¹After two days was the feast of the passover, and of unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft, and put him to death.

¹Rehefa indroa andro no sisa tsy hahatongavan'ny Paska, fihinanana ny mofo tsy misy masirasira, dia nitady hisambotra an'i Jesosy tamin'ny fitaka ny lohan'ny mpisorona sy ny mpanora-dalàna mba hamonoany Azy.

²But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar of the people.

²Nefa hoy izy: Tsy amin'ny andro firavoravoana, fandrao hampitabataba ny vahoaka.

³And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious; and she brake the box, and poured it on his head.

³Ary nony tany Betania Jesosy tao an-tranon'i Simona boka ka nipetraka nihinana, dia avy ny vehivavy anankiray nitondra tavoara alabastara feno menaka manitra nisy narda saro-bidy indrindra; dia novakiny ny tavoara, ka naidiny tamin'ny lohan'i Jesosy ny menaka.

⁴And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?

⁴Ary nisy ny sasany tezitra ka nifampilaza hoe: Inona no anton'izao fandaniam-poana ny menaka manitra izao?

⁵For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.

⁵Fa azo namidy ho lafo tsy omby denaria telon-jato iny menaka manitra iny ka homena ny malahelo. Dia tezitra indrindra tamin-dravehivavy ireo.

⁶And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a good work on me.

⁶Fa hoy Jesosy taminy: Avelao izy; nahoana ianareo no mampalahelo azy? Asa soa no nataony tamiko.

⁷For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not always.

⁷Fa ny malahelo dia eto aminareo mandrakariva, ary na oviana na oviana no tianareo hanaovana soa aminy, dia mahazo manao ianareo; fa Izaho kosa tsy mba ho eto aminareo mandrakariva.

⁸She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying.

⁸Efa nanao izay azony natao izy: namonjy nanosotra ny tenako hanamboarany Ahy halevina izy.

⁹Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.

⁹Ary lazaiko aminareo marina tokoa: Na aiza na aiza amin'izao tontolo izao no hitoriana ny filazantsara, dia holazaina koa izao nataon-dravehivavy izao mba ho fahatsiarovana azy.

¹⁰And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests, to betray him unto them.

¹⁰Ary Jodasy Iskariota, ilay isan'ny roa ambin'ny folo lahy, dia nankeo amin'ny lohan'ny mpisorona hamadika an'i Jesosy aminy.

¹¹And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.

¹¹Ary rehefa nandre izany izy ireo, dia faly ka nanaiky hanome vola azy. Ary Jodasy dia nitady izay andro hahazoany mamadika Azy.

¹²And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that thou mayest eat the passover?

¹²Ary tamin'ny voalohan'ny andro fihinanana ny mofo tsy misy masirasira, izay famonoana ny Paska, dia hoy ny mpianany taminy: Aiza no tianao halehanay hanamboaranay mba hihinananao ny Paska?

¹³And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto them, Go ye into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water: follow him.

¹³Dia naniraka roa lahy tamin'ny mpianany Izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Mankanesa any an-tanàna, ary hisy lehilahy mitondra siny feno rano hifanena aminareo; dia manaraha azy.

¹⁴And wheresoever he shall go in, say ye to the goodman of the house, The Master saith, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?

¹⁴Ary lazao amin'ny tompon'ny trano izay hidirany hoe: Izao no lazain'ny Mpampianatra: Aiza ny efi-trano hiarahako mihinana ny Paska amin'ny mpianatro?

¹⁵And he will shew you a large upper room furnished and prepared: there make ready for us.

¹⁵Ary izy hanoro anareo efi-trano malalaka ambony rihana izay voaisy fipetrahana sady voavoatra tsara; any no amboary ho antsika.

¹⁶And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.

¹⁶Ary ny mpianatra nandeha, dia tonga tany an-tanàna ka nahita araka izay nolazainy taminy; dia namboatra ny Paska izy.

¹⁷And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.

¹⁷Ary nony hariva ny andro, dia tonga Izy sy ny roa ambin'ny folo lahy.

¹⁸And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you which eateth with me shall betray me.

¹⁸Ary raha nipetraka nihinana izy, dia hoy Jesosy: Lazaiko aminareo marina tokoa fa ny anankiray aminareo, dia izay iray miara-mihinana amiko, no hamadika Ahy.

