Mark 15 (MGV) · Opened

1Ekwakusa, agolu akolongu baketangana pamu na aseja, na abola ba malagalaki na bandu boa ba pasengu bajetangannya kunkonga Yesu pengu nu kumpeleka kwaka Pilatu.Early in the morning, the chief priests, elders, scribes, and the whole Sanhedrin devised a plan. They bound Jesus, led Him away, and handed Him over to Pilate.

2Pilatu andalukiya Yesu, “Boo wehapa lee gu Nkolongu wa Ayaude?” Yesu jaapwagila. “Ena, ngati egupwagike weapa.”So Pilate questioned Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied.

3Agolu akolongu buntakila Yesu kwa malobi gangi ginge.And the chief priests began to accuse Him of many things.

4Pilatu andalukiya kabee Yesu, “Boo, mbona ngasegupwaga lilobe? Joannya ebugutaki kwa malobi gingi.”Then Pilate questioned Him again, “Have You no answer? Look how many charges they are bringing against You!”

5Lakini Yesu ngasejapwagiki lilobe, mbaki Pilatu jasangii.But to Pilate’s amazement, Jesus made no further reply.

6Kila Lisoba likolongu la Pasaka, Pilatu jayobali kunhogule mpugwa jumu jobumpala.Now it was Pilate’s custom at the feast to release to the people a prisoner of their choosing.

7Ndienu jabii mundu jumu joankema Balaba, jojuwe jabii ankongiki pamu na bangi babatei puju nukukoma bandu.And a man named Barabbas was imprisoned with the rebels who had committed murder during the insurrection.

8Bandu bangi bunzendila Pilato, bundoba jwaatendila ngati kawaida jaki.So the crowd went up and began asking Pilate to keep his custom.

9Pilatu jalalukya, “Boo, mpala nunhogulya Bambu Nkolongu juku Uyahude?”“Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?” Pilate asked.

10Jwapwaaga hela ndaba jwamanyiki agolu akolongu bumpelika Yesu kwaki ndaba babia bumbone wipu.For he knew it was out of envy that the chief priests had handed Jesus over.

11Lakini agolu akolongu bakolua bandu bundoba pilatu jaabopulya Balaba badala jaka Yesu.But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release Barabbas to them instead.

12Pilatu jalalukya kabee, “Ndienu, mpala nunhengila ki mundu jomunkema Nkolongu jwa Ayaude hojo?”So Pilate asked them again, “What then do you want me to do with the One you call the King of the Jews?”

13Bandu boa bajamalya kabee, “Unkomangalya punsalaba!”And they shouted back, “Crucify Him!”

14Lakini pilatu jalalukya, “Ndaba jakii! Jutei kihakau bole?” Lakini bombi bajonzukya kujamalii. “Nkomangaliya punsalaba!”“Why?” asked Pilate. “What evil has He done?” But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify Him!”

15Pilatu japala, jwapala nsambi wa bandu gola gwiyoma, ndienu andekakya Balaba kuhuma muligelesa. Jwaapwgila bandu bunndapula Yesu iboku nukukomangale punsalaba.And wishing to satisfy the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged, and handed Him over to be crucified.

16Ndipala manzolinzoli bumpelika Yesu pasengu ja nyumba jaka Pilatu, jojabii nkolongu ju ndema Ndienu baakusanya manzolinzoli boka.Then the soldiers led Jesus away into the palace (that is, the Praetorium) and called the whole company together.

17Bunhwatika Yesu ingobu ja zambalau ngati Bambu Nkolongu, balenganakiya hingu ja miha, bunhwatika pamutu.They dressed Him in a purple robe, twisted together a crown of thorns, and set it on His head.

18Batumbuka kundamuu, “Jambuoti, u Nkolongu wa Ayaude!”And they began to salute Him: “Hail, King of the Jews!”

19Bundapula pamutu na nndai, nu kunhuni imata, bapega magoti nu kunzinamii.They kept striking His head with a staff and spitting on Him. And they knelt down and bowed before Him.

20Ebaboka batenda kundongama, buhulaa ingobu ya zambalau ye yela, nukunhwatika ingobu yake, ndi bumpelika nukunkomangale punsalaba.After they had mocked Him, they removed the purple robe and put His own clothes back on Him. Then they led Him out to crucify Him.

21Pababii mwiindela, baketangini na mundu jumwa ankema Simoni, mwenei juku Kilene. Bombi babia ahengo baka Alekizanda na Lupu. Na muda we hogu jabia juhuma kukijijini. Manzolinzoli bundasimisa Simoni kutogo nsalaba gojabii naku Yesu.Now Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, was passing by on his way in from the country, and the soldiers forced him to carry the cross of Jesus.

22Ndipala, bumpelika Yesu mbaka pandu pabakema Goligota, maana jaki, pandu papabonikana ngati “Pandu piliupa lu umutu.”They brought Jesus to a place called Golgotha, which means The Place of the Skull.

23Ndienu, bumpekya Yesu divai jeahangagini mitela jebijikema manemane. Lakini Yesu jatenda kukanaThere they offered Him wine mixed with myrrh, but He did not take it.

24Ndienu bunkomangalya punsalaba, nukubagana ingobu yaki kwa gudugudu ili amanya nyaa jupata ingobu boo.And they crucified Him. They also divided His garments by casting lots to decide what each of them would take.

25Ekwabia lisaa la tatu pulukela pabunkomangalya punsalaba.It was the third hour when they crucified Him.

