Matthew 27
1 NOW when the morning came, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus how they might put him to death.
πρωιας δε γενομενης συμβουλιον ελαβον παντες οι αρχιερεις και οι πρεσβυτεροι του λαου κατα του ιησου ωστε θανατωσαι αυτον
2 And having bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
και δησαντες αυτον απηγαγον και παρεδωκαν αυτον ποντιω πιλατω τω ηγεμονι
3 Then Judas who betrayed him, seeing that he was condemned, repenting, carried back the thirty silver pieces to the chief priests and the elders,
τοτε ιδων ιουδας ο παραδιδους αυτον οτι κατεκριθη μεταμεληθεις απεστρεψεν τα τριακοντα αργυρια τοις αρχιερευσιν και τοις πρεσβυτεροις
4 saying, I have sinned, in betraying innocent blood. But they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.
λεγων ημαρτον παραδους αιμα αθωον οι δε ειπον τι προς ημας συ οψει
5 And throwing down the silver pieces in the temple, he departed; and going out, hanged himself.
και ριψας τα αργυρια εν τω ναω ανεχωρησεν και απελθων απηγξατο
6 Then the chief priests taking up the silver pieces, said, It is not lawful to put them to the treasure destined for sacred uses, because it is the price of blood.
οι δε αρχιερεις λαβοντες τα αργυρια ειπον ουκ εξεστιν βαλειν αυτα εις τον κορβαναν επει τιμη αιματος εστιν
7 So taking counsel, they bought with them a potter’s field, as a burial-place for strangers.
συμβουλιον δε λαβοντες ηγορασαν εξ αυτων τον αγρον του κεραμεως εις ταφην τοις ξενοις
8 Therefore is that field called, The field of blood unto this day.
διο εκληθη ο αγρος εκεινος αγρος αιματος εως της σημερον
9 Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty silver pieces, the price of him who had been estimated at that rate, whom they of the children of Israel did value:
τοτε επληρωθη το ρηθεν δια ιερεμιου του προφητου λεγοντος και ελαβον τα τριακοντα αργυρια την τιμην του τετιμημενου ον ετιμησαντο απο υιων ισραηλ
10 and gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord had ordered me.
και εδωκαν αυτα εις τον αγρον του κεραμεως καθα συνεταξεν μοι κυριος
11 Then was Jesus placed before the governor, and the governor interrogated him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? Then Jesus replied to him, Thou sayest true.
ο δε ιησους εστη εμπροσθεν του ηγεμονος και επηρωτησεν αυτον ο ηγεμων λεγων συ ει ο βασιλευς των ιουδαιων ο δε ιησους εφη αυτω συ λεγεις
12 And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he made no reply.
και εν τω κατηγορεισθαι αυτον υπο των αρχιερεων και των πρεσβυτερων ουδεν απεκρινατο
13 Then saith Pilate to him, Hearest thou not how many things they testify against thee?
τοτε λεγει αυτω ο πιλατος ουκ ακουεις ποσα σου καταμαρτυρουσιν
14 And he made him no reply, no not to a single word: so that the governor marvelled exceedingly.
και ουκ απεκριθη αυτω προς ουδε εν ρημα ωστε θαυμαζειν τον ηγεμονα λιαν
15 Now at the feast, the governor had been accustomed to release one prisoner to the people, whomsoever they chose.
κατα δε εορτην ειωθει ο ηγεμων απολυειν ενα τω οχλω δεσμιον ον ηθελον
16 And they had at that time a notorious prisoner, called Barabbas.
ειχον δε τοτε δεσμιον επισημον λεγομενον βαραββαν
17 Being therefore gathered around him, Pilate said to them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus called Messiah?
συνηγμενων ουν αυτων ειπεν αυτοις ο πιλατος τινα θελετε απολυσω υμιν βαραββαν η ιησουν τον λεγομενον χριστον
18 For he knew that out of envy they had delivered him up.
ηδει γαρ οτι δια φθονον παρεδωκαν αυτον
19 Then, as he was sitting on the tribunal, his wife sent a message to him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that righteous person; for I have suffered much to-day in a dream on his account.
