1 Bhai likundi lyowe, gubhajimingene, nikwaapeleka a Yeshu kwa a Pilato. 2 Gubhatandubhenje kwaashitakiya bhalinkutinji, “Bhene bhandubha bhatendaga kwaapuganyanga bhandunji bhetu, bhalikwalimbiyanga kulipa koli kwa a Kaishali na bhalikwiishema a Kilishitu na a mpalume.”

3 A Pilato gubhaabhushiye a Yeshu, “Mmwe a mpalume bha Bhayaudi?” A Yeshu gubhaajangwile “Mmwe ni nkubheleketa.”

4 A Pilato gubhaabhalanjilenje ashikalongolele bha bhaabhishila na lugwinjili lwa bhandu, “Ngakushibhona shibhalebhile abha bhandubha.”

5 Ikabheje na bhalabhonji gubhapundilenje kukwiya bhalinkutinji, “Bhanakwiya nnjasha kwa majiganyo gabho nshilambo showe sha ku Yudea, kundubhila ku Galilaya, mpaka apano.”

6 A Pilato bhakapilikaneje genego gubhabhushiye, “Bhuli, abha bhandubha bha ku Galilaya?” 7 Bhakamumanyeje kuti a Yeshu bhaliji mu Ukulungwa gwa a Elode, gubhaapeleshe kwa a Elode, pabha gene mobhago pubhaliji pa Yelushalemu pepala.

8 A Elode guyaanonyele bhakaabhoneje a Yeshu. Pabha bhapilikene ngani jabho, kwa nneyo kwa mobha gamagwinji bhatendaga loleya kwaabhona. Na kabhili bhatendaga pinga bhaabhone bhalitenda ilangulo. 9 Bhai, a Elode gubhakabhile nkwabhuya, ikabheje a Yeshu bhangaajangula shoshowe. 10 Ashikalongolele bha bhaabhishila na bhaajandika bha shalia, gubhajimingene nkukong'ondela mashitaka gabhonji kwa kakati. 11 Bhai, a Elode na ashimanjola bhabho, gubhaalembulenje a Yeshu nikwatendela mbenji, kungai gubhaawashiyenje lijoo lya Upalume, gubhabhujilenabhonji kwa a Pilato. 12 A Elode na a Pilato bhukala pubhalinginji bhamagongo, kutandubhila lyene lyubhalyo gubhalinginji bhambwiga.

13 Bhai, a Pilato gubhashemile shitamo sha ashikalongolele bha bhaabhishila na ashikalongolele bhana bha bhandunji, 14 gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Nshimbeleshelanga abha bhandubha kuti, bhanaapuganya bhandu. Ngakagulileje lyene lilobheli pameyo genunji, nangashibhona shibhalebhile shilingana na mashitaka genunji. 15 Numbe nngabha nne jikape, ikabhe nkali a Elode bhangashibhona shoshowe shibhalebhile, nigubhamujishiye. Pabha abha bhandubha shakwapi shibhatendile shapinjikwa bhaukumulwe kubhulagwa. 16 Kwa nneyo shinajile bhakomwe ibhoko, kungai shinaaleshelele.”

17 Pabha bhashinkupinjikwa kwaagopolelanga nkutabhwa jumo lyubha lya shikukuu* Majandiko gana gangali nshitali gwa 17.

18 Ikabheje bhowe gwaajobhelenje gwanakamo, “Mwaabhulaje abho, ntugopolele a Bhalabha!” 19 A Bhalabha bhashinkutabhwa kwa ligongo lya nnjasha yatendeshe pa shilambo na ligongo lya bhulaga bhandu.

20 A Pilato bhapinjile kwaaleshelela a Yeshu, bhai gubhakungulwishe kabhili na bhandunji, 21 ikabheje bhalabhonji gubhapundilenje jobhela, “Mwaakomele munshalabha, mwaakomele munshalabha!”

22 A Pilato gubhaabhalanjilenje gwatatu, “Bhalebhile nndi? Ngakushibhona shoshowe shibhalebhile shapinjikwa bhabhulagwe, kwa nneyo shindume bhakomwe ibhoko, naaleshelele.”

23 Ikabheje bhalabhonji gubhapundilenje kujobhela, kuti a Yeshu bhanapinjikwa bhakomelwe munshalabha. Kungai, malobhe gabhonji gugapilikanishe. 24 Bhai a Pilato gubhaukumwile kuti, itendeshe malinga shibhapinjilenje. 25 Gubhaaleshelele a Bhalabha bhatabhilwe kwa ligongo lya nnjasha na bhulaga bhandu. Gubhaakamwiye a Yeshu kwa ashimanjola, bhaatendelanje malinga shibhapingangaga.

26 Bhalinginji nkwaapeleka, gubhaimikenenje naka mundu jumo ashemwaga Shimoni jwa ku Kilene, alikopoka kunngunda. Bhai, gubhankamwilenje, gubhantwishilenje nshalabha gula aujigale nnyuma ja a Yeshu.

