< Matthew 27 >
1 Then, when morning arrived, all the leaders of the priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus, so that they might deliver him to death.

2 And they led him, bound, and handed him over to Pontius Pilate, the procurator.

3 Then Judas, who betrayed him, seeing that he had been condemned, regretting his conduct, brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the leaders of the priests and the elders,

5 And throwing down the pieces of silver in the temple, he departed. And going out, he hanged himself with a snare.

6 But the leaders of the priests, having taken up the pieces of silver, said, “It is not lawful to put them into the temple offerings, because it is the price of blood.”

7 Then, having taken counsel, they bought the potter’s field with it, as a burying place for sojourners.

8 For this reason, that field is called Haceldama, that is, ‘The Field of Blood,’ even to this very day.

9 Then what was spoken by the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled, saying, “And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of the one being appraised, whom they appraised before the sons of Israel,

11 Now Jesus stood before the procurator, and the procurator questioned him, saying, “You are the king of the Jews?” Jesus said to him, “You are saying so.”

12 And when he was accused by the leaders of the priests and the elders, he responded nothing.

13 Then Pilate said to him, “Do you not hear how much testimony they speak against you?”

14 And he did not respond any word to him, so that the procurator wondered greatly.

15 Now on the solemn day, the procurator was accustomed to release to the people one prisoner, whomever they wished.

16 And at that time, he had a notorious prisoner, who was called Barabbas.

17 Therefore, having been gathered together, Pilate said to them, “Who is it that you want me to release to you: Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?”

18 For he knew that it was out of envy they had handed him over.

19 But as he was sitting in the place for the tribunal, his wife sent to him, saying: “It is nothing to you, and he is just. For I have experienced many things today through a vision for his sake.”

20 But the leaders of the priests and the elders persuaded the people, so that they would ask for Barabbas, and so that Jesus would perish.

21 Then, in response, the procurator said to them, “Which of the two do you want to be released to you?” But they said to him, “Barabbas.”

23 The procurator said to them, “But what evil has he done?” But they cried out all the more, saying, “Let him be crucified.”

24 Then Pilate, seeing that he was able to accomplish nothing, but that a greater tumult was occurring, taking water, washed his hands in the sight of the people, saying: “I am innocent of the blood of this just man. See to it yourselves.”

26 Then he released Barabbas to them. But Jesus, having been scourged, he handed over to them, so that he would be crucified.

47 Then certain ones who were standing and listening there said, “This man calls upon Elijah.”

48 And one of them, running quickly, took a sponge and filled it with vinegar, and he set it on a reed and he gave it to him to drink.

49 Yet truly, the others said, “Wait. Let us see whether Elijah will come to free him.”

50 Then Jesus, crying out again with a loud voice, gave up his life.

51 And behold, the veil of the temple was torn into two parts, from top to bottom. And the earth was shaken, and the rocks were split apart.

52 And the tombs were opened. And many bodies of the saints, which had been sleeping, arose.

53 And going out from the tombs, after his resurrection, they went into the holy city, and they appeared to many.

54 Now the centurion and those who were with him, guarding Jesus, having seen the earthquake and the things that were done, were very fearful, saying: “Truly, this was the Son of God.”

55 And in that place, there were many women, at a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to him.

56 Among these were Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

57 Then, when evening had arrived, a certain wealthy man from Arimathea, named Joseph, arrived, who himself was also a disciple of Jesus.

58 This man approached Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered the body to be released.

59 And Joseph, taking the body, wrapped it in a clean finely-woven linen cloth,

60 and he placed it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out of a rock. And he rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb, and he went away.

61 Now Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were there, sitting opposite the sepulcher.

62 Then the next day, which is after the Preparation day, the leaders of the priests and the Pharisees went to Pilate together,

63 saying: “Lord, we have remembered that this seducer said, while he was still alive, ‘After three days, I will rise again.’

64 Therefore, order the sepulcher to be guarded until the third day, lest perhaps his disciples may come and steal him, and say to the people, ‘He has risen from the dead.’ And this last error would be worse than the first.”

65 Pilate said to them: “You have a guard. Go, guard it as you know how.”
