< John 19 >

1 Then Pilate took Jesus and had Him flogged.
ܗܝܕܝܢ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܢܓܕܗ ܠܝܫܘܥ
2 The soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns, set it on His head, and dressed Him in a purple robe.
ܘܐܤܛܪܛܝܘܛܐ ܓܕܠܘ ܟܠܝܠܐ ܡܢ ܟܘܒܐ ܘܤܡܘ ܠܗ ܒܪܫܗ ܘܟܤܝܘܗܝ ܢܚܬܐ ܕܐܪܓܘܢܐ
3 And they went up to Him again and again, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and slapping Him in the face.
ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܫܠܡ ܠܟ ܡܠܟܐ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܘܡܚܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ ܥܠ ܦܟܘܗܝ
4 Once again Pilate came out and said to the Jews, “Look, I am bringing Him out to you to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against Him.”
ܘܢܦܩ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܬܘܒ ܠܒܪ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܗܐ ܡܦܩ ܐܢܐ ܠܗ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܒܪ ܕܬܕܥܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܐܢܐ ܒܬܪܗ ܐܦܠܐ ܚܕܐ ܥܠܬܐ
5 When Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, “Here is the man!”
ܘܢܦܩ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܒܪ ܟܕ ܐܝܬ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܟܠܝܠܐ ܕܟܘܒܐ ܘܢܚܬܐ ܕܐܪܓܘܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܗܐ ܓܒܪܐ
6 As soon as the chief priests and officers saw Him, they shouted, “Crucify Him! Crucify Him!” “You take Him and crucify Him,” Pilate replied, “for I find no basis for a charge against Him.”
ܟܕ ܕܝܢ ܚܙܐܘܗܝ ܪܒܝ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܕܚܫܐ ܩܥܘ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܨܠܘܒܝܗܝ ܨܠܘܒܝܗܝ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܕܒܪܘ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܙܘܩܦܘܗܝ ܐܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܐܢܐ ܒܗ ܥܠܬܐ
7 “We have a law,” answered the Jews, “and according to that law He must die, because He declared Himself to be the Son of God.”
ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܠܢ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܢ ܘܐܝܟ ܕܒܢܡܘܤܢ ܚܝܒ ܗܘ ܡܘܬܐ ܕܥܒܕ ܢܦܫܗ ܒܪܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ
8 When Pilate heard this statement, he was even more afraid,
ܟܕ ܫܡܥ ܕܝܢ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܗܕܐ ܡܠܬܐ ܝܬܝܪܐܝܬ ܕܚܠ
9 and he went back into the Praetorium. “Where are You from?” he asked. But Jesus gave no answer.
ܘܥܠ ܬܘܒ ܠܦܪܛܘܪܝܢ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܐܝܡܟܐ ܐܢܬ ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܦܬܓܡܐ ܠܐ ܝܗܒ ܠܗ
10 So Pilate said to Him, “Do You refuse to speak to me? Do You not know that I have authority to release You and authority to crucify You?”
ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܥܡܝ ܠܐ ܡܡܠܠ ܐܢܬ ܠܐ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܬ ܕܫܠܝܛ ܐܢܐ ܕܐܫܪܝܟ ܘܫܠܝܛ ܐܢܐ ܕܐܙܩܦܟ
11 Jesus answered, “You would have no authority over Me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed Me over to you is guilty of greater sin.”
ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܟ ܥܠܝ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܐܦ ܠܐ ܚܕ ܐܠܘ ܠܐ ܝܗܝܒ ܗܘܐ ܠܟ ܡܢ ܠܥܠ ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܗܘ ܡܢ ܕܐܫܠܡܢܝ ܠܟ ܪܒܐ ܗܝ ܚܛܝܬܗ ܡܢ ܕܝܠܟ
12 From then on, Pilate tried to release Him, but the Jews kept shouting, “If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar. Anyone who declares himself a king is defying Caesar.”
