Mark 14 (SHR) · Opened

1Hali hacisigîre nsiku ibiri embere z’olwa-Basâka n’olw’emigati erhali mwo lwango. Abajinji n’abashamuka b’ihano bakâg’ilonza oku bankamugwârha n’obwenge n’oku bankamuyîrha.Now the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread were two days away, and the chief priests and scribes were looking for a covert way to arrest Jesus and kill Him.

2Ci bakaderha mpu: «Arhali oku lusiku lukulu, akadugundu kalek’izûka omu lubaga».“But not during the feast,” they said, “or there may be a riot among the people.”

3Erhi Yezu abà ali e Betaniya omu mwa Simoni mushomyo, abwârhîre adwîrhe alya, hâyisha mukazi muguma, wali odwîrhe enjebe y’amavurha nkana g’omugavu g’engulo ndârhi. Anacibera erya njebe, amudubulira gulya mugavu oku irhwe.While Jesus was in Bethany reclining at the table in the home of Simon the Leper, a woman came with an alabaster jar of expensive perfume, made of pure nard. She broke open the jar and poured it on Jesus’ head.

4Baguma omu bàhali bagwârhwa n’omutula, banaderha, mpu: «Cirhumire asherêza ogu mugavu?Some of those present, however, expressed their indignation to one another: “Why this waste of perfume?

5Ogu mugavu gwankaguzirwe dinari magana asharhu, zihâbwe abakenyi». Balubira oyo mukazi.It could have been sold for over three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor.” And they scolded her.

6Yezu ababwîra, erhi: «Mumuleke; carhuma mwamulibuza ntya? Cijiro cinjà anjirîre.But Jesus said, “Leave her alone; why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful deed to Me.

7Bulya abakenyi, ensiku zoshi muli haguma nabo, n’amango mwalonza mwanabajirira aminjà; ci niehe arhali ensiku zoshi mwambona.The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them whenever you want. But you will not always have Me.

8Ajizire nka oku anali ahashire. Ene ashîga omubiri gwâni, abîre agurheganya okubishwa.She has done what she could to anoint My body in advance of My burial.

9Okuli, mmubwîre, ngasi aha Emyanzi y’Akalembe yayigîrizîbwe omu igulu lyoshi, eci cijiro c’oyu mukazi caganîrwe oku kumukengêra».And truly I tell you, wherever the gospel is preached in all the world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.”

10Yûda w’e Keriyoti, muguma muli balya ikumi na babiri, anacijà emwa abajinji b’abadâhwa mpu amuhâne omu maboko gâbo.Then Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Jesus to them.

11Nabo erhi bayumva ntyo, bacîshinga bwenêne, banamulaganya ensaranga. Obwo akâlonza kurhi abona aha amuhânira.They were delighted to hear this, and they promised to give him money. So Judas began to look for an opportunity to betray Jesus.

12Omu lusiku lurhanzi lw’emigati erhalimwo lwango, lwo lusiku babâgira Basâka, abaganda bâge bamubwîra, mpu: «Ngahi olonzize rhukurheganyize okulya Basâka?»On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover lamb was to be sacrificed, Jesus’ disciples asked Him, “Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?”

13Anacirhuma babiri omu baganda bâge, ababwîra, erhi: «Mujè omu cishagala; mwâshimâna omuntu abarhwîre akabindi k’amîshi, mumukulikire;So He sent two of His disciples and told them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jug of water will meet you. Follow him,

14“ngasi ahankaja, mubwîre nn’enyumpa, mpu”: “Omwigîriza adesire ntya”: “Ngahi enyumpa yâni eri, ndîremwo Basâka haguma n’abaganda bâni?”and whichever house he enters, say to the owner, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is My guest room, where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?’

15“Amuyêreka enyumpa nnene y’enyanya, ebambirwe bwinjà enali nteganye; mwo mwarhurheganyiza”».And he will show you a large upper room, furnished and ready. Make preparations for us there.”

16Balya baganda balîkûla, bajà omu lugo, bashimana kulya anababwîraga, barheganya Basâka.So the disciples left and went into the city, where they found everything as Jesus had described. And they prepared the Passover.

