馬太福音 27
Chinese Standard Bible (Traditional)

提交彼拉多

27 到了清晨，所有的祭司長和民間的長老商議對付耶穌，為要處死他。 2 他們把耶穌捆起來帶走，交給總督彼拉多。

猶大自縊

3 這時候，那出賣耶穌的猶大看見耶穌被定了死罪，就後悔，去把三十個銀錢退還給祭司長們和長老們， 4 說：「我出賣了無辜人的血，我有罪了。」

但是他們說：「這與我們有什麼關係？你自己看著辦吧！」

5 猶大把銀錢丟在聖所裡就退了出來，去上吊自殺了。

6 祭司長們撿起銀錢，說：「這既然是血錢，不可以放到聖殿奉獻裡。」 7 他們商議之後，就用那錢買了陶匠的一塊地，做為外國人的墳地。 8 因此，那塊地就被稱為「血田」，直到今天。 9 這就應驗了藉著先知耶利米所說的話：

「他們拿了那三十個銀錢，就是那人被定的價錢，是以色列子民所定的； 10 他們用這錢買了陶匠的那塊地，正如主所指示我的。」[a]

在彼拉多面前受審

11 耶穌站在總督面前，總督問他，說：「你是猶太人的王嗎？」

耶穌說：「是你說的。」 12 可是當他被祭司長們和長老們控告的時候，什麼都不回應。

13 彼拉多對他說：「他們控告你這麼多的事，你沒有聽見嗎？」 14 耶穌連一句話也不回答，以致總督感到非常驚奇。

耶穌或巴拉巴

15 每逢這節日，總督會照慣例，給民眾釋放一個他們所要的囚犯。 16 那時有一個出名的囚犯，叫巴拉巴。 17 當民眾聚集的時候，彼拉多問他們：「你們要我給你們釋放哪一個呢？是巴拉巴，還是那稱為基督的耶穌？」 18 其實彼拉多知道他們是出於嫉妒才把耶穌交給他的。

19 彼拉多正坐在審判席上，他的妻子派人到他那裡說：「這義人的事，你什麼也不要管。要知道，我今天因他的緣故，在夢中受了很多苦。」

20 祭司長們和長老們挑唆眾人，叫他們要巴拉巴，而除滅耶穌。 21 總督問他們，說：「這兩個人中，你們要我給你們釋放哪一個呢？」

他們回答說：「巴拉巴！」

22 彼拉多對他們說：「那麼，我該怎麼處理這稱為基督的耶穌呢？」

他們都說：「把他釘上十字架！」

23 彼拉多說：「他到底做了什麼惡事呢？」

但他們卻越發喊叫說：「把他釘上十字架！」

24 彼拉多知道自己無濟於事，反而騷亂倒要發生，就拿水在眾人面前洗手，說：「流這人[b]的血，罪不在我，你們自己看著辦吧！」

25 全體民眾都回答說：「他的血歸在我們和我們兒女的身上！」 26 於是彼拉多給他們釋放了巴拉巴，然後將耶穌鞭打[c]了，把他交出去釘上十字架。

被士兵戲弄

27 那時，總督的士兵們把耶穌帶進總督府，召集了全隊士兵在他周圍。 28 他們剝下耶穌的衣服，給他套上一件深紅色的袍子， 29 用荊棘編了冠冕，戴在他的頭上，又把一根蘆葦放在他的右手裡，然後跪在他面前，戲弄他說：「萬歲，猶太人的王！」 30 接著向他吐唾沫，拿蘆葦打他的頭。 31 他們戲弄完了，就脫下他深紅色的袍子，給他穿上他自己的衣服，然後把他帶走，要釘上十字架。

被釘在罪犯之間

32 他們出去的時候，遇見一個名叫西門的古利奈人，就強迫這個人來背耶穌的十字架。 33 他們來到一個地方，叫「各各他」——這意思是「骷髏地」； 34 他們把膽汁調和的酒[d]給耶穌喝。耶穌嘗了，不肯喝。 35 他們把耶穌釘上十字架以後，抽籤分了他的衣服，[e] 36 然後坐在那裡看守著他， 37 又在他的頭上方，安了他的罪狀牌，上面寫道：「這是耶穌，猶太人的王。」

