19 Then tote Pilate Pilatos took lambanō · ho · ho Jesus Iēsous and kai had him flogged mastigoō. ² And kai the ho soldiers stratiōtēs twisted plekō some ek thorns akantha into a crown stephanos and placed epitithēmi it on his autos · ho head kephalē, and kai they threw periballō a purple porphyrous robe himation around periballō him autos. ³ Then kai they kept coming erchomai up to pros him autos, · kai saying legō, “ Hail chairō, · ho king basileus of the ho Jews Ioudaios!” and kai slapping him in the face didōmi. ⁴ · kai Once more palin Pilate Pilatos went exerchomai out exō · ho and kai said legō to them autos, “ Look ide, I am bringing agō him autos out exō to you hymeis that hina you may know ginōskō that hoti I find heuriskō no oudeis basis for an accusation aitia against en him autos.” ⁵ So oun Jesus Iēsous came exerchomai · ho out exō, wearing phoreō the ho crown stephanos of thorns akanthinos and kai the ho purple porphyrous robe himation; and kai Pilate said legō to them autos, “ Look idou, the ho man anthrōpos!” ⁶ When hote the ho chief priests archiereus and kai the ho officers hypēretēs saw him autos, they cried out kraugazō, saying legō, “ Crucify stauroō him! Crucify stauroō him!” Pilate Pilatos said legō to them autos, · ho “ Take lambanō him autos yourselves hymeis and kai crucify stauroō him; for gar I egō find heuriskō no ou basis for an accusation aitia against en him autos.” ⁷ The ho Jews Ioudaios answered apokrinomai him autos, “ We hēmeis have echō a law nomos, and kai according kata to our ho law nomos he ought opheilō to die apothnēskō, because hoti he claimed poieō himself heautou to be poieō the Son hyios of God theos.”

⁸ Now oun when hote Pilate Pilatos heard akouō · ho this houtos · ho statement logos, he became even more mallon afraid phobeomai. ⁹ · kai He went eiserchomai back palin into eis his ho headquarters praitōrion and kai said legō to ho Jesus Iēsous, “ Where pothen are eimi you sy from?” · ho But de Jesus Iēsous gave didōmi him autos no ou answer apokrisis. ¹⁰ So oun Pilate Pilatos said legō to him autos, · ho “ Are you laleō not ou going to talk laleō to me egō? You know oida, do you not ou, that hoti I have echō the authority exousia to release apolyō you sy and kai I have echō the authority exousia to crucify stauroō you sy?” ¹¹ Jesus Iēsous said apokrinomai, “ You would have echō no ou authority exousia over kata me egō at oudeis all unless ei mē it had been eimi given didōmi you sy from above anōthen. That is why dia the ho man who handed paradidōmi me egō over to you sy has echō a greater megas sin hamartia.” ¹² From ek that houtos point on · ho Pilate Pilatos tried zēteō to release apolyō him autos, but de the ho Jews Ioudaios kept shouting kraugazō out , saying legō, “ If ean you release apolyō this man houtos, you are eimi no ou ‘ Friend philos of ho Caesar Kaisar.’ Anyone pas who ho claims poieō himself heautou to be poieō a king basileus opposes antilegō · ho Caesar Kaisar.”

¹³ · ho On hearing akouō · ho these houtos words logos, Pilate Pilatos brought agō Jesus Iēsous out exō · ho and kai sat kathizō down on epi the judge’ s bēma bench in eis the place topos called legō “ Stone lithostrōtos Pavement ,” or de in Hebrew Hebraisti, “ Gabbatha Gabbatha.” ¹⁴ Now de it was eimi the day of Preparation paraskeuē for the ho Passover pascha, about hōs noon hektos. · kai Pilate said legō to the ho Jews Ioudaios, “ Here ide is · ho your hymeis king basileus!” ¹⁵ But oun they shouted kraugazō, “ Away airō with him ekeinos! Away airō with him! Crucify stauroō him autos!” Pilate Pilatos said legō to them autos, · ho “ Shall I crucify stauroō · ho your hymeis king basileus?” The ho chief priests archiereus answered apokrinomai, “ We have echō no ou king basileus but ei mē Caesar Kaisar!”

