Matthew 26 (RHGC)

1Zeñtté Isá ttu hotá híin beggún hoiyá óiye, Íba ye Nizor cárit tun ore hoór de,When Jesus had finished saying all these things, He told His disciples,

2“Tuáñra toh zano, dui din baade Azadir-id óibo, aar Manúc or Fua re kúruc ot dí bolla dóridiya zaybo.”“You know that the Passover is two days away, and the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified.”

3Hé októt ḍoóñr imam ókkol edde manúc or murubbi ókkol, Káiyafas hoó de boro imam or mohól ot zoma óiye;At that time the chief priests and elders of the people assembled in the courtyard of the high priest, whose name was Caiaphas,

4aar mili sólla goijjé de, Isá re zuitégori dórifelai zane marifélai bolla.and they conspired to arrest Jesus covertly and kill Him.

5Montor ítara hoór de, “Id or októt no, manúc or bútore úrussul óitofare.”“But not during the feast,” they said, “or there may be a riot among the people.”

6Isá zeñtté Betániyat máze kurus biyaraimma Sáimon or gór ot accíl,While Jesus was in Bethany in the home of Simon the Leper,

7héṛe eggwá mayafua ye fúañti fattór or háñrit góri bicí moóngga añtor looi Íbar hañse aiccé, aar Isá hána háito boiccé de októt híba ye añtor gún Isár matát ḍálidiye.a woman came to Him with an alabaster jar of expensive perfume, which she poured on His head as He reclined at the table.

8Cárit tun ottu híyan dekí gom nó lage, aar hoór de, “Iín borbad kiyá diféler?When the disciples saw this, they were indignant and asked, “Why this waste?

9E añtor gún de boóut ṭiañ di besi gorif ókkol ore diifélai faitto.”This perfume could have been sold at a high price, and the money given to the poor.”

10Montor Isá ye híyan zani fari ítara re hoór de, “Tuáñra mayafua wa re ferecan kiyá gorór? Ibáh ye Añr bálai éna goijjé.Aware of this, Jesus asked, “Why are you bothering this woman? She has done a beautiful deed to Me.

11Gorib ókkol toh tuáñrar fúañti nitti asé, montor Añré tuáñra nitti no faiba.The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have Me.

12Ibáh ye Añr gaat añtor ḍálidiye de híyan óilde ibáh ye Añré dohón olla toiyar gorí bolla goijjé deh.By pouring this perfume on Me, she has prepared My body for burial.

13Hétolla Añí tuáñra re sóiyi hoóir, fura duniyait zeṛé-zeṛé e kúchóbor tobolik gorá zaybo, e mayafua wa ye ziyán goijjé híyan ore yó ibáhr yadgari ísafe héṛe-héṛe howá zaybo.”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.”

14Hétunot baró zon cárit tun ottu ezzon, zar nam niki Yohúdah Iskáriyet, íte ḍoóñr imam ókkol or héṛe giiyé,Then one of the Twelve, the one called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests

15aar hoór de, “Zodi Isá re tuáñrar át ot dóridi, tuáñra añré kii diiba?” Baade ítara ítare tiríc cwa rufar ṭiañ goni diiyé.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.

16Hé októt lóti íte Isá re dóridi bolla moukar talac ot accíl.So from then on Judas looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus.

17Cúṭar-sára Ruṭir-id or foóila din, cárit tune Isár hañse aái fusár gorér de, “Tuáñr ttu hondilla monehoór, Tuñí hái faro fán añára Tuáñr lla Azadir-id or hánar toiyari hoṛé goittám?”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?”

18Íba ye hoór de, “Tuáñra cóor ot fólonar héṛe zoo,” yóggwa re hoibá de, “Ustate hoór de, ‘Añr októ ḍáke; Añí Añr cárit tun or fúañti tuáñr gór ot Azadir-id goríyum.’ ”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.’”

19Tói cárit tune Isá ye ítara re hókum díye de mozin gorí, Azadir-id or hánar toiyari goijjé.So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover.

20Baade zeñtté háñz óiye, Isá baró zon cárit tun or fúañti hána háito boiccé.When evening came, Jesus was reclining with the twelve disciples.

