From Textus Receptus

• 1 And straightway in the morning the chiefe Priests helde a consultation with the Elders and Scribes, and the whole Councell, and bound Iesus, and caried him away, and deliuered him to Pilate.
• 2 And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Iewes? And hee answering, said vnto him, Thou sayest it.
• 3 And the chiefe Priests accused him of many things: but hee answered nothing.
• 4 And Pilate asked him againe, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they witnesse against thee.
• 5 But Iesus yet answered nothing, so that Pilate marueiled.
• 6 Now at that Feast he released vnto them one prisoner, whomsoeuer they desired.
• 7 And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.
• 8 And the multitude crying alowd, began to desire him to doe as he had euer done vnto them.
• 9 But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release vnto you the King of the Iewes?
• 10 (For hee knew that the chiefe Priests had deliuered him for enuie.)
• 11 But the chiefe Priests mooued the people, that hee should rather release Barabbas vnto them.
• 12 And Pilate answered, and said againe vnto them, What will yee then that I shall do vnto him whom ye call the King of the Iewes?
• 13 And they cried out againe, Crucifie him.
• 14 Then Pilate saide vnto them, Why, what euill hath hee done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucifie him.
• 15 ¶ And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas vnto them, and deliuered Iesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.
• 16 And the souldiers led him away into the hall, called Pretorium, and they call together the whole band.
• 17 And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crowne of thornes, and put it about his head,
• 18 And beganne to salute him, Haile King of the Iewes.
• 19 And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit vpon him, and bowing their knees, worshipped him.
• 20 And when they had mocked him, they tooke off the purple from him, and put his owne clothes on him, and led him out to crucifie him.
• 21 And they compell one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, comming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to beare his Crosse.
• 22 And they bring him vnto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, the place of a skull.
• 23 And they gaue him to drinke, wine mingled with myrrhe: but he receiued it not.
• 24 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots vpon them, what euery man should take.
• 25 And it was the third houre, and they crucified him.
• 26 And the superscription of his accusation was written ouer, THE KING OF THE IEWES.
• 27 And with him they crucifie two theeues, the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.
• 28 And the Scripture was fulfilled, which sayeth, And hee was numbred with the transgressours.
• 29 And they that passed by, railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah thou that destroyest the Temple, and buildest it in three dayes,
• 30 Saue thy selfe, and come downe from the Crosse.
• 31 Likewise also the chiefe Priests mocking, said among themselues with the Scribes, He saued others, himselfe he cannot saue.
• 32 Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the Crosse, that we may see and beleeue: And they that were crucified with him, reuiled him.
• 33 And when the sixth houre was come, there was darkenesse ouer the whole land, vntill the ninth houre.
• 34 And at the ninth houre, Iesus cryed with a loude voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lamasabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
• 35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calleth Elias.
• 36 And one ranne, and filled a spunge full of vineger, and put it on a reed, and gaue him to drinke, saying, Let alone, let vs see whether Elias will come to take him downe.
• 37 And Iesus cryed with a loude voice, and gaue vp the ghost.
• 38 And the vaile of the Temple was rent in twaine, from the top to the bottome.
• 39 ¶ And when the Centurion which stood ouer against him, saw that hee so cryed out, and gaue vp the ghost, hee said, Truely this man was the Sonne of God.
• 40 There were also women looking on afarre off, among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of Iames the lesse, and of Ioses, and Salome:
• 41 Who also when hee was in Galile, followed him, and ministred vnto him, and many other women which came vp with him vnto Hierusalem.
• 42 ¶ And now when the euen was come, (because it was the Preparation, that is, the day before the Sabbath)
• 43 Ioseph of Arimathea, an honourable counseller, which also waited for the kingdome of God, came, and went in boldly vnto Pilate, and craued the body of Iesus.
• 44 And Pilate marueiled if he were already dead, and calling vnto him the Centurion, hee asked him whether hee had beene any while dead.
• 45 And when he knew it of the Centurion, he gaue the body to Ioseph.
• 46 And hee bought fine linnen, and tooke him downe, and wrapped him in the linnen, and laide him in a sepulchre, which was hewen out of a rocke, and rolled a stone vnto the doore of the sepulchre.
• 47 And Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of Ioses behelde where he was laide.
