27 When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:

And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.

Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,

Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.

And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.

And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.

And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.

Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day.

Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;

10 And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.

11 And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest.

12 And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.

13 Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee?

14 And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly.

15 Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would.

16 And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.

17 Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ?

18 For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.

19 When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.

20 But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.

21 The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas.

22 Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.

23 And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.

24 When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.

25 Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.

26 Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.

27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.

28 And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.

29 And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!

30 And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head.

31 And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.

32 And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross.

33 And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,

34 They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.

35 And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.

36 And sitting down they watched him there;

37 And set up over his head his accusation written, This Is Jesus The King Of The Jews.

38 Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.

39 And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,

40 And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.

41 Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,

42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.

43 He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.

44 The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.

45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.

46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

47 Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.

48 And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.

49 The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.

50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.

51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;

52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,

53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.

54 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.

55 And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:

56 Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedees children.

57 When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple:

58 He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.

59 And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,

60 And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.

61 And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.

62 Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,

63 Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.

64 Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first.

65 Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as ye can.

66 So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch.

Judas’ Remorse

27 When it was morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people (Sanhedrin, Jewish High Court) conferred together against Jesus, [plotting how] to put Him to death [since under Roman rule they had no power to execute anyone]; so they bound Him, and led Him away and handed Him over to Pilate the governor [of Judea, who had the authority to condemn prisoners to death].

When Judas, His betrayer, saw that Jesus was condemned, he was gripped with remorse and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders,(A) saying, “I have sinned by betraying innocent blood.” They replied, “What is that to us? See to that yourself!” And throwing the pieces of silver into the temple sanctuary, he left; and went away and [a]hanged himself. The chief priests, picking up the pieces of silver, said, “It is not lawful to put these in the treasury [of the temple], because it is the price of blood.” So after consultation they used the money to buy the Potter’s Field as a burial place for strangers. Therefore that piece of ground has been called the Field of Blood to this day. Then the words spoken by Jeremiah the prophet were fulfilled: “And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of Him on whom a price had been set by the sons of Israel;(B) 10 and they gave them for the Potter’s Field, as the Lord directed me.”(C)

Jesus before Pilate

11 Now Jesus stood before [Pilate] the governor, and the governor asked Him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” [In affirmation] Jesus said to him, It is as you say.”(D) 12 But when the charges were brought against Him by the chief priests and elders, He did not answer.(E) 13 Then Pilate said to Him, “Do You not hear how many things they are testifying against You?” 14 But Jesus did not reply to him, not even to a single accusation, so that the governor was greatly astonished.

15 Now at the feast [of the Passover] the governor was in the habit of setting free any one prisoner whom the people chose.(F) 16 And at that time they were holding a notorious prisoner [guilty of insurrection and murder], called Barabbas. 17 So when they had assembled [for this purpose], Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to set free for you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?” 18 For Pilate knew that it was because of jealousy that the chief priests and elders had handed Jesus over to him.

19 While he was seated on the judgment seat, his wife sent him a message, saying, “Have nothing to do with that righteous and innocent Man; for last night I suffered greatly in a dream because of Him.” 20 But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas and to put Jesus to death. 21 The governor said to them, “Which of the two do you wish me to set free for you?” And they said, “Barabbas.” 22 Pilate said to them, “Then what shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?” They all replied, “Let Him be crucified!” 23 And he said, “Why, what has He done that is evil?” But they continued shouting all the louder, “Let Him be crucified!”(G)

24 So when Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere, but rather that a riot was breaking out, he took water and washed his hands [to ceremonially cleanse himself of guilt] in the presence of the crowd, saying, “I am innocent of this [righteous] Man’s blood; see to that yourselves.”(H) 25 And all the people answered, “Let [the responsibility for] His blood be on us and on our children!”(I) 26 So he set Barabbas free for them; but after having Jesus severely whipped (scourged), he handed Him over to be crucified.

Jesus Is Mocked

27 Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into [b]the Praetorium, and they gathered the whole Roman cohort around Him.(J) 28 They stripped him and put a scarlet [c]robe on Him [as a king’s robe]. 29 And after twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on His head, and put a reed in His right hand [as a scepter]. Kneeling before Him, they ridiculed Him, saying, “Hail (rejoice), King of the Jews!” 30 They spat on Him, and took the reed and struck Him repeatedly on the head. 31 After they finished ridiculing Him, they stripped Him of the scarlet robe and put His own clothes on Him, and led Him away to crucify Him.