¹⁶ Then tote oun Pilate handed paradidōmi him autos over to the soldiers autos to hina be crucified stauroō. So oun they took charge paralambanō of · ho Jesus Iēsous, ¹⁷ · kai who, carrying bastazō the cross stauros by himself heautou, · ho went exerchomai out to eis what ho was called legō “The Place topos of the Skull kranion,” which hos is called legō in Hebrew Hebraisti, “ Golgotha Golgotha.” ¹⁸ There hopou they crucified stauroō him autos, and kai with meta him autos two dyo others allos, one on either side enteuthen · kai with Jesus Iēsous between mesos · de · ho them. ¹⁹ And de Pilate Pilatos wrote graphō · kai an inscription titlos · ho and kai fastened tithēmi it to epi the ho cross stauros. It read eimi, · de “ Jesus Iēsous of ho Nazareth Nazōraios, the ho King basileus of the ho Jews Ioudaios.” ²⁰ Many polys of the ho Jews Ioudaios read anaginōskō this houtos · ho inscription titlos, for hoti the ho place topos where hopou Jesus Iēsous was crucified stauroō was eimi near engys the ho city polis, · ho and kai it was eimi written graphō in Hebrew Hebraisti, in Latin Rhōmaisti, and in Greek Hellēnisti. ²¹ Then oun the ho chief priests archiereus of the ho Jews Ioudaios said legō to ho Pilate Pilatos, “ Do not mē write graphō, ‘ The ho King basileus of the ho Jews Ioudaios,’ but alla rather , ‘ This ekeinos man said legō, I am eimi King basileus of the ho Jews Ioudaios.’” ²² Pilate Pilatos answered apokrinomai, · ho “ What hos I have written graphō I have written graphō.” ²³ When hote the ho soldiers stratiōtēs crucified stauroō · ho Jesus Iēsous, they took lambanō · ho his autos garments himation and kai separated poieō them into four tessares shares meros, one share meros for each hekastos soldier stratiōtēs. They also kai took his ho tunic chitōn, which chitōn was eimi · de · ho seamless araphos, woven hyphantos from ek · ho top anōthen to bottom as dia a single holos piece . ²⁴ So oun they said legō to pros one allēlōn another , “ Let us not mē tear schizō it autos, but alla cast lanchanō lots for peri it autos to see who tis will get eimi it”— that hina the ho Scripture graphē might be fulfilled plēroō that ho says legō, “ They divided diamerizō · ho my egō garments himation among themselves heautou, and kai for epi · ho my egō clothing himatismos they cast ballō lots klēros.” So oun the ho soldiers stratiōtēs did poieō these houtos things . ²⁵ Now de standing histēmi beside para · ho Jesus’ Iēsous cross stauros · ho were · ho his autos mother mētēr, and kai · ho his autos mother’ s mētēr sister adelphē, · ho Mary Maria the ho wife of ho Clopas Klōpas, and kai Mary Maria · ho Magdalene Magdalēnē. ²⁶ When oun Jesus Iēsous saw his ho mother mētēr and kai the ho disciple mathētēs whom hos he loved agapaō standing paristēmi there , he said legō to his ho mother mētēr, “ Woman gynē, look ide, · ho your sy son hyios!” ²⁷ Then eita he said legō to his ho disciple mathētēs, “ Look ide, · ho your sy mother mētēr!” And kai from apo that ekeinos · ho hour hōra the ho disciple mathētēs took lambanō her autos into eis · ho his own idios home.

