Mác 15
Vietnamese Bible: Easy-to-Read Version
Phi-lát gạn hỏi Chúa Giê-xu(A)
15 Sáng sớm hôm sau các giới trưởng tế, các bô lão, các giáo sư luật và toàn thể hội đồng Do-thái lập mưu. Họ trói Ngài lại, dẫn đi giải qua cho Phi-lát là quan tổng đốc.
2 Phi-lát hỏi Ngài, “Anh có phải là vua dân Do-thái không?”
Chúa Giê-xu đáp, “Đúng như lời quan nói.”
3 Các giới trưởng tế tố cáo Ngài đủ điều. 4 Phi-lát hỏi Chúa Giê-xu một câu nữa, “Anh thấy họ tố cáo anh đủ thứ không? Anh không chịu đối đáp gì cả sao?”
5 Nhưng Chúa Giê-xu im lặng khiến Phi-lát vô cùng ngạc nhiên.
Phi-lát tìm cách tha Chúa Giê-xu(B)
6 Cứ mỗi năm vào dịp lễ Vượt qua, quan tổng đốc thường hay ân xá cho một tên tù phạm theo ý dân xin. 7 Lúc ấy có tên Ba-ra-ba đang ngồi tù với mấy tên phản loạn. Chúng đã phạm tội giết người trong một vụ bạo động. 8 Dân chúng đến xin Phi-lát ân xá cho một tù nhân theo thông lệ.
9 Nên Phi-lát hỏi họ, “Các ông có muốn tôi ân xá vua dân Do-thái không?” 10 Phi-lát biết rõ là do lòng ganh ghét mà các trưởng tế giải Chúa Giê-xu đến cho mình. 11 Nhưng các trưởng tế xúi giục dân chúng xin tha Ba-ra-ba chứ đừng tha Chúa Giê-xu.
12 Phi-lát lại hỏi dân chúng một lần nữa, “Còn người mà các anh gọi là vua dân Do-thái thì tôi phải xử làm sao đây?”
13 Dân chúng quát lớn, “Đóng đinh hắn đi!”
14 Phi-lát hỏi, “Tại sao? Ông ta đã làm điều gì phạm pháp đâu?”
Nhưng họ lại hét lớn hơn nữa, “Đóng đinh hắn đi!”
15 Phi-lát muốn làm vừa lòng dân chúng nên tha Ba-ra-ba cho họ. Sau khi cho đánh đòn Chúa Giê-xu, ông giao Ngài cho các tên lính mang đi đóng đinh.
16 Bọn lính mang Chúa Giê-xu vào trong dinh tổng đốc gọi là tổng dinh, và tập họp tất cả các quân sĩ lại. 17 Chúng lấy áo dài tím mặc cho Chúa Giê-xu và dùng nhành gai nhọn làm mão đội lên đầu Ngài. 18 Rồi chúng bắt đầu kêu, “Muôn tâu, vua dân Do-thái!” 19 Bọn lính lấy gậy đập đầu Ngài nhiều lần. Chúng nhổ vào mặt Ngài và chế giễu Ngài bằng cách quì gối xuống giả vờ bái lạy Ngài. 20 Sau khi chế giễu xong bọn lính cởi áo tím của Ngài ra và mặc lại áo quần cho Ngài. Rồi chúng dẫn Ngài ra khỏi dinh để mang đi đóng đinh.
Chúa Giê-xu bị đóng đinh(C)
21 Có một người tên Xi-môn gốc xứ Xi-ren, cha của A-lịch-sơn và Ru-phu, từ ngoài đồng trở về thành. Bọn lính bắt ông ta phải vác cây thập tự thế cho Chúa Giê-xu. 22 Chúng đưa Ngài đến một nơi gọi là Gô-gô-tha nghĩa là Đồi Sọ. 23 Bọn lính định cho Chúa Giê-xu uống rượu trộn với mộc dược, nhưng Ngài không chịu uống. 24 Các tên lính đóng đinh Chúa Giê-xu và chia áo quần của Ngài bằng cách bắt thăm xem ai được phần nào.
