MARK Chapter 15 1 And straightway in the morning the chief priests with the elders and scribes, and the whole council, held a consultation, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate. 2 And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering saith unto him, Thou sayest. 3 And the chief priests accused him of many things. 4 And Pilate again asked him, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they accuse thee of. 5 But Jesus no more answered anything; insomuch that Pilate marvelled. 6 Now at the feast he used to release unto them one prisoner, whom they asked of him. 7 And there was one called Barabbas, lying bound with them that had made insurrection, men who in the insurrection had committed murder. 8 And the multitude went up and began to ask him to do as he was wont to do unto them. 9 And Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews? 10 For he perceived that for envy the chief priests had delivered him up. 11 But the chief priests stirred up the multitude, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them. 12 And Pilate again answered and said unto them, What then shall I do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews? 13 And they cried out again, Crucify him. 14 And Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out exceedingly, Crucify him. 15 And Pilate, wishing to content the multitude, released unto them Barabbas, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified. 16 And the soldiers led him away within the court, which is the Praetorium; and they call together the whole band. 17 And they clothe him with purple, and platting a crown of thorns, they put it on him; 18 and they began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews! 19 And they smote his head with a reed, and spat upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him. 20 And when they had mocked him, they took off from him the purple, and put on him his garments. And they lead him out to crucify him. 21 And they compel one passing by, Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to go with them, that he might bear his cross. 22 And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull. 23 And they offered him wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not. 24 And they crucify him, and part his garments among them, casting lots upon them, what each should take. 25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him. 26 And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS. 27 And with him they crucify two robbers; one on his right hand, and one on his left. 28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was reckoned with transgressors. 29 And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ha! Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, 30 save thyself, and come down from the cross. 31 In like manner also the chief priests mocking him among themselves with the scribes said, He saved others; himself he cannot save. 32 Let the Christ, the King of Israel, now come down from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reproached him. 33 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. 34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? 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 Elijah. 36 And one ran, and filling a sponge full of vinegar, put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let be; let us see whether Elijah cometh to take him down. 37 And Jesus uttered a loud voice, and gave up the ghost. 38 And the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom. 39 And when the centurion, who stood by over against him, saw that he so gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God. 40 And there were also women beholding from afar: among whom were both Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome; 41 who, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him; and many other women that came up with him unto Jerusalem. 42 And when even was now come, because it was the Preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath, 43 there came Joseph of Arimathaea, a councillor of honorable estate, who also himself was looking for the kingdom of God; and he boldly went in unto Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus. 44 And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead. 45 And when he learned it of the centurion, he granted the corpse to Joseph. 46 And he bought a linen cloth, and taking him down, wound him in the linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb which had been hewn out of a rock; and he rolled a stone against the door of the tomb. 47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.

MATTHEW Matthew 27:1 Now when morning was come, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death: Matthew 27:11 Now Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest. Matthew 27:12 And when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing. Matthew 27:13 Then saith Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee? Matthew 27:14 And he gave him no answer, not even to one word: insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly. Matthew 27:15 Now at the feast the governor was wont to release unto the multitude one prisoner, whom they would. Matthew 27:16 And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas. Matthew 27:17 When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ? Matthew 27:18 For he knew that for envy they had delivered him up. Matthew 27:19 And while he was sitting on the judgment-seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that righteous man; for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him. Matthew 27:20 Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes that they should ask for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus. Matthew 27:21 But the governor answered and said unto them, Which of the two will ye that I release unto you? And they said, Barabbas. Matthew 27:22 Pilate saith unto them, What then shall I do unto Jesus who is called Christ? They all say, Let him be crucified. Matthew 27:23 And he said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out exceedingly, saying, Let him be be crucified. Matthew 27:24 So when Pilate saw that he prevailed nothing, but rather that a tumult was arising, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man; see ye to it. Matthew 27:25 And all the people answered and said, His blood be on us, and on our children. Matthew 27:26 Then released he unto them Barabbas; but Jesus he scourged and delivered to be crucified. Matthew 27:27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the Praetorium, and gathered unto him the whole band. Matthew 27:28 And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe. Matthew 27:29 And they platted a crown of thorns and put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand; and they kneeled down before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews! Matthew 27:30 And they spat upon him, and took the reed and smote him on