Matthew 26 (LIN)

1Tango Yesu asilisaki koloba makambo wana nyonso, ayebisaki bayekoli na Ye :When Jesus had finished saying all these things, He told His disciples,

2« Boyebi malamu ete etikali mikolo mibale mpo ete feti ya Pasika ebanda, mpe ete ezali na tango wana nde bakokaba Mwana na Moto mpo ete babaka Ye na ekulusu. »“You know that the Passover is two days away, and the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified.”

3Boye, bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe bakambi ya bato basanganaki kati na ndako ya Kayifa, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe ;At that time the chief priests and elders of the people assembled in the courtyard of the high priest, whose name was Caiaphas,

4bayokanaki kosalela mayele mabe mpo na kokanga Yesu mpe koboma Ye.and they conspired to arrest Jesus covertly and kill Him.

5Kasi balobaki : « Tosala yango te na tango ya feti, noki te bato bakotomboka. »“But not during the feast,” they said, “or there may be a riot among the people.”

6Lokola Yesu azalaki na Betani, na ndako ya Simona oyo azalaki moto na maba,While Jesus was in Bethany in the home of Simon the Leper,

7mwasi moko apusanaki pene na Ye. Na maboko na ye, azalaki na molangi ya alibatre etonda na malasi ya motuya makasi. Wana Yesu azalaki na mesa, mwasi yango asopaki malasi yango na moto ya Yesu.a woman came to Him with an alabaster jar of expensive perfume, which she poured on His head as He reclined at the table.

8Tango bayekoli bamonaki bongo, basilikaki mpe balobaki : — Mpo na nini kobebisa malasi boye ?When the disciples saw this, they were indignant and asked, “Why this waste?

9Bakokaki ata koteka yango na motuya makasi mpe kopesa mbongo epai ya babola !This perfume could have been sold at a high price, and the money given to the poor.”

10Tango Yesu amonaki bongo, alobaki na bango : — Mpo na nini bozali kotungisa mwasi oyo ? Asali Ngai likambo moko ya malamu.Aware of this, Jesus asked, “Why are you bothering this woman? She has done a beautiful deed to Me.

11Bokozalaka na babola tango nyonso ; kasi Ngai, bokozalaka na Ngai tango nyonso te.The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have Me.

12Wana asopi malasi oyo na nzoto na Ngai, asali yango mpo na kobongisa kokundama na Ngai.By pouring this perfume on Me, she has prepared My body for burial.

13Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo : esika nyonso bakosakola Sango Malamu oyo kati na mokili mobimba, bakobanda mpe kolobela likambo mwasi oyo awuti kosala, mpo na kokanisa ye.Truly I tell you, wherever this gospel is preached in all the world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.”

14Moko kati na bantoma zomi na mibale, oyo kombo na ye ezalaki Yuda Isikarioti, akendeki epai ya bakonzi ya Banganga-NzambeThen one of the Twelve, the one called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests

15mpe atunaki bango : — Bozali kokanisa kopesa ngai nini soki nateki Yesu epai na bino ? Boye bafutaki ye mbongo ya bibende tuku misato.and asked, “What are you willing to give me if I hand Him over to you?” And they set out for him thirty pieces of silver.

16Banda na tango wana, Yuda akomaki koluka libaku malamu ya kokaba Yesu.So from then on Judas looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus.

17Na mokolo ya liboso ya feti ya Mapa ezanga levire, bayekoli bayaki kotuna Yesu : — Esika nini olingi ete tobongisela Yo bilei ya Pasika ?On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?”

18Azongiselaki bango : — Bokende na engumba epai ya moto songolo mpe boloba na ye : « Moteyi alobi : ‹ Tango na Ngai ekomi pene ; nakolia bilei ya Pasika elongo na bayekoli na Ngai epai na yo. › »He answered, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him that the Teacher says, ‘My time is near. I will keep the Passover with My disciples at your house.’”

19Bayekoli basalaki ndenge Yesu atindaki bango mpe babongisaki bilei ya Pasika.So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover.

20Tango pokwa ekomaki, Yesu avandaki na mesa elongo na bayekoli zomi na mibale.When evening came, Jesus was reclining with the twelve disciples.

21Wana bazalaki kolia, Yesu alobaki : — Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo : moko kati na bino akoteka Ngai.And while they were eating, He said to them, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray Me.”

22Bayokaki mawa mingi, mpe bakomaki kotuna Ye, moko sima na moninga : — Nkolo, ezali ngai ?They were deeply grieved and began to ask Him one after another, “Surely not I, Lord?”