38 那時，有兩個強盜與耶穌一起被釘十字架，一個在右邊，一個在左邊。 39 那些路過的人辱罵耶穌，搖著頭， 40 說：「你這個要拆毀聖所、三天內又建起來的人哪，救救你自己吧！你如果是神的兒子，就從十字架上下來吧！」 41 同樣，祭司長們也與經文士們和長老們[f]一起嘲笑，說： 42 「他救了別人，卻不能救自己！他是[g]以色列的王！現在讓他從十字架上下來吧，這樣我們就信靠他！ 43 他依靠神，如果神喜悅他，就讓神現在救他吧！因為他說過『我是神的兒子。』」 44 與耶穌一起被釘十字架的強盜也同樣地責罵他。

耶穌之死

45 從中午十二點[h]起，黑暗籠罩了整個大地，一直到下午三點[i]。 46 下午三點左右，耶穌大聲呼叫：「以利，以利！拉瑪撒巴克達尼？[j]」——這意思是：「我的神，我的神！你為什麼離棄我？」[k]

47 站在那裡的一些人聽見了，就說：「這個人在呼喚以利亞呢！」

48 其中有一個人立刻跑去，拿了海綿蘸滿了酸酒，套在蘆葦上，要給他喝。 49 其他的人說：「等著吧，我們看以利亞會不會來救他。」

50 耶穌又大喊一聲，就交出了靈魂。 51 忽然，聖所裡的幔子從上到下裂成兩半。大地震動，岩石裂開。 52 墳墓也開了，許多已睡了的聖徒的身體復活了。 53 耶穌復活以後，他們從墳墓裡出來，進了聖城，向許多人顯現。

54 百夫長和那些與他一起看守耶穌的人，看見地震和所發生的事，就極其懼怕，說：「這個人真是神的兒子！」

55 那裡有許多婦女從遠處觀看，她們從加利利開始就跟隨耶穌，服事他。 56 其中有茉大拉的瑪麗亞、雅各和約西[l]的母親瑪麗亞，以及西庇太兒子們的母親。

安葬

57 到了傍晚，來了一個亞利馬太的財主，名叫約瑟，他自己也是耶穌的門徒。 58 他來到彼拉多面前，請求要耶穌的遺體，彼拉多就下令給他。 59 約瑟領了耶穌的遺體，用潔白的細麻布裹好， 60 安放在自己的新墓穴裡，這墓穴是他鑿在岩石裡的。他又滾來一塊大石頭，堵住墓穴口，就離開了。 61 茉大拉的瑪麗亞和另一個瑪麗亞在那裡，對著墳墓坐著。

嚴守墳墓

62 第二天，就是預備日的後一天，祭司長們和法利賽人在彼拉多那裡聚集， 63 說：「大人，我們想起當那個迷惑人的還活著時曾經說過：『在第三天我要復活。』 64 所以，請你下令嚴密看守那墳墓，一直到第三天，免得他的門徒們來[m]把他偷走，然後對民眾說他從死人中復活了，這樣，那最後的迷惑就要比先前的更厲害了。」

65 彼拉多對他們說：「你們有一隊衛兵，盡你們所能，嚴密看守吧！」 66 於是，他們帶著衛兵去，用印封上墓口的[n]石頭，嚴密看守墳墓。

Matej 27
Biblija: suvremeni hrvatski prijevod

Isus je predan Pilatu

(Mk 15,1; Lk 23,1-2; Iv 18,28-32)

27 Rano ujutro svi svećenički poglavari i narodni starješine dogovorili su se da ubiju Isusa. 2 Zatim su ga svezali, odveli i predali upravitelju Pilatu.

