültïn ken tälit ye, i ike kuññu piik aŋ ïnke lookke woo me ñomgen ti, aŋ jaajjin ogo, “Ika ḍoŋi ladaŋ kä yïmgä oon yaanna. Yaanna a nääŋkä yeekic!”When Pilate saw that he was accomplishing nothing, but that instead a riot was breaking out, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd. “I am innocent of this man’s blood,” he said. “You bear the responsibility.”

25Aŋ me muure luukcin ogo, “Dalä yïmgä yeeke a ikoon ti ke merkä yooko ti!”All the people answered, “His blood be on us and on our children!”

26Aŋ Barabaac äkkeneeda. Aŋ iinjin ogo Yeecüwa ḍooyjï me, aŋ müükkene kääygä mä Ruumaan ogo ṭeljïï ti kaakkon jok.So Pilate released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged, and handed Him over to be crucified.

27Aŋ kääygä yek mügdo Biilaatuc Yeecüwa koowi, aŋ iji wiñ yeenen ti, aŋ kun yen kääygä ḍüülï ti muure ike ti.Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium and gathered the whole company around Him.

28Aŋ burŋu yeene güüdï woo, aŋ iiŋki burŋu beel bata yen yätkä.They stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him.

29Aŋ ṭurki tarbüc eemdin yen küügü aŋ iiŋkene daa wiñe ti, aŋ ḍucki lacan ïṇte birrä ti aŋ ḍüŋjïn ïñï ñome ti aŋ ñiyene yok aŋ kiiṇtä ogo, “Ogook? Yätkä yen Yühüüṇṇï!”And they twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on His head. They put a staff in His right hand, knelt down before Him, and mocked Him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”

30Aŋ ŋüülkï yokïn ñaangä, aŋ lacan koowi aŋ jebene daa kä wiñe ti.Then they spit on Him and took the staff and struck Him on the head repeatedly.

31Aŋ wääna ñiynene kä yok ye, i güüdï yokïn woo aŋ iiŋki buruŋgu yeeke aŋ koowi iji woo ṭelcätä ti kaakkon jok.After they had mocked Him, they removed the robe and put His own clothes back on Him. Then they led Him away to crucify Him.

32Aŋ wääna kaaccene kä woo ye, i iken purjin ke oon yaŋkalaŋ yen mä Giiräwaan, battä me ogo Camaan, aŋ ïïrï kääygä ogo kaakkon Yeecüwa koowje äddee.Along the way they found a man from Cyrene, named Simon, and they forced him to carry the cross of Jesus.

33Aŋ iken ḍakkä ti nänṭä yaana battä me ogo Kulukuuta ye, aŋ aŋan ogo nänṭä yen äwnä men wiñe.And when they came to a place called Golgotha, which means The Place of the Skull,

34Aŋ ike iñi määk a ñukin kä kalkale aŋ wääna näkkeneeda kä ye, ike yaakkä kä maaṇṇä.they offered Him wine to drink, mixed with gall; but after tasting it, He refused to drink it.

35Aŋ wääna ike ṭeljene daa ti kaakkon jok ye, iken buruŋgu yeeke ŋüülï gïtï aŋ naŋi kä jaan.When they had crucified Him, they divided up His garments by casting lots.

36Aŋ iken cääjjin ïñï aŋ ike tïïcä.And sitting down, they kept watch over Him there.

37Aŋ wiñe ti iken ḍuccin jiik pergin yek cïŋŋä yaana üŋjïdï ike ti ye jayok ogo, “A Yeecüwa inni, Yätkä yen Yühüüṇṇï.”Above His head they posted the written charge against Him: THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

38Aŋ ñagatṇi yakkalaŋ kä yewwe ṭeli me ke ike, keelok kä buŋ birrä ti aŋ yaŋkalaŋ kä buŋ aam ti.Two robbers were crucified with Him, one on His right and the other on His left.

