Matthew 27 (MSY2020)

1Ezɨ amɨnim dutuzɨma ofa gamir gumazir ekiaba ko Judabar gumazir aruaba Iesus mɨsueghtɨ an aremeghasa akabar kɨri.When morning came, all the chief priests and elders of the people conspired against Jesus to put Him to death.

2Egha me gɨn senbar a ike, egha a inigha ghua Romɨn gavmanɨn gumazir ekiam Pailatɨn agharim gatɨ.They bound Him, led Him away, and handed Him over to Pilate the governor.

3Ezɨ Judas, gumazir Iesus isava apanibar agharim gatɨzim, a garima me paza Iesus gamuava a isa kotiam garɨgha ghaze, an aremegham. Ezɨ Judas gara ghaze, kɨ uabɨ arazir kuram gami. Egha uan nɨghnɨzibagh ira. Egha dagɨar silvan 30plan ofa gamir gumazir ekiaba ko Judabar gumazir aruaba a ganɨngiziba inigha ua me danɨngasa zui.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.

4Egha ua kamaghɨn mɨgei, “Kɨ Godɨn damazimɨn arazir kuram gami. Gumazir kɨ ian dafaribagh atɨzim, arazir kuratam gamizir puvatɨ. Ezɨ ia purama a mɨsueghtɨ an aremegham.” Ezɨ me an akam ikaragha kamaghɨn mɨgei, “Kar en bizim puvatɨ. Nɨn bizimra.”“I have sinned by betraying innocent blood,” he said. “What is that to us?” they replied. “You bear the responsibility.”

5Ezɨ Judas dagɨar silvan kaba isa Godɨn Dɨpenim avɨnizir dɨvazimɨn aven da kunigha ghua uabɨ guragha areme.So Judas threw the silver into the temple and left. Then he went away and hanged himself.

6Ezɨ ofa gamir gumazir ekiaba, dagɨar silvan kaba inigha ghaze, “Dagɨar kaba, gumazir ghuzimɨn ivezim. E fo, Moses Osirizir Araziba ghaze, e da isɨ ofa gamir dagɨaba sara dar arɨghan kogham.”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.”

7Egha me akam mɨsuegha dagɨar kaba inigha ghua Mɨnebar Ingangarir Gumazimɨn Nguazim givese. Me ghaze, nguazir otevir kam, gumazir saghon izezibar afamin matmatiamɨn otogham.After conferring together, they used the money to buy the potter’s field as a burial place for foreigners.

8Kamaghɨn amizɨ, nguazir otevir kam, me ziar kam “Ghuzir Nguazim,” a gatɨ. Ezɨ me dughiar kamɨn ikegha iza, datɨrɨghɨn, nguazir kam me ziar kamra a garɨgha iti.That is why it has been called the Field of Blood to this day.

9Kamaghɨn amizɨ, Godɨn akam inigha izir gumazim Jeremaia mɨkemezir akaba guizɨn otifi. A kamaghɨn mɨgɨa ghaze, “Me 30plan silvan dagɨaba ini, kar Israelia gumazir kam givezasa atɨzir ivezim.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,

10Egha Ekiam na mɨkemezɨ moghɨra, me dagɨar kabar Mɨnebar Ingarir Gumazimɨn Nguazim givese.”and they gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord had commanded me.”

11Ezɨ Iesus ghua gavmanɨn gumazir ekiam Pailatɨn damazimɨn tuzɨma Pailat kamaghɨn an azai, “Nɨ Judabar atrivim, o?” Ezɨ Iesus ghaze, “Are, nɨ mɨkemezɨ moghɨra.”Meanwhile Jesus stood before the governor, who questioned Him: “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied.

12Ezɨ ofa gamir gumazir ekiaba koma Judabar gumazir aruaba akar avɨriba isa Iesus gasi. Ezɨ a men akatam ikarvazir puvatɨ.And when He was accused by the chief priests and elders, He gave no answer.

13Kamaghɨn amizɨ, Pailat ua kamaghɨn an azai, “Me nɨ gasir akar avɨrir kaba, nɨ da barazi, o?”Then Pilate asked Him, “Do You not hear how many charges they are bringing against You?”

14Ezɨ Iesus Pailatɨn akatam ikarvazir puvatɨ, ezɨ Pailat nɨghnɨzir avɨribagh ami.But Jesus gave no answer, not even to a single charge, much to the governor’s amazement.

15Azeniba bar, Romɨn gavmanɨn gumazir ekiam arazir kam gami, a isar ekiar kamɨn dughiamɨn, a kalabusɨn itir gumazitam ateghtɨ, an azenimɨn mangam. Kalabusɨn itir gumazir gumazamiziba ifongezir manam, Pailat a isɨ me bagh anemangam.Now it was the governor’s custom at the feast to release to the crowd a prisoner of their choosing.

