Matthew 27
World English Bible
27 Now when morning had come, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death. 2 They bound him, led him away, and delivered him up to Pontius Pilate, the governor.
3 Then Judas, who betrayed him, when he saw that Jesus was condemned, felt remorse, and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, 4 saying, “I have sinned in that I betrayed innocent blood.”
But they said, “What is that to us? You see to it.”
5 He threw down the pieces of silver in the sanctuary and departed. Then he went away and hanged himself.
6 The chief priests took the pieces of silver and said, “It’s not lawful to put them into the treasury, since it is the price of blood.” 7 They took counsel, and bought the potter’s field with them to bury strangers in. 8 Therefore that field has been called “The Field of Blood” to this day. 9 Then that which was spoken through Jeremiah[a] the prophet was fulfilled, saying,
“They took the thirty pieces of silver,
the price of him upon whom a price had been set,
whom some of the children of Israel priced,
10 and they gave them for the potter’s field,
as the Lord commanded me.”(A)
11 Now Jesus stood before the governor; and the governor asked him, saying, “Are you the King of the Jews?”
Jesus said to him, “So you say.”
12 When he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing. 13 Then Pilate said to him, “Don’t you hear how many things they testify against you?”
14 He gave him no answer, not even one word, so that the governor marveled greatly.
15 Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to release to the multitude one prisoner whom they desired. 16 They had then a notable prisoner called Barabbas. 17 When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?” 18 For he knew that because of envy they had delivered him up.
19 While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, “Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered many things today in a dream because of him.”
20 Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes to ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus. 21 But the governor answered them, “Which of the two do you want me to release to you?”
They said, “Barabbas!”
22 Pilate said to them, “What then shall I do to Jesus who is called Christ?”
They all said to him, “Let him be crucified!”
23 But the governor said, “Why? What evil has he done?”
But they cried out exceedingly, saying, “Let him be crucified!”
24 So when Pilate saw that nothing was being gained, but rather that a disturbance was starting, he took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, “I am innocent of the blood of this righteous person. You see to it.”
25 All the people answered, “May his blood be on us and on our children!”
26 Then he released Barabbas to them, but Jesus he flogged and delivered to be crucified.
27 Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium, and gathered the whole garrison together against him. 28 They stripped him and put a scarlet robe on him. 29 They braided a crown of thorns and put it on his head, and a reed in his right hand; and they kneeled down before him and mocked him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” 30 They spat on him, and took the reed and struck him on the head. 31 When they had mocked him, they took the robe off him, and put his clothes on him, and led him away to crucify him.
32 As they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name, and they compelled him to go with them, that he might carry his cross. 33 When they came to a place called “Golgotha”, that is to say, “The place of a skull,” 34 they gave him sour wine[b] to drink mixed with gall.[c] When he had tasted it, he would not drink. 35 When they had crucified him, they divided his clothing among them, casting lots,[d] 36 and they sat and watched him there. 37 They set up over his head the accusation against him written, “THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
38 Then there were two robbers crucified with him, one on his right hand and one on the left.
39 Those who passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads 40 and saying, “You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save yourself! If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross!”
41 Likewise the chief priests also mocking with the scribes, the Pharisees,[e] and the elders, said, 42 “He saved others, but he can’t save himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him come down from the cross now, and we will believe in him. 43 He trusts in God. Let God deliver him now, if he wants him; for he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’” 44 The robbers also who were crucified with him cast on him the same reproach.
45 Now from the sixth hour[f] there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.[g] 46 About the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lima[h] sabachthani?” That is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”(B)
47 Some of them who stood there, when they heard it, said, “This man is calling Elijah.”
48 Immediately one of them ran and took a sponge, filled it with vinegar, put it on a reed, and gave him a drink. 49 The rest said, “Let him be. Let’s see whether Elijah comes to save him.”
50 Jesus cried again with a loud voice, and yielded up his spirit.
51 Behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from the top to the bottom. The earth quaked and the rocks were split. 52 The tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; 53 and coming out of the tombs after his resurrection, they entered into the holy city and appeared to many.