25 Lúc chúng đóng đinh Chúa Giê-xu là chín giờ sáng. 26 Có một bảng treo lên ghi án Ngài như sau: vua dân do-thái. 27 Chúng cũng treo hai tên cướp lên hai cây thập tự kế bên Ngài, một tên bên phải, một tên bên trái. 28 [a] 29 Người qua kẻ lại sỉ nhục Ngài và lắc đầu, “Ê, anh nói anh sẽ phá đền thờ rồi xây lại trong ba ngày, 30 Bây giờ hãy tự cứu mình đi! Hãy xuống khỏi cây thập tự đi!”
31 Các giới trưởng tế và các giáo sư luật cũng chế giễu Ngài. Họ bảo nhau, “Hắn cứu người khác được mà cứu mình không được. 32 Nếu hắn thật là Đấng Cứu Thế, vua dân Ít-ra-en thì có giỏi nhảy xuống khỏi cây thập tự đi. Làm được vậy chúng ta mới tin.” Hai tên cướp bị đóng đinh hai bên Ngài cũng sỉ nhục Ngài.
Chúa Giê-xu Chết(D)
33 Từ giữa trưa, khắp xứ đều tối mịt hơn ba tiếng đồng hồ. 34 Đến ba giờ chiều Chúa Giê-xu kêu lớn, “Ê-lô-i, Ê-lô-i, la-ma xa-bách-tha-ni.” Nghĩa là, “Thượng Đế của tôi ơi, Thượng Đế của tôi ơi, sao Ngài bỏ tôi?” [b]
35 Mấy người đứng đó nghe vậy bảo nhau rằng, “Nghe kìa, hắn đang kêu Ê-li.” [c]
36 Có người ở đó chạy đi lấy một miếng bông đá, nhúng đầy giấm, cột vào một cái que đưa lên cho Ngài uống và bảo, “Chúng ta hãy xem thử Ê-li có đến đem hắn xuống khỏi cây thập tự không.”
37 Chúa Giê-xu kêu lên một tiếng lớn nữa rồi qua đời.
38 Cái màn trong đền thờ bị xé toạc làm đôi từ trên xuống dưới. 39 Viên sĩ quan đứng trước cây thập tự của Chúa Giê-xu thấy Ngài chết như thế liền bảo, “Người nầy đúng là Con Thượng Đế!”
40 Có mấy người đàn bà đứng xa xa nhìn; trong số đó có Ma-ri Ma-đơ-len, Xa-lô-mê, Ma-ri mẹ của Gia-cơ (Gia-cơ là con út của Ma-ri) và Giô-xê. 41 Các bà nầy đã theo Chúa Giê-xu từ khi Ngài ở miền Ga-li-lê và phục vụ Ngài. Nhiều người đàn bà khác lên Giê-ru-sa-lem với Ngài cũng có mặt ở đó.
Chúa Giê-xu được chôn cất(E)
42 Hôm ấy là Ngày Chuẩn Bị, nghĩa là hôm trước ngày Sa-bát. Buổi chiều ngày ấy, 43 Giô-xép vùng A-ri-ma-thia can đảm đến gặp Phi-lát xin xác Chúa Giê-xu. Giô-xép, một hội viên quan trọng của Hội Đồng Do-thái, là một trong những người trông chờ Nước Trời hiện đến. 44 Phi-lát ngạc nhiên khi nghe Chúa Giê-xu chết nhanh như thế, nên ông gọi một sĩ quan hỏi để biết Ngài đã chết lâu chưa. 45 Sau khi nghe viên sĩ quan báo cáo thì Phi-lát giao xác Ngài cho Giô-xép. 46 Giô-xép có mua vải liệm, nên sau khi mang xác Chúa Giê-xu xuống khỏi cây thập tự thì quấn trong vải ấy. Ông đặt xác Ngài vào ngôi mộ đục từ vách đá. Rồi ông lăn một tảng đá lớn chận cửa mộ lại. 47 Ma-ri Ma-đơ-len và Ma-ri mẹ của Giô-xê nhìn thấy chỗ chôn Chúa.

Mark 15
1599 Geneva Bible
15 1 Of the things Christ suffered under Pilate. 11 Barabbas is preferred before Christ. 15 Pilate delivereth Christ to be crucified. 17 He is crowned with thorns. 19 They spit on him, and mock him. 21 Simon of Cyrene carrieth Christ’s cross. 27 Christ is crucified between two thieves. 26 He is railed at. 37 He giveth up the ghost. 43 Joseph burieth him.