²⁸ After meta this houtos Jesus Iēsous, knowing oida · ho that hoti all pas was now ēdē accomplished teleō, so hina that the ho Scripture graphē would be fulfilled teleioō, said legō, “ I am thirsty dipsaō.” ²⁹ A jar skeuos full mestos of sour wine oxos was there keimai, so oun they attached peritithēmi a sponge spongos soaked mestos in the ho sour oxos wine to a stalk of hyssop hyssōpos and held prospherō it to ho his autos mouth stoma. ³⁰ When hote he had taken lambanō the ho sour oxos wine , · ho Jesus Iēsous said legō, “ It is accomplished teleō!” And kai he bowed klinō his ho head kephalē and handed paradidōmi over his ho spirit pneuma.

³¹ Then oun, since epei it was eimi the day paraskeuē of Preparation , so hina that the ho bodies sōma would not mē remain menō on epi the ho cross stauros on en the ho Sabbath sabbaton ( for gar that ekeinos Sabbath sabbaton was eimi a high megas · ho day hēmera), · ho the ho Jews Ioudaios asked erōtaō · ho Pilate Pilatos to hina have the ho legs skelos of autos the crucified men autos broken katagnymi and kai their bodies taken airō down . ³² So oun the ho soldiers stratiōtēs came erchomai and kai broke katagnymi the ho legs skelos of the ho first prōtos man , then kai those of the ho other allos one who ho had been crucified systauroō with him autos. ³³ But de when they came erchomai to epi · ho Jesus Iēsous and saw that he autos was already ēdē dead thnēskō, they did not ou break katagnymi his autos · ho legs skelos. ³⁴ Instead alla, one heis of the ho soldiers stratiōtēs pierced nyssō his autos · ho side pleura with lonchē a spear lonchē, and kai immediately blood haima and kai water hydōr came exerchomai out . ³⁵ · kai ( The ho man who saw horaō this has borne martyreō witness to it so that hina you hymeis too kai may believe pisteuō. · kai His autos witness martyria is eimi true alēthinos, · ho and kai he ekeinos knows oida that hoti he is telling legō the truth alēthēs.) ³⁶ These things houtos took ginomai place so hina that the ho Scripture graphē would be fulfilled plēroō, “ Not ou a bone osteon of his autos body will be broken syntribō.” ³⁷ And kai yet palin another heteros Scripture graphē says legō, “ They will look horaō on eis him whom hos they pierced ekkenteō.”

³⁸ After meta · de this houtos · ho Joseph Iōsēph · ho of apo Arimathea Harimathaia, a disciple mathētēs of ho Jesus Iēsous ( though a secret kryptō one · de due dia to his ho fear phobos of the ho Jews Ioudaios) asked erōtaō Pilate Pilatos if hina he could remove airō the ho body sōma of ho Jesus Iēsous. · kai Pilate Pilatos gave him permission epitrepō, · ho so oun he came erchomai and kai removed airō the ho body sōma. ³⁹ · de Nicodemus Nikodēmos, who ho earlier prōton had come erchomai to pros Jesus autos at night nyx, · ho also kai came erchomai, bringing pherō a mixture migma of myrrh smyrna and kai aloes aloē, about hōs seventy-five pounds litra. ⁴⁰ So oun they took lambanō the ho body sōma of ho Jesus Iēsous and kai wrapped deō it autos in strips othonion of linen with meta the ho spices arōma, in accordance kathōs with the Jewish Ioudaios custom ethos · ho for burial entaphiazō. ⁴¹ Now de in en the ho place topos where hopou he was crucified stauroō there was eimi a garden kēpos, and kai in en the ho garden kēpos was a new kainos tomb mnēmeion in en which hos no one oudeis had ever yet oudepō been eimi laid tithēmi. ⁴² So oun because dia it was the ho Jewish Ioudaios day paraskeuē of Preparation · ho and the ho tomb mnēmeion was eimi nearby engys, they laid tithēmi · ho Jesus Iēsous there ekei.

