John 19
1 Then, therefore, Pilate took Jesus and scourged [Him],
Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.
2 and the soldiers having plaited a garland of thorns, placed [it] on His head, and they cast a purple garment around Him,
And the soldiers plaited a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and arrayed him in a purple garment;
3 and said, “Hail! The King of the Jews”; and they were giving Him slaps.
and they came unto him, and said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they struck him with their hands.
4 Pilate, therefore, again went forth outside and says to them, “Behold, I bring Him to you outside, that you may know that I find no fault in Him”;
And Pilate went out again, and saith unto them, Behold, I bring him out to you, that ye may know that I find no crime in him.
5 Jesus, therefore, came forth outside, bearing the thorny garland and the purple garment; and he says to them, “Behold, the Man!”
Jesus therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. And [Pilate] saith unto them, Behold, the man!
6 When, therefore, the chief priests and the officers saw Him, they cried out, saying, “Crucify! Crucify!” Pilate says to them, “Take Him yourselves and crucify, for I find no fault in Him”;
When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify [him], crucify [him]. Pilate saith unto them, Take him yourselves, and crucify him: for I find no crime in him.
7 the Jews answered him, “We have a law, and according to our law He ought to die, for He made Himself Son of God.”
The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by that law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.
8 When, therefore, Pilate heard this word, he was more afraid,
When Pilate therefore heard this saying, he was the more afraid;
9 and entered again into the Praetorium and says to Jesus, “Where are You from?” And Jesus gave him no answer.
and he entered into the palace again, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.
10 Pilate, therefore, says to Him, “Do You not speak to me? Have You not known that I have authority to crucify You, and I have authority to release You?”
Pilate therefore saith unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to release thee, and have power to crucify thee?
11 Jesus answered, “You would have no authority against Me if it were not having been given you from above; because of this, he who is delivering Me up to you has greater sin.”
Jesus answered him, Thou wouldest have no power against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath greater sin.
12 From this [time] Pilate was seeking to release Him, and the Jews were crying out, saying, “If you may release this One, you are not a friend of Caesar; everyone making himself a king speaks against Caesar.”
Upon this Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou release this man, thou art not Caesar’s friend: every one that maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.
13 Pilate, therefore, having heard this word, brought Jesus outside—and he sat down on the judgment seat—to a place called, “Pavement,” and in Hebrew, Gabbatha;
When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Jesus out, and sat down on the judgment-seat at a place called The Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha.
14 and it was the Preparation of the Passover, and as it were the sixth hour, and he says to the Jews, “Behold, your King!”
Now it was the Preparation of the passover: it was about the sixth hour. And he saith unto the Jews, Behold, your King!
15 And they cried out, “Take away! Take away! Crucify Him!” Pilate says to them, “Will I crucify your King?” The chief priests answered, “We have no king except Caesar.”
They therefore cried out, Away with [him], away with [him], crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.
16 Then, therefore, he delivered Him up to them, that He may be crucified, and they took Jesus and led [Him] away,
Then therefore he delivered him unto them to be crucified.
17 and carrying His cross, He went forth to the [place] called “Place of [the] Skull,” which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha—
They took Jesus therefore: and he went out, bearing the cross for himself, unto the place called The place of a skull, which is called in Hebrew Golgotha:
18 where they crucified Him, and with Him two others, on this side and on that side, but Jesus in the middle.
where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.
19 And Pilate also wrote a title, and put [it] on the cross, and it was written: “JESUS THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS”;
And Pilate wrote a title also, and put it on the cross. And there was written, JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
20 therefore many of the Jews read this title, because the place was near to the city where Jesus was crucified, and it was having been written in Hebrew, in Greek, in Latin.
This title therefore read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, [and] in Latin, [and] in Greek.
21 The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, “Do not write, The King of the Jews, but that this One said, I am King of the Jews”;
The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but, that he said, I am 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 crucified Jesus, took His garments, and made four parts, to each soldier a part, also the coat, and the coat was seamless, from the top woven throughout;
The soldiers therefore, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also the coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
24 they said, therefore, to one another, “We may not tear it, but cast a lot for it, whose it will be”; that the Writing might be fulfilled, that is saying, “They divided My garments to themselves, and they cast a lot for My clothing”; the soldiers, therefore, indeed, did these things.
They said therefore one to another, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my garments among them, And upon my vesture did they cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.
25 And there stood by the cross of Jesus His mother, and His mother’s sister, Mary of Cleopas, and Mary the Magdalene;
But there were standing by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the [wife] of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.
26 Jesus, therefore, having seen [His] mother, and the disciple standing by, whom He was loving, He says to His mother, “Woman, behold, your son”;
When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold, thy son!
27 afterward He says to the disciple, “Behold, your mother”; and from that hour the disciple took her to his own [home].
Then saith he to the disciple, Behold, thy mother! And from that hour the disciple took her unto his own [home].
28 After this, Jesus knowing that all things have now been accomplished, that the Writing may be fulfilled, says, “I thirst”;
After this Jesus, knowing that all things are now finished, that the scripture might be accomplished, saith, I thirst.
29 a vessel, therefore, was placed full of vinegar, and having filled a sponge with vinegar, and having put [it] around a hyssop stalk, they put [it] to His mouth;
There was set there a vessel full of vinegar: so they put a sponge full of the vinegar upon hyssop, and brought it to his mouth.
30 when, therefore, Jesus received the vinegar, He said, “It has been accomplished.” And having bowed the head, gave up the spirit.
When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up his spirit.
31 The Jews, therefore, that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the Sabbath, since it was the Preparation (for that Sabbath day was a great one), asked of Pilate that their legs may be broken, and they [are] taken away.
The Jews therefore, because it was the Preparation, that the bodies should not remain on the cross upon the sabbath (for the day of that sabbath was a high [day]), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken, and [that] they might be taken away.
32 The soldiers, therefore, came, and they indeed broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with Him,
The soldiers therefore came, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him:
33 and having come to Jesus, when they saw Him already having been dead, they did not break His legs;
but when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:
34 but one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately there came forth blood and water;
howbeit one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and straightway there came out blood and water.
35 and he who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true, and that one has known that he speaks true things, that you also may believe.
And he that hath seen hath borne witness, and his witness is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye also may believe.
36 For these things came to pass, that the Writing may be fulfilled, “A bone of Him will not be broken”;
For these things came to pass, that the scripture might be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.
37 and again another Writing says, “They will look to Him whom they pierced.”
And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.
38 And after these things, Joseph of Arimathea—being a disciple of Jesus, but concealed, through the fear of the Jews—asked of Pilate, that he may take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave leave; he came, therefore, and took away the body of Jesus,
And after these things Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked of Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave [him] leave. He came therefore, and took away his body.
39 and Nicodemus also came—who came to Jesus by night at the first—carrying a mixture of myrrh and aloes, as it were, one hundred pounds.
And there came also Nicodemus, he who at the first came to him by night, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds [weight].
40 Therefore they took the body of Jesus, and bound it with linen clothes with the spices, according as it was the custom of the Jews to prepare for burial;
So they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury.
41 and there was a garden in the place where He was crucified, and a new tomb in the garden, in which no one was yet laid;
Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new tomb wherein was never man yet laid.
42 therefore, because the tomb was near, there they laid Jesus because of the Preparation of the Jews.
There then because of the Jews’ Preparation (for the tomb was nigh at hand) they laid Jesus.