¹⁹And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I? and another said, Is it I?

¹⁹Dia nalahelo izy, ka samy nanontany Azy tsirairay hoe: Izaho va izany?

²⁰And he answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that dippeth with me in the dish.

²⁰Ary Izy nanao taminy hoe: Izay anankiray amin'ny roa ambin'ny folo lahy miara-manatsoboka amiko ao anatin'ny lovia no izy.

²¹The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had never been born.

²¹Fa ny Zanak'olona dia mandeha tokoa, araka ny nanoratana Azy, nefa lozan'izay olona hahazoana ny Zanak'olona hatolotra! Tsara ho an'izany olona izany raha tsy ary akory.

²²And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.

²²Ary raha mbola nihinana izy, Jesosy nandray mofo; ka nony efa nisaotra, dia novakiny ka natolony azy ary nataony hoe: Raiso, ity no tenako.

²³And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all drank of it.

²³Dia nandray kapoaka Izy, ka nony efa nisaotra, dia natolony azy; ka dia nisotroan'izy rehetra izany.

²⁴And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.

²⁴Ary hoy Izy taminy: Ity no rako amin'ny fanekena, izay alatsaka hamonjy ny maro.[Na: fanekena vaovao]

²⁵Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.

²⁵Lazaiko aminareo marina tokoa: Tsy mba hisotro ny vokatry ny voaloboka intsony Aho mandre-pihavin'ny andro hisotroako izay vaovao any amin'ny fanjakan'Andriamanitra.

²⁶And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.

²⁶Ary rehefa nihira fiderana izy, dia lasa nankany an-tendrombohitra Oliva.

²⁷And Jesus saith unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.

²⁷Ary hoy Jesosy taminy: Ho tafintohina avokoa ianareo rehetra; fa voasoratra hoe: Hamely ny mpiandry Aho, dia hihahaka ny ondry (Zak. 13. 7).

²⁸But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.

²⁸Fa rehefa mitsangana Aho, dia hialoha anareo ho any Galilia.

²⁹But Peter said unto him, Although all shall be offended, yet will not I.

²⁹Fa hoy Petera taminy: Na dia ho tafintohina avokoa aza ny olona rehetra, izaho tsy mba ho tafintohina.

³⁰And Jesus saith unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice.

³⁰Ary hoy Jesosy taminy: Lazaiko aminao marina tokoa: Anio, dia amin'ity alina ity, raha tsy mbola misy akoho maneno fanindroany, dia handà Ahy intelo ianao.

³¹But he spake the more vehemently, If I should die with thee, I will not deny thee in any wise. Likewise also said they all.

³¹Fa vao mainka niteny mafy dia mafy izy hoe: Na dia hiara-maty aminao aza aho, tsy mba handà Anao tokoa aho. Ary toy izany koa no nolazain'izy rehetra.

³²And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray.

³²Ary tonga tany amin'ny saha izay atao hoe Getsemane izy; dia hoy Jesosy tamin'ny mpianany: Mipetraha eto ianareo mandra-pivavako.

³³And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy;

³³Ary nitondra an'i Petera sy Jakoba sy Jaona Izy, dia talanjona sady ory indrindra.

³⁴And saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: tarry ye here, and watch.

³⁴Ary hoy Izy taminy: Fadiranovana loatra ny fanahiko toy ny efa ho faty; mitoera eto, ka miareta tory.

³⁵And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.

³⁵Ary nony nandroso kelikely Izy, dia niankohoka tamin'ny tany ka nivavaka mba hialan'izany ora izany aminy, raha azo atao.

³⁶And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.

³⁶Ary hoy Izy: Aba, Raiko ô, ny zavatra rehetra hainao; esory amiko ity kapoaka ity; nefa aoka tsy ny sitrapoko anie no hatao, fa ny Anao.

³⁷And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch one hour?

³⁷Ary avy Izy ka nahita azy ireo matory, dia hoy Izy tamin'i Petera: Ry Simona, matory va ianao? Tsy nahazaka niari-tory na dia ora iray ihany aza va ianao?

³⁸Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak.

³⁸Miareta tory ianareo, ka mivavaha, mba tsy hidiranareo amin'ny fakam-panahy; mety ihany ny fanahy, fa ny nofo no tsy manan-kery.