20 Now de on the ho first heis day of the ho week sabbaton Mary Maria · ho Magdalene Magdalēnē came erchomai early prōi to eis the ho tomb mnēmeion, while it was eimi still eti dark skotia, and kai she saw blepō the ho stone lithos removed airō from ek the ho tomb mnēmeion. ² So oun she went running trechō · kai to pros Simon Simōn Peter Petros and kai the ho other allos disciple mathētēs, the one whom hos Jesus Iēsous loved phileō, · ho and kai said legō to them autos, “ They have taken airō our ho Master kyrios out ek of the ho tomb mnēmeion, and kai we do not ou know oida where pou they have put tithēmi him autos!” ³ So oun · ho Peter Petros and kai the ho other allos disciple mathētēs set out exerchomai · kai to go erchomai to eis the ho tomb mnēmeion. ⁴ The ho two dyo were running trechō · de together homou, but kai the ho other allos disciple mathētēs ran ahead protrechō more quickly tacheōs than ho Peter Petros and kai arrived erchomai first prōtos at eis the ho tomb mnēmeion. ⁵ · kai When he stooped parakyptō down to look in , he saw blepō the ho linen wrappings othonion lying keimai there but mentoi he did not ou go eiserchomai in . ⁶ Then oun Simon Simōn Peter Petros, who had been behind akoloutheō him autos, also kai arrived erchomai, and kai he went eiserchomai right into eis the ho tomb mnēmeion. · kai He saw theōreō the ho linen othonion wrappings lying keimai there , ⁷ and kai the ho face soudarion cloth that hos had been eimi on epi · ho Jesus’ autos head kephalē; it was keimai not ou lying keimai with meta the ho linen othonion wrappings but alla rolled up entylissō in eis one heis place topos by itself chōris. ⁸ Then tote oun the ho other allos disciple mathētēs, the ho one who had arrived erchomai first prōtos, also kai went eiserchomai into eis the ho tomb mnēmeion, and kai he saw and kai believed pisteuō. ⁹ ( They still did not oudepō understand oida the ho Scripture graphē that hoti Jesus autos must dei rise anistēmi from ek the dead nekros.) ¹⁰ So oun the ho disciples mathētēs returned aperchomai to pros their autos homes.

¹¹ But de Mary Maria stood histēmi weeping klaiō outside exō the ho tomb mnēmeion. As hōs she was weeping klaiō she stooped parakyptō down to look into eis the ho tomb mnēmeion. ¹² · kai She saw theōreō two dyo angels angelos in en white leukos sitting kathezomai there , one heis at pros the ho head kephalē and kai the other heis at pros the ho feet pous of the place where hopou the ho body sōma of ho Jesus Iēsous had been lying keimai. ¹³ · kai They ekeinos said legō to her autos, “ Woman gynē, why tis are you weeping klaiō?” She said legō to them autos, “ They have taken airō away · ho my egō Master kyrios, and kai I do not ou know oida where pou they have put tithēmi him autos.” ¹⁴ Having said legō this houtos, she turned strephō around eis ho · ho and kai saw theōreō · ho Jesus Iēsous standing histēmi there , but kai she did not ou know oida that hoti it was eimi Jesus Iēsous. ¹⁵ Jesus Iēsous said legō to her autos, “ Woman gynē, why tis are you weeping klaiō? Who tis is it that you are looking zēteō for ?” Thinking dokeō that hoti he was eimi the ho gardener kēpouros, she ekeinos said legō to him autos, “ Sir kyrios, if ei you sy are the one who carried bastazō him autos away , tell legō me egō where pou you have put tithēmi him autos, and kagō I will take airō him autos away airō.” ¹⁶ Jesus Iēsous said legō to her autos, “ Mary Mariam!” She ekeinos turned strephō and said legō to him autos in Hebrew Hebraisti, “ Rabbouni rhabbouni!” ( which hos means legō “ Teacher didaskalos”). ¹⁷ Jesus Iēsous said legō to her autos, “ Do haptō not mē hold on to haptō me egō, for gar I have not oupō yet ascended anabainō to pros the ho Father patēr. But de go poreuō to pros · ho my egō brothers adelphos and kai say legō to them autos, ‘ I am ascending anabainō to pros · ho my egō Father patēr and kai your hymeis Father patēr, · kai to my egō God theos and kai your hymeis God theos.’” ¹⁸ Mary Mariam Magdalene Magdalēnē went erchomai · ho and reported angellō to the ho disciples mathētēs, “ I have seen horaō the ho Master kyrios!” and kai she told them that he had said legō these houtos things to her autos.

