Matthew 27 (LGA)

1Na vuvugei jonga sa qai vaikamu sira na kuta iama beto ira na iviva mamata, ko qai kole vaingodonia kaki roroqu vei beto mai vamatea si Jisu qarigu.When morning came, all the chief priests and elders of the people conspired against Jesus to put Him to death.

2Beto sa qai piua si Jisu ko qai toni laonia ti Paelati na qavuna.They bound Him, led Him away, and handed Him over to Pilate the governor.

3Ego tonai sa gigilai i Jiudasi, isa sa gabala kanai i Jisu, sa sa tapitu ko mina tavamate si Jisu, poni sa roqu mule sisa ko sa pogoso mule laoniria tadira na kuta iama beto na iviva mamata sa ka uengavuluputa poata siliva,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.

4pira sau, <<Qa sela sara, ura na tinoni tuvisina sa qa gabala kanai ara ko mina tavamate,>> sau. Poni pira qarigunia ira sisa, <<Ko ai mene veinia agei? Isa na mua ginugua tu mekamu ao sisa,>> qarigunia.“I have sinned by betraying innocent blood,” he said. “What is that to us?” they replied. “You bear the responsibility.”

5Poni sa lao gona palenia pa zelepade madina i Jiudasi sa na poata, beto sa taloa riu boru mateona.So Judas threw the silver into the temple and left. Then he went away and hanged himself.

6Ko qai tekua ira na kuta iama sa na poata, beto pira qarigu, <<Na poata laona na orungu sa pira, ko nake tavamalumuna pana Vavanau za mina tavalao pa poata ruma zelepade,>> qarigu.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.”

7Ko qai vaingodonia ira sa na roroquna na poata isa ko qai vainia kai iapeki kobu peso tana tinoni sa roroiti raro patu, ko ketakoi sa na vavaigolomona tadira na tinoni gotodi.After conferring together, they used the money to buy the potter’s field as a burial place for foreigners.

8Inara sa vei ko na ia isa sa qai vaisongonia na Kobu Peso Orungu, ko sa korapa kole tinganai sa kamua tu pa rane pa ngeni api sisa.That is why it has been called the Field of Blood to this day.

9Ko sa gore votu tugu sa na kokorotai isa sa lame vei ti Jeremae na tinoni kokorotai, pira sau, <<Ko qai tekuria sa ka uengavuluputa poata siliva, na vaina isa qai malumu vainia ira na tinoni Izireli,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,

10ko qai vainia iapeki kobu peso tana tinoni roroiti raro patu, isa sa garununisiu na Bangara ara ko mana roitinia,>> sau.and they gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord had commanded me.”

11Ego ko sa lao turu pa moena i Paelati na qavuna si Jisu, ko sa nanasia na qavuna sisa, <<Na bangara tugu tadira na Jiu sao?>> saunia. Poni pira sau si Jisu, <<Isa tugu qu pojai ao ina,>> saunia.Meanwhile Jesus stood before the governor, who questioned Him: “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied.

12Tonai qai jutunia doru paranga ira na kuta iama beto na iviva mamata, sa sake pavu oeria i Jisu sira.And when He was accused by the chief priests and elders, He gave no answer.

13Poni sa parangia i Paelati sisa, <<Ai vei, quke nongororia ao sa doru sakasava qai jutunigo inara?>> saunia.Then Pilate asked Him, “Do You not hear how many charges they are bringing against You?”

14Ba kepore tugu sa kai pakata paranga ikete bi oe laonia si Jisu, ko ketakoi sa sa gabara jola sa na qavuna.But Jesus gave no answer, not even to a single charge, much to the governor’s amazement.

15Ego pa doru totoso vavolo Alokata sa na ona tutina tugu na qavuna sa sa boka ruvata vaniria ira na tinoni Jiu sa kai tinoni tapiuna mai tepai.Now it was the governor’s custom at the feast to release to the crowd a prisoner of their choosing.

16Ko pa totoso isa sa koleona sa kai tinoni tapiuna na tagigila vatalena sa kai tinoni ikikerena jola sisa, na isongona i Jisu Barabasi.At that time they were holding a notorious prisoner named Barabbas.

17Ko totonai qai lao vaikamu beto sira doru tinoni sa sa nanasaria i Paelati sira, <<I sei ira karu sa qu nyoguania agou ba ruvata vanigou ara? I Jisu Barabasi ba i Jisu isa sa tapoja na Karisito?>> sau.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?”