39Aŋ m'aka kaajit ye yawok kiirä witken bergä kä ñääy,And those who passed by heaped abuse on Him, shaking their heads

40aŋ jayok ogo, “Ïkï yaana jaayä ogo änlaṇṇä yen Jooŋ ḍüümjey gïtï, aŋ ŋuca korjey nïïnkä ko ḍäk ye! Ḍoŋü mäkkä! Kääjä ïñï kaakkon jok naana ïkï agä Minneni Jooŋ a gïtken ye.”and saying, “You who are going to destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross!”

41Aŋ cäänna ḍuuŋku däŋkä ke nüütoni jiik ḍoocin yek Jooŋ ke yätïnï ike ñiyge yok kiiṇtä ogo,In the same way, the chief priests, scribes, and elders mocked Him, saying,

42“Ike mäkkalaŋ maŋŋe, aŋ ḍoŋe batta lïïlde kä mäkkin! Naana ike a yätkä yen mä Icärayiil ye, dale käjä ïñï kaakkon jok tiññaaŋŋi, aŋ ikoon bi luggon kä ike.“He saved others, but He cannot save Himself. He is the King of Israel! Let Him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in Him.

43Ike lüggïdï kä Jooŋ aŋ dale Jooŋ ike mäkkänä tiññaaŋŋi naana ike ṭäkkänä ye, kä yaana jaayee kä ogo ike agje Minneni Jooŋ ye.”He trusts in God. Let God deliver Him now if He wants Him. For He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”

44Aŋ cäänna ñagatṇi yaaka a ṭeljïnï ti ke ike kaakkonni jugin ye, ike kirgä cäänna kä jiik keelkä.In the same way, even the robbers who were crucified with Him berated Him.

45Aŋ wääna äŋ yuuttee ṭeejjük ye i mïïllä ŋommañ äätte wic muure ke näŋe wuuggu kä ḍäk.From the sixth hour until the ninth hour darkness came over all the land.

46Aŋ wääna wuuŋ ḍäk ti ye, Yeecüwa yaajjin kä yääw mooye aŋ jaajjin ogo, “Ïlï, Ïlï, lama cabaktaani?” Aŋ aŋan ogo, “Jooŋ yeeni, Jooŋ yeeni, ika daldaabu ina?”About the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”

47Aŋ wääna mäkkalaŋ yuddene kä wïca aŋ tiiŋŋene kä aŋan ye, i iken jaajjin ogo, “Ike bäärä bäṭo Ïlïya.”When some of those standing there heard this, they said, “He is calling Elijah.”

48Yaŋkalaŋ iken ti lüüṇṇü aŋ uṇtal küümgene kä määk peñkä aŋ ḍoocce lacan ti aŋ läjgeneeda ogo maadje.One of them quickly ran and brought a sponge. He filled it with sour wine, put it on a reed, and held it up for Jesus to drink.

49Aŋ meken jaajjin ogo, “Dalä bu pare tïka, yoorïn naana Ïlïya bi ätä ike mäkkänä ye.”But the others said, “Leave Him alone. Let us see if Elijah comes to save Him.”

50Aŋ Yeecüwa yaajjin ŋuca kä yääw mooye aŋ wääktäŋ yeene ḍoocce.When Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, He yielded up His spirit.

51Aŋ kä ḍeeraŋ aŋŋi burŋu yaana a daaŋjïnï änlaṇṇä ti ye, jeññä gïtï ääŋke kä yewwe bäätin ïñï kä ñaaloŋŋu ke ïñï, aŋ ŋommañ bukcin aŋ ḍaraŋŋi bääktin.At that moment the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth quaked, and the rocks were split.

52Aŋ kälkä witken kupkin, aŋ me ḍiirken yek Jooŋ yaaka a tüwïn ye, juwin ñaalok.The tombs broke open, and the bodies of many saints who had fallen asleep were raised.

53Aŋ iken kääjin woo kälkä gïtï, i ḍaŋŋa Yeecüwa a jüwïnï, aŋ iken attä baan mooye laṇṇä jï Oorcalïïm aŋ yoken nüütkï woo me ḍiirken.After Jesus’ resurrection, when they had come out of the tombs, they entered the holy city and appeared to many people.

