1And immediately in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council. And they bound Jesus and led [Him] away and delivered [Him] to Pilate. 2And Pilate asked Him, Are you the king of the Jews? And answering He said to him, You say [it]. 3And the chief priests accused Him [of] many things, but He answered nothing. 4And Pilate asked Him again, saying, Do you answer nothing? Behold how many things they witness against you! 5But Jesus still answered nothing, so that Pilate marveled. 6And at [that] feast he released to them one prisoner, whomever they desired. 7And there was [one] named Barabbas, bound with the insurgents, who had committed murder in the insurrection. 8And the crowd, crying aloud, began to beg [him to do] as he had always done to them. 9But Pilate answered them, saying, Do you desire that I release to you the King of the Jews? 10For he knew that the chief priests had delivered Him because of envy. 11But the chief priests moved the people that he should rather release Barabbas to them. 12And Pilate answered and said again to them, What then do you desire that I should do [to him] whom you call the King of the Jews? 13And they cried out again, Crucify him! 14Then Pilate said to them, Why? What evil has he done? And they much more cried out, Crucify him! 15And deciding to do the easiest [to] the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas to them, and having scourged [Him], delivered up Jesus to be crucified. 16And the soldiers led Him away inside the court, which is [the] praetorium. And they called together all the cohort. 17And they clothed Him with purple and plaited a crown of thorns and put it around His [head]. 18And they began to salute Him, Hail, King of the Jews! 19And they struck Him on the head with a reed, and spat on Him, and placing the knees, [they] bowed to Him. 20And when they had mocked Him, they took the purple off Him and put His own clothes on Him and led Him out to crucify Him. 21And they made one who was passing by, Simon a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear His cross. 22And they brought Him to Golgotha Place (which translated is, Place of a Skull). 23And they gave Him wine mixed with myrrh to drink. But He did not take [it]. 24And when they had crucified Him, they divided His garments, casting lots on them, as, to what [each] should take. 25And it was [the] third hour, and they crucified Him. 26And the inscription of His accusation was written over [Him], THE KING OF THE JEWS. 27And with Him they crucified two thieves, the one off [the] right, and one off [the] left. 28And the Scripture was fulfilled which said, And he was numbered with [the] lawless. 29And those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads and saying, Aha! You [razing] the temple and building [it] in three days, 30save yourself and come down from the cross! 31And also the chief priests mocking, with the scribes, said to one another, He saved others but he cannot save himself. 32Let Christ the King of Israel now come down from the cross, so that we may see and believe. And they who were crucified with Him insulted Him. 33And [it] being [the] sixth hour, darkness came over all the land until the ninth hour. 34And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? (which being translated is, My God, My God, why did You forsake Me?) 35And hearing, some of those standing by said, Behold, he calls Elijah. 36And one ran and filled a sponge full of vinegar and put [it] on a reed and gave [it] to him to drink. [But they said], Let alone, let us see if Elijah comes to take him down. 37And letting out a loud voice, Jesus expired. 38And the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. 39And when the centurion, who stood across from him, saw that He cried out so, [and] expired, he said, Truly this man was Son of God. 40And also women were watching from a distance, among whom also was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less, and of Joses, and Salome, 41(who also, when He was in Galilee, followed Him and ministered to Him), and many [other] women who came up with Him to Jerusalem. 42And it, becoming evening already, since it was [the] Preparation, that is, [the] day before sabbath, 43Joseph of Arimathea, an honorable counsellor, who also waited for the kingdom of God, came and went in boldly to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 44And Pilate wondered if He were already dead. And calling the centurion, he asked him whether He had died already. 45And when he knew [it] from the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph. 46And he bought a linen cloth, and took Him down, and wrapped [Him] in the linen, and laid Him in a tomb which was cut out of a rock, and rolled a stone to the door of the tomb. 47And Mary Magdalene and Mary [the mother] of Joses saw where He was laid.