ܘܡܛܠ ܗܕܐ ܨܒܐ ܗܘܐ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܕܢܫܪܝܘܗܝ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܕܝܢ ܩܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܕܐܢ ܠܗܢܐ ܫܪܐ ܐܢܬ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܪܚܡܗ ܕܩܤܪ ܟܠ ܡܢ ܓܝܪ ܕܢܦܫܗ ܡܠܟܐ ܥܒܕ ܤܩܘܒܠܐ ܗܘ ܕܩܤܪ
13 When Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat on the judgment seat at a place called the Stone Pavement, which in Hebrew is Gabbatha.
ܟܕ ܫܡܥ ܕܝܢ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܗܕܐ ܡܠܬܐ ܐܦܩܗ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܠܒܪ ܘܝܬܒ ܥܠ ܒܝܡ ܒܕܘܟܬܐ ܕܡܬܩܪܝܐ ܪܨܝܦܬܐ ܕܟܐܦܐ ܥܒܪܐܝܬ ܕܝܢ ܡܬܐܡܪܐ ܓܦܝܦܬܐ
14 It was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about the sixth hour. And Pilate said to the Jews, “Here is your King!”
ܘܥܪܘܒܬܐ ܗܘܬ ܕܦܨܚܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܗܘܝ ܐܝܟ ܫܥܐ ܫܬ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܗܐ ܡܠܟܟܘܢ
15 At this, they shouted, “Away with Him! Away with Him! Crucify Him!” “Shall I crucify your King?” Pilate asked. “We have no king but Caesar,” replied the chief priests.
ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܩܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܫܩܘܠܝܗܝ ܫܩܘܠܝܗܝ ܨܠܘܒܝܗܝ ܨܠܘܒܝܗܝ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܠܡܠܟܟܘܢ ܐܙܩܘܦ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܪܒܝ ܟܗܢܐ ܠܝܬ ܠܢ ܡܠܟܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܩܤܪ
16 Then Pilate handed Jesus over to be crucified, and the soldiers took Him away.
ܗܝܕܝܢ ܐܫܠܡܗ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܢܙܩܦܘܢܝܗܝ ܘܕܒܪܘܗܝ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܦܩܘܗܝ
17 Carrying His own cross, He went out to The Place of the Skull, which in Hebrew is called Golgotha.
ܟܕ ܫܩܝܠ ܙܩܝܦܗ ܠܕܘܟܬܐ ܕܡܬܩܪܝܐ ܩܪܩܦܬܐ ܥܒܪܐܝܬ ܕܝܢ ܡܬܐܡܪܐ ܓܓܘܠܬܐ
18 There they crucified Him, and with Him two others, one on each side, with Jesus in the middle.
ܐܬܪ ܕܙܩܦܘܗܝ ܘܥܡܗ ܬܪܝܢ ܐܚܪܢܝܢ ܚܕ ܡܟܐ ܘܚܕ ܡܟܐ ܘܠܝܫܘܥ ܒܡܨܥܬܐ
19 Pilate also had a notice posted on the cross. It read: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
ܘܟܬܒ ܐܦ ܠܘܚܐ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܘܤܡ ܥܠ ܙܩܝܦܗ ܟܬܝܒ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܗܟܢܐ ܗܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܢܨܪܝܐ ܡܠܟܐ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ
20 Many of the Jews read this sign, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.
ܘܠܗܢܐ ܕܦܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܡܢ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܩܪܐܘܗܝ ܡܛܠ ܕܩܪܝܒܐ ܗܘܬ ܠܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܕܘܟܬܐ ܕܐܙܕܩܦ ܒܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܟܬܝܒܐ ܗܘܐ ܥܒܪܐܝܬ ܘܝܘܢܐܝܬ ܘܪܗܘܡܐܝܬ
21 So the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but only that He said, ‘I am the King of the Jews.’”
ܘܐܡܪܘ ܪܒܝ ܟܗܢܐ ܠܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܠܐ ܬܟܬܘܒ ܕܡܠܟܐ ܗܘ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܐܠܐ ܕܗܘ ܐܡܪ ܕܡܠܟܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ
22 Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
ܐܡܪ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܡܕܡ ܕܟܬܒܬ ܟܬܒܬ
23 When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they divided His garments into four parts, one for each soldier, with the tunic remaining. It was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom.
