イエスの裁判、十字架の死、埋葬
15 朝早く、祭司長と長老、それにユダヤ教の教師たちからなる最高議会の全議員が、次の手はずをあれこれ協議した結果、イエスを縛ったまま、ローマ総督ピラトに引き渡すことに決まりました。
2 「おまえはユダヤ人の王なのか」というピラトの尋問に、イエスは、「そのとおりです」とだけお答えになりました。 3 そこで祭司長たちは、あることないことをあげつらい、イエスを訴えました。 4 これを聞いたピラトは、「どうして何も言わないのか。あんなにまで訴えているのに平気なのか」と尋ねました。 5 しかしイエスは、ひとこともお答えになりません。これにはピラトも驚き、あきれてしまいました。
6 さてピラトは、毎年、過越の祭りには、人々の願うままにユダヤ人の囚人を一人、釈放してやることにしていました。 7 たまたまこの時、暴動で人殺しをし、投獄されていた暴徒たちの中に、バラバという男がいました。 8 群衆はピラトの前に押し寄せ、例年どおり囚人を釈放するよう迫りました。 9 そこで、ピラトは尋ねました。「『ユダヤ人の王』を釈放してほしいのか。おまえたちが赦してほしいのはこの男か。」 10 ピラトがこう言ったのは、イエスが捕らえられたのは、彼の人気をねたむ祭司長たちのでっち上げによるとにらんだからです。
11 ところが、祭司長たちも抜かりはありません。たくみに群衆をけしかけ、イエスではなくバラバの釈放を要求させたのです。
12 「バラバは釈放するとして、おまえたちが王と呼んでいるあの男はいったいどうするつもりか。」
13 「十字架につけろ!」
14 「なぜだ。あの男が、いったいどんな悪事を働いたというのだ。」それでも群衆はおさまりません。なおも大声で、「十字架につけろ!」と叫び続けます。 15 ピラトは群衆のきげんをそこねたくなかったので、結局、バラバを釈放することにしました。イエスのほうは、先端に鉛のついたむちで打たせてから、十字架につけるために引き渡しました。
16 ローマ兵たちはイエスを総督官邸内の兵営に引き立てて行き、全部隊を召集しました。 17 その目の前で、イエスに紫色のガウンを着せ、長く鋭いとげのあるいばらで冠を作り、頭にかぶせると、 18 「おい、ユダヤ人の王よ」とはやしたて、皮肉たっぷりに敬礼しました。 19 それから、頭を葦の棒でたたいたり、つばをかけたり、ひれ伏して拝むまねをしたりして、からかいました。 20 こうしてさんざん笑いものにしたあげく、紫色のガウンをはぎとってもとの着物を着せ、いよいよ十字架につけるために引き出しました。 21 途中、ちょうど田舎から来合わせていたクレネ人のシモンという男に、むりやりイエスの十字架を背負わせました〔シモンは、アレキサンデルとルポスの父〕。
22 兵士たちは、イエスをゴルゴタ〔どくろ〕と呼ばれる場所に連れて行きました。 23 そこで、没薬を混ぜたぶどう酒(痛みを和らげる飲み物)を飲ませようとしましたが、イエスはお断りになりました。 24 兵士たちは、イエスを十字架につけてしまうと、さっそくくじを引き、その着物を分け合いました。 25 イエスが十字架につけられたのは、朝の九時ごろでした。
26 イエスの頭上には罪状書きが掲げられ、それには「ユダヤ人の王」と書いてありました。
27 その日、二人の強盗も、イエスといっしょに十字架につけられました。二人の十字架はイエスの両側に立てられました。 28 こうして、「彼は罪人の一人に数えられた」(イザヤ53・12)という聖書のことばどおりになったのです。
29-30 刑場のそばを通りかかった人たちは、大げさな身ぶりで、「神殿を打ちこわして三日で建て直すんだってなあ。そんなに偉いなら、たった今、十字架から降りて来いよ。自分を救ったらどうなんだ!」と、口ぎたなくイエスをののしりました。 31 祭司長やユダヤ人の指導者たちも、同じようにあざけりました。「人を救っても、自分は救えないというわけか。」 32 「キリスト様。イスラエルの王様。十字架から降りてみろ。そうしたら信じてやろうじゃないか。」イエスの両側で十字架につけられていた強盗までが、悪口をあびせました。
33 さて正午になったころ、あたりが急に暗くなり、一面の闇におおわれました。それが三時間も続きました。 34 三時ごろイエスは大声で、「エリ、エリ、レマ、サバクタニ」と叫ばれました。それは、「わが神、わが神。どうしてわたしをお見捨てになったのですか」という意味です。 35 近くでその声を聞いた人の中には、預言者エリヤを呼んでいるのだと思った者もいました。 36 その時、一人の男がさっと駆け寄り、海綿に酸いぶどう酒を含ませると、それを葦の棒につけて差し出しました。そして、「さあ、エリヤがこの男を降ろしに来るかどうか、とくと見ようじゃないか」と言いました。 37 イエスはもう一度大声で叫ぶと、息を引き取られました。
38 するとどうでしょう。神殿の幕が、上から下まで真っ二つに裂けたのです。 39 十字架のそばに立っていたローマ軍の士官は、イエスの死の有様を見て、「この方はほんとうに神の子だった」と言いました。
