1. Very early in the morning, the leading priests, the older leaders, the teachers of the law, and all the Jewish council decided what to do with Jesus. They tied him, led him away, and turned him over to Pilate, the governor.
|
1. And G2532 straightway G2112 in G1909 the G3588 morning G4404 the G3588 chief priests G749 held G4160 a consultation G4824 with G3326 the G3588 elders G4245 and G2532 scribes G1122 and G2532 the G3588 whole G3650 council G4892 , and bound G1210 Jesus G2424 , and carried him away G667 , and G2532 delivered G3860 him to Pilate G4091 .
|
2. Pilate asked Jesus, "Are you the king of the Jews?" Jesus answered, "Those are your words."
|
2. And G2532 Pilate G4091 asked G1905 him G846 , Art G1488 thou G4771 the G3588 King G935 of the G3588 Jews G2453 ? And G1161 he G3588 answering G611 said G2036 unto him G846 , Thou G4771 sayest G3004 it.
|
3. The leading priests accused Jesus of many things.
|
3. And G2532 the G3588 chief priests G749 accused G2723 him G846 of many things G4183 : but G1161 he G3588 answered G611 nothing G3762 .
|
4. So Pilate asked Jesus another question, "You can see that they are accusing you of many things. Aren't you going to answer?"
|
4. And G1161 Pilate G4091 asked G1905 him G846 again G3825 , saying G3004 , Answerest G611 thou G3756 nothing G3762 ? behold G2396 how many things G4214 they witness against G2649 thee G4675 .
|
5. But Jesus still said nothing, so Pilate was very surprised.
|
5. But G1161 Jesus G2424 yet G3765 answered G611 nothing G3762 ; so that G5620 Pilate G4091 marveled G2296 .
|
6. Every year at the time of the Passover the governor would free one prisoner whom the people chose.
|
6. Now G1161 at G2596 that feast G1859 he released G630 unto them G846 one G1520 prisoner G1198 , whomsoever G3746 they desired G154 .
|
7. At that time, there was a man named Barabbas in prison who was a rebel and had committed murder during a riot.
|
7. And G1161 there was G2258 one named G3004 Barabbas G912 , which lay bound G1210 with G3326 them that had made insurrection with him G4955 , who G3748 had committed G4160 murder G5408 in G1722 the G3588 insurrection G4714 .
|
8. The crowd came to Pilate and began to ask him to free a prisoner as he always did.
|
8. And G2532 the G3588 multitude G3793 crying aloud G310 began G756 to desire G154 him to do as G2531 he had ever G104 done G4160 unto them G846 .
|
9. So Pilate asked them, "Do you want me to free the king of the Jews?"
|
9. But G1161 Pilate G4091 answered G611 them G846 , saying G3004 , Will G2309 ye that I release G630 unto you G5213 the G3588 King G935 of the G3588 Jews G2453 ?
|
10. Pilate knew that the leading priests had turned Jesus in to him because they were jealous.
|
10. For G1063 he knew G1097 that G3754 the G3588 chief priests G749 had delivered G3860 him G846 for G1223 envy G5355 .
|
11. But the leading priests had persuaded the people to ask Pilate to free Barabbas, not Jesus.
|
11. But G1161 the G3588 chief priests G749 moved G383 the G3588 people G3793 , that G2443 he should rather G3123 release G630 Barabbas G912 unto them G846 .
|
12. Then Pilate asked the crowd again, "So what should I do with this man you call the king of the Jews?"
|
12. And G1161 Pilate G4091 answered G611 and said G2036 again G3825 unto them G846 , What G5101 will G2309 ye then G3767 that I shall do G4160 unto him whom G3739 ye call G3004 the G3588 King G935 of the G3588 Jews G2453 ?
|
13. They shouted, "Crucify him!"
|
13. And G1161 they G3588 cried out G2896 again G3825 , Crucify G4717 him G846 .
|
14. Pilate asked, "Why? What wrong has he done?" But they shouted even louder, "Crucify him!"
|
14. Then G1161 Pilate G4091 said G3004 unto them G846 , Why G1063 , what G5101 evil G2556 hath he done G4160 ? And G1161 they G3588 cried out G2896 the more exceedingly G4056 , Crucify G4717 him G846 .
