23 Then the whole assembly rose and led him off to Pilate.(A) And they began to accuse him, saying, “We have found this man subverting our nation.(B) He opposes payment of taxes to Caesar(C) and claims to be Messiah, a king.”(D)

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

“You have said so,” Jesus replied.

Then Pilate announced to the chief priests and the crowd, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”(E)

But they insisted, “He stirs up the people all over Judea by his teaching. He started in Galilee(F) and has come all the way here.”

On hearing this, Pilate asked if the man was a Galilean.(G) When he learned that Jesus was under Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod,(H) who was also in Jerusalem at that time.

When Herod saw Jesus, he was greatly pleased, because for a long time he had been wanting to see him.(I) From what he had heard about him, he hoped to see him perform a sign of some sort. He plied him with many questions, but Jesus gave him no answer.(J) 10 The chief priests and the teachers of the law were standing there, vehemently accusing him. 11 Then Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked him. Dressing him in an elegant robe,(K) they sent him back to Pilate. 12 That day Herod and Pilate became friends(L)—before this they had been enemies.

13 Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers and the people, 14 and said to them, “You brought me this man as one who was inciting the people to rebellion. I have examined him in your presence and have found no basis for your charges against him.(M) 15 Neither has Herod, for he sent him back to us; as you can see, he has done nothing to deserve death. 16 Therefore, I will punish him(N) and then release him.” [17] [a]

18 But the whole crowd shouted, “Away with this man! Release Barabbas to us!”(O) 19 (Barabbas had been thrown into prison for an insurrection in the city, and for murder.)

20 Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate appealed to them again. 21 But they kept shouting, “Crucify him! Crucify him!”

22 For the third time he spoke to them: “Why? What crime has this man committed? I have found in him no grounds for the death penalty. Therefore I will have him punished and then release him.”(P)

23 But with loud shouts they insistently demanded that he be crucified, and their shouts prevailed. 24 So Pilate decided to grant their demand. 25 He released the man who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, the one they asked for, and surrendered Jesus to their will.

The Crucifixion of Jesus(Q)

26 As the soldiers led him away, they seized Simon from Cyrene,(R) who was on his way in from the country, and put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus.(S) 27 A large number of people followed him, including women who mourned and wailed(T) for him. 28 Jesus turned and said to them, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me; weep for yourselves and for your children.(U) 29 For the time will come when you will say, ‘Blessed are the childless women, the wombs that never bore and the breasts that never nursed!’(V) 30 Then

“‘they will say to the mountains, “Fall on us!”
    and to the hills, “Cover us!”’[b](W)

31 For if people do these things when the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”(X)

32 Two other men, both criminals, were also led out with him to be executed.(Y) 33 When they came to the place called the Skull, they crucified him there, along with the criminals—one on his right, the other on his left. 34 Jesus said, “Father,(Z) forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.”[c](AA) And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.(AB)

35 The people stood watching, and the rulers even sneered at him.(AC) They said, “He saved others; let him save himself if he is God’s Messiah, the Chosen One.”(AD)

36 The soldiers also came up and mocked him.(AE) They offered him wine vinegar(AF) 37 and said, “If you are the king of the Jews,(AG) save yourself.”

38 There was a written notice above him, which read: this is the king of the jews.(AH)

39 One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: “Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself and us!”(AI)

40 But the other criminal rebuked him. “Don’t you fear God,” he said, “since you are under the same sentence? 41 We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.”(AJ)

42 Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.[d](AK)

43 Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”(AL)

The Death of Jesus(AM)

44 It was now about noon, and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon,(AN) 45 for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple(AO) was torn in two.(AP) 46 Jesus called out with a loud voice,(AQ) “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.”[e](AR) When he had said this, he breathed his last.(AS)

47 The centurion, seeing what had happened, praised God(AT) and said, “Surely this was a righteous man.” 48 When all the people who had gathered to witness this sight saw what took place, they beat their breasts(AU) and went away. 49 But all those who knew him, including the women who had followed him from Galilee,(AV) stood at a distance,(AW) watching these things.

The Burial of Jesus(AX)

50 Now there was a man named Joseph, a member of the Council, a good and upright man, 51 who had not consented to their decision and action. He came from the Judean town of Arimathea, and he himself was waiting for the kingdom of God.(AY) 52 Going to Pilate, he asked for Jesus’ body. 53 Then he took it down, wrapped it in linen cloth and placed it in a tomb cut in the rock, one in which no one had yet been laid. 54 It was Preparation Day,(AZ) and the Sabbath was about to begin.

55 The women who had come with Jesus from Galilee(BA) followed Joseph and saw the tomb and how his body was laid in it. 56 Then they went home and prepared spices and perfumes.(BB) But they rested on the Sabbath in obedience to the commandment.(BC)

Jesus Has Risen(BD)

24 On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared(BE) and went to the tomb. They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.(BF) While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning(BG) stood beside them. In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee:(BH) ‘The Son of Man(BI) must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’(BJ) Then they remembered his words.(BK)

When they came back from the tomb, they told all these things to the Eleven and to all the others. 10 It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the others with them(BL) who told this to the apostles.(BM) 11 But they did not believe(BN) the women, because their words seemed to them like nonsense. 12 Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb. Bending over, he saw the strips of linen lying by themselves,(BO) and he went away,(BP) wondering to himself what had happened.

On the Road to Emmaus

13 Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles[f] from Jerusalem.(BQ) 14 They were talking with each other about everything that had happened. 15 As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them;(BR) 16 but they were kept from recognizing him.(BS)

17 He asked them, “What are you discussing together as you walk along?”

They stood still, their faces downcast. 18 One of them, named Cleopas,(BT) asked him, “Are you the only one visiting Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?”

19 “What things?” he asked.

“About Jesus of Nazareth,”(BU) they replied. “He was a prophet,(BV) powerful in word and deed before God and all the people. 20 The chief priests and our rulers(BW) handed him over to be sentenced to death, and they crucified him; 21 but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel.(BX) And what is more, it is the third day(BY) since all this took place. 22 In addition, some of our women amazed us.(BZ) They went to the tomb early this morning 23 but didn’t find his body. They came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels, who said he was alive. 24 Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but they did not see Jesus.”(CA)

25 He said to them, “How foolish you are, and how slow to believe all that the prophets have spoken! 26 Did not the Messiah have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?”(CB) 27 And beginning with Moses(CC) and all the Prophets,(CD) he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.(CE)

28 As they approached the village to which they were going, Jesus continued on as if he were going farther. 29 But they urged him strongly, “Stay with us, for it is nearly evening; the day is almost over.” So he went in to stay with them.

30 When he was at the table with them, he took bread, gave thanks, broke it(CF) and began to give it to them. 31 Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him,(CG) and he disappeared from their sight. 32 They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us(CH) while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures(CI) to us?”

33 They got up and returned at once to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, assembled together 34 and saying, “It is true! The Lord(CJ) has risen and has appeared to Simon.”(CK) 35 Then the two told what had happened on the way, and how Jesus was recognized by them when he broke the bread.(CL)

Jesus Appears to the Disciples

36 While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.”(CM)

37 They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost.(CN) 38 He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? 39 Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see;(CO) a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”

40 When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet. 41 And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?” 42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish, 43 and he took it and ate it in their presence.(CP)

44 He said to them, “This is what I told you while I was still with you:(CQ) Everything must be fulfilled(CR) that is written about me in the Law of Moses,(CS) the Prophets(CT) and the Psalms.”(CU)

45 Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. 46 He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer(CV) and rise from the dead on the third day,(CW) 47 and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name(CX) to all nations,(CY) beginning at Jerusalem.(CZ) 48 You are witnesses(DA) of these things. 49 I am going to send you what my Father has promised;(DB) but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”

The Ascension of Jesus

50 When he had led them out to the vicinity of Bethany,(DC) he lifted up his hands and blessed them. 51 While he was blessing them, he left them and was taken up into heaven.(DD) 52 Then they worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy. 53 And they stayed continually at the temple,(DE) praising God.

23 فَقَامَتْ جَمَاعَتُهُمْ كُلُّهَا، وَسَاقُوا يَسُوعَ إِلَى بِيلاطُسَ. وَبَدَأُوا يَتَّهِمُونَهُ قَائِلِينَ: «تَبَيَّنَ لَنَا أَنَّ هَذَا يُضَلِّلُ أُمَّتَنَا، وَيَمْنَعُ أَنْ تُدْفَعَ الْجِزْيَةُ لِلْقَيْصَرِ وَيَدَّعِي أَنَّهُ الْمَسِيحُ الْمَلِكُ!» فَسَأَلَهُ بِيلاطُسُ: «أَأَنْتَ مَلِكُ الْيَهُودِ؟» فَأَجَابَهُ: «أَنْتَ قُلْتَ!» فَقَالَ بِيلاطُسُ لِرُؤَسَاءِ الْكَهَنَةِ وَالْجُمُوعِ: «لا أَجِدُ ذَنْباً فِي هَذَا الإِنْسَانِ!» وَلَكِنَّهُمْ أَلَحُّوا قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّهُ يُثِيرُ الشَّعْبَ، مُعَلِّماً فِي الْيَهُودِيَّةِ كُلِّهَا، ابْتِدَاءً مِنَ الْجَلِيلِ حَتَّى هُنَا!» فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ بِيلاطُسُ ذِكْرَ الْجَلِيلِ، اسْتَفْسَرَ: «هَلِ الرَّجُلُ مِنَ الْجَلِيلِ؟». وَإِذْ عَلِمَ أَنَّهُ تَابِعٌ لِسُلْطَةِ هِيرُودُسَ، أَحَالَهُ عَلَى هِيرُودُسَ، إِذْ كَانَ هُوَ أَيْضاً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ فِي تِلْكَ الأَيَّامِ.

وَلَمَّا رَأَى هِيرُودُسُ يَسُوعَ، فَرِحَ جِدّاً، لأَنَّهُ كَانَ يَتَمَنَّى مِنْ زَمَانٍ طَوِيلٍ أَنْ يَرَاهُ بِسَبَبِ سَمَاعِهِ الْكَثِيرَ عَنْهُ، وَيَرْجُو أَنْ يَرَى آيَةً تُجْرَى عَلَى يَدِهِ. فَسَأَلَهُ فِي قَضَايَا كَثِيرَةٍ، أَمَّا هُوَ فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ عَنْ شَيْءٍ. 10 وَوَقَفَ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ وَالْكَتَبَةُ يَتَّهِمُونَهُ بِعُنْفٍ. 11 فَاحْتَقَرَهُ هِيرُودُسُ وَجُنُودُهُ، وَسَخِرَ مِنْهُ، إِذْ أَلْبَسَهُ ثَوْباً بَرَّاقاً وَرَدَّهُ إِلَى بِيلاطُسَ. 12 وَصَارَ بِيلاطُسُ وَهِيرُودُسُ صَدِيقَيْنِ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، وَقَدْ كَانَتْ بَيْنَهُمَا عَدَاوَةٌ سَابِقَةٌ.

13 فَدَعَا بِيلاطُسُ رُؤَسَاءَ الْكَهَنَةِ وَالْقُوَّادَ وَالشَّعْبَ. 14 وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَحْضَرْتُمْ إِلَيَّ هَذَا الإِنْسَانَ عَلَى أَنَّهُ يُضَلِّلُ الشَّعْبَ. وَهَا أَنَا، بَعْدَمَا فَحَصْتُ الأَمْرَ أَمَامَكُمْ، لَمْ أَجِدْ فِي هَذَا الإِنْسَانِ أَيَّ ذَنْبٍ مِمَّا تَتَّهِمُونَهُ بِهِ، 15 وَلا وَجَدَ هِيرُودُسُ أَيْضاً، إِذْ رَدَّهُ إِلَيْنَا. وَهَا إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ شَيْئاً يَسْتَوْجِبُ الْمَوْتَ. 16 فَسَأَجْلِدُهُ إِذَنْ وَأُطْلِقُهُ». 17 وَكَانَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُطْلِقَ لَهُمْ فِي كُلِّ عِيدٍ سَجِيناً وَاحِداً. 18 وَلَكِنَّهُمْ صَرَخُوا بِجُمْلَتِهِمْ: «اقْتُلْ هَذَا، وَأَطْلِقْ لَنَا بَارَابَاسَ!» 19 وَكَانَ ذَاكَ قَدْ أُلْقِيَ فِي السِّجْنِ بِسَبَبِ فِتْنَةٍ حَدَثَتْ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ وَبِسَبَبِ قَتْلٍ. 20 فَخَاطَبَهُمْ بِيلاطُسُ ثَانِيَةً وَهُوَ رَاغِبٌ فِي إِطْلاقِ يَسُوعَ. 21 فَرَدُّوا صَارِخِينَ: «اصْلِبْهُ! اصْلِبْهُ!» 22 فَسَأَلَهُمْ ثَالِثَةً: «فَأَيَّ شَرٍّ فَعَلَ هَذَا؟ لَمْ أَجِدْ فِيهِ ذَنْباً عُقُوبَتُهُ الْمَوْتُ. فَسَأَجْلِدُهُ إِذَنْ وَأُطْلِقُهُ!» 23 فَأَخَذُوا يُلِحُّونَ صَارِخِينَ بِأَصْوَاتٍ عَالِيَةٍ، طَالِبِينَ أَنْ يُصْلَبَ! فَتَغَلَّبَتْ أَصْوَاتُهُمْ، 24 وَحَكَمَ بِيلاطُسُ أَنْ يُنَفَّذَ طَلَبُهُمْ. 25 فَأَطْلَقَ الَّذِي كَانَ قَدْ أُلْقِيَ فِي السِّجْنِ بِسَبَبِ الْفِتْنَةِ وَالْقَتْلِ، ذَاكَ الَّذِي طَلَبُوا إِطْلاقَهُ. وَأَمَّا يَسُوعُ فَسَلَّمَهُ بِيلاطُسُ إِلَى إِرَادَتِهِمْ.

الصلب

26 وَفِيمَا هُمْ يَسُوقُونَهُ (إِلَى الصَّلْبِ)، أَمْسَكُوا رَجُلاً مِنَ الْقَيْرَوَانِ اسْمُهُ سِمْعَانُ، كَانَ رَاجِعاً مِنَ الْحَقْلِ، وَوَضَعُوا عَلَيْهِ الصَّلِيبَ لِيَحْمِلَهُ خَلْفَ يَسُوعَ. 27 وَقَدْ تَبِعَهُ جَمْعٌ كَبِيرٌ مِنَ الشَّعْبِ وَمِنْ نِسَاءٍ كُنَّ يُوَلْوِلْنَ وَيَنْدُبْنَهُ. 28 فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيْهِنَّ يَسُوعُ، وَقَالَ: «يَا بَنَاتِ أُورُشَلِيمَ، لَا تَبْكِينَ عَلَيِّ، بَلِ ابْكِينَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِكُنَّ وَعَلَى أَوْلادِكُنَّ! 29 فَهَا إِنَّ أَيَّاماً سَتَأْتِي فِيهَا يَقُولُ النَّاسُ: طُوبَى لِلْعَوَاقِرِ اللَّوَاتِي مَا حَمَلَتْ بُطُونُهُنَّ وَلا أَرْضَعَتْ أَثْدَاؤُهُنَّ! 30 عِنْدَئِذٍ يَقُولُونَ لِلْجِبَالِ: اسْقُطِي عَلَيْنَا، وَلِلتِّلالِ: غَطِّينَا! 31 فَإِنْ كَانُوا قَدْ فَعَلُوا هَذَا بِالْغُصْنِ الأَخْضَرِ، فَمَاذَا يَجْرِي لِلْيَابِسِ؟» 32 وَسِيقَ إِلَى الْقَتْلِ مَعَ يَسُوعَ أَيْضاً اثْنَانِ مِنَ الْمُجْرِمِينَ.

33 وَلَمَّا وَصَلُوا إِلَى الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي يُدْعَى الْجُمْجُمَةَ، صَلَبُوهُ هُنَاكَ مَعَ الْمُجْرِمَيْنِ، وَاحِدٌ عَنِ الْيَمِينِ وَالآخَرُ عَنِ اليَسَارِ. 34 وَقَالَ يَسُوعُ: «يَا أَبِي، اغْفِرْ لَهُمْ، لأَنَّهُمْ لَا يَدْرُونَ مَا يَفْعَلُونَ!» وَاقْتَسَمُوا ثِيَابَهُ مُقْتَرِعِينَ عَلَيْهَا.

35 وَوَقَفَ الشَّعْبُ هُنَاكَ يُرَاقِبُونَهُ، وَكَذلِكَ الرُّؤَسَاءُ يَتَهَكَّمُونَ قَائِلِينَ: «خَلَّصَ آخَرِينَ! فَلْيُخَلِّصْ نَفْسَهُ إِنْ كَانَ هُوَ الْمَسِيحَ الْمُخْتَارَ عِنْدَ اللهِ!» 36 وَسَخِرَ مِنْهُ الْجُنُودُ أَيْضاً، فَكَانُوا يَتَقَدَّمُونَ إِلَيْهِ وَيُقَدِّمُونَ لَهُ خَلًّا، 37 قَائِلِينَ: «إِنْ كُنْتَ أَنْتَ مَلِكَ الْيَهُودِ، فَخَلِّصْ نَفْسَكَ» 38 وَكَانَتْ فَوْقَهُ لافِتَةٌ كُتِبَ فِيهَا: «هَذَا هُوَ مَلِكُ الْيَهُودِ». 39 وَأَخَذَ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الْمُجْرِمَيْنِ الْمَصْلُوبَيْنِ يُجَدِّفُ عَلَيْهِ فَيَقُولُ: «أَلَسْتَ أَنْتَ الْمَسِيحَ؟ إِذَنْ خَلِّصْ نَفْسَكَ وَخَلِّصْنَا!» 40 وَلكِنَّ الآخَرَ كَلَّمَهُ زَاجِراً فَقَالَ: «أَحَتَّى أَنْتَ لَا تَخَافُ اللهَ، وَأَنْتَ تُعَانِي الْعُقُوبَةَ نَفْسَهَا؟ 41 أَمَّا نَحْنُ فَعُقُوبَتُنَا عَادِلَةٌ لأَنَّنَا نَنَالُ الْجَزَاءَ الْعَادِلَ لِقَاءَ مَا فَعَلْنَا. وَأَمَّا هَذَا الإِنْسَانُ، فَلَمْ يَفْعَلُ شَيْئاً فِي غَيْرِ مَحَلِّهِ!» 42 ثُمَّ قَالَ: «يَا يَسُوعُ، اذْكُرْنِي عِنْدَمَا تَجِيءُ فِي مَلَكُوتِكَ!» 43 فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكَ: الْيَوْمَ سَتَكُونُ مَعِي فِي الْفِرْدَوْسِ!»

موت يسوع

44 وَنَحْوَ السَّاعَةِ السَّادِسَةِ (الثَّانِيَةَ عَشْرَةَ ظُهْراً)، حَلَّ الظَّلامُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا حَتَّى السَّاعَةِ التَّاسِعَةِ (الثَّالِثَةِ بَعْدَ الظُّهْرِ). 45 وَأَظْلَمَتِ الشَّمْسُ، وَانْشَطَرَ سِتَارُ الْهَيْكَلِ مِنَ الوَسَطِ. 46 وَقَالَ يَسُوعُ صَارِخاً بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ: «يَا أَبِي، فِي يَدَيْكَ أَسْتَوْدِعُ رُوحِي!» وَإِذْ قَالَ هَذَا، أَسْلَمَ الرُّوحَ. 47 فَلَمَّا رَأَى قَائِدُ الْمِئَةِ مَا حَدَثَ، مَجَّدَ اللهَ قَائِلاً: «بِالْحَقِيقَةِ كَانَ هَذَا الإِنْسَانُ بَارّاً». 48 كَذلِكَ الْجُمُوعُ الَّذِينَ احْتَشَدُوا لِيُرَاقِبُوا مَشْهَدَ الصَّلْبِ، لَمَّا رَأَوْا مَا حَدَثَ، رَجَعُوا قَارِعِينَ الصُّدُورَ. 49 أَمَّا جَمِيعُ مَعَارِفِهِ، بِمَنْ فِيهِمِ النِّسَاءُ اللَّوَاتِي تَبِعْنَهُ مِنَ الْجَلِيلِ، فَقَدْ كَانُوا وَاقِفِينَ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ يُرَاقِبُونَ هذِهِ الأُمُورَ.

