⁴Pilato kalawa hanze mwanza uyagwe, na kuwalongela waja iwanhu, “Loleni, nowalavileni hanze munhu ino m'vitange kamba sonile mbuli yoyose ya kumtagusila.”

⁵Avo Yesu kalawa hanze yavalile kanzu da zambalau na mkungo wa mizomola mditwi. Pilato kawalongela, “Loleni, munhu mwenyego ino hano!”

⁶Wakulu wa wakulu wa nhambiko na iwemilizi wa Ing'anda ya Mulungu viwamonile, waguta, wolonga, “Muwambe mumsalaba! Muwambe mumsalaba!” Pilato kawalongela, “Nie sonile mbuli ya kumtagusila, avo msoleni mwemwe mkamuwambe mumsalaba.”

⁷Wayahudi wamulongela, “Tweye tuna lagizo, na sama ya lagizo hijo kolondigwa yadanganhike, kwavija kailonga heyo ka Mwana wa Mulungu.”

⁸Pilato viyahulike gano, kagendelela kona bwembwe.