26Na panani ju nsalaba baandiki malobi gu kuntaki ganga, “NKOLONGU JWA AYAUDI.”And the charge inscribed against Him read: THE KING OF THE JEWS.

27Papuje baakomangalya bii habeli mumisalaba pambipi na Yesu, jumu upandi wa malele na jongi upandi wa mangega waka Yesu.Along with Jesus, they crucified two robbers, one on His right and one on His left.

28Ndienu gatimi Mahandiku gagapwaga, “Ambei likundi limu na bandu abaya.”Not in the BSB

29Bandu bababiapeta pandu pala, bannyua imutu yabu nu kuntondo nu kupwaga, “Ooo! Wehapa ndi wewapwaga witunula Nyumba jaka Sapanga nukusenga kwa masoba matato!And those who passed by heaped abuse on Him, shaking their heads and saying, “Aha! You who are going to destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days,

30Enu, guhuluka munsalaba ulikombula wamwete!”come down from the cross and save Yourself!”

31Nabombi agolu akolongu pamu na abola bamalagalaki bundongama nu kumpwagani beni na beni, “Jahokua bangi, lakini kulihoko mweni ngakuwesa!In the same way, the chief priests and scribes mocked Him among themselves, saying, “He saved others, but He cannot save Himself!

32Eti jombi Kilisitu, bambu nkolongu juku Izilaeli! Ndienu juhuluka kuhuma punsalaba ili tumbona nukunhobale.” Hata bandu bangi bala babaakomangali mumisalaba pambipi jaki nabombi batenda kuntondoo.Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, so that we may see and believe!” And even those who were crucified with Him berated Him.

33Kutumbuka lisaa la sita lyobamutu mbaka lisaa la tisa pakamii lwii lwayekalya nndema woka.From the sixth hour until the ninth hour darkness came over all the land.

34Lisaa la tisa pakamii Yesu jalela kwa sauti ngolongu, koni jakapwaga, “Eloi, Eloi lema Sabakitani?” Maana jaki, “Sapanga wango, Sapanga wango, ndaba jaki guneka kajika jango?”At the ninth hour, Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”

35Bandu bangi babajemiki pala pabajoa hela bapwaga, “Joanya! Ankema Elia.”When some of those standing nearby heard this, they said, “Behold, He is calling Elijah.”

36Mundu jumu jabutuka, jajubika kipongu divai jejibaba, nukujibeka panani ja nndai, ambekila pundomu nukupwaga, “Lendalya tugubona ana Elia juhika kuguhuluu punsalaba jehapa!”And someone ran and filled a sponge with sour wine. He put it on a reed and held it up for Jesus to drink, saying, “Leave Him alone. Let us see if Elijah comes to take Him down.”

37Ndipala Yesu jajamalya kwa makili, ndienu jatenda kuwa.But Jesus let out a loud cry and breathed His last.

38Kipindi sela, lipazia la Nyumba jaka Sapanga lakajuka pikilanda ipandi ibeli tumbuka kunani mbaka pai.And the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom.

39Nkolongu wa manzolinzoli jumwa jojabia jujemiki palongi jaki pajabona namuna jejakua Yesu japwaga, “Sakaka mundu hajo jwabii Mwana waka Sapanga!”When the centurion standing there in front of Jesus saw how He had breathed His last, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God!”

40Babii kabee aka mbomba babalingalya sukutali, kati jabu jakabii Malia juku Magidala na Salomi na Malia amabu baka nkombu Yakobu na Yose.And there were also women watching from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salome.

41Aka mbomba haba ndi babunzengalya Yesu pajabii ku Galilaya nukunzangatii. Kwabii na aka mbomba bangi bingi babahika ku Yelusalemu pamu najombi.These women had followed Jesus and ministered to Him while He was in Galilee, and there were many other women who had come up to Jerusalem with Him.

42Ekwahika pakamii. Helilabia lisoba lukubeka sapi, yani lisoba lelilongulii Lisoba lu Kupomulela.Now it was already evening. Since it was Preparation Day (that is, the day before the Sabbath),

43Papuje, jahika Josepu mwenei juku Alimatayo, ntenga wa Sengu ngolongu, jwabii mundu jwiniisima. Kabee jwabia mundu jojulendale kuhika ku Ukolongu waka Sapanga. Ndienu anzendila Pilatu bila kujogopa, jaaloba bumpekya nhyega jaka Yesu.Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent Council member who himself was waiting for the kingdom of God, boldly went to Pilate to ask for the body of Jesus.

44Pilatu jasangia kujoana Yesu jabia juwii. Ndienu, ankema nkolongu jwa manzolinzoli, andalukiya ana gupetiki muda gwingi toka Yesu pajuwii.Pilate was surprised to hear that Jesus was already dead, so he summoned the centurion to ask if this was so.

45Nkolongu wa alonda hejwabii ampwagi Pilatu Yesu juwii, ampwagila Josepu juku Alimatayo jajukua nhyega jaka Yesu.When Pilate had confirmed it with the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.

46Papuje Josepu jalomba sanda jikitani, jijihelia nhyega je jela nukujiyongulakee sanda. Jabeka mlikabuli lelabii pililibu la soma, ndipala jwilihingalya lilibu likolongu kulibeka pundyangu.So Joseph bought a linen cloth, took down the body of Jesus, wrapped it in the cloth, and placed it in a tomb that had been cut out of the rock. Then he rolled a stone against the entrance to the tomb.

47Nabombi Malia juku Magidala na Malia amabu baka Yose balingaliya papu pabumbei.Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joseph saw where His body was placed.
