1Kunla man hhantu Ersai Biladoi melie echighawo.Then the whole council rose and led Jesus away to Pilate.

2Hhela Ersai zhazhi qiiwo, "Ene kun bexinlani shanjizhi Lomani honshan Kaisade shui bu jiui giezho. Pse goyane Mexihai wo, honshan wo giezho."And they began to accuse Him, saying, “We found this man subverting our nation, forbidding payment of taxes to Caesar, and proclaiming Himself to be Christ, a King.”

3Bilado Ersade asawo, "Chishi Yutai kunni honshan onu?" Ersa kieliewo, "Chi kieliezho."So Pilate asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied.

4Bilado fugie buwa, kunlade kieliewo, "Bi ene kunse yama zui chaizhi khizhe dawo."Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”

5Ingieliuzhe hhela pse zhazhi hendawo, "Ene kun bexinlade sughazhi shanjizhi Yudayani gochude echizho. Jialilise enende irewo."But they kept insisting, “He stirs up the people all over Judea with His teaching. He began in Galilee and has come all the way here.”

6Bilado chenliedene asawo, "Eneshi Jialili kun onu?"When Pilate heard this, he asked if the man was a Galilean.

7Jialilini Hherode gonjisei Bilado mejiedene Ersai Hherodei hhende khughoghawo. Hhe shihoude Hherode zhen Yelusalende wo.And learning that Jesus was under Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who himself was in Jerusalem at that time.

8Hherode Ersai chanladene hende bayasuzho. Hhe giesan shiqinni chighindei irese melieshise nie ochirane giezho. Ghudureqi xienjighase uzhene giezho.When Herod saw Jesus, he was greatly pleased. He had wanted to see Him for a long time, because he had heard about Him and was hoping to see Him perform a miracle.

9Ingie Hherode Ersade olon asawoma Ersa yama ese kieliewo.Herod questioned Jesus at great length, but He gave no answer.

10Fugie buwa, jinwun hanjiala beidene hende zhazho.Meanwhile, the chief priests and scribes stood there, vehemently accusing Him.

11Hherode buduighalane Ersai uzhezhi xiniezhi xilun giedene seighan fudu jienyi musigha, Biladoi hhende echighawo.And even Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked Him. Dressing Him in a fine robe, they sent Him back to Pilate.

12Melieshida Hherode Biladoghala duitou wo. Hhe niudude zhanlien gholuwo.That day Herod and Pilate became friends; before this time they had been enemies.

13Bilado fugie buwa, lindao, bexinlani uruzhi hhantulaghadeneThen Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,

14hhelade kieliewo, "Ta ene kunyi mii enende ireghase ene kun bexinlai shanjizho giezho. Uzhe, bi tai melie ene kunyi xianxide shenwun giewoma, ene kunde ta zhasan qimutu zui uwo.and said to them, “You brought me this man as one who was inciting the people to rebellion. I have examined Him here in your presence and found Him not guilty of your charges against Him.

15Hherodeye yama zuini ereizhi olu dadene enende kharei ireghawo. Ene kunde fugughaku zui uwo.Neither has Herod, for he sent Him back to us. As you can see, He has done nothing deserving of death.

16Enei ingieye, nie faidene andaghaye."Therefore I will punish Him and release Him.”

18Kunla man waradazhi kieliewo, "Ene kunni ala! Balabai andagha!"But they all cried out in unison: “Away with this man! Release Barabbas to us!”

19Balabashi hhe chenshide panlon giezhi kun aladene bafanzide khasan wo.(Barabbas had been imprisoned for an insurrection in the city, and for murder.)

20Bilado Ersai andaghaku duran wine, hhelade qingiezhi kieliezho.Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate addressed them again,

21Ingiese kunla, "Ersai shizijia jiere ghada! Shizijia jiere ghada!" giezhi waradazhi ulie olune.but they kept shouting, “Crucify Him! Crucify Him!”

22Bilado 3 hui hhelade kieliewo, "Yangiezhi? Ene kun yan doghun shiqin giezho? Bi ene kunde yama fuguku zui jinji dane. Nie faidene andaghaye."A third time he said to them, “What evil has this man done? I have found in Him no offense worthy of death. So after I punish Him, I will release Him.”

23Kunla fugiede waradazhi izhigie kieliezho, "Shizijia jiere ghada!" Hhelai shenqi injiwo.But they were insistent, demanding with loud voices for Jesus to be crucified. And their clamor prevailed.

24Ingie Bilado hhela kieliesan mutun panjiwo.So Pilate sentenced that their demand be met.