دفن يسوع

50 وَكَانَ فِي الْمَجْلِسِ الأَعْلَى إِنْسَانٌ اسْمُهُ يُوسُفُ، وَهُوَ إِنْسَانٌ صَالِحٌ وَتَقِيٌّ 51 لَمْ يَكُنْ مُوَافِقاً عَلَى قَرَارِ أَعْضَاءِ الْمَجْلِسِ وَفِعْلَتِهِمْ، وَهُوَ مِنَ الرَّامَةِ إِحْدَى مُدُنِ الْيَهُودِ، وَكَانَ مِنْ مُنْتَظِرِي مَلَكُوتِ اللهِ. 52 فَإِذَا بِهِ قَدْ تَقَدَّمَ إِلَى بِيلاطُسَ وَطَلَبَ جُثْمَانَ يَسُوعَ. 53 ثُمَّ أَنْزَلَهُ (مِنْ عَلَى الصَّلِيبِ) وَكَفَّنَهُ بِكَتَّانِ، وَوَضَعَهُ فِي قَبْرٍ مَنْحُوتٍ (فِي الصَّخْرِ) لَمْ يُدْفَنْ فِيهِ أَحَدٌ مِنْ قَبْلُ. 54 وَكَانَ ذَلِكَ النَّهَارُ يَوْمَ الإِعْدَادِ لِلسَّبْتِ الَّذِي كَانَ قَدْ بَدَأَ يَقْتَرِبُ. 55 وَتَبِعَتْ يُوسُفَ النِّسَاءُ اللَّوَاتِي خَرَجْنَ مِنَ الْجَلِيلِ مَعَ يَسُوعَ، فَرَأَيْنَ الْقَبْرَ وَكَيْفَ وُضِعَ جُثْمَانُهُ. 56 ثُمَّ رَجَعْنَ وَهَيَّأْنَ حَنُوطاً وَطِيباً، وَاسْتَرَحْنَ يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ حَسَبَ الْوَصِيَّةِ.

القيامة

24 وَلكِنْ فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَوَّلِ مِنَ الأُسْبُوعِ، بَاكِراً جِدّاً، جِئْنَ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ حَامِلاتٍ الْحَنُوطَ الَّذِي هَيَّأْنَهُ. فَوَجَدْنَ الْحَجَرَ قَدْ دُحْرِجَ عَنِ الْقَبْرِ. وَلكِنْ لَمَّا دَخَلْنَ لَمْ يَجِدْنَ جُثْمَانَ الرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ. وَفِيمَا هُنَّ مُتَحَيِّرَاتٌ فِي ذلِكَ، إِذَا رَجُلانِ بِثِيَابٍ بَرَّاقَةٍ قَدْ وَقَفَا بِجَانِبِهِنَّ. فَتَمَلَّكَهُنَّ الْخَوْفُ وَنَكَّسْنَ وُجُوهَهُنَّ إِلَى الأَرْضِ. عِنْدَئِذٍ قَالَ لَهُنَّ الرَّجُلانِ: «لِمَاذَا تَبْحَثْنَ عَنِ الْحَيِّ بَيْنَ الأَمْوَاتِ؟ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ هُنَا، وَلَكِنَّهُ قَدْ قَامَ! اذْكُرْنَ مَا كَلَّمَكُمْ بِهِ إِذْ كَانَ بَعْدُ فِي الْجَلِيلِ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ ابْنَ الإِنْسَانِ لابُدَّ أَنْ يُسَلَّمَ إِلَى أَيْدِي أُنَاسٍ خَاطِئِينَ، فَيُصْلَبَ، وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ يَقُومُ». فَتَذَكَّرْنَ كَلامَهُ. وَإِذْ رَجَعْنَ مِنَ الْقَبْرِ، أَخْبَرْنَ الأَحَدَ عَشَرَ وَالآخَرِينَ كُلَّهُمْ بِهذِهِ الأُمُورِ جَمِيعاً. 10 وَكَانَتِ اللَّوَاتِي أَخْبَرْنَ الرُّسُلَ بِذلِكَ هُنَّ مَرْيَمُ الْمَجْدَلِيَّةُ، وَيُوَنَّا، وَمَرْيَمُ أُمُّ يَعْقُوبَ، وَالأُخْرَيَاتُ اللَّوَاتِي ذَهَبْنَ مَعَهُنَّ. 11 فَبَدَا كَلامُهُنَّ فِي نَظَرِ الرُّسُلِ كَأَنَّهُ هَذَيَانٌ، وَلَمْ يُصَدِّقُوهُنَّ. 12 إِلّا أَنَّ بُطْرُسَ قَامَ وَرَكَضَ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ، وَإِذِ انْحَنَى رَأَى الأَكْفَانَ الْمَلْفُوفَةَ وَحْدَهَا، ثُمَّ مَضَى مُتَعَجِّباً مِمَّا حَدَثَ.

في الطريق إلى عمواس

13 وَكَانَ اثْنَانِ مِنْهُمْ مُنْطَلِقَيْنِ فِي ذلِكَ الْيَوْمِ إِلَى قَرْيَةٍ تَبْعُدُ سِتِّينَ غَلْوَةً (نَحْوَ سَبْعَةِ أَمْيَالٍ) عَنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ، اسْمُهَا عِمْوَاسُ. 14 وَكَانَا يَتَحَدَّثَانِ عَنْ جَمِيعِ مَا حَدَثَ 15 وَبَيْنَمَا هُمَا يَتَحَدَّثَانِ وَيَتَبَاحَثَانِ، إِذَا يَسُوعُ نَفْسُهُ قَدِ اقْتَرَبَ إِلَيْهِمَا وَسَارَ مَعَهُمَا. 16 وَلكِنَّ أَعْيُنَهُمَا حُجِبَتْ عَنْ مَعْرِفَتِهِ. 17 وَسَأَلَهُمَا: «أَيُّ حَدِيثٍ يَجْرِي بَيْنَكُمَا وَأَنْتُمَا سَائِرَانِ؟» فَتَوَقَّفَا عَابِسَيْنِ. 18 وَأَجَابَ أَحَدُهُمَا، وَاسْمُهُ كَلْيُوبَاسُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَأَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ الْغَرِيبُ النَّازِلُ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَلا تَعْلَمُ بِمَا حَدَثَ فِيهَا فِي هذِهِ الأَيَّامِ؟» 19 فَقَالَ لَهُمَا: «مَاذَا حَدَثَ؟» فَقَالا: «مَا حَدَثَ لِيَسُوعَ النَّاصِرِيِّ الَّذِي كَانَ نَبِيًّا مُقْتَدِراً فِي الْفِعْلِ وَالْقَوْلِ أَمَامَ اللهِ وَالشَّعْبِ كُلِّهِ، 20 وَكَيْفَ سَلَّمَهُ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ وَحُكَّامُنَا إِلَى عُقُوبَةِ الْمَوْتِ وَصَلَبُوهُ. 21 وَلَكِنَّنَا كُنَّا نَرْجُو أَنَّهُ الْمُوشِكُ أَنْ يَفْدِيَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَمَعَ هَذَا كُلِّهِ، فَالْيَوْمَ هُوَ الْيَوْمُ الثَّالِثُ مُنْذُ حُدُوثِ ذلِكَ. 22 عَلَى أَنَّ بَعْضَ النِّسَاءِ مِنَّا أَذْهَلْنَنَا، إِذْ قَصَدْنَ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ بَاكِراً 23 وَلَمْ يَجِدْنَ جُثْمَانَهُ، فَرَجَعْنَ وَقُلْنَ لَنَا إِنَّهُنَّ شَاهَدْنَ رُؤْيَا: مَلاكَيْنِ يَقُولانِ إِنَّهُ حَيٌّ. 24 فَذَهَبَ بَعْضُ الَّذِينَ مَعَنَا إِلَى الْقَبْرِ فَوَجَدُوا الأَمْرَ صَحِيحاً عَلَى حَدِّ مَا قَالَتِ النِّسَاءُ أَيْضاً، وَأَمَّا هُوَ فَلَمْ يَرَوْهُ!» 25 فَقَالَ لَهُمَا: «يَا قَلِيلَيِ الْفَهْمِ وَبَطِيئَيِ الْقَلْبِ فِي الإِيمَانِ بِجَمِيعِ مَا تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ الأَنْبِيَاءُ! 26 أَمَا كَانَ لابُدَّ أَنْ يُعَانِيَ الْمَسِيحُ هذِهِ الآلامَ ثُمَّ يَدْخُلَ إِلَى مَجْدِهِ؟» 27 ثُمَّ أَخَذَ يُفَسِّرُ لَهُمَا، مُنْطَلِقاً مِنْ مُوسَى وَمِنَ الأَنْبِيَاءِ جَمِيعاً، مَا وَرَدَ عَنْهُ فِي جَمِيعِ الْكُتُبِ.

28 ثُمَّ اقْتَرَبُوا مِنَ الْقَرْيَةِ الَّتِي كَانَ التِّلْمِيذَانِ يَقْصِدَانِهَا، وَتَظَاهَرَ هُوَ بِأَنَّهُ ذَاهِبٌ إِلَى مَكَانٍ أَبْعَدَ. 29 فَأَلَحَّا عَلَيْهِ قَائِلَيْنِ: «انْزِلْ عِنْدَنَا، فَقَدْ مَالَ النَّهَارُ وَاقْتَرَبَ الْمَسَاءُ». فَدَخَلَ لِيَنْزِلَ عِنْدَهُمَا. 30 وَلَمَّا اتَّكَأَ مَعَهُمَا، أَخَذَ الْخُبْزَ، وَبَارَكَ، وَكَسَّرَ، وَأَعْطَاهُمَا. 31 فَانْفَتَحَتْ أَعْيُنُهُمَا وَعَرَفَاهُ. ثُمَّ اخْتَفَى عَنْهُمَا. 32 فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِلآخَرِ: «أَمَا كَانَ قَلْبُنَا يَلْتَهِبُ فِي صُدُورِنَا فِيمَا كَانَ يُحَدِّثُنَا فِي الطَّرِيقِ وَيَشْرَحُ لَنَا الْكُتُبَ؟» 33 ثُمَّ قَامَا فِي تِلْكَ السَّاعَةِ عَيْنِهَا، وَرَجَعَا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَوَجَدَا الأَحَدَ عَشَرَ وَالَّذِينَ مَعَهُمْ مُجْتَمِعِينَ، 34 وَكَانُوا يَقُولُونُ: «حَقّاً إِنَّ الرَّبَّ قَامَ، وَقَدْ ظَهَرَ لِسِمْعَانَ». 35 فَأَخْبَرَاهُمْ بِمَا حَدَثَ فِي الطَّرِيقِ، وَكَيْفَ عَرَفَا الرَّبَّ عِنْدَ كَسْرِ الْخُبْزِ.

يسوع يظهر للتلاميذ

36 وَفِيمَا هُمَا يَتَكَلَّمَانِ بِذَلِكَ، وَقَفَ يَسُوعُ نَفْسُهُ فِي وَسَطِهِمْ، وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «سَلامٌ لَكُمْ!» 37 وَلكِنَّهُمْ، لِذُعْرِهِمْ وَخَوْفِهِمْ، تَوَهَّمُوا أَنَّهُمْ يَرَوْنَ شَبَحاً. 38 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «مَا بَالُكُمْ مُضْطَرِبِينَ؟ وَلِمَاذَا تَنْبَعِثُ الشُّكُوكُ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ؟ 39 انْظُرُوا يَدَيَّ وَقَدَمَيَّ، فَأَنَا هُوَ بِنَفْسِي. الْمِسُونِي وَتَحَقَّقُوا، فَإِنَّ الشَّبَحَ لَيْسَ لَهُ لَحْمٌ وَعِظَامٌ كَمَا تَرَوْنَ لِي». 40 وَإِذْ قَالَ ذَلِكَ، أَرَاهُمْ يَدَيْهِ وَقَدَمَيْهِ. 41 وَإِذْ مَازَالُوا غَيْرَ مُصَدِّقِينَ مِنَ الْفَرَحِ وَمُتَعَجِّبِينَ، قَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَعِنْدَكُمْ هُنَا مَا يُؤْكَلُ؟» 42 فَنَاوَلُوهُ قِطْعَةَ سَمَكٍ مَشْوِيٍّ. 43 فَأَخَذَهَا أَمَامَهُمْ وَأَكَلَ.

44 ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُمْ: «هَذَا هُوَ الكَلامُ الَّذِي كَلَّمْتُكُمْ بِهِ وَأَنَا مَازِلْتُ بَيْنَكُمْ: أَنَّهُ لابُدَّ أَنْ يَتِمَّ كُلُّ مَا كُتِبَ عَنِّي فِي شَرِيعَةِ مُوسَى وَكُتُبِ الأَنْبِيَاءِ وَالْمَزَامِيرِ». 45 ثُمَّ فَتَحَ أَذْهَانَهُمْ لِيَفْهَمُوا الْكُتُبَ، 46 وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «هكَذَا قَدْ كُتِبَ، وَهكَذَا كَانَ لابُدَّ أَنْ يَتَأَلَّمَ الْمَسِيحُ وَيَقُومَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَمْوَاتِ فِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ، 47 وَأَنْ يُبَشَّرَ بِاسْمِهِ بِالتَّوْبَةِ وَغُفْرَانِ الْخَطَايَا فِي جَمِيعِ الأُمَمِ انْطِلاقاً مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ. 48 وَأَنْتُمْ شُهُودٌ عَلَى هذِهِ الأُمُورِ. 49 وَهَا أَنَا سَأُرْسِلُ إِلَيْكُمْ مَا وَعَدَ بِهِ أَبِي. وَلَكِنْ أَقِيمُوا فِي الْمَدِينَةِ حَتَّى تُلْبَسُوا الْقُوَّةَ مِنَ الأَعَالِي!»

الصعود

50 ثُمَّ اقْتَادَهُمْ إِلَى خَارِجِ الْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى بَيْتِ عَنْيَا. وَبَارَكَهُمْ رَافِعاً يَدَيْهِ. 51 وَبَيْنَمَا كَانَ يُبَارِكُهُمْ، انْفَصَلَ عَنْهُمْ وَأُصْعِدَ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ 52 فَسَجَدُوا لَهُ، ثُمَّ رَجَعُوا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ بِفَرَحٍ عَظِيمٍ، 53 وَكَانُوا يَذْهَبُونَ دَائِماً إِلَى الْهَيْكَلِ، حَيْثُ يُسَبِّحُونَ اللهَ وَيُبَارِكُونَهُ.

23 And the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate.

And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this fellow perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying that he himself is Christ a King.

And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest it.

Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people, I find no fault in this man.

And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place.

When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilaean.

And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem at that time.

And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he was desirous to see him of a long season, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.

Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.

10 And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.

11 And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked him, and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.

12 And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between themselves.

13 And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,

14 Said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth the people: and, behold, I, having examined him before you, have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him:

15 No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing worthy of death is done unto him.

16 I will therefore chastise him, and release him.

17 (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)

18 And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas:

19 (Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison.)

20 Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake again to them.

21 But they cried, saying, Crucify him, crucify him.

22 And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath he done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him, and let him go.

23 And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified. And the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed.

24 And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.

25 And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was cast into prison, whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus to their will.

26 And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear it after Jesus.

27 And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him.

28 But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.

29 For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck.

30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.

31 For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?

32 And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be put to death.

33 And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.

34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

35 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God.

36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar,

37 And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.

38 And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, This Is The King Of The Jews.

39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.

40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?

41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.

42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.

43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.

44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.

45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.

46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.

47 Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.

48 And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.

49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.

50 And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counsellor; and he was a good man, and a just:

51 (The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the kingdom of God.

52 This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.

53 And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid.

54 And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on.

55 And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid.

56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment.

24 Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.

And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.

And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:

And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?

He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,

Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.

And they remembered his words,

And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.

10 It was Mary Magdalene and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles.

11 And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.

12 Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.

13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.

14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened.

15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.

16 But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.

17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?

18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?

19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:

20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.

21 But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.

22 Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;

23 And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.

24 And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.

25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:

26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?

27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.

29 But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.

30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.

31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?

33 And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,

34 Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.

35 And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.

36 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.

38 And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?

39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.

40 And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet.

41 And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?

42 And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.

43 And he took it, and did eat before them.

44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.

45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,

46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:

47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

48 And ye are witnesses of these things.

49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.

50 And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.

51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.

52 And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:

53 And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.

23 Then the whole assembly rose and led him off to Pilate.(A) And they began to accuse him, saying, “We have found this man subverting our nation.(B) He opposes payment of taxes to Caesar(C) and claims to be Messiah, a king.”(D)

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

“You have said so,” Jesus replied.

Then Pilate announced to the chief priests and the crowd, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”(E)

But they insisted, “He stirs up the people all over Judea by his teaching. He started in Galilee(F) and has come all the way here.”

On hearing this, Pilate asked if the man was a Galilean.(G) When he learned that Jesus was under Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod,(H) who was also in Jerusalem at that time.

When Herod saw Jesus, he was greatly pleased, because for a long time he had been wanting to see him.(I) From what he had heard about him, he hoped to see him perform a sign of some sort. He plied him with many questions, but Jesus gave him no answer.(J) 10 The chief priests and the teachers of the law were standing there, vehemently accusing him. 11 Then Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked him. Dressing him in an elegant robe,(K) they sent him back to Pilate. 12 That day Herod and Pilate became friends(L)—before this they had been enemies.

13 Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers and the people, 14 and said to them, “You brought me this man as one who was inciting the people to rebellion. I have examined him in your presence and have found no basis for your charges against him.(M) 15 Neither has Herod, for he sent him back to us; as you can see, he has done nothing to deserve death. 16 Therefore, I will punish him(N) and then release him.” [17] [a]

18 But the whole crowd shouted, “Away with this man! Release Barabbas to us!”(O) 19 (Barabbas had been thrown into prison for an insurrection in the city, and for murder.)

20 Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate appealed to them again. 21 But they kept shouting, “Crucify him! Crucify him!”

22 For the third time he spoke to them: “Why? What crime has this man committed? I have found in him no grounds for the death penalty. Therefore I will have him punished and then release him.”(P)

23 But with loud shouts they insistently demanded that he be crucified, and their shouts prevailed. 24 So Pilate decided to grant their demand. 25 He released the man who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, the one they asked for, and surrendered Jesus to their will.

The Crucifixion of Jesus(Q)

26 As the soldiers led him away, they seized Simon from Cyrene,(R) who was on his way in from the country, and put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus.(S) 27 A large number of people followed him, including women who mourned and wailed(T) for him. 28 Jesus turned and said to them, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me; weep for yourselves and for your children.(U) 29 For the time will come when you will say, ‘Blessed are the childless women, the wombs that never bore and the breasts that never nursed!’(V) 30 Then

“‘they will say to the mountains, “Fall on us!”
    and to the hills, “Cover us!”’[b](W)

31 For if people do these things when the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”(X)

32 Two other men, both criminals, were also led out with him to be executed.(Y) 33 When they came to the place called the Skull, they crucified him there, along with the criminals—one on his right, the other on his left. 34 Jesus said, “Father,(Z) forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.”[c](AA) And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.(AB)

35 The people stood watching, and the rulers even sneered at him.(AC) They said, “He saved others; let him save himself if he is God’s Messiah, the Chosen One.”(AD)

36 The soldiers also came up and mocked him.(AE) They offered him wine vinegar(AF) 37 and said, “If you are the king of the Jews,(AG) save yourself.”

