Amaze gufatwa, Yesu yahuye n’ibigeragezo bitatu. Icya mbere, Yesu yajyanwe mu nama y’abayobozi b’abayuda. Yari arimo aregwa ibyaha byinshi yakoreye Imana, ariko nta bahamya babiri bashoboraga guhuza ku kirego kimwe. Nyuma Kayafa, umutambyi mukuru, aramubaza ati, “ni wowe Kristo?” Yesu arahamya ati, “ Yego ndi we, kandi muzabona umwana w’umuntu aje guca imanza”. Abayobozi b’abayuda bararakara basaba ko Yesu yakwicwa kubera ngo atutse Imana. Ubukurikira Yesu ahagarara imbere ya Herode. Uyu mwami mubi yifuza kubona Yesu. Akora “ubufindo”, ariko Yesu aguma acecetse nuko Herode amwohereza ahandi. Maze nyuma Yesu ajyanwa kwa Ponsiyo Pirato, umutegetsi w’Abaroma, aregwa ubugambanyi. Yesu yarakubiswekandi baramukwena cyane. Ikamba ry’amahwa barimushyira mu mutwe. Pirato yifuje kurekura Yesu, ariko uyu mupfapfa w’umuyobozi yemera gukurikiza ibyifuzo bya rubanda. Maze akaraba intoki ze maze atanga Yesu ngo abambwe.
After His arrest, Jesus faced three trials. First Jesus was led to the Sanhedrin – the Jewish council of leaders. He was accused of many crimes against God, but no two witnesses could agree on an accusation. Finally Caiaphas, the high priest, asked him straightly, “Are you the Christ?” Jesus confessed, “Yes I am, and you will see the Son of Man coming in judgment”. The leaders were furious and demanded that He be executed for blasphemy. Next Jesus stood before King Herod. This perverted king wanted to see Jesus perform some “magic trick”, but Jesus remained silent and Herod sent Him away. Finally, Jesus was brought before Pontius Pilate, the Roman Governor, and accused of treason. Jesus was cruelly whipped and mocked. A crown of thorns was forced on His head. Pilate wanted to release Jesus, but this weak-willed governor caved in to the demands of the mob. He washed his hands and delivered Jesus to be crucified.