the head. Matthew 27:31 And when they had mocked him, they took off from him the robe, and put on him his garments, and led him away to crucify him. Matthew 27:32 And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to go with them, that he might bear his cross. Matthew 27:33 And they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, The place of a skull, Matthew 27:34 they gave him wine to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted it, he would not drink. Matthew 27:35 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments among them, casting lots; Matthew 27:36 and they sat and watched him there. Matthew 27:37 And they set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS. Matthew 27:38 Then are there crucified with him two robbers, one on the right hand and one on the left. Matthew 27:39 And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, Matthew 27:40 and saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself: if thou art the Son of God, come down from the cross. Matthew 27:41 In like manner also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said, Matthew 27:42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. He is the King of Israel; let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe on him. Matthew 27:43 He trusteth on God; let him deliver him now, if he desireth him: for he said, I am the Son of God. Matthew 27:44 And the robbers also that were crucified with him cast upon him the same reproach. Matthew 27:45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour. Matthew 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Matthew 27:47 And some of them stood there, when they heard it, said, This man calleth Elijah. Matthew 27:48 And straightway one of them ran, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink. Matthew 27:49 And the rest said, Let be; let us see whether Elijah cometh to save him. Matthew 27:50 And Jesus cried again with a loud voice, and yielded up his spirit. Matthew 27:51 And behold, the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake; and the rocks were rent; Matthew 27:52 and the tombs were opened; and many bodies of the saints that had fallen asleep were raised; Matthew 27:53 and coming forth out of the tombs after his resurrection they entered into the holy city and appeared unto many. Matthew 27:54 Now the centurion, and they that were with him watching Jesus, when they saw the earthquake, and the things that were done, feared exceedingly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God. Matthew 27:55 And many women were there beholding from afar, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him: Matthew 27:56 among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee. Matthew 27:57 And when even was come, there came a rich man from Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple: Matthew 27:58 this man went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded it to be given up. Matthew 27:59 And Joseph took the body, and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, Matthew 27:60 and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb, and departed. Matthew 27:61 And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.

LUKE Luke 23:2 And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ a king. Luke 23:3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest. Luke 23:18 But they cried out all together, saying, Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas: Luke 23:19 one who for a certain insurrection made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison. Luke 23:20 And Pilate spake unto them again, desiring to release Jesus; Luke 23:21 but they shouted, saying, Crucify, crucify him. Luke 23:22 And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath this man done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him and release him. Luke 23:23 But they were urgent with loud voices, asking that he might be crucified. And their voices prevailed. Luke 23:24 And Pilate gave sentence that what they asked for should be done. Luke 23:25 And he released him that for insurrection and murder had been cast into prison, whom they asked for; but Jesus he delivered up to their will. Luke 23:26 And when they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, and laid on him the cross, to bear it after Jesus. Luke 23:33 And when they came unto the place which is called The skull, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand and the other on the left. Luke 23:34 And Jesus said, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And parting his garments among them, they cast lots. Luke 23:35 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also scoffed at him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, his chosen. Luke 23:36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, offering him vinegar, Luke 23:37 and saying, If thou art the King of the Jews, save thyself. Luke 23:38 And there was also a superscription over him, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS. Luke 23:39 And one of the malefactors that were hanged railed on him, saying, Art not thou the Christ? save thyself and us. Luke 23:40 But the other answered, and rebuking him said, Dost thou not even fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? Luke 23:41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. Luke 23:42 And he said, Jesus, remember me when thou comest in thy kingdom. Luke 23:43 And he said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To-day shalt thou be with me in Paradise. Luke 23:44 And it was now about the sixth hour, and a darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour, Luke 23:45 the sun's light failing: and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst. Luke 23:46 And Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said this, he gave up the ghost. Luke 23:47 And when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man. Luke 23:48 And all the multitudes that came together to this sight, when they beheld the things that were done, returned smiting their breasts. Luke 23:49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed with him from Galilee, stood afar off, seeing these things. Luke 23:50 And behold, a man named Joseph, who was a councillor, a good and righteous man Luke 23:51 (he had not consented to their counsel and deed), a man of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, who was looking for the kingdom of God: Luke 23:52 this man went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus. Luke 23:53 And he took it down, and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that was hewn in stone, where never man had yet lain. Luke 23:54 And it was the day of the Preparation, and the sabbath drew on. Luke 23:55 And the women, who had come with him out of Galilee, followed after, and beheld the tomb, and how his body was laid. Luke 23:56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments. And on the sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
