Bhakamwiibhohya omweenda gwe eraangi ye ezambaraau. 3 Bhakabha bharamugyaku, bharamukeerya bharabhuga, “Kasiinga rugabho, ee omutemi wa Abhayahudi!” Eno bhakumutema eziihi.

4 Pirato akahuruka igutu kweeki, akabhabhuurira abhakaangati bha Abhayahudi bharya, “Mwiitegeerere, ndamureeta igutu kweemwe omuutu wuno, okubha mumenye kubha nitakurora ekiina kya amasemo kyokyoosi kweewe.” 5 Ambe, niho Yeesu akahuruka igutu eno yiibhohiri orusaangarya rwa amahwa no omweenda gwe ezambaraau. Ambe, Pirato akagaamba mwaasi, “Rora, omuutu omweene ni wuyo.”

6 Hano abhakuru bha abhaseengeri na abhasirikare bhe eriiseengerero bhaamuruuzi Yeesu, bhakakora ekituri bhakubhuga, “Mumubhaambe kumusaraba, mumubhaambe kumusaraba!”

Ambe, Pirato akabhabhuurira, “Mumugege emwe abheene mugye mumubhaambe kumusaraba, kwo okubha enye nikyaari kubhona isarya ryoryoosi kweewe.”

7 Abhakaangati bha Abhayahudi bhakamukyoora, “Etwe tunagyo emigiro. Kuriingʼaana ne emigiro giyo, areenderwa okwiitwa, kwe ekigirirye ariigaamba kubha ni Mwaana wa Taatabhugya.”[a]

8 Hano Pirato yiigwiiri amangʼana gayo, akoobhoha kukiraho bhukongʼu. 9 Ambe, akasikira kweeki munyuumba, akamubhuurya Yeesu, “Awe orwiiri hayi?” Nawe Yeesu ataamukyooriri ryoryoosi. 10 Ambe, Pirato akamubhuurira, “Kwaki otakunikyoora? Mbe, otamenyiri kubha nino obhunagya bhwo okukutazura, kweeki bhwo okukutemerera kumusaraba?”

11 Yeesu akamukyoora Pirato, “Otiingabheeri no obhunagya bhwobhwoosi iguru waane eraabhe otiingaheerwe na Taatabhugya. Kweego omuutu wuno anituuriri mumabhoko gaazo ane ebhibhi bhikuru bhukongʼu kukira ebhibhi bhyaazo.”

12 Ambe, hano Pirato yiigwiiri gayo, akasakya kukomya enzira yo okumutazura Yeesu, nawe Abhakaangati bha Abhayahudi bhakakora ekituri kweeki bhakubhuga, “Eraabhe oraamutazure omuutu wuyo, ambe awe otari omusaani wa Kaisari.[b] Omuutu wowoosi wuno akwiikora kubha mutemi, aramuhakania Kaisari.”

13 Hano Pirato yiigwiiri amangʼana gayo, akamureeta Yeesu igutu, ewe akagya kwiikara kukituumbi kyo okutinira ekiina, ahagiro hano bhakabhirikira Orukuungu rwa Amagina. Kukigaambo kye Ekieburania bharabhuga Gabata. 14 Yaari ehikiri eriibhaga rya kasaasabha murusiku rwo okwiibhanura kwiiguru ye Enyaangi yo Okuhiita. Pirato akabhabhuurira Abhayahudi, “Rora, omutemi weenyu nguno!”

15 Ebho bhakakora ekituri bhakabhuga, “Mumwiite, mumwiite! Mumubhaambe kumusaraba!”

Pirato akabhabhuurya, “Mbe, mureenda nimubhaambe kumusaraba omutemi weenyu?”

Abhakuru bha abhaseengeri bhakamukyoora, “Etwe tutana omutemi owuundi nawe Kaisari!” 16 Ambe mubhuteero Pirato akaswaagya agegwe, atemererwe kumusaraba.

Ambe, abhasirikare bhakamugega Yeesu no okugya neewe. 17 Akagega omusaraba gwaaye, akatanura mumugye, akagya hagiro hano haabhirikiirwe Gorigota mukigaambo kye Ekieburania, obhugazuro bhwaku Ekihaanga kyo Omutwe. 18 Hano bhaahikiri harya, bhakamutemerera Yeesu kumusaraba. Hagiro haryaharya bhaari bhariho abhaatu abhaandi bhabhiri bhano bhakabhatemerera kumisaraba hamwe neewe, owumwe orubhaara rwo obhuryo no owuundi orubhaara rwo obhumosi.

19 Pirato akaswaagya kubha, gakaamwe amangʼana no okutuurwa kumusaraba gwa Yeesu, garabhuga, “Yeesu wa Nazareeti, Omutemi wa Abhayahudi.” 20 Amakaamo gayo gakaamirwe mukigaambo kye Ekieburania, Ekirooma ne Ekiyunaani. Abhayahudi bhaaru bhaari bharasoma amakaamo gayo, kwe ekigirirye ahagiro hano bhaamutemereeri Yeesu kumusaraba haari haguhi na Yerusaremu.

21 Ambe, abhakuru bha abhaseengeri bhakamubhuurira Pirato, “Otakaama, ‘Omutemi wa Abhayahudi,’ nawe kaama, ‘Omuutu wuno akabhuga kubha ewe ni omutemi wa Abhayahudi.’ ”

22 Pirato akabhakyoora, “Zeyi, gano nikaamiri gasaage egoego kyeego nikaamiri.”

23 Hano abhasirikare bhamutemereeri Yeesu kumusaraba, bhakagega emyeenda gyaaye, bhakatwaania magazo ane. Abhasirikare bhayo kwo owumwe, akagega eriigazo ryaaye. Kweeki, bhakagega eriigooti ryaaye. Eriigooti ryaari ryoogosirwe, bhakahokeerya ekitinika kimwe kyo omweenda, gutaari na mutumo naabhe gumwe. 24 Ambe, bhakiibhuurira, “Tutaraandura omweenda guno, nawe tuteme obhwiitoori, turore, gurabha gwa weewi.” Gayo gakakorwa ego, okubha gakuunaane gano gakaamirwe mu Amakaamo Amahoreeru kubha, “Bhakatwaana emyeenda gyaane, no okutema obhwiitoori iguru yo omweenda gwaane.”[c] Nigo gano bhaakoriri abhasirikare.

25 Ambe, bhaari bhariho abhakari abhaandi bhane bhano bhaari bhiimeereeri haguhi no omusaraba gwa Yeesu. Gati wa abhakari bhayo yaariho nina waabhu Yeesu, nina waabhu omusuuhu wa Yeesu, Mariamu omukari wa Kireopa, na Mariamu wa mumugye gwa Magidara. 26 Hano Yeesu yamuruuzi nina waabhu no omwaanamweega wuno akamuseega bhukongʼu yiimeereeri haguhi na nina waabhu, akabhuga, “Ee maayi, wuyo niwe omwaana waazo.” 27 Kweeki akamubhuurira omwaanamweega wurya, “Awe wuyo niwe nina weenyu.” Ambe, okurwa eriibhaga riryarirya omwaanamweega wuyo, akamugega nina waabhu Yeesu, akagya kwiikara neewe mumugye gwaaye.
