¹And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.

¹ወዲያውም ማለዳ የካህናት አለቆች ከሽማግሌዎችና ከጻፎች ከሸንጎውም ሁሉ ጋር ከተማከሩ በኋላ፥ ኢየሱስን አሳስረው ወሰዱትና ለጲላጦስ አሳልፈው ሰጡት።

²And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said unto them, Thou sayest it.

²ጲላጦስም። አንተ የአይሁድ ንጉሥ ነህን? ብሎ ጠየቀው። እርሱም። አንተ አልህ ብሎ መለሰለት።

³And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.

³የካህናት አለቆችም ብዙ ያሳጡት ነበር፤ እርሱ ግን ምንም አልመለሰም።

⁴And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against thee.

⁴ጲላጦስም ደግሞ። አንዳች አትመልስምን? እነሆ፥ በስንት ነገር ያሳጡሃል ብሎ ጠየቀው።

⁵But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.

⁵ኢየሱስም ከዚያ በኋላ ጲላጦስ እስኪደነቅ ድረስ ምንም አልመለሰም።

⁶Now at that feast he released unto them one prisoner, whomsoever they desired.

⁶በዚያም በዓል የለመኑትን አንድ እስረኛ ይፈታላቸው ነበር።

⁷And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.

⁷በዓመፅም ነፍስ ከገደሉት ከዓመፀኞች ጋር የታሰረ በርባን የተባለ ነበረ።

⁸And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto them.

⁸ሕዝቡም ወጥተው እንደ ልማዱ ያደርግላቸው ዘንድ እየጮኹ ይለምኑት ጀመር።

⁹But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews?

⁹ጲላጦስም። የአይሁድን ንጉሥ እፈታላችሁ ዘንድ ትወዳላችሁን? ብሎ መለሰላቸው፤

¹⁰For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.

¹⁰የካህናት አለቆች በቅንዓት አሳልፈው እንደ ሰጡት ያውቅ ነበርና።

¹¹But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them.

¹¹የካህናት አለቆች ግን በርባንን በእርሱ ፈንታ ይፈታላቸው ዘንድ ሕዝቡን አወኩአቸው።

¹²And Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will ye then that I shall do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews?

¹²ጲላጦስም ዳግመኛ መልሶ። እንግዲህ የአይሁድ ንጉሥ የምትሉትን ምን ላደርገው ትወዳላችሁ? አላቸው።

¹³And they cried out again, Crucify him.

¹³እነርሱም ዳግመኛ። ስቀለው እያሉ ጮኹ።

¹⁴Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.

¹⁴ጲላጦስም። ምን ነው? ያደረገው ክፋት ምንድር ነው? አላቸው። እነርሱ ግን። ስቀለው እያሉ ጩኸት አበዙ።

¹⁵And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.

¹⁵ጲላጦስም የሕዝቡን ፈቃድ ሊያደርግ ወዶ በርባንን ፈታላቸው፥ ኢየሱስንም ገርፎ እንዲሰቀል አሳልፎ ሰጠ።

¹⁶And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and they call together the whole band.

¹⁶ወታደሮችም ፕራይቶሪዮን ወደሚባል ግቢ ውስጥ ወሰዱት፥ ጭፍራውንም ሁሉ በአንድነት ጠሩ።

¹⁷And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head,

¹⁷ቀይ ልብስም አለበሱት፥ የእሾህ አክሊልም ጎንጉነው ደፉበት፤

¹⁸And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!

¹⁸የአይሁድ ንጉሥ ሆይ፥ ሰላም ለአንተ ይሁን እያሉ እጅ ይነሱት ጀመር፤

¹⁹And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.

¹⁹ራሱንም በመቃ መቱት ተፉበትም፥ ተንበርክከውም ሰገዱለት።

²⁰And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.

²⁰ከተዘባበቱበትም በኋላ ቀዩን ልብስ ገፈፉት፥ ልብሱንም አለበሱት፥ ሊሰቅሉትም ወሰዱት።

²¹And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.

²¹አንድ መንገድ አላፊም የአሌክስንድሮስና የሩፎስ አባት ስምዖን የተባለ የቀሬና ሰው ከገጠር ሲመጣ መስቀሉን ይሸከም ዘንድ አስገደዱት።

²²And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull.

²²ትርጓሜውም የራስ ቅል ስፍራ ወደሚሆን ጎልጎታ ወደተባለ ስፍራ ወሰዱት።

²³And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not.

²³ከርቤም የተቀላቀለበትን የወይን ጠጅ እንዲጠጣ ሰጡት፤ እርሱ ግን አልተቀበለም።

²⁴And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.

²⁴ሰቀሉትም፥ ልብሱንም ማን ማን እንዲወስድ ዕጣ ተጣጥለው ተካፈሉ።

²⁵And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.

