And immediately in the morning the chief priests, having taken counsel with the elders and scribes and the whole Sanhedrim, bound Jesus and carried [him] away, and delivered [him] up to Pilate.
And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said to him, Thou sayest [it].
And the chief priests accused him urgently.
And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against thee.
But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.
But at that feast he used to release to them one prisoner, whomsoever they begged.
And there was one named Barabbas, who lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.
And the multitude, crying aloud, began to beg him [to do] as he had ever done unto them.
But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release to you the King of the Jews?
For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him up through envy.
But the chief priests stirred up the crowd that he should rather release Barabbas to them.
And Pilate answered and said again to them, What will ye, then, that I shall do to him whom ye call [the] King of the Jews?
And they cried out again, Crucify him.
And Pilate said to them, What evil, then, has he done? And they cried out exceedingly, Crucify him.
And Pilate, desirous of contenting the crowd, released Barabbas to them, and delivered up Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.
And the soldiers led him away into the court [called] Praetorium, and they call together the whole band.
And they clothed him with purple, and bind round on him a crown of thorns which they had plaited.
And they began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!
And they struck his head with a reed, and spat on him, and, bending the knee, worshipped him.
And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own garments on him, and lead him out to crucify him.
And they compel one Simon, a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming from the field, the father of Alexander and Rufus to carry his cross.
And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, Place of a skull.
And they offered him [to drink] wine medicated with myrrh: but he did not take it.
And having crucified him, they part his garments, casting lots upon them, what each should take.
And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.
And the superscription of what he was accused of was written over, The King of the Jews.
And with him they crucify two robbers, one on his right hand, and one on his left.
(Verse not included in this translation).
And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads, and saying, Aha, thou that destroyest the temple and buildest it in three days,
save thyself, and come down from the cross.
In like manner the chief priests also, said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.
Let Christ the King of Israel come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reproached him.
And when [the] sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until [the] ninth hour.
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?
And some of those that stood by, when they heard [it], said, Behold, he calls for Elias.
And one ran and filled a sponge full of vinegar, and fixed it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone, let us see whether Elias comes to take him down.
And Jesus, having uttered a loud cry, expired.
And the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom.
And the centurion who stood by over against him, when he saw that he had expired having thus cried out, said, Truly this man was Son of God.
And there were women also looking on from afar off, among whom were both Mary of Magdala, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;
who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him and ministered to him; and many others who came up with him to Jerusalem.
And when it was already evening, as it was [the] preparation, that is, [the day] before a Sabbath,
Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, who himself was awaiting the kingdom of God, came, and took courage, and went in to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.
And Pilate wondered if he were already dead; and calling to [him] the centurion, he asked him if he had been long dead.
And when he knew from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.
And he bought fine linen [and] took him down, and swathed him in the fine linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was cut out of a rock, and rolled a stone to the door of the sepulchre.
And Mary of Magdala and Mary the [mother] of Joses saw where he was put.