³⁹And again he went away, and prayed, and spake the same words.

³⁹Dia lasa indray Izy ka nivavaka nanao ilay teny teo ihany.

⁴⁰And when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their eyes were heavy,) neither wist they what to answer him.

⁴⁰Ary nony niverina indray Izy, dia nahita azy matory, fa efa nilondolondo ny masony, ka tsy hitany izay havaliny Azy.

⁴¹And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

⁴¹Ary avy fanintelony Izy, dia nanao taminy hoe: Matoria ary ankehitriny, ka mialà sasatra ianareo. Aoka izay; efa tonga ny ora; indro, ny Zanak'olona hatolotra ao an-tànan'ny mpanota.

⁴²Rise up, let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand.

⁴²Mitsangàna, andeha isika; indro fa efa akaiky ilay mamadika Ahy.

⁴³And immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

⁴³Ary niaraka tamin'izay, raha mbola niteny Izy, dia avy Jodasy, isan'ny roa ambin'ny folo lahy, sady nisy vahoaka niaraka taminy, nitondra sabatra sy langilangy, nirahin'ny lohan'ny mpisorona sy ny mpanora-dalàna ary ny loholona.

⁴⁴And he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he; take him, and lead him away safely.

⁴⁴Ary ilay hamadika Azy efa nanome famantarana ireo ka nanao hoe: Izay horohako no Izy; sambory Izy ka ento, fa aza avela ho afaka.

⁴⁵And as soon as he was come, he goeth straightway to him, and saith, Master, master; and kissed him.

⁴⁵Ary rehefa tonga izy, dia nanatona an'i Jesosy niaraka tamin'izay ka nanao hoe: Raby ô! dia nanoroka Azy izy.

⁴⁶And they laid their hands on him, and took him.

⁴⁶Ary ny olona naninjitra ny tànany taminy ka nisambotra Azy.

⁴⁷And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

⁴⁷Ary ny anankiray tamin'izay teo anilany nanatsoaka ny sabany, dia nikapa ny mpanompon'ny mpisoronabe ka nahafaka ny sofiny.

⁴⁸And Jesus answered and said unto them, Are ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and with staves to take me?

⁴⁸Ary Jesosy namaly ka nanao taminy hoe: Mivoaka mitondra sabatra sy langilangy hisambotra Ahy toy ny hisambotra jiolahy va ianareo?

⁴⁹I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me not: but the scriptures must be fulfilled.

⁴⁹Teo aminareo isan'andro Aho an-kianjan'ny tempoly, nefa tsy nisambotra Ahy ianareo; fa mba hahatanteraka ny Soratra Masina izao.

⁵⁰And they all forsook him, and fled.

⁵⁰Ary samy nandao Azy izy rehetra ka nandositra.

⁵¹And there followed him a certain young man, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body; and the young men laid hold on him:

⁵¹Ary nisy zatovo anankiray nanaraka Azy, ka lamba hariry madinika fotsiny ihany no nitafiany, ary nosamborin'ny olona teo izy.

⁵²And he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.

⁵²Dia navelany teny aminy ny lambany hariry madinika, ka nandositra nitanjaka izy.

⁵³And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and with him were assembled all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.

⁵³Ary nitondra an'i Jesosy ho any amin'ny mpisoronabe izy; ary niangona teo aminy ny lohan'ny mpisorona rehetra sy ny loholona ary ny mpanora-dalàna.

⁵⁴And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest: and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire.

⁵⁴Ary Petera efa nanaraka Azy teny lavidavitra eny hatrany amin'ny kianjan'ny tranon'ny mpisoronabe; ary niara-nipetraka teo amin'ny mpiandry raharaha izy namindro teo anilan'ny afo.

⁵⁵And the chief priests and all the council sought for witness against Jesus to put him to death; and found none.

⁵⁵Ary ny lohan'ny mpisorona sy ny Synedriona rehetra nitady vavolombelona hiampanga an'i Jesosy hamonoany Azy, nefa tsy nahita.

⁵⁶For many bare false witness against him, but their witness agreed not together.

⁵⁶Fa maro no niampanga lainga Azy, nefa tsy nifanaraka ny fiampangany.

⁵⁷And there arose certain, and bare false witness against him, saying,

⁵⁷Ary nitsangana ny sasany, dia niampanga lainga Azy nanao hoe:

⁵⁸We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.