|
15. Pilate wanted to please the crowd, so he freed Barabbas for them. After having Jesus beaten with whips, he handed Jesus over to the soldiers to be crucified.
|
15. And G1161 so Pilate G4091 , willing G1014 to content G4160 G2425 the G3588 people G3793 , released G630 Barabbas G912 unto them G846 , and G2532 delivered G3860 Jesus G2424 , when he had scourged G5417 him, to G2443 be crucified G4717 .
|
16. The soldiers took Jesus into the governor's palace (called the Praetorium) and called all the other soldiers together.
|
16. And G1161 the G3588 soldiers G4757 led him away G520 G846 into G2080 the G3588 hall G833 , called G3603 Praetorium G4232 ; and G2532 they call together G4779 the G3588 whole G3650 band G4686 .
|
17. They put a purple robe on Jesus and used thorny branches to make a crown for his head.
|
17. And G2532 they clothed him with G1746 G846 purple G4209 , and G2532 plaited G4120 a crown G4735 of thorns G174 , and put it about G4060 his G846 head,
|
18. They began to call out to him, "Hail, King of the Jews!"
|
18. And G2532 began G756 to salute G782 him G846 , Hail G5463 , King G935 of the G3588 Jews G2453 !
|
19. The soldiers beat Jesus on the head many times with a stick. They spit on him and made fun of him by bowing on their knees and worshiping him.
|
19. And G2532 they smote G5180 him G846 on the G3588 head G2776 with a reed G2563 , and G2532 did spit upon G1716 him G846 , and G2532 bowing G5087 their knees G1119 worshiped G4352 him G846 .
|
20. After they finished, the soldiers took off the purple robe and put his own clothes on him again. Then they led him out of the palace to be crucified.
|
20. And G2532 when G3753 they had mocked G1702 him G846 , they took off G1562 the G3588 purple G4209 from him G846 , and G2532 put his own clothes on G1746 G2398 G2440 him G846 , and G2532 led him out G1806 G846 to G2443 crucify G4717 him G846 .
|
21. A man named Simon from Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, was coming from the fields to the city. The soldiers forced Simon to carry the cross for Jesus.
|
21. And G2532 they compel G29 one G5100 Simon G4613 a Cyrenian G2956 , who passed by G3855 , coming G2064 out of G575 the country G68 , the G3588 father G3962 of Alexander G223 and G2532 Rufus G4504 , to G2443 bear G142 his G846 cross G4716 .
|
22. They led Jesus to the place called Golgotha, which means the Place of the Skull.
|
22. And G2532 they bring G5342 him G846 unto G1909 the place G5117 Golgotha G1115 , which is G3603 , being interpreted G3177 , The place G5117 of a skull G2898 .
|
23. The soldiers tried to give Jesus wine mixed with myrrh to drink, but he refused.
|
23. And G2532 they gave G1325 him G846 to drink G4095 wine G3631 mingled with myrrh G4669 : but G1161 he G3588 received G2983 it not G3756 .
|
24. The soldiers crucified Jesus and divided his clothes among themselves, throwing lots to decide what each soldier would get.
|
24. And G2532 when they had crucified G4717 him G846 , they parted G1266 his G846 garments G2440 , casting G906 lots G2819 upon G1909 them G846 , what every man G5101 G5101 should take G142 .
|
25. It was nine o'clock in the morning when they crucified Jesus.
|
25. And G1161 it was G2258 the third G5154 hour G5610 , and G2532 they crucified G4717 him G846 .
|
26. There was a sign with this charge against Jesus written on it: the king of the jews.
|
26. And G2532 the G3588 superscription G1923 of his G846 accusation G156 was G2258 written over G1924 , THE G3588 KING G935 OF THE G3588 JEWS G2453 .
|
27. They also put two robbers on crosses beside Jesus, one on the right, and the other on the left.
|
27. And G2532 with G4862 him G846 they crucify G4717 two G1417 thieves G3027 ; the one G1520 on G1537 his right hand G1188 , and G2532 the other G1520 on G1537 his G846 left G2176 .
