¹Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the Passover, drew near.

¹Ary efa mby akaiky ny andro firavoravoana fihinanana ny mofo tsy misy masirasira, dia ilay andro atao hoe Paska.

²The chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death, for they feared the people.

²Ary ny lohan'ny mpisorona sy ny mpanora-dalàna nitady izay hamonoany an'i Jesosy; nefa natahotra ny olona izy.

³Satan entered into Judas, who was surnamed Iscariot, who was numbered with the twelve.

³Fa Satana niditra tao anatin'i Jodasy, ilay atao hoe Iskariota, anankiray tamin'ny roa ambin'ny folo lahy;

⁴He went away, and talked with the chief priests and captains about how he might deliver him to them.

⁴dia nankao amin'ny lohan'ny mpisorona sy ny lehiben'ny mpiambina izy ka niresaka taminy ny amin'izay hamadihany an'i Jesosy amin'ireo.

⁵They were glad, and agreed to give him money.

⁵Dia faly ireo ka nanaiky hanome vola azy.

⁶He consented, and sought an opportunity to deliver him to them in the absence of the multitude.

⁶Ary nanaiky izy ka nitady izay andro hahazoany hamadika Azy amin'ireo amin'ny tsy misy olona.

⁷The day of unleavened bread came, on which the Passover must be sacrificed.

⁷Ary tonga ny andro fihinanana ny mofo tsy misy masirasira, dia ilay tsy maintsy hamonoana ny Paska.

⁸He sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat.”

⁸Ary Jesosy naniraka an'i Petera sy Jaona ka nanao hoe: Mandehana, ka amboary ny Paska hohanintsika.

⁹They said to him, “Where do you want us to prepare?”

⁹Ary hoy ireo taminy: Aiza no tianao hanamboaranay azy?

¹⁰He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered into the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him into the house which he enters.

¹⁰Dia hoy Izy taminy: Indro, raha miditra ao an-tanàna ianareo, dia hisy lehilahy mitondra siny feno rano hifanena aminareo; manaraha azy ao amin'ny trano izay hidirany.

¹¹ Tell the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?”’

¹¹Dia lazao amin'ny tompon-trano hoe: Izao no lazain'ny Mpampianatra aminao: Aiza ny efi-trano hiarahako mihinana ny Paska amin'ny mpianatro?

¹² He will show you a large, furnished upper room. Make preparations there.”

¹²Ary izy hanoro anareo efi-trano malalaka ambony rihana, izay efa nasiana fipetrahana; any no amboary.

¹³They went, found things as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover.

¹³Dia nandeha izy ka nahita araka izay efa nolazainy taminy; dia namboatra ny Paska izy.

¹⁴When the hour had come, he sat down with the twelve apostles.

¹⁴Ary nony tonga ny fotoana, dia nipetraka hihinana Izy mbamin'ny Apostoly.

¹⁵He said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer,

¹⁵Ary hoy Izy taminy: Naniry koa raha naniry Aho hiara-mihinana ity Paska ity aminareo, dieny mbola tsy mijaly Aho.

¹⁶ for I tell you, I will no longer by any means eat of it until it is fulfilled in the Kingdom of God.”

¹⁶Fa lazaiko aminareo fa tsy mba hihinana izany intsony Aho ambara-pahatanterak'izany ao amin'ny fanjakan'Andriamanitra.

¹⁷He received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, “Take this, and share it among yourselves,

¹⁷Ary nandray kapoaka Izy, dia nisaotra ka nanao hoe: Raiso ity, ka zarao aminareo;

¹⁸ for I tell you, I will not drink at all again from the fruit of the vine, until the Kingdom of God comes.”

¹⁸fa lazaiko aminareo fa hatramin'izao dia tsy hisotro ny vokatry ny voaloboka intsony Aho mandra-pahatongan'ny fanjakan'Andriamanitra.

¹⁹He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and gave to them, saying, “This is my body which is given for you. Do this in memory of me.”

