耶稣在彼拉多前受审

15 一到早晨,祭司长和长老、文士、全公会的人大家商议,就把耶稣捆绑,解去交给彼拉多 彼拉多问他说:“你是犹太人的王吗?”耶稣回答说:“你说的是。” 祭司长告他许多的事。 彼拉多又问他说:“你看,他们告你这么多的事,你什么都不回答吗?” 耶稣仍不回答,以致彼拉多觉得稀奇。

祭司长唆众释放巴拉巴

每逢这节期,巡抚照众人所求的释放一个囚犯给他们。 有一个人名叫巴拉巴,和作乱的人一同捆绑;他们作乱的时候,曾杀过人。 众人上去求巡抚照常例给他们办。 彼拉多说:“你们要我释放犹太人的王给你们吗?” 10 他原晓得祭司长是因为嫉妒才把耶稣解了来。 11 只是祭司长挑唆众人,宁可释放巴拉巴给他们。 12 彼拉多又说:“那么样,你们所称为犹太人的王,我怎么办他呢?” 13 他们又喊着说:“把他钉十字架!” 14 彼拉多说:“为什么呢?他做了什么恶事呢?”他们便极力地喊着说:“把他钉十字架!” 15 彼拉多要叫众人喜悦,就释放巴拉巴给他们,将耶稣鞭打了,交给人钉十字架。

戏弄耶稣

16 兵丁把耶稣带进衙门院里,叫齐了全营的兵。 17 他们给他穿上紫袍,又用荆棘编做冠冕给他戴上, 18 就庆贺他说:“恭喜,犹太人的王啊!” 19 又拿一根苇子打他的头,吐唾沫在他脸上,屈膝拜他。 20 戏弄完了,就给他脱了紫袍,仍穿上他自己的衣服,带他出去,要钉十字架。

耶稣被钉十字架

21 有一个古利奈西门,就是亚历山大鲁孚的父亲,从乡下来,经过那地方。他们就勉强他同去,好背着耶稣的十字架。 22 他们带耶稣到了各各他地方(“各各他”翻出来就是“髑髅地”), 23 拿没药调和的酒给耶稣,他却不受。 24 于是将他钉在十字架上,拈阄分他的衣服,看是谁得什么。 25 钉他在十字架上是巳初的时候。 26 在上面有他的罪状,写的是:“犹太人的王。” 27 他们又把两个强盗和他同钉十字架,一个在右边,一个在左边。[a]

辱骂主不能救自己

29 从那里经过的人辱骂他,摇着头说:“咳!你这拆毁圣殿、三日又建造起来的, 30 可以救自己,从十字架上下来吧!” 31 祭司长和文士也是这样戏弄他,彼此说:“他救了别人,不能救自己。 32 以色列的王基督,现在可以从十字架上下来,叫我们看见就信了!”那和他同钉的人也是讥诮他。 33 从午正到申初,遍地都黑暗了。 34 申初的时候,耶稣大声喊着说:“以罗伊!以罗伊!拉马撒巴各大尼?”(翻出来就是:“我的神!我的神!为什么离弃我?” 35 旁边站着的人,有的听见就说:“看哪,他叫以利亚呢!” 36 有一个人跑去,把海绒蘸满了醋,绑在苇子上,送给他喝,说:“且等着,看以利亚来不来把他取下。”

耶稣死的景象

37 耶稣大声喊叫,气就断了。 38 殿里的幔子从上到下裂为两半。 39 对面站着的百夫长看见耶稣这样喊叫[b]断气,就说:“这人真是神的儿子!” 40 还有些妇女远远地观看,内中有抹大拉马利亚,又有小雅各约西的母亲马利亚,并有撒罗米 41 就是耶稣在加利利的时候,跟随他、服侍他的那些人;还有同耶稣上耶路撒冷的好些妇女在那里观看。

安放在坟墓里

42 到了晚上,因为这是预备日,就是安息日的前一日, 43 亚利马太约瑟前来,他是尊贵的议士,也是等候神国的。他放胆进去见彼拉多,求耶稣的身体。 44 彼拉多诧异耶稣已经死了,便叫百夫长来,问他耶稣死了久不久。 45 既从百夫长得知实情,就把耶稣的尸首赐给约瑟 46 约瑟买了细麻布,把耶稣取下来,用细麻布裹好,安放在磐石中凿出来的坟墓里,又滚过一块石头来挡住墓门。 47 抹大拉马利亚约西的母亲马利亚都看见安放他的地方。

Jesus’ Trial before Pilate

15 Very early in the morning the leading priests, the elders, and the teachers of religious law—the entire high council[a]—met to discuss their next step. They bound Jesus, led him away, and took him to Pilate, the Roman governor.

