Mark 15
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
15 And immediately when it was morning, the chief priests, with the elders and scribes and the whole council, held a consultation; and when they had bound Jesus, they took Him away [[a]violently] and handed Him over to Pilate.(A)
2 And Pilate inquired of Him, Are You the King of the Jews? And He replied, It is as you say.
3 And the chief priests kept accusing Him of many things.
4 And Pilate again asked Him, Have [b]You no answer to make? See how many charges they are bringing against You!
5 But Jesus made no further answer at all, so that Pilate wondered and marveled.(B)
6 Now at the Feast he [was accustomed to] set free for them any one prisoner whom they requested.
7 And among the rioters in the prison who had committed murder in the insurrection there was a man named Barabbas.
8 And the throng came up and began asking Pilate to do as he usually did for them.
9 And he replied to them, Do you wish me to set free for you the King of the Jews?
10 For he was aware that it was [[c]because they were prompted] by envy that the chief priests had delivered Him up.
11 But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to get him to release for them Barabbas instead.
12 And again Pilate said to them, Then what shall I do with the Man Whom you call the King of the Jews?
13 And they shouted back again, Crucify Him!
14 But Pilate said to them, Why? What has He done that is evil? But they shouted with all their might all the more, Crucify Him [[d]at once]!
15 So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, set Barabbas free for them; and after having Jesus whipped, he handed [Him] over to be crucified.(C)
16 Then the soldiers led Him away to the courtyard inside the palace, that is, the Praetorium, and they called the entire detachment of soldiers together.
17 And they dressed Him in [a] purple [robe], and, weaving together a crown of thorns, they placed it on Him.
18 And they began to salute Him, Hail (greetings, good health to You, long life to You), King of the Jews!
19 And they struck His head with a staff made of a [bamboo-like] reed and spat on Him and kept bowing their knees in homage to Him.(D)
20 And when they had [finished] making sport of Him, they took the purple [robe] off of Him and put His own clothes on Him. And they led Him out [of the city] to crucify Him.
21 And they forced a passerby, Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, who was coming in from the field (country), to carry His cross.
22 And they led Him to Golgotha [in Latin: Calvary], meaning The Place of a Skull.
23 And they [attempted to] give Him wine mingled with myrrh, but He would not take it.
24 And they crucified Him; and they divided His garments and distributed them among themselves, throwing lots for them to decide who should take what.(E)
25 And it was the third hour (about nine o’clock in the morning) when they crucified Him.(F)
26 And the inscription of the accusation against Him was written above, The King of the Jews.
27 And with Him they crucified two robbers, one on [His] right hand and one on His left.
28 [e]And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, He was counted among the transgressors.(G)
29 And those who passed by kept reviling Him and reproaching Him abusively in harsh and insolent language, wagging their heads and saying, Aha! You Who would destroy the temple and build it in three days,
30 Now rescue [f]Yourself [[g]from death], coming down from the cross!
31 So also the chief priests, with the scribes, made sport of Him to one another, saying, He rescued others [[h]from death]; Himself He is unable to rescue.(H)
32 Let the Christ (the Messiah), the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see [it] and trust in and rely on Him and adhere to Him! Those who were crucified with Him also reviled and reproached Him [speaking abusively, harshly, and insolently].
33 And when the sixth hour (about midday) had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour (about three o’clock).
34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?—which means, My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me [[i]deserting Me and leaving Me helpless and abandoned]?(I)
35 And some of those standing by, [and] hearing it, said, See! He is calling Elijah!
36 And one man ran, and, filling a sponge with vinegar (a [j]mixture of sour wine and water), put it on a staff made of a [bamboo-like] reed and gave it to Him to drink, saying, Hold off! Let us see whether Elijah [does] come to take Him down.(J)
37 And Jesus uttered a loud cry, and breathed out His life.
38 And the curtain [of the Holy of Holies] of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom.
39 And when the centurion who stood facing Him saw Him expire this way, he said, [k]Really, this Man was God’s Son!
40 Now some women were there also, looking on from a distance, among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salome,
41 Who, when [Jesus] was in Galilee, were in the habit of accompanying and ministering to Him; and [there were] also many other [women] who had come up with Him to Jerusalem.
