< Matthew 27 >
1 But having become morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people held consultation against Jesus in order to condemn him to death.
BUT when it was morning, the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jeshu, how they should put him to death.
2 And having bound him, they led him away and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
And they bound him, and led him away, and delivered him to Pilatos the governor.
3 Then Judas, who betrayed him, after seeing that he was condemned, having repented, he brought back the thirty silver pieces to the chief priests and elders,
Then Jihuda the traitor, when he saw that Jeshu was condemned, repented him, and went hastily, and returned those thirty of silver unto the chief priests and elders,
4 saying, I sinned, having betrayed innocent blood. But they said, What is it to us? See thou to it.
and said, I have sinned, for I have betrayed the innocent blood. But they said to him, To us? what to us? Thou knowest, -thou!
5 And having cast down the silver pieces in the temple, he departed, and after going away, he hanged himself.
And he cast down the silver in the temple, and passed away, and went and strangled himself.
6 And after taking the silver pieces, the chief priests said, It is not permitted to put them into the treasury, since it is a price of blood.
But the chief priests took up the silver, and said, It is not lawful that we throw it into the place of offering, because it is the price of blood.
7 And having held consultation, they bought the potter's field with them for burial for foreigners.
And they took counsel, and bought with it the field of the potter, for the burial-place of strangers.
8 Therefore that field was called the field of blood, to this day.
Wherefore that field has been called, The field of blood, until this day.
9 Then that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, which says, And they took the thirty silver pieces, the price of him who was valued, whom they valued from the sons of Israel,
Then was fulfilled what had been spoken by the prophet, who said, And I took the thirty (pieces) of silver, the price of him who was precious, whom the sons of Isroel bargained for;
10 and they gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.
and gave them for the field of the potter, as the Lord commanded me.
11 Now Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor questioned him, saying, Are thou the king of the Jews? And Jesus said to him, Thou say.
But Jeshu himself stood before the governor. And the governor questioned him, and said to him, Thou art the king of the Jihudoyee? Jeshu said to him, Thou hast said.
12 And when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.
And while the chief priests and elders were accusing him, he returned not a word.
13 Then Pilate says to him, Do thou not hear how many things they testify against thee?
Then said Pilatos unto him, Hearest thou not what they witness against thee?
14 And he did not answer him, not even one word, so as for the governor to marvel greatly.
But he gave him no answer, no, not in one word; and upon this (Pilate) marvelled greatly.
15 Now during a feast the governor had been accustomed to release to the crowd one prisoner whom they wanted.
Now at every festival the governor was accustomed to release one of the bound unto the people, whomsoever they would.
16 And they had then a notorious prisoner called Barabbas.
But there was (then) bound a notorious prisoner who was called Bar-aba.
17 When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, Whom do ye want I should release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?
And when they were assembled, Pilatos said to them, Whom will you that I release unto you, Bar-aba, or Jeshu who is called the Meshicha?
18 For he knew that they delivered him up because of envy.
For Pilatos knew that from malice they had delivered him.
19 And while he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, There is nothing for thee and that righteous man. For I suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.
But while the governor sat upon his tribunal, his wife sent to him saying, Let there be nothing between thee and that Just One; for much have I suffered in a dream to-day on his account.
20 But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes that they should ask for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that he should release to them Bar-aba, that they might destroy Jeshu.
21 Now the governor having answered, he said to them, Which of the two do ye want I would release to you? And they said, Barabbas.
And the governor answered and said to them, Whom will you that I shall release to you of these two? Then they said, Bar-aba.
22 Pilate says to them, What then shall I do to Jesus who is called Christ? They all say to him, He should be crucified.
Pilatos saith to them, And to Jeshu who is called the Meshicha, what shall I do with him? They all said, Let him be crucified.
23 And the governor said, For what evil has he done? But they cried out even more, saying, He should be crucified.
Pilatos saith to them, Why, what evil hath he done? But they clamoured the more, and said, Let him be crucified!
24 And when Pilate saw that he was accomplishing nothing, but rather an uproar was developing, after taking water, he washed his hands in front of the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man. See ye to it.
Then Pilatos, when he saw that nothing availed, but that the tumult became greater, took waters (and) washed his hands before the assembly, and said, I am expiated from the blood of this Just One. You shall know.
25 And having answered, all the people said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
And all the people answered and said, His blood upon us, and upon our children!
26 Then he released Barabbas to them, and having scourged Jesus he delivered him so that he would be crucified.
THEN he released to them Bar-aba; and scourged Jeshu with thongs, and delivered him to be crucified.
27 Then the soldiers of the governor, having taken Jesus into the Praetorium, gathered the whole band to him.
Then the soldiers of the governor took Jeshu to the Praetorium, and the whole cohort gathered against him.
28 And having stripped him, they put a scarlet robe on him.
And they stripped him, and invested him with a cloak of crimson.
29 And having woven a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand. And having knelt down before him, they ridiculed him, saying, Hail, king of the Jews!
And they interwove a crown of thorns, and set it upon his head, and a cane in his right hand: and they kneeled upon their knees before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, king of the Jihudoyee!
30 And having spat upon him, they took the reed and were striking him on his head.
And they did spit in his face, and took the cane, and struck him upon his head.
31 And after they ridiculed him, they took the robe off of him, and put his clothes on him, and led him away in order to crucify.
And when they had derided him, they stripped him of the cloak, and clothed him with his own garments, and led him away to be crucified.
32 And while coming out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. They drafted this man, so that he might take his cross.
And when they had gone forth, they found a Kurinean man whose name was Shemun: this (man) they compel to carry his cross.