²⁵በሰቀሉትም ጊዜ ሦስት ሰዓት ነበረ።

²⁶And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

²⁶የክሱ ጽሕፈትም። የአይሁድ ንጉሥ የሚል ተጽፎ ነበር።

²⁷And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.

²⁷ከእርሱም ጋር ሁለት ወንበዶች አንዱን በቀኙ አንዱንም በግራው ሰቀሉ።

²⁸And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors.

²⁸መጽሐፍም። ከአመፀኞች ጋር ተቆጠረ ያለው ተፈጸመ።

²⁹And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days,

²⁹የሚያልፉትም ራሳቸውን እየነቀነቁ ይሰድቡት ነበርና። ዋ፥ ቤተ መቅደስን የምታፈርስ በሦስት ቀንም የምትሠራ፥

³⁰Save thyself, and come down from the cross.

³⁰ከመስቀል ወርደህ ራስህን አድን አሉ።

³¹Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.

³¹እንዲሁም የካህናት አለቆች ደግሞ ከጻፎች ጋር እርስ በርሳቸው እየተዘባበቱ። ሌሎችን አዳነ፤ ራሱን ሊያድን አይችልም፤

³²Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him.

³²አይተን እናምን ዘንድ የእስራኤል ንጉሥ ክርስቶስ አሁን ከመስቀል ይውረድ አሉ። ከእርሱም ጋር የተሰቀሉት ይነቅፉት ነበር።

³³And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.

³³ስድስት ሰዓትም በሆነ ጊዜ፥ እስከ ዘጠኝ ሰዓት በምድር ሁሉ ላይ ጨለማ ሆነ።

³⁴And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

³⁴በዘጠኝ ሰዓትም ኢየሱስ። ኤሎሄ፥ ኤሎሄ፥ ላማ ሰበቅታኒ? ብሎ በታላቅ ድምፅ ጮኸ፤ ትርጓሜውም አምላኬ፥ አምላኬ፥ ለምን ተውኸኝ? ማለት ነው።

³⁵And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calleth Elias.

³⁵በዚያም ከቆሙት ሰዎች ሰምተው። እነሆ፥ ኤልያስን ይጠራል አሉ።

³⁶And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take him down.

³⁶አንዱም ሮጦ ሆምጣጤ በሰፍነግ ሞላ በመቃም አድርጎ። ተዉ፤ ኤልያስ ሊያወርደው ይመጣ እንደ ሆነ እንይ እያለ አጠጣው።

³⁷And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.

³⁷ኢየሱስም በታላቅ ድምፅ ጮኸ ነፍሱንም ሰጠ።

³⁸And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.

³⁸የቤተ መቅደስም መጋረጃ ከላይ እስከ ታች ከሁለት ተቀደደ።

³⁹And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.

³⁹በዚያም በአንጻሩ የቆመ የመቶ አለቃ እንደዚህ ጮኾ ነፍሱን እንደ ሰጠ ባየ ጊዜ። ይህ ሰው በእውነት የእግዚአብሔር ልጅ ነበረ አለ።

⁴⁰There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;

⁴⁰ሴቶችም ደግሞ በሩቅ ሆነው ይመለከቱ ነበር፤ ከእነርሱም በገሊላ ሳለ ይከተሉትና ያገለግሉት የነበሩ መግደላዊት ማርያም የታናሹ ያዕቆብና የዮሳም እናት ማርያም ሰሎሜም ነበሩ፥ ከእርሱም ጋር ወደ ኢየሩሳሌም የወጡ ሌሎች ብዙዎች ሴቶች ነበሩ።

⁴¹(Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him;) and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem.

⁴²አሁንም በመሸ ጊዜ የሰንበት ዋዜማ የሆነ የማዘጋጀት ቀን ስለ ነበረ፥ የከበረ አማካሪ የሆነ የአርማትያስ ዮሴፍ መጣ፥

⁴²And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath,

⁴³እርሱም ደግሞ የእግዚአብሔርን መንግሥት ይጠባበቅ ነበር፤ ደፍሮም ወደ ጲላጦስ ገባና የኢየሱስን ሥጋ ለመነው።

⁴³Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus.

⁴⁴ጲላጦስም አሁኑን እንዴት ሞተ ብሎ ተደነቀ፥ የመቶ አለቃውንም ጠርቶ ከሞተ ቆይቶአልን? ብሎ ጠየቀው፤

⁴⁴And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead.

⁴⁵ከመቶ አለቃውም ተረድቶ በድኑን ለዮሴፍ ሰጠው።

⁴⁵And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.

⁴⁶በፍታም ገዝቶ አውርዶም በበፍታ ከፈነው ከዓለትም በተወቀረ መቃብር አኖረው፥ በመቃብሩ ደጃፍም ድንጋይ አንከባለለ።

⁴⁶And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre.

⁴⁷መግደላዊትም ማርያም የዮሳም እናት ማርያም ወዴት እንዳኖሩት ይመለከቱ ነበር።

⁴⁷And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.
