¹Naizvozvo ipapo Pirato wakatora Jesu, akamurova netyava.

¹Antunchi O Pilate lia le Jesusos, ai kerdia te maren les le bichosa.

²Zvino mauto akaruka korona yemhinzwa akaisa pamusoro wake, ndokumupfekedza nguvo dzine ruvara rwehute.

²Le ketani kerde andal kanrhe iek korona, ai tsode la pe lesko shero, ai dine pe leste iek rhocha brazbi.

³Vakati: Hekanhi, Mambo wevaJudha! Ndokumurova nembama.

³Porme pashile pasha leste, ai phende, "Droboitu, Amperato le Zhidogongo!" ai denas les palmi po mui.

⁴Naizvozvo Pirato akabudazve panze, ndokuti kwavari: Tarirai, ndinomubudisira kwamuri, kuti muzive kuti handiwani mhosva maari.

⁴O Pilate pale ankliste avri, ai phendia le Zhidovonge, "Eta, anav les tumenge avri, saxke te zhanen ke chi arakhav ande leste chi iek nasulimos.

⁵Naizvozvo Jesu wakabuda panze, akapfeka korona yemhinzwa, nenguvo ine ruvara rwehute. Pirato ndokuti kwavari: Tarirai munhu uyu!

⁵Antunchi O Jesus anklisto avri la koronasa kai sas kanrhale, ai le rasha kai sas brazbi, ai o Pilate phendia lenge, "Eta, o manush!"

⁶Naizvozvo vapristi vakuru nemapurisa pavakamuona, vakadanidzira vachiti: Roverera pamuchinjikwa, roverera pamuchinjikwa! Pirato akati kwavari: Mutorei imwi, muroverere pamuchinjikwa; nekuti ini handiwani mhosva kwaari.

⁶Numa kana le bare le rashange ai zhandari dikhle les, tsipinas, phenenas, "Karfon les, karfon les." O Pilate phendia lenge, "Len les tume, ai karfon les: ke me chi arakhav chi iek nasulimos ande leste."

⁷VaJudha vakamupindura vakati: Isu tine murairo, uye nemurairo wedu unofanira kufa, nekuti wakazviita Mwanakomana waMwari.

⁷Le Zhiduvuria phende leske, "Amen si ame iek zakono, ai pala amaro zakono wo trobul te merel; ke wo kerdia anda peste O Shav le Devlesko."

⁸Naizvozvo Pirato paakanzwa shoko iro, wakanyanya kutya.

⁸Kana o Pilate ashundia kodia, wo mai zurales darailo;

⁹Akapindazve mumba memutungamiriri, ndokuti kuna Jesu: Unobvepi iwe? Asi Jesu haana kumupa mhinduro.

⁹ai pale gelo ando kher la krisako, ai phushlia katar O Jesus, "Katar san tu?" Numa O Jesus chi phendia kanch.

¹⁰Pirato akati kwaari: Hautauri neni here? Hauzivi here kuti ndine simba rekukuroverera pamuchinjikwa uye ndine simba rekukusunungura?

¹⁰O Pilate phendia leske, "Mansa chi des duma? Pate chi zhanes ke man si ma e putiera te karfon tu po trushul, ai ke si ma vi e putiera te mekav tu?"

¹¹Jesu akapindura akati: Haungatongovi nesimba pamusoro pangu, dai usina kuripiwa kubva kumusoro; naizvozvo unondikumikidza kwauri une chivi chikuru.

¹¹O Jesus phendia, "Tut nas te avel tu chi iek putiera pe mande, te na avilino tu dini putiera opral: anda kudia kodo kai andia ma tute kerel iek mai baro bezex.

¹²Kubva ipapo Pirato akatsvaka kumusunungura. Asi vaJudha vakadanidzira, vachiti: Kana mukasunungura uyu, hamusi shamwari yaKesari; umwe neumwe unozviita mambo, unopikisana naKesari.