32 Now as they were coming out, they found a man of [d]Cyrene named [e]Simon, whom they forced into service [f]to carry the cross of Jesus.(K)

The Crucifixion

33 And when they came to a place called Golgotha, which means [g]Place of a Skull,(L) 34 they offered Him wine mixed with gall (myrrh, a bitter-tasting narcotic) to drink; but after tasting it, He refused to drink it.

35 And when they had crucified Him, they divided His clothes among them by casting [h]lots.(M) 36 Then sitting down there, they began to keep watch over Him [to guard against any rescue attempt]. 37 And above His head they put the accusation against Him which read, “[i]THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.”

38 At the same time two robbers were crucified with Jesus, one on the right and one on the left. 39 Those who passed by were hurling abuse at Him and jeering at Him, wagging their heads [in scorn and ridicule],(N) 40 and they said [tauntingly], “You who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save Yourself [from death]! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross.” 41 In the same way the chief priests also, along with the scribes and elders, mocked Him, saying, 42 “He saved others [from death]; He cannot save Himself. He is the King of Israel; let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe in Him and acknowledge Him. 43 He trusts in God; let God rescue Him now, if He delights in Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”(O) 44 The robbers who had been crucified with Him also began to insult Him in the same way.

45 Now from the sixth hour (noon) there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour (3:00 p.m.).(P) 46 About the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud [agonized] voice, [j]Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”(Q) 47 When some of the bystanders there heard it, they began saying, “This man is calling for [k]Elijah.” 48 Immediately one of them ran, and took a sponge, soaked it with sour wine and put it on a reed, and gave Him a drink.(R) 49 But the rest said, “Let us see whether Elijah will come to save Him [from death].” 50 And Jesus cried out again with a loud [agonized] voice, and gave up His spirit [voluntarily, sovereignly dismissing and releasing His spirit from His body in submission to His Father’s plan].(S) 51 And [at once] the veil [of the Holy of Holies] of the temple was [l]torn in two from top to bottom; the earth shook and the rocks were split apart.(T) 52 The tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints (God’s people) who had fallen asleep [in death] were raised [to life]; 53 and coming out of the tombs after His resurrection, they entered the holy city (Jerusalem) and appeared to many people. 54 Now the centurion, and those who were with him keeping guard over Jesus, when they saw the earthquake and the things that were happening, they were terribly frightened and filled with awe, and said, “Truly this was the Son of God!”

55 There were also many women there looking on from a distance, who had accompanied Jesus from Galilee, ministering to Him. 56 Among them was [m]Mary Magdalene, and [n]Mary the mother of [o]James and Joseph, and [Salome] the [p]mother of Zebedee’s sons [James and John].

Jesus Is Buried

57 When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who was also a disciple of Jesus.(U) 58 He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus [so that he might bury Him], and Pilate ordered that it be given to him. 59 And Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth (burial wrapping), 60 and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut in the rock; and he rolled a large stone over the entrance of the tomb and went away. 61 And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other [q]Mary, sitting opposite the tomb.

62 The next day, that is, the day after the [day of] preparation [for the Sabbath], the chief priests and the Pharisees assembled before Pilate, 63 and said, “Sir, we have remembered that when He was still alive that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise [from the dead].’ 64 Therefore, give orders to have the tomb made secure and safeguarded until the third day, otherwise His disciples may come and steal Him away and tell the people, ‘He has risen from the dead,’ and the last deception [the reporting of His resurrection] will be worse than the first [the reporting that He is the Messiah].” 65 Pilate said to them, “You have a guard [of soldiers]; go [with them], make the tomb as secure as you know how.” 66 So they went and [r]made the tomb secure, and along with [stationing] a guard of soldiers [to be on watch] they set a seal on the stone.

Jesús es entregado a Pilato

27 Cuando llegó la mañana, todos los principales sacerdotes y los ancianos del pueblo celebraron consejo(A) para dar muerte a Jesús. Y después de atar a Jesús, lo llevaron y lo entregaron(B) a Pilato, el gobernador(C).

Muerte de Judas

Entonces Judas(D), el que lo había entregado, viendo que Jesús había sido condenado, sintió remordimiento y devolvió las treinta monedas de plata (30 siclos: 432 gramos de plata)(E) a los principales sacerdotes y a los ancianos, «He pecado entregando sangre inocente», dijo Judas. «A nosotros, ¿qué? ¡Allá tú[a](F)!», dijeron ellos.