18Ura sa gigila vataleriaona i Paelati sira ka visa iviva mamata sa qai konoa gu si Jisu ko vei sa qai loa laonia tana.For he knew it was out of envy that they had handed Jesus over to him.

19Totonai sa korapa toqona pa nona totoqona pa ia vavaitutina si Paelati, sa sa garunu laonia na maqotana tana sa kai nongoro, pira sau, <<Muke kotia ao na tinoni tuvisina ina, ura kubo sakasava vaivatakulangadi sa qa putagitaria ara pa bongi na veveina na tinoni ina,>> sau.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.”

20Ego pa totoso isa sa ira na kuta iama beto na iviva mamata sa qai paranga sosoriria sira na minete tinoni, ko mai parangia tugu si Paelati ko mi ruvatia si Barabasi goto i Jisu sa mina tavamate tugu qarigu.But the chief priests and elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus put to death.

21Ba i Paelati sa nanasaria mule sira na minete tinoni, <<I sei ira karu pira sa qu nyoguania agou ko ba ruvata vanigou ara?>> sauniria. Poni sa, <<I Barabasi!>> qarigu.“Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” asked the governor. “Barabbas,” they replied.

22Poni sa parangaria i Paelati sira, <<Ko ai mana veinia ara si Jisu isa sa tapoja na Karisito?>> sau. Poni sa qai oe lao sira doru, <<Isa sa mi tavamate gu pa korosi!>> qarigu.“What then should I do with Jesus who is called Christ?” Pilate asked. They all answered, “Crucify Him!”

23Ba sa nanasa liguria mutugu i Paelati sira, <<Na sela sa sa sa roitinia isa?>> sauniria. Ba totonai sa qai vevela vaiolo viviva sira, pira qarigu, <<Vamatea pa korosi!>> qarigu.“Why?” asked Pilate. “What evil has He done?” But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify Him!”

24Totonai sa doro gigilai i Paelati sa kepore mule kai sa mina boka roitinia isa goto na vaipera gu sa kode mina podo sau, poni sa lao nobu pie ko sa loqa lima pa moedi ira na minete tinoni, beto sa pira sa paranga vei, <<Ara sa qa talegasania sa na mate tana tinoni api! Kopira sa na miu ginugua tu mekamiu agou sapi,>> sau sisa.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.”

25Qai paranga sira na minete tinoni doruna, <<Jongana, agei beto ira na tumei me gosoroni vinakilasa sa na mate tana tinoni ina!>> qarigu.All the people answered, “His blood be on us and on our children!”

26Ko sa garunuria i Paelati sira na solodia ko qai ruvatia si Barabasi, beto sa pa liguna qai iruni vavaiiruna si Jisu sa sa loa lao vaniria ko mai vamatea sau.So Pilate released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged, and handed Him over to be crucified.

27Beto sa qai toni laonia ira na solodia tai Paelati pa kakabarena na ruma tana qavuna si Jisu, ko qai lao turu vailivutai betonia ira na minete solodia doruna sisa.Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium and gathered the whole company around Him.

28Qai jokolo vagore palea sa nona poko, beto qai vasae beinia kai poko gojo jijimirina.They stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him.

29Beto qai tekua na kae gou vavaiokana ko qai polo vadididolai vaipipiluainia beto sa qai vasolapania pa batuna, beto qai tekua kai kolu ko qai vaarunia pa lima kale matuana. Beto sa qai kole totodongo pa moena ko qai kole vavagoreni qera, pira qarigu, <<Mi toa vakakasa tu na bangara tadira na Jiu!>> qarigu.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!”

30Beto sa qai tue taria, beto qai majai na batuna.Then they spit on Him and took the staff and struck Him on the head repeatedly.

31Pa liguna qai beto vavagoreni qera veinia inara, sa qai vagore pale sa na poko jimiri qai vasaenia, ko qai vasae beinia nona poko, beto sa qai toni votu laonia ko mai vamatea pa korosi qarigu.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.

32Ego totonai qai taloa riu sa qai lao gosoria sa kai tinoni pa Saerini, na isongona i Saimone. Qai juju tarinia ko qai vapogosonia isa ira na solodia sa na korosi tai Jisu.Along the way they found a man from Cyrene, named Simon, and they forced him to carry the cross of Jesus.