¹²Pala kodia o Pilate mangelas te mekel les, numa le Zhiduvuria tsipinas, phenenas, "Te mekesa les, tu chi san o vortako le Caesarosko: ke kon godi kerel anda peste amperato, wo kerel anda peste o duzhmano le Caesarosko.

¹³Naizvozvo Pirato anzwa shoko iri wakabudisa Jesu panze, akagara pachigaro chekutonga, panzvimbo inonzi Pakarongwa neMambwe, asi nechiHebheru Gabhata.

¹³O Pilate kana ashundia kodia, andia le Jesusos avri, ai beshlo tele po skamin la krisako po tsan kai bushol o Bax, ai Zhidovisko Gabbatha.

¹⁴Zvino raiva gadziriro repasika, uye raiva awa rinenge rechitanhatu; ndokuti kuvaJudha: Tarirai Mambo wenyu!

¹⁴Antunchi sas e vriama kai lasharenas O Dies O Baro le Zhidovongo, ai pashte mizmeri sas: O Pilate phendia le Zhidovonge, "Dikh, tumaro Amperato!"

¹⁵Asi vakadanidzira vachiti: Bvisai, bvisai, murovererei pamuchinjikwa! Pirato akati kwavari: Ndoroverera pamuchinjikwa mambo wenyu here? Vapristi vakuru vakapindura vachiti: Hatina mambo kunze kwaKesari.

¹⁵Numa won tsipinas, "Mudar les, Mudar les, Karfosar les po trushul." O Pilate phendia lenge, "Tume mangen ma te mudarav tumare amperatos?" Le bare rasha phenenas, "Amaro amperato si o Caesar."

¹⁶Naizvozvo ipapo akamukumikidza kwavari, kuti arovererwe pamuchinjikwa. Zvino vakatora Jesu vakamutinha.

¹⁶Antunchi dia les lende te karfon les. Won line le Jesus, ai ingerde les.

¹⁷Zvino wakatakura muchinjikwa wake akabuda akaenda kunzvimbo yainzi yeDehenya, ichinzi nechiHebheru Gorogota;

¹⁷O Jesus ingerelas pesko trushul, ai areslo po tsan kai bushol shero, ai Zhidovisko mothonas Golgotha:

¹⁸pevakamuroverera pamuchinjikwa nevamwe vaviri naye, parutivi neparutivi, naJesu pakati.

¹⁸ai kotse karfosarde les, ai dui aver manush sas lesa, iek pal dui riga, ai O Jesus mashkaral.

¹⁹Pirato ndokunyorawo chiziviso akaisa pamuchinjikwa; chakange chakanyorwa kuti: JESU MUNAZARETA MAMBO WEVAJUDHA.

¹⁹O Pilate ramosardiape vari soste, ai thodia po trushul, ai kodo ramomos motholas, "O JESUS ANDAI NAZARETH, O AMPERATO LE ZHIDOVONGO."

²⁰Naizvozvo vazhinji vevaJudha vakaverenga chiziviso ichi; nekuti nzvimbo pakange pakarovererwa Jesu pamuchinjikwa yaiva pedo neguta; uye pakange pakanyorwa nechiHebheru, nechiRoma, nechiGiriki.

²⁰But Zhiduvuria jinde so sas ramome: ke o than kai O Jesus sas karfome pasha foro sas: ai ramome sas Zhidovisko, Grechisko ai Latinesko.

²¹Naizvozvo vapristi vakuru vevaJudha vakati kuna Pirato: Musanyora muchiti: Mambo wevaJudha; asi kuti uyu wakati: Ndiri mambo wevaJudha.

²¹Le bare le rashange phende le Pilatoske, "Na ramosar, O Amperato Le Zhidovongo; numa ramosar ke wo phendia, 'Me sim O Amperato le Zhidovongo.'"

²²Pirato akapindura akati: Zvandanyora, ndanyora.