Pilate asked Jesus, “Are you the king of the Jews?”

Jesus replied, “You have said it.”

Then the leading priests kept accusing him of many crimes, and Pilate asked him, “Aren’t you going to answer them? What about all these charges they are bringing against you?” But Jesus said nothing, much to Pilate’s surprise.

Now it was the governor’s custom each year during the Passover celebration to release one prisoner—anyone the people requested. One of the prisoners at that time was Barabbas, a revolutionary who had committed murder in an uprising. The crowd went to Pilate and asked him to release a prisoner as usual.

“Would you like me to release to you this ‘King of the Jews’?” Pilate asked. 10 (For he realized by now that the leading priests had arrested Jesus out of envy.) 11 But at this point the leading priests stirred up the crowd to demand the release of Barabbas instead of Jesus. 12 Pilate asked them, “Then what should I do with this man you call the king of the Jews?”

13 They shouted back, “Crucify him!”

14 “Why?” Pilate demanded. “What crime has he committed?”

But the mob roared even louder, “Crucify him!”

15 So to pacify the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas to them. He ordered Jesus flogged with a lead-tipped whip, then turned him over to the Roman soldiers to be crucified.

The Soldiers Mock Jesus

16 The soldiers took Jesus into the courtyard of the governor’s headquarters (called the Praetorium) and called out the entire regiment. 17 They dressed him in a purple robe, and they wove thorn branches into a crown and put it on his head. 18 Then they saluted him and taunted, “Hail! King of the Jews!” 19 And they struck him on the head with a reed stick, spit on him, and dropped to their knees in mock worship. 20 When they were finally tired of mocking him, they took off the purple robe and put his own clothes on him again. Then they led him away to be crucified.

The Crucifixion

21 A passerby named Simon, who was from Cyrene,[b] was coming in from the countryside just then, and the soldiers forced him to carry Jesus’ cross. (Simon was the father of Alexander and Rufus.) 22 And they brought Jesus to a place called Golgotha (which means “Place of the Skull”). 23 They offered him wine drugged with myrrh, but he refused it.

24 Then the soldiers nailed him to the cross. They divided his clothes and threw dice[c] to decide who would get each piece. 25 It was nine o’clock in the morning when they crucified him. 26 A sign announced the charge against him. It read, “The King of the Jews.” 27 Two revolutionaries[d] were crucified with him, one on his right and one on his left.[e]

29 The people passing by shouted abuse, shaking their heads in mockery. “Ha! Look at you now!” they yelled at him. “You said you were going to destroy the Temple and rebuild it in three days. 30 Well then, save yourself and come down from the cross!”

31 The leading priests and teachers of religious law also mocked Jesus. “He saved others,” they scoffed, “but he can’t save himself! 32 Let this Messiah, this King of Israel, come down from the cross so we can see it and believe him!” Even the men who were crucified with Jesus ridiculed him.

The Death of Jesus

33 At noon, darkness fell across the whole land until three o’clock. 34 Then at three o’clock Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means “My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?”[f]

35 Some of the bystanders misunderstood and thought he was calling for the prophet Elijah. 36 One of them ran and filled a sponge with sour wine, holding it up to him on a reed stick so he could drink. “Wait!” he said. “Let’s see whether Elijah comes to take him down!”

37 Then Jesus uttered another loud cry and breathed his last. 38 And the curtain in the sanctuary of the Temple was torn in two, from top to bottom.

39 When the Roman officer[g] who stood facing him[h] saw how he had died, he exclaimed, “This man truly was the Son of God!”

40 Some women were there, watching from a distance, including Mary Magdalene, Mary (the mother of James the younger and of Joseph[i]), and Salome. 41 They had been followers of Jesus and had cared for him while he was in Galilee. Many other women who had come with him to Jerusalem were also there.

The Burial of Jesus

42 This all happened on Friday, the day of preparation,[j] the day before the Sabbath. As evening approached, 43 Joseph of Arimathea took a risk and went to Pilate and asked for Jesus’ body. (Joseph was an honored member of the high council, and he was waiting for the Kingdom of God to come.) 44 Pilate couldn’t believe that Jesus was already dead, so he called for the Roman officer and asked if he had died yet. 45 The officer confirmed that Jesus was dead, so Pilate told Joseph he could have the body. 46 Joseph bought a long sheet of linen cloth. Then he took Jesus’ body down from the cross, wrapped it in the cloth, and laid it in a tomb that had been carved out of the rock. Then he rolled a stone in front of the entrance. 47 Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joseph saw where Jesus’ body was laid.

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.

And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said unto them, Thou sayest it.

And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.

And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against thee.

But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.

Now at that feast he released unto them one prisoner, whomsoever they desired.

And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.

And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto them.

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.