38 There was a written notice above him, which read: this is the king of the jews.(AH)

39 One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: “Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself and us!”(AI)

40 But the other criminal rebuked him. “Don’t you fear God,” he said, “since you are under the same sentence? 41 We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.”(AJ)

42 Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.[d](AK)

43 Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”(AL)

The Death of Jesus(AM)

44 It was now about noon, and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon,(AN) 45 for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple(AO) was torn in two.(AP) 46 Jesus called out with a loud voice,(AQ) “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.”[e](AR) When he had said this, he breathed his last.(AS)

47 The centurion, seeing what had happened, praised God(AT) and said, “Surely this was a righteous man.” 48 When all the people who had gathered to witness this sight saw what took place, they beat their breasts(AU) and went away. 49 But all those who knew him, including the women who had followed him from Galilee,(AV) stood at a distance,(AW) watching these things.

The Burial of Jesus(AX)

50 Now there was a man named Joseph, a member of the Council, a good and upright man, 51 who had not consented to their decision and action. He came from the Judean town of Arimathea, and he himself was waiting for the kingdom of God.(AY) 52 Going to Pilate, he asked for Jesus’ body. 53 Then he took it down, wrapped it in linen cloth and placed it in a tomb cut in the rock, one in which no one had yet been laid. 54 It was Preparation Day,(AZ) and the Sabbath was about to begin.

55 The women who had come with Jesus from Galilee(BA) followed Joseph and saw the tomb and how his body was laid in it. 56 Then they went home and prepared spices and perfumes.(BB) But they rested on the Sabbath in obedience to the commandment.(BC)

Jesus Has Risen(BD)

24 On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared(BE) and went to the tomb. They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.(BF) While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning(BG) stood beside them. In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee:(BH) ‘The Son of Man(BI) must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’(BJ) Then they remembered his words.(BK)

When they came back from the tomb, they told all these things to the Eleven and to all the others. 10 It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the others with them(BL) who told this to the apostles.(BM) 11 But they did not believe(BN) the women, because their words seemed to them like nonsense. 12 Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb. Bending over, he saw the strips of linen lying by themselves,(BO) and he went away,(BP) wondering to himself what had happened.

On the Road to Emmaus

13 Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles[f] from Jerusalem.(BQ) 14 They were talking with each other about everything that had happened. 15 As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them;(BR) 16 but they were kept from recognizing him.(BS)

17 He asked them, “What are you discussing together as you walk along?”

They stood still, their faces downcast. 18 One of them, named Cleopas,(BT) asked him, “Are you the only one visiting Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?”

19 “What things?” he asked.

“About Jesus of Nazareth,”(BU) they replied. “He was a prophet,(BV) powerful in word and deed before God and all the people. 20 The chief priests and our rulers(BW) handed him over to be sentenced to death, and they crucified him; 21 but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel.(BX) And what is more, it is the third day(BY) since all this took place. 22 In addition, some of our women amazed us.(BZ) They went to the tomb early this morning 23 but didn’t find his body. They came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels, who said he was alive. 24 Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but they did not see Jesus.”(CA)

25 He said to them, “How foolish you are, and how slow to believe all that the prophets have spoken! 26 Did not the Messiah have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?”(CB) 27 And beginning with Moses(CC) and all the Prophets,(CD) he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.(CE)

28 As they approached the village to which they were going, Jesus continued on as if he were going farther. 29 But they urged him strongly, “Stay with us, for it is nearly evening; the day is almost over.” So he went in to stay with them.

30 When he was at the table with them, he took bread, gave thanks, broke it(CF) and began to give it to them. 31 Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him,(CG) and he disappeared from their sight. 32 They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us(CH) while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures(CI) to us?”

33 They got up and returned at once to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, assembled together 34 and saying, “It is true! The Lord(CJ) has risen and has appeared to Simon.”(CK) 35 Then the two told what had happened on the way, and how Jesus was recognized by them when he broke the bread.(CL)

Jesus Appears to the Disciples

36 While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.”(CM)

37 They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost.(CN) 38 He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? 39 Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see;(CO) a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”

40 When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet. 41 And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?” 42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish, 43 and he took it and ate it in their presence.(CP)

44 He said to them, “This is what I told you while I was still with you:(CQ) Everything must be fulfilled(CR) that is written about me in the Law of Moses,(CS) the Prophets(CT) and the Psalms.”(CU)

45 Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. 46 He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer(CV) and rise from the dead on the third day,(CW) 47 and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name(CX) to all nations,(CY) beginning at Jerusalem.(CZ) 48 You are witnesses(DA) of these things. 49 I am going to send you what my Father has promised;(DB) but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”

The Ascension of Jesus

50 When he had led them out to the vicinity of Bethany,(DC) he lifted up his hands and blessed them. 51 While he was blessing them, he left them and was taken up into heaven.(DD) 52 Then they worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy. 53 And they stayed continually at the temple,(DE) praising God.

23 فَقَامَتْ جَمَاعَتُهُمْ كُلُّهَا، وَسَاقُوا يَسُوعَ إِلَى بِيلاطُسَ. وَبَدَأُوا يَتَّهِمُونَهُ قَائِلِينَ: «تَبَيَّنَ لَنَا أَنَّ هَذَا يُضَلِّلُ أُمَّتَنَا، وَيَمْنَعُ أَنْ تُدْفَعَ الْجِزْيَةُ لِلْقَيْصَرِ وَيَدَّعِي أَنَّهُ الْمَسِيحُ الْمَلِكُ!» فَسَأَلَهُ بِيلاطُسُ: «أَأَنْتَ مَلِكُ الْيَهُودِ؟» فَأَجَابَهُ: «أَنْتَ قُلْتَ!» فَقَالَ بِيلاطُسُ لِرُؤَسَاءِ الْكَهَنَةِ وَالْجُمُوعِ: «لا أَجِدُ ذَنْباً فِي هَذَا الإِنْسَانِ!» وَلَكِنَّهُمْ أَلَحُّوا قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّهُ يُثِيرُ الشَّعْبَ، مُعَلِّماً فِي الْيَهُودِيَّةِ كُلِّهَا، ابْتِدَاءً مِنَ الْجَلِيلِ حَتَّى هُنَا!» فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ بِيلاطُسُ ذِكْرَ الْجَلِيلِ، اسْتَفْسَرَ: «هَلِ الرَّجُلُ مِنَ الْجَلِيلِ؟». وَإِذْ عَلِمَ أَنَّهُ تَابِعٌ لِسُلْطَةِ هِيرُودُسَ، أَحَالَهُ عَلَى هِيرُودُسَ، إِذْ كَانَ هُوَ أَيْضاً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ فِي تِلْكَ الأَيَّامِ.

وَلَمَّا رَأَى هِيرُودُسُ يَسُوعَ، فَرِحَ جِدّاً، لأَنَّهُ كَانَ يَتَمَنَّى مِنْ زَمَانٍ طَوِيلٍ أَنْ يَرَاهُ بِسَبَبِ سَمَاعِهِ الْكَثِيرَ عَنْهُ، وَيَرْجُو أَنْ يَرَى آيَةً تُجْرَى عَلَى يَدِهِ. فَسَأَلَهُ فِي قَضَايَا كَثِيرَةٍ، أَمَّا هُوَ فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ عَنْ شَيْءٍ. 10 وَوَقَفَ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ وَالْكَتَبَةُ يَتَّهِمُونَهُ بِعُنْفٍ. 11 فَاحْتَقَرَهُ هِيرُودُسُ وَجُنُودُهُ، وَسَخِرَ مِنْهُ، إِذْ أَلْبَسَهُ ثَوْباً بَرَّاقاً وَرَدَّهُ إِلَى بِيلاطُسَ. 12 وَصَارَ بِيلاطُسُ وَهِيرُودُسُ صَدِيقَيْنِ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، وَقَدْ كَانَتْ بَيْنَهُمَا عَدَاوَةٌ سَابِقَةٌ.

13 فَدَعَا بِيلاطُسُ رُؤَسَاءَ الْكَهَنَةِ وَالْقُوَّادَ وَالشَّعْبَ. 14 وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَحْضَرْتُمْ إِلَيَّ هَذَا الإِنْسَانَ عَلَى أَنَّهُ يُضَلِّلُ الشَّعْبَ. وَهَا أَنَا، بَعْدَمَا فَحَصْتُ الأَمْرَ أَمَامَكُمْ، لَمْ أَجِدْ فِي هَذَا الإِنْسَانِ أَيَّ ذَنْبٍ مِمَّا تَتَّهِمُونَهُ بِهِ، 15 وَلا وَجَدَ هِيرُودُسُ أَيْضاً، إِذْ رَدَّهُ إِلَيْنَا. وَهَا إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ شَيْئاً يَسْتَوْجِبُ الْمَوْتَ. 16 فَسَأَجْلِدُهُ إِذَنْ وَأُطْلِقُهُ». 17 وَكَانَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُطْلِقَ لَهُمْ فِي كُلِّ عِيدٍ سَجِيناً وَاحِداً. 18 وَلَكِنَّهُمْ صَرَخُوا بِجُمْلَتِهِمْ: «اقْتُلْ هَذَا، وَأَطْلِقْ لَنَا بَارَابَاسَ!» 19 وَكَانَ ذَاكَ قَدْ أُلْقِيَ فِي السِّجْنِ بِسَبَبِ فِتْنَةٍ حَدَثَتْ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ وَبِسَبَبِ قَتْلٍ. 20 فَخَاطَبَهُمْ بِيلاطُسُ ثَانِيَةً وَهُوَ رَاغِبٌ فِي إِطْلاقِ يَسُوعَ. 21 فَرَدُّوا صَارِخِينَ: «اصْلِبْهُ! اصْلِبْهُ!» 22 فَسَأَلَهُمْ ثَالِثَةً: «فَأَيَّ شَرٍّ فَعَلَ هَذَا؟ لَمْ أَجِدْ فِيهِ ذَنْباً عُقُوبَتُهُ الْمَوْتُ. فَسَأَجْلِدُهُ إِذَنْ وَأُطْلِقُهُ!» 23 فَأَخَذُوا يُلِحُّونَ صَارِخِينَ بِأَصْوَاتٍ عَالِيَةٍ، طَالِبِينَ أَنْ يُصْلَبَ! فَتَغَلَّبَتْ أَصْوَاتُهُمْ، 24 وَحَكَمَ بِيلاطُسُ أَنْ يُنَفَّذَ طَلَبُهُمْ. 25 فَأَطْلَقَ الَّذِي كَانَ قَدْ أُلْقِيَ فِي السِّجْنِ بِسَبَبِ الْفِتْنَةِ وَالْقَتْلِ، ذَاكَ الَّذِي طَلَبُوا إِطْلاقَهُ. وَأَمَّا يَسُوعُ فَسَلَّمَهُ بِيلاطُسُ إِلَى إِرَادَتِهِمْ.

الصلب

26 وَفِيمَا هُمْ يَسُوقُونَهُ (إِلَى الصَّلْبِ)، أَمْسَكُوا رَجُلاً مِنَ الْقَيْرَوَانِ اسْمُهُ سِمْعَانُ، كَانَ رَاجِعاً مِنَ الْحَقْلِ، وَوَضَعُوا عَلَيْهِ الصَّلِيبَ لِيَحْمِلَهُ خَلْفَ يَسُوعَ. 27 وَقَدْ تَبِعَهُ جَمْعٌ كَبِيرٌ مِنَ الشَّعْبِ وَمِنْ نِسَاءٍ كُنَّ يُوَلْوِلْنَ وَيَنْدُبْنَهُ. 28 فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيْهِنَّ يَسُوعُ، وَقَالَ: «يَا بَنَاتِ أُورُشَلِيمَ، لَا تَبْكِينَ عَلَيِّ، بَلِ ابْكِينَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِكُنَّ وَعَلَى أَوْلادِكُنَّ! 29 فَهَا إِنَّ أَيَّاماً سَتَأْتِي فِيهَا يَقُولُ النَّاسُ: طُوبَى لِلْعَوَاقِرِ اللَّوَاتِي مَا حَمَلَتْ بُطُونُهُنَّ وَلا أَرْضَعَتْ أَثْدَاؤُهُنَّ! 30 عِنْدَئِذٍ يَقُولُونَ لِلْجِبَالِ: اسْقُطِي عَلَيْنَا، وَلِلتِّلالِ: غَطِّينَا! 31 فَإِنْ كَانُوا قَدْ فَعَلُوا هَذَا بِالْغُصْنِ الأَخْضَرِ، فَمَاذَا يَجْرِي لِلْيَابِسِ؟» 32 وَسِيقَ إِلَى الْقَتْلِ مَعَ يَسُوعَ أَيْضاً اثْنَانِ مِنَ الْمُجْرِمِينَ.

33 وَلَمَّا وَصَلُوا إِلَى الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي يُدْعَى الْجُمْجُمَةَ، صَلَبُوهُ هُنَاكَ مَعَ الْمُجْرِمَيْنِ، وَاحِدٌ عَنِ الْيَمِينِ وَالآخَرُ عَنِ اليَسَارِ. 34 وَقَالَ يَسُوعُ: «يَا أَبِي، اغْفِرْ لَهُمْ، لأَنَّهُمْ لَا يَدْرُونَ مَا يَفْعَلُونَ!» وَاقْتَسَمُوا ثِيَابَهُ مُقْتَرِعِينَ عَلَيْهَا.

35 وَوَقَفَ الشَّعْبُ هُنَاكَ يُرَاقِبُونَهُ، وَكَذلِكَ الرُّؤَسَاءُ يَتَهَكَّمُونَ قَائِلِينَ: «خَلَّصَ آخَرِينَ! فَلْيُخَلِّصْ نَفْسَهُ إِنْ كَانَ هُوَ الْمَسِيحَ الْمُخْتَارَ عِنْدَ اللهِ!» 36 وَسَخِرَ مِنْهُ الْجُنُودُ أَيْضاً، فَكَانُوا يَتَقَدَّمُونَ إِلَيْهِ وَيُقَدِّمُونَ لَهُ خَلًّا، 37 قَائِلِينَ: «إِنْ كُنْتَ أَنْتَ مَلِكَ الْيَهُودِ، فَخَلِّصْ نَفْسَكَ» 38 وَكَانَتْ فَوْقَهُ لافِتَةٌ كُتِبَ فِيهَا: «هَذَا هُوَ مَلِكُ الْيَهُودِ». 39 وَأَخَذَ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الْمُجْرِمَيْنِ الْمَصْلُوبَيْنِ يُجَدِّفُ عَلَيْهِ فَيَقُولُ: «أَلَسْتَ أَنْتَ الْمَسِيحَ؟ إِذَنْ خَلِّصْ نَفْسَكَ وَخَلِّصْنَا!» 40 وَلكِنَّ الآخَرَ كَلَّمَهُ زَاجِراً فَقَالَ: «أَحَتَّى أَنْتَ لَا تَخَافُ اللهَ، وَأَنْتَ تُعَانِي الْعُقُوبَةَ نَفْسَهَا؟ 41 أَمَّا نَحْنُ فَعُقُوبَتُنَا عَادِلَةٌ لأَنَّنَا نَنَالُ الْجَزَاءَ الْعَادِلَ لِقَاءَ مَا فَعَلْنَا. وَأَمَّا هَذَا الإِنْسَانُ، فَلَمْ يَفْعَلُ شَيْئاً فِي غَيْرِ مَحَلِّهِ!» 42 ثُمَّ قَالَ: «يَا يَسُوعُ، اذْكُرْنِي عِنْدَمَا تَجِيءُ فِي مَلَكُوتِكَ!» 43 فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكَ: الْيَوْمَ سَتَكُونُ مَعِي فِي الْفِرْدَوْسِ!»

موت يسوع

44 وَنَحْوَ السَّاعَةِ السَّادِسَةِ (الثَّانِيَةَ عَشْرَةَ ظُهْراً)، حَلَّ الظَّلامُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا حَتَّى السَّاعَةِ التَّاسِعَةِ (الثَّالِثَةِ بَعْدَ الظُّهْرِ). 45 وَأَظْلَمَتِ الشَّمْسُ، وَانْشَطَرَ سِتَارُ الْهَيْكَلِ مِنَ الوَسَطِ. 46 وَقَالَ يَسُوعُ صَارِخاً بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ: «يَا أَبِي، فِي يَدَيْكَ أَسْتَوْدِعُ رُوحِي!» وَإِذْ قَالَ هَذَا، أَسْلَمَ الرُّوحَ. 47 فَلَمَّا رَأَى قَائِدُ الْمِئَةِ مَا حَدَثَ، مَجَّدَ اللهَ قَائِلاً: «بِالْحَقِيقَةِ كَانَ هَذَا الإِنْسَانُ بَارّاً». 48 كَذلِكَ الْجُمُوعُ الَّذِينَ احْتَشَدُوا لِيُرَاقِبُوا مَشْهَدَ الصَّلْبِ، لَمَّا رَأَوْا مَا حَدَثَ، رَجَعُوا قَارِعِينَ الصُّدُورَ. 49 أَمَّا جَمِيعُ مَعَارِفِهِ، بِمَنْ فِيهِمِ النِّسَاءُ اللَّوَاتِي تَبِعْنَهُ مِنَ الْجَلِيلِ، فَقَدْ كَانُوا وَاقِفِينَ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ يُرَاقِبُونَ هذِهِ الأُمُورَ.

دفن يسوع

50 وَكَانَ فِي الْمَجْلِسِ الأَعْلَى إِنْسَانٌ اسْمُهُ يُوسُفُ، وَهُوَ إِنْسَانٌ صَالِحٌ وَتَقِيٌّ 51 لَمْ يَكُنْ مُوَافِقاً عَلَى قَرَارِ أَعْضَاءِ الْمَجْلِسِ وَفِعْلَتِهِمْ، وَهُوَ مِنَ الرَّامَةِ إِحْدَى مُدُنِ الْيَهُودِ، وَكَانَ مِنْ مُنْتَظِرِي مَلَكُوتِ اللهِ. 52 فَإِذَا بِهِ قَدْ تَقَدَّمَ إِلَى بِيلاطُسَ وَطَلَبَ جُثْمَانَ يَسُوعَ. 53 ثُمَّ أَنْزَلَهُ (مِنْ عَلَى الصَّلِيبِ) وَكَفَّنَهُ بِكَتَّانِ، وَوَضَعَهُ فِي قَبْرٍ مَنْحُوتٍ (فِي الصَّخْرِ) لَمْ يُدْفَنْ فِيهِ أَحَدٌ مِنْ قَبْلُ. 54 وَكَانَ ذَلِكَ النَّهَارُ يَوْمَ الإِعْدَادِ لِلسَّبْتِ الَّذِي كَانَ قَدْ بَدَأَ يَقْتَرِبُ. 55 وَتَبِعَتْ يُوسُفَ النِّسَاءُ اللَّوَاتِي خَرَجْنَ مِنَ الْجَلِيلِ مَعَ يَسُوعَ، فَرَأَيْنَ الْقَبْرَ وَكَيْفَ وُضِعَ جُثْمَانُهُ. 56 ثُمَّ رَجَعْنَ وَهَيَّأْنَ حَنُوطاً وَطِيباً، وَاسْتَرَحْنَ يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ حَسَبَ الْوَصِيَّةِ.