25Kunla keresan mutun panlon giezhi lon kun alasan hhe kunyi bafanzise khizheghawo. Ingiedene Ersai hhelai durande teiwo.As they had requested, he released the one imprisoned for insurrection and murder, and he handed Jesus over to their will.

26Ersai lai echikude nie xianse iresan Gulinai kun Ximun wo. Shizijiani hhende beilieghadene Ersai daghaghazho.As the soldiers led Him away, they seized Simon of Cyrene on his way in from the country, and they put the cross on him to carry behind Jesus.

27Olon kun Ersai daghazho. Hhelai dunda niezhan biereila Ersade zhughe otuzhi wilazho.A great number of people followed Him, including women who kept mourning and wailing for Him.

28Ersa ochiradene hhelade kieliewo, "Yelusalenni funila, ta made oluzhi bu wila, goyadene, kesiladene oluzhi wila.But Jesus turned to them and said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

29Hhe shihou ijin irene, irese kunla kieliene, 'Kewosi uye olusan, uye laisan, uye gogoghasan biereilade fuqi wine!'Look, the days are coming when people will say, ‘Blessed are the barren women, the wombs that never bore, and breasts that never nursed!’

30Hhe shihoude kunla fugie ulade kieliezhi bijienni jiere una! Ga ulade kieliezhi bijienni kha giene.At that time ‘they will say to the mountains, “Fall on us!” and to the hills, “Cover us!”’

31Hhela noghon mutunde ingiezhi giese ghosan mutunde matugie giene?"For if men do these things while the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”

32Da ghua fanrenlai Ersare hhantu alane giezho.Two others, who were criminals, were also led away to be executed with Jesus.

33Hhela qiorun yasun oron giesan oronde kudene Ersai shizijia jiere ghadawo. Ghua fanrenniye Ersai lianmiende ghadawo.When they came to the place called The Skull, they crucified Him there, along with the criminals, one on His right and the other on His left.

34Ersa kieliewo, "Adaya, hhelai mienlie. Hhela yan giesanne ulie mejiene." Buduila fendan qianguzhi Ersai jienni ghughazho.Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” And they divided up His garments by casting lots.

35Bexinla beidene uzhezho. Noyenlaye uzhezhi xiniezhi kieliezho, "Hhe kunlai jiuiwo, goyashi Huda sunghusan Hudai Mexiha enbese goyane jiui gie."The people stood watching, and the rulers sneered at Him, saying, “He saved others; let Him save Himself if He is the Christ of God, the Chosen One.”

39Hhantu ghadasan nie fanren Ersai sugiezhi kieliewo, "Chishi Mexiha pushonu? Goyane jiuidene bijienyiye jiuisha!"One of the criminals who hung there heaped abuse on Him. “Are You not the Christ?” he said. “Save Yourself and us!”

40Da nie fanren hhei sugiezhi kieliewo, "Chii xianxianji fugughaku zui panjidene Hudase da ulie ayinu?But the other one rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same judgment?

41Matan giesan wilie mutunshi ghadase oluzho, ene kun nie huaishi ese giezho."We are punished justly, for we are receiving what our actions deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.”

42Ingie kieliewo, "Ersa, chi goya gojiadene qienli bareikude mini jila."Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when You come into Your kingdom!”

43Ersa kieliewo, "Bi chade shuhua kielieye, enedu matan ghuala qientande hhantulane."And Jesus said to him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”

44Chabudu zhunwuse xiawu 3 jien olutula zemin man kharalazho.It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over all the land until the ninth hour.

47Baifuzhan ene shiqinni chanladene Hudai kuaizhi kieliewo, "Eneshi zhenzhen gou kun enbene!"When the centurion saw what had happened, he gave glory to God, saying, “Surely this was a righteous man.”

48Fashen giesan shiqinni uzhesan kunla man echanne chuidazhi khareiwo.And when all the people who had gathered for this spectacle saw what had happened, they returned home beating their breasts.

49Niezhan Ersai tanisan kunla, Jialilise daghazhi iresan biereila gholode beidene uzhezho.But all those who knew Jesus, including the women who had followed Him from Galilee, stood at a distance watching these things.

50Fugie fayenni nie noyenyi nierei Yusufu giene. Hheshi nie gou kun wo, gundan kun wo.Now there was a Council member named Joseph, a good and righteous man,

53Agi bouzhe boside boui tashide waisan fugie mezade teiwo. Hhe mezade kun nieda teizhi ese daozho.Then he took it down, wrapped it in a linen cloth, and placed it in a tomb cut into the rock, where no one had yet been laid.