23Yesu azongisaki : — Moto oyo akoteka Ngai azali kolia sani moko elongo na Ngai.Jesus answered, “The one who has dipped his hand into the bowl with Me will betray Me.

24Solo, Mwana na Moto akokende, kolanda ndenge ekomama na tina na Ye ; kasi mawa na moto oyo akoteka Mwana na Moto ! Elingaki kozala malamu koleka mpo na moto yango ete abotama te.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.”

25Yuda, ye oyo asengeli koteka Ye, alobaki : — Moteyi, ezali ngai ? Yesu azongiselaki ye : — Olobi yango.Then Judas, who would betray Him, said, “Surely not I, Rabbi?” Jesus answered, “You have said it yourself.”

26Wana bazalaki kolia, Yesu azwaki lipa ; sima na Ye kozongisa matondi epai ya Nzambe, akataki yango mpe apesaki yango na bayekoli na koloba : — Oyo ezali nzoto na Ngai ! Bozwa mpe bolia.While they were eating, Jesus took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is My body.”

27Azwaki lisusu kopo ; mpe sima na Ye kozongisa matondi epai ya Nzambe, apesaki bango yango na koloba : — Bomela yango bino nyonso ;Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you.

28ezali makila na Ngai ya Boyokani, makila oyo esopani mpo na bato ebele, mpo ete masumu na bango elimbisama.This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.

29Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo : kobanda sik’oyo, nakomela lisusu vino oyo te kino na mokolo oyo nakomela yango, ya sika, elongo na bino, kati na Bokonzi ya Tata na Ngai.I tell you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it anew with you in My Father’s kingdom.”

30Sima na yango, bayembaki banzembo ; bongo babimaki mpo na kokende na ngomba ya banzete ya olive.And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

31Yesu alobaki na bango : — Na butu ya lelo, bokokweyisa kondima na bino mpo na Ngai ; pamba te ekomama : « Nakobeta mobateli bibwele, mpe bameme ya etonga ekopalangana. »Then Jesus said to them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of Me. For it is written: ‘I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’

32Kasi, sima na Ngai kosekwa, nakokende na Galile, liboso na bino.But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”

33Petelo alobaki : — Ata soki bango nyonso bakweyisi kondima na bango likolo na Yo, ngai nakotikala kokweyisa kondima na ngai te.Peter said to Him, “Even if all fall away on account of You, I never will.”

34Yesu azongiselaki ye : — Nazali koloba na yo penza ya solo : kaka na butu ya lelo, liboso ete soso elela, okowangana Ngai mbala misato.“Truly I tell you,” Jesus declared, “this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.”

35Petelo alobaki na Ye : — Ata soki nasengeli kokufa elongo na Yo, nakowangana Yo te. Mpe bayekoli nyonso balobaki kaka ndenge moko.Peter replied, “Even if I have to die with You, I will never deny You.” And all the other disciples said the same thing.

36Elongo na bayekoli na Ye, Yesu akomaki na esika oyo babengaka Getisemane mpe alobaki na bango : — Botikala awa, wana Ngai nakeyi kosambela kuna.Then Jesus went with His disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and He told them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.”

37Wana amemaki Petelo mpe bana mibali mibale ya Zebede, akomaki mawa-mawa mpe komitungisa ;He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee and began to be sorrowful and deeply distressed.

38alobaki na bango : — Motema na Ngai etondi na mawa pene nakufa ; botikala awa mpe bosenzela elongo na Ngai.Then He said to them, “My soul is consumed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with Me.”

39Akendeki mwa mosika, amikitisaki elongi kino na mabele mpe asambelaki boye : — Tata, soki ekoki kosalema, tika ete kopo oyo ya pasi ekende mosika na Ngai ! Nzokande, kosala te kolanda mokano na Ngai, kasi sala kolanda mokano na Yo.Going a little farther, He fell facedown and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me. Yet not as I will, but as You will.”

40Bongo azongaki epai bayekoli na Ye bazalaki mpe akutaki bango balala pongi ; alobaki na Petelo : — Boni, bokokaki te kosenzela elongo na Ngai mpo na ngonga moko ?Then Jesus returned to the disciples and found them sleeping. “Were you not able to keep watch with Me for one hour?” He asked Peter.