16Ezɨ dughiar kamɨn gumazir arazir kurabar ziam itir mam, a kalabusɨn iti. An ziam Barabas.At that time they were holding a notorious prisoner named Barabbas.

17Ezɨ gumazamizir avɨriba iza uari akufa, ezɨ Pailat kamaghɨn men azai, “Ia tina gifonge, eghtɨ kɨ ia bagh anetaghɨragham. Kɨ Barabas ataghɨragham, o Iesus, me a dɨbora ghaze, ‘Gumazir God Uam E Iniasa Mɨsevezim,’ kɨ anetaghɨragham?”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?”

18Pailat fo, me Iesus amir biziba bagha naviba ikuvava, a inigha kotiamɨn ize, egha kamaghɨn men azai.For he knew it was out of envy that they had handed Jesus over to him.

19Egha Pailat uaghan kotiabagh amir dabirabimɨn aperaghav itima, an amuim a bagha akam amaga ghaze, “Kɨ dɨmangan irebamɨn arazir kuraba puvatɨzir gumazir kamɨn gani, egha bar oseme. Kamaghɨn, nɨ arazitamɨn a damuan markɨ.”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.”

20Ezɨ ofa gamir gumazir ekiaba koma Judabar gumazir aruaba, gumazamizir avɨrimɨn navibagh iniva ghaze, me Pailatɨn azangtɨ, a Barabas ategh, egh Iesus mɨsueghtɨ, an aremegham.But the chief priests and elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus put to death.

21Ezɨ gavmanɨn gumazir ekiam ua men aza ghaze, “Ia gumazir manam gifonge, eghtɨ kɨ anetaghɨragham?” Ezɨ gumazamiziba dɨa ghaze, “E Barabas gifonge.”“Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” asked the governor. “Barabbas,” they replied.

22Ezɨ Pailat men azai, “Eghtɨ, Iesus me a dɨbora ghaze, ‘God Ua E Iniasa Mɨsevezir Gumazim,’ kɨ manmaghɨn a damuam?” Ezɨ me bar dɨa ghaze, “A isɨ ter ighuvimɨn a gafugh!”“What then should I do with Jesus who is called Christ?” Pilate asked. They all answered, “Crucify Him!”

23Ezɨ Pailat kamaghɨn men azara, “Manmagh su? An arazir kurar manam gami?” Ezɨ me bar pamten dɨa ghaze, “A isɨ ter ighuvim gafugh!”“Why?” asked Pilate. “What evil has He done?” But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify Him!”

24Ezɨ Pailat datɨrɨghɨn fo, me an akatam bareghan kogham. Egha a gari, mɨdorozir ekiam otivasava ami. Egha dɨpam inigha men damazibar uan dafariba rua ghaze, “Gumazir kamɨn ovevem, a nan osɨmtɨzim puvatɨ. Kar ian bizimra.”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.”

25Ezɨ gumazamiziba a ikarvagha ghaze, “An ovevemɨn osɨmtɨzim mar en ikɨ, egh en boribar ikɨ.”All the people answered, “His blood be on us and on our children!”

26Kamaghɨn amizɨ, Pailat me bagha Barabas ataki. Egha mɨdorozir gumazibav geima, me benibar Iesus ifozoroke. Egha gɨn a isa mɨdorozir gumazibar agharim gatɨ, eghtɨ me a isɨ ter ighuvim gafugham.So Pilate released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged, and handed Him over to be crucified.

27Ezɨ gavmanɨn gumazir ekiamɨn mɨdorozir gumaziba Iesus inigha, gavmanɨn dɨpenir ekiamɨn mɨriamɨn aven ghuzɨ, mɨdorozir gumaziba bar uari akuvazɨ, Iesus men tongɨn tughav iti.Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium and gathered the whole company around Him.

28Egha me an korotiaba suegha, korotiar aghevir ruarir mam isa a garu.They stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him.

29Egha me dɨkoniba itir beniba inigha atrivimɨn dapanir asuamɨn mɨn an ingarigha, an dapanim garu. Egha fidizir mam isava an agharir guvim gatɨzɨ, an an suira. Ezɨ me tevibar apɨra a dɨpova ghaze, “Judabar Atrivim, nɨrara atrivir ekiam!”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!”

30Egha me a giparava a suirazir fidizim inigha an dapanim mɨsosi.Then they spit on Him and took the staff and struck Him on the head repeatedly.

31Me arazir kabar a gamua a dɨpovegha gɨvagha, korotiar me a gaghuiziba suegha, uam ananaba a gaghui. Egha a isa ter ighuvim a gafughafughasa an akua zui.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.