Judino samoubojstvo

(Dj 1,18-19)

3 Kad je Juda, koji ga je izdao, vidio da je Isus osuđen, požalio je zbog onoga što je učinio pa je svećeničkim poglavarima i starješinama vratio trideset srebrnjaka. 4 Rekao je: »Pogriješio sam što sam predao nevinog čovjeka, da ga ubiju.«

No oni su rekli: »Što se to nas tiče? To je tvoja stvar!«

5 Tada je Juda bacio srebrnjake u Hram, otišao i objesio se.

6 Svećenički su poglavari uzeli srebrnjake i rekli: »Protivi se našem Zakonu da ih stavimo u hramsku blagajnu jer su plaća za krv.« 7 Stoga su odlučili kupiti za njih lončarevu njivu da bude groblje za strance. 8 Njiva je do danas poznata kao Krvava njiva. 9 Tako se ispunilo što je rekao prorok Jeremija:

»Uzeli su trideset srebrnjaka. Toliko su Izraelci odlučili platiti za njegov život. 10 I tim su novcem kupili lončarevu njivu, kao što im je Gospodin naredio.«[a]

Pilat ispituje Isusa

(Mk 15,1-5; Lk 23,1-5; Iv 18,33-38)

11 U međuvremenu, Isusa su doveli pred upravitelja i on ga je upitao: »Jesi li ti kralj Židova?«

Isus je rekao: »Ti tako kažeš.«

12 A dok su ga svećenički poglavari i starješine optuživali, ništa nije odgovarao.

13 Tada ga je Pilat upitao: »Zar ne čuješ što sve protiv tebe svjedoče?«

14 No Isus mu nije odgovorio ni na jedno pitanje pa se Pilat jako čudio.

Baraba oslobođen umjesto Isusa

(Mk 15,6-15; Lk 23,13-25; Iv 18,39–19,16)

15 Upravitelj je običavao svakoga blagdana pustiti narodu jednoga zatvorenika po njihovoj želji. 16 U to su vrijeme imali zloglasnoga zatvorenika zvanog Baraba[b]. 17 Kad se narod okupio, Pilat je upitao: »Koga želite da vam oslobodim: Barabu ili Isusa koji se zove Krist?« 18 Pilat je, naime, znao da su mu Isusa predali iz zavisti.

19 Dok je Pilat sjedio na sudačkoj stolici, njegova mu je žena poručila: »Nemoj učiniti ništa protiv toga nevinog čovjeka. Cijeli sam dan uznemirena zbog sna koji sam sanjala o njemu.«

20 No svećenički poglavari i starješine nagovorili su narod da od Pilata zatraži da pusti Barabu, a Isusa da pogubi.

21 Tada ih je upravitelj upitao: »Kojega od ove dvojice želite da vam oslobodim?«

Odgovorili su: »Barabu!«

22 Pilat ih je upitao: »Što da onda učinim s Isusom zvanim Krist?«

»Neka se razapne!« svi su odgovorili.

23 Pilat je upitao: »Zašto? Kakav je zločin počinio?«

A oni su još glasnije vikali: »Razapni ga!«

24 Kako je Pilat vidio da time ništa ne postiže i da nastaje sve veći metež, uzeo je vode i pred narodom oprao ruke[c], rekavši: »Nevin sam za smrt ovog pravednika. Odgovornost pada na vas.«

25 A sav je narod odgovorio: »Njegova smrt neka padne na nas i na našu djecu!«

26 Pilat im je tada oslobodio Barabu, a Isusa je izbičevao i zatim predao da ga razapnu.

Isusa izruguju

(Mk 15,16-20; Iv 19,2-3)

27 Onda su upraviteljevi vojnici odveli Isusa u upraviteljevu palaču i oko njega okupili cijelu skupinu vojnika. 28 Zatim su ga svukli i prebacili na njega grimizni ogrtač. 29 Ispleli su krunu od trnja i stavili mu je na glavu, a u desnu su mu ruku stavili trsku. Kleknuli su pred njega i rugali mu se govoreći: »Živio kralj Židova!« 30 Zatim su pljuvali po njemu i udarali ga trskom po glavi. 31 Kad su mu se prestali izrugivati, uzeli su s njega ogrtač i obukli mu njegovu odjeću te ga odveli da ga razapnu.