27 Bhandunji, makundi kwa makundi gubhaakagulenje, munkumbimo bhapalinji bhanabhakongwe bhaagutilangaga ililo. 28 A Yeshu gubhaatendebhushilenje, gubhashite, “Mmanganya ashinabhiti bha pa Yelushalemu! Nnang'utilanje nne, ikabhe mwiigutilanje mwaashayene na ashibhana bhenu. 29 Pabha, shigaishe mobha pushimmeleketanje, mbaya ashinannii na bhakanabhe kolanga wala kujonjeya! 30 Penepo, bhandunji shibhailugululanje itumbi, ‘Ntugwilanje!’ Na ijomboya, ‘Ntuunishilanje’! 31 Ibhaga bhandunji bhakuutendelanga nnei nkongo gwa mmii, shiibhe bhuli kwa nkongo gwa nnjumu?”

32 Bhandunji bhana bhabhili bhaalebhanga, bhashinkupelekwanga bhabhulagwanje pamo na a Yeshu. 33 Bhakaikanganeje pashemwaga, Shibhanga sha Ntwe, penepo gubhaakomelenje munshalabha a Yeshu na bhandunji bhabhili bhaalebhanga bhala, jumo kunkono nnilo, na juna kunkono nshinda. 34 A Yeshu gubhashite, “Atati mwaaleshelelanje, pabha bhakakwimanyanga ibhatendanga.” Gubhagebhenenje nngubho yabho kwa tendela shikoma.

35 Bhandunji gubhajimingene bhalilosheyanga. Na bhalabhonji ashikalongolele bha Shiyaudi gubhaatendelenje mbenji bhalinkutinji, “Bhashikwatapulanga bhananji, nnaino bhaitapule bhayene, monaga bhenebha bhali a Kilishitu bha a Nnungu!”

36 Ashimanjola nneyo peyo gubhaatendelenje mbenji a Yeshu, gubhaajendelenje nikwaapa divai ja shashama bhapapile, 37 bhalinkutinji, “Monaga mmwe nni A mpalume bha Bhayaudi, mwiitapule mmayene.”

38 Na pantundu nshalabha gwabho pashinkujandikwa mmbila “BHENEBHA A MPALUME BHA BHAYAUDI.”

39 Na nkulebha jumo akomelwe munshalabha jula, gwabhatukene alinkuti, “Bhuli, igala mmwe nngati a Kilishitu? Bhai mwiitapule mmayene, ntutapule na uwe.”

40 Ikabheje nkulebha juna jula gwankalipile mwine alinkuti, “Ugwe ukakwaajogopa a Nnungu? Numbe uli na ukumu jojo. 41 Uwe tushiukumulwa kwa aki, kwa itendi yetu. Ikabheje abha bhandubha shakwapi shoshowe shibhalebhile.” 42 Kungai nigwashite, “Mmwe a Yeshu! Nngumbushile pushinnjinjile mu Upalume gwenupo.”

43 A Yeshu gubhannjangwile, “Kweli ngunakuubhalanjila, lelope shuubhe na nne kupaladisho.”

44 Puyaaliji malanga ga shaa shita ja mui, lubhindu lukutabhaga shilambo showe mpaka shaa tisha, 45 na lukulungushi lwa Nniekalu lukupapukaga ipande ibhili. 46 A Yeshu gubhagutile kwa utiya, “Atati, mmakono genu ngunabhika mbumu yangu.” Bhakamaliyeje kubheleketa genego gubhamalile.

47 Penepo, bhakulungwa bha ashimanjola bhala bhakagabhoneje gatendeshe gala, gubhaaniye a Nnungu bhalinkuti, “Kweli abha bhandubha pubhaliji bha aki.”

48 Bhandu bhowe bhaikengene pepala kulolesheya genego, bhakagabhonanjeje gene gatendeshe gala, gubhabhujilengene kunngwabhonji, bhalikwikomanga pantima nkuinjika. 49 Ashambwiga ajabho a Yeshu, na bhanabhakongwe bhakagulangaga kukopoka ku Galilaya, gubhajimingene kwa talika bhalilolesheyanga genego.

50 Bhai bhashinkupagwa bhandu bhamo lina lyabho a Yoshepu, bhaliji bhanguja na bha aki. Pubhaliji bha lukumbi lukulu lwa Bhayaudi, 51 ikabheje bhenebho bhanganonyelwa na ukumu na itendi ya ashikalongolele ajabho. Bhenebha pubhaliji bhashilambo bha ku Alimataya shilambo sha Bhayaudi. Na bhatendaga lindilila kuika kwa Upalume gwa a Nnungu kwa nnolelo nkulu. 52 A Yoshepu gubhaajendele a Pilato, gubhajujile bhapegwe shiilu sha a Yeshu. 53 Kungai gubhatulwiye shiilu munshalabha, gubhailijilile shanda ja kitani ja mmbone, gubhabhishile nnikabhuli lyaolilwe nnindandawe likulungwa, lyaliji likanabhe shikwa mundu. 54 Pulyaaliji lyubha lya kolokoya indu ya Lyubha lya Pumulila, na pulyaaliji tome na tandubha.

55 Bhanabhakongwe bhajilengene pamo na a Yeshu kukopoka ku Galilaya, gubhaakagwilenje a Yoshepu, gubhaliweninji likabhuli na shibhashite kwaashika a Yeshu. 56 Kungai, gubhabhujengene kumui, gubhajenjilenje mauta ga nunjila ga kwenda pakaya shiilu sha a Yeshu. Lyubha lya Pumulila, gubhapumulilenje malinga shiyalajilwe na shalia.
