< John 19 >

1 So Pilate then took Yeshua, and flogged him.
Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged [him].
2 The soldiers twisted thorns into a crown, and put it on his head, and dressed him in a purple garment.
And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put [it] on his head, and they put on him a purple robe,
3 And they kept coming up to him and saying, "Greetings, King of the Jews." and they struck him with their hands.
And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands.
4 Then Pilate went out again, and said to them, "Look, I am bringing him out to you, that you may know that I find no basis for a charge against him."
Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith to them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in him.
5 Then Yeshua came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. And he said to them, "Look, here is the man."
Then Jesus came forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And [Pilate] saith to them, Behold the man!
6 When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they shouted, saying, "Crucify. Crucify." Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves, and crucify him, for I find no basis for a charge against him."
When therefore the chief priests and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify [him], crucify [him]. Pilate saith to them, Take ye him, and crucify [him]: for I find no fault in him.
7 The Jewish leaders answered him, "We have a law, and by that law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God."
The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.
8 When therefore Pilate heard this saying, he was more afraid.
When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;
9 He entered into the Praetorium again, and said to Yeshua, "Where are you from?" But Yeshua gave him no answer.
And went again into the judgment-hall, and saith to Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.
10 Pilate therefore said to him, "Are you not speaking to me? Do you not know that I have power to release you, and have power to crucify you?"
Then saith Pilate to him, Speakest thou not to me? knowest thou not, that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?
11 Yeshua answered, "You would have no power at all against me, unless it were given to you from above. Therefore he who delivered me to you has greater sin."
Jesus answered, Thou couldst have no power against me; except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me to thee hath the greater sin.
12 At this, Pilate was seeking to release him, but the Jewish leaders shouted, saying, "If you release this man, you are not Caesar's friend. Everyone who makes himself a king speaks against Caesar."
And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Cesar's friend. Whoever maketh himself a king, speaketh against Cesar.
13 When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Yeshua out, and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called "The Pavement," but in Hebrew, "Gabbatha."
When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down on the judgment-seat, in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.
14 Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, at about noon. He said to the Jewish leaders, "Look, here is your King."
And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith to the Jews, Behold your King!
15 They shouted, "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 Caesar."
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 Cesar.
16 So then he delivered him to them to be crucified. So they took Yeshua.
Then therefore he delivered him to them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led [him] away.
17 And he went out, carrying the cross himself, to the place called "The Place of a Skull," which is called in Hebrew, "Gagulta,"
And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called [the place] of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew, Golgotha:
18 where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Yeshua in the middle.
Where they crucified him, and two others with him, on each side one, and Jesus in the midst.
19 Pilate wrote a title also, and put it on the cross. There was written, "YESHUA THE NATSRAYA, THE KING OF THE JEWS."
And Pilate wrote a title, and put [it] on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.
20 Therefore many Jews read this title, for the place where Yeshua was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.
Many of the Jews then read this title: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, [and] Latin.
21 The chief priests of the Jewish people therefore said to Pilate, "Do not write, 'The King of the Jews,' but, 'he said, I am King of the Jews.'"
Then said the chief priests of the Jews 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 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Yeshua, took his clothes and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also [his] coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
24 Then they said to one another, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to decide whose it will be," that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which says, "They divided my clothes among themselves, and for my clothing they cast a lot." Therefore the soldiers did these things.
They said therefore among themselves, 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 raiment among them, and for my vesture they cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.
25 But there were standing by the cross of Yeshua his mother, and his mother's sister, Maryam the wife of Qalyopa, and Maryam Magdelaitha.
Now there stood by the cross of Jesus, his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the [wife] of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.
26 Therefore when Yeshua saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing there, he said to his mother, "Woman, look, your son."
When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith to his mother, Woman, behold thy son!
27 Then he said to the disciple, "Look, your mother." From that hour, the disciple took her to his own home.
Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her to his own [home].
28 After this, Yeshua, knowing that all things were now finished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, "I am thirsty."
After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.
29 A vessel full of sour wine was set there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop, and held it at his mouth.
Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put [it] upon hyssop, and put [it] to his mouth.
30 When Yeshua therefore had received the vinegar, he said, "It is finished." He bowed his head, and gave up his spirit.
When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and expired.
31 Therefore the Jewish leaders, because it was the Preparation Day, so that the bodies would not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath, (for that sabbath was a great day, ) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and [that] they might be taken away.
32 Therefore the soldiers came, and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who was crucified with him;
Then came the soldiers, and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who was crucified with him.
33 but when they came to Yeshua, and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.
But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they broke not his legs:
34 However one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.
But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came out blood and water.
35 He who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, that you may believe.
And he that saw [it], testified, and his testimony is true: and he knoweth that he speaketh truth, that ye may believe.
36 For these things happened, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, "A bone of him will not be broken."
For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.
37 Again another Scripture says, "They will look on him whom they pierced."
And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.
38 After these things, Yauseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Yeshua, but secretly for fear of the Jewish leaders, asked of Pilate that he might take away the body of Yeshua. Pilate gave him permission. He came therefore and took away his body.
And after this, Joseph of Arimathea (being 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] leave. He came therefore and took the body of Jesus.
39 Niqadimus, who at first came to Yeshua by night, also came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds.
And there came also Nicodemus (who at the first came to Jesus by night) and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pound [weight].
40 So they took the body of Yeshua, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, according to Jewish burial practice.
Then they took the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen cloths, with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.
41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden. In the garden was a new tomb in which no one had ever yet been placed.
Now in the place where he was crucified, there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulcher, in which was never man yet laid.
42 Then because of the Jewish Preparation Day (for the tomb was nearby) they put Yeshua there.
There they laid Jesus therefore, because of the Jews' preparation -[day], for the sepulcher was nigh at hand.