Isusa razapinju na križ

(Mk 15,21-32; Lk 23,26-43; Iv 19,17-27)

32 Dok su izlazili iz grada, naišli su na nekog čovjeka iz Cirene koji se zvao Šimun te su ga prisilili da nosi Isusov križ. 33 Kad su došli do mjesta zvanoga Golgota, što znači Lubanja, 34 dali su Isusu da pije vino pomiješano sa žuči[d]. No kad ga je okusio, nije htio piti. 35 Tada su ga razapeli i bacanjem kocke razdijelili njegovu odjeću među sobom. 36 Zatim su ondje sjeli i čuvali ga. 37 Iznad glave su mu stavili natpis na kojem je bila napisana njegova optužba: »Ovo je Isus, kralj Židova.« 38 Zajedno s njim razapeli su i dvojicu razbojnika—jednoga s njegove desne strane, a drugoga s lijeve. 39 Prolaznici su ga vrijeđali. Mahali su glavama 40 i govorili: »Ti, koji si rekao da možeš srušiti Hram i za tri dana ponovo ga sagraditi, spasi samoga sebe! Ako si Božji Sin, siđi s križa!«

41 Slično su mu se rugali i svećenički poglavari, zajedno s učiteljima Zakona i starješinama. Govorili su: 42 »Spasio je druge, ali ne može spasiti samog sebe. On je kralj Izraela pa neka sada siđe s križa i mi ćemo mu povjerovati. 43 Uzda se u Boga, pa neka ga on spasi, ako želi. Ta sam je rekao: ‘Ja sam Božji Sin.’« 44 Na isti su ga način vrijeđali i razbojnici koji su s njim bili razapeti.

Isusova smrt

(Mk 15,33-41; Lk 23,44-49; Iv 19,28-30)

45 Od podneva pa do tri sata po cijeloj je zemlji zavladala tama. 46 Oko tri sata Isus je povikao jakim glasom: »Eli, Eli! Lema sabahthani?«, što znači: »Bože moj, Bože moj! Zašto si me ostavio?«[e]

47 To su čuli neki koji su ondje stajali pa su rekli: »Zove Iliju[f].«

48 Jedan od njih odmah je otrčao, uzeo spužvu, natopio je octom te je stavio na štap i ponudio Isusu da pije. 49 A ostali su govorili: »Stani da vidimo hoće li doći Ilija da ga spasi.«

50 Isus je još jednom povikao jakim glasom, a potom je izdahnuo[g].

51 Istoga se trena zastor u Hramu razderao popola, od vrha do dna. Zemlja se potresla, a stijene su se raspucale. 52 Grobovi su se otvorili i uskrsla su tijela mnogih umrlih Božjih ljudi. 53 Nakon Isusovog uskrsnuća izašli su iz grobova i otišli u Sveti Grad[h] te se pokazali mnogima.

54 Kad su časnik i oni koji su s njim čuvali Isusa vidjeli potres i ostale događaje, jako su se prestrašili i rekli: »Ovaj je zaista bio Božji Sin!«

55 Tamo su bile i mnoge žene koje su sve to izdaleka promatrale. Pratile su Isusa još iz Galileje i služile mu. 56 Među njima su bile Marija Magdalena, Marija, majka Jakovljeva i Josipova te majka Zebedejevih sinova[i].

Isusov ukop

(Mk 15,42-47; Lk 23,50-56; Iv 19,38-42)

57 Kad se spustila večer, došao je neki bogati čovjek iz Arimateje po imenu Josip. I on je bio Isusov učenik. 58 Otišao je k Pilatu i zatražio Isusovo tijelo. Pilat je naredio da mu predaju tijelo. 59 Josip je uzeo tijelo i zamotao ga u novo platno. 60 Položio ga je u sasvim novu grobnicu koju je za sebe bio isklesao u stijeni. Zatim je ulaz zatvorio velikim kamenom i otišao. 61 A Marija Magdalena i druga Marija sjedile su preko puta groba.

62 Sutradan, nakon Dana pripreme[j], otišli su svećenički poglavari i farizeji k Pilatu. 63 Rekli su mu: »Gospodine, sjetili smo se da je onaj varalica još za života rekao: ‘Za tri dana ustat ću od mrtvih.’ 64 Zato naredi da se grob dobro čuva sve do trećeg dana, da ne bi došli njegovi učenici i ukrali tijelo, pa onda rekli narodu: ‘Ustao je od mrtvih.’ Tako bi ta posljednja prevara bila gora od prve.«

65 A Pilat im je rekao: »Evo vam straže pa idite i osigurajte grob kako znate!« 66 Oni su otišli i osigurali grob. Zapečatili su kamen i postavili stražu.

