John 19
1 Then therefore, Pilate took Jesus, and scourged him.
Then Pilate, therefore, took Jesus and scourged him.
2 And the soldiers platting a crown of thorns, put it upon his head; and they put on him a purple garment.
And the soldiers plaited a crown of thorn-branches, and put it upon his head; and they put on him a purple robe,
3 And they came to him, and said: Hail, king of the Jews; and they gave him blows.
and said: Hail, King of the Jews. And they struck him with their open hands.
4 Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith to them: Behold, I bring him forth unto you, that you may know that I find no cause in him.
Then Pilate came out again, and said to them: Behold, I bring him out to you, that you may know that I find no fault in him.
5 (Jesus therefore came forth, bearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment.) And he saith to them: Behold the Man.
Then Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorn-branches, and the purple robe. And Pilate said to them: Be hold the man!
6 When the chief priests, therefore, and the servants, had seen him, they cried out, saying: Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith to them: Take him you, and crucify him: for I find no cause in him.
When the chief priests and their attendants saw him, they cried out, saying: Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate said to them: Do you take him and crucify him; for I find no fault in him.
7 The Jews answered him: We have a law; and according to the law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.
The Jews answered: We have a law, and according to our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.
8 When Pilate therefore had heard this saying, he feared the more.
Then, when Pilate heard this word, he was the more afraid;
9 And he entered into the hall again, and he said to Jesus: Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.
and he went into the governor’s palace again, and said to Jesus: Whence are you? But Jesus gave him no answer.
10 Pilate therefore saith to him: Speakest thou not to me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and I have power to release thee?
Then Pilate said to him: Do you not speak to me? Do you not know that I have authority to crucify you, and authority to release you?
11 Jesus answered: Thou shouldst not have any power against me, unless it were given thee from above. Therefore, he that hath delivered me to thee, hath the greater sin.
Jesus answered: You could have no authority over me, had it not been given you from above. Therefore, he that delivered me to you, has the greater sin.
12 And from henceforth Pilate sought to release him. But the Jews cried out, saying: If thou release this man, thou art not Caesar’s friend. For whosoever maketh himself a king, speaketh against Caesar.
After this Pilate sought to release him. But the Jews cried out, saying: If you release this man, you are not Cæsar’s friend. Every one that makes himself a king, speaks against Cæsar
13 Now when Pilate had heard these words, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat, in the place that is called Lithostrotos, and in Hebrew Gabbatha.
Then Pilate, when he heard that word, led Jesus out, and sat on the judgment-seat, in a place called the Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha;
14 And it was the parasceve of the pasch, about the sixth hour, and he saith to the Jews: Behold your king.
it was the preparation for the passover, and about the third hour; and he said to the Jews, Behold your king!
15 But they cried out: Away with him; away with him; crucify him. Pilate saith to them: Shall I crucify your king? The chief priests answered: We have no king but Caesar.
But they cried out: Away with him, away with him; crucify him! Pilate said to them: Shall I crucify your king? The chief priests answered: We have no king but Cæsar
16 Then therefore he delivered him to them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him forth.
Then he, therefore, delivered him to them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.
17 And bearing his own cross, he went forth to that place which is called Calvary, but in Hebrew Golgotha.
And, bearing his cross, he went forth into a place called the Place of a Skull, which is called, in Hebrew, Golgotha,
18 Where they crucified him, and with him two others, one on each side, and Jesus in the midst.
where they crucified him, and with him two others, one on each side, and Jesus in the middle.
19 And Pilate wrote a title also, and he put it upon the cross. And the writing was: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
And Pilate wrote a superscription, and put it on the cross; and the writing was, JESUS THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
20 This title therefore many of the Jews did read: because the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, in Greek, and in Latin.
Therefore many of the Jews read this superscription, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city. And it was written in Hebrew and in Greek and in Latin.
21 Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate: Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am the King of the Jews.
Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate: Write not, The king of the Jews; but, that he said, I am the king of the Jews.
22 Pilate answered: What I have written, I have written.
Pilate answered: What I have written, I have written.
23 The soldiers therefore, when they had crucified him, took his garments, (and they made four parts, to every soldier a part, ) and also his coat. Now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his clothing, and made four parts, to each soldier a part; and they took his coat also. Now his coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
24 They said then one to another: Let us not cut it, but let us cast lots for it, whose it shall be; that the scripture might be fulfilled, saying: They have parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture they have cast lot. And the soldiers indeed did these things.
Then they said, one to another, let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be. This was done that the scripture might be fulfilled, which says: They divided my clothing among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. The soldiers, therefore, did these things.
25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus, his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalen.
Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Cleopas, and Mary Magdalene.
26 When Jesus therefore had seen his mother and the disciple standing whom he loved, he saith to his mother: Woman, behold thy son.
Then Jesus, seeing his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing by, said to his mother: Woman, behold your son.
27 After that, he saith to the disciple: Behold thy mother. And from that hour, the disciple took her to his own.
Then he said to the disciple: Behold your mother. And from that hour that disciple took her to his own home.
28 Afterwards, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, said: I thirst.
After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, said: I thirst.
29 Now there was a vessel set there full of vinegar. And they, putting a sponge full of vinegar and hyssop, put it to his mouth.
Now a vessel full of vinegar had been set there; and they filled a sponge with vinegar, and put it upon a hyssop-stalk, and put it to his mouth.
30 Jesus therefore, when he had taken the vinegar, said: It is consummated. And bowing his head, he gave up the ghost.
Therefore, when Jesus had received the vinegar, he said: It is finished. And he bowed his head, and gave up his spirit.
31 Then the Jews, (because it was the parasceve, ) that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath day, (for that was a great sabbath day, ) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
Then the Jews, as it was the preparation, that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath, for that sabbath-day was a great day, besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken down.
32 The soldiers therefore came; and they broke the legs of the first, and of the other that was crucified with him.
Then came the soldiers and broke the legs of the first, and of the other that was crucified with him.
33 But after they were come to Jesus, when they saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.
But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs:
34 But one of the soldiers with a spear opened his side, and immediately there came out blood and water.
but one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear; and immediately there came out blood and water.
35 And he that saw it, hath given testimony, and his testimony is true. And he knoweth that he saith true; that you also may believe.
And he that saw it has given testimony, and his testimony is true, and he knows that he speaks the truth, that you may believe;
36 For these things were done, that the scripture might be fulfilled: You shall not break a bone of him.
for these things were done that the scripture might be fulfilled: A bone of him shall not be broken.
37 And again another scripture saith: They shall look on him whom they pierced.
And again another scripture says: They shall look on him whom they pierced.
38 And after these things, Joseph of Arimathea (because he was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews) besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus. And Pilate gave leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus.
And after this, Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus. And Pilate gave him permission. He then came and took away the body of Jesus.
39 And Nicodemus also came, (he who at the first came to Jesus by night, ) bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.
Then came Nicodemus also, (who, at the first, had come to Jesus by night, ) bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds.
40 They took therefore the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen cloths, with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.
Then they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen cloths, with the spices, according to the Jewish custom of burying.
41 Now there was in the place where he was crucified, a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein no man yet had been laid.
Now, in the place where he was crucified, there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid.
42 There, therefore, because of the parasceve of the Jews, they laid Jesus, because the sepulchre was nigh at hand.
There, then, on account of the preparation-day of the Jews, they laid Jesus, for the tomb was near.
