Naamwi Yesu anyemuliwe nave ahoosiwe moopwaha mphimo, wiilipiserya wa Pilato wi amutaphule henaweeriha atokweene a anamukucho ni yaawo anaakhaviherya otoroka moonelo aya. Awo hanachuna wi echu vyakala yooceelihe okhwa wa Yesu. Awo annatitelela okhuwela: “Omuthomeye, omuthomeye [vamwirini]!” Pilato onnaakhula: “Mmukuse nyuwo ni mmuthomeye [vamwirini], wona wi miyo nkinaphwanya nthowa mwa yowo.”—Yohani 19:6.

Tahi wi Ayuta anamulekecha Pilato wi Yesu onaphwanela okhwa ntakhara mulacu wa epoliitika, vano hanka vooloca sa malapelo? Awo annakookela mulacu waakhumelenle vaavaa owo aathorihiweiye vamiithoni va nikhuuru no Sineetriyu wawi Yesu aahiruwana. Awo annaloca: “Hiyo nòkhalano nlamulo ni, wa nlamulo nenlo, owo onnaphwanela okhwa, wona wi òhisera Mwana a Muluku.” (Yohani 19:7) Ola mulacu muvyaani vamiithoni va Pilato.

Pilato onnakookela mu nipuro nawe nave onneererya ophwanya mukhalelo wa omutaphula mulopwana yoowo ohireera ohoosiwa navetho mwaara a Pilato ohireereiye ohaawa moolohani wa nthowa na yoowo. (Mateu 27:19) Hanka vooloca sa wootherya wuuwu ovyaani Ayuta anapakaaya wi mulipa oophariwa ola “Mwana a Muluku”? Pilato oosuwela wi Yesu onarweela o Kalileya. (Luka 23:5-7) Naamwi hiiha owo onnamukoha Yesu: “Wa wowi?” (Yohani 19:9) Pilato akhweya onachuna osuwela waakhanle wi Yesu ookhala wirimu nave waakhanle wi onarweela wa Muluku.

Pilato oomala wiiwa orweela wa Yesu wi owo mwene nave wi Omwene awe honapaka makupa a elapo. Ahichunaka oloca yeeyo omanleiye oloca woopaceryani, Yesu onnatitelela okhala oomaala. Yoolakelelaawe ya okhala oomaala ennamunanara Pilato yoowo ori awiirumiha, nave mu esara onnaloca ni Yesu: “Honakakhula? Honasuwela wi kòkhalano owerya wa wotaphula ni owerya wa wothomeya [vamwirini]?”—Yohani 19:10.

Pahiru Yesu oni: “Weyo hiwakakhanleno owerya ni miyano, wahivahiwe osulu. Tiva yowo okivelènle wa weyano t’otempe otxheka.” (Yohani 19:11) Enooneya wi vaavaa Yesu aalonceiye “yowo okivelènle wa weyano,” tahi wi aamuupuwela Yutasi Iskariyoti woona wi Kayafa ni yaawo yaalampe vamoha ni yoowo aakhalanotho nthowa. Mwawiihiiha masu a Yesu anataphulela wi awo aakhalano yoocheka etokweene ompwaha Pilato.

Atikhiniheyaka ni meecelo a Yesu ni masu awe, nave oopopiheyaka ni masu awi orwenle wirimu, Pilato onneererya omutaphula. Nto Ayuta annaruuha mukhalelo mukina yoowo onamoopopiha Pilato. Awo annaloca: “Wamutaphula, hiwatanne ni Sésar, wona wi yole onisera mwene onanvanya Sésar.”—Yohani 19:12.

Mulamuleli onnamuruuha wanawiili Yesu vaate, nave onnamukiraathiha va mpaco woothoriha, ni onnaaleela achu: “Mwene anyu owo!” Ayuta hanakookela muculi. Awo annakhuwela: “Akhwe! Akhwe! omuthomeye [vamwirini].” Pilato onnaakoha: “Kimuthomeye mwene anyu?” Mu ilukuluku sincipale Ayuta annahooseya ni olamulelo wo Roma; naamwi hiiha asitokweene a anamukucho anneemereya vanlakani: “Hiyo hinano mwene mukina omuhiya Sésar!”—Yohani 19:14, 15.

Ahiweryaka ohipaka yoochuna yoonyesererya ya muloko, Pilato onnamveleela Yesu mmatani mwaya wi emwiiphe. Anakhoco annamurula yoowara yooxeerya yanwarinhaaya, nave annanwariha malaya awe. Vaavaa anamukerihaaya  weiwo anayaaya omwiiphawo, annamuteesiha mwiri.

Vano ola woosiiselo wa nihiku Naneethanu 14 a Nisani. Yesu hiichunwe ovinyerya woosiiselo wa nihiku Naneesese nave oohooseya ni makacamiho mancipale. Vaavaa oniilipiseryeiye oteexa mwiri, ikuru sa sawe sinnamala. Mwawiihiiha anakhoco annamukhinyererya mulipa oovira, Simoni onarweela o Sirene o Afrika wi ateese mwiri wi akerihe nipuro anayaaya omuthomeyavo Yesu. Achu ancipale annamuchara, akina anniimana vachirima nthowa na othanana nave akina anniikhupanyerya wa yeeyo eneereya.

Yesu onnaloca ni athiyana oothanana: “Anamwane o Yerusalemu muhikinlele miyo; mwisinlele toko nyuwano ni aninyu! Txhiri anamurwa mahiku eneraya elotxiwe: òrèriwa t’athiyana ahinayara, ahitonko orupala ni omwamwiha mwana! Vanonto anampatxerya olotxa ni miyako: munuwele!, nave ni matxhumutxa: munikhunele! Yerakano hiha ni ekhukulu ekithi, eni yereye ti seni ni ekhukulu yawuma?”—Luka 23:28-31.

Yesu onaloca nloko na Ayuta. Nlo nri ntoko ekhukulu enahaawela wuuma yeeyo nlelo eri ekithi, nthowa nawi Yesu nlelo ori vaava, nave aakhalavo Ayuta anamweemererya. Elukuluku Yesu oneereiye akhwe nave arummwa epake makupa a nloko nivyaani noomunepani, nloko na Ayuta nnahaala wuuma omunepani, hiiha ntoko ekhukulu yawuuma. Onahaala okhalavo winla otokotoko vaavaa anakhoco o Roma eneeraaya ewanihe emweemelelaka Muluku wi etolose nloko!