¹⁹Ary nandray mofo Izy, ary rehefa nisaotra, dia novakiny ka natolony azy sady nataony hoe : Ity no tenako izay omena ho anareo; izao no ataovinareo ho fahatsiarovana Ahy.

²⁰Likewise, he took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.

²⁰Ary araka izany koa ny kapoaka, rehefa vita ny sakafo, dia hoy Izy: Ity kapoaka ity no fanekena vaovao amin'ny rako, izay aidina ho anareo.

²¹ But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table.

²¹Fa, indro, ny tànan'izay mamadika Ahy dia eto amiko eto ambonin'ny latabatra.

²² The Son of Man indeed goes, as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is betrayed!”

²²Fa ny Zanak'olona mandeha tokoa, araka izay nanendrena; nefa lozan'izay lehilahy hahazoana manolotra Azy!

²³They began to question among themselves, which of them it was who would do this thing.

²³Ary ireo nifanontany izay anankiray eo aminy hahefa izany.

²⁴There arose also a contention among them, which of them was considered to be greatest.

²⁴Ary nisy koa fifandirana tao aminy ny amin'izay anankiray aminy hatao lehibe.

²⁵He said to them, “The kings of the nations lord it over them, and those who have authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’

²⁵Ary hoy Jesosy taminy: Ny mpanjakan'ny jentilisa mampanompo azy ary izay manapaka azy no atao hoe mpanao soa.

²⁶ But not so with you. But one who is the greater among you, let him become as the younger, and one who is governing, as one who serves.

²⁶Fa tsy mba toy izany ianareo; fa izay lehibe aminareo dia aoka ho toy ny zandry; ary izay manapaka dia aoka ho toy ny mpanompo.

²⁷ For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Isn’t it he who sits at the table? But I am in the midst of you as one who serves.

²⁷Fa iza moa no lehibe, izay mipetraka mihinana va, sa izay manompo? Tsy izay mipetraka mihinana va? Fa Izaho dia eo aminareo toy izay manompo.

²⁸ But you are those who have continued with me in my trials.

²⁸Ary ianareo no naharitra nanaraka Ahy tamin'ny fakam-panahy nihatra tamiko;

²⁹ I confer on you a kingdom, even as my Father conferred on me,

²⁹koa Izaho dia manendry fanjakana ho anareo tahaka ny nanendren'ny Raiko ho Ahy,

³⁰ that you may eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom. You will sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”

³⁰mba hihinana sy hisotro eo amin'ny latabatro amin'ny fanjakako ianareo sady hipetraka ambony seza fiandrianana hitsara ny firenen'isiraely roa ambin'ny folo,

³¹The Lord said, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have you, that he might sift you as wheat,

³¹Ary hoy ny Tompo: Ry Simona, ry Simona, indro, Satana efa nilofo nitady anareo hokororohiny toy ny vary.

³² but I prayed for you, that your faith wouldn’t fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers The word for “brothers” here may be also correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” .”

³²Nefa Izaho nangataka ho anao, mba tsy ho levona ny finoanao; ary rehefa mibebaka ianao, dia ampaherezo ireo rahalahinao.

³³He said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!”

³³Ary hoy izy taminy: Tompoko, vonona hanaraka Anao aho, na ho ao an-tranomaizina, na dia ho amin'ny fahafatesana aza.

³⁴He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”

³⁴Fa hoy Jesosy: Lazaiko aminao, ry Petera: Raha tsy mbola misy akoho maneno anio, dia handà intelo ho tsy mahalala Ahy ianao.

³⁵He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, and wallet, and shoes, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”

³⁵Ary hoy koa Izy taminy: Raha nirahiko tsy nitondra kitapom-bola na kitapom-batsy na kapa ianareo, moa nisy zavatra nahory anareo va? Dia hoy ireo: Tsy nisy.

³⁶Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.

³⁶Fa hoy Izy taminy: Fa amin'izao kosa, izay manana kitapom-bola dia aoka hitondra azy; ary toy izany koa ny kitapom-batsy; ary izay tsy manan-tsabatra kosa, dia aoka hivarotra ny lambany izy ka hividy.