41Bosenzela mpe bosambela mpo ete bokweya te kati na komekama. Molimo ezalaka na posa makasi ya kosala malamu, kasi nzoto ezalaka na bolembu.“Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”

42Akendeki lisusu mwa mosika, na mbala ya mibale, mpe abondelaki : — Tata na Ngai, soki ekoki kosalema te ete kopo oyo ya pasi ekende mosika na Ngai, wana tika ete mokano na Yo esalema !A second time He went away and prayed, “My Father, if this cup cannot pass unless I drink it, may Your will be done.”

43Azongaki lisusu epai bayekoli na Ye bazalaki mpe akutaki bango lisusu balala pongi, pamba te bayokaki pongi makasi mpe miso na bango ekomaki kilo.And again Jesus returned and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.

44Boye, atikaki bango mpe akendeki lisusu mosika ; mpe, mpo na mbala ya misato, abondelaki na maloba kaka wana.So He left them and went away once more and prayed a third time, saying the same thing.

45Azongaki lisusu epai bayekoli na Ye bazalaki, mpe alobaki na bango : — Bozali kaka kokoba kolala pongi mpe kopema ? Ngonga ekoki ; Mwana na Moto akokabama na maboko ya bato ya masumu.Then He returned to the disciples and said, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour is near, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

46Botelema ; tokende. Moto oyo ateki Ngai azali koya.Rise, let us go! See, My betrayer is approaching!”

47Wana Yesu azalaki nanu koloba, Yuda, moko kati na bayekoli zomi na mibale, akomaki elongo na bato ebele oyo basimbaki mipanga mpe banzete ; ezalaki bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe bakambi ya bato nde batindaki bango.While Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived, accompanied by a large crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and elders of the people.

48Moto oyo atekaki Yesu apesaki bango elembo moko ; alobaki na bango : « Moto oyo ngai nakopesa beze, ezali nde ye ; bokanga ye. »Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The One I kiss is the man; arrest Him.”

49Mbala moko, apusanaki pene ya Yesu mpe alobaki na Ye : — Mbote, Moteyi ! Mpe apesaki Ye beze.Going directly to Jesus, he said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” and kissed Him.

50Yesu alobaki na ye : — Molingami na Ngai, likambo oyo oyei kosala awa, sala yango. Bongo bato mosusu oyo bayaki elongo na ye bapusanaki, basimbaki Yesu na makasi mpe bakangaki Ye.“Friend,” Jesus replied, “do what you came for.” Then the men stepped forward, seized Jesus, and arrested Him.

51Moko kati na baninga ya Yesu asembolaki loboko, abimisaki mopanga na ye wuta na ebombelo na yango, abetaki yango mosali ya mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe akataki ye litoyi.At this, one of Jesus’ companions drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear.

52Kasi Yesu alobaki na ye : — Zongisa mopanga na yo kati na ebombelo na yango, pamba te bato nyonso oyo babundaka na mopanga bakokufa na nzela ya mopanga.“Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him. “For all who draw the sword will die by the sword.

53Okanisi ete nakoki te kobenga Tata na Ngai, oyo akoki mpe mbala moko kotinda ba-anjelu koleka bankoto zomi mpo na koya kosunga Ngai ?Are you not aware that I can call on My Father, and He will at once put at My disposal more than twelve legions of angels?

54Nzokande, soki mpe esalemi ndenge wana, Makomi ekokokisama te ; pamba te ezali koloba ete makambo nyonso wana esengeli kosalema bongo.But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that say it must happen this way?”

55Kaka na ngonga yango, Yesu alobaki na ebele ya bato : — Boni, nakomi motomboki mpo ete boya kokanga Ngai na mipanga mpe na banzete ? Nazalaki kovanda mikolo nyonso kati na lopango ya Tempelo mpo na kopesa malakisi na Ngai, mpe bokangaki Ngai te.At that time Jesus said to the crowd, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me as you would an outlaw? Every day I sat teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest Me.

56Kasi makambo oyo nyonso esalemi mpo ete Makomi ya basakoli ekokisama. Bongo bayekoli nyonso basundolaki Ye mpe bakimaki.But this has all happened so that the writings of the prophets would be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples deserted Him and fled.

57Bato oyo bakangaki Yesu bamemaki Ye liboso ya Kayifa, mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe, epai wapi balakisi ya Mobeko mpe bakambi ya bato basanganaki.Those who had arrested Jesus led Him away to the house of Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and elders had gathered.

58Petelo azalaki kolanda Yesu na mosika, kino na ndako ya mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe ; akotaki kati na lopango mpe avandaki elongo na bakengeli mpo na kotala ndenge makambo ekosuka.But Peter followed Him at a distance, right up to the courtyard of the high priest. And he went in and sat down with the guards to see the outcome.