Matthew 27
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

Jesus Brought before Pilate

27 When morning came, all the chief priests and the elders of the people conferred together against Jesus in order to bring about his death. 2 They bound him, led him away, and handed him over to Pilate the governor.

The Suicide of Judas

3 When Judas, his betrayer, saw that Jesus[a] was condemned, he repented and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders. 4 He said, ‘I have sinned by betraying innocent[b] blood.’ But they said, ‘What is that to us? See to it yourself.’ 5 Throwing down the pieces of silver in the temple, he departed; and he went and hanged himself. 6 But the chief priests, taking the pieces of silver, said, ‘It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, since they are blood money.’ 7 After conferring together, they used them to buy the potter’s field as a place to bury foreigners. 8 For this reason that field has been called the Field of Blood to this day. 9 Then was fulfilled what had been spoken through the prophet Jeremiah,[c] ‘And they took[d] the thirty pieces of silver, the price of the one on whom a price had been set,[e] on whom some of the people of Israel had set a price, 10 and they gave[f] them for the potter’s field, as the Lord commanded me.’

Pilate Questions Jesus

11 Now Jesus stood before the governor; and the governor asked him, ‘Are you the King of the Jews?’ Jesus said, ‘You say so.’ 12 But when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he did not answer. 13 Then Pilate said to him, ‘Do you not hear how many accusations they make against you?’ 14 But he gave him no answer, not even to a single charge, so that the governor was greatly amazed.

Barabbas or Jesus?

15 Now at the festival the governor was accustomed to release a prisoner for the crowd, anyone whom they wanted. 16 At that time they had a notorious prisoner, called Jesus[g] Barabbas. 17 So after they had gathered, Pilate said to them, ‘Whom do you want me to release for you, Jesus[h] Barabbas or Jesus who is called the Messiah?’[i] 18 For he realized that it was out of jealousy that they had handed him over. 19 While he was sitting on the judgement seat, his wife sent word to him, ‘Have nothing to do with that innocent man, for today I have suffered a great deal because of a dream about him.’ 20 Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus killed. 21 The governor again said to them, ‘Which of the two do you want me to release for you?’ And they said, ‘Barabbas.’ 22 Pilate said to them, ‘Then what should I do with Jesus who is called the Messiah?’[j] All of them said, ‘Let him be crucified!’ 23 Then he asked, ‘Why, what evil has he done?’ But they shouted all the more, ‘Let him be crucified!’

Pilate Hands Jesus over to Be Crucified

24 So when Pilate saw that he could do nothing, but rather that a riot was beginning, he took some water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, ‘I am innocent of this man’s blood;[k] see to it yourselves.’ 25 Then the people as a whole answered, ‘His blood be on us and on our children!’ 26 So he released Barabbas for them; and after flogging Jesus, he handed him over to be crucified.

The Soldiers Mock Jesus

27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the governor’s headquarters,[l] and they gathered the whole cohort around him. 28 They stripped him and put a scarlet robe on him, 29 and after twisting some thorns into a crown, they put it on his head. They put a reed in his right hand and knelt before him and mocked him, saying, ‘Hail, King of the Jews!’ 30 They spat on him, and took the reed and struck him on the head. 31 After mocking him, they stripped him of the robe and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him away to crucify him.

The Crucifixion of Jesus

32 As they went out, they came upon a man from Cyrene named Simon; they compelled this man to carry his cross. 33 And when they came to a place called Golgotha (which means Place of a Skull), 34 they offered him wine to drink, mixed with gall; but when he tasted it, he would not drink it. 35 And when they had crucified him, they divided his clothes among themselves by casting lots;[m] 36 then they sat down there and kept watch over him. 37 Over his head they put the charge against him, which read, ‘This is Jesus, the King of the Jews.’

38 Then two bandits were crucified with him, one on his right and one on his left. 39 Those who passed by derided[n] him, shaking their heads 40 and saying, ‘You who would destroy the temple and build it in three days, save yourself! If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross.’ 41 In the same way the chief priests also, along with the scribes and elders, were mocking him, saying, 42 ‘He saved others; he cannot save himself.[o] He is the King of Israel; let him come down from the cross now, and we will believe in him. 43 He trusts in God; let God deliver him now, if he wants to; for he said, “I am God’s Son.”’ 44 The bandits who were crucified with him also taunted him in the same way.

