Kuboshwa kwaJesu
(Mat. 26:47-56; Mak. 14:43-50; Luk. 22:47-53)
1 Jesu watsi kube acedze kuthandaza, wahamba kanye nebafundzi bakhe, bewelela ngesheya kwemfudlana lokwakutsiwa yiKhidroni. Bekunengadze langena kuyo Jesu kanye nebafundzi bakhe. 2Judasi, lowamtsengisa, naye bekayati leyo ndzawo. Phela Jesu abevamise kuhlanganela khona nebafundzi bakhe. 3 Ngako-ke Judasi wavele wacondza khona kuleyo ndzawo, ahamba nesicuku lesikhulu semasotja, nalabanye bogadzi belithempeli lababetfunywe baphristi labakhulu bakanye nebaFarisi. Babehlome tikhali, baphetse emalambu netidlwane. 4 Ngako Jesu, akwati konkhe lokwakutamehlela, wasondzela embikwabo watsi: “Nifuna bani?”
5Bamphendvula batsi: “Jesu waseNazaretha.”
Jesu watsi kubo: “Ngimi.”
Judasi, lowamtsengisa, bekeme nabo. 6Kwatsi Jesu nakabaphendvula atsi: “Ngimi,” bakhwesha nyova, baze bawela phansi. 7Jesu waphindza wababuta watsi: “Kantsi nifuna bani?”
Bamphendvula batsi: “Jesu waseNazaretha.”
8Jesu watsi kubo: “Ingani nginitjelile ngatsi ngimi. Ngako-ke nangabe nifuna mine, bayekeleni bahambe laba!”
9 Loku wakusho kuze kutewugcwaliseka livi labesalikhulumile kuYise lekutsi: “Babe, kute ngisho namunye lowalahleka kulaba lowangipha bona.”
10 Simoni Phetro abenenkemba, wayihoshula wagalela ngayo esigcilini semPhristi Lomkhulu, wasihhumbula indlebe yangesekudla. Libito lalesigcili kwakunguMalkhusi. 11 Jesu watsi kuPhetro: “Buyisela inkemba yakho esikhwameni sayo! Kantsi angisete ngayinatsa yini lendzebe yelusizi lengiyinikwe nguBabe?”
Jesu embikwa-Anasi
(Mat. 26:57-58; Mak. 14:53-54; Luk. 22:54)
12 Ngako-ke lesicumbi semasotja nendvuna yawo kanye nabogadzi bemaJuda bambamba Jesu bambopha.
13Kwekucala bammikisa ku-Anasi, ngobe abenguyisetala waKhayafase, labengumPhristi Lomkhulu kulowo mnyaka. 14 Bekunguye, yena loKhayafase, lowayala emaJuda kutsi bekufanele kufe umuntfu munye, afele bonkhe bantfu.
Phetro uphika Jesu
(Mat. 26:69-70; Mak. 14:66-68; Luk. 22:55-57)
15Simoni Phetro nalomunye umfundzi babeloku balandzela Jesu. UmPhristi Lomkhulu abemati kahle lona lomunye umfundzi. Ngako-ke wangena naJesu ngekhatsi esibuyeni sendlu yemPhristi Lomkhulu. 16Phetro yena bekeme ngephandle nje eyeme umnyango. Ngako lomfundzi lomunye labatiwa ngumPhristi Lomkhulu, wancandzeka waphuma wakhuluma nentfombatana leyayingasemnyango ingugonsa, yase iyamngenisa-ke naPhetro. 17 Lentfombatana yabuta Phetro yatsi: “Awusiye yini lomunye webafundzi balomuntfu?”
Phetro watsi: “Cha, angisiye.”
18Kwakumakhata, ngako-ke tisebenti kanye nabogadzi bese babase umlilo wemalahle bawutungeletile botsa, naPhetro wema kanye nabo, wotsa umlilo.
UmPhristi Lomkhulu ubuta Jesu
(Mat. 26:59-66; Mak. 14:55-64; Luk. 22:66-71)
19UmPhristi Lomkhulu wabuta Jesu ngebafundzi bakhe nangetimfundziso takhe. 20 Jesu wamphendvula watsi: “Ngikhulume ebaleni ngikhuluma nemhlaba wonkhe. Ngato tonkhe tikhatsi bengifundzisa emasinagogeni nasethempelini, lapho kubutsana khona onkhe emaJuda. Angizange sengikhulume lutfo emasitseleni. 21Manje, ungibutelani-ke? Buta kulabantfu bebangiva. Ubabute kutsi bengibatjela kutsini, ngobe bayakwati konkhe loku bengibafundzisa kona.”