32Ezɨ mɨdorozir gumaziba Iesus inigha, nguibar ekiam ategha ghua, Sairinian nguibamɨn gumazir mam bato. An ziam Saimon. Egha me a gakaghorima, a Iesusɨn ter ighuvim gisaghpu.Along the way they found a man from Cyrene, named Simon, and they forced him to carry the cross of Jesus.

33Egha me ghua danganir mamɨn otifi, an ziam Golgota. (Danganir kamɨn ziamɨn mɨngarim kamakɨn, Dapanir Agharir Danganim.)And when they came to a place called Golgotha, which means The Place of the Skull,

34Ezɨ me danganir kamɨn Iesus damasa me dɨpar anɨnganir mam wain sara a veregha, mam inigha Iesus ganɨdi. Ezɨ a muziarimram amegha puram anetaki.they offered Him wine to drink, mixed with gall; but after tasting it, He refused to drink it.

35Ezɨ mɨdorozir gumaziba Iesus isa ter ighuvimɨn a gafu. Egha an korotiaba tuiragh uari danɨngasa satu gikararai.When they had crucified Him, they divided up His garments by casting lots.

36Egha danganir kamɨn apiagha anesavsuisi.And sitting down, they kept watch over Him there.

37Me an dapanim gisɨn, an kotim gamizir mɨgɨrɨgɨam osiri. Men osirizir akam ghaze, “Kar Iesus, a Judabar Atrivim.”Above His head they posted the written charge against Him: THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

38Me gumazir okɨava mɨdorozibagh amizir pumuning, Iesusɨn boroghɨn uaghan aning agura. Me mav isa Iesusɨn agharir guvimɨn itir ter ighuvim gafu, egha mav isa agharir kɨriamɨn itir ter ighuvim gafu.Two robbers were crucified with Him, one on His right and the other on His left.

39Ezɨ gumazamiziba mangɨ izegh gamua Iesus dɨpova, uan dapaniba roa ghaze,And those who passed by heaped abuse on Him, shaking their heads

40“Nɨ, gumazir Godɨn Dɨpenim akarigh aruer pumuning ko mɨkezimɨn uam an ingarasa mɨkemezim! Nɨ uabɨ uabɨn akuragh! Egh nɨ guizbangɨra Godɨn Otarim, nɨ ter ighuvim ategh izighirɨ.”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!”

41Ezɨ kamaghɨra ofa gamir gumazir ekiaba ko Judan Arazibagh fozir gumaziba ko Judabar gumazir aruaba izava a dɨpova ghaze,In the same way, the chief priests, scribes, and elders mocked Him, saying,

42“A gumazir igharazibar akurvasi, egha uabɨ uabɨn akurvaghan ibura. A Israelian Atrivim, kamaghɨn a ter ighuvim ategh izighirɨ, eghtɨ e nɨghnɨzir gavgavim an ikiam.“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.

43A nɨghnɨzir gavgavim Godɨn ikia, egha ghaze, kɨ Godɨn Otarim. Eghtɨ God guizbangɨra ifongiam an ikɨva, datɨrɨghɨn an akuraghtɨ, e ganika!”He trusts in God. Let God deliver Him now if He wants Him. For He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”

44Ezɨ kamaghɨra okɨmakɨar gumazir Iesusɨn boroghɨn ter ighuvimningɨn guraghav itimning, uaghan akar kabar a dɨpova a mɨgei.In the same way, even the robbers who were crucified with Him berated Him.

45Ezɨ aruem iza pazaghar torim gatima, mɨtatem nguazimɨn itir nguibaba bar da avaragha ghua, dughiam 3 kloghɨn guaratɨzimɨn tu.From the sixth hour until the ninth hour darkness came over all the land.

46Egha dughiam 3 kloghɨn boroghɨra izima, Iesus pamten kamaghɨn dei, “Eli, Eli, lama sabaktani?” Akar kamɨn mɨngarim kamakɨn, “Nan God, nan God, nɨ tizim bagha na ataki?”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?”

47Ezɨ roghɨra tuivighav itir darazi akar kam baregha ghaze, “Gumazir kam ti Elaijan dei.”When some of those standing there heard this, they said, “He is calling Elijah.”

48Egha men mav zuamɨra ivegha ghua dɨpamɨn suizir bizir mam inigha wainɨn afangtɨzim isava a gatɨ. Ezɨ wain a gizɨvazɨma, an a isa aghorir mam gatɨ. Egha aneremasa a isa Iesusɨn amadi.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.

49Ezɨ marazi mɨgɨa ghaze, “Ia tegh, e ganika, Elaija ti izɨva an akuragham, o puvatɨ.”But the others said, “Leave Him alone. Let us see if Elijah comes to save Him.”

50Ezɨ Iesus ua pamtem diagha uan duam suegha areme.When Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, He yielded up His spirit.