54 Now the centurion and those who were with him watching Jesus, when they saw the earthquake and the things that were done, were terrified, saying, “Truly this was the Son of God!”
55 Many women were there watching from afar, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, serving him. 56 Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
57 When evening had come, a rich man from Arimathaea named Joseph, who himself was also Jesus’ disciple, came. 58 This man went to Pilate and asked for Jesus’ body. Then Pilate commanded the body to be given up. 59 Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth 60 and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut out in the rock. Then he rolled a large stone against the door of the tomb, and departed. 61 Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the tomb.
62 Now on the next day, which was the day after the Preparation Day, the chief priests and the Pharisees were gathered together to Pilate, 63 saying, “Sir, we remember what that deceiver said while he was still alive: ‘After three days I will rise again.’ 64 Command therefore that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest perhaps his disciples come at night and steal him away, and tell the people, ‘He is risen from the dead;’ and the last deception will be worse than the first.”
65 Pilate said to them, “You have a guard. Go, make it as secure as you can.” 66 So they went with the guard and made the tomb secure, sealing the stone.

马太福音 27
Chinese Standard Bible (Simplified)
提交彼拉多
27 到了清晨，所有的祭司长和民间的长老商议对付耶稣，为要处死他。 2 他们把耶稣捆起来带走，交给总督彼拉多。
犹大自缢
3 这时候，那出卖耶稣的犹大看见耶稣被定了死罪，就后悔，去把三十个银钱退还给祭司长们和长老们， 4 说：“我出卖了无辜人的血，我有罪了。”
但是他们说：“这与我们有什么关系？你自己看着办吧！”
5 犹大把银钱丢在圣所里就退了出来，去上吊自杀了。
6 祭司长们捡起银钱，说：“这既然是血钱，不可以放到圣殿奉献里。” 7 他们商议之后，就用那钱买了陶匠的一块地，做为外国人的坟地。 8 因此，那块地就被称为“血田”，直到今天。 9 这就应验了藉着先知耶利米所说的话：
“他们拿了那三十个银钱，就是那人被定的价钱，是以色列子民所定的； 10 他们用这钱买了陶匠的那块地，正如主所指示我的。”[a]
在彼拉多面前受审
11 耶稣站在总督面前，总督问他，说：“你是犹太人的王吗？”
耶稣说：“是你说的。” 12 可是当他被祭司长们和长老们控告的时候，什么都不回应。
13 彼拉多对他说：“他们控告你这么多的事，你没有听见吗？” 14 耶稣连一句话也不回答，以致总督感到非常惊奇。