القيامة

24 وَلكِنْ فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَوَّلِ مِنَ الأُسْبُوعِ، بَاكِراً جِدّاً، جِئْنَ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ حَامِلاتٍ الْحَنُوطَ الَّذِي هَيَّأْنَهُ. فَوَجَدْنَ الْحَجَرَ قَدْ دُحْرِجَ عَنِ الْقَبْرِ. وَلكِنْ لَمَّا دَخَلْنَ لَمْ يَجِدْنَ جُثْمَانَ الرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ. وَفِيمَا هُنَّ مُتَحَيِّرَاتٌ فِي ذلِكَ، إِذَا رَجُلانِ بِثِيَابٍ بَرَّاقَةٍ قَدْ وَقَفَا بِجَانِبِهِنَّ. فَتَمَلَّكَهُنَّ الْخَوْفُ وَنَكَّسْنَ وُجُوهَهُنَّ إِلَى الأَرْضِ. عِنْدَئِذٍ قَالَ لَهُنَّ الرَّجُلانِ: «لِمَاذَا تَبْحَثْنَ عَنِ الْحَيِّ بَيْنَ الأَمْوَاتِ؟ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ هُنَا، وَلَكِنَّهُ قَدْ قَامَ! اذْكُرْنَ مَا كَلَّمَكُمْ بِهِ إِذْ كَانَ بَعْدُ فِي الْجَلِيلِ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ ابْنَ الإِنْسَانِ لابُدَّ أَنْ يُسَلَّمَ إِلَى أَيْدِي أُنَاسٍ خَاطِئِينَ، فَيُصْلَبَ، وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ يَقُومُ». فَتَذَكَّرْنَ كَلامَهُ. وَإِذْ رَجَعْنَ مِنَ الْقَبْرِ، أَخْبَرْنَ الأَحَدَ عَشَرَ وَالآخَرِينَ كُلَّهُمْ بِهذِهِ الأُمُورِ جَمِيعاً. 10 وَكَانَتِ اللَّوَاتِي أَخْبَرْنَ الرُّسُلَ بِذلِكَ هُنَّ مَرْيَمُ الْمَجْدَلِيَّةُ، وَيُوَنَّا، وَمَرْيَمُ أُمُّ يَعْقُوبَ، وَالأُخْرَيَاتُ اللَّوَاتِي ذَهَبْنَ مَعَهُنَّ. 11 فَبَدَا كَلامُهُنَّ فِي نَظَرِ الرُّسُلِ كَأَنَّهُ هَذَيَانٌ، وَلَمْ يُصَدِّقُوهُنَّ. 12 إِلّا أَنَّ بُطْرُسَ قَامَ وَرَكَضَ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ، وَإِذِ انْحَنَى رَأَى الأَكْفَانَ الْمَلْفُوفَةَ وَحْدَهَا، ثُمَّ مَضَى مُتَعَجِّباً مِمَّا حَدَثَ.

في الطريق إلى عمواس

13 وَكَانَ اثْنَانِ مِنْهُمْ مُنْطَلِقَيْنِ فِي ذلِكَ الْيَوْمِ إِلَى قَرْيَةٍ تَبْعُدُ سِتِّينَ غَلْوَةً (نَحْوَ سَبْعَةِ أَمْيَالٍ) عَنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ، اسْمُهَا عِمْوَاسُ. 14 وَكَانَا يَتَحَدَّثَانِ عَنْ جَمِيعِ مَا حَدَثَ 15 وَبَيْنَمَا هُمَا يَتَحَدَّثَانِ وَيَتَبَاحَثَانِ، إِذَا يَسُوعُ نَفْسُهُ قَدِ اقْتَرَبَ إِلَيْهِمَا وَسَارَ مَعَهُمَا. 16 وَلكِنَّ أَعْيُنَهُمَا حُجِبَتْ عَنْ مَعْرِفَتِهِ. 17 وَسَأَلَهُمَا: «أَيُّ حَدِيثٍ يَجْرِي بَيْنَكُمَا وَأَنْتُمَا سَائِرَانِ؟» فَتَوَقَّفَا عَابِسَيْنِ. 18 وَأَجَابَ أَحَدُهُمَا، وَاسْمُهُ كَلْيُوبَاسُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَأَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ الْغَرِيبُ النَّازِلُ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَلا تَعْلَمُ بِمَا حَدَثَ فِيهَا فِي هذِهِ الأَيَّامِ؟» 19 فَقَالَ لَهُمَا: «مَاذَا حَدَثَ؟» فَقَالا: «مَا حَدَثَ لِيَسُوعَ النَّاصِرِيِّ الَّذِي كَانَ نَبِيًّا مُقْتَدِراً فِي الْفِعْلِ وَالْقَوْلِ أَمَامَ اللهِ وَالشَّعْبِ كُلِّهِ، 20 وَكَيْفَ سَلَّمَهُ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ وَحُكَّامُنَا إِلَى عُقُوبَةِ الْمَوْتِ وَصَلَبُوهُ. 21 وَلَكِنَّنَا كُنَّا نَرْجُو أَنَّهُ الْمُوشِكُ أَنْ يَفْدِيَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَمَعَ هَذَا كُلِّهِ، فَالْيَوْمَ هُوَ الْيَوْمُ الثَّالِثُ مُنْذُ حُدُوثِ ذلِكَ. 22 عَلَى أَنَّ بَعْضَ النِّسَاءِ مِنَّا أَذْهَلْنَنَا، إِذْ قَصَدْنَ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ بَاكِراً 23 وَلَمْ يَجِدْنَ جُثْمَانَهُ، فَرَجَعْنَ وَقُلْنَ لَنَا إِنَّهُنَّ شَاهَدْنَ رُؤْيَا: مَلاكَيْنِ يَقُولانِ إِنَّهُ حَيٌّ. 24 فَذَهَبَ بَعْضُ الَّذِينَ مَعَنَا إِلَى الْقَبْرِ فَوَجَدُوا الأَمْرَ صَحِيحاً عَلَى حَدِّ مَا قَالَتِ النِّسَاءُ أَيْضاً، وَأَمَّا هُوَ فَلَمْ يَرَوْهُ!» 25 فَقَالَ لَهُمَا: «يَا قَلِيلَيِ الْفَهْمِ وَبَطِيئَيِ الْقَلْبِ فِي الإِيمَانِ بِجَمِيعِ مَا تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ الأَنْبِيَاءُ! 26 أَمَا كَانَ لابُدَّ أَنْ يُعَانِيَ الْمَسِيحُ هذِهِ الآلامَ ثُمَّ يَدْخُلَ إِلَى مَجْدِهِ؟» 27 ثُمَّ أَخَذَ يُفَسِّرُ لَهُمَا، مُنْطَلِقاً مِنْ مُوسَى وَمِنَ الأَنْبِيَاءِ جَمِيعاً، مَا وَرَدَ عَنْهُ فِي جَمِيعِ الْكُتُبِ.

28 ثُمَّ اقْتَرَبُوا مِنَ الْقَرْيَةِ الَّتِي كَانَ التِّلْمِيذَانِ يَقْصِدَانِهَا، وَتَظَاهَرَ هُوَ بِأَنَّهُ ذَاهِبٌ إِلَى مَكَانٍ أَبْعَدَ. 29 فَأَلَحَّا عَلَيْهِ قَائِلَيْنِ: «انْزِلْ عِنْدَنَا، فَقَدْ مَالَ النَّهَارُ وَاقْتَرَبَ الْمَسَاءُ». فَدَخَلَ لِيَنْزِلَ عِنْدَهُمَا. 30 وَلَمَّا اتَّكَأَ مَعَهُمَا، أَخَذَ الْخُبْزَ، وَبَارَكَ، وَكَسَّرَ، وَأَعْطَاهُمَا. 31 فَانْفَتَحَتْ أَعْيُنُهُمَا وَعَرَفَاهُ. ثُمَّ اخْتَفَى عَنْهُمَا. 32 فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِلآخَرِ: «أَمَا كَانَ قَلْبُنَا يَلْتَهِبُ فِي صُدُورِنَا فِيمَا كَانَ يُحَدِّثُنَا فِي الطَّرِيقِ وَيَشْرَحُ لَنَا الْكُتُبَ؟» 33 ثُمَّ قَامَا فِي تِلْكَ السَّاعَةِ عَيْنِهَا، وَرَجَعَا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَوَجَدَا الأَحَدَ عَشَرَ وَالَّذِينَ مَعَهُمْ مُجْتَمِعِينَ، 34 وَكَانُوا يَقُولُونُ: «حَقّاً إِنَّ الرَّبَّ قَامَ، وَقَدْ ظَهَرَ لِسِمْعَانَ». 35 فَأَخْبَرَاهُمْ بِمَا حَدَثَ فِي الطَّرِيقِ، وَكَيْفَ عَرَفَا الرَّبَّ عِنْدَ كَسْرِ الْخُبْزِ.

يسوع يظهر للتلاميذ

36 وَفِيمَا هُمَا يَتَكَلَّمَانِ بِذَلِكَ، وَقَفَ يَسُوعُ نَفْسُهُ فِي وَسَطِهِمْ، وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «سَلامٌ لَكُمْ!» 37 وَلكِنَّهُمْ، لِذُعْرِهِمْ وَخَوْفِهِمْ، تَوَهَّمُوا أَنَّهُمْ يَرَوْنَ شَبَحاً. 38 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «مَا بَالُكُمْ مُضْطَرِبِينَ؟ وَلِمَاذَا تَنْبَعِثُ الشُّكُوكُ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ؟ 39 انْظُرُوا يَدَيَّ وَقَدَمَيَّ، فَأَنَا هُوَ بِنَفْسِي. الْمِسُونِي وَتَحَقَّقُوا، فَإِنَّ الشَّبَحَ لَيْسَ لَهُ لَحْمٌ وَعِظَامٌ كَمَا تَرَوْنَ لِي». 40 وَإِذْ قَالَ ذَلِكَ، أَرَاهُمْ يَدَيْهِ وَقَدَمَيْهِ. 41 وَإِذْ مَازَالُوا غَيْرَ مُصَدِّقِينَ مِنَ الْفَرَحِ وَمُتَعَجِّبِينَ، قَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَعِنْدَكُمْ هُنَا مَا يُؤْكَلُ؟» 42 فَنَاوَلُوهُ قِطْعَةَ سَمَكٍ مَشْوِيٍّ. 43 فَأَخَذَهَا أَمَامَهُمْ وَأَكَلَ.

44 ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُمْ: «هَذَا هُوَ الكَلامُ الَّذِي كَلَّمْتُكُمْ بِهِ وَأَنَا مَازِلْتُ بَيْنَكُمْ: أَنَّهُ لابُدَّ أَنْ يَتِمَّ كُلُّ مَا كُتِبَ عَنِّي فِي شَرِيعَةِ مُوسَى وَكُتُبِ الأَنْبِيَاءِ وَالْمَزَامِيرِ». 45 ثُمَّ فَتَحَ أَذْهَانَهُمْ لِيَفْهَمُوا الْكُتُبَ، 46 وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «هكَذَا قَدْ كُتِبَ، وَهكَذَا كَانَ لابُدَّ أَنْ يَتَأَلَّمَ الْمَسِيحُ وَيَقُومَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَمْوَاتِ فِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ، 47 وَأَنْ يُبَشَّرَ بِاسْمِهِ بِالتَّوْبَةِ وَغُفْرَانِ الْخَطَايَا فِي جَمِيعِ الأُمَمِ انْطِلاقاً مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ. 48 وَأَنْتُمْ شُهُودٌ عَلَى هذِهِ الأُمُورِ. 49 وَهَا أَنَا سَأُرْسِلُ إِلَيْكُمْ مَا وَعَدَ بِهِ أَبِي. وَلَكِنْ أَقِيمُوا فِي الْمَدِينَةِ حَتَّى تُلْبَسُوا الْقُوَّةَ مِنَ الأَعَالِي!»

الصعود

50 ثُمَّ اقْتَادَهُمْ إِلَى خَارِجِ الْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى بَيْتِ عَنْيَا. وَبَارَكَهُمْ رَافِعاً يَدَيْهِ. 51 وَبَيْنَمَا كَانَ يُبَارِكُهُمْ، انْفَصَلَ عَنْهُمْ وَأُصْعِدَ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ 52 فَسَجَدُوا لَهُ، ثُمَّ رَجَعُوا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ بِفَرَحٍ عَظِيمٍ، 53 وَكَانُوا يَذْهَبُونَ دَائِماً إِلَى الْهَيْكَلِ، حَيْثُ يُسَبِّحُونَ اللهَ وَيُبَارِكُونَهُ.

23 And the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate.

And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this fellow perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying that he himself is Christ a King.

And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest it.

Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people, I find no fault in this man.

And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place.

When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilaean.

And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem at that time.

And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he was desirous to see him of a long season, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.

Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.

10 And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.

11 And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked him, and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.

12 And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between themselves.

13 And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,

14 Said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth the people: and, behold, I, having examined him before you, have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him:

15 No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing worthy of death is done unto him.

16 I will therefore chastise him, and release him.

17 (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)

18 And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas:

19 (Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison.)

20 Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake again to them.

21 But they cried, saying, Crucify him, crucify him.

22 And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath he done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him, and let him go.

23 And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified. And the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed.

24 And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.

25 And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was cast into prison, whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus to their will.

26 And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear it after Jesus.

27 And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him.

28 But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.

29 For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck.

30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.

31 For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?

32 And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be put to death.

33 And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.

34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

35 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God.

36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar,

37 And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.

38 And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, This Is The King Of The Jews.

39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.

40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?

41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.

42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.

43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.

44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.

45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.

46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.

47 Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.

48 And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.

49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.

50 And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counsellor; and he was a good man, and a just:

51 (The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the kingdom of God.

52 This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.

53 And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid.

54 And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on.

55 And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid.

56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment.

24 Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.

And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.

And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:

And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?

He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,

Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.

And they remembered his words,

And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.

10 It was Mary Magdalene and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles.

11 And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.

12 Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.

13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.

14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened.

15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.

16 But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.

17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?

18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?

19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:

20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.

21 But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.

22 Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;

23 And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.

24 And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.

25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:

26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?

27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.

29 But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.

30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.

31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?

33 And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,

34 Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.

35 And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.

36 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.

38 And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?

39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.

40 And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet.

41 And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?

42 And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.

43 And he took it, and did eat before them.

44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.

45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,

46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:

47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

48 And ye are witnesses of these things.

49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.

50 And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.

51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.

52 And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:

53 And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.

Jesus Sentenced to Be Crucified(A)

19 Then Pilate took Jesus and had him flogged.(B) The soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on his head. They clothed him in a purple robe and went up to him again and again, saying, “Hail, king of the Jews!”(C) And they slapped him in the face.(D)

Once more Pilate came out and said to the Jews gathered there, “Look, I am bringing him out(E) to you to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against him.”(F) When Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe,(G) Pilate said to them, “Here is the man!”

As soon as the chief priests and their officials saw him, they shouted, “Crucify! Crucify!”

But Pilate answered, “You take him and crucify him.(H) As for me, I find no basis for a charge against him.”(I)

The Jewish leaders insisted, “We have a law, and according to that law he must die,(J) because he claimed to be the Son of God.”(K)

When Pilate heard this, he was even more afraid, and he went back inside the palace.(L) “Where do you come from?” he asked Jesus, but Jesus gave him no answer.(M) 10 “Do you refuse to speak to me?” Pilate said. “Don’t you realize I have power either to free you or to crucify you?”

11 Jesus answered, “You would have no power over me if it were not given to you from above.(N) Therefore the one who handed me over to you(O) is guilty of a greater sin.”

12 From then on, Pilate tried to set Jesus free, but the Jewish leaders kept shouting, “If you let this man go, you are no friend of Caesar. Anyone who claims to be a king(P) opposes Caesar.”

13 When Pilate heard this, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judge’s seat(Q) at a place known as the Stone Pavement (which in Aramaic(R) is Gabbatha). 14 It was the day of Preparation(S) of the Passover; it was about noon.(T)

“Here is your king,”(U) Pilate said to the Jews.

15 But they shouted, “Take him away! Take him away! Crucify him!”

“Shall I crucify your king?” Pilate asked.

“We have no king but Caesar,” the chief priests answered.

16 Finally Pilate handed him over to them to be crucified.(V)

The Crucifixion of Jesus(W)

So the soldiers took charge of Jesus. 17 Carrying his own cross,(X) he went out to the place of the Skull(Y) (which in Aramaic(Z) is called Golgotha). 18 There they crucified him, and with him two others(AA)—one on each side and Jesus in the middle.

19 Pilate had a notice prepared and fastened to the cross. It read: jesus of nazareth,(AB) the king of the jews.(AC) 20 Many of the Jews read this sign, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city,(AD) and the sign was written in Aramaic, Latin and Greek. 21 The chief priests of the Jews protested to Pilate, “Do not write ‘The King of the Jews,’ but that this man claimed to be king of the Jews.”(AE)

22 Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”

23 When the soldiers crucified Jesus, they took his clothes, dividing them into four shares, one for each of them, with the undergarment remaining. This garment was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom.

24 “Let’s not tear it,” they said to one another. “Let’s decide by lot who will get it.”

This happened that the scripture might be fulfilled(AF) that said,

“They divided my clothes among them
    and cast lots for my garment.”[a](AG)

So this is what the soldiers did.

25 Near the cross(AH) of Jesus stood his mother,(AI) his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.(AJ) 26 When Jesus saw his mother(AK) there, and the disciple whom he loved(AL) standing nearby, he said to her, “Woman,[b] here is your son,” 27 and to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” From that time on, this disciple took her into his home.

The Death of Jesus(AM)

28 Later, knowing that everything had now been finished,(AN) and so that Scripture would be fulfilled,(AO) Jesus said, “I am thirsty.” 29 A jar of wine vinegar(AP) was there, so they soaked a sponge in it, put the sponge on a stalk of the hyssop plant, and lifted it to Jesus’ lips. 30 When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.”(AQ) With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.

31 Now it was the day of Preparation,(AR) and the next day was to be a special Sabbath. Because the Jewish leaders did not want the bodies left on the crosses(AS) during the Sabbath, they asked Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies taken down. 32 The soldiers therefore came and broke the legs of the first man who had been crucified with Jesus, and then those of the other.(AT)

الحكم على يسوع بالصلب

19 عِنْدَئِذٍ أَمَرَ بِيلاطُسُ بِأَنْ يُؤْخَذَ يَسُوعُ وَيُجْلَدَ. وَجَدَلَ الْجُنُودُ إِكْلِيلاً مِنَ الشَّوْكِ وَضَعُوهُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ، وَأَلْبَسُوهُ رِدَاءَ أُرْجُوَانٍ. وَأَخَذُوا يَتَقَدَّمُونَ إِلَيْهِ وَيَقُولُونَ: «سَلامٌ، يَا مَلِكَ الْيَهُودِ!» وَيَلْطِمُونَهُ.

وَخَرَجَ بِيلاطُسُ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى إِلَى الْجُمْهُورِ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «سَأُخْرِجُهُ إِلَيْكُمْ لِتَرَوْا أَنِّي لَا أَجِدُ فِيهِ ذَنْباً!» فَخَرَجَ يَسُوعُ وَعَلَيْهِ إِكْلِيلُ الشَّوْكِ وَرِدَاءُ الأُرْجُوَانِ. فَقَالَ لَهُمْ بِيلاطُسُ: «هَا هُوَ الإِنْسَانُ!» فَلَمَّا رَآهُ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ وَالْحَرَسُ صَرَخُوا: «اصْلِبْهُ! اصْلِبْهُ!» فَقَالَ لَهُمْ بِيلاطُسُ: «بَلْ خُذُوهُ أَنْتُمْ وَاصْلِبُوهُ، فَإِنِّي لَا أَجِدُ فِيهِ ذَنْباً!» فَأَجَابَهُ الْيَهُودُ: «لَنَا شَرِيعَةٌ. وَبِحَسَبِ شَرِيعَتِنَا يَتَحَتَّمُ عَلَيْهِ الْمَوْتُ، لأَنَّهُ جَعَلَ نَفْسَهُ ابْنَ اللهِ». فَعِنْدَمَا سَمِعَ بِيلاطُسُ هَذَا الْكَلامَ، اشْتَدَّ خَوْفُهُ، وَدَخَلَ إِلَى قَصْرِهِ وَسَأَلَ يَسُوعَ: «مِنْ أَيْنَ أَنْتَ؟» فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ يَسُوعُ بِشَيْءٍ. 10 فَقَالَ لَهُ بِيلاطُسُ: «أَمَا تُكَلِّمُنِي؟ أَلا تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ لِي سُلْطَةً أَنْ أُطْلِقَكَ، وَسُلْطَةً أَنْ أَصْلِبَكَ؟» 11 فَأَجَابَهُ يَسُوعُ «مَا كَانَ لَكَ عَلَيَّ سُلْطَةٌ قَطُّ، لَوْ لَمْ تَكُنْ قَدْ أُعْطِيَتْ لَكَ مِنْ فَوْقُ. لِذلِكَ فَالَّذِي سَلَّمَنِي إِلَيْكَ لَهُ خَطِيئَةٌ أَعْظَمُ.»

