Matthew 26 (YOR)

1Nígbà tí Jesu ti parí ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀, ó wí fún wọn pé,When Jesus had finished saying all these things, He told His disciples,

6Nígbà tí Jesu wà ní Betani ní ilé ọkùnrin tí à ń pè ní Simoni adẹ́tẹ̀.While Jesus was in Bethany in the home of Simon the Leper,

16Láti ìgbà náà lọ ni Judasi ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí i wá ọ̀nà láti fà á lé wọn lọ́wọ́.So from then on Judas looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus.

17Ní ọjọ́ kìn-ín-ní àjọ àìwúkàrà, àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn tọ Jesu wá pé, “Níbo ni ìwọ fẹ́ kí a pèsè sílẹ̀ láti jẹ àsè ìrékọjá?”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?”

18Jesu sì dáhùn pé, “Ẹ wọ ìlú lọ, ẹ̀yin yóò rí ọkùnrin kan, ẹ wí fún un pé, ‘Olùkọ́ wa wí pé, àkókò mi ti dé.

23Jesu dáhùn pé, “Ẹni ti ó bá mi tọwọ́ bọ inú àwo, ni yóò fi mi hàn.Jesus answered, “The one who has dipped his hand into the bowl with Me will betray Me.

24Ọmọ Ènìyàn ń lọ bí a ti kọ̀wé nípa rẹ̀: ṣùgbọ́n ègbé ni fún ọkùnrin náà lọ́wọ́ ẹni tí a ó ti fi Ọmọ Ènìyàn hàn!

25Judasi, ẹni tí ó fi í hàn pẹ̀lú béèrè pé, “Rabbi, èmi ni bí?” Jesu sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Ìwọ wí i.”Then Judas, who would betray Him, said, “Surely not I, Rabbi?” Jesus answered, “You have said it yourself.”

26Bí wọ́n ti ń jẹun, Jesu sì mú ìwọ̀n àkàrà kékeré kan, lẹ́yìn tí ó ti gbàdúrà sí i, ó bù ú, Ó fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀, Ó wí pé, “Gbà, jẹ; nítorí èyí ni ara mi.”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.”

27Bákan náà, ó sì mú ago wáìnì, ó dúpẹ́ fún un, ó sì gbé e fún wọn. Ó wí pé, “Kí gbogbo yín mu nínú rẹ̀.Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you.

30Wọ́n sì kọ orin kan, lẹ́yìn náà wọ́n lọ sórí òkè Olifi.And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

31Nígbà náà ni Jesu wí fún wọn pé, “Gbogbo yín ni yóò kọsẹ̀ lára mi ní òru òní. Nítorí a ti kọ ọ́ pé: “ ‘Èmi yóò kọlu olùṣọ́-àgùntàn a ó sì tú agbo àgùntàn náà ká kiri.’Then Jesus said to them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of Me.

33Peteru sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Bí gbogbo ènìyàn tilẹ̀ kọ̀ ọ́ sílẹ̀, èmi kì yóò ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀.”Peter said to Him, “Even if all fall away on account of You, I never will.”

34Jesu wí fún un pé, “Lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún ọ pé, ní òru yìí, kí àkùkọ kí ó tó kọ, ìwọ yóò sẹ́ mi nígbà mẹ́ta.”“Truly I tell you,” Jesus declared, “this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.”

35Peteru wí fún un pé, “Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ láti kú pẹ̀lú, èmi kò jẹ́ sẹ́ ọ.” Gẹ́gẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni gbogbo àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn wí.Peter replied, “Even if I have to die with You, I will never deny You.” And all the other disciples said the same thing.

37Ó sì mú Peteru àti àwọn ọmọ Sebede méjèèjì Jakọbu àti Johanu pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, ìrora àti ìbànújẹ́ bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí gba ọkàn rẹ̀.He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee and began to be sorrowful and deeply distressed.

38Nígbà náà ni ó wí fún wọn pé, “Ọkàn mi gbọgbẹ́ pẹ̀lú ìbànújẹ́ títí dé ojú ikú, ẹ dúró níhìn-ín yìí, kí ẹ máa ṣọ́nà pẹ̀lú mi.”Then He said to them, “My soul is consumed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with Me.”

Yet not as I will, but as You will.”

40Bí ó ti padà sọ́dọ̀ àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta, ó bá wọn, wọ́n ń sùn. Ó kígbe pé, “Peteru, ẹ̀yin kò tilẹ̀ lè bá mi ṣọ́nà fún wákàtí kan?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.

41Ẹ máa ṣọ́ra, kí ẹ sì máa gbàdúrà kí ẹ̀yin má ba à bọ́ sínú ìdẹwò. Nítorí ẹ̀mí ń fẹ́ nítòótọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ó ṣe àìlera fún ara.”“Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”

43Nígbà tí ó tún padà dé sọ́dọ̀ wọn, Ó rí i pé wọn ń sùn, nítorí ojú wọn kún fún oorun.And again Jesus returned and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.

44Nítorí náà, ó fi wọn sílẹ̀ ó tún padà lọ láti gbàdúrà nígbà kẹta, ó ń wí ohun kan náà.So He left them and went away once more and prayed a third time, saying the same thing.

45Nígbà náà ni ó tọ́ àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ wá, ó wí pé, “Àbí ẹ̀yin sì ń sùn síbẹ̀, ti ẹ sì ń sinmi?