³⁷ For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: ‘He was counted with transgressors.’ Isaiah 53:12 For that which concerns me has an end.”

³⁷Fa lazaiko aminareo: Tsy maintsy ho tanteraka amiko izao voasoratra izao hoe: Ary Izy natao ho isan'ny mpanota (Isa. 53. 12); fa efa ho tanteraka ny amiko.

³⁸They said, “Lord, behold, here are two swords.” He said to them, “That is enough.”

³⁸Ary hoy ireo: Tompoko, indreto sabatra roa. Dia hoy Jesosy taminy: Aoka izay.

³⁹He came out, and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him.

³⁹Ary nivoaka Jesosy, koa araka ny fanaony dia nankao an-tendrombohitra Oliva Izy, ary ny mpianatra koa nanaraka Azy.

⁴⁰When he was at the place, he said to them, “Pray that you don’t enter into temptation.”

⁴⁰Ary raha vao tonga tao amin'izany tany izany, dia hoy Izy taminy: Mivavaha mba tsy hidiranareo amin'ny fakam-panahy.

⁴¹He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and he knelt down and prayed,

⁴¹Ary Izy nihataka taminy tokony ho indray mitora-bato, dia nandohalika ka nivavaka hoe:

⁴²saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”

⁴²Raiko ô, raha sitrakao, dia esory amiko ity kapoaka ity; nefa aoka tsy ny sitrapoko anie no hatao, fa ny Anao.

⁴³An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.

⁴³Ary nisy anjely avy tany an-danitra niseho teo aminy ka nampahery Azy.

⁴⁴Being in agony he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.

⁴⁴Ary fadiranovana Izy, ka dia nivavaka mafimafy kokoa; ary ny dininy dia tahaka ny rà nipotrapotraka tamin'ny tany.

⁴⁵When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples, and found them sleeping because of grief,

⁴⁵Ary nony nitsangana avy nivavaka Izy, dia nankeo amin'ny mpianatra ka nahita azy matorin'alahelo.

⁴⁶and said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”

⁴⁶Dia hoy Izy taminy: Nahoana no dia matory ianareo? Mitsangàna, ka mivavaha, mba tsy hidiranareo amin'ny fakam-panahy.

⁴⁷While he was still speaking, behold, a multitude, and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Jesus to kiss him.

⁴⁷Ary raha mbola niteny Jesosy, indreo, tamy ny vahoaka, ary ilay atao hoe Jodasy, isan'ny roa ambin'ny folo lahy, dia nandeha teo alohany ka nanatona an'i Jesosy hanoroka Azy.

⁴⁸But Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”

⁴⁸Fa hoy Jesosy taminy: Ry Jodasy, fanorohana va no amadihanao ny Zanak'olona?

⁴⁹When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

⁴⁹Ary izay teo aminy, raha nahita izay efa hanjo, dia nanao hoe: Tompoko, hamely amin'ny sabatra va izahay?

⁵⁰A certain one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

⁵⁰Ary ny anankiray teo aminy dia nikapa ny mpanompon'ny mpisoronabe ka nahafaka ny sofiny ankavanana.

⁵¹But Jesus answered, “Let me at least do this” —and he touched his ear, and healed him.

⁵¹Fa Jesosy namaly ka nanao hoe: Aoka ihany na dia izao aza. Dia nanendry ny sofiny Izy ka nahasitrana azy.

⁵²Jesus said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

⁵²Ary hoy Jesosy tamin'ny lohan'ny mpisorona sy ny lehiben'ny mpiambina ny tempoly ary ny loholona izay tonga hisambotra Azy: Mivoaka mitondra sabatra sy langilangy toy ny hisambotra jiolahy va ianareo?

⁵³ When I was with you in the temple daily, you didn’t stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”

⁵³Raha teo aminareo isan'andro teo an-kianjan'ny tempoly Aho, dia tsy naninji-tanana tamiko ianareo; fa izao no fotoanareo sy herin'ny maizina.