42 As evening had already come, since it was the day of Preparation, that is, [the day] before the Sabbath,(K)
43 Joseph, he of Arimathea, noble and honorable in rank and a respected member of the council (Sanhedrin), who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God, daring the consequences, took courage and ventured to go to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.
44 But Pilate wondered whether He was dead so soon, and, having called the centurion, he asked him whether [Jesus] was already dead.
45 And when he learned from the centurion [that He was indeed dead], he gave the body to Joseph.
46 And Joseph bought a [fine] linen cloth [[l]for swathing dead bodies], and, taking Him down from the cross, he [m]rolled Him up in the [fine] linen cloth and placed Him in a tomb which had been hewn out of a rock. Then he rolled a [very large] stone against the door of the tomb.(L)
47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary [the mother] of Joses were [[n]attentively] observing where He was laid.

Marcos 15
Portuguese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
O governador Pilatos interroga Jesus
(Mt 27.1-2,11-14; Lc 23.1-5; Jo 18.28-38)
15 Assim que amanheceu, os líderes dos sacerdotes, os líderes, os professores da lei e todo o Conselho Superior dos judeus chegaram a uma decisão. Eles amarraram Jesus, o levaram e o entregaram a Pilatos. 2 Pilatos lhe perguntou:
—Você é o rei dos judeus?
Ele respondeu:
—Você está dizendo isso.
3 Os líderes dos sacerdotes, então, começaram a acusá-lo de muitas coisas. 4 Pilatos tornou a perguntar:
—Não vai responder nada? Veja quantas acusações estão sendo feitas contra você!
5 Mas mesmo assim Jesus não respondeu e Pilatos ficou muito admirado.
Jesus é condenado
(Mt 27.15-31; Lc 23.13-25; Jo 18.39–19.16)
6 Durante a festa da Páscoa, Pilatos tinha o costume de soltar um dos prisioneiros, qualquer um que o povo escolhesse. 7 Havia entre os prisioneiros um homem chamado Barrabás. Ele e outros revolucionários tinham sido presos por terem matado várias pessoas durante um tumulto.
8 A multidão se ajuntou e começou a pedir que Pilatos fizesse como de costume. 9 Pilatos, então, lhes perguntou:
—Vocês querem que eu solte o rei dos judeus?
10 (Pilatos disse isso porque sabia que por inveja os líderes dos sacerdotes tinham entregado a Jesus.) 11 Mas os líderes dos sacerdotes incitaram o povo a pedir que Pilatos lhes entregasse Barrabás ao invés de Jesus. 12 Pilatos, então, lhes perguntou mais uma vez:
—Então, o que querem que eu faça com este homem que vocês chamam de rei dos judeus?
13 E todos eles gritaram:
—Queremos que o senhor o crucifique!
14 Pilatos, porém, lhes perguntou:
—Mas que mal ele fez?
A multidão, no entanto, gritava cada vez mais:
—Crucifique-o!
15 Pilatos então, para contentar o povo, soltou Barrabás. Em seguida, mandou que Jesus fosse chicoteado e que depois fosse levado para ser crucificado.
Jesus e os soldados
16 Os soldados levaram Jesus para o pátio interno do palácio do governador e lá reuniram toda a tropa. 17 Primeiro eles o vestiram com uma capa vermelha.[a] Depois, entrelaçando espinhos em forma de uma coroa, a colocaram sobre a cabeça dele 18 e começaram a saudá-lo, dizendo:
—Viva o Rei dos judeus!
19 Eles bateram na cabeça dele com um pedaço de pau, cuspiram nele e, ajoelhando-se diante dele, o adoravam.
20 Depois de terem zombado dele, tiraram a capa vermelha dele e o vestiram com suas próprias roupas. Em seguida, o levaram para fora para ser crucificado.
