1 T he whole company of them rose up and brought him before Pilate.

Katahi ka whakatika to ratou huihui katoa, a arahina ana ia ki a Pirato.

2 T hey began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man perverting the nation, forbidding paying taxes to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ, a king.”

Na ka anga ratou ka whakapa he ki a ia, ka mea, Kua mau i a matou tenei tangata e kukume ke ana i te iwi, e mea ana kia kaua e hoatu te takoha ki a Hiha, e ki ana he kingi ia, ko te Karaiti.

3 P ilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered him, “So you say.”

Na ka ui a Pirato ki a ia, ka mea, Ko koe ranei te kingi o nga Hurai? Ka whakahoki ia ki a ia, ka mea, Kua korerotia mai na e koe.

4 P ilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”

Na ko te meatanga a Pirato ki nga tohunga nui, ki nga mano, kahore tetahi he o tenei tangata i mau i ahau.

5 B ut they insisted, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place.”

A nui atu ta ratou tohe, ka mea, E whakatutehu ana ia i te iwi, e whakaako ana puta noa i Huria, timata mai i Kariri a tae noa mai ki konei.

6 B ut when Pilate heard Galilee mentioned, he asked if the man was a Galilean.

I te rongonga ia o Pirato ki Kariri, ka ui, No Kariri ranei tenei tangata?

7 W hen he found out that he was in Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem during those days.

A, i tona mohiotanga no te rangatiratanga ia o Herora, ka tonoa ia ki a Herora, i Hiruharama hoki ia i aua ra.

8 N ow when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad, for he had wanted to see him for a long time, because he had heard many things about him. He hoped to see some miracle done by him.

Na, i te kitenga o Herora i a Ihu, nui rawa tona hari; kua roa ia e hiahia ana kia kite i a ia, he maha hoki nga mea i rangona e ia mona; na ka tumanako ia kia kite i tetahi merekara e meinga ana e ia.

9 H e questioned him with many words, but he gave no answers.

Na he maha nga kupu i ui ai ia ki a ia; heoi kahore kau he kupu i whakahokia e ia.

10 T he chief priests and the scribes stood, vehemently accusing him.

Na tu ana nga tohunga nui me nga karaipi, kaha rawa hoki ta ratou whakapa he ki a ia.

11 H erod with his soldiers humiliated him and mocked him. Dressing him in luxurious clothing, they sent him back to Pilate.

Na ka whakakorekore a Herora ratou ko ana hoia ki a ia, ka taunu, a ka oti ia te whakakakahu ki te kahu whakapaipai, ka whakahokia atu ki a Pirato.

12 H erod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before that they were enemies with each other.

I taua rangi ano ka houhia te rongo a Pirato raua ko Herora: i mua hoki e mauahara ana ki a raua.

13 P ilate called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,

Na ka karangatia e Pirato nga tohunga nui, nga rangatira, me te iwi ano,

14 a nd said to them, “You brought this man to me as one that perverts the people, and see, I have examined him before you, and found no basis for a charge against this man concerning those things of which you accuse him.

Ka mea ia ki a ratou, kua kawea mai nei e koutou tenei tangata ki ahau, me te ki ano kei te kukume ke ia i te iwi: a ka oti nei ia te uiui e ahau i to koutou aroaro, na, kihai i mau i ahau tetahi he o tenei tangata i roto i nga mea i whakapangia nei e koutou ki a ia.

15 N either has Herod, for I sent you to him, and see, nothing worthy of death has been done by him.

A kihai ano hoki a Herora: nana ia i whakahoki mai ki a tatou, na, kahore ana mahi e tika ai kia mate ia.

16 I will therefore chastise him and release him.”

Na, me whiu ia e ahau, ka tuku atu ai.

17 N ow he had to release one prisoner to them at the feast.

Kua takoto hoki te tikanga kia tukua atu tetahi ki a ratou i te hakari.

18 B ut they all cried out together, saying, “Away with this man! Release to us Barabbas!”—

Na ka panui ratou ki te karanga, ka mea, Whakamatea tenei, ko Parapa te tuku mai ki a matou:

19 o ne who was thrown into prison for a certain revolt in the city, and for murder.