40 数人の婦人が、遠くから恐る恐るこの様子をながめていました。それは、マグダラのマリヤ、小ヤコブとヨセの母マリヤ、サロメをはじめ、何人かの婦人たちで、 41 イエスがガリラヤにおられた時、いつも仕えていた人たちでした。ほかにもたくさんの婦人が、イエスといっしょにエルサレムまで来ていました。
42-43 以上の出来事はすべて、安息日の前日に起こったことです。その日の夕方、一人の人がピラトのところへ行き、勇気を奮い起こして、イエスの遺体を引き取りたいと申し出ました。その人はアリマタヤ出身のヨセフといい、ユダヤの最高議会の有力な議員で、神の国が来ることを熱心に待ち望んでいました。
44 ピラトは、イエスがもう死んでしまったとは信じられず、ローマ軍の士官を呼びつけ、問いただしました。 45 士官が死を確認したので、それならよいと遺体の引き取りを許可しました。
46 ヨセフは亜麻布を買って来ると、イエスの遺体を十字架から取り降ろし、布でくるんで、岩をくり抜いた墓の中に納め、入口は石を転がしてふさぎました。 47 マグダラのマリヤとヨセの母マリヤとは、イエスが葬られるのをじっと見守っていました。
Mark 15
English Standard Version
Jesus Delivered to Pilate
15 (A)And as soon as it was morning, the chief priests (B)held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council. And (C)they bound Jesus and (D)led him away and (E)delivered him over to (F)Pilate. 2 (G)And Pilate asked him, (H)“Are you the King of the Jews?” And he answered him, (I)“You have said so.” 3 And the chief priests accused him of many things. 4 And Pilate again asked him, (J)“Have you no answer to make? See how many charges they bring against you.” 5 But Jesus (K)made no further answer, so that Pilate was amazed.
Pilate Delivers Jesus to Be Crucified
6 (L)Now at the feast he used to release for them one prisoner for whom they asked. 7 And among the rebels in prison, who had (M)committed murder (N)in the insurrection, there was a man called Barabbas. 8 And the crowd came up and began to ask Pilate to do as he usually did for them. 9 And he answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?” 10 For he perceived that (O)it was out of envy that the chief priests had delivered him up. 11 But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release for them Barabbas instead. 12 And Pilate again said to them, “Then what shall I do with (P)the man you call the King of the Jews?” 13 And they cried out again, “Crucify him.” 14 And Pilate said to them, “Why? (Q)What evil has he done?” But they shouted all the more, “Crucify him.” 15 So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, released for them Barabbas, and having (R)scourged[a] Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.