17Erhi bibà bijingo, ayisha bo na balya ikumi na babiri.When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve.

18Erhi bacibà bali oku cîbo, badwîrhe balya, Yezu ababwîra, erhi: «Okuli, mmubwîre, muguma muli mwe, rhudwîrhe rhwalira haguma, ampâna».And while they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, one of you who is eating with Me will betray Me.”

19Omutula gwanacibagwârha, bakamudôsa muguma muguma, erhi: «Waliha, ka nie?»They began to be grieved and to ask Him one after another, “Surely not I?”

20Naye anacishuza, erhi: «Ali muguma omu ikumi-na-babiri, ohebire okuboko omu nambi nguma rhwe naye.He answered, “It is one of the Twelve—the one who is dipping his hand into the bowl with Me.

21Nêci, Mwene-omuntu acîkolera nka oku ayandikîrwe, ci kwônene buhanya bw’oyu muntu Mwene-omuntu ahânwa naye! Kwàkabîre kukulu kuli oyo muntu arhaburhwe!»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.”

22Erhi babà badwîrhe balya, ayanka omugati, n’erhi abà amagugisha, anacigubega, abahà, anaderha, erhi: «Yanki, eci guli mubiri gwâni».While they were eating, Jesus took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, saying, “Take it; this is My body.”

23Ashub’iyanka akahè, avuga omunkwa, abahà, banywakwo boshi.Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it.

24Ababwîra, erhi: «Eci guli mukò gwâni gw’amalaganyo mahyâhya, gubulazîrwe banji barhumire.He said to them, “This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many.

25Okuli, mmubwîre, ntakacishub’inywa kuli eyi mburho y’omuzâbîbu, kuhika olusiku nâyinywe mpyâhya omu Bwâmi bwa Nyamuzinda».Truly I tell you, I will no longer drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it anew in the kingdom of God.”

26Erhi bayûs’iyimba, bahuluka, bajà oku ntondo y’Emizêti.And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

27Yezu anacibabwîra, erhi: «Obudufu bw’ene mweshi mwâsârhala erhi nie ntuma; bulya kuyandisirwe: Nâshûrha lungere, ebibuzi bishandabane.Then Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away, for it is written: ‘I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’

28Ci hano nyûs’ifûka, nammushokolera e Galileya».But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”

29Petro amubwîra, erhi: «Ciru boshi bankasârhala erhi we rhuma, niehe nanga!»Peter declared, “Even if all fall away, I never will.”

30Yezu amushuza, erhi: «Okuli, nkubwîre: ene, muli obu budufu, oluhazi lurhac’ibîka kabiri, wampakana kasharhu».“Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “this very night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.”

31Ci yêhe anacigâgala, aderha, erhi: «Ciru kwankabà kufà haguma nâwe, ntakakuhakana!» N’abandi bakuderha boshi.But Peter kept insisting, “Even if I have to die with You, I will never deny You.” And all the others said the same thing.

32Banacihika omu ishwa liderhwa Jetesemani. Abwîra abaganda bâge, erhi: «Mubwârhale aha oku naj’ishenga».Then they came to a place called Gethsemane, and Jesus told His disciples, “Sit here while I pray.”

33Anaciyanka Petro bona Yakôbo na Yowane, arhondêra okuyumva oburhè n’amaganya.He took with Him Peter, James, and John, and began to be deeply troubled and distressed.

34Ababwîra, erhi: «Omurhima gwâni guyunjwîre burhè bw’okulonz’ifà; mubêre aha, mubè masù».Then He said to them, “My soul is consumed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch.”

35Erhi ashegûka hitya, acîrhimba oku idaho, ahûna mpu kukahashikana, ako kasanzi kamugere kulî.Going a little farther, He fell to the ground and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour would pass from Him.

36Aderha, erhi: «Abà, Larha, byoshi bihashikana emwâwe: onkûlekwo aka kahè; ci arhali nka oku nalonza, ci nka oku walonza wênene!»“Abba, Father,” He said, “all things are possible for You. Take this cup from Me. Yet not what I will, but what You will.”