22Asakhuluma loko Jesu, lomunye wabogadzi labesedvutane naye wammukula ngemphama watsi: “Uphendvula umPhristi Lomkhulu nawusho nje?”
23Jesu wamphendvula watsi: “Nangikhulume kabi, shano phela kutsi ngitsiteni; kodvwa nangikhulume liciniso, ungishayelani?”
24Ngako Anasi watfumela Jesu asaboshiwe kuKhayafase, umPhristi Lomkhulu.
Phetro uchubeka nekuphika Jesu
(Mat. 26:71-75; Mak. 14:69-72; Luk. 22:58-62)
25 Phetro abeseloku emile lapho otsa umlilo, base batsi kuye: “Awusiye yini lomunye webalandzeli balomuntfu?”
Kodvwa Phetro wakuphika loko watsi: “Cha, angisiye.”
26Lomunye wetigcili temPhristi Lomkhulu, labesinini salona lowahhunjulwa nguPhetro indlebe, wambuta watsi: “Angikubonanga yini unaye engadzeni?”
27Waphindza waphika Phetro. Masinyane nje lichudze lakhala.
Jesu embikwaPhilatu
(Mat. 27:1-2,11-14; Mak. 15:1-5; Luk. 23:1-5)
28 Base bayamtsatsa Jesu ekhaya laKhayafase bamyisa ekwehlulelweni, kwakungusekuseni ngeluvivi. EmaJuda wona akazange angene kuleyondlu, ngobe abentela kutigcina angangcoli ngekwemtsetfo, kuze phela alungele kudla Sidlo seliPhasika. 29Ngako-ke Philatu waphuma, waya kubo, wababuta watsi: “Cala lini lalentile lomuntfu?”
30Bamphendvula batsi: “Kube lomuntfu abete licala, ngabe asikamletsi lapha kuwe.”
31 Philatu watsi kubo: “Mtsatseni nine niteke lelo cala lakhe ngekwemtsetfo wenu!” EmaJuda aphendvula atsi: “Site lilungelo lekubulala umuntfu.” 32 Loku kwenteka kuze kutewugcwaliseka livi laJesu lalisho, nakachaza indlela labetawufa ngayo.
33 Philatu wancandzeka wabuyela endlini, wabuta Jesu watsi: “Ye Jesu, wena ungiyo yini inkhosi yemaJuda?”
34Jesu wamphendvula watsi: “Ngekwakho lombuzo usuka kuwe yini, nome kukhona labakutjele kona ngami?”
35Philatu waphendvula watsi: “NgingumJuda yini mine? Sive sakini nebaphristi bakini labakhulu labakuletse la kimi. Wenteni wena?”
36 Jesu wamphendvula watsi: “Umbuso wami awusiwo wakulelive. Kube bewuwakulelive, ngabe balandzeli bami bangilwele, kuze ngingetiwuniketwa kumaJuda. Kepha noko umbuso wami awusiwo wakulelive.”
37 Ngako Philatu watsi: “Ngempela ungiyo yini inkhosi?”
Jesu waphendvula watsi: “Uyasho wena kutsi ngiyiNkhosi. Mine ngatalelwa kona loko, futsi ngetela kona loko kulomhlaba kuze ngifakazele liciniso. Lowo loweliciniso uyaliva livi lami.”
38Philatu wabuta watsi: “Yini-ke liciniso?”
Jesu ugwetjwa intsambo
(Mat. 27:15-31; Mak. 15:6-20; Luk. 23:13-25)
Emvakwekusho njalo Philatu waphindze waphuma, waya kumaJuda, watsi kuwo: “Angilitfoli licala kulomuntfu. 39 Kodvwa ngelisiko lenu kufanele nginikhululele siboshwa sinye njalo ngeliPhasika. Nginganikhululela yini inkhosi yemaJuda?”
40Bamphendvula bamemeta batsi: “Hhayi lowo! Sifuna Bharaba!”
Bharaba abesigelekece.