¹⁹ On eimi the evening opsia · ho of that ekeinos day hēmera, the ho first heis day of the week sabbaton, · kai when the ho doors thura were locked kleiō where hopou the ho disciples mathētēs were eimi for dia · ho fear phobos of the ho Jews Ioudaios, Jesus Iēsous came erchomai · ho and kai stood histēmi in eis their ho midst mesos and kai said legō to them autos, “ Peace eirēnē be with you hymeis.” ²⁰ · kai Having said legō this houtos, he showed deiknymi them autos his ho hands cheir and kai his ho side pleura. Then oun the ho disciples mathētēs were filled chairō with joy when they saw the ho Lord kyrios. ²¹ So oun Jesus Iēsous said legō to them autos · ho again palin, “ Peace eirēnē be with you hymeis. As kathōs the ho Father patēr has sent apostellō me egō, I also kagō am sending pempō you hymeis.” ²² · kai Having said legō this houtos, he breathed emphysaō on them autos and kai said legō, “ Receive lambanō the Holy hagios Spirit pneuma. ²³ Whoever’ s an tis sins hamartia you forgive aphiēmi, · ho they autos stand forgiven aphiēmi; whoever’ s an tis sins you pronounce unforgiven krateō, they remain unforgiven krateō.

²⁴ But de Thomas Thōmas ( called legō the Twin Didymos), one heis of ek the ho twelve dōdeka, · ho was eimi not ou with meta them autos when hote Jesus Iēsous came erchomai. ²⁵ So oun the ho other allos disciples mathētēs kept saying legō to him autos, “ We have seen horaō the ho Master kyrios!” But de he ho said legō to them autos, “ Unless ean mē I see in en · ho his autos hands cheir the ho mark typos of the ho nails hēlos, and kai put ballō · ho my egō finger daktylos into eis the ho wound typos left by the ho nails hēlos, and kai put ballō my egō · ho hand cheir into eis · ho his autos side pleura, I will never ou mē believe pisteuō!”

²⁶ · kai Eight oktō days hēmera later meta his autos disciples mathētēs were eimi in esō the house again palin, · ho and kai Thomas Thōmas was with meta them autos. Although kleiō the ho doors thura were locked kleiō, Jesus Iēsous came erchomai · ho and kai stood histēmi in eis their ho midst mesos and kai said legō, “ Peace eirēnē be with you hymeis.” ²⁷ Then eita he said legō to ho Thomas Thōmas, “ Put pherō · ho your sy finger daktylos here hōde, and kai examine ide · ho my egō hands cheir; and kai reach pherō out · ho your sy hand cheir, and kai put ballō it into eis · ho my egō side pleura. · kai Do not mē continue ginomai in unbelief apistos, but alla believe pistos.” ²⁸ Thomas Thōmas replied apokrinomai · kai to him autos, saying legō, · ho “ My egō Lord kyrios, and kai · ho my egō God theos!” ²⁹ Jesus Iēsous said legō to them autos, · ho “ You believe pisteuō because hoti you have seen horaō me egō. Blessed makarios are those ho who have not mē seen me, yet kai believe pisteuō.”

³⁰ Now oun Jesus Iēsous did poieō many polys · kai other allos signs sēmeion · ho in the presence enōpion of ho his autos disciples mathētēs, which hos are eimi not ou recorded graphō in en · ho this houtos book biblion; ³¹ but de these houtos are recorded graphō so hina that you may believe pisteuō that hoti Jesus Iēsous is eimi the ho Christ Christos, the ho Son hyios of ho God theos, and kai that hina by believing pisteuō you may have echō life zōē in en · ho his autos name onoma.