καθημενου δε αυτου επι του βηματος απεστειλεν προς αυτον η γυνη αυτου λεγουσα μηδεν σοι και τω δικαιω εκεινω πολλα γαρ επαθον σημερον κατ οναρ δι αυτον
20 But the chief priests and elders persuaded the populace that they should ask for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
οι δε αρχιερεις και οι πρεσβυτεροι επεισαν τους οχλους ινα αιτησωνται τον βαραββαν τον δε ιησουν απολεσωσιν
21 The governor repeating the question, said to them, Which of the two will ye that I release unto you? They said Barabbas.
αποκριθεις δε ο ηγεμων ειπεν αυτοις τινα θελετε απο των δυο απολυσω υμιν οι δε ειπον βαραββαν
22 Pilate saith unto them, What then shall I do with Jesus, who is called the Messiah? They all say to him, Let him be crucified.
λεγει αυτοις ο πιλατος τι ουν ποιησω ιησουν τον λεγομενον χριστον λεγουσιν αυτω παντες σταυρωθητω
23 The governor replied, But what evil hath he done? They cried out with greater vehemence, saying, Let him be crucified.
ο δε ηγεμων εφη τι γαρ κακον εποιησεν οι δε περισσως εκραζον λεγοντες σταυρωθητω
24 When Pilate saw that it was of no use to contend, but that rather a tumult was rising, he took water, and washed his hands before the people, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man: ye must answer for it.
ιδων δε ο πιλατος οτι ουδεν ωφελει αλλα μαλλον θορυβος γινεται λαβων υδωρ απενιψατο τας χειρας απεναντι του οχλου λεγων αθωος ειμι απο του αιματος του δικαιου τουτου υμεις οψεσθε
25 Then all the people answering said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
και αποκριθεις πας ο λαος ειπεν το αιμα αυτου εφ ημας και επι τα τεκνα ημων
26 Then he released unto them Barabbas: but having scourged Jesus, he delivered him up to be crucified.
τοτε απελυσεν αυτοις τον βαραββαν τον δε ιησουν φραγελλωσας παρεδωκεν ινα σταυρωθη
27 Thereupon the soldiers of the governor taking Jesus away to the Praetorium, gathered around him the whole band:
τοτε οι στρατιωται του ηγεμονος παραλαβοντες τον ιησουν εις το πραιτωριον συνηγαγον επ αυτον ολην την σπειραν
28 and stripping him, put about him a scarlet cloak.
και εκδυσαντες αυτον περιεθηκαν αυτω χλαμυδα κοκκινην
29 And platting a crown of thorns, they placed it on his head, and a cane in his right hand: and bowing the knee before him, mocked him, saying, Hail, king of the Jews!
και πλεξαντες στεφανον εξ ακανθων επεθηκαν επι την κεφαλην αυτου και καλαμον επι την δεξιαν αυτου και γονυπετησαντες εμπροσθεν αυτου ενεπαιζον αυτω λεγοντες χαιρε ο βασιλευς των ιουδαιων
30 And spitting upon him, they took the cane, and struck him upon his head.
και εμπτυσαντες εις αυτον ελαβον τον καλαμον και ετυπτον εις την κεφαλην αυτου
31 And when they had insulted him, they took off from him the cloak, and put his own garments on him, and led him away to crucify him.
και οτε ενεπαιξαν αυτω εξεδυσαν αυτον την χλαμυδα και ενεδυσαν αυτον τα ιματια αυτου και απηγαγον αυτον εις το σταυρωσαι
32 And as they were going out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name; him they compelled to carry his cross.
εξερχομενοι δε ευρον ανθρωπον κυρηναιον ονοματι σιμωνα τουτον ηγγαρευσαν ινα αρη τον σταυρον αυτου
33 And when they were come to a place called Golgotha (which is called the place of a skull),
και ελθοντες εις τοπον λεγομενον γολγοθα ος εστιν λεγομενος κρανιου τοπος
34 they gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and having tasted it, he refused to drink.