²²O Pilate phendia, "So me ramosardem, trobul te beshel ramome."

²³Naizvozvo mauto akati aroverera Jesu pamuchinjikwa, akatora nguvo dzake, akaita migove mina, kumuuto umwe neumwe mugove; nenguvo yepasi; asi shati iyi yakange isina musono, yakange yakarukwa yose kubva kumusoro.

²³Le ketani, kana karfosarde le Jesusos, line leske tsalia, ai kerde shtar kotora anda lende, iek kotor swakona ketanake; ai line vi leski raxami, kai nas suvdi, numa anda iek kotor sas de opral zhi tele.

²⁴Naizvozvo vakataurirana vachiti: Ngatirege kuibvarura, asi tiikandire mijenya, kuti ichava yaani; kuti rugwaro ruzadziswe rwunoti: Vakagovana nguvo dzangu pakati pavo, vakakandawo mujenya pamusoro pechokufuka changu. Naizvozvo mauto akaita zvinhu izvi.

²⁴Ai phende mashkar pende, "Na shinas la, numa thodepe te dikhen kon niril la," lela la: saxke te kerdiol so phendiasas E Vorba le Devleski, kai phenel, "Won hulade murhe tsalia mashkar pende, ai thodepe te dikhen kon niril murhi raxami." So kerde le ketani.

²⁵Zvino pamuchinjikwa waJesu pakange pamire mai vake, nemunin'ina wamai vake, Maria mukadzi waKiropasi, naMaria Magidharini.

²⁵Pasha trushul le Jesusosko sas leski dei, ai e phei leska daki, e Maria e rhomni le Cleophaski, ai e Maria Magdalene.

²⁶Naizvozvo Jesu wakati achiona mai vake, nemudzidzi waaida amirepo, akati kuna mai vake: Mukadzi, tarira mwanakomana wako.

²⁶Kana O Jesus dikhlia peska da, ai pasha late o disiplo, kai sas leske drago, phenel peska dake, "Zhuvlio, Eta, cho shav!"

²⁷Shure kweizvozvo wakati kumudzidzi: Tarira mai vako. Zvino kubva paawa iro mudzidzi wakavatora akavaisa kumba kwake.

²⁷Ai porme phendia le disiploske, "Eta, chi dei! ai antunchi kodia disiplo lia la ka lesko kher te beshel leste.

²⁸Shure kwaizvozvi, Jesu achiziva kuti zvinhu zvose zvatopedzwa, kuti rugwaro rwuzadziswe, akati: Ndine nyota.

²⁸Pala kodia, O Jesus kai zhanelas ke vunzhe sa gata sas, saxke te kerdiol so phendia E Vorba le Devleski, wo phendia, "Trushalo sim."

²⁹Zvino pakange pakagadzikwa hari izere nevhiniga; zvino vakazadza chipanje nevhiniga vakaisa parutanda rwehisopi*, vakaisa kumuromo wake.

²⁹Ai sas kotse iek piri chikaki pherdo shut. Le ketani bolde ieke ponzha pherdi shut, ai kana phangle la pe iek kotor khash kai bushol hisop, tsode la ka lesko wush.

³⁰Naizvozvo Jesu agamuchira vhiniga, wakati: Zvapedzwa! Akakotamisa musoro, akapa Mweya wake.

³⁰Kana o shut areslo pel le Jesusoske wush, wo phendia "Sa gata"; ai kana meklia o shero tele, mulo.

³¹Naizvozvo vaJudha nekuti rakange riri gadziriro, kuti mitumbi isagara pamuchinjikwa nesabata (nekuti zuva resabata iro raiva guru), vakakumbira Pirato kuti makumbo avo avhuniwe, uye vabviswe.

³¹Kodia sas iek dies mai anglal sar o Savato, ai le Zhiduvuria chi mangenas le staturia te beshen pel trushula Savatone, ke kodo Savato sas iek baro dies. Le Zhiduvuria mangenas katar o Pilate te phagen le punrhe kodolenge kai sas karfome, ai te len le pal trushula.