12 مِنْ أَجْلِ ذلِكَ سَعَى بِيلاطُسُ أَنْ يُطْلِقَهُ، وَلَكِنَّ الْيَهُودَ صَرَخُوا: «إِنْ أَطْلَقْتَ هَذَا، فَلَسْتَ مُحِبّاً لِلْقَيْصَرِ. فَإِنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ يَجْعَلُ نَفْسَهُ مَلِكاً، يُعَادِي الْقَيْصَرَ».

13 فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ بِيلاطُسُ هَذَا الْكَلامَ، أَمَرَ بِإِخْرَاجِ يَسُوعَ، وَجَلَسَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ الْقَضَاءِ فِي مَكَانٍ يُسَمَّى «الْبَلاطَ»، وَبِالْعِبْرِيَّةِ: «جَبَّاثَا». 14 وَكَانَ الْوَقْتُ نَحْوَ السَّادِسَةِ فِي يَوْمِ الإِعْدَادِ لِلْفِصْحِ. وَقَالَ بِيلاطُسُ لِلْيَهُودِ: «هَا هُوَ مَلِكُكُمْ!» 15 فَصَرَخُوا: «خُذْهُ! خُذْهُ! اصْلِبْهُ!» فَسَأَلَهُمْ بِيلاطُسُ: «أَأَصْلِبُ مَلِكَكُمْ؟» فَأَجَابَهُ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ: «لا مَلِكَ لَنَا إِلّا الْقَيْصَرَ». 16 فَسَلَّمَهُ بِيلاطُسُ إِلَيْهِمْ لِيُصْلَبَ.

الصلب

فَأَخَذُوا يَسُوعَ. 17 فَخَرَجَ وَهُوَ حَامِلٌ صَلِيبَهُ إِلَى الْمَكَانِ الْمَعْرُوفِ بِمَكَانِ الْجُمْجُمَةِ، وَبِالْعِبْرِيَّةِ: «جُلْجُثَةِ»، 18 وَهُنَاكَ صَلَبُوهُ وَصَلَبُوا مَعَهُ رَجُلَيْنِ، وَاحِداً مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍ، وَيَسُوعُ فِي الْوَسْطِ.

19 وَعَلَّقَ بِيلاطُسُ لافِتَةً عَلَى الصَّلِيبِ مَكْتُوباً عَلَيْهَا: «يَسُوعُ النَّاصِرِيُّ مَلِكُ الْيَهُودِ». 20 فَقَرَأَ اللّافِتَةَ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ، لأَنَّ الْمَكَانَ الَّذِي صُلِبَ يَسُوعُ فِيهِ كَانَ قَرِيباً مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ. وَكَانَتِ اللّافِتَةُ مَكْتُوبَةً بِالْعِبْرِيَّةِ وَاللّاتِينِيَّةِ وَالْيُونَانِيَّةِ. 21 فَقَالَ رُؤَسَاءُ كَهَنَةِ الْيَهُودِ لِبِيلاطُسَ: «لا تَكْتُبْ: مَلِكُ الْيَهُودِ، بَلْ إِنَّ هَذَا الإِنْسَانَ قَالَ: أَنَا مَلِكُ الْيَهُودِ». 22 فَرَدَّ بِيلاطُسُ: «مَا كَتَبْتُ فَقَدْ كَتَبْتُ!»

23 وَلَمَّا صَلَبَ الْجُنُودُ يَسُوعَ أَخَذُوا ثِيَابَهُ وَقَسَّمُوهَا إِلَى أَرْبَعَةِ أَقْسَامٍ، فَأَخَذَ كُلُّ جُنْدِيٍّ قِسْماً. وَأَخَذُوا الْقَمِيصَ أَيْضاً، وَكَانَ مَنْسُوجاً كُلُّهُ مِنْ قِطْعَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ، بِغَيْرِ خِيَاطَةٍ. 24 فَقَالَ الْجُنُودُ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: «لا دَاعِيَ لِتَمْزِيقِهِ، بَلْ لِنَقْتَرِعْ عَلَيْهِ فَنَرَى مَنْ يَكْسِبُهُ!» وَقَدْ حَدَثَ ذلِكَ لِيَتِمَّ مَا جَاءَ فِي الْكِتَابِ: «اقْتَسَمُوا ثِيَابِي بَيْنَهُمْ، وَعَلَى قَمِيصِي اقْتَرَعُوا». وَهَذَا هُوَ مَا فَعَلَهُ الْجُنُودُ.

25 وَهُنَاكَ، عِنْدَ صَلِيبِ يَسُوعَ، وَقَفَتْ مَرْيَمُ أُمُّهُ، وَأُخْتُ أُمِّهِ مَرْيَمُ زَوْجَةُ كِلُوبَا؛ وَمَرْيَمُ الْمَجْدَلِيَّةُ. 26 فَلَمَّا رَأَى يَسُوعُ أُمَّهُ، وَالتِّلْمِيذَ الَّذِي كَانَ يُحِبُّهُ وَاقِفاً بِالْقُرْبِ مِنْهَا، قَالَ لأُمِّهِ: «أَيَّتُهَا الْمَرْأَةُ، هَذَا ابْنُكِ!» 27 ثُمَّ قَالَ لِلتِّلْمِيذِ: «هذِهِ أُمُّكَ». وَمُنْذُ ذلِكَ الْحِينِ أَخَذَهَا التِّلْمِيذُ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ.

موت يسوع

28 بَعْدَ هَذَا رَأَى يَسُوعُ أَنَّ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ قَدِ اكْتَمَلَ، فَقَالَ: «أَنَا عَطْشَانُ»، لِيَتِمَّ مَا جَاءَ فِي الْكِتَابِ. 29 وَكَانَ هُنَاكَ وِعَاءٌ مَلِيءٌ بِالْخَلِّ، فَغَمَسُوا فِي الْخَلِّ إِسْفِنْجَةً وَضَعُوهَا عَلَى زُوفَا، وَرَفَعُوهَا إِلَى فَمِهِ. 30 فَلَمَّا ذَاقَ يَسُوعُ الْخَلَّ، قَالَ: «قَدْ أُكْمِلَ!» ثُمَّ نَكَّسَ رَأْسَهُ وَأَسْلَمَ الرُّوحَ.

31 وَلَمَّا كَانَ الإِعْدَادُ يَتِمُّ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، طَلَبَ الْيَهُودُ مِنْ بِيلاطُسَ أَنْ تُكْسَرَ سِيقَانُ الْمَصْلُوبِينَ، فَتُؤْخَذَ جُثَثُهُمْ لِئَلّا تَبْقَى مُعَلَّقَةً عَلَى الصَّلِيبِ يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ، وَلاسِيَّمَا لأَنَّ ذلِكَ السَّبْتَ كَانَ يَوْماً عَظِيماً. 32 فَجَاءَ الْجُنُودُ وَكَسَرُوا سَاقَيْ كِلا الرَّجُلَيْنِ الْمَصْلُوبَيْنِ مَعَ يَسُوعَ. 33 أَمَّا يَسُوعُ، فَلَمَّا وَصَلُوا إِلَيْهِ وَجَدُوهُ قَدْ مَاتَ، فَلَمْ يَكْسِرُوا سَاقَيْهِ. 34 وَإِنَّمَا طَعَنَهُ أَحَدُ الْجُنُودِ بِحَرْبَةٍ فِي جَنْبِهِ، فَخَرَجَ فِي الْحَالِ دَمٌ وَمَاءٌ. 35 وَالَّذِي رَأَى هَذَا هُوَ يَشْهَدُ، وَشَهَادَتُهُ حَقٌّ وَهُوَ يَعْلَمُ تَمَاماً أَنَّهُ يَقُولُ الْحَقَّ، لِكَيْ تُؤْمِنُوا أَنْتُمْ أَيْضاً. 36 وَقَدْ حَدَثَ هَذَا لِيَتِمَّ مَا جَاءَ فِي الْكِتَابِ: «لَنْ يُكْسَرَ مِنْهُ عَظْمٌ!» 37 وَقَدْ جَاءَ أَيْضاً فِي مَوْضِعٍ آخَرَ مِنَ الْكِتَابِ: «سَيَنْظُرُونَ إِلَى ذَاكَ الَّذِي طَعَنُوهُ».

دفن جثمان يسوع

38 بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ طَلَبَ يُوسُفُ الَّذِي مِنَ الرَّامَةِ إِلَى بِيلاطُسَ أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَهُ بِأَخْذِ جُثْمَانِ يَسُوعَ، وَكَانَ يُوسُفُ هَذَا تِلْمِيذاً لِيَسُوعَ وَلَكِنْ فِي السِّرِّ، لأَنَّهُ كَانَ خَائِفاً مِنَ الْيَهُودِ، فَأَذِنَ لَهُ بِيلاطُسُ. فَجَاءَ يُوسُفُ وَأَخَذَ جُثْمَانَ يَسُوعَ. 39 وَجَاءَ أَيْضاً نِيقُودِيمُوسُ الَّذِي كَانَ قَدْ أَتَى مِنْ قَبْلُ إِلَى يَسُوعَ لَيْلاً، وَأَحْضَرَ مَعَهُ حَوَالَيْ ثَلاثِينَ لِتْراً مِنْ طِيبِ الْمُرِّ الْمَخْلُوطِ بِالْعُودِ. 40 فَأَخَذَا جُثْمَانَ يَسُوعَ وَلَفَّاهُ بِأَكْفَانٍ مَعَ الطِّيبِ، كَمَا كَانَتْ عَادَةُ الْيَهُودِ فِي الدَّفْنِ. 41 وَكَانَ فِي الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي صُلِبَ يَسُوعُ فِيهِ بُسْتَانٌ، وَفِي الْبُسْتَانِ قَبْرٌ جَدِيدٌ، لَمْ يَسْبِقْ أَنْ دُفِنَ فِيهِ أَحَدٌ. 42 فَدَفَنَا يَسُوعَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْقَبْرِ لأَنَّهُ كَانَ قَرِيباً، وَلأَنَّ ذلِكَ الْيَوْمَ كَانَ يَوْمَ الإِعْدَادِ عِنْدَ الْيَهُودِ.

القبر الفارغ

20 وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الأَوَّلِ مِنَ الأُسْبُوعِ، بَكَّرَتْ مَرْيَمُ الْمَجْدَلِيَّةُ إِلَى قَبْرِ يَسُوعَ، وَالظَّلامُ مُخَيِّمٌ، فَرَأَتِ الْحَجَرَ قَدْ رُفِعَ عَنْ بَابِ الْقَبْرِ. فَأَسْرَعَتْ وَجَاءَتْ إِلَى سِمْعَانَ بُطْرُسَ وَالتِّلْمِيذِ الآخَرِ الَّذِي كَانَ يَسُوعُ يُحِبُّهُ وَقَالَتْ لَهُمَا: «أَخَذُوا الرَّبَّ مِنَ الْقَبْرِ، وَلا نَدْرِي أَيْنَ وَضَعُوهُ!» فَخَرَجَ بُطْرُسُ وَالتِّلْمِيذُ الآخَرُ وَتَوَجَّهَا إِلَى الْقَبْرِ. وَكَانَا يَرْكُضَانِ مَعاً. وَلكِنَّ التِّلْمِيذَ الآخَرَ سَبَقَ بُطْرُسَ فَوَصَلَ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ قَبْلَهُ، وَانْحَنَى فَرَأَى الأَكْفَانَ مُلْقَاةً عَلَى الأَرْضِ، وَلكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَدْخُلْ. ثُمَّ وَصَلَ سِمْعَانُ بُطْرُسُ فِي إِثْرِهِ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ وَدَخَلَهُ، فَرَأَى أَيْضاً الأَكْفَانَ مُلْقَاةً عَلَى الأَرْضِ. وَالْمِنْدِيلُ الَّذِي كَانَ عَلَى رَأْسِ يَسُوعَ وَجَدَهُ مَلْفُوفاً وَحْدَهُ فِي مَكَانٍ مُنْفَصِلٍ عَنِ الأَكْفَانِ. عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ دَخَلَ التِّلْمِيذُ الآخَرُ، الَّذِي كَانَ قَدْ وَصَلَ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ أَوَّلاً، وَرَأَى فَآمَنَ. فَإِنَّ التَّلامِيذَ لَمْ يَكُونُوا حَتَّى ذَلِكَ الْوَقْتِ قَدْ فَهِمُوا أَنَّ الْكِتَابَ تَنَبَّأَ بِأَنَّهُ لابُدَّ أَنْ يَقُومَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَمْوَاتِ. 10 ثُمَّ رَجَعَ التِّلْمِيذَانِ إِلَى بَيْتِهِمَا.

11 أَمَّا مَرْيَمُ فَظَلَّتْ وَاقِفَةً فِي الْخَارِجِ تَبْكِي عِنْدَ الْقَبْرِ. وَفِيمَا هِيَ تَبْكِي، انْحَنَتْ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ. 12 فَرَأَتْ مَلاكَيْنِ بِثِيَابٍ بِيضٍ، جَالِسَيْنِ حَيْثُ كَانَ جُثْمَانُ يَسُوعَ مَوْضُوعاً، وَاحِداً عِنْدَ الرَّأْسِ وَالآخَرَ عِنْدَ الْقَدَمَيْنِ. 13 فَسَأَلاهَا: «يَا امْرَأَةُ، لِمَاذَا تَبْكِينَ؟» أَجَابَتْ: «أَخَذُوا سَيِّدِي، وَلا أَدْرِي أَيْنَ وَضَعُوهُ». 14 قَالَتْ هَذَا وَالْتَفَتَتْ إِلَى الْوَرَاءِ، فَرَأَتْ يَسُوعَ وَاقِفاً، وَلكِنَّهَا لَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ يَسُوعُ. 15 فَسَأَلَهَا: «يَا امْرَأَةُ، لِمَاذَا تَبْكِينَ؟ عَمَّنْ تَبْحَثِينَ؟» فَظَنَّتْ أَنَّهُ الْبُسْتَانِيُّ، فَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، إِنْ كُنْتَ أَنْتَ قَدْ أَخَذْتَهُ فَقُلْ لِي أَيْنَ وَضَعْتَهُ لِآخُذَهُ». 16 فَنَادَاهَا يَسُوعُ: «يَا مَرْيَمُ!» فَالْتَفَتَتْ وَهَتَفَتْ بِالْعِبْرِيَّةِ: «رَبُّونِي»، أَيْ: يَا مُعَلِّمُ. 17 فَقَالَ لَهَا: «لا تُمْسِكِي بِي! فَإِنِّي لَمْ أَصْعَدْ بَعْدُ إِلَى الآبِ، بَلِ اذْهَبِي إِلَى إِخْوَتِي وَقُولِي لَهُمْ: إِنِّي سَأَصْعَدُ إِلَى أَبِي وَأَبِيكُمْ، وَإِلَهِي وَإِلَهِكُمْ!» 18 فَرَجَعَتْ مَرْيَمُ الْمَجْدَلِيَّةُ وَبَشَّرَتِ التَّلامِيذَ قَائِلَةً: «إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ الرَّبَّ!» وَأَخْبَرَتْهُمْ بِمَا قَالَ لَهَا.

19 وَلَمَّا حَلَّ مَسَاءُ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، وَهُوَ الْيَوْمُ الأَوَّلُ مِنَ الأُسْبُوعِ، كَانَ التَّلامِيذُ مُجْتَمِعِينَ فِي بَيْتٍ أَغْلَقُوا أَبْوَابَهُ خَوْفاً مِنَ الْيَهُودِ، وَإذَا يَسُوعُ يَحْضُرُ وَسْطَهُمْ قَائِلاً: «سَلامٌ لَكُمْ!» 20 وَإِذْ قَالَ هَذَا، أَرَاهُمْ يَدَيْهِ وَجَنْبَهُ، فَفَرِحَ التَّلامِيذُ إِذْ أَبْصَرُوا الرَّبَّ. 21 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «سَلامٌ لَكُمْ. كَمَا أَنَّ الآبَ أَرْسَلَنِي، أُرْسِلُكُمْ أَنَا». 22 قَالَ هَذَا وَنَفَخَ فِيهِمْ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «اقْبَلُوا الرُّوحَ الْقُدُسَ. 23 مَنْ غَفَرْتُمْ خَطَايَاهُمْ غُفِرَتْ لَهُمْ، وَمَنْ أَمْسَكْتُمْ خَطَايَاهُمْ، أُمْسِكَتْ!»

24 وَلكِنَّ تُومَا، أَحَدَ التَّلامِيذِ الاثَنْي عَشَرَ، وَهُوَ الْمَعْرُوفُ بِالتَّوْأَمِ، لَمْ يَكُنْ مَعَ التَّلامِيذِ، حِينَ حَضَرَ يَسُوعُ. 25 فَقَالَ لَهُ التَّلامِيذُ الآخَرُونَ: «إِنَّنَا رَأَيْنَا الرَّبَّ!» فَأَجَابَ: «إِنْ كُنْتُ لَا أَرَى أَثَرَ الْمَسَامِيرِ فِي يَدَيْهِ، وَأَضَعُ إِصْبِعِي فِي مَكَانِ الْمَسَامِيرِ، وَأَضَعُ يَدِي فِي جَنْبِهِ، فَلا أُومِنُ!»

26 وَبَعْدَ ثَمَانِيَةِ أَيَّامٍ، إِذْ كَانَ تَلامِيذُهُ مُجْتَمِعِينَ ثَانِيَةً دَاخِلَ الْبَيْتِ وَتُومَا مَعَهُمْ، حَضَرَ يَسُوعُ وَالأَبْوَابُ مُغَلَّقَةٌ، وَوَقَفَ فِي الْوَسَطِ وَقَالَ: «سَلامٌ لَكُمْ!» 27 ثُمَّ قَالَ لِتُومَا: «هَاتِ إِصْبَعَكَ إِلى هُنَا، وَانْظُرْ يَدَيَّ، وَهَاتِ يَدَكَ وَضَعْهَا فِي جَنْبِي. وَلا تَكُنْ غَيْرَ مُؤْمِنٍ بَلْ كُنْ مَؤْمِناً!» 28 فَهَتَفَ تُومَا: «رَبِّي وَإِلَهِي». 29 فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «أَلأَنَّكَ رَأَيْتَنِي آمَنْتَ؟ طُوبَى لِلَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ دُونَ أَنْ يَرَوْا.»

30 وَقَدْ أَجْرَى يَسُوعُ أَمَامَ تَلامِيذِهِ آيَاتٍ أُخْرَى كَثِيرَةً لَمْ تُدَوَّنْ فِي الْكِتَابِ. 31 وَأَمَّا هَذِهِ الآيَاتُ فَقَدْ دُوِّنَتْ لِتؤْمِنُوا بِأَنَّ يَسُوعَ هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ اللهِ، وَلِكَيْ تَكُونَ لَكُمْ حَيَاةٌ بِاسْمِهِ إِذْ تُؤْمِنُونَ.