21Ítara háar de októt Íba ye hoór de, “Añí tuáñra re sóiyi hoóir, tuáñra ttu ezzone Añré dóridibo.”And while they were eating, He said to them, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray Me.”

22Hétunot ítara bicí ferecan ói zonfoti Íba ttu fusár gorér de, “Malik, íte bilkúl añí no de no né?”They were deeply grieved and began to ask Him one after another, “Surely not I, Lord?”

23Íba ye ítara re zuwabe hoór de, “Zee Añr fúañti hoddát át ḍáler, íte óilde zee niki Añré dóridibo.Jesus answered, “The one who has dipped his hand into the bowl with Me will betray Me.

24Manúc or Fua toh Íbar baabute zendilla leikká asé héndilla éna zaar; montor afsús manúc uitar uore zar duara Manúc or Fua dóra háibo. Manúc íte toh zormo no óito bóuli ítar lla gom accíl.”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.”

25Hétunot Yohúdah, zee niki Íba re dóridibo íte hoór de, “Rabbí, íte honó añí né?” Isá ye ítare hoór de, “Tui nize híyan hoóifelayos.”Then Judas, who would betray Him, said, “Surely not I, Rabbi?” Jesus answered, “You have said it yourself.”

26Ítara háar de októt, Isá ye ruṭi looi Alla re cúkuriya goijjíl, aar báñgi cárit tun ore dii hoór de, “Looi hóo; yián Añr gaa.”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.”

27Tarfore Íba ye fiyala looi Alla re cúkuriya goijjíl, aar ítara re dii hoór de, “Tuáñra beggúne entú hóo;Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you.

28kiyólla-hoilé iín óilde noya razinama lla Añr lou, ziín ore boóut kiyé guná maf fai bolla ḍálidiyum.This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.

29Añí tuáñra re hoóir, ehón ottu lóti e anggur or roc iín Añí ar na háiyum, otódin zetódin foijjonto tuáñrar fúañti Añr Baf or raijjot noya gori ná hái.”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.”

30Yárbaade ítara eggwá seér gaái, neeli Zaitun Faár ot giiyói.And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

31Tarfore Isá ye ítara re hoór de, “Aijja raitta Añr zoriya tuáñra beggún or dil ot cóok aibó aar dáibagoi; kiyólla-hoilé pak-kalam ot toh endilla asé, ‘Añí sóol soroya re marifélaiyum, tói zák or sóol beggún cíñṛaciñṭṭá óizayboi.’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.’

32Lekin Añré zinda gorá zay baade, Añí tuáñrar age Galil ot zaiyum.”But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”

33Fitore Íba re zuwabe hoór de, “Tuáñr zoriya beggúne iman ottu zailé yo, añí honódin no zaiyum.”Peter said to Him, “Even if all fall away on account of You, I never will.”

34Isá ye íba re hoór de, “Añí toré sóiyi hoóir, aijja raitta ratakurá bak dibar age, tui Añré tin bar inkar goríbi.”“Truly I tell you,” Jesus declared, “this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.”

35Fitore Íba re hoór de, “Zodi añr ttu Tuáñr fúañti mora fore yó, añí Tuáñre inkar no goijjúm.” Héndilla cárit beggúne hoiyé.Peter replied, “Even if I have to die with You, I will never deny You.” And all the other disciples said the same thing.

36Yárbaade Isá ítara re looi ekkán zagat giiyé, ziyán ore Getsámani hoó. Baade Íba ye cárit tun ore hoór de, “Añí woóñt zai dua goijjúmboi, tuáñra iñyót boói táko.”Then Jesus went with His disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and He told them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.”

37Íba ye fúañti Fitor ore edde Zebedair fua duní wa re loigiyé, aar héṛe Íba ttu ocánti edde bicí ferecan lagat doijje.He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee and began to be sorrowful and deeply distressed.

38Hétunot Íba ye ítara re hoór de, “Bicí ocántiye Añr foran neelizaytói sár. Tuáñra iñyót táki Añr fúañti seton táko.”Then He said to them, “My soul is consumed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with Me.”

39Baade Íba héntu ekkágori muúmmikka zai, uúiñtoi fori dua gorér de, “Ó Añr Baf, zodi ói faille, e duk-mosibot or fiyala yibá Añr ttu dur óuk; montor toóu Añr moncá mozin no, bólke Tuáñr moncá mozin óuk.”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.”