54Aŋ wääna ḍuuŋgon kääygä yen mä Ruumaan ke kääygä yaaka ke ike däämene Yeecüwa aŋ yuṭṭene bukcin ŋommañ ke waak'a näŋŋä ḍuuggen ye, iken bojgin kä yaac aŋ jaajjin ogo, “A gïtken ike a Minneni yen Jooŋ!”When the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and all that had happened, they were terrified and said, “Truly this was the Son of God.”

55Aŋ wïca määngä ḍiirken yakkalaŋ däämmïdï kä utar, a yaaka Yeecüwa bäädänä kä Jalïïl aŋ ñuugulunu ye.And many women were there, watching from a distance. They had followed Jesus from Galilee to minister to Him.

56Aŋ Märïyam yaana battä me ogo Majdalïïna bilti ke iken ke Märïyam yaana a Yaagüüp ke Yuucip meen ina ke merkälen Jabadï meen.Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of Zebedee’s sons.

57Aŋ wääna biigin ti ḍäägenee ye, oon yaŋkalaŋ a ceeggon äätin ätä Raama battä me ogo Yuucip, aŋ ike cäänna a baaddo yen Yeecüwa.When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea named Joseph, who himself was a disciple of Jesus.

58Aŋ ike attä Biilaatuc ti, aŋ ñujjin ogo Yeecüwa gaane, aŋ Biilaatuc iinjin ogo ïñjïda ko me.He went to Pilate to ask for the body of Jesus, and Pilate ordered that it be given to him.

59Aŋ gaane koowi Yuucip, aŋ paarre yok kä burŋu kïcconḍe yen jïŋŋä me.So Joseph took the body, wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,

60Aŋ maaṭṭe kääl yeene kïcconḍe jï, yaana agee kä küüñgon pääm ti bata ṭuumpoŋe ye. Aŋ pääm ḍüljene ti kääl tük aŋ attä.and placed it in his own new tomb that he had cut into the rock. Then he rolled a great stone across the entrance to the tomb and went away.

61Aŋ Märïyam yaana battä me ogo Majdalïïna ke Märïyam yaŋkalaŋ bilti wïca cäyok ñomgen agene ṭukin ti kääl wic.Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were sitting there opposite the tomb.

62Aŋ nïïnnä yaana äätïdï Äŋ Jïñe Wääktäŋ ti ye, ḍuuŋku däŋkä ke Pïrrïcïïnnï attä yoken ḍülï Biilaatuc ñome ti.The next day, the one after Preparation Day, the chief priests and Pharisees assembled before Pilate.

63Aŋ jaajjin ogo, “Mügdo, ikoon paydon wääna maldo ŋïngïn yaanja mor agee kä üdon kä ye, jaajjin ogo, ‘Ika bi juwu ñaalok nïïnkä kä ḍäk tüwnü ti.’“Sir,” they said, “we remember that while He was alive that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise again.’

64Aŋ iinjä dalä kääl wiñe tïïcä me ke nïïnnä ḍäk ti. Nuŋkodo baaddoni yeeke äätïdï aŋ gaane kaltä, aŋ me kiiṇtä ogo, ‘Juwono tüwnü ti.’ Aŋ aŋan yelkïtïn yaana düüñïn ti ye, bi yaajaŋ kä yaana ïïjjïn ti ye.”So give the order that the tomb be secured until the third day. Otherwise, His disciples may come and steal Him away and tell the people He has risen from the dead. And this last deception would be worse than the first.”

65Aŋ iken luugi Biilaatuc ogo, “Kuje tïïconi aŋ ate näŋe tïïññä bata yaana lïïlde ye.“You have a guard,” Pilate said. “Go, make the tomb as secure as you know how.”

66Aŋ iken attä aŋ kääl wiñe näŋgi tïïññä, aŋ üüljï kä pääm aŋ märki gin'a ŋïcte daa kä ye, aŋ ḍuccin tïïconi.So they went and secured the tomb by sealing the stone and posting the guard.