1 And (A)[a]anon in the dawning, the high Priests held a Council with the Elders, and the Scribes, and the whole Council, and bound Jesus, and led him away, and [b]delivered him to Pilate.
2 Then Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered, and said unto him, Thou sayest it.
3 And the high Priests accused him of many things.
4 (B)Wherefore Pilate asked him again, saying, Answered thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against thee.
5 But Jesus answered no more at all, so that Pilate marveled.
6 Now at the feast, Pilate [c]did deliver a prisoner unto them, whomsoever they would desire.
7 Then there was one named Barabbas, which was bound with his fellows, that had made insurrection, who in the insurrection had committed murder.
8 And the people cried aloud, and began to desire that he would do as he had ever done unto them.
9 Then Pilate answered them, and said, Will ye that I let loose unto you the King of the Jews?
10 For he knew that the high Priests had delivered him of envy.
11 But the high Priests had moved the people to desire that he would rather deliver Barabbas unto them.
12 And Pilate answered, and said again unto them, What will ye then that I do with him, whom ye call the King of the Jews?
13 And they cried again, Crucify him.
14 Then Pilate said unto them, But what evil hath he done? And they cried the more fervently, Crucify him.
15 So Pilate willing to content the people, loosed them Barabbas, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, that he might be crucified.
16 Then the soldiers led him away into the hall, which is the common hall, and called together the whole band,
17 [d]And clad him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head,
18 And began to salute him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews.
19 And they smote him on the head with a reed, and spat upon him, and bowed the knees, and did him reverence.
20 And when they had mocked him, they took the purple off him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.
21 (C)And they [e]compelled one that passed by, called Simon of Cyrene (which came out of the country, and was father of Alexander and Rufus) to bear his cross.
22 (D)[f]And they brought him to a place named Golgotha, which is by interpretation, the place of dead mens’ skulls.
23 And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not.
24 (E)[g]And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots for them, what every man should have.
25 And it was the third hour when they crucified him.
26 And the title of his cause was written above, THAT KING OF THE JEWS.
27 They crucified also with him two thieves, the one on the right hand, and the other on his left.
28 Thus the Scripture was fulfilled, which saith, (F)And he was counted among the wicked.
29 And they that went by, railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, (G)Hey, thou that destroyest the Temple, and buildest it in three days,
30 Save thyself, and come down from the cross.
31 Likewise also even the high Priests mocking, said among themselves with the Scribes, He saved other men, himself he cannot save.
32 Let Christ the king of Israel now come down from the cross, that we may see, and believe. They also that were crucified with him, reviled him.
33 ¶ Now when the sixth hour was come, [h]darkness arose over [i]all the land until the ninth hour.
34 And at the [j]ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, (H)Eloi, Eloi, lama-sabachthani? which is by interpretation, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calleth Elijah.
36 And one ran, and filled a (I)sponge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let him alone: let us see if Elijah will come, and take him down.
37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.
38 And the veil of the Temple was rent in twain, from the top to the bottom.
39 Now when the Centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he thus crying gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.
40 ¶ [k]There were also women which beheld afar off, among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less, and of Joses, and Salome,
41 Which also when he was in Galilee, (J)followed him, and ministered unto him, and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem.
42 (K)And now when the night was come (because it was the day of the preparation that is before the Sabbath)
43 (L)Joseph of Arimathea, an [l]honorable counselor, which also looked for the kingdom of God, came, and went in [m]boldly unto Pilate, and asked the body of Jesus.
44 And Pilate marveled, if he were already dead, and called unto him the Centurion, and asked of him whether he had been any while dead.
45 And when he knew the truth of the Centurion, he gave the body to Joseph:
46 Who bought a linen cloth, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulcher:
47 And Mary Magdalene, and Mary Joses’ mother, beheld where he should be laid.

New International Version
Jesus Before Pilate(A)
15 Very early in the morning, the chief priests, with the elders, the teachers of the law(B) and the whole Sanhedrin,(C) made their plans. So they bound Jesus, led him away and handed him over to Pilate.(D)
2 “Are you the king of the Jews?”(E) asked Pilate.
“You have said so,” Jesus replied.