The Death of Jesus

45 From noon on, darkness came over the whole land[p] until three in the afternoon. 46 And about three o’clock Jesus cried with a loud voice, ‘Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?’ that is, ‘My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?’ 47 When some of the bystanders heard it, they said, ‘This man is calling for Elijah.’ 48 At once one of them ran and got a sponge, filled it with sour wine, put it on a stick, and gave it to him to drink. 49 But the others said, ‘Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to save him.’[q] 50 Then Jesus cried again with a loud voice and breathed his last.[r] 51 At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. The earth shook, and the rocks were split. 52 The tombs also were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised. 53 After his resurrection they came out of the tombs and entered the holy city and appeared to many. 54 Now when the centurion and those with him, who were keeping watch over Jesus, saw the earthquake and what took place, they were terrified and said, ‘Truly this man was God’s Son!’[s]

55 Many women were also there, looking on from a distance; they had followed Jesus from Galilee and had provided for him. 56 Among them were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

The Burial of Jesus

57 When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who was also a disciple of Jesus. 58 He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus; then Pilate ordered it to be given to him. 59 So Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth 60 and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn in the rock. He then rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb and went away. 61 Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were there, sitting opposite the tomb.

The Guard at the Tomb

62 The next day, that is, after the day of Preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered before Pilate 63 and said, ‘Sir, we remember what that impostor said while he was still alive, “After three days I will rise again.” 64 Therefore command that the tomb be made secure until the third day; otherwise his disciples may go and steal him away, and tell the people, “He has been raised from the dead”, and the last deception would be worse than the first.’ 65 Pilate said to them, ‘You have a guard[t] of soldiers; go, make it as secure as you can.’[u] 66 So they went with the guard and made the tomb secure by sealing the stone.

Matthew 27
New International Version

Judas Hangs Himself

27 Early in the morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people made their plans how to have Jesus executed.(A) 2 So they bound him, led him away and handed him over(B) to Pilate the governor.(C)

3 When Judas, who had betrayed him,(D) saw that Jesus was condemned, he was seized with remorse and returned the thirty pieces of silver(E) to the chief priests and the elders. 4 “I have sinned,” he said, “for I have betrayed innocent blood.”

“What is that to us?” they replied. “That’s your responsibility.”(F)

5 So Judas threw the money into the temple(G) and left. Then he went away and hanged himself.(H)

6 The chief priests picked up the coins and said, “It is against the law to put this into the treasury, since it is blood money.” 7 So they decided to use the money to buy the potter’s field as a burial place for foreigners. 8 That is why it has been called the Field of Blood(I) to this day. 9 Then what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled:(J) “They took the thirty pieces of silver, the price set on him by the people of Israel, 10 and they used them to buy the potter’s field, as the Lord commanded me.”[a](K)

Jesus Before Pilate(L)

11 Meanwhile Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, “Are you the king of the Jews?”(M)

“You have said so,” Jesus replied.

12 When he was accused by the chief priests and the elders, he gave no answer.(N) 13 Then Pilate asked him, “Don’t you hear the testimony they are bringing against you?”(O) 14 But Jesus made no reply,(P) not even to a single charge—to the great amazement of the governor.

15 Now it was the governor’s custom at the festival to release a prisoner(Q) chosen by the crowd. 16 At that time they had a well-known prisoner whose name was Jesus[b] Barabbas. 17 So when the crowd had gathered, Pilate asked them, “Which one do you want me to release to you: Jesus Barabbas, or Jesus who is called the Messiah?”(R) 18 For he knew it was out of self-interest that they had handed Jesus over to him.

19 While Pilate was sitting on the judge’s seat,(S) his wife sent him this message: “Don’t have anything to do with that innocent(T) man, for I have suffered a great deal today in a dream(U) because of him.”

20 But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowd to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus executed.(V)

21 “Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” asked the governor.

“Barabbas,” they answered.

