Matthew 27 (XSN)

1Nangka ara asane, na pate andaamoole magame Ashili kaa andaano aromo gwaara angmǝ azaa nangka neya wongha Yeso.When morning came, all the chief priests and elders of the people conspired against Jesus to put Him to death.

2Nane tere kai, aane ale ka kai aa begeshe be Ogomo Bilatus.They bound Him, led Him away, and handed Him over to Pilate the governor.

3Awere aka Yahuda ooka wa nayi kai wa laka aa core Yeso angmǝ wongha, na wa kone oburǝ, nawa kuri ara andaamoole magame ma Ashili kaa andaano, nawa kuriyǝ ne ma azorpa tuuru taaro name.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.

4Awa bekaana, “Ma ya madinǝ ka ma nya ondooka wata tambo ne ka wongha kai.” Nane bekaana, “Eya manyi maro? Onna a owa wai.”“I have sinned by betraying innocent blood,” he said. “What is that to us?” they replied. “You bear the responsibility.”

5Na Yahuda me bacakare o azorpa me a akwilǝ Ashili, na wa suri, na wa ale aa wa ye lesara.So Judas threw the silver into the temple and left. Then he went away and hanged himself.

6Azaa nyimi na andaamoole magame Ashili ne shende emate me aa ne bekaana, “Wata gwara aa eke emate eena e a lebengga le akwilǝ Ashili ne, obena emate me e manyau e.”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.”

7Azaa nyimi na ne nya tukpwei madoola na, ne embe adeze a ondo sowa madaka ka emate me ka a itǝ adeze o taasa a ageng.After conferring together, they used the money to buy the potter’s field as a burial place for foreigners.

8Nyimia wa ote, a deya o ngmeengme a rareze arame na ugiishi manyau.That is why it has been called the Field of Blood to this day.

9Azaa nyimia a panza angmǝ a Ondo o beya angmǝ ka mawo ma Ashili Irimiya ka wa beke na, “Ne jeke emate tuuru taaro, emate eeka aromo a Isrela ne kabare na are azaa kai naname,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,

10nane embe adeze ondo o sooza madaka ka e, nangka Ateokora ka oteng.”and they gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord had commanded me.”

11Na Yeso itǝ a begeshe be ondo togomo, na ondo togomo teme kang pirkǝ kai na, “Boo na, boa Ogomo maYahuda na?” Yeso ka kabare na, “Nangka baa beka.”Meanwhile Jesus stood before the governor, who questioned Him: “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied.

12Nangka ne andaamoole magame ma Ashili kaa andaano ne beye kai majǝkǝri, naka ta beke eyapa ne.And when He was accused by the chief priests and elders, He gave no answer.

13Na Bilatus bekaa akai na, “Ota ba kona e pate epa eena ane beyau majǝkǝri azame ne?”Then Pilate asked Him, “Do You not hear how many charges they are bringing against You?”

14Na Yeso ta ka kabare na be pirǝ be yende ne, na nyimi tere ogomo ukpwei aa bote.But Jesus gave no answer, not even to a single charge, much to the governor’s amazement.

15Koonang awere Ozǝnggǝ Ocakate, ondo togomo wa mena aa peere oromo yende aa nyimia andaaka a pate a akwilǝ andaleme, ooka aromo ne zaka.Now it was the governor’s custom at the feast to release to the crowd a prisoner of their choosing.

16Awere name, ondo zene a akwilǝ andaleme ka a rose wai ka ogirǝ, ka a beya wai na Barabas.At that time they were holding a notorious prisoner named Barabbas.

17Nangka maYahuda ne kurkǝnǝng, na Bilatus pirkǝ nee na, “Mana eya yeme ang pere ying wai? Barabas naa, na Yeso kamea arareze kai na Almasipu?”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?”

18Obena wa rose na le'ero le ote nane turki Yeso awai.For he knew it was out of envy that they had handed Jesus over to him.

19Bangka nyimi kangza, awere aka wa ya cikǝ a ledǝndǝ le cora angmǝ, ondaye wai wa tong na abele wai na, “Karomo kana ta kaa ya eyapa ne. Sǝǝrǝ taara to orooka karomo kaana obena ma zitǝ a tolau kaya kai.”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.”

20Andaamoole magame ma Ashili kaa andaano ne tarze aromo aa ne baale ne na ne zaka Barabas ka ne cǝ kane wong Yeso.But the chief priests and elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus put to death.

21Na ogomo me kang pirkǝ aromo me na, “A nyimi aromo leere aana, mana eya yeme ang pere ying wai?” Na ne bekaana, “Barabas.”“Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” asked the governor. “Barabbas,” they replied.