3 The chief priests accused him of many things. 4 So again Pilate asked him, “Aren’t you going to answer? See how many things they are accusing you of.”
5 But Jesus still made no reply,(F) and Pilate was amazed.
6 Now it was the custom at the festival to release a prisoner whom the people requested. 7 A man called Barabbas was in prison with the insurrectionists who had committed murder in the uprising. 8 The crowd came up and asked Pilate to do for them what he usually did.
9 “Do you want me to release to you the king of the Jews?”(G) asked Pilate, 10 knowing it was out of self-interest that the chief priests had handed Jesus over to him. 11 But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have Pilate release Barabbas(H) instead.
12 “What shall I do, then, with the one you call the king of the Jews?” Pilate asked them.
13 “Crucify him!” they shouted.
14 “Why? What crime has he committed?” asked Pilate.
But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify him!”
15 Wanting to satisfy the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas to them. He had Jesus flogged,(I) and handed him over to be crucified.
The Soldiers Mock Jesus(J)
16 The soldiers led Jesus away into the palace(K) (that is, the Praetorium) and called together the whole company of soldiers. 17 They put a purple robe on him, then twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on him. 18 And they began to call out to him, “Hail, king of the Jews!”(L) 19 Again and again they struck him on the head with a staff and spit on him. Falling on their knees, they paid homage to him. 20 And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple robe and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him out(M) to crucify him.
The Crucifixion of Jesus(N)
21 A certain man from Cyrene,(O) Simon, the father of Alexander and Rufus,(P) was passing by on his way in from the country, and they forced him to carry the cross.(Q) 22 They brought Jesus to the place called Golgotha (which means “the place of the skull”). 23 Then they offered him wine mixed with myrrh,(R) but he did not take it. 24 And they crucified him. Dividing up his clothes, they cast lots(S) to see what each would get.
25 It was nine in the morning when they crucified him. 26 The written notice of the charge against him read: the king of the jews.(T)
27 They crucified two rebels with him, one on his right and one on his left. [28] [a] 29 Those who passed by hurled insults at him, shaking their heads(U) and saying, “So! You who are going to destroy the temple and build it in three days,(V) 30 come down from the cross and save yourself!” 31 In the same way the chief priests and the teachers of the law mocked him(W) among themselves. “He saved others,” they said, “but he can’t save himself! 32 Let this Messiah,(X) this king of Israel,(Y) come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe.” Those crucified with him also heaped insults on him.
The Death of Jesus(Z)
33 At noon, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon.(AA) 34 And at three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”).[b](AB)
35 When some of those standing near heard this, they said, “Listen, he’s calling Elijah.”
36 Someone ran, filled a sponge with wine vinegar,(AC) put it on a staff, and offered it to Jesus to drink. “Now leave him alone. Let’s see if Elijah comes to take him down,” he said.
37 With a loud cry, Jesus breathed his last.(AD)
38 The curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom.(AE) 39 And when the centurion,(AF) who stood there in front of Jesus, saw how he died,[c] he said, “Surely this man was the Son of God!”(AG)
40 Some women were watching from a distance.(AH) Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joseph,[d] and Salome.(AI) 41 In Galilee these women had followed him and cared for his needs. Many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem were also there.(AJ)
The Burial of Jesus(AK)
42 It was Preparation Day (that is, the day before the Sabbath).(AL) So as evening approached, 43 Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent member of the Council,(AM) who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God,(AN) went boldly to Pilate and asked for Jesus’ body. 44 Pilate was surprised to hear that he was already dead. Summoning the centurion, he asked him if Jesus had already died. 45 When he learned from the centurion(AO) that it was so, he gave the body to Joseph. 46 So Joseph bought some linen cloth, took down the body, wrapped it in the linen, and placed it in a tomb cut out of rock. Then he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb.(AP) 47 Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joseph(AQ) saw where he was laid.

New King James Version
Jesus Faces Pilate(A)
15 Immediately, (B)in the morning, the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council; and they bound Jesus, led Him away, and (C)delivered Him to Pilate. 2 (D)Then Pilate asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?”
He answered and said to him, “It is as you say.”