Look, the hour is near, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

46Ẹ dìde! Ẹ jẹ́ kí a máa lọ! Ẹ wò ó, ẹni tí yóò fi mi hàn ń bọ̀ wá!”Rise, let us go! See, My betrayer is approaching!”

48Ẹni tí ó sì fi í hàn ti fi àmì fún wọn, pé, “Ẹnikẹ́ni tí mo bá fi ẹnu kò ní ẹnu, òun náà ni; ẹ mú un.”Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The One I kiss is the man; arrest Him.”

49Nísinsin yìí, Judasi wá tààrà sọ́dọ̀ Jesu, ó wí pé, “Àlàáfíà, Rabbi!” Ó fi ẹnu kò ó ní ẹnu.Going directly to Jesus, he said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” and kissed Him.

50Jesu wí pé, “Ọ̀rẹ́, kí ni nǹkan tí ìwọ bá wá.” Àwọn ìyókù sì sún síwájú wọ́n sì mú Jesu.“Friend,” Jesus replied, “do what you came for.” Then the men stepped forward, seized Jesus, and arrested Him.

52Jesu wí fún un pé, “Fi idà rẹ bọ àkọ̀ nítorí àwọn tí ó ń fi idà pa ni a ó fi idà pa.“Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him. “For all who draw the sword will die by the sword.

54Ṣùgbọ́n bí mo bá ṣe eléyìí ọ̀nà wo ni a ó fi mú Ìwé Mímọ́ ṣẹ, èyí tí ó ti sọ ohun tí ó ṣẹlẹ̀ nísinsin yìí?”But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that say it must happen this way?”

Every day I sat teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest Me.

57Àwọn tí ó mú Jesu fà á lọ sí ilé Kaiafa, olórí àlùfáà, níbi ti àwọn olùkọ́ òfin àti gbogbo àwọn àgbàgbà Júù péjọ sí.Those who had arrested Jesus led Him away to the house of Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and elders had gathered.

59Nígbà náà ni àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti gbogbo ìgbìmọ̀ Júù ní ilé ẹjọ́ tí ó ga jùlọ ti Júù péjọ síbẹ̀, wọ́n wá àwọn ẹlẹ́rìí tí yóò purọ́ mọ́ Jesu, kí a ba à lè rí ẹjọ́ rò mọ́ ọn lẹ́sẹ̀, eléyìí tí yóò yọrí si ìdájọ́ ikú fún un.Now the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking false testimony against Jesus in order to put Him to death.

60Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé àwọn ẹlẹ́rìí èké dìde, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò rí ohun kan. Níkẹyìn, àwọn ẹlẹ́rìí méjì dìde.But they did not find any, though many false witnesses came forward. Finally two came forward

62Nígbà náà ni olórí àlùfáà sì dìde, ó wí fún Jesu pé, “Ẹ̀rí yìí ń kọ́? Ìwọ sọ bẹ́ẹ̀ tàbí ìwọ kò sọ bẹ́ẹ̀?”So the high priest stood up and asked Him, “Have You no answer? What are these men testifying against You?”

63Ṣùgbọ́n Jesu dákẹ́ rọ́rọ́. Nígbà náà ni olórí àlùfáà wí fún un pé, “Mo fi ọ́ bú ní orúkọ Ọlọ́run alààyè, kí ó sọ fún wa, bí ìwọ bá í ṣe Kristi Ọmọ Ọlọ́run.”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.”

64Jesu sì dáhùn pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, ìwọ wí.” Ṣùgbọ́n mo wí fún gbogbo yín. “Ẹ̀yin yóò rí Ọmọ Ènìyàn ti yóò jókòó lọ́wọ́ ọ̀tún alágbára, tí yóò sì máa bọ̀ wá láti inú ìkùùkuu.”“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.”

65Nígbà náà ni olórí àlùfáà fa aṣọ òun tìkára rẹ̀ ya. Ó sì kígbe pé, “Ọ̀rọ̀-òdì! Kí ni a tún ń wá ẹlẹ́rìí fún? Gbogbo yín ti gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀-òdì rẹ̀.

66Ki ni ẹ ti rò èyí sí. Gbogbo wọn sì kígbe lọ́hùn kan pé, “Ó jẹ̀bi ikú!”What do you think?” “He deserves to die,” they answered.

67Wọ́n tu itọ́ sí i ní ojú. Wọ́n kàn án lẹ́ṣẹ̀ẹ́. Àwọn ẹlòmíràn sì gbá a lójú.Then they spit in His face and struck Him. Others slapped Him

70Ṣùgbọ́n Peteru sẹ̀ ní ojú gbogbo wọn pé, “Èmi kò tilẹ̀ mọ ohun tí ẹ ń sọ nípa rẹ̀.”But he denied it before them all: “I do not know what you are talking about.”

72Peteru sì tún sẹ́ lẹ́ẹ̀kejì pẹ̀lú ìbúra pé, “Èmi kò tilẹ̀ mọ ọkùnrin náà rárá.”And again he denied it with an oath: “I do not know the man!”

74Peteru sì tún bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í búra ó sì fi ara rẹ̀ ré wí pé, “Mo ní èmi kò mọ ọkùnrin yìí rárá.” Lójúkan náà àkùkọ sì kọ.At that he began to curse and swear to them, “I do not know the man!” And immediately a rooster crowed.