40Baade Íba cárit tun or héṛe aái ítara re gúm ot loot faiyé. Íba ye Fitor ore hoór de, “Tuáñra Añr fúañti ek gónḍa úddwa seton táki no faroór dé?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.

41Seton táko aar dua goró, zeéne entán ot no foro; becók ruh ttu monehoór, montor jisím komzur deh.”“Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”

42Íba ye dusárabar zai endilla dua gorér, “Ó Añr Baf, Añí na háile zodi e fiyala yibá Añr ttu dur no, tóoile Tuáñr moncá fura óuk.”A second time He went away and prayed, “My Father, if this cup cannot pass unless I drink it, may Your will be done.”

43Íba aái ítara re abar gúm ot loot faiyé, kiyólla-hoilé ítarar suk gúme bór óigilgoi.And again Jesus returned and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.

44Íba ye ítara re abar erizai ekí ḍóilla hotá hoói tisárabar dua goijjé.So He left them and went away once more and prayed a third time, saying the same thing.

45Baade Íba cárit tun or héṛe aái ítara re hoór de, “Tuáñra aijjó gúm ot edde aram gorát asó dé? Soó, októ aáigiyoi, Manúc or Fua re gunágar ókkol or át ot dóridiya zaybo.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.

46Uṛó, zaigói. Soó, Añré dóridoya ḍáke foóñiccegai.”Rise, let us go! See, My betrayer is approaching!”

47Íba ye híin hoór de októt, Yohúdah foóñiccegai, zee niki baró zon cárit tun ottu ezzon. Ítar fúañti ḍoóñr ek dol manúc toluwar edde laṛí-cúṛa looi aiccé, zetará re difeṛáiye de óilde ḍoóñr imam ókkole edde manúc or murubbi ókkole.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.

48Zee niki Íba re dóri dér, íte tará re endilla hoói ekkán nicán díyl, “Añí zibá re appá diyum, manúc Íba; Íba re gereftar gorífelaiyo.”Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The One I kiss is the man; arrest Him.”

49Yohúdah éhon Isár íñyot aái hoór de, “Rabbí, assalamu alaikum!” Héen hoói Íba re appá díye.Going directly to Jesus, he said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” and kissed Him.

50Isá ye ítare hoór de, “Douós, tui ziyán olla aiccós híyan gor.” Éhon ítara aái Isá re dóri gereftar gorífelaiye.“Friend,” Jesus replied, “do what you came for.” Then the men stepped forward, seized Jesus, and arrested Him.

51Hétunot Isár fúañti accíl de ítara ttu ezzone nizor toluwar neelaiye, aar híyan solai boro imam or gulam or han haṛifelaiye.At this, one of Jesus’ companions drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear.

52Isá ye íba re hoór de, “Tor toluwar ḍaf ot gólai er; kiyólla-hoilé zetará oinno zon or uore toluwar sola, ítara beggún toluware beh moribó.“Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him. “For all who draw the sword will die by the sword.

53Tui ki no zanos, zodi Añí Añr Baf ore aros gorí Íba ye Añré éhon-éhon ázar-ázar fírista ókkol fóous or ḍóilla góri difeṛáibo dé?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?

54Lekin héen óile, endilla ówa foribó hoiyé de pak-kalam or hé hotá keéngori fura óibo?”But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that say it must happen this way?”

55Hé októt Isá ye manúc or dol lwá re hoór de, “Tuáñra ḍahañit dóitto aiccó fángori toluwar edde laṛí-cúṛa lói Añré gereftar goittó neeilló dé? Añí toh fottí din baitul-mukaddos ot boói taalim ditam, aar héñtte de Añré gereftar nó goró.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.

56Lekin iín beggún etollá óiye, zeéne nobi ókkole leikké de pak-kalam or hotá híin fura óizagoi.” Hétunot cárit beggúne Íba re eri dái giiyégoi.But this has all happened so that the writings of the prophets would be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples deserted Him and fled.