33 And having come to a place called Golgotha, that is called, the place of a skull,
And they came to a place which is called Gogultho, which is expounded, The skull.
34 they gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall. And having tasted it, he would not drink.
And they gave him to drink vinegar mingled with gall: and he tasted, but was not willing to drink.
35 And when they crucified him, they divided his garments, casting a lot.
And when they had crucified him, they divided his garments by lot: that what was spoken by the prophet might be fulfilled, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.
36 And as they sat, they keep watch over him there.
And they sat down and watched him there.
37 And they set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
And they placed over his head the occasion of his death, in the writing, This (is) Jeshu, the King of the Jihudoyee.
38 Then two robbers are crucified with him, one at the right hand and one at the left.
AND they crucified with him two thieves, one on his right hand, and one on his left.
39 And those who passed by reviled him, shaking their heads,
But they who passed by railed against him, moving their heads,
40 and saying, Thou who destroy the temple, and build it in three days, save thyself. If thou are the Son of God, come down from the cross.
and saying, Destroyer of the temple, and builder of it in three days! deliver thyself, if thou art the Son of Aloha, and come down from the cross.
41 And likewise also the chief priests, ridiculing with the scholars, and elders, and Pharisees, said,
Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders and Pharishee, saying,
42 He saved others, he cannot save himself. If he is the king of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe in him.
He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Isroel, let him now descend from the cross, that we may see and believe in him.
43 He trusted in God, let him rescue him now, if he wants him, for he said, I am the Son of God.
He trusted upon Aloha; let him liberate him now, if he delighteth in him; for he said, I am the Son of Aloha.
44 And also the robbers who were crucified with him reviled him the same way.
Likewise also the robbers who were crucified with him reviled him.
45 Now from the sixth hour darkness developed over all the land until the ninth hour.
BUT from the sixth hour there was darkness upon all the land until the ninth hour.
46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a great voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? That is, My God, my God, why have thou forsaken me?
And about the ninth hour Jeshu cried with a high voice, Aloha! Aloha! why hast thou forsaken me?
47 And some of those who stood there, when they heard it, said, This man calls Elijah.
But certain of them who stood there, when they heard, said, This hath cried unto Ilio.
48 And straightaway one of them, after running, and having taken a sponge, and having filled it with vinegar, put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
And forthwith ran one from them, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and set it upon a cane, and gave him to drink.
49 But the others said, Leave thou be. We might see if Elijah comes he will save him.
But the rest said, Let alone, we will see whether Ilio (will) come to deliver him.
50 And Jesus, having cried out again in a great voice, yielded up his spirit.
But he, Jeshu, again cried with a high voice, and dismissed his spirit.
51 And behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two from the top to the bottom, and the earth quaked, and the rocks split,
And at once the veil of the temple was rent in twain from above to beneath; and the earth was shaken, and the rocks were riven.
52 and the sepulchers were opened, and many bodies of the sanctified who have been asleep arose.
And the house of the buried was opened; and the bodies of many of the saints who had been asleep arose,
53 And having come forth out of the sepulchers after his resurrection they entered into the holy city and appeared to many.
and came forth, and after his resurrection went into the holy city, and were seen by many.
54 Now the centurion, and those with him watching over Jesus, when they saw the earthquake, and the things that happened, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
But the centurion and those with him, who guarded Jeshu, when they saw the commotion and those (portents) which took place, feared greatly, and said, Assuredly this was the Son of Aloha.
55 And many women were there watching from afar, who followed Jesus from Galilee, serving him,
(And) many women were there, beholding from afar; those who had come after Jeshu from Galila, and had ministered unto him.
56 among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
One of them was Mariam Magdolitha, and Mariam the mother of Jakub and of Josi, and the mother of the sons of Zabdai.
57 And having become evening, there came a rich man from Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was discipled by Jesus.
BUT when it was evening, there came a rich man from Rometha, whose name was Jauseph, who himself also was a disciple of Jeshu.
58 This man having come to Pilate, requested the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be given.
This went unto Pilatos, and begged the body of Jeshu. And Pilatos commanded that the body should be given to him.
59 And Joseph having taken the body, wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
And Jauseph took the body, and wound it round in a cloth of pure linen,
60 and laid it in his own new sepulcher, which he hewed out in the rock. And having rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulcher, he departed.
and laid it in a new house of burial of his own, which was hewn out in the rock. And they rolled a great stone, and heaved it against the door of the sepulchre, and went.
61 And Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary were there, sitting opposite the tomb.
Now there were there Mariam Magdolitha and the other Mariam, who were sitting over against the sepulchre.
62 Now on the morrow, which is after the Preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees came together to Pilate,
BUT the day which was next after the preparation, the chief priests and Pharishee came together unto Pilatos,
63 saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said while he was still alive, After three days I am raised.
saying to him, Our lord, we remember that that impostor said while alive, That after three days I will arise.
64 Command therefore to secure the tomb until the third day, lest his disciples having come by night steal him away, and say to the people, He was raised from the dead. And the last error will be worse than the first.
Command therefore that they watch the sepulchre till (after) the third of the days; lest his disciples come, and steal him away by night, and tell the people that from the house of the dead he has risen, and the last delusion be worse than the first.
65 Pilate said to them, Ye have security. Go, make it as secure as ye know how.
Pilatos saith to them, Ye have guards; go, watch diligently, as ye know how.
66 And having gone, they made the tomb secure, with the security having sealed the stone.
So they went, and set a watch (about) the sepulchre, and sealed the stone along with the guards.