22 “What shall I do, then, with Jesus who is called the Messiah?”(W) Pilate asked.

They all answered, “Crucify him!”

23 “Why? What crime has he committed?” asked Pilate.

But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify him!”

24 When Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere, but that instead an uproar(X) was starting, he took water and washed his hands(Y) in front of the crowd. “I am innocent of this man’s blood,”(Z) he said. “It is your responsibility!”(AA)

25 All the people answered, “His blood is on us and on our children!”(AB)

26 Then he released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged,(AC) and handed him over to be crucified.

The Soldiers Mock Jesus(AD)

27 Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium(AE) and gathered the whole company of soldiers around him. 28 They stripped him and put a scarlet robe on him,(AF) 29 and then twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on his head. They put a staff in his right hand. Then they knelt in front of him and mocked him. “Hail, king of the Jews!” they said.(AG) 30 They spit on him, and took the staff and struck him on the head again and again.(AH) 31 After they had mocked him, they took off the robe and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him away to crucify him.(AI)

The Crucifixion of Jesus(AJ)

32 As they were going out,(AK) they met a man from Cyrene,(AL) named Simon, and they forced him to carry the cross.(AM) 33 They came to a place called Golgotha (which means “the place of the skull”).(AN) 34 There they offered Jesus wine to drink, mixed with gall;(AO) but after tasting it, he refused to drink it. 35 When they had crucified him, they divided up his clothes by casting lots.(AP) 36 And sitting down, they kept watch(AQ) over him there. 37 Above his head they placed the written charge against him: this is jesus, the king of the jews.

38 Two rebels were crucified with him,(AR) one on his right and one on his left. 39 Those who passed by hurled insults at him, shaking their heads(AS) 40 and saying, “You who are going to destroy the temple and build it in three days,(AT) save yourself!(AU) Come down from the cross, if you are the Son of God!”(AV) 41 In the same way the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders mocked him. 42 “He saved others,” they said, “but he can’t save himself! He’s the king of Israel!(AW) Let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe(AX) in him. 43 He trusts in God. Let God rescue him(AY) now if he wants him, for he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’” 44 In the same way the rebels who were crucified with him also heaped insults on him.

The Death of Jesus(AZ)

45 From noon until three in the afternoon darkness(BA) came over all the land. 46 About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli,[c] lema sabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”).[d](BB)

47 When some of those standing there heard this, they said, “He’s calling Elijah.”

48 Immediately one of them ran and got a sponge. He filled it with wine vinegar,(BC) put it on a staff, and offered it to Jesus to drink. 49 The rest said, “Now leave him alone. Let’s see if Elijah comes to save him.”

50 And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit.(BD)

51 At that moment the curtain of the temple(BE) was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split(BF) 52 and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. 53 They came out of the tombs after Jesus’ resurrection and[e] went into the holy city(BG) and appeared to many people.

54 When the centurion and those with him who were guarding(BH) Jesus saw the earthquake and all that had happened, they were terrified, and exclaimed, “Surely he was the Son of God!”(BI)

55 Many women were there, watching from a distance. They had followed Jesus from Galilee to care for his needs.(BJ) 56 Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joseph,[f] and the mother of Zebedee’s sons.(BK)

The Burial of Jesus(BL)

57 As evening approached, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who had himself become a disciple of Jesus. 58 Going to Pilate, he asked for Jesus’ body, and Pilate ordered that it be given to him. 59 Joseph took the body, wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, 60 and placed it in his own new tomb(BM) that he had cut out of the rock. He rolled a big stone in front of the entrance to the tomb and went away. 61 Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were sitting there opposite the tomb.

The Guard at the Tomb

62 The next day, the one after Preparation Day, the chief priests and the Pharisees went to Pilate. 63 “Sir,” they said, “we remember that while he was still alive that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise again.’(BN) 64 So give the order for the tomb to be made secure until the third day. Otherwise, his disciples may come and steal the body(BO) and tell the people that he has been raised from the dead. This last deception will be worse than the first.”

65 “Take a guard,”(BP) Pilate answered. “Go, make the tomb as secure as you know how.” 66 So they went and made the tomb secure by putting a seal(BQ) on the stone(BR) and posting the guard.(BS)