Y arrojando las monedas de plata en el santuario(G), Judas se marchó; y fue y se ahorcó(H). Los principales sacerdotes tomaron las monedas de plata, y dijeron: «No es lícito ponerlas en el tesoro del templo, puesto que es precio de sangre». Y después de discutirlo, compraron con ellas el Campo del Alfarero para sepultura de los extranjeros. Por eso ese campo se ha llamado Campo de Sangre(I) hasta hoy. Entonces se cumplió lo anunciado[b] por medio del profeta Jeremías, cuando dijo: «(J)Y tomaron[c] las treinta monedas de plata, el precio de aquel cuyo precio había sido fijado por los israelitas; 10 y las dieron[d] por el Campo del Alfarero, como el Señor me había ordenado».

Jesús ante Pilato

11 (K)Jesús fue llevado delante del gobernador[e], y este[f] lo interrogó: «¿Eres Tú el Rey de los judíos(L)?». «Tú lo dices(M)», le contestó Jesús. 12 Al ser acusado por los principales sacerdotes y los ancianos, nada respondió(N). 13 Entonces Pilato le dijo*: «¿No oyes cuántas cosas testifican contra Ti?». 14 Jesús no le respondió ni a una sola pregunta[g], por lo que el gobernador estaba muy asombrado(O).

Jesús o Barrabás

15 (P)Ahora bien, en cada fiesta, el gobernador acostumbraba soltar un preso al pueblo, el que ellos quisieran. 16 Tenían entonces un preso famoso, llamado Barrabás. 17 Por lo cual, cuando ellos se reunieron, Pilato les dijo: «¿A quién quieren que les suelte: a Barrabás o a Jesús, llamado el Cristo(Q)?». 18 Porque él sabía que lo habían entregado por envidia. 19 Y estando Pilato sentado en el tribunal(R), su mujer le mandó aviso, diciendo: «No tengas nada que ver con ese Justo(S), porque hoy he sufrido mucho en sueños(T) por causa de Él».

20 Pero los principales sacerdotes y los ancianos persuadieron a las multitudes que pidieran a Barrabás y que dieran muerte a Jesús(U). 21 El gobernador les preguntó de nuevo: «¿A cuál de los dos quieren que les suelte?». Ellos respondieron: «A Barrabás». 22 Pilato les dijo*: «¿Qué haré entonces con Jesús, llamado el Cristo(V)?». «¡Sea crucificado!», dijeron* todos. 23 Pilato preguntó: «¿Por qué? ¿Qué mal ha hecho?». Pero ellos gritaban aún más: «¡Sea crucificado!».

24 Viendo Pilato que no conseguía nada, sino que más bien se estaba formando un tumulto(W), tomó agua y se lavó las manos delante de la multitud, diciendo: «Soy inocente de la sangre(X) de este Justo[h](Y). ¡Allá ustedes[i](Z)!». 25 Todo el pueblo contestó: «¡Caiga Su sangre sobre nosotros(AA) y sobre nuestros hijos!». 26 Entonces les soltó a Barrabás, y después de hacer azotar a Jesús, lo entregó para que fuera crucificado(AB).

Los soldados se burlan de Jesús

27 (AC)Entonces los soldados del gobernador llevaron a Jesús al Pretorio[j](AD), y reunieron alrededor de Él a toda la tropa[k](AE) romana. 28 Después de quitarle la ropa, le pusieron encima un manto escarlata(AF). 29 Y tejiendo una corona de espinas, la pusieron sobre Su cabeza(AG), y una caña[l] en Su mano derecha; y arrodillándose delante de Él, le hacían burla, diciendo: «¡Salve, Rey de los judíos(AH)!». 30 Le escupían(AI), y tomaban la caña y lo golpeaban en la cabeza. 31 Después de haberse burlado de Él, le quitaron el manto, le pusieron Sus ropas y lo llevaron para ser crucificado(AJ).

32 (AK)Y cuando salían, hallaron a un hombre de Cirene(AL) llamado Simón, al cual[m] obligaron a que llevara Su cruz.

La crucifixión

33 (AM)Cuando llegaron a un lugar llamado Gólgota, que significa Lugar de la Calavera(AN), 34 Le dieron a beber vino mezclado con hiel(AO); pero después de probarlo, no lo quiso beber(AP).