يسوع ومعجزة صيد السمك

21 بَعْدَ ذلِكَ أَظْهَرَ يَسُوعُ نَفْسَهُ لِلتَّلامِيذِ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى عِنْدَ شَاطِئِ بُحَيْرَةِ طَبَرِيَّةَ. وَقَدْ أَظْهَرَ نَفْسَهُ هَكَذَا: اجْتَمَعَ سِمْعَانُ بُطْرُسُ وَتُومَا، الْمَعْرُوفُ بِالتَّوْأَمِ، وَنَثَنَائِيلُ، وَهَوَ مِنْ قَانَا بِمِنْطَقَةِ الْجَليلِ، وَابْنَا زَبَدِي، وَتِلْمِيذَانِ آخَرَانِ. فَقَالَ لَهُمْ سِمْعَانُ بُطْرُسُ: «أَنَا ذَاهِبٌ لِلصَّيْدِ!» فَقَالُوا: «وَنَحْنُ أَيْضاً نَذْهَبُ مَعَكَ». فَذَهَبُوا وَرَكِبُوا الْقَارِبَ، وَلكِنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَصِيدُوا شَيْئاً فِي تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةِ. وَلَمَّا طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ، وَقَفَ يَسُوعُ عَلَى الشَّاطِئِ، وَلكِنَّ التَّلامِيذَ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا أَنَّهُ يَسُوعُ. فَسَأَلَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «يَا فِتْيَانُ، أَمَا عِنْدَكُمْ سَمَكٌ؟» أَجَابُوهُ: «لا!» فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَلْقُوا الشَّبَكَةَ إِلَى يَمِينِ الْقَارِبِ، تَجِدُوا!» فَأَلْقَوْهَا، وَلَمْ يَعُودُوا يَقْدِرُونَ أَنْ يَجْذِبُوهَا لِكَثْرَةِ مَا فِيهَا مِنَ السَّمَكِ! فَقَالَ التِّلْمِيذُ الَّذِي كَانَ يَسُوعُ يُحِبُّهُ، لِبُطْرُسَ: «إِنَّهُ الرَّبُّ!» وَكَانَ بُطْرُسُ عُرْيَاناً، فَمَا إِنْ سَمِعَ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ هُوَ الرَّبُّ، حَتَّى تَسَتَّرَ بِرِدَائِهِ، وَأَلْقَى نَفْسَهُ فِي الْمَاءِ سَابِحاً. وَجَاءَ بَاقِي التَّلامِيذِ بِالْقَارِبِ وَهُمْ يَجُرُّونَ شَبَكَةَ السَّمَكِ، إِذْ كَانُوا غَيْرَ بَعِيدِينَ عَنِ الشَّاطِئِ إِلّا نَحْوَ مِئَتَيْ ذِرَاعٍ. فَلَمَّا نَزَلُوا إِلَى الشَّاطِئِ، رَأَوْا هُنَاكَ جَمْراً وَسَمَكاً مَوْضُوعاً عَلَيْهِ، وَخُبْزاً. 10 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «هَاتُوا مِنَ السَّمَكِ الَّذِي صِدْتُمُوهُ الآنَ!» 11 فَصَعِدَ سِمْعَانُ بُطْرُسُ إِلَى الْقَارِبِ وَجَذَبَ الشَّبَكَةَ إِلَى الْبَرِّ، فَإِذَا فِيهَا مِئَةٌ وَثَلاثٌ وَخَمْسُونَ سَمَكَةً مِنَ السَّمَكِ الْكَبِيرِ، وَمَعَ هذِهِ الْكَثْرَةِ لَمْ تَتَمَزَّقِ الشَّبَكَةُ. 12 وَقَالَ يَسُوعُ لِلتَّلاميِذِ: «تَعَالَوْا كُلُوا». وَلَمْ يَجْرُؤْ أَحَدٌ مِنَ التَّلامِيذِ أَنْ يَسْأَلَهُ: مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ لأَنَّهُمْ عَرَفُوا أَنَّهُ الرَّبُّ. 13 ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمَ يَسُوعُ وَأَخَذَ الْخُبْزَ وَنَاوَلَهُمْ، وَكَذلِكَ السَّمَكَ. 14 هذِهِ هِيَ الْمَرَّةُ الثَّالِثَةُ الَّتِي أَظْهَرَ فِيهَا يَسُوعُ نَفْسَهُ لِتَلامِيذِهِ بَعْدَمَا قَامَ مِنَ الأَمْوَاتِ.

15 وَبَعْدَمَا أَكَلُوا سَأَلَ يَسُوعُ سِمْعَانَ بُطْرُسَ: «يَا سِمْعَانُ بْنَ يُونَا، أَتُحِبُّنِي أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا يُحِبُّنِي هؤُلاءِ؟» فَأَجَابَهُ «نَعَمْ يَا رَبُّ، أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنِّي أُحِبُّكَ!» فَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَطْعِمْ حُمْلانِي!» 16 ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ ثَانِيَةً: «يَا سِمْعَانُ بْنَ يُونَا، أَتُحِبُّنِي؟» فَأَجَابَهُ: «نَعَمْ يَا رَبُّ. أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنِّي أُحِبُّكَ!» قَالَ لَهُ: «ارْعَ خِرَافِي» 17 فَسَأَلَهُ مَرَّةً ثَالِثَةً: «يَا سِمْعَانُ بْنَ يُونَا، أَتُحِبُّنِي؟» فَحَزِنَ بُطْرُسُ لأَنَّ يَسُوعَ قَالَ لَهُ فِي الْمَرَّةِ الثَّالِثَةِ: «أَتُحِبُّنِي». وَقَالَ لَهُ: «يَا رَبُّ، أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ. أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنِّي أُحِبُّكَ!» فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «أَطْعِمْ خِرَافِي! 18 الْحَقَّ الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكَ: إِنَّكَ لَمَّا كُنْتَ شَابّاً كُنْتَ تَرْبِطُ حِزَامَكَ عَلَى وَسَطِكَ وَتَذْهَبُ حَيْثُ تُرِيدُ. وَلكِنْ عِنْدَمَا تَصِيرُ شَيْخاً فَإِنَّكَ تَمُدُّ يَدَيْكَ، وَآخَرُ يَرْبُطُ حِزَامَكَ وَيَذْهَبُ بِكَ حَيْثُ لَا تُرِيدُ!» 19 وَقَدْ قَالَ يَسُوعُ هَذَا إِشَارَةً إِلَى الْمِيتَةِ الَّتِي سَوْفَ يَمُوتُهَا بُطْرُسُ فَيُمَجِّدُ بِها اللهَ. وَلَمَّا قَالَ لَهُ ذلِكَ، قَالَ لَهُ: «اتْبَعْنِي».

20 وَنَظَرَ بُطْرُسُ وَرَاءَهُ، فَرَأَى التِّلْمِيذَ الَّذِي كَانَ يَسُوعُ يُحِبُّهُ يَتْبَعُهُمَا، وَهُوَ التِّلْمِيذُ الَّذِي مَالَ إِلَى صَدْرِ يَسُوعَ فِي أَثْنَاءِ الْعَشَاءِ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، مَنْ هُوَ الَّذِي سَيَخُونُكَ؟» 21 فَلَمَّا رَآهُ بُطْرُسُ سَأَلَ يَسُوعَ: «يَا رَبُّ وَهَذَا، مَاذَا يَكُونُ لَهُ؟» 22 أَجَابَهُ يَسُوعُ: «لَوْ شِئْتُ أَنْ يَبْقَى حَتَّى أَرْجِعَ، فَمَا شَأْنُكَ؟ اتْبَعْنِي أَنْتَ!» 23 فَشَاعَ خَبَرٌ بَيْنَ الإِخْوَةِ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ التِّلْمِيذَ لَنْ يَمُوتَ. وَلكِنَّ يَسُوعَ لَمْ يَقُلْ لِبُطْرُسَ: «إِنَّهُ لَنْ يَمُوتَ!» بَلْ قَالَ: «لَوْ شِئْتُ أَنْ يَبْقَى حَتَّى أَرْجِعَ، فَمَا شَأْنُكَ؟»

24 هَذَا التِّلْمِيذُ هُوَ الَّذِي يَشْهَدُ بِهذِهِ الأُمُورِ، وَقَدْ دَوَّنَهَا هُنَا. وَنَحْنُ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ شَهَادَتَهُ حَقٌّ.

25 وَهُنَاكَ أُمُورٌ أُخْرَى كَثِيرَةٌ عَمِلَهَا يَسُوعُ، أَظُنُّ أَنَّهَا لَوْ دُوِّنَتْ وَاحِدَةً فَوَاحِدَةً، لَمَا كَانَ الْعَالَمُ كُلُّهُ يَسَعُ مَا دُوِّنَ مِنْ كُتُبٍ!

19 Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.

And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe,

And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands.

Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith unto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in him.

Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!

When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.

The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.

When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;

And went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.

10 Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?

11 Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin.

12 And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar's friend: whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.

13 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.

14 And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King!

15 But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.

16 Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.

17 And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:

18 Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.

19 And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was Jesus Of Nazareth The King Of The Jews.

20 This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin.

21 Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews.

22 Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.

23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.

24 They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.

25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.

26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!

27 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.

28 After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.

29 Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth.

30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

31 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

32 Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him.

33 But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:

34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.

35 And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe.

36 For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.

37 And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.

38 And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus.

39 And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.

40 Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.

41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid.

42 There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.

20 The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.

Then she runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him.

Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulchre.

So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.

And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.

Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,

And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.

Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed.

For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.

10 Then the disciples went away again unto their own home.

11 But Mary stood without at the sepulchre weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down, and looked into the sepulchre,

12 And seeth two angels in white sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.

13 And they say unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? She saith unto them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him.

14 And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.

15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.

16 Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master.

17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.

18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken these things unto her.

19 Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

20 And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord.

21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.

22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:

23 Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.

24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.

25 The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.

26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.

27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.

28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.

29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

30 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:

31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.

21 After these things Jesus shewed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and on this wise shewed he himself.

There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two other of his disciples.

Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing.

But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus.

Then Jesus saith unto them, Children, have ye any meat? They answered him, No.

And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes.

Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fisher's coat unto him, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea.

And the other disciples came in a little ship; (for they were not far from land, but as it were two hundred cubits,) dragging the net with fishes.

As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread.

10 Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now caught.

11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken.

12 Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.

13 Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise.

14 This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples, after that he was risen from the dead.

15 So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.

16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep.

17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.

18 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdest thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest not.

19 This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me.

20 Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following; which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he that betrayeth thee?

21 Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do?

22 Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me.

23 Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee?

24 This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true.

25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.

الحكم على يسوع بالصلب

19 عِنْدَئِذٍ أَمَرَ بِيلاطُسُ بِأَنْ يُؤْخَذَ يَسُوعُ وَيُجْلَدَ. وَجَدَلَ الْجُنُودُ إِكْلِيلاً مِنَ الشَّوْكِ وَضَعُوهُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ، وَأَلْبَسُوهُ رِدَاءَ أُرْجُوَانٍ. وَأَخَذُوا يَتَقَدَّمُونَ إِلَيْهِ وَيَقُولُونَ: «سَلامٌ، يَا مَلِكَ الْيَهُودِ!» وَيَلْطِمُونَهُ.

وَخَرَجَ بِيلاطُسُ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى إِلَى الْجُمْهُورِ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «سَأُخْرِجُهُ إِلَيْكُمْ لِتَرَوْا أَنِّي لَا أَجِدُ فِيهِ ذَنْباً!» فَخَرَجَ يَسُوعُ وَعَلَيْهِ إِكْلِيلُ الشَّوْكِ وَرِدَاءُ الأُرْجُوَانِ. فَقَالَ لَهُمْ بِيلاطُسُ: «هَا هُوَ الإِنْسَانُ!» فَلَمَّا رَآهُ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ وَالْحَرَسُ صَرَخُوا: «اصْلِبْهُ! اصْلِبْهُ!» فَقَالَ لَهُمْ بِيلاطُسُ: «بَلْ خُذُوهُ أَنْتُمْ وَاصْلِبُوهُ، فَإِنِّي لَا أَجِدُ فِيهِ ذَنْباً!» فَأَجَابَهُ الْيَهُودُ: «لَنَا شَرِيعَةٌ. وَبِحَسَبِ شَرِيعَتِنَا يَتَحَتَّمُ عَلَيْهِ الْمَوْتُ، لأَنَّهُ جَعَلَ نَفْسَهُ ابْنَ اللهِ». فَعِنْدَمَا سَمِعَ بِيلاطُسُ هَذَا الْكَلامَ، اشْتَدَّ خَوْفُهُ، وَدَخَلَ إِلَى قَصْرِهِ وَسَأَلَ يَسُوعَ: «مِنْ أَيْنَ أَنْتَ؟» فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ يَسُوعُ بِشَيْءٍ. 10 فَقَالَ لَهُ بِيلاطُسُ: «أَمَا تُكَلِّمُنِي؟ أَلا تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ لِي سُلْطَةً أَنْ أُطْلِقَكَ، وَسُلْطَةً أَنْ أَصْلِبَكَ؟» 11 فَأَجَابَهُ يَسُوعُ «مَا كَانَ لَكَ عَلَيَّ سُلْطَةٌ قَطُّ، لَوْ لَمْ تَكُنْ قَدْ أُعْطِيَتْ لَكَ مِنْ فَوْقُ. لِذلِكَ فَالَّذِي سَلَّمَنِي إِلَيْكَ لَهُ خَطِيئَةٌ أَعْظَمُ.»

12 مِنْ أَجْلِ ذلِكَ سَعَى بِيلاطُسُ أَنْ يُطْلِقَهُ، وَلَكِنَّ الْيَهُودَ صَرَخُوا: «إِنْ أَطْلَقْتَ هَذَا، فَلَسْتَ مُحِبّاً لِلْقَيْصَرِ. فَإِنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ يَجْعَلُ نَفْسَهُ مَلِكاً، يُعَادِي الْقَيْصَرَ».

13 فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ بِيلاطُسُ هَذَا الْكَلامَ، أَمَرَ بِإِخْرَاجِ يَسُوعَ، وَجَلَسَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ الْقَضَاءِ فِي مَكَانٍ يُسَمَّى «الْبَلاطَ»، وَبِالْعِبْرِيَّةِ: «جَبَّاثَا». 14 وَكَانَ الْوَقْتُ نَحْوَ السَّادِسَةِ فِي يَوْمِ الإِعْدَادِ لِلْفِصْحِ. وَقَالَ بِيلاطُسُ لِلْيَهُودِ: «هَا هُوَ مَلِكُكُمْ!» 15 فَصَرَخُوا: «خُذْهُ! خُذْهُ! اصْلِبْهُ!» فَسَأَلَهُمْ بِيلاطُسُ: «أَأَصْلِبُ مَلِكَكُمْ؟» فَأَجَابَهُ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ: «لا مَلِكَ لَنَا إِلّا الْقَيْصَرَ». 16 فَسَلَّمَهُ بِيلاطُسُ إِلَيْهِمْ لِيُصْلَبَ.

الصلب

فَأَخَذُوا يَسُوعَ. 17 فَخَرَجَ وَهُوَ حَامِلٌ صَلِيبَهُ إِلَى الْمَكَانِ الْمَعْرُوفِ بِمَكَانِ الْجُمْجُمَةِ، وَبِالْعِبْرِيَّةِ: «جُلْجُثَةِ»، 18 وَهُنَاكَ صَلَبُوهُ وَصَلَبُوا مَعَهُ رَجُلَيْنِ، وَاحِداً مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍ، وَيَسُوعُ فِي الْوَسْطِ.

19 وَعَلَّقَ بِيلاطُسُ لافِتَةً عَلَى الصَّلِيبِ مَكْتُوباً عَلَيْهَا: «يَسُوعُ النَّاصِرِيُّ مَلِكُ الْيَهُودِ». 20 فَقَرَأَ اللّافِتَةَ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ، لأَنَّ الْمَكَانَ الَّذِي صُلِبَ يَسُوعُ فِيهِ كَانَ قَرِيباً مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ. وَكَانَتِ اللّافِتَةُ مَكْتُوبَةً بِالْعِبْرِيَّةِ وَاللّاتِينِيَّةِ وَالْيُونَانِيَّةِ. 21 فَقَالَ رُؤَسَاءُ كَهَنَةِ الْيَهُودِ لِبِيلاطُسَ: «لا تَكْتُبْ: مَلِكُ الْيَهُودِ، بَلْ إِنَّ هَذَا الإِنْسَانَ قَالَ: أَنَا مَلِكُ الْيَهُودِ». 22 فَرَدَّ بِيلاطُسُ: «مَا كَتَبْتُ فَقَدْ كَتَبْتُ!»

23 وَلَمَّا صَلَبَ الْجُنُودُ يَسُوعَ أَخَذُوا ثِيَابَهُ وَقَسَّمُوهَا إِلَى أَرْبَعَةِ أَقْسَامٍ، فَأَخَذَ كُلُّ جُنْدِيٍّ قِسْماً. وَأَخَذُوا الْقَمِيصَ أَيْضاً، وَكَانَ مَنْسُوجاً كُلُّهُ مِنْ قِطْعَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ، بِغَيْرِ خِيَاطَةٍ. 24 فَقَالَ الْجُنُودُ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: «لا دَاعِيَ لِتَمْزِيقِهِ، بَلْ لِنَقْتَرِعْ عَلَيْهِ فَنَرَى مَنْ يَكْسِبُهُ!» وَقَدْ حَدَثَ ذلِكَ لِيَتِمَّ مَا جَاءَ فِي الْكِتَابِ: «اقْتَسَمُوا ثِيَابِي بَيْنَهُمْ، وَعَلَى قَمِيصِي اقْتَرَعُوا». وَهَذَا هُوَ مَا فَعَلَهُ الْجُنُودُ.

25 وَهُنَاكَ، عِنْدَ صَلِيبِ يَسُوعَ، وَقَفَتْ مَرْيَمُ أُمُّهُ، وَأُخْتُ أُمِّهِ مَرْيَمُ زَوْجَةُ كِلُوبَا؛ وَمَرْيَمُ الْمَجْدَلِيَّةُ. 26 فَلَمَّا رَأَى يَسُوعُ أُمَّهُ، وَالتِّلْمِيذَ الَّذِي كَانَ يُحِبُّهُ وَاقِفاً بِالْقُرْبِ مِنْهَا، قَالَ لأُمِّهِ: «أَيَّتُهَا الْمَرْأَةُ، هَذَا ابْنُكِ!» 27 ثُمَّ قَالَ لِلتِّلْمِيذِ: «هذِهِ أُمُّكَ». وَمُنْذُ ذلِكَ الْحِينِ أَخَذَهَا التِّلْمِيذُ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ.

موت يسوع

28 بَعْدَ هَذَا رَأَى يَسُوعُ أَنَّ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ قَدِ اكْتَمَلَ، فَقَالَ: «أَنَا عَطْشَانُ»، لِيَتِمَّ مَا جَاءَ فِي الْكِتَابِ. 29 وَكَانَ هُنَاكَ وِعَاءٌ مَلِيءٌ بِالْخَلِّ، فَغَمَسُوا فِي الْخَلِّ إِسْفِنْجَةً وَضَعُوهَا عَلَى زُوفَا، وَرَفَعُوهَا إِلَى فَمِهِ. 30 فَلَمَّا ذَاقَ يَسُوعُ الْخَلَّ، قَالَ: «قَدْ أُكْمِلَ!» ثُمَّ نَكَّسَ رَأْسَهُ وَأَسْلَمَ الرُّوحَ.

31 وَلَمَّا كَانَ الإِعْدَادُ يَتِمُّ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، طَلَبَ الْيَهُودُ مِنْ بِيلاطُسَ أَنْ تُكْسَرَ سِيقَانُ الْمَصْلُوبِينَ، فَتُؤْخَذَ جُثَثُهُمْ لِئَلّا تَبْقَى مُعَلَّقَةً عَلَى الصَّلِيبِ يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ، وَلاسِيَّمَا لأَنَّ ذلِكَ السَّبْتَ كَانَ يَوْماً عَظِيماً. 32 فَجَاءَ الْجُنُودُ وَكَسَرُوا سَاقَيْ كِلا الرَّجُلَيْنِ الْمَصْلُوبَيْنِ مَعَ يَسُوعَ. 33 أَمَّا يَسُوعُ، فَلَمَّا وَصَلُوا إِلَيْهِ وَجَدُوهُ قَدْ مَاتَ، فَلَمْ يَكْسِرُوا سَاقَيْهِ. 34 وَإِنَّمَا طَعَنَهُ أَحَدُ الْجُنُودِ بِحَرْبَةٍ فِي جَنْبِهِ، فَخَرَجَ فِي الْحَالِ دَمٌ وَمَاءٌ. 35 وَالَّذِي رَأَى هَذَا هُوَ يَشْهَدُ، وَشَهَادَتُهُ حَقٌّ وَهُوَ يَعْلَمُ تَمَاماً أَنَّهُ يَقُولُ الْحَقَّ، لِكَيْ تُؤْمِنُوا أَنْتُمْ أَيْضاً. 36 وَقَدْ حَدَثَ هَذَا لِيَتِمَّ مَا جَاءَ فِي الْكِتَابِ: «لَنْ يُكْسَرَ مِنْهُ عَظْمٌ!» 37 وَقَدْ جَاءَ أَيْضاً فِي مَوْضِعٍ آخَرَ مِنَ الْكِتَابِ: «سَيَنْظُرُونَ إِلَى ذَاكَ الَّذِي طَعَنُوهُ».