22Na Bilatus bekaa na, “Na ang wiinia ka Yeso ka rareze kai na Almasipu?” Na pate one kabare na “A gendare kai a uti!”“What then should I do with Jesus who is called Christ?” Pilate asked. They all answered, “Crucify Him!”

23Na Bilatus pirkǝ ne, “Azaa eya? Ombela araaburu ka eza?” Na ne waale o ara angmelo na, “A gendare kai a uti.”“Why?” asked Pilate. “What evil has He done?” But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify Him!”

24Nangka Bilatus wa laka wa era wata ya eyapa ne, kangza a nyong aromo ya waale o caro, na wa mangka manyi na wa kwizǝ taara tewai aa aromo ya gonta, aa wa bekaana, “Mi, ma kwizǝ a taara teng aa manyau ma karomo ka o dera madinǝ kaana. Onna zitǝ oying wai.”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.”

25Na pate aromo me kabare na, “Baya ozitǝ ome itǝ azaa aro kaa ayana aro.”All the people answered, “His blood be on us and on our children!”

26Awere namea wa pere ne Barabas. Malo oka wa ote na ole Yeso, aa wa nayi kai ka gendare.So Pilate released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged, and handed Him over to be crucified.

27Na ana otesa ageza aa moole o ogomo ale ka Yeso a akwilǝ togomo, nane kurki pate legwa le ana otesa ageza a moole o makeke mame azaa kai.Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium and gathered the whole company around Him.

28Na ne lope madibi maaka maya lepung le kai, aa ne amba kai odibi o ganggo o togomo.They stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him.

29Na ne pi betageya be ekana, aa ne amba kai ukpwei, aa ne nya kai lebenda le yende o ara ore o kai, na ne kang tungunu a begeshe be kai aa ne zeele kai, aa ne beyaana kai na, “Ashili waloo ne, Ogomo maYahuda!”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!”

30Aa ne karze kai mawo, nane jeke lebenda lenname nane ola kai kaa le o ukpwei.Then they spit on Him and took the staff and struck Him on the head repeatedly.

31Nangka ne mare o zeela kai, nane lope kai odibi o togomo te me, aa kuriyǝ kai madibi maaka maya kai a lepung, nane ale ka kai ka ne gendare uti.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.

32Ne ya teweno naname, nane gwarnang ka Saminu, oromo a Siyarin. Waya ne ote nawa ana uti o gendare a Yeso.Along the way they found a man from Cyrene, named Simon, and they forced him to carry the cross of Jesus.

33Nangka ne dukǝ ara aka arareze ai na Golgota, araaka a rose ai na ara o cako ukpwei,And when they came to a place called Golgotha, which means The Place of the Skull,

34nane nya kai manyi ma inabi maaka a sakale ka ka o ngmangmang ka ka se. Nangka ka lembe ka leleng, naka nyana o sa me.they offered Him wine to drink, mixed with gall; but after tasting it, He refused to drink it.

35Malo o gendare a Yeso, nane eze o zawa azaa madibi ma kai kane laka mana yo jeka odibi me.When they had crucified Him, they divided up His garments by casting lots.

36Malo nyimi nane cikǝ arame aa le'enda le kai.And sitting down, they kept watch over Him there.

37A aza uti me, aza kaa ukpwei o kai, nane wele aa kati ka patarake ka yende na, “KANNAA YESO, OGOMO MAYAHUDA.”Above His head they posted the written charge against Him: THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

38Nane kang gendare kai legwa kaa akǝri o tǝǝru aromo a leere, oyende o ara ore, aa o yende o ara uguri kai.Two robbers were crucified with Him, one on His right and the other on His left.

39Ana o kaale ne ne zeele kai, aa ne zuu ukpwei,And those who passed by heaped abuse on Him, shaking their heads

40aa ne beyaana, “Bo ka baa bekaana, ba era o oka akwilǝ Ashili, oo kang sowa ai a nyimi amora taaro, na boza o ukpwei o! Na bo Kena ka Ashili baaza, jipi a uti ogendare me!”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!”

41Nyimia kangza andaamoole magame ma Ashili ka ana o baala angmǝ aaka Ashili a nya Mosa ka andaano aromo ne zeele kai, aa ne beyaana,In the same way, the chief priests, scribes, and elders mocked Him, saying,

42“Ka boza ana ondo, aa ka girǝ o boza ukpwei kai. Kai ya Ogomo Isrela sang? Kaa jipi a uti ogendare na nannameena, awere namea te yo kabare ka kai.“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.

43Ka eke lenyong a Ashili, baya a Ashili me boza kai nanname, aaya yeme a kai, obena ka bekaana kai Kena ka Ashilia kai.”He trusts in God. Let God deliver Him now if He wants Him. For He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”

44Pate a akǝri o tǝǝru a aromo ka a gendare ne ka Yeso ne beya akai angmǝ a aburu.In the same way, even the robbers who were crucified with Him berated Him.