35 Y habiendo crucificado a Jesús, se repartieron Sus vestidos echando suertes[n](AQ); 36 y sentados, lo custodiaban allí(AR). 37 Pusieron sobre Su cabeza la acusación contra Él, que decía[o]: «ESTE ES JESÚS, EL REY DE LOS JUDÍOS(AS)».

38 Entonces fueron crucificados* con Él dos ladrones, uno a la derecha y otro a la izquierda. 39 Los que pasaban lo injuriaban, meneando la cabeza(AT) 40 y diciendo: «Tú que destruyes el templo y en tres días lo reedificas(AU), sálvate a Ti mismo. Si Tú eres el Hijo de Dios, desciende de la cruz(AV)».

41 De igual manera, también los principales sacerdotes, junto con los escribas y los ancianos, burlándose de Él, decían: 42 «A otros salvó; a Él mismo no puede salvarse[p](AW). Rey de Israel es(AX); que baje ahora de la cruz, y creeremos en Él. 43 En Dios confía; que lo libre ahora si Él lo quiere(AY); porque ha dicho: “Yo soy el Hijo de Dios”». 44 En la misma forma lo injuriaban también los ladrones que habían sido crucificados con Él(AZ).

Muerte de Jesús

45 (BA)Desde la hora sexta[q] hubo oscuridad sobre toda la tierra hasta la hora novena[r]. 46 Y alrededor de la hora novena[s], Jesús exclamó a gran voz, diciendo: «Elí, Elí, ¿lema sabactani?». Esto es: «Dios Mío, Dios Mío, ¿por qué me has abandonado(BB)?».

47 Algunos de los que estaban allí, al oírlo, decían: «Este llama a Elías». 48 Al instante, uno de ellos corrió, y tomando una esponja, la empapó en vinagre, y poniéndola en una caña, le dio a beber(BC). 49 Pero los otros dijeron: «Deja, veamos si Elías lo viene a salvar[t]».

50 Entonces Jesús, clamando otra vez a gran voz, exhaló el espíritu(BD).

51 (BE)En ese momento el velo del templo se rasgó en dos, de arriba abajo(BF), y la tierra tembló(BG) y las rocas se partieron; 52 y los sepulcros se abrieron, y los cuerpos de muchos santos que habían dormido(BH) resucitaron; 53 y saliendo de los sepulcros, después de la resurrección de Jesús, entraron en la santa ciudad(BI) y se aparecieron a muchos.

54 El centurión y los que estaban con él custodiando a Jesús(BJ), cuando vieron el terremoto(BK) y las cosas que sucedían, se asustaron mucho, y dijeron: «En verdad este era Hijo de Dios[u](BL)». 55 Y muchas mujeres(BM) que habían seguido a Jesús desde Galilea para servirle(BN), estaban allí, mirando de lejos. 56 Entre ellas estaban María Magdalena, María la madre de Jacobo y de José(BO), y la madre de los hijos de Zebedeo(BP).

Sepultura de Jesús

57 (BQ)Al atardecer, vino un hombre rico de Arimatea, llamado José, que también se había convertido en discípulo de Jesús. 58 Este se presentó a Pilato y le pidió el cuerpo de Jesús. Entonces Pilato ordenó que se lo entregaran. 59 Tomando José el cuerpo, lo envolvió en un lienzo limpio de lino, 60 y lo puso en su propio sepulcro nuevo que él había excavado en la roca. Después de rodar una piedra grande(BR) a la entrada del sepulcro, se fue. 61 María Magdalena estaba allí, y la otra María(BS), sentadas frente al sepulcro.

Guardias en la tumba

62 Al día siguiente, que es el día después de la preparación[v](BT), se reunieron ante Pilato los principales sacerdotes y los fariseos, 63 y le dijeron[w]: «Señor, nos acordamos que cuando aquel engañador aún vivía, dijo: “Después de tres días resucitaré[x](BU)”. 64 Por eso, ordene usted que el sepulcro quede asegurado hasta el tercer día, no sea que vengan Sus discípulos, se lo roben, y digan al pueblo: “Él ha resucitado de entre los muertos”; y el último engaño será peor que el primero».

65 Pilato les dijo: «Una guardia(BV) tienen; vayan, asegúrenlo como ustedes saben». 66 Y fueron y aseguraron el sepulcro; y además de poner la guardia(BW), sellaron(BX) la piedra(BY).