εδωκαν αυτω πιειν οξος μετα χολης μεμιγμενον και γευσαμενος ουκ ηθελεν πιειν
35 Then having crucified him, they parted his garments, casting the lot: that it might be fulfilled, what was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and for my vesture they threw the lot.
σταυρωσαντες δε αυτον διεμερισαντο τα ιματια αυτου βαλλοντες κληρον ινα πληρωθη το ρηθεν υπο του προφητου διεμερισαντο τα ιματια μου εαυτοις και επι τον ιματισμον μου εβαλον κληρον
36 And sitting down, they guarded him there.
και καθημενοι ετηρουν αυτον εκει
37 And they placed over his head his accusation in writing, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
και επεθηκαν επανω της κεφαλης αυτου την αιτιαν αυτου γεγραμμενην ουτος εστιν ιησους ο βασιλευς των ιουδαιων
38 Then were crucified with him two robbers, one on his right hand, and the other on his left.
τοτε σταυρουνται συν αυτω δυο λησται εις εκ δεξιων και εις εξ ευωνυμων
39 And they who were passing by reviled him, shaking their heads,
οι δε παραπορευομενοι εβλασφημουν αυτον κινουντες τας κεφαλας αυτων
40 and saying, Thou that canst pull down the temple, and build it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, descend from the cross.
και λεγοντες ο καταλυων τον ναον και εν τρισιν ημεραις οικοδομων σωσον σεαυτον ει υιος ει του θεου καταβηθι απο του σταυρου
41 And with similar language also did the chief priests, insulting him, with the scribes and elders, and Pharisees,
ομοιως δε και οι αρχιερεις εμπαιζοντες μετα των γραμματεων και πρεσβυτερων ελεγον
42 say, He saved others, himself he is unable to save. If he be the King of Israel, let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe him.
αλλους εσωσεν εαυτον ου δυναται σωσαι ει βασιλευς ισραηλ εστιν καταβατω νυν απο του σταυρου και πιστευσομεν αυτω
43 He trusted in God; let him now deliver him, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.
πεποιθεν επι τον θεον ρυσασθω νυν αυτον ει θελει αυτον ειπεν γαρ οτι θεου ειμι υιος
44 And in the same manner also, did the robbers who were crucified with him, revile him.
το δ αυτο και οι λησται οι συσταυρωθεντες αυτω ωνειδιζον αυτω
45 Now from the fifth hour darkness fell upon all the land, unto the ninth hour.
απο δε εκτης ωρας σκοτος εγενετο επι πασαν την γην εως ωρας εννατης
46 But about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with an exceeding loud cry, saying, Eli! Eli! lama, sabacthani? that is, My God! my God! why hast thou forsaken me?
περι δε την εννατην ωραν ανεβοησεν ο ιησους φωνη μεγαλη λεγων ηλι ηλι λαμα σαβαχθανι τουτ εστιν θεε μου θεε μου ινα τι με εγκατελιπες
47 Then some of those who stood there, hearing him, said, This man is calling out for Elias.
τινες δε των εκει εστωτων ακουσαντες ελεγον οτι ηλιαν φωνει ουτος
48 And immediately one of them, running, and taking a sponge, and filling it with vinegar, and fastening it to a pole, put it to him to drink.
και ευθεως δραμων εις εξ αυτων και λαβων σπογγον πλησας τε οξους και περιθεις καλαμω εποτιζεν αυτον