Ko tenei hoki i maka ki te whare herehere mo te nananga i nana ai ia i roto i te pa, mo te patu tangata.

20 T hen Pilate spoke to them again, wanting to release Jesus,

Na ka mea atu ano a Pirato, he mea hoki nana kia tukua a Ihu;

21 b ut they shouted, saying, “Crucify! Crucify him!”

Heoi hamama ana ratou, mea ana, Ripekatia ia, ripekatia.

22 H e said to them the third time, “Why? What evil has this man done? I have found no capital crime in him. I will therefore chastise him and release him.”

Ka mea ano ia ki a ratou, ko te toru o nga meatanga, he aha ra te kino i meinga e tenei tangata? Kahore ano i mau i ahau tetahi he ona e mate ai: maku ia e whiu, ka tuku atu ai.

23 B ut they were urgent with loud voices, asking that he might be crucified. Their voices and the voices of the chief priests prevailed.

Otira nui atu o ratou reo ki te tohe, e tono ana kia ripekatia ia. A riro rawa i ta o ratou reo.

24 P ilate decreed that what they asked for should be done.

Na ka whakaotia e Pirato kia waiho i ta ratou i tono ai.

25 H e released him who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, for whom they asked, but he delivered Jesus up to their will.

Na ka tukua ano ki a ratou te tangata i maka ki te whare herehere mo te nananga, mo te patu tangata, ta ratou hoki i tono ai; ko Ihu ia i tukua ki ta ratou i pai ai.

26 W hen they led him away, they grabbed one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, and laid on him the cross, to carry it after Jesus.

A i a ratou e arahi ana i a ia, ka mau ratou ki tetahi tangata o Hairini, ki a Haimona, e haere mai ana i nga whenua, a utaina ana ki a ia te ripeka, kia amohia i muri i a Ihu.

27 A great multitude of the people followed him, including women who also mourned and lamented him.

Na he nui te huihuinga o te iwi i aru i a ia, me nga wahine hoki e tangi ana, e aue ana ki a ia.

28 B ut Jesus, turning to them, said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, don’t weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

Na ka tahuri a Ihu ki a ratou, ka mea, E nga tamahine o Hiruharama, kaua e tangi ki ahau, engari me tangi ki a koutou ano, ki a koutou tamariki.

29 F or behold, the days are coming in which they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren, the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.’

Tera hoki e puta nga ra e mea ai ratou, Koa tonu nga pakoko, me nga kopu kahore i whanau, me nga u kahore i ngotea.

30 T hen they will begin to tell the mountains, ‘Fall on us!’ and tell the hills, ‘Cover us.’

Ko reira timata ai ratou te mea ki nga maunga, Horo iho ki runga ki a matou: ki nga pukepuke hoki, Hipokina matou.

31 F or if they do these things in the green tree, what will be done in the dry?”

Ki te meinga hoki enei mea e ratou i te rakau e kaimata ana, ko te aha e meatia i te rakau ka maroke?

32 T here were also others, two criminals, led with him to be put to death.

Na tera atu etahi tokorua, he hunga mahi kino, e arahina ngatahitia ana me ia kia whakamatea.

33 W hen they came to the place that is called The Skull, they crucified him there with the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left.

A ka tae ratou ki te wahi e kiia nei ko te Angaanga, ka ripekatia ia ki reira, me aua kaimahi kino, kotahi ki matau, kotahi ki maui.

34 J esus said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.” Dividing his garments among them, they cast lots.

Na ka mea a Ihu, E Pa, houhia te rongo ki a ratou: kahore hoki ratou e mohio ki ta ratou e mea nei. A wehewehea ana ona kakahu e ratou he mea maka ki te rota.

35 T he people stood watching. The rulers with them also scoffed at him, saying, “He saved others. Let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, his chosen one!”

Me te tu ano te iwi matakitaki ai. Ko nga rangatira hoki ka tawai ki a ia, ka mea, Ko era atu i whakaorangia e ia; mana ano ia e whakaora, ki te mea ia ko te Karaiti a te Atua, ko tana i whiriwhiri ai.

36 T he soldiers also mocked him, coming to him and offering him vinegar,

Ko nga hoia etahi i taunu ki a ia, ka haere mai me te kawe mai he winika ki a ia,

37 a nd saying, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!”