33Qai lao kamua ira sa kai ia na isongona pa Qoloqota, na ginuana sa na Eqa Batu Tomate.And when they came to a place called Golgotha, which means The Place of the Skull,

34Pa ia ketakoi sa qai vania na vaini isa qai vaisomanainia na sakasava pasana sa vamalibua na vitigi. Ba tonai sa gigilai na lilingina sa pasa poni sa sa daiona bukua.they offered Him wine to drink, mixed with gall; but after tasting it, He refused to drink it.

35Qai vamatea pa korosi ira sisa, beto sa qai gonania na patu vivile ko qai vilea i sei mina tekuria sira nona poko.When they had crucified Him, they divided up His garments by casting lots.

36Beto poni sa qai kole toqo dodoro kopunia.And sitting down, they kept watch over Him there.

37Qai kuti vakolea pa korosi pa toto batuna pa narena isa sira na paranga sa tajutunia isa, pira sau: API SI JISU NA BANGARA TADIRA NA JIU.Above His head they posted the written charge against Him: THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

38Ko qai mekarai vamate tavitinia isa sa karu tinoni raja ikikodi, kame keta pa kale matuana, kame keta pa kale merina.Two robbers were crucified with Him, one on His right and the other on His left.

39Ira na tinoni qai rerege jola sa qai bebegolo beto bebekuturia na batudi beto qai avavu beto poja vivikere pale si Jisu,And those who passed by heaped abuse on Him, shaking their heads

40pira qarigu, <<Ao na tinoni muna jegaria na zelepade madina beto pa rane vinaue muna roiti beinia qugu! Ego tu mu alo mulenigo mekamu vei muna Tuna na Tamasa sao. Mu tavisu goremua pa korosi!>> qarigunia.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!”

41Ko ira na kuta iama, ira qai vaivagigalainia na Vavanau beto ko ira na iviva mamata ba qai kole ngangangulu veinia tugu inara si Jisu, pira qarigu,In the same way, the chief priests, scribes, and elders mocked Him, saying,

42<<Na goto tinoni tu sa sa aloria, goto mekana sake boka alo mulenia mekana! Na Bangara pa Izireli sisa sau ke! Ko kopira mi tavisu gore lagere tu pa korosi ko ta vasosotoa.“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.

43Sa rangea ko na Tamasa beto mekana ba, <Ara sa na Tuna na Tamasa,> sau. Ko aria ko ta dodogoro kopunia moko! Mina nyogua tugu beka aloa na Tamasa sisa!>> qarigu.He trusts in God. Let God deliver Him now if He wants Him. For He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”

44Ira karu tinoni raja ikikodi qai titi tavitia isa pa karu kalena ba qai somana paranga ngangangulu veinia tugu aza.In the same way, even the robbers who were crucified with Him berated Him.

45Ego podalai na korapa rane sa sa udea na rodomo kukuni sa na doru eqa, ko sa kole rodomo pada kue aoa.From the sixth hour until the ninth hour darkness came over all the land.

46Ko sa kamua papada vei kue koloko sa sa kukuku lukana si Jisu, <<Elai, Elai, Lama Sabakatani?>> sau. (Na ginuana sa pira sau, <<Qua Tamasa, qua Tamasa! Ai sa vei ko qu loa palenisiu tu ao?>> sau.)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?”

47Kaki ira qai korapa turu ketakoi sa qai nongoriadia sa paranga vei inara isa, ko qai paranga sira, <<Na tinoni ina sa korapa kukua si Elaija,>> qarigu.When some of those standing there heard this, they said, “He is calling Elijah.”

48Ko kame ira sa sa sisiqarai abutu lao tekua kai poko, ko sa vatubulunia kai buku pasana, ko sa vakolea pa uquna na kolu, beto sa sa alaka saenia ko mi vabukua sau.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.

49Ba qai paranga sira kaki, <<Loai ko! Ta dodogoria mai, palu kode mina kamu aloa i Elaija sina!>> qarigu.But the others said, “Leave Him alone. Let us see if Elijah comes to save Him.”

50Beto sa kai lukana vaiolo viviva si Jisu, beto sa sa loai na singo.When Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, He yielded up His spirit.