ܐܤܛܪܛܝܘܛܐ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܙܩܦܘܗܝ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܫܩܠܘ ܢܚܬܘܗܝ ܘܥܒܕܘ ܠܐܪܒܥ ܡܢܘܢ ܡܢܬܐ ܠܚܕ ܡܢ ܐܤܛܪܛܝܘܛܐ ܟܘܬܝܢܗ ܕܝܢ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܗܘܬ ܕܠܐ ܚܝܛܐ ܡܢ ܠܥܠ ܙܩܝܪܬܐ ܟܠܗ
24 So they said to one another, “Let us not tear it. Instead, let us cast lots to see who will get it.” This was to fulfill the Scripture: “They divided My garments among them, and cast lots for My clothing.” So that is what the soldiers did.
ܘܐܡܪܘ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܠܐ ܢܤܕܩܝܗ ܐܠܐ ܢܦܤ ܥܠܝܗ ܡܦܤ ܕܡܢܘ ܬܗܘܐ ܘܫܠܡ ܟܬܒܐ ܕܐܡܪ ܕܦܠܓܘ ܢܚܬܝ ܒܝܢܬܗܘܢ ܘܥܠ ܠܒܘܫܝ ܐܪܡܝܘ ܦܤܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܥܒܕܘ ܐܤܛܪܛܝܘܛܐ
25 Near the cross of Jesus stood His mother and her sister, as well as Mary the wife of Clopas and Mary Magdalene.
ܩܝܡܢ ܗܘܝ ܕܝܢ ܠܘܬ ܙܩܝܦܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܗ ܘܚܬܗ ܕܐܡܗ ܘܡܪܝܡ ܗܝ ܕܩܠܝܘܦܐ ܘܡܪܝܡ ܡܓܕܠܝܬܐ
26 When Jesus saw His mother and the disciple whom He loved standing nearby, He said to His mother, “Woman, here is your son.”
ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܚܙܐ ܠܐܡܗ ܘܠܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܗܘ ܕܪܚܡ ܗܘܐ ܕܩܐܡ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܐܡܗ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܗܐ ܒܪܟܝ
27 Then He said to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” So from that hour, this disciple took her into his home.
ܘܐܡܪ ܠܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܗܘ ܗܐ ܐܡܟ ܘܡܢ ܗܝ ܫܥܬܐ ܕܒܪܗ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܗܘ ܠܘܬܗ
28 After this, knowing that everything had now been accomplished, and to fulfill the Scripture, Jesus said, “I am thirsty.”
ܒܬܪ ܗܠܝܢ ܝܕܥ ܝܫܘܥ ܕܟܠܡܕܡ ܐܫܬܠܡ ܘܕܢܬܡܠܐ ܟܬܒܐ ܐܡܪ ܨܗܐ ܐܢܐ
29 A jar of sour wine was sitting there. So they soaked a sponge in the wine, put it on a stalk of hyssop, and lifted it to His mouth.
ܘܡܐܢܐ ܤܝܡ ܗܘܐ ܕܡܠܐ ܚܠܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܡܠܘ ܐܤܦܘܓܐ ܡܢ ܚܠܐ ܘܤܡܘ ܥܠ ܙܘܦܐ ܘܩܪܒܘ ܠܘܬ ܦܘܡܗ
30 When Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished.” And bowing His head, He yielded up His spirit.
ܟܕ ܕܝܢ ܫܩܠ ܗܘ ܚܠܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܪ ܗܐ ܡܫܠܡ ܘܐܪܟܢ ܪܫܗ ܘܐܫܠܡ ܪܘܚܗ
31 It was the day of Preparation, and the next day was a High Sabbath. In order that the bodies would not remain on the cross during the Sabbath, the Jews asked Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies removed.
ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܕܝܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܥܪܘܒܬܐ ܗܘܬ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܐ ܢܒܘܬܘܢ ܦܓܪܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܥܠ ܙܩܝܦܝܗܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܫܒܬܐ ܢܓܗܐ ܝܘܡܐ ܗܘܐ ܓܝܪ ܪܒܐ ܝܘܡܐ ܕܫܒܬܐ ܗܝ ܘܒܥܘ ܡܢ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܕܢܬܒܪܘܢ ܫܩܝܗܘܢ ܕܗܢܘܢ ܙܩܝܦܐ ܘܢܚܬܘܢ ܐܢܘܢ
32 So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man who had been crucified with Jesus, and those of the other.
ܘܐܬܘ ܐܤܛܪܛܝܘܛܐ ܘܬܒܪܘ ܫܩܘܗܝ ܕܩܕܡܝܐ ܘܕܗܘ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܕܐܙܕܩܦ ܥܡܗ
33 But when they came to Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs.
ܘܟܕ ܐܬܘ ܠܘܬ ܝܫܘܥ ܚܙܘ ܕܡܝܬ ܠܗ ܡܢ ܟܕܘ ܘܠܐ ܬܒܪܘ ܫܩܘܗܝ
34 Instead, one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water flowed out.
ܐܠܐ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܐܤܛܪܛܝܘܛܐ ܡܚܝܗܝ ܒܕܦܢܗ ܒܠܘܟܝܬܐ ܘܡܚܕܐ ܢܦܩ ܕܡܐ ܘܡܝܐ
35 The one who saw it has testified to this, and his testimony is true. He knows that he is telling the truth, so that you also may believe.
ܘܡܢ ܕܚܙܐ ܐܤܗܕ ܘܫܪܝܪܐ ܗܝ ܤܗܕܘܬܗ ܘܗܘ ܝܕܥ ܕܫܪܪܐ ܐܡܪ ܕܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܬܗܝܡܢܘܢ
36 Now these things happened so that the Scripture would be fulfilled: “Not one of His bones will be broken.”
ܗܠܝܢ ܓܝܪ ܗܘܝ ܕܢܬܡܠܐ ܟܬܒܐ ܕܐܡܪ ܕܓܪܡܐ ܠܐ ܢܬܬܒܪ ܒܗ
37 And, as another Scripture says: “They will look on the One they have pierced.”
ܘܬܘܒ ܟܬܒܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܕܐܡܪ ܕܢܚܘܪܘܢ ܒܡܢ ܕܕܩܪܘ
38 Afterward, Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus (but secretly for fear of the Jews), asked Pilate to let him remove the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission, so he came and removed His body.
ܒܬܪ ܗܠܝܢ ܝܘܤܦ ܗܘ ܕܡܢ ܪܡܬܐ ܒܥܐ ܡܢ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܡܛܠ ܕܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܘܡܛܫܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܕܚܠܬܐ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܕܢܫܩܘܠ ܦܓܪܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܦܤ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ ܘܐܬܐ ܘܫܩܠ ܦܓܪܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ
39 Nicodemus, who had previously come to Jesus at night, also brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds.
ܘܐܬܐ ܐܦ ܢܝܩܕܡܘܤ ܗܘ ܕܐܬܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܠܘܬ ܝܫܘܥ ܒܠܠܝܐ ܘܐܝܬܝ ܥܡܗ ܚܘܢܛܬܐ ܕܡܘܪܐ ܘܕܥܠܘܝ ܐܝܟ ܡܐܐ ܠܝܛܪܝܢ
40 So they took the body of Jesus and wrapped it in linen cloths with the spices, according to the Jewish burial custom.
ܘܫܩܠܘܗܝ ܠܦܓܪܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܘܟܪܟܘܗܝ ܒܟܬܢܐ ܘܒܒܤܡܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܥܝܕܐ ܠܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܕܢܩܒܪܘܢ
41 Now there was a garden in the place where Jesus was crucified, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid.
ܐܝܬ ܗܘܬ ܕܝܢ ܒܗܝ ܕܘܟܬܐ ܕܐܙܕܩܦ ܒܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܓܢܬܐ ܘܒܗ ܒܓܢܬܐ ܒܝܬ ܩܒܘܪܐ ܚܕܬܐ ܕܐܢܫ ܥܕܟܝܠ ܠܐ ܐܬܬܤܝܡ ܗܘܐ ܒܗ
42 And because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and the tomb was nearby, they placed Jesus there.
ܘܤܡܘܗܝ ܬܡܢ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܡܛܠ ܕܫܒܬܐ ܥܐܠܐ ܗܘܬ ܘܡܛܠ ܕܩܪܝܒ ܗܘܐ ܩܒܪܐ