³²Naizvozvo mauto akauya, akavhuna makumbo ewokutanga, neeumwe wakange arovererwa pamuchinjikwa pamwe naye;

³²Antunchi le ketani avile, ai phagle le punrhe le pervoneske, porme le kolavreske kai sas karfome lesa.

³³asi vasvika kuna Jesu, pavakaona kuti watofa, havana kuvhuna makumbo ake;

³³Numa kana pashile pasha Jesus, ai dikhle ke vunzhe mulo sas, chi phagle leske punrhe.

³⁴asi umwe wemauto wakabaya rutivi rwake nepfumo, pakarepo kukabuda ropa nemvura.

³⁴Numa iek andal ketani kerdia gropa ande lesko prashav la sabiasa, ai strazo anklisto rat avri ai pai.

³⁵Uye iye wakaona wakapupura, uye kupupura kwake ichokwadi; uye iye unoziva kuti unoreva chokwadzi, kuti imwi mutende.

³⁵O manush kai dikhlia le mothol pa kadala dieli kai kerdile, ai so mothol o chachimos si; wo zhanel ke mothol o chachimos, saxke te pachan tume.

³⁶Nekuti zvinhu izvi zvakaitwa kuti rugwaro rwuzadziswe runoti: Fupa rake haringavhunwi.

³⁶Kadala dieli kerdile, saxke te kerdiol so phendia E Vorba le Devleski, chi iek kokola anda leske chi avela phaglo.

³⁷Uyezve rumwe rugwaro rwunoti: Vachamutarira wavakabvovora.

³⁷Ai ande averik E Vorba le Devleski mai phenel, "Won dikhena kodoles kai xiviarde."

³⁸Shure kweizvozvi Josefa weArimatia, ari mudzidzi waJesu, asi pachivande nekutya vaJudha, wakakumbira kuna Pirato kuti abvise mutumbi waJesu; Zvino Pirato akamutendera. Naizvozvo akauya akabvisa mutumbi waJesu.

³⁸Pala kodia o Joseph andai Arimathea, kai sas ek disiplo le Jesusosko, numa chordanes ke daralas katar le Zhiduvuria, manglia katar o Pilate te sai lel o stato le Jesusosko: ai o Pilate phendia leske ke sai. Wo avilo ai lia o stato le Jesusosko.

³⁹Kwakauyawo Nikodhimo, wakauya pakutanga kuna Jesu usiku, akatakura musanganiswa wemura* nearosi* mapaundi anenge zana.

³⁹O Nicodemus avilo, kai mai anglal avilo sas e riate ka Jesus, ai andia pashte trenda kili Mirrh ai Aloes amime andek than.

⁴⁰Ipapo vakatora mutumbi waJesu, vakamuputira nemicheka yerineni nezvinonhuhwira, seyaiva tsika yevaJudha yekuviga.

⁴⁰Line o stato le Jesusosko, ai vuluisarde les andek vuzho poxtan, parno ai tsode andre aromat, ke kadia si o zakono le Zhidovongo te gropon.

⁴¹Zvino panzvimbo iyo paakarovererwa pamuchinjikwa pakange pane bindu, uye mubindu mune guva idzva, makange musina kumboradzikwa munhu.

⁴¹Ai sas iek sado pe kodo tsan kai sas O Jesus karfome; ai ande kodo sado sas iek nevo greposhevo, kai inker khonik nas thodino andre.

⁴²Naizvozvo vakaradzika Jesu ipapo nekuda kwegadziriro yevaJudha, nekuti guva rakange riri pedo.

⁴²Kotse thode le Jesusos ke sas O Dies O Baro le Zhidovongo mai anglal sar o Savato le Zhidovongo, ai ke o greposhevo sas pashe.