38 بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ طَلَبَ يُوسُفُ الَّذِي مِنَ الرَّامَةِ إِلَى بِيلاطُسَ أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَهُ بِأَخْذِ جُثْمَانِ يَسُوعَ، وَكَانَ يُوسُفُ هَذَا تِلْمِيذاً لِيَسُوعَ وَلَكِنْ فِي السِّرِّ، لأَنَّهُ كَانَ خَائِفاً مِنَ الْيَهُودِ، فَأَذِنَ لَهُ بِيلاطُسُ. فَجَاءَ يُوسُفُ وَأَخَذَ جُثْمَانَ يَسُوعَ. 39 وَجَاءَ أَيْضاً نِيقُودِيمُوسُ الَّذِي كَانَ قَدْ أَتَى مِنْ قَبْلُ إِلَى يَسُوعَ لَيْلاً، وَأَحْضَرَ مَعَهُ حَوَالَيْ ثَلاثِينَ لِتْراً مِنْ طِيبِ الْمُرِّ الْمَخْلُوطِ بِالْعُودِ. 40 فَأَخَذَا جُثْمَانَ يَسُوعَ وَلَفَّاهُ بِأَكْفَانٍ مَعَ الطِّيبِ، كَمَا كَانَتْ عَادَةُ الْيَهُودِ فِي الدَّفْنِ. 41 وَكَانَ فِي الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي صُلِبَ يَسُوعُ فِيهِ بُسْتَانٌ، وَفِي الْبُسْتَانِ قَبْرٌ جَدِيدٌ، لَمْ يَسْبِقْ أَنْ دُفِنَ فِيهِ أَحَدٌ. 42 فَدَفَنَا يَسُوعَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْقَبْرِ لأَنَّهُ كَانَ قَرِيباً، وَلأَنَّ ذلِكَ الْيَوْمَ كَانَ يَوْمَ الإِعْدَادِ عِنْدَ الْيَهُودِ.

القبر الفارغ

20 وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الأَوَّلِ مِنَ الأُسْبُوعِ، بَكَّرَتْ مَرْيَمُ الْمَجْدَلِيَّةُ إِلَى قَبْرِ يَسُوعَ، وَالظَّلامُ مُخَيِّمٌ، فَرَأَتِ الْحَجَرَ قَدْ رُفِعَ عَنْ بَابِ الْقَبْرِ. فَأَسْرَعَتْ وَجَاءَتْ إِلَى سِمْعَانَ بُطْرُسَ وَالتِّلْمِيذِ الآخَرِ الَّذِي كَانَ يَسُوعُ يُحِبُّهُ وَقَالَتْ لَهُمَا: «أَخَذُوا الرَّبَّ مِنَ الْقَبْرِ، وَلا نَدْرِي أَيْنَ وَضَعُوهُ!» فَخَرَجَ بُطْرُسُ وَالتِّلْمِيذُ الآخَرُ وَتَوَجَّهَا إِلَى الْقَبْرِ. وَكَانَا يَرْكُضَانِ مَعاً. وَلكِنَّ التِّلْمِيذَ الآخَرَ سَبَقَ بُطْرُسَ فَوَصَلَ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ قَبْلَهُ، وَانْحَنَى فَرَأَى الأَكْفَانَ مُلْقَاةً عَلَى الأَرْضِ، وَلكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَدْخُلْ. ثُمَّ وَصَلَ سِمْعَانُ بُطْرُسُ فِي إِثْرِهِ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ وَدَخَلَهُ، فَرَأَى أَيْضاً الأَكْفَانَ مُلْقَاةً عَلَى الأَرْضِ. وَالْمِنْدِيلُ الَّذِي كَانَ عَلَى رَأْسِ يَسُوعَ وَجَدَهُ مَلْفُوفاً وَحْدَهُ فِي مَكَانٍ مُنْفَصِلٍ عَنِ الأَكْفَانِ. عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ دَخَلَ التِّلْمِيذُ الآخَرُ، الَّذِي كَانَ قَدْ وَصَلَ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ أَوَّلاً، وَرَأَى فَآمَنَ. فَإِنَّ التَّلامِيذَ لَمْ يَكُونُوا حَتَّى ذَلِكَ الْوَقْتِ قَدْ فَهِمُوا أَنَّ الْكِتَابَ تَنَبَّأَ بِأَنَّهُ لابُدَّ أَنْ يَقُومَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَمْوَاتِ. 10 ثُمَّ رَجَعَ التِّلْمِيذَانِ إِلَى بَيْتِهِمَا.

11 أَمَّا مَرْيَمُ فَظَلَّتْ وَاقِفَةً فِي الْخَارِجِ تَبْكِي عِنْدَ الْقَبْرِ. وَفِيمَا هِيَ تَبْكِي، انْحَنَتْ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ. 12 فَرَأَتْ مَلاكَيْنِ بِثِيَابٍ بِيضٍ، جَالِسَيْنِ حَيْثُ كَانَ جُثْمَانُ يَسُوعَ مَوْضُوعاً، وَاحِداً عِنْدَ الرَّأْسِ وَالآخَرَ عِنْدَ الْقَدَمَيْنِ. 13 فَسَأَلاهَا: «يَا امْرَأَةُ، لِمَاذَا تَبْكِينَ؟» أَجَابَتْ: «أَخَذُوا سَيِّدِي، وَلا أَدْرِي أَيْنَ وَضَعُوهُ». 14 قَالَتْ هَذَا وَالْتَفَتَتْ إِلَى الْوَرَاءِ، فَرَأَتْ يَسُوعَ وَاقِفاً، وَلكِنَّهَا لَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ يَسُوعُ. 15 فَسَأَلَهَا: «يَا امْرَأَةُ، لِمَاذَا تَبْكِينَ؟ عَمَّنْ تَبْحَثِينَ؟» فَظَنَّتْ أَنَّهُ الْبُسْتَانِيُّ، فَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، إِنْ كُنْتَ أَنْتَ قَدْ أَخَذْتَهُ فَقُلْ لِي أَيْنَ وَضَعْتَهُ لِآخُذَهُ». 16 فَنَادَاهَا يَسُوعُ: «يَا مَرْيَمُ!» فَالْتَفَتَتْ وَهَتَفَتْ بِالْعِبْرِيَّةِ: «رَبُّونِي»، أَيْ: يَا مُعَلِّمُ. 17 فَقَالَ لَهَا: «لا تُمْسِكِي بِي! فَإِنِّي لَمْ أَصْعَدْ بَعْدُ إِلَى الآبِ، بَلِ اذْهَبِي إِلَى إِخْوَتِي وَقُولِي لَهُمْ: إِنِّي سَأَصْعَدُ إِلَى أَبِي وَأَبِيكُمْ، وَإِلَهِي وَإِلَهِكُمْ!» 18 فَرَجَعَتْ مَرْيَمُ الْمَجْدَلِيَّةُ وَبَشَّرَتِ التَّلامِيذَ قَائِلَةً: «إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ الرَّبَّ!» وَأَخْبَرَتْهُمْ بِمَا قَالَ لَهَا.

19 وَلَمَّا حَلَّ مَسَاءُ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، وَهُوَ الْيَوْمُ الأَوَّلُ مِنَ الأُسْبُوعِ، كَانَ التَّلامِيذُ مُجْتَمِعِينَ فِي بَيْتٍ أَغْلَقُوا أَبْوَابَهُ خَوْفاً مِنَ الْيَهُودِ، وَإذَا يَسُوعُ يَحْضُرُ وَسْطَهُمْ قَائِلاً: «سَلامٌ لَكُمْ!» 20 وَإِذْ قَالَ هَذَا، أَرَاهُمْ يَدَيْهِ وَجَنْبَهُ، فَفَرِحَ التَّلامِيذُ إِذْ أَبْصَرُوا الرَّبَّ. 21 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «سَلامٌ لَكُمْ. كَمَا أَنَّ الآبَ أَرْسَلَنِي، أُرْسِلُكُمْ أَنَا». 22 قَالَ هَذَا وَنَفَخَ فِيهِمْ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «اقْبَلُوا الرُّوحَ الْقُدُسَ. 23 مَنْ غَفَرْتُمْ خَطَايَاهُمْ غُفِرَتْ لَهُمْ، وَمَنْ أَمْسَكْتُمْ خَطَايَاهُمْ، أُمْسِكَتْ!»

24 وَلكِنَّ تُومَا، أَحَدَ التَّلامِيذِ الاثَنْي عَشَرَ، وَهُوَ الْمَعْرُوفُ بِالتَّوْأَمِ، لَمْ يَكُنْ مَعَ التَّلامِيذِ، حِينَ حَضَرَ يَسُوعُ. 25 فَقَالَ لَهُ التَّلامِيذُ الآخَرُونَ: «إِنَّنَا رَأَيْنَا الرَّبَّ!» فَأَجَابَ: «إِنْ كُنْتُ لَا أَرَى أَثَرَ الْمَسَامِيرِ فِي يَدَيْهِ، وَأَضَعُ إِصْبِعِي فِي مَكَانِ الْمَسَامِيرِ، وَأَضَعُ يَدِي فِي جَنْبِهِ، فَلا أُومِنُ!»

26 وَبَعْدَ ثَمَانِيَةِ أَيَّامٍ، إِذْ كَانَ تَلامِيذُهُ مُجْتَمِعِينَ ثَانِيَةً دَاخِلَ الْبَيْتِ وَتُومَا مَعَهُمْ، حَضَرَ يَسُوعُ وَالأَبْوَابُ مُغَلَّقَةٌ، وَوَقَفَ فِي الْوَسَطِ وَقَالَ: «سَلامٌ لَكُمْ!» 27 ثُمَّ قَالَ لِتُومَا: «هَاتِ إِصْبَعَكَ إِلى هُنَا، وَانْظُرْ يَدَيَّ، وَهَاتِ يَدَكَ وَضَعْهَا فِي جَنْبِي. وَلا تَكُنْ غَيْرَ مُؤْمِنٍ بَلْ كُنْ مَؤْمِناً!» 28 فَهَتَفَ تُومَا: «رَبِّي وَإِلَهِي». 29 فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «أَلأَنَّكَ رَأَيْتَنِي آمَنْتَ؟ طُوبَى لِلَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ دُونَ أَنْ يَرَوْا.»

الغرض من إنجيل يوحنا

30 وَقَدْ أَجْرَى يَسُوعُ أَمَامَ تَلامِيذِهِ آيَاتٍ أُخْرَى كَثِيرَةً لَمْ تُدَوَّنْ فِي الْكِتَابِ. 31 وَأَمَّا هَذِهِ الآيَاتُ فَقَدْ دُوِّنَتْ لِتؤْمِنُوا بِأَنَّ يَسُوعَ هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ اللهِ، وَلِكَيْ تَكُونَ لَكُمْ حَيَاةٌ بِاسْمِهِ إِذْ تُؤْمِنُونَ.

يسوع ومعجزة صيد السمك

21 بَعْدَ ذلِكَ أَظْهَرَ يَسُوعُ نَفْسَهُ لِلتَّلامِيذِ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى عِنْدَ شَاطِئِ بُحَيْرَةِ طَبَرِيَّةَ. وَقَدْ أَظْهَرَ نَفْسَهُ هَكَذَا: اجْتَمَعَ سِمْعَانُ بُطْرُسُ وَتُومَا، الْمَعْرُوفُ بِالتَّوْأَمِ، وَنَثَنَائِيلُ، وَهَوَ مِنْ قَانَا بِمِنْطَقَةِ الْجَليلِ، وَابْنَا زَبَدِي، وَتِلْمِيذَانِ آخَرَانِ. فَقَالَ لَهُمْ سِمْعَانُ بُطْرُسُ: «أَنَا ذَاهِبٌ لِلصَّيْدِ!» فَقَالُوا: «وَنَحْنُ أَيْضاً نَذْهَبُ مَعَكَ». فَذَهَبُوا وَرَكِبُوا الْقَارِبَ، وَلكِنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَصِيدُوا شَيْئاً فِي تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةِ. وَلَمَّا طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ، وَقَفَ يَسُوعُ عَلَى الشَّاطِئِ، وَلكِنَّ التَّلامِيذَ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا أَنَّهُ يَسُوعُ. فَسَأَلَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «يَا فِتْيَانُ، أَمَا عِنْدَكُمْ سَمَكٌ؟» أَجَابُوهُ: «لا!» فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَلْقُوا الشَّبَكَةَ إِلَى يَمِينِ الْقَارِبِ، تَجِدُوا!» فَأَلْقَوْهَا، وَلَمْ يَعُودُوا يَقْدِرُونَ أَنْ يَجْذِبُوهَا لِكَثْرَةِ مَا فِيهَا مِنَ السَّمَكِ! فَقَالَ التِّلْمِيذُ الَّذِي كَانَ يَسُوعُ يُحِبُّهُ، لِبُطْرُسَ: «إِنَّهُ الرَّبُّ!» وَكَانَ بُطْرُسُ عُرْيَاناً، فَمَا إِنْ سَمِعَ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ هُوَ الرَّبُّ، حَتَّى تَسَتَّرَ بِرِدَائِهِ، وَأَلْقَى نَفْسَهُ فِي الْمَاءِ سَابِحاً. وَجَاءَ بَاقِي التَّلامِيذِ بِالْقَارِبِ وَهُمْ يَجُرُّونَ شَبَكَةَ السَّمَكِ، إِذْ كَانُوا غَيْرَ بَعِيدِينَ عَنِ الشَّاطِئِ إِلّا نَحْوَ مِئَتَيْ ذِرَاعٍ. فَلَمَّا نَزَلُوا إِلَى الشَّاطِئِ، رَأَوْا هُنَاكَ جَمْراً وَسَمَكاً مَوْضُوعاً عَلَيْهِ، وَخُبْزاً. 10 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «هَاتُوا مِنَ السَّمَكِ الَّذِي صِدْتُمُوهُ الآنَ!» 11 فَصَعِدَ سِمْعَانُ بُطْرُسُ إِلَى الْقَارِبِ وَجَذَبَ الشَّبَكَةَ إِلَى الْبَرِّ، فَإِذَا فِيهَا مِئَةٌ وَثَلاثٌ وَخَمْسُونَ سَمَكَةً مِنَ السَّمَكِ الْكَبِيرِ، وَمَعَ هذِهِ الْكَثْرَةِ لَمْ تَتَمَزَّقِ الشَّبَكَةُ. 12 وَقَالَ يَسُوعُ لِلتَّلاميِذِ: «تَعَالَوْا كُلُوا». وَلَمْ يَجْرُؤْ أَحَدٌ مِنَ التَّلامِيذِ أَنْ يَسْأَلَهُ: مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ لأَنَّهُمْ عَرَفُوا أَنَّهُ الرَّبُّ. 13 ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمَ يَسُوعُ وَأَخَذَ الْخُبْزَ وَنَاوَلَهُمْ، وَكَذلِكَ السَّمَكَ. 14 هذِهِ هِيَ الْمَرَّةُ الثَّالِثَةُ الَّتِي أَظْهَرَ فِيهَا يَسُوعُ نَفْسَهُ لِتَلامِيذِهِ بَعْدَمَا قَامَ مِنَ الأَمْوَاتِ.

15 وَبَعْدَمَا أَكَلُوا سَأَلَ يَسُوعُ سِمْعَانَ بُطْرُسَ: «يَا سِمْعَانُ بْنَ يُونَا، أَتُحِبُّنِي أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا يُحِبُّنِي هؤُلاءِ؟» فَأَجَابَهُ «نَعَمْ يَا رَبُّ، أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنِّي أُحِبُّكَ!» فَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَطْعِمْ حُمْلانِي!» 16 ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ ثَانِيَةً: «يَا سِمْعَانُ بْنَ يُونَا، أَتُحِبُّنِي؟» فَأَجَابَهُ: «نَعَمْ يَا رَبُّ. أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنِّي أُحِبُّكَ!» قَالَ لَهُ: «ارْعَ خِرَافِي» 17 فَسَأَلَهُ مَرَّةً ثَالِثَةً: «يَا سِمْعَانُ بْنَ يُونَا، أَتُحِبُّنِي؟» فَحَزِنَ بُطْرُسُ لأَنَّ يَسُوعَ قَالَ لَهُ فِي الْمَرَّةِ الثَّالِثَةِ: «أَتُحِبُّنِي». وَقَالَ لَهُ: «يَا رَبُّ، أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ. أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنِّي أُحِبُّكَ!» فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «أَطْعِمْ خِرَافِي! 18 الْحَقَّ الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكَ: إِنَّكَ لَمَّا كُنْتَ شَابّاً كُنْتَ تَرْبِطُ حِزَامَكَ عَلَى وَسَطِكَ وَتَذْهَبُ حَيْثُ تُرِيدُ. وَلكِنْ عِنْدَمَا تَصِيرُ شَيْخاً فَإِنَّكَ تَمُدُّ يَدَيْكَ، وَآخَرُ يَرْبُطُ حِزَامَكَ وَيَذْهَبُ بِكَ حَيْثُ لَا تُرِيدُ!» 19 وَقَدْ قَالَ يَسُوعُ هَذَا إِشَارَةً إِلَى الْمِيتَةِ الَّتِي سَوْفَ يَمُوتُهَا بُطْرُسُ فَيُمَجِّدُ بِها اللهَ. وَلَمَّا قَالَ لَهُ ذلِكَ، قَالَ لَهُ: «اتْبَعْنِي».

20 وَنَظَرَ بُطْرُسُ وَرَاءَهُ، فَرَأَى التِّلْمِيذَ الَّذِي كَانَ يَسُوعُ يُحِبُّهُ يَتْبَعُهُمَا، وَهُوَ التِّلْمِيذُ الَّذِي مَالَ إِلَى صَدْرِ يَسُوعَ فِي أَثْنَاءِ الْعَشَاءِ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، مَنْ هُوَ الَّذِي سَيَخُونُكَ؟» 21 فَلَمَّا رَآهُ بُطْرُسُ سَأَلَ يَسُوعَ: «يَا رَبُّ وَهَذَا، مَاذَا يَكُونُ لَهُ؟» 22 أَجَابَهُ يَسُوعُ: «لَوْ شِئْتُ أَنْ يَبْقَى حَتَّى أَرْجِعَ، فَمَا شَأْنُكَ؟ اتْبَعْنِي أَنْتَ!» 23 فَشَاعَ خَبَرٌ بَيْنَ الإِخْوَةِ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ التِّلْمِيذَ لَنْ يَمُوتَ. وَلكِنَّ يَسُوعَ لَمْ يَقُلْ لِبُطْرُسَ: «إِنَّهُ لَنْ يَمُوتَ!» بَلْ قَالَ: «لَوْ شِئْتُ أَنْ يَبْقَى حَتَّى أَرْجِعَ، فَمَا شَأْنُكَ؟»

24 هَذَا التِّلْمِيذُ هُوَ الَّذِي يَشْهَدُ بِهذِهِ الأُمُورِ، وَقَدْ دَوَّنَهَا هُنَا. وَنَحْنُ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ شَهَادَتَهُ حَقٌّ.

25 وَهُنَاكَ أُمُورٌ أُخْرَى كَثِيرَةٌ عَمِلَهَا يَسُوعُ، أَظُنُّ أَنَّهَا لَوْ دُوِّنَتْ وَاحِدَةً فَوَاحِدَةً، لَمَا كَانَ الْعَالَمُ كُلُّهُ يَسَعُ مَا دُوِّنَ مِنْ كُتُبٍ!

19 Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.

And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe,

And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands.

Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith unto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in him.

Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!

When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.

The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.

When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;

And went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.

10 Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?

11 Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin.

12 And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar's friend: whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.

13 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.

14 And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King!

15 But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.

16 Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.

17 And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:

18 Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.

19 And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was Jesus Of Nazareth The King Of The Jews.

20 This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin.

21 Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews.

22 Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.

23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.

24 They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.

25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.

26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!

27 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.

28 After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.

29 Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth.

30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

31 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

32 Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him.

33 But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:

34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.

35 And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe.

36 For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.

37 And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.

38 And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus.

39 And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.

40 Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.

41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid.

42 There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.

20 The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.

Then she runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him.

Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulchre.

So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.

And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.

Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,

And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.

Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed.

For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.

10 Then the disciples went away again unto their own home.

11 But Mary stood without at the sepulchre weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down, and looked into the sepulchre,

12 And seeth two angels in white sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.

13 And they say unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? She saith unto them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him.

14 And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.

15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.

16 Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master.

17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.

18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken these things unto her.

19 Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

20 And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord.

21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.

22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:

23 Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.

24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.

25 The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.

26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.

27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.

28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.

29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

30 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:

31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.

21 After these things Jesus shewed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and on this wise shewed he himself.

There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two other of his disciples.

Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing.

But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus.

Then Jesus saith unto them, Children, have ye any meat? They answered him, No.

And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes.

Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fisher's coat unto him, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea.

And the other disciples came in a little ship; (for they were not far from land, but as it were two hundred cubits,) dragging the net with fishes.

As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread.

10 Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now caught.

11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken.

12 Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.

13 Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise.

14 This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples, after that he was risen from the dead.

15 So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.

16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep.

17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.

18 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdest thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest not.

19 This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me.

20 Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following; which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he that betrayeth thee?

21 Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do?

22 Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me.

23 Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee?

24 This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true.

25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.

12 وَالآنَ، مَادَامَ يُبَشَّرُ بِأَنَّ الْمَسِيحَ قَامَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَمْوَاتِ، فَكَيْفَ يَقُولُ بَعْضُكُمْ إِنَّهُ لَا قِيَامَةَ لِلأَمْوَاتِ؟ 13 فَإِنْ كَانَتْ قِيَامَةُ الأَمْوَاتِ غَيْرَ مَوْجُودَةٍ، فَمَعْنَى ذَلِكَ أَنَّ الْمَسِيحَ لَمْ يَقُمْ أَيْضاً! 14 وَلَوْ لَمْ يَكُنِ الْمَسِيحُ قَدْ قَامَ، لَكَانَ تَبْشِيرُنَا عَبَثاً وَإِيمَانُكُمْ عَبَثاً، 15 وَلَكَانَ تَبَيَّنَ عِنْدَئِذٍ أَنَّنَا شُهُودُ زُورٍ عَلَى اللهِ، إِذْ إِنَّنَا شَهِدْنَا عَلَى اللهِ أَنَّهُ أَقَامَ الْمَسِيحَ، وَهُوَ لَمْ يُقِمْهُ لَوْ صَحَّ أَنَّ الأَمْوَاتَ لَا يُقَامُونَ. 16 إِذَنْ، لَوْ كَانَ الأَمْوَاتُ لَا يُقَامُونَ، لَكَانَ الْمَسِيحُ لَمْ يَقُمْ أَيْضاً. 17 وَلَوْ لَمْ يَكُنِ الْمَسِيحُ قَدْ قَامَ، لَكَانَ إِيمَانُكُمْ عَبَثاً، وَلَكُنْتُمْ بَعْدُ فِي خَطَايَاكُمْ، 18 وَلَكَانَ الَّذِينَ رَقَدُوا فِي الْمَسِيحِ قَدْ هَلَكُوا! 19 وَلَوْ كَانَ رَجَاؤُنَا فِي الْمَسِيحِ يَقْتَصِرُ عَلَى هَذِهِ الْحَيَاةِ، لَكُنَّا أَشْقَى النَّاسِ جَمِيعاً! 20 أَمَّا الآنَ فَالْمَسِيحُ قَدْ قَامَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَمْوَاتِ بِكْراً لِلرَّاقِدِينَ. 21 فَبِمَا أَنَّ الْمَوْتَ كَانَ بِإِنْسَانٍ، فَإِنَّ قِيَامَةَ الأَمْوَاتِ أَيْضاً تَكُونُ بِإِنْسَانٍ. 22 فَإِنَّهُ، كَمَا يَمُوتُ الْجَمِيعُ فِي آدَمَ، فَكَذَلِكَ سَيَحْيَى الْجَمِيعُ فِي الْمَسِيحِ، 23 عَلَى أَنَّ لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ رُتْبَتَهُ: فَأَوَّلاً الْمَسِيحُ بِصِفَتِهِ الْبِكْرَ؛ وَبَعْدَهُ خَاصَّتُهُ لَدَى رُجُوعِهِ، 24 وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ الآخِرَةُ حِينَ يُسَلِّمُ الْمَسِيحُ الْمُلْكَ لِلهِ الآبِ بَعْدَ أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدْ أَبَادَ كُلَّ رَئَاسَةٍ وَكُلَّ سُلْطَةٍ وَكُلَّ قُوَّةٍ. 25 فَإِنَّهُ لابُدَّ أَنْ يَمْلِكَ «إِلَى أَنْ يَضَعَ جَمِيعَ الأَعْدَاءِ تَحْتَ قَدَمَيْهِ». 26 وَآخِرُ عَدُوٍّ يُبَادُ هُوَ الْمَوْتُ، 27 ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّهُ قَدْ «أَخْضَعَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ تَحْتَ قَدَمَيْهِ». وَلَكِنْ، فِي قَوْلِهِ إِنَّ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ قَدْ أُخْضِعَ، فَمِنَ الْوَاضِحِ أَنَّهُ يَسْتَثْنِي اللهَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ خَاضِعاً لِلابْنِ. 28 وَعِنْدَمَا يَتِمُّ إِخْضَاعُ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ لِلابْنِ، فَإِنَّ الابْنَ نَفْسَهُ سَيَخْضَعُ لِلَّذِي أَخْضَعَ لَهُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ، لِكَيْ يَكُونَ اللهُ هُوَ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ!

29 وَالآنَ، إِنْ صَحَّ أَنَّ الأَمْوَاتَ لَا يَقُومُونَ أَبَداً، فَمَا مَعْنَى مَا يَفْعَلُهُ الَّذِينَ يَعْتَمِدُونَ بَدَلَ الَّذِينَ يَمُوتُونَ؟ لِمَاذَا إِذَنْ يَعْتَمِدُونَ بَدَلاً مِنْهُمْ؟ 30 وَلِمَاذَا نُعَرِّضُ نَحْنُ أَنْفُسَنَا لِلْخَطَرِ كُلَّ سَاعَةٍ؟ 31 فَبِحَسَبِ افْتِخَارِي بِكُمْ فِي الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ رَبِّنَا، أَشْهَدُ أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ أَنِّي أَمُوتُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ! 32 وَلَوْ كُنْتُ بِمَنْطِقِ الْبَشَرِ قَدْ تَعَرَّضْتُ لِلْمَوْتِ فِي أَفَسُسَ بَيْنَ مَخَالِبِ الْوُحُوشِ، فَأَيُّ نَفْعٍ يَعُودُ عَلَيَّ إِنْ كَانَ الَّذِينَ يَمُوتُونَ لَا يَقُومُونَ؟ وَلِمَ لَا «نَأْكُلُ وَنَشْرَبُ، لأَنَّنَا غَداً نَمُوتُ؟» 33 لَا تَنْقَادُوا إِلَى الضَّلالِ: إِنَّ الْمُعَاشَرَاتِ الرَّدِيئَةَ تُفْسِدُ الأَخْلاقَ الْجَيِّدَةَ! 34 عُودُوا إِلَى الصَّوَابِ كَمَا يَجِبُ وَلا تُخْطِئُوا، فَإِنَّ بَعْضاً مِنْكُمْ يَجْهَلُونَ اللهَ تَمَاماً أَقُولُ هَذَا لِكَيْ تَخْجَلُوا!

جسد القيامة

35 وَلَكِنَّ أَحَداً قَدْ يَقُولُ: «كَيْفَ يُقَامُ الأَمْوَاتُ؟ وَبِأَيِّ جِسْمٍ يَعُودُونَ؟» 36 يَا غَافِلُ! إِنَّ مَا تَزْرَعُهُ لَا يَحْيَا إِلّا بَعْدَ أَنْ يَمُوتَ. 37 وَمَا تَزْرَعُهُ لَيْسَ هُوَ الْجِسْمَ الَّذِي سَيَطْلُعُ بَلْ مُجَرَّدُ حَبَّةٍ مِنَ الْحِنْطَةِ مَثَلاً أَوْ غَيْرِهَا مِنَ البُزُورِ. 38 ثُمَّ يُعْطِيهَا اللهُ الْجِسْمَ الَّذِي يُرِيدُ، كَمَا يُعْطِي كُلَّ نَوْعٍ مِنَ الْبُزُورِ جِسْمَهُ الْخَاصَّ. 39 وَلَيْسَ لِلأَجْسَادِ كُلِّهَا شَكْلٌ وَاحِدٌ بَلْ لِلنَّاسِ جَسَدٌ وَلِلْحَيَوَانَاتِ جَسَدٌ آخَرُ وَلِلسَّمَكِ آخَرُ وَلِلطَّيْرِ آخَرُ. 40 ثُمَّ إِنَّ هُنَاكَ أَجْسَاماً سَمَاوِيَّةً وَأَجْسَاماً أَرْضِيَّةً. وَلَكِنَّ الأَجْسَامَ السَّمَاوِيَّةَ لَهَا بَهَاءٌ، وَالأَرْضِيَّةَ لَهَا بَهَاءٌ مُخْتَلِفٌ. 41 فَالشَّمْسُ لَهَا بَهَاءٌ، وَالْقَمَرُ لَهُ بَهَاءٌ آخَرُ، وَالنُّجُومُ لَهَا بَهَاءٌ مُخْتَلِفٌ، لأَنَّ كُلَّ نَجْمٍ يَخْتَلِفُ عَنِ الآخَرِ بِبَهَائِهِ. 42 وَهَكَذَا الْحَالُ فِي قِيَامَةِ الأَمْوَاتِ: يُزْرَعُ الْجَسَدُ مُنْحَلًّا، وَيُقَامُ غَيْرَ مُنْحَلٍّ، 43 يُزْرَعُ مُهَاناً، وَيُقَامُ مَجِيداً، يُزْرَعُ ضَعِيفاً، وَيُقَامُ قَوِيًّا، 44 يُزْرَعُ جِسْماً مَادِّيًّا، وَيُقَامُ جِسْماً رُوحِيًّا. فَبِمَا أَنَّ هُنَاكَ جِسْماً مَادِّيًّا، فَهُنَاكَ أَيْضاً جِسْمٌ رُوحِيٌّ. 45 فَهكَذَا أَيْضاً قَدْ كُتِبَ: «صَارَ الإِنْسَانُ الأَوَّلُ، آدَمُ، نَفْساً حَيَّةً» وَأَمَّا آدَمُ الأَخِيرُ فَهُوَ روحٌ بَاعِثٌ لِلْحَيَاةِ. 46 عَلَى أَنَّ الرُّوحِيَّ لَمْ يَكُنْ أَوَّلاً، بَلْ جَاءَ الْمَادِّيُّ أَوَّلاً ثُمَّ الرُّوحِيُّ: 47 الإِنْسَانُ الأَوَّلُ مِنَ الأَرْضِ وَقَدْ صُنِعَ مِنَ التُّرَابِ؛ أَمَّا الإِنْسَانُ الثَّانِي فَهُوَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ. 48 فَعَلَى مِثَالِ الْمَصْنُوعِ مِنَ التُّرَابِ، سَيَكُونُ الْمَصْنُوعُونَ مِنَ التُّرَابِ، وَعَلَى مِثَالِ السَّمَاوِيِّ سَيَكُونُ السَّمَاوِيُّونَ. 49 وَمِثْلَمَا حَمَلْنَا صُورَةَ الْمَصْنُوعِ مِنَ التُّرَابِ، سَنَحْمِلُ أَيْضاً صُورَةَ السَّمَاوِيِّ.

50 ثُمَّ إِنِّي، أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ، أُؤَكِّدُ لَكُمْ أَنَّ الأَجْسَامَ ذَاتَ اللَّحْمِ وَالدَّمِ لَا يُمْكِنُهَا أَنْ تَرِثَ مَلَكُوتَ اللهِ، كَمَا لَا يُمْكِنُ لِلْمُنْحَلِّ أَنْ يَرِثَ غَيْرَ الْمُنْحَلِّ.

51 وَهَا أَنَا أَكْشِفُ لَكُمْ سِرّاً: إِنَّنَا لَنْ نَرْقُدَ جَمِيعاً، وَلَكِنَّنَا سَنَتَغَيَّرُ جَمِيعاً، 52 فِي لَحْظَةٍ، بَلْ فِي طَرْفَةِ عَيْنٍ عِنْدَمَا يُنْفَخُ فِي الْبُوقِ الأَخِيرِ. فَإِنَّهُ سَوْفَ يُنْفَخُ فِي الْبُوقِ، فَيَقُومُ الأَمْوَاتُ بِلا انْحِلالٍ. وَأَمَّا نَحْنُ، فَسَنَتَغَيَّرُ. 53 فَلابُدَّ لِهَذَا الْجِسْمِ الْقَابِلِ لِلانْحِلالِ أَنْ يَلْبَسَ عَدَمَ انْحِلالٍ، وَلِهَذَا الْفَانِي أَنْ يَلْبَسَ خُلُوداً. 54 وَبَعْدَ أَنْ يَلْبَسَ هَذَا الْمُنْحَلُّ عَدَمَ انْحِلالٍ، وَهَذَا الْفَانِي خُلُوداً، تَتِمُّ الْكَلِمَةُ الَّتِي قَدْ كُتِبَتْ: «ابْتُلِعَ الْمَوْتُ فِي النَّصْرِ!» 55 فَأَيْنَ، يَا مَوْتُ، شَوْكَتُكَ؟ وَأَيْنَ، يَا مَوْتُ نَصْرُكَ؟ 56 وَشَوْكَةُ الْمَوْتِ إِنَّمَا هِيَ الْخَطِيئَةُ، وَقُوَّةُ الْخَطِيئَةِ إِنَّمَا هِيَ الشَّرِيعَةُ. 57 وَلَكِنِ الشُّكْرُ لِلهِ الَّذِي يَمْنَحُنَا النَّصْرَ بِرَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ! 58 إِذَنْ، يَا إِخْوَتِي الأَحِبَّاءَ، كُونُوا رَاسِخِينَ غَيْرَ مُتَزَحْزِحِينَ، كَثِيرِي الاجْتِهَادِ فِي عَمَلِ الرَّبِّ دَائِماً، عَالِمِينَ أَنَّ جَهْدَكُمْ فِي الرَّبِّ لَيْسَ عَبَثاً!

15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:

After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.

After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.

And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.

For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.

12 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?

13 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:

14 And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.

15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not.

16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:

17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.

18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.

19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.

20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.

21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.

22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.

24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.

25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.

26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.

27 For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.

28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

29 Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?

30 And why stand we in jeopardy every hour?

31 I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.

32 If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die.

33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.

34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.

35 But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?

36 Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:

37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:

38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.

39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.

40 There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.

41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.

42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:

43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:

44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.

45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.

46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.

47 The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven.

48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.

49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?

56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.

57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

12 وَالآنَ، مَادَامَ يُبَشَّرُ بِأَنَّ الْمَسِيحَ قَامَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَمْوَاتِ، فَكَيْفَ يَقُولُ بَعْضُكُمْ إِنَّهُ لَا قِيَامَةَ لِلأَمْوَاتِ؟ 13 فَإِنْ كَانَتْ قِيَامَةُ الأَمْوَاتِ غَيْرَ مَوْجُودَةٍ، فَمَعْنَى ذَلِكَ أَنَّ الْمَسِيحَ لَمْ يَقُمْ أَيْضاً! 14 وَلَوْ لَمْ يَكُنِ الْمَسِيحُ قَدْ قَامَ، لَكَانَ تَبْشِيرُنَا عَبَثاً وَإِيمَانُكُمْ عَبَثاً، 15 وَلَكَانَ تَبَيَّنَ عِنْدَئِذٍ أَنَّنَا شُهُودُ زُورٍ عَلَى اللهِ، إِذْ إِنَّنَا شَهِدْنَا عَلَى اللهِ أَنَّهُ أَقَامَ الْمَسِيحَ، وَهُوَ لَمْ يُقِمْهُ لَوْ صَحَّ أَنَّ الأَمْوَاتَ لَا يُقَامُونَ. 16 إِذَنْ، لَوْ كَانَ الأَمْوَاتُ لَا يُقَامُونَ، لَكَانَ الْمَسِيحُ لَمْ يَقُمْ أَيْضاً. 17 وَلَوْ لَمْ يَكُنِ الْمَسِيحُ قَدْ قَامَ، لَكَانَ إِيمَانُكُمْ عَبَثاً، وَلَكُنْتُمْ بَعْدُ فِي خَطَايَاكُمْ، 18 وَلَكَانَ الَّذِينَ رَقَدُوا فِي الْمَسِيحِ قَدْ هَلَكُوا! 19 وَلَوْ كَانَ رَجَاؤُنَا فِي الْمَسِيحِ يَقْتَصِرُ عَلَى هَذِهِ الْحَيَاةِ، لَكُنَّا أَشْقَى النَّاسِ جَمِيعاً! 20 أَمَّا الآنَ فَالْمَسِيحُ قَدْ قَامَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَمْوَاتِ بِكْراً لِلرَّاقِدِينَ. 21 فَبِمَا أَنَّ الْمَوْتَ كَانَ بِإِنْسَانٍ، فَإِنَّ قِيَامَةَ الأَمْوَاتِ أَيْضاً تَكُونُ بِإِنْسَانٍ. 22 فَإِنَّهُ، كَمَا يَمُوتُ الْجَمِيعُ فِي آدَمَ، فَكَذَلِكَ سَيَحْيَى الْجَمِيعُ فِي الْمَسِيحِ، 23 عَلَى أَنَّ لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ رُتْبَتَهُ: فَأَوَّلاً الْمَسِيحُ بِصِفَتِهِ الْبِكْرَ؛ وَبَعْدَهُ خَاصَّتُهُ لَدَى رُجُوعِهِ، 24 وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ الآخِرَةُ حِينَ يُسَلِّمُ الْمَسِيحُ الْمُلْكَ لِلهِ الآبِ بَعْدَ أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدْ أَبَادَ كُلَّ رَئَاسَةٍ وَكُلَّ سُلْطَةٍ وَكُلَّ قُوَّةٍ. 25 فَإِنَّهُ لابُدَّ أَنْ يَمْلِكَ «إِلَى أَنْ يَضَعَ جَمِيعَ الأَعْدَاءِ تَحْتَ قَدَمَيْهِ». 26 وَآخِرُ عَدُوٍّ يُبَادُ هُوَ الْمَوْتُ، 27 ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّهُ قَدْ «أَخْضَعَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ تَحْتَ قَدَمَيْهِ». وَلَكِنْ، فِي قَوْلِهِ إِنَّ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ قَدْ أُخْضِعَ، فَمِنَ الْوَاضِحِ أَنَّهُ يَسْتَثْنِي اللهَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ خَاضِعاً لِلابْنِ. 28 وَعِنْدَمَا يَتِمُّ إِخْضَاعُ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ لِلابْنِ، فَإِنَّ الابْنَ نَفْسَهُ سَيَخْضَعُ لِلَّذِي أَخْضَعَ لَهُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ، لِكَيْ يَكُونَ اللهُ هُوَ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ!

15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:

After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.

After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.

And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.

For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.

12 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?

13 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:

14 And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.

15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not.

16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:

17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.

18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.

19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.

20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.

21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.

22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.

24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.

25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.

26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.

27 For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.

28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