49 The others said, Let him alone, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.
οι δε λοιποι ελεγον αφες ιδωμεν ει ερχεται ηλιας σωσων αυτον
50 Then Jesus crying again with a loud voice gave up the ghost.
ο δε ιησους παλιν κραξας φωνη μεγαλη αφηκεν το πνευμα
51 And, lo! the vail of the temple was rent in two, from the upper part to the bottom; and the earth was shaken; and the rocks were rent;
και ιδου το καταπετασμα του ναου εσχισθη εις δυο απο ανωθεν εως κατω και η γη εσεισθη και αι πετραι εσχισθησαν
52 and the sepulchres were opened; and many bodies of saints, who slept, arose;
και τα μνημεια ανεωχθησαν και πολλα σωματα των κεκοιμημενων αγιων ηγερθη
53 and coming out of the sepulchres after his resurrection, entered into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
και εξελθοντες εκ των μνημειων μετα την εγερσιν αυτου εισηλθον εις την αγιαν πολιν και ενεφανισθησαν πολλοις
54 Then the centurion, and they who were with him, guarding Jesus, when they saw the earthquake, and the things which were done, were exceedingly terrified, saying, Assuredly this was the Son of God.
ο δε εκατονταρχος και οι μετ αυτου τηρουντες τον ιησουν ιδοντες τον σεισμον και τα γενομενα εφοβηθησαν σφοδρα λεγοντες αληθως θεου υιος ην ουτος
55 Now there were many women on the spot, looking on at a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:
ησαν δε εκει γυναικες πολλαι απο μακροθεν θεωρουσαι αιτινες ηκολουθησαν τω ιησου απο της γαλιλαιας διακονουσαι αυτω
56 among whom was Mary Magdalen, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee’s children.
εν αις ην μαρια η μαγδαληνη και μαρια η του ιακωβου και ιωση μητηρ και η μητηρ των υιων ζεβεδαιου
57 But when the evening was come, there came a rich man of Arimathea, whose name was Joseph, who himself also was a disciple of Jesus:
οψιας δε γενομενης ηλθεν ανθρωπος πλουσιος απο αριμαθαιας τουνομα ιωσηφ ος και αυτος εμαθητευσεν τω ιησου
58 he going in to Pilate, begged for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered the body to be given him.
ουτος προσελθων τω πιλατω ητησατο το σωμα του ιησου τοτε ο πιλατος εκελευσεν αποδοθηναι το σωμα
59 And Joseph receiving the body, wrapped it in clean linen;
και λαβων το σωμα ο ιωσηφ ενετυλιξεν αυτο σινδονι καθαρα
60 and laid it in his own new sepulchre, which he had hewn out in a rock: and rolling a vast stone against the door of the sepulchre, departed.
και εθηκεν αυτο εν τω καινω αυτου μνημειω ο ελατομησεν εν τη πετρα και προσκυλισας λιθον μεγαν τη θυρα του μνημειου απηλθεν
61 And Mary Magdalen, and the other Mary, were there sitting opposite the sepulchre.
ην δε εκει μαρια η μαγδαληνη και η αλλη μαρια καθημεναι απεναντι του ταφου
62 Now on the morrow, which is the day after the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came in a body to Pilate,
τη δε επαυριον ητις εστιν μετα την παρασκευην συνηχθησαν οι αρχιερεις και οι φαρισαιοι προς πιλατον
63 saying, Sir, we have reflected, that this deceiver, when yet alive, said, After three days I will rise again.
λεγοντες κυριε εμνησθημεν οτι εκεινος ο πλανος ειπεν ετι ζων μετα τρεις ημερας εγειρομαι
64 Command therefore that the sepulchre be made perfectly secure until the third day, lest his disciples coming by night, steal him, and say to the people, He is risen from the dead, so the last delusion would be worse than the first.
κελευσον ουν ασφαλισθηναι τον ταφον εως της τριτης ημερας μηποτε ελθοντες οι μαθηται αυτου νυκτος κλεψωσιν αυτον και ειπωσιν τω λαω ηγερθη απο των νεκρων και εσται η εσχατη πλανη χειρων της πρωτης
65 Then said Pilate unto them, Ye have a guard, go and make it as secure as ye think fit.
εφη δε αυτοις ο πιλατος εχετε κουστωδιαν υπαγετε ασφαλισασθε ως οιδατε
66 So they went and made the sepulchre secure, putting a seal upon the stone, after placing the guard.
οι δε πορευθεντες ησφαλισαντο τον ταφον σφραγισαντες τον λιθον μετα της κουστωδιας