3 And the chief priests accused Him of many things, but He (E)answered nothing. 4 (F)Then Pilate asked Him again, saying, “Do You answer nothing? See how many things [a]they testify against You!” 5 (G)But Jesus still answered nothing, so that Pilate marveled.
Taking the Place of Barabbas(H)
6 Now (I)at the feast he was accustomed to releasing one prisoner to them, whomever they requested. 7 And there was one named Barabbas, who was chained with his fellow rebels; they had committed murder in the rebellion. 8 Then the multitude, [b]crying aloud, began to ask him to do just as he had always done for them. 9 But Pilate answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?” 10 For he knew that the chief priests had handed Him over because of envy.
11 But (J)the chief priests stirred up the crowd, so that he should rather release Barabbas to them. 12 Pilate answered and said to them again, “What then do you want me to do with Him whom you call the (K)King of the Jews?”
13 So they cried out again, “Crucify Him!”
14 Then Pilate said to them, “Why, (L)what evil has He done?”
But they cried out all the more, “Crucify Him!”
15 (M)So Pilate, wanting to gratify the crowd, released Barabbas to them; and he delivered Jesus, after he had scourged Him, to be (N)crucified.
The Soldiers Mock Jesus(O)
16 (P)Then the soldiers led Him away into the hall called [c]Praetorium, and they called together the whole garrison. 17 And they clothed Him with purple; and they twisted a crown of thorns, put it on His head, 18 and began to salute Him, “Hail, King of the Jews!” 19 Then they (Q)struck Him on the head with a reed and spat on Him; and bowing the knee, they worshiped Him. 20 And when they had (R)mocked Him, they took the purple off Him, put His own clothes on Him, and led Him out to crucify Him.
The King on a Cross(S)
21 (T)Then they compelled a certain man, Simon a Cyrenian, the father of Alexander and Rufus, as he was coming out of the country and passing by, to bear His cross. 22 (U)And they brought Him to the place Golgotha, which is translated, Place of a Skull. 23 (V)Then they gave Him wine mingled with myrrh to drink, but He did not take it. 24 And when they crucified Him, (W)they divided His garments, casting lots for them to determine what every man should take.
25 Now (X)it was the third hour, and they crucified Him. 26 And (Y)the inscription of His [d]accusation was written above:
THE KING OF THE JEWS.
27 (Z)With Him they also crucified two robbers, one on His right and the other on His left. 28 [e]So the Scripture was fulfilled which says, (AA)“And He was numbered with the transgressors.”
29 And (AB)those who passed by blasphemed Him, (AC)wagging their heads and saying, “Aha! (AD)You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, 30 save Yourself, and come down from the cross!”
31 Likewise the chief priests also, (AE)mocking among themselves with the scribes, said, “He saved (AF)others; Himself He cannot save. 32 Let the Christ, the King of Israel, descend now from the cross, that we may see and [f]believe.”
Even (AG)those who were crucified with Him reviled Him.
Jesus Dies on the Cross(AH)
33 Now (AI)when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. 34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is translated, (AJ)“My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
35 Some of those who stood by, when they heard that, said, “Look, He is calling for Elijah!” 36 Then (AK)someone ran and filled a sponge full of sour wine, put it on a reed, and (AL)offered it to Him to drink, saying, “Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to take Him down.”
37 (AM)And Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and breathed His last.
38 Then (AN)the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. 39 So (AO)when the centurion, who stood opposite Him, saw that [g]He cried out like this and breathed His last, he said, “Truly this Man was the Son of God!”
40 (AP)There were also women looking on (AQ)from afar, among whom were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the Less and of Joses, and Salome, 41 who also (AR)followed Him and ministered to Him when He was in Galilee, and many other women who came up with Him to Jerusalem.
Jesus Buried in Joseph’s Tomb(AS)
42 (AT)Now when evening had come, because it was the Preparation Day, that is, the day before the Sabbath, 43 Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent council member, who (AU)was himself waiting for the kingdom of God, coming and taking courage, went in to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 44 Pilate marveled that He was already dead; and summoning the centurion, he asked him if He had been dead for some time. 45 So when he found out from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph. 46 (AV)Then he bought fine linen, took Him down, and wrapped Him in the linen. And he laid Him in a tomb which had been hewn out of the rock, and rolled a stone against the door of the tomb. 47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses observed where He was laid.