Ka mea, Ki te mea ko koe te Kingi o nga Hurai, whakaora i a koe.

38 A n inscription was also written over him in letters of Greek, Latin, and Hebrew: “THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.”

A tera te mea i tuhituhia ki runga ake i a ia, KO TE KINGI TENEI O NGA HURAI.

39 O ne of the criminals who was hanged insulted him, saying, “If you are the Christ, save yourself and us!”

Na ko tetahi o nga kaimahi kino i whakairia ra i kohukohu ki a ia, i mea, Ki te mea ko te Karaiti koe, whakaorangia koe, maua hoki.

40 B ut the other answered, and rebuking him said, “Don’t you even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?

Na ka whakahoki tetahi, ka riri ki a ia, ka mea, E kore ranei koe e wehi ki te Atua, kei tenei mate tahi nei hoki koe?

41 A nd we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward for our deeds, but this man has done nothing wrong.”

Ka tika raia to taua; ka whiwhi hoki taua ki nga mea e tika ana mo a taua hanga: ko tenei ia kahore ana mahi he.

42 H e said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when you come into your Kingdom.”

Na ko tana meatanga ki a Ihu, E te Ariki, kia mahara koe ki ahau ina haere mai koe i runga i tou rangatiratanga.

43 J esus said to him, “Assuredly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”

Ano ra ko Ihu ki a ia, he pono taku e mea nei ki a koe, Ko aianei koe noho ai ki ahau ki Pararaiha.

44 I t was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour.

Na kua tata ki te ono o nga haora, a ka pouri a runga o te whenua katoa, tae noa ki te iwa o nga haora.

45 T he sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two.

I pouri hoki te ra, a i wahia te arai o te whare tapu i waenganui pu.

46 J esus, crying with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” Having said this, he breathed his last.

A nui atu te reo o Ihu ki te karanga; i mea ia, E Pa, tenei toku wairua ka tukua atu nei ki ou ringa: ka mutu enei kupu, ka hemo ia.

47 W hen the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, “Certainly this was a righteous man.”

A, i te kitenga o te keneturio i taua mea, ka whakakororia ia i te Atua, ka mea, he pono he tangata tika tenei.

48 A ll the multitudes that came together to see this, when they saw the things that were done, returned home beating their breasts.

Me te hunga katoa hoki i huihui mai ki te matakitaki, i to ratou kitenga i aua mea i meatia ra, ka patuki i o ratou uma, a hoki ana.

49 A ll his acquaintances, and the women who followed with him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching these things.

A ko te hunga katoa i mohio ki a ia, ratou ko nga wahine i aru mai i a ia i Kariri, i tu mai i tawhiti, matakitaki ai ki enei mea.

50 B ehold, a man named Joseph, who was a member of the council, a good and righteous man

Na tera tetahi tangata, ko Hohepa te ingoa, he tangata noho runanga; he tangata pai, he tangata tika:

51 ( he had not consented to their counsel and deed), from Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, who was also waiting for God’s Kingdom:

Kihai ia i whakaae ki to ratou whakaaro, ki ta ratou mahi; no Arimatia ia, no tetahi pa o nga Hurai: a he tangata ia e tatari ana ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua.

52 t his man went to Pilate, and asked for Jesus’ body.

I haere ia ki a Pirato, a tonoa ana e ia te tinana o Ihu.

53 H e took it down, and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that was cut in stone, where no one had ever been laid.

Na, ka tangohia iho e ia taua tinana, a takaia ana ki te rinena, ka waiho ki te rua i haua ki roto ki te kohatu, kahore hoki i takoto noa tetahi tangata ki reira.

54 I t was the day of the Preparation, and the Sabbath was drawing near.

Na ko te ra takanga hakari ia, a meake puao te hapati.

55 T he women, who had come with him out of Galilee, followed after, and saw the tomb, and how his body was laid.

I aru ano nga wahine i haere tahi mai nei me ia i Kariri, a kite ana i te urupa, i te whakatakotoranga ano o tona tinana.

56 T hey returned, and prepared spices and ointments. On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.

Na ka hoki ratou, ka mahi i nga mea kakara, i nga hinu. A noho ana i te hapati, he whakaaro hoki ki te ture.