Jesus é crucificado
(Mt 27.32-44; Lc 23.26-39; Jo 19.17-19)
21 No caminho eles encontraram um homem chamado Simão, da cidade de Cirene. Ele era pai de Alexandre e de Rufo e estava vindo do campo quando os soldados o obrigaram a carregar a cruz de Jesus. 22 Eles levaram Jesus até um lugar chamado Gólgota (que quer dizer “Lugar da Caveira”), 23 e lhe ofereceram vinho misturado com mirra para beber, mas ele não aceitou.
24 Eles o crucificaram e depois dividiram as suas roupas entre si, tirando a sorte com dados para saber qual seria a parte de cada um.
25 Eram nove horas da manhã quando crucificaram Jesus.
26 Um pouco acima da cabeça de Jesus, pregaram na cruz uma tabuleta onde estava escrito como acusação: O rei dos judeus. 27 Crucificaram-no com dois ladrões, um à sua direita e outro à sua esquerda. 28 [b] 29 As pessoas que passavam por ali faziam pouco dele e, sacudindo a cabeça, diziam:
—Ele não disse que ia destruir o templo e que ia construí-lo de novo em três dias? 30 Então que desça da cruz e que se salve!
31 Os líderes dos sacerdotes e os professores da lei também caçoavam dele e diziam uns aos outros:
—Salvou outros e não consegue salvar a si mesmo. 32 Desça da cruz agora o Cristo, o rei de Israel, para que vejamos e possamos acreditar.
E até os que foram crucificados com ele o insultavam.
A morte de Jesus
(Mt 27.45-56; Lc 23.44-49; Jo 19.28-30)
33 Ao meio-dia uma escuridão cobriu a terra, que permaneceu às escuras por três horas. 34 Às três horas da tarde, Jesus gritou bem alto:
—Eloí, Eloí, lemá sabactâni?—(que quer dizer: “Meu Deus, meu Deus! Por que me abandonou?”).(A) 35 Quando algumas pessoas que estavam ali ouviram isto, disseram:
—Escutem! Ele está chamando por Elias![c]
36 Alguém correu, molhou uma esponja em vinagre e, colocando-a na ponta de uma vara, deu de beber a Jesus. Depois ele disse:
—Deixem-no! Vamos ver se Elias vem tirá-lo da cruz!
37 Mas Jesus deu um grito forte e morreu.
38 Nesse mesmo instante a cortina do templo se rasgou em duas partes, de cima até embaixo.
39 Quando o oficial da guarda que estava em frente de Jesus o ouviu gritar e viu como ele havia morrido, disse:
—Realmente este homem era o Filho de Deus!
40 Algumas mulheres que também estavam ali observavam de longe. Entre elas estavam: Maria Madalena, Salomé e Maria, a mãe de Tiago, o jovem, e de José. 41 Estas mulheres tinham acompanhado e ajudado a Jesus desde o tempo em que ele estava na Galileia. Muitas outras mulheres que também estavam ali tinham ido com ele para Jerusalém.
O enterro de Jesus
(Mt 27.57-61; Lc 23.50-56; Jo 19.38-42)
42 Era o dia da preparação, isto é, véspera do sábado. Já era quase noite quando 43 José de Arimateia, importante membro do Conselho Superior dos judeus e que também esperava pelo reino de Deus, chegou. Com muita coragem José se dirigiu a Pilatos e pediu o corpo de Jesus. 44 Pilatos ficou admirado quando ouviu que Jesus já tinha morrido. E, chamando um oficial, lhe perguntou se fazia muito tempo que Jesus morrera. 45 Depois de se certificar da morte de Jesus por informação do oficial, Pilatos permitiu que José levasse o corpo.
46 José comprou um lençol de linho e, tirando o corpo de Jesus da cruz, o enrolou no lençol. Depois, colocou o corpo num túmulo que tinha sido cavado numa rocha e rolou uma grande pedra para fechar a entrada do túmulo. 47 Maria Madalena e Maria, a mãe de José, estavam lá e viram onde o corpo de Jesus tinha sido colocado.

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