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

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

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

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

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

³And the chief priests accused him of many things.

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

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

⁵ኢየሱስም ከዚያ በኋላ ጲላጦስ እስኪደነቅ ድረስ ምንም አልመለሰም።

⁵But Jesus no more answered anything; insomuch that Pilate marvelled.

⁶በዚያም በዓል የለመኑትን አንድ እስረኛ ይፈታላቸው ነበር።

⁶Now at the feast he used to release unto them one prisoner, whom they asked of him.

⁷በዓመፅም ነፍስ ከገደሉት ከዓመፀኞች ጋር የታሰረ በርባን የተባለ ነበረ።

⁷And there was one called Barabbas, [lying] bound with them that had made insurrection, men who in the insurrection had committed murder.

⁸ሕዝቡም ወጥተው እንደ ልማዱ ያደርግላቸው ዘንድ እየጮኹ ይለምኑት ጀመር።

⁸And the multitude went up and began to ask him [to do] as he was wont to do unto them.

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

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

¹⁰የካህናት አለቆች በቅንዓት አሳልፈው እንደ ሰጡት ያውቅ ነበርና።

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

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

¹¹But the chief priests stirred up the multitude, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them.

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

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

¹³እነርሱም ዳግመኛ። ስቀለው እያሉ ጮኹ።

¹³And they cried out again, Crucify him.

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

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

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

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

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

¹⁶And the soldiers led him away within the court, which is the Praetorium; and they call together the whole band.

¹⁷ቀይ ልብስም አለበሱት፥ የእሾህ አክሊልም ጎንጉነው ደፉበት፤

¹⁷And they clothe him with purple, and platting a crown of thorns, they put it on him;

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

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

¹⁹ራሱንም በመቃ መቱት ተፉበትም፥ ተንበርክከውም ሰገዱለት።

¹⁹And they smote his head with a reed, and spat upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.

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

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

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

²¹And they compel one passing by, Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to go [with them], that he might bear his cross.

²²ትርጓሜውም የራስ ቅል ስፍራ ወደሚሆን ጎልጎታ ወደተባለ ስፍራ ወሰዱት።

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

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

²³And they offered him wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not.

²⁴ሰቀሉትም፥ ልብሱንም ማን ማን እንዲወስድ ዕጣ ተጣጥለው ተካፈሉ።

²⁴And they crucify him, and part his garments among them, casting lots upon them, what each should take.

²⁵በሰቀሉትም ጊዜ ሦስት ሰዓት ነበረ።

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

²⁶የክሱ ጽሕፈትም። የአይሁድ ንጉሥ የሚል ተጽፎ ነበር።

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

²⁷ከእርሱም ጋር ሁለት ወንበዶች አንዱን በቀኙ አንዱንም በግራው ሰቀሉ።

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

²⁸መጽሐፍም። ከአመፀኞች ጋር ተቆጠረ ያለው ተፈጸመ።

²⁸[And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was reckoned with transgressors.]

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

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

³⁰ከመስቀል ወርደህ ራስህን አድን አሉ።

³⁰save thyself, and come down from the cross.

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

³¹In like manner also the chief priests mocking [him] among themselves with the scribes said, He saved others; himself he cannot save.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

³⁶And one ran, and filling a sponge full of vinegar, put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let be; let us see whether Elijah cometh to take him down.

³⁷ኢየሱስም በታላቅ ድምፅ ጮኸ ነፍሱንም ሰጠ።

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

³⁸የቤተ መቅደስም መጋረጃ ከላይ እስከ ታች ከሁለት ተቀደደ።

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

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

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

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።

⁴⁰And there were also women beholding from afar: among whom [were] both Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;

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

⁴¹who, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him; and many other women that came up with him unto Jerusalem.

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

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

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

⁴³there came Joseph of Arimathaea, a councillor of honorable estate, who also himself was looking for the kingdom of God; and he boldly went in unto Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus.

⁴⁵ከመቶ አለቃውም ተረድቶ በድኑን ለዮሴፍ ሰጠው።

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

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

⁴⁵And when he learned it of the centurion, he granted the corpse to Joseph.

⁴⁷መግደላዊትም ማርያም የዮሳም እናት ማርያም ወዴት እንዳኖሩት ይመለከቱ ነበር።

⁴⁶And he bought a linen cloth, and taking him down, wound him in the linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb which had been hewn out of a rock; and he rolled a stone against the door of the tomb.

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