耶稣或巴拉巴
15 每逢这节日，总督会照惯例，给民众释放一个他们所要的囚犯。 16 那时有一个出名的囚犯，叫巴拉巴。 17 当民众聚集的时候，彼拉多问他们：“你们要我给你们释放哪一个呢？是巴拉巴，还是那称为基督的耶稣？” 18 其实彼拉多知道他们是出于嫉妒才把耶稣交给他的。
19 彼拉多正坐在审判席上，他的妻子派人到他那里说：“这义人的事，你什么也不要管。要知道，我今天因他的缘故，在梦中受了很多苦。”
20 祭司长们和长老们挑唆众人，叫他们要巴拉巴，而除灭耶稣。 21 总督问他们，说：“这两个人中，你们要我给你们释放哪一个呢？”
他们回答说：“巴拉巴！”
22 彼拉多对他们说：“那么，我该怎么处理这称为基督的耶稣呢？”
他们都说：“把他钉上十字架！”
23 彼拉多说：“他到底做了什么恶事呢？”
但他们却越发喊叫说：“把他钉上十字架！”
24 彼拉多知道自己无济于事，反而骚乱倒要发生，就拿水在众人面前洗手，说：“流这人[b]的血，罪不在我，你们自己看着办吧！”
25 全体民众都回答说：“他的血归在我们和我们儿女的身上！” 26 于是彼拉多给他们释放了巴拉巴，然后将耶稣鞭打[c]了，把他交出去钉上十字架。
被士兵戏弄
27 那时，总督的士兵们把耶稣带进总督府，召集了全队士兵在他周围。 28 他们剥下耶稣的衣服，给他套上一件深红色的袍子， 29 用荆棘编了冠冕，戴在他的头上，又把一根芦苇放在他的右手里，然后跪在他面前，戏弄他说：“万岁，犹太人的王！” 30 接着向他吐唾沫，拿芦苇打他的头。 31 他们戏弄完了，就脱下他深红色的袍子，给他穿上他自己的衣服，然后把他带走，要钉上十字架。
被钉在罪犯之间
32 他们出去的时候，遇见一个名叫西门的古利奈人，就强迫这个人来背耶稣的十字架。 33 他们来到一个地方，叫“各各他”——这意思是“骷髅地”； 34 他们把胆汁调和的酒[d]给耶稣喝。耶稣尝了，不肯喝。 35 他们把耶稣钉上十字架以后，抽签分了他的衣服，[e] 36 然后坐在那里看守着他， 37 又在他的头上方，安了他的罪状牌，上面写道：“这是耶稣，犹太人的王。”
38 那时，有两个强盗与耶稣一起被钉十字架，一个在右边，一个在左边。 39 那些路过的人辱骂耶稣，摇着头， 40 说：“你这个要拆毁圣所、三天内又建起来的人哪，救救你自己吧！你如果是神的儿子，就从十字架上下来吧！” 41 同样，祭司长们也与经文士们和长老们[f]一起嘲笑，说： 42 “他救了别人，却不能救自己！他是[g]以色列的王！现在让他从十字架上下来吧，这样我们就信靠他！ 43 他依靠神，如果神喜悦他，就让神现在救他吧！因为他说过‘我是神的儿子。’” 44 与耶稣一起被钉十字架的强盗也同样地责骂他。
耶稣之死
45 从中午十二点[h]起，黑暗笼罩了整个大地，一直到下午三点[i]。 46 下午三点左右，耶稣大声呼叫：“以利，以利！拉玛撒巴克达尼？[j]”——这意思是：“我的神，我的神！你为什么离弃我？”[k]
47 站在那里的一些人听见了，就说：“这个人在呼唤以利亚呢！”
48 其中有一个人立刻跑去，拿了海绵蘸满了酸酒，套在芦苇上，要给他喝。 49 其他的人说：“等着吧，我们看以利亚会不会来救他。”
50 耶稣又大喊一声，就交出了灵魂。 51 忽然，圣所里的幔子从上到下裂成两半。大地震动，岩石裂开。 52 坟墓也开了，许多已睡了的圣徒的身体复活了。 53 耶稣复活以后，他们从坟墓里出来，进了圣城，向许多人显现。
54 百夫长和那些与他一起看守耶稣的人，看见地震和所发生的事，就极其惧怕，说：“这个人真是神的儿子！”
55 那里有许多妇女从远处观看，她们从加利利开始就跟随耶稣，服事他。 56 其中有茉大拉的玛丽亚、雅各和约西[l]的母亲玛丽亚，以及西庇太儿子们的母亲。
安葬
57 到了傍晚，来了一个亚利马太的财主，名叫约瑟，他自己也是耶稣的门徒。 58 他来到彼拉多面前，请求要耶稣的遗体，彼拉多就下令给他。 59 约瑟领了耶稣的遗体，用洁白的细麻布裹好， 60 安放在自己的新墓穴里，这墓穴是他凿在岩石里的。他又滚来一块大石头，堵住墓穴口，就离开了。 61 茉大拉的玛丽亚和另一个玛丽亚在那里，对着坟墓坐着。
严守坟墓
62 第二天，就是预备日的后一天，祭司长们和法利赛人在彼拉多那里聚集， 63 说：“大人，我们想起当那个迷惑人的还活着时曾经说过：‘在第三天我要复活。’ 64 所以，请你下令严密看守那坟墓，一直到第三天，免得他的门徒们来[m]把他偷走，然后对民众说他从死人中复活了，这样，那最后的迷惑就要比先前的更厉害了。”
65 彼拉多对他们说：“你们有一队卫兵，尽你们所能，严密看守吧！” 66 于是，他们带着卫兵去，用印封上墓口的[n]石头，严密看守坟墓。