45Na maring meke pate makeke mame aa era o tera ongme aa dukǝ beru be o taaro ulyǝlu.From the sixth hour until the ninth hour darkness came over all the land.

46Nangka ongme wa amara ka otaru, na Yeso ara lengmelo ajǝng, na ka bekaana, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabatani?” Obena, “Ashili ang, Ashili ang, eyaaka ba nyang o malo?”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?”

47Aromo aa ka neya itǝ a ting arame ne kone nyimi na ne bekaana, “Karomo kaana kaya orara Ileya!”When some of those standing there heard this, they said, “He is calling Elijah.”

48Na ondo a nyimi one song nawa jeke lesuni nawa tǝkǝzǝ a manyi ma marara, nawa ote a lebenda, aa wa nayi Yeso na ka se.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.

49Azaa nyimi odangare me bekaana, “Bayana te laka na Ileya yo deya kawa boza kai.”But the others said, “Leave Him alone. Let us see if Elijah comes to save Him.”

50Na Yeso kang ara lengmelo a jǝng, aa ka pere ebeene e kai.When Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, He yielded up His spirit.

51Nyimia oyambati ka waya a akwilǝ Ashili wa daro a tera madǝkǝni ma leere, o era obora aaza a jǝpi dizi. Na adeze a zukǝru, aa acale poso.At that moment the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth quaked, and the rocks were split.

52A pǝǝri macao, andaaka ne gbwizǝ kaa ne ye ka boome be Ashili, ne ere ka ebeene,The tombs broke open, and the bodies of many saints who had fallen asleep were raised.

53aa komana one susi a ocao o wai. Malo o era Yeso, nane lyǝ a nyimi apeng aa sangsang, aromo acake ne laka ne.After Jesus’ resurrection, when they had come out of the tombs, they entered the holy city and appeared to many people.

54Awere aka ondo gong ana otesa geza o Roma, kaa andaaka neya legwa aa enda Yeso ne laka adeze a zukǝrnu kaa pate epa eka ne laka, na pate one kone boome maleo, aa ne bekaana, “Kanna dongdong Kena ka Ashilia kai!”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.”

55Andaye yende acake ka ne tare Yeso aa surǝ aa Galili aane kangkama kai, ne itǝ aa macang a gontaka pate epa eka eya ale.And many women were there, watching from a distance. They had followed Jesus from Galilee to minister to Him.

56Aa nyimi one neye, Mariya ka o Magadala, kaa Mariya iini na Yakubu ka Yusupu, aa iini ayana Zabadi kangza.Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of Zebedee’s sons.

57Nangka o ulyǝlu waye, na Yusupu, oromo o Arimatiya ka waya ka o cǝ, wai kangza ondo o tare Yeso waze.When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea named Joseph, who himself was a disciple of Jesus.

58Nawa ale aa Bilatus nawa bose na nya wai lepung le Yeso. Na Bilatus ote na nya wai.He went to Pilate to ask for the body of Jesus, and Pilate ordered that it be given to him.

59Yusupu wa jeke lepung leme, nawa pate le ka betu,So Joseph took the body, wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,

60aa wa lyǝǝrǝ lepung leme a nyimi ocau osau oka wa she eke ukpwei wai ka wa kau a lecale. Nawa turki lecale legong leyende nawa pate begmǝ be ocau me, aa wa ale.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.

61Mariya ka o Magadala, kaa Mariya kayende, ne ya zaa ocikǝ a izi ocau me.Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were sitting there opposite the tomb.

62Ka o sana ara, malo Lengme le Ogoro, na andaamoole magame ma Ashili kaa maParisa gwarnang a begeshe be Bilatus,The next day, the one after Preparation Day, the chief priests and Pharisees assembled before Pilate.

63nane bekaana, “Ogomo, te rintǝ nangka karomo kaaname ka o rendaza aa ka tata a bengma ka beeze na malo tomore to taaro kayo era ka ebeene.“Sir,” they said, “we remember that while He was alive that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise again.’

64Azaa nyimi, ote ka eza le'enda ocau me maleo aa dukǝ tomore te taaro, tana atoma akai de kane kpwi ekeze kai aa ne bekaa aromo na ka era malo ogbwǝ ne. Orenda o maare wayo kala obora o buru.”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.”

65Na Bilatus bekaa nee na, “Besa na ana otesa geza aa moole, ka e ale kaa e eze le'enda nangka wa gwara.”“You have a guard,” Pilate said. “Go, make the tomb as secure as you know how.”

66Nane ale nane ende ocau ome, aa ne ote bewela becapa be ogomo, aa ne baya ana otesa geza me aa le'enda.So they went and secured the tomb by sealing the stone and posting the guard.