37Anacishubira aha baganda bâge, ashimâna bahunzire; abwîra Petro, erhi: «Simoni, k’oli îrò? Ka ciru orhahashire okuyîza nsâ nguma yône?Then Jesus returned and found them sleeping. “Simon, are you asleep?” He asked. “Were you not able to keep watch for one hour?

38Mubè masù, munashenge, mulek’ishumikwa; bulya omurhima gubà mwangu, ci omubiri gubà muzamba».Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”

39Ashub’igenda, ashenga, aderha nka kulya aderhaga burhanzi.Again He went away and prayed, saying the same thing.

40Erhi agaluka, ashimâna kandi bali îrò, bulya amasù gâbo gàli mazirho; bahaba kurhi bamushuza.And again Jesus returned and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy. And they did not know what to answer Him.

41Ashub’iyisha obwa kasharhu, ababwîra, erhi: «Lêro mugwishirage munarhamûke. Hoshi aho; amango gahisire: Mwene-omuntu akol’ihânwa omu maboko g’ab’ebyâha.When Jesus returned the third time, He said, “Are you still sleeping and resting? That is enough! The hour has come. Look, the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

42Zûki, rhugende! Owampâna oyu oyiruka».Rise, let us go. See, My betrayer is approaching!”

43Oku acidwîrhe aderha. Yûda w’e Keriyoti, muguma muli balya ikumi na babiri, y’ono y’ono, adwîrhe ngabo nyinji efumbasire engôrho n’amahiri, erhumirwe n’abajinji b’abadâhwa n’abashamuka b’ihano n’abagula b’olubaga.While Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived, accompanied by a crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests, scribes, and elders.

44Owamulenganyagya erhi abahire ecimanyîso, erhi: «Oyu nakanunugurha, erhi ye, mumugwârhe, mumuhêke buholo-buholo».Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The One I kiss is the man; arrest Him and lead Him away securely.”

45Oku anayisha ntya, ayirukira amuyegera, amubwîra, erhi: «Mpanyire omusingo, Muyigîriza!» Anacimununugurha.Going directly to Jesus, he said, “Rabbi!” and kissed Him.

46Banacimuhirakwo amaboko, bamugwârha.Then the men seized Jesus and arrested Him.

47Obwo muguma muli balya bahàli ayômola engôrho yâge, ayirhimba mwambali w’Omudâhwa mukulu, amushishimbula okurhwiri.And one of the bystanders drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear.

48Yezu anacibabwîra, erhi: «Ewe, kurhi muyishire nka bantu bashimbire ecishungu, muherhe engôrho n’amahiri, mul’ingwârha?Jesus asked the crowd, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me as you would an outlaw?

49Ngasi lusiku nali ninyu nayigîriza omu ka-Nyamuzinda, murhanangwârhaga. Ci okwo kwoshi mpu lyo Amandiko gayunjula».Every day I was with you, teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest Me. But this has happened that the Scriptures would be fulfilled.”

50Obwo abaganda bâge banacimuleka, bayâka boshi.Then everyone deserted Him and fled.

51Mwâna muguma wa musole amukulikira, erhi ntâco ayambîrhe ecirhali cirondo câge conene; bamugwârha.One young man who had been following Jesus was wearing a linen cloth around his body. They caught hold of him,

52Ci yêhe abalekera cirya cirondo, acîlibirhira bushugunu.but he pulled free of the linen cloth and ran away naked.

53Banacihêka Yezu emwa Omudâhwa mukulu; nabo abajinji b’abadâhwa, abagula b’olubaga n’abashamuka b’ihano bayishûbûkira boshi.They led Jesus away to the high priest, and all the chief priests, elders, and scribes assembled.

54Naye Petro erhi amugumire omu cirali kuhika omu côgo c’Omudâhwa mukulu; abwârhala oku cîko haguma n’abalalizi, akàkalûka.Peter followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. And he sat with the officers and warmed himself by the fire.

55Abajinji b’abadâhwa n’ihano lyoshi bakâlonza obuhamîrizi kuli Yezu, mpu lyo bamuyîrha, ci babubula.Now the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, but they did not find any.

56N’obwo abahamîrizi b’obunywesi bâli bayishire banji, ci amahamîrizi gâbo garhàyumvanyagya.For many bore false witness against Jesus, but their testimony was inconsistent.