Jesus Is Mocked
16 (S)And the soldiers led him away inside (T)the palace (that is, (U)the governor's headquarters),[b] and they called together the whole (V)battalion.[c] 17 And they clothed him in (W)a purple cloak, and twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on him. 18 And they began to salute him, (X)“Hail, King of the Jews!” 19 And they were striking his head with a reed and (Y)spitting on him and (Z)kneeling down in homage to him. 20 And when they had (AA)mocked him, they stripped him of (AB)the purple cloak and put his own clothes on him. And they (AC)led him out to crucify him.
The Crucifixion
21 (AD)And they compelled a passerby, Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to carry his cross. 22 (AE)And they brought him to the place called Golgotha (which means Place of a Skull). 23 And they offered him wine mixed with (AF)myrrh, but he did not take it. 24 And they crucified him and (AG)divided his garments among them, casting lots for them, to decide what each should take. 25 And (AH)it was the third hour[d] when they crucified him. 26 And the inscription of the charge against him read, (AI)“The King of the Jews.” 27 And with him they crucified two (AJ)robbers, (AK)one on his right and one on his left.[e] 29 And (AL)those who passed by derided him, (AM)wagging their heads and saying, (AN)“Aha! (AO)You who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, 30 save yourself, and come down from the cross!” 31 So also the chief priests with the scribes mocked him to one another, saying, (AP)“He saved others; (AQ)he cannot save himself. 32 Let (AR)the Christ, (AS)the King of Israel, come down now from the cross that we may (AT)see and believe.” (AU)Those who were crucified with him also reviled him.
The Death of Jesus
33 And when the sixth hour[f] had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.[g] 34 And at the ninth hour Jesus (AV)cried with a loud voice, (AW)“Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” 35 And some of the bystanders hearing it said, “Behold, he is calling Elijah.” 36 And someone ran and filled a sponge with (AX)sour wine, put it on a reed (AY)and gave it to him to drink, saying, “Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to take him down.” 37 And Jesus (AZ)uttered a loud cry and (BA)breathed his last. 38 And (BB)the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. 39 (BC)And when the centurion, who stood facing him, saw that in this way he[h] breathed his last, he said, (BD)“Truly this man was the Son[i] of God!”
40 There were also (BE)women looking on (BF)from a distance, among whom were (BG)Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and (BH)Salome. 41 When he was in Galilee, they followed him and (BI)ministered to him, and there were also many other women who (BJ)came up with him to Jerusalem.
Jesus Is Buried
42 (BK)And when evening had come, since it was (BL)the day of Preparation, that is, the day before the Sabbath, 43 Joseph of Arimathea, (BM)a respected member of the council, who (BN)was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, took courage and went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 44 Pilate was surprised to hear that he should have already died.[j] And summoning (BO)the centurion, he asked him whether he was already dead. 45 And when he learned from (BP)the centurion that he was dead, he granted the corpse to Joseph. 46 And Joseph[k] bought (BQ)a linen shroud, and taking him down, wrapped him in the linen shroud and (BR)laid him in a tomb (BS)that had been cut out of the rock. And he rolled (BT)a stone against the entrance of the tomb. 47 (BU)Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw where he was laid.

King James Version
15 And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.
2 And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said unto them, Thou sayest it.
3 And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.
4 And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against thee.
5 But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.
6 Now at that feast he released unto them one prisoner, whomsoever they desired.
7 And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.
8 And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto them.
9 But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews?
10 For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.
11 But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them.
12 And Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will ye then that I shall do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews?
13 And they cried out again, Crucify him.
14 Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.
15 And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.
16 And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and they call together the whole band.
17 And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head,
18 And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!
19 And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.
20 And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.
21 And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.
22 And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull.
23 And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not.
24 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.
25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.
26 And the superscription of his accusation was written over, The King Of The Jews.
27 And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.
28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors.
29 And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days,
30 Save thyself, and come down from the cross.
31 Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.
32 Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him.
33 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.
34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calleth Elias.
36 And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take him down.
37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.
38 And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.
39 And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.
40 There were also women looking on afar off: among whom 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 unto him;) and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem.
42 And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath,
43 Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus.
44 And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead.
45 And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.
46 And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre.
47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.