⁵⁸Izahay efa nandre Azy nanao hoe: Izaho handrava ity tempoly nataon-tanana ity, ary amin'ny hateloana dia hanangana hafa izay tsy nataon-tanana Aho.

⁵⁹But neither so did their witness agree together.

⁵⁹Fa tsy nifanaraka ny filàzany na dia tamin'izany aza.

⁶⁰And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?

⁶⁰Ary ny mpisoronabe nitsangana nankeo afovoany, dia nanontany an'i Jesosy ka nanao hoe: Tsy mety mamaly akory va Hianao? Inona no iampangan'ireto Anao?

⁶¹But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?

⁶¹Fa tsy niteny Jesosy sady tsy namaly akory. Dia nanontany Azy indray ny mpisoronabe ka nanao taminy hoe: Hianao va no Kristy, Zanaky ny Isaorana?

⁶²And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.

⁶²Ary hoy Jesosy: Izaho no Izy; ary ho hitanareo ny Zanak'olona mipetraka eo ankavanan'ny Hery sady avy eo amin'ny rahon'ny lanitra.

⁶³Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What need we any further witnesses?

⁶³Ary ny mpisoronabe nandriatra ny fitafiany ka nanao hoe: Ahoana no mbola ilantsika vavolombelona indray?

⁶⁴Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they all condemned him to be guilty of death.

⁶⁴Efa renareo ny fitenenany ratsy; ahoana no hevitrareo? Dia nataon'izy rehetra fa miendrika ho faty Izy.[Gr. blasfemia, izahao Mat. 9.3]

⁶⁵And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say unto him, Prophesy: and the servants did strike him with the palms of their hands.

⁶⁵Ary ny sasany nandrora Azy, dia nanarona ny tavany sady namely tahamaina Azy ka nanao hoe: Maminania; ary ny mpiandry raharaha namely tahamaina Azy koa.[Na. tehina]

⁶⁶And as Peter was beneath in the palace, there cometh one of the maids of the high priest:

⁶⁶Ary raha nitoetra teo ambany teo an-kianja Petera, dia avy ny anankiray tamin'ny ankizivavin'ny mpisoronabe;

⁶⁷And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and said, And thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.

⁶⁷ary nony nahita an'i Petera namindro izy, dia nijery azy ka nanao hoe: Hianao koa nomba an'i Jesosy avy any Nazareta.

⁶⁸But he denied, saying, I know not, neither understand I what thou sayest. And he went out into the porch; and the cock crew.

⁶⁸Fa izy nandà ka nanao hoe: Tsy fantatro sy tsy azoko ny teninao. Dia niala ho eo am-bavahady izy, ary nisy akoho naneno.

⁶⁹And a maid saw him again, and began to say to them that stood by, This is one of them.

⁶⁹Ary ilay ankizivavy nahita azy indray, dia niteny tamin'izay teo anilany hoe: Io lehilahy io mba naman'ireny;

⁷⁰And he denied it again. And a little after, they that stood by said again to Peter, Surely thou art one of them: for thou art a Galilaean, and thy speech agreeth thereto.

⁷⁰fa izy nandà indray. Ary nony afaka kelikely, izay teo anilany koa dia nilaza tamin'i Petera hoe: Naman'ireo tokoa ianao; fa Galiliana ianao.

⁷¹But he began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not this man of whom ye speak.

⁷¹Dia niozona sy nianiana izy ka nanao hoe: Tsy fantatro izany Lehilahy lazainareo izany.Ary niaraka tamin'izay dia nisy akoho naneno fanindroany. Ary Petera nahatsiaro ny teny izay nolazain'i Jesosy taminy hoe: Raha tsy mbola misy akoho maneno fanindroany, dia handà Ahy intelo ianao. Ary nony nieritreritra izany izy, dia nitomany.

⁷²And the second time the cock crew. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus said unto him, Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice. And when he thought thereon, he wept.

⁷²Ary niaraka tamin'izay dia nisy akoho naneno fanindroany. Ary Petera nahatsiaro ny teny izay nolazain'i Jesosy taminy hoe: Raha tsy mbola misy akoho maneno fanindroany, dia handà Ahy intelo ianao. Ary nony nieritreritra izany izy, dia nitomany.