51Ko pana totoso tugu isa sa na toba poko babana sa titi pa zelepade madina sa sa tarikatarua, sa podalai tu pa nulu ko sa gore tu kamu pa uquna pa peso. Ko sa jojou sa na peso ko qai tapapaqala sa na patu,At that moment the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth quaked, and the rocks were split.

52ira na bevi vavaigolomodi sa qai tajejegara ko qai tarevanga, ko na motadi ira na tinoni tana Tamasa qai tei mate tu pa moa sa qai tavatoa mule.The tombs broke open, and the bodies of many saints who had fallen asleep were raised.

53Ko qai turu taloa pa dia bevi, ko pa liguna sa turu mule i Jisu sa qai tome lao pa gugusu tabuna pa Jerusalema, ko qai batiria ira na mota tinoni suveredi ketakoi.After Jesus’ resurrection, when they had come out of the tombs, they entered the holy city and appeared to many people.

54Na tinoni mamata gogoto beto ko ira na tinoni vaipera qai suvere tavitia isa ko qai kole kopunia i Jisu sa qai matagutu vivitigi totonai qai vagigilai na nunu beto doru sakasava qai taroiti, ko qai paranga sira, <<Sosoto na Tuna tugu na Tamasa sa na tinoni api!>> qarigu.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.”

55Ego na motadi ira na rereko qai rererege tavitia i Jisu na koko lame veidi pa Qalili ko qai totokania isa sa qai kole tugu suveredia ketakoi. Qai turu pa souna ko qai kole dodoro lao.And many women were there, watching from a distance. They had followed Jesus from Galilee to minister to Him.

56Ko ira Mere pa gugusu Magadalene, i Mere na tinadi ira Jekopi i Josepa, beto na maqotana i Zebeti sa qai kole tugu suvere vaisomanaidia tadira na rereko ketakoi.Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of Zebedee’s sons.

57Ego totonai sa gore sa na vevelu sa sa kamu si Josepa kai tinoni isisongo pa Arimatia. Kai sepele tugu tai Jisu sisa.When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea named Joseph, who himself was a disciple of Jesus.

58Sa lao tai Paelati sisa ko sa tepai sa na kokobu tinina i Jisu. Poni sa vamalumia i Paelati ko mai loa lao vania i Josepa sa na kokobu tinina i Jisu sau.He went to Pilate to ask for the body of Jesus, and Pilate ordered that it be given to him.

59Ko sa lao teku vagorea i Josepa sa na kokobu tinina i Jisu, ko sa udenia kai poko liosona.So Joseph took the body, wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,

60Beto sa sa lao vakolea pa ona bevi koregana, isa sa koni ruri vaoqilia pa patu. Ko sa bokili laonia kai patu lavata sa pa atakamanana na bevi, beto sa riuona.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.

61Ko i Mere pa gugusu Magadalene, beto kai goto Mere mule sa qai kole tugu toqo bata lao veidia tugu pa bevi isa.Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were sitting there opposite the tomb.

62Ego sa rane ligu neqa, na rane Minere, sa qai mekarai lao kamua i Paelati sira na kuta iama beto na Parese.The next day, the one after Preparation Day, the chief priests and Pharisees assembled before Pilate.

63Ko qai paranga sira, <<Bangara, qeke roqu mumania agei sa na paranga tana tinoni sesekena ina totonai sa korapa toana isa sa pojai, pira sau, <Pa rane vinaue mana toa mule pa mate sara,> sau.“Sir,” they said, “we remember that while He was alive that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise again.’

64Ko muna garunu laoniria tu kaki tinoni kopu sa pa bevi ko mai kopu vatalenia tinganai mina jola tu kue rane. Kita ira na ona sepele gu mai kamu iko tekua sa na kokobu tinina beto mai lao seseke tadira na tinoni, <Sa tei toa mule tu pa mate sisa,> kita marigu. Ko isa na seseke vinabebeto isa sa kita mi ikerena jolania na momoena,>> qarigu.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.”

65Poni sa pira sauniria i Paelati, <<Mu lao tekuria kaki solodia ko mu kopu vatale veinia isa muna bokai agou sa na bevi,>> sauniria.“You have a guard,” Pilate said. “Go, make the tomb as secure as you know how.”

66Poni qai taloa riu sira ko qai lao varamata vatalea kai vinagigila pa patu pateina na bevi, beto sa qai vasuvereria na tinoni kopu ko mai kopu vatalenia qarigu.So they went and secured the tomb by sealing the stone and posting the guard.