⁵⁴They seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed from a distance.

⁵⁴Ary izy ireo nisambotra an'i Jesosy, dia nitondra Azy ho ao an-tranon'ny mpisoronabe. Ary Petera nanaraka teny lavidavitra eny.

⁵⁵When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard, and had sat down together, Peter sat among them.

⁵⁵Ary raha namelona afo teo an-kianja ireo ka nipetraka, dia mba nipetraka teo aminy koa Petera.

⁵⁶A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him.”

⁵⁶Ary ny ankizivavy anankiray, nony nahita azy nipetraka teo anilan'ny afo, dia nandinika azy ka nanao hoe: Ity koa nomba Azy.

⁵⁷He denied Jesus, saying, “Woman, I don’t know him.”

⁵⁷Fa izy nandà ka nanao hoe: Ravehivavy, tsy fantatro Izy.

⁵⁸After a little while someone else saw him, and said, “You also are one of them!” But Peter answered, “Man, I am not!”

⁵⁸Ary vetivety foana rehefa afaka izany, dia nisy olona hafa koa nahita azy ka nanao hoe: Hianao koa mba naman'ireny. Fa Petera nanao hoe: Ralehilahy, tsy mba namany aho.

⁵⁹After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean!”

⁵⁹Ary rehefa afaka tokony ho ora iray, dia nisy anankiray koa nitompo teny ka nanao hoe: Ilehio nomba Azy marina tokoa, fa Galiliana izy.

⁶⁰But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

⁶⁰Fa hoy Petera: Ralehilahy, tsy fantatro izay lazainao. Ary niaraka tamin'izay, raha mbola niteny izy, dia nisy akoho naneno.

⁶¹The Lord turned, and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him, “Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.”

⁶¹Ary ny Tompo nitodika, dia nijery an'i Petera. Ary Petera nahatsiaro ilay tenin'ny Tompo nolazainy taminy hoe: Raha tsy mbola misy akoho maneno anio, dia handà Ahy intelo ianao.

⁶²He went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶²Ary nivoaka Petera, dia nitomany mafy indrindra.

⁶³The men who held Jesus mocked him and beat him.

⁶³Ary ny lehilahy izay nitana an'i Jesosy dia nanao Azy ho fihomehezana sady nikapoka Azy.

⁶⁴Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?”

⁶⁴Ary rehefa nanampi-maso Azy izy, dia nanontany Azy hoe: Maminania; iza moa no namely Anao?

⁶⁵They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.

⁶⁵Ary niteny ratsy izy nilaza zavatra maro hafa koa nanaratsiany Azy.

⁶⁶As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people was gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying,

⁶⁶Ary raha vao nazava ny andro, niangona ny loholona, dia ny lohan'ny mpisorona sy ny mpanora-dalàna, ka nitondra an'i Jesosy ho eo amin'ny Synedriona, dia nanao hoe:

⁶⁷“If you are the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe,

⁶⁷Raha Hianao no Kristy, dia lazao aminay. Fa hoy Izy taminy: Na dia hilaza aminareo aza Aho, dia tsy hino ianareo.

⁶⁸ and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go.

⁶⁸Ary na dia hanontany aza Aho, dia tsy hamaly akory ianareo.

⁶⁹ From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”

⁶⁹Fa hatramin'izao ny Zanak'olona dia hipetraka eo an-tanana ankavanan'ny herin'Andriamanitra.

⁷⁰They all said, “Are you then the Son of God?” He said to them, “You say it, because I am.”

⁷⁰Dia hoy izy rehetra: Zanak'Andriamanitra va ary Hianao? Ary hoy Izy taminy: Voalazanareo fa Izaho no Izy.Ary hoy ireo: Ka inona indray no ilantsika vavolombelona? fa ny tenantsika no efa nandre tamin'ny vavany.

⁷¹They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”

⁷¹Ary hoy ireo: Ka inona indray no ilantsika vavolombelona? fa ny tenantsika no efa nandre tamin'ny vavany.