57Hanaciyimanga baguma, bamunywêrhera, mpu:Then some men stood up and testified falsely against Him:

58«Rhwamuyumvîrhe aderha, mpu: “Nâshâba aka ka-Nyamuzinda kayûbakagwa n’amaboko g’abantu, n’omu nsiku isharhu nyunjuze akandi karhayûbasirwi na maboko ga bantu”».“We heard Him say, ‘I will destroy this man-made temple, and in three days I will build another that is made without hands.’”

59Ciru na muli okwo obuhamîrizi bwâbo burhayumvanyagya.But even their testimony was inconsistent.

60Okubundi Omudâhwa mukulu anaciyimanga ekarhî, adôsa Yezu, erhi: «Ci orhashuza? Kurhi okwo abà bantu badwîrhe bakuderhera?»So the high priest stood up before them and questioned Jesus, “Have You no answer? What are these men testifying against You?”

61Yêhe acîhulikira, arhashagalaga kanwa. Omudâhwa mukulu ashub’imudôsa anamubwîra, erhi: «Ka we Kristu, Mugala w’Omugishe?»But Jesus remained silent and made no reply. Again the high priest questioned Him, “Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?”

62Yezu anacimushuza, erhi: «Nêci, ndi ye; mwânacibone Mwene-omuntu abwârhîre ekulyo kw’Ogala-byoshi anayishire omu bitù by’emalunga».“I am,” said Jesus, “and you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power and coming with the clouds of heaven.”

63Aho Omudâhwa mukulu asharhula e myambalo yâge, anaderha, erhi: «Bici rhwacilongeza abahamîrizi?At this, the high priest tore his clothes and declared, “Why do we need any more witnesses?

64Mwayumvîrhe oku alogorha; kurhi mubwîne?» Boshi bamutwîra oku akwânîne okufà.You have heard the blasphemy. What is your verdict?” And they all condemned Him as deserving of death.

65Okubundi baguma banarhondêra okumumesherakwo, n’erhi babà bamamubwîka obusù, bakàmurhimba ebifundo banaderha, mpu: «Lêbaga!» N’abalalîzi bakamushûrha empî.Then some of them began to spit on Him. They blindfolded Him, struck Him with their fists, and said to Him, “Prophesy!” And the officers received Him with slaps in His face.

66Erhi Petro abà akola ali omu côgo idako, hâyisha mujà-nyere muguma w’Omudâhwa mukulu.While Peter was in the courtyard below, one of the servant girls of the high priest came down

67Erhi abona Petro adwîrhe akalûka, amusinza anamubwîra, erhi: «Nâwe wali haguma na Yezu w’e Nazareti».and saw him warming himself there. She looked at Peter and said, “You also were with Jesus the Nazarene.”

68Naye anacihakana, aderha, erhi: «Ntishi, ciru ntumvîrhi ebi odesire». Anacihuluka, ajà ebwa lumvi; oluhazi lwabika.But he denied it. “I do not know or even understand what you are talking about,” he said. Then he went out to the gateway, and the rooster crowed.

69Erhi olya mujà-nyere amubona, ashub’irhondêra abwîra abahali, erhi: «Oyo ali wa muli bo!»There the servant girl saw him and again said to those standing nearby, “This man is one of them.”

70Ci yêhe ashub’ilahira. Erhi kugera kasanzi, abàli halya babwîra Petro, mpu: «Mâshi oli wa muli bo, bulya oli Mugalileya».But he denied it again. After a little while, those standing nearby said once more to Peter, “Surely you are one of them, for you too are a Galilean.”

71Okuhandi arhondêra alahira analahiriza, erhi: «Mâshi oyo muntu mwaderha, ntamuyishi»,But he began to curse and swear, “I do not know this man of whom you speak!”

72Obwo oluhazi lwabika obwa kabiri. Aho Petro akengêra kalya kanwa Yezu amubwîraga: «Embere oluhazi lubike kabiri, wa mpakana kasharhu». Anacirhondêra okuvugumula emirenge.And immediately the rooster crowed a second time. Then Peter remembered the word that Jesus had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.” And he broke down and wept.