57Zetará Isá re gereftar goijjé ítara Íba re boro imam Káiyafas or hañse loigiyói, zeṛé alem ókkol edde murubbi ókkol zoma óiye.Those who had arrested Jesus led Him away to the house of Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and elders had gathered.

58Fitor duré-duré tái Íbar fisé-fisé boro imam or uṛán or héddur foijjonto giiyé, aar kii-kii ó sai bolla bútore góli faáradar ókkol or fúañti boói táikke.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.

59Ḍoóñr imam ókkole edde fótuayi-mujilíc ṭíya ye Isár ulḍa misá gobá tuwat accíl, zeéne ítara Íba re zane marifélai fare.Now the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking false testimony against Jesus in order to put Him to death.

60Boóut zone misá gobá díto muúmmikka ailé yo, toóu háṛe de héndilla honó gobá nó faa. Lekin fore dui zon manúc muúmmikka aiccé,But they did not find any, though many false witnesses came forward. Finally two came forward

61aar hoór de, “E manúc cwa ye hoiyé de, ‘Añí Allar baitul-mukaddos báñgifelai, híyan tin din or bútore abar banaidi faijjum.’”and declared, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days.’”

62Hétunot boro imame tíyai Isá re hoór de, “Tuñí honó zuwab no diba? Manúc itará Tuáñr ulḍa iín kii gobá dér?”So the high priest stood up and asked Him, “Have You no answer? What are these men testifying against You?”

63Montor Isá nizám mári táikkil. Boro imame Íba re hoór de, “Tuñí añára re zinda Allar hosóm hái hoó sái, Tuñí Allar Fua Mosih de ói ne?”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.”

64Isá ye yóggwa re hoór de, “Tuñí nize toh híyan hoóifelaiyo. Toóu Añí tuáñra re hoóir, yarbaade tuáñra dekíba, Manúc or Fua Alla Tálar den ḍák ottu boiṛá asé edde asman or miyúlar uore góri aiyér.”“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.”

65Hétunot boro imame nizor gair or hoor fáṛi hoór de, “Ibá ye kuféri goijjé! Añára ttu ar kii gobá lager dé? Tuáñra toh ehón Ibár kuféri fúinno;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.

66tuáñrar rai kii?” Ítara zuwabe hoór de, “Ibá moot or laayek!”What do you think?” “He deserves to die,” they answered.

67Baade ítara Íbar muk ot sép maijjé edde Íba re gúca maijjé; ar hodúne Íba re suwar mariThen they spit in His face and struck Him. Others slapped Him

68hoór de, “Héy Mosih, añára re antas gorí hoósai, Toré hone maijjé?”and said, “Prophesy to us, Christ! Who hit You?”

69Héñtte Fitor baáre uṛán ot boiṛá accíl, aar eggwá bañdi mayafua aái íba re hoór de, “Tuñí yó toh Galil or Isár fúañti accíla!”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.

70Montor íba ye ítara beggún or muúntu endilla hoói inkar gorídiye, “Tuñí kiyór baabute hoór añí no zani.”But he denied it before them all: “I do not know what you are talking about.”

71Zeñtté íba baáre baanḍat giiyé, ar eggwá bañdi mayafua ye íba re dekí, héṛe asé de ítara re hoór de, “E manúc cwa Isá Nasárir fúañti accíl.”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.”

72Montor íba ye hosóm hái endilla hoói abar inkar gorídiye, “Añí manúc Íba re no siní.”And again he denied it with an oath: “I do not know the man!”

73Hotún baade ḍake tíyai asé de manúc cúne aái Fitor ore hoór de, “Sóiyi tuñí yó tarár bútottu ekzon; kiyólla-hoilé tuáñr zobane úddwa tuáñre dóra dér.”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.”

74Hétunot Fitore hosóm hái hoór de, “Añr uore laánot óuk zodi añí misá hotá hoóir de óile; añí manúc Íba re no siní!” Baade éhon-éhon ratakurá bak diyé.At that he began to curse and swear to them, “I do not know the man!” And immediately a rooster crowed.

75Hétunot Fitor ottu Isá ye hoóil de hotá monot uiṭṭé, ki hoilé, “Ratakurá bak dibar age tui Añré tin bar inkar goríbi.” Baade íba baáre neeligói kúb hañdat doijje.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.
