Yohane 19:16-21

¹⁶Kuya Pilato kamlapfa Yesu, kaweng'a wakamuwambe. Kuya asikali wamsola Yesu.

¹⁷Naye kalawa aku kaughala msalaba wake, kughenda hanu hakemighwe Bombwe lya Litwi. Kwa Chihebulaniya hokemighwa Goligota.

¹⁸Baho wamuwamba Yesu mna msalaba, pfipfila tsawawawamba iwanu weli, yumwe ubali ungi na yungi ubali ungi, Yesu haghatighati.

¹⁹Pilato kandika chitango kachika mna msalaba. Kandika, “Yesu wa Natsareti, Imndewa wa Wayahudi.”

²⁰Wayahudi wengi wachisoma chitango chino, kwaapfila hanu hayawambighwe Yesu kukala habehi na ghumji, na chitango chandikighwa kwa Chihebulaniya, Chilatini na Chigiriki.

²¹Iwatambika wakulu wamlongela Pilato, “Leka kwandika ‘Imndewa wa Wayahudi,’ ila imunu yuno tsakalonga yeye ka imndewa wa Wayahudi.”