59Nzokande bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe bato nyonso ya Likita-Monene ya Bayuda bazalaki koluka litatoli moko oyo ekobimisa polele mabe ya Yesu mpo ete bakoka kokatela Ye etumbu ya kufa,Now the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking false testimony against Jesus in order to put Him to death.

60kasi bazwaki yango te, atako bato mingi bakendeki mpo na kokosela Ye makambo. Bongo, bato mibale bayakiBut they did not find any, though many false witnesses came forward. Finally two came forward

61mpe balobaki : — Moto oyo alobaki : « Ngai nakoki kobuka Tempelo ya Nzambe mpe kotonga yango lisusu na mikolo misato. »and declared, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days.’”

62Mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe atelemaki mpe atunaki Yesu : — Boni, ozali te na liloba ya kozongisa ? Olobi nini liboso ya makambo oyo bazali kofunda yo na yango ?So the high priest stood up and asked Him, “Have You no answer? What are these men testifying against You?”

63Kasi Yesu abatelaki kimia. Boye mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe alobaki na Ye : — Na Kombo ya Nzambe na bomoi, napesi yo mitindo : « Yebisa biso soki ozali Klisto, Mwana na Nzambe. »But Jesus remained silent. Then the high priest said to Him, “I charge You under oath by the living God: Tell us if You are the Christ, the Son of God.”

64Yesu azongiselaki ye : — Otatoli yango. Kasi nazali koloba na bino : Kobanda sik’oyo, bokomona Mwana na Moto kovanda na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali ya Nkolo-Na-Nguya-Nyonso mpe koya na nkembo na likolo ya mapata ya Likolo.“You have said it yourself,” Jesus answered. “But I say to all of you, from now on you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power and coming on the clouds of heaven.”

65Mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe apasolaki bilamba na ye mpe alobaki : — Afingi Nzambe ! Mpo na nini koluka lisusu batatoli ? Bino moko boyoki ndenge nini afingi Nzambe !At this, the high priest tore his clothes and declared, “He has blasphemed! Why do we need any more witnesses? Look, now you have heard the blasphemy.

66Bokanisi nini mpo na yango ? Bazongisaki : — Abongi na kufa.What do you think?” “He deserves to die,” they answered.

67Babwakelaki Ye soyi na elongi mpe babetaki Ye makofi ; bato mosusu babetaki Ye bambataThen they spit in His face and struck Him. Others slapped Him

68mpe balobaki : — Klisto, sakola kati na biso ; yebisa biso moto oyo abeti yo !and said, “Prophesy to us, Christ! Who hit You?”

69Na tango wana, Petelo avandaki libanda, kati na lopango ya kati. Mwasi mosali moko apusanaki pene na ye mpe alobaki : — Yo mpe, ozalaki elongo na Yesu, moto ya Galile.Meanwhile, Peter was sitting out in the courtyard, and a servant girl came up to him. “You also were with Jesus the Galilean,” she said.

70Kasi Petelo awanganaki na miso ya bato nyonso : — Nayebi te makambo oyo ozali koloba !But he denied it before them all: “I do not know what you are talking about.”

71Wana Petelo azalaki kokende na ekuke mpo na kobima, mwasi mosali mosusu amonaki ye mpe alobaki na bato oyo bazalaki wana : — Moto oyo azalaki elongo na Yesu ya Nazareti.When Peter had gone out to the gateway, another servant girl saw him and said to the people there, “This man was with Jesus of Nazareth.”

72Petelo awanganaki yango lisusu na kolapa ndayi : — Nayebi moto wana te !And again he denied it with an oath: “I do not know the man!”

73Sima na mwa tango moke, bato oyo bazalaki wana bapusanaki mpe balobaki na Petelo : — Ezali ya solo, yo mpe ozali moko kati na bato wana ; elobeli na yo ezali kofunda yo.After a little while, those standing nearby came up to Peter. “Surely you are one of them,” they said, “for your accent gives you away.”

74Bongo Petelo abandaki kolapa ndayi esangana na bilakeli mabe : — Tika ete Nzambe alakela ngai mabe soki nakosi ! Nalapi ndayi : Nayebi moto yango te ! Mpe, mbala moko, soso elelaki.At that he began to curse and swear to them, “I do not know the man!” And immediately a rooster crowed.

75Bongo Petelo akanisaki maloba ya Yesu : « Liboso ete soso elela, okowangana Ngai mbala misato. » Abimaki mpe alelaki makasi na libanda.Then Peter remembered the word that Jesus had spoken: “Before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.” And he went outside and wept bitterly.
