- 1 When the morning came, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put Him to death.
- 2 And when they had bound Him, they led him away and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
- 3 Then Judas, His betrayer, observing that He was sentenced, was remorseful, and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders,
- 4 saying, "I have sinned by betraying the innocent blood." And they said, "What is that to us? You see to it.
- 5 Then he threw down the pieces of silver in the temple and departed, and went and hanged himself.
- 6 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."
- 7 And they took counsel, and with them bought the potter’s field, to bury strangers in.
- 8 Therefore that field has been called, the field of blood, to this day.
- 9 Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying, "And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the value of Him that was priced, whom they of the children of Israel priced,
- 10 and gave them for the potter’s field, as the LORD appointed me.
- 11 Now Jesus stood before the governor. And the governor asked Him, saying, "Are You the King of the Jews?" And Jesus said to him, "You say it."
- 12 And when He was accused by the chief priests and elders, He answered nothing.
- 13 Then Pilate said to Him, "Do You not hear how many things they testify against You?"
- 14 But he answered him not one word, so that the governor marvelled greatly.
- 15 Now at that feast the governor was accustomed to release to the crowd a prisoner, whoever they desired.
- 16 And at the time they had an infamous prisoner called Barabbas.
- 17 Therefore, when they had 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 they had handed Him over because of envy .
- 19 While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, "Have nothing to do with that just Man, for I have suffered many things today in a dream because of Him."
- 20 But the chief priests and elders persuaded the crowds that they should ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus.
- 21 The governor answered and said to them, "Which of the two do you want me to release to you? They said, "Barabbas."
- 22 Pilate said to them, "What shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?" They all said to him, "Let him be crucified."
- 23 And the governor said, "Why, what evil has he done?" But they shouted all the more, saying, "Let him be crucified."
- 24 When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but rather that an uproar occurred, he took water, and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, "I am innocent of the blood of this just Person. You see to it.
- 25 Then all the people answered and said, "His blood be on us, and on our children."
- 26 Then he released Barabbas to them; and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered Him to be crucified.
- 27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the Praetorium and gathered the whole garrison around Him.
- 28 And they stripped Him, and put a scarlet robe on Him.
- 29 And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it on 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 Then they spat on Him, and took the reed and struck Him on the head.
- 31 And when they had mocked Him, they took the robe off Him, and put his own clothes on Him, and led Him away to crucify Him.
- 32 Now as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. Him they compelled to bear His cross.
- 33 And when they come to a place called Golgotha, that is to say, Place of a Skull,
- 34 They gave Him vinegar to drink mixed with gall. But when He had tasted it, He would not drink.
- 35 Then they crucified Him, and divided His garments, casting lots, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, "They parted my garments among them, and for my clothes they cast lots."
- 36 And sitting down they watched Him there.
- 37 And they put over His head the charge against Him written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
- 38 Then two thieves were crucified with Him, one on the right, and another on the left.
- 39 And those who passed by reviled Him, wagging their heads,
- 40 and saying, "You who demolish the temple, and erect it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross."
- 41 In the same way also the chief priests mocking Him with the scribes and elders, said,
- 42 "He saved others; Himself He cannot save. If He is 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, who were crucified with Him, reviled Him with the same thing.
- 45 Now from the sixth hour until the ninth hour there was darkness over all the land.
- 46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" that is to say, "My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?"
- 47 Some of them that stood there when they heard that said, "This man is calling for Elijah."
- 48 And immediately one of them ran, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, they put it on a reed, and offered it to Him to drink.
- 49 The rest said, "Leave Him alone, let us see whether Elijah will come to save Him."
- 50 Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and released His Spirit.
- 51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to the bottom: and the earth quaked, and the rocks split open,
- 52 and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who were asleep arose,
- 53 and came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared to many.
- 54 So when the centurion and those with Him, who were guarding Jesus, saw the earthquake and the things that occurred, they feared greatly saying, "Truly this was the Son of God."
- 55 And many women who followed Jesus from Galilee ministering to Him, were there watching from afar,
- 56 among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee’s sons.
- 57 Now when the evening had come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also was himself Jesus’ disciple.
- 58 He went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be given.
- 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 cut out in the rock; and he rolled a large stone against the door of the tomb, and departed.
- 61 And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the tomb.
- 62 On the next day, which followed the Day of the Preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees gathered together to Pilate,
- 63 saying, "Sir, we remember, while He was still alive, how that deceiver said, "After three days I will rise again."
- 64 Therefore command that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say to the people, 'He is risen from the dead.' So the last deception will be worse than the first."
- 65 Pilate said to them, "You have a guard; go your way, make it as secure as you can."
- 66 So they went and made the tomb secure, sealing the stone and setting the guard.