51Ezɨ dughiar kamra, Godɨn Dɨpenimɨn guraghav itir inir ekiam pɨn ikegha tongɨra bigha, ghuaghira vɨn otogha akuar pumuning irɨ. Ezɨ mɨkɨmkɨzim otozɨma, dagɨar ekiaba bɨaghire.At that moment the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth quaked, and the rocks were split.

52Ezɨ matmatiaba kuaghirima, Godɨn gumazamizir avɨrir ariaghireziba ua dɨkavigha,The tombs broke open, and the bodies of many saints who had fallen asleep were raised.

53egha uan moziba ataki. Eghtɨ gɨn Iesus dɨkavightɨma, me nguibar ekiam Jerusalemɨn aven mangam. Eghtɨ avɨrir ekiam men ganam.After Jesus’ resurrection, when they had come out of the tombs, they entered the holy city and appeared to many people.

54Ezɨ 100plan mɨdorozir gumazibar garir gumazir dapanir mam, uan mɨdorozir gumaziba ko, me garima mɨkɨmkɨzim otozɨma, arazir kaba otivima, me bar puvɨram atiati. Egha me kamaghɨn mɨgei, “Bar guizbangɨra, gumazir kam Godɨn Otarimra.”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.”

55Amizir avɨriba uaghan izegha iti. Me Galilin Distrik ategha Iesusɨn akurvaghasa an gɨn ize. Amizir kaba mong saghon tuivighav ikia gari.And many women were there, watching from a distance. They had followed Jesus from Galilee to minister to Him.

56Men tongɨn, Makdalan nguibamɨn amizim Maria, ko Jems ko Josepɨn amebam Maria, ko Sebedin otarimningɨn amebam.Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of Zebedee’s sons.

57Ezɨ amɨnim pɨrasava amima, Arimatean nguibar ekiamɨn gumazir mam izi. An ziam Josep, a dagɨar avɨriba itir gumazim.When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea named Joseph, who himself was a disciple of Jesus.

58A uaghan Iesusɨn suren gumazir mam. Egha Pailat bagha ghua Iesusɨn kuam iniasa an azai. Ezɨ Pailat mɨdorozir gumazibav kemezɨ, me Iesusɨn kuam isa Josep ganɨngi.He went to Pilate to ask for the body of Jesus, and Pilate ordered that it be given to him.

59Ezɨ Josep a inigha inir ghurghurir aghuir mamɨn a rɨki.So Joseph took the body, wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,

60Egha an kuam inigha ghua, a isa ua bagha okorezir mozir igiam gatɨ. Egha Josep dagɨar ekiar mam poghpuegha ghua mozimɨn akam gasaragha, anepɨri. A kamaghɨn amigha ghu.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.

61Ezɨ Maria, Makdalan nguibamɨn amizim, koma Marian igharazir mam, aning mozimɨn boroghɨn aperaghav ikia, an gara iti.Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were sitting there opposite the tomb.

62Ezɨ Sabat bagha bizibar kɨrir dughiam gɨfa, ezɨ an gɨn izir dughiamɨn ofa gamir gumazir ekiaba ko Farisiba Pailat bagha ghue.The next day, the one after Preparation Day, the chief priests and Pharisees assembled before Pilate.

63Me ghuegha kamaghɨn a mɨgei, “Gumazir ekiam, e gumazir ifavarir kam ikia mɨkemezir mɨgɨrɨgɨar mam ginɨrɨ. A ghaze, ‘Aruer pumuning ko mɨkezim gɨvaghtɨma kɨ ua dɨkavam.’“Sir,” they said, “we remember that while He was alive that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise again.’

64Kamaghɨn amizɨ, nɨ mɨkemeghtɨ, me mozim aruer pumuning ko mɨkezimɨn deragh anepɨrigh. Puvatɨghtɨma, an suren gumaziba an kuam okemegh, egh gumazamizibav kɨm suam, a ua dɨkafi. Eghtɨ an ifavarir akar kam, a faragha amizir ifavarir akam gafiragham.”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.”

65Ezɨ Pailat kamaghɨn me mɨgei, “Ia mangɨ, mɨdorozir gumaziba inigh me mɨkemeghtɨ, me mozimɨn gan ikɨ. Egh ia mangɨ, mozim apɨrasa ifongezɨ moghɨn, ia damuva, egh bar anepɨrigh.”“You have a guard,” Pilate said. “Go, make the tomb as secure as you know how.”

66Ezɨ me ghua mozim apɨri. Egha ifevimɨn mɨn bizir mam mozir akam gighufa, egh me fogham, gumazitam dagɨam giraghan kogham. Egha mɨdorozir gumaziba arɨghizɨma, me mozimɨn gara iti.So they went and secured the tomb by sealing the stone and posting the guard.
