< Mark 15 >

1 Very early in the morning the chief priests met together with [the rest of] the Jewish council, [in order to decide how to accuse Jesus before the Roman governor. Their guards] tied Jesus’ hands [again]. They took him to [the house of] Pilate, [the governor, and they started to accuse him, saying] “[Jesus is claiming that he is a king!]!”
І зараз уранці, порадившись архнєреї з старшими та письменниками, і вся рада, звязавши Ісуса, повели та й видали Пилатові.
2 Pilate asked Jesus, “Do you [claim to be] the king of the Jews?” Jesus answered him, “You yourself have said so.”
І спитав Його Пилат: Чи ти єси цар Жидівський? Він же озвавшись, рече йому: Ти кажеш.
3 Then the chief priests claimed that Jesus had done many bad things.
І винуватили Його архиєреї багато.
4 So Pilate asked him again, “Don’t you have anything to say? Listen to how many bad things they are saying that you [have done]!”
Пилат же знов спитав Його, кажучи: Не відказуєш нїчого? Он, скільки на Тебе сьвідкують;
5 But [even though Jesus was not guilty], he did not say anything more. The result was that Pilate was very much surprised.
Ісус же більш нічого не відказав, так що дивував ся Пилат.
6 It was the governor’s custom [each year] during the [Passover] celebration to release [one person who was in prison. He customarily released] whichever prisoner the people requested.
На сьвято ж відпускав він їм одного вязника, про которого просили.
7 [At that time] there was a man called Barabbas who had been {whom [the soldiers had]} [put in prison with some other men]. Those men had murdered [some soldiers] when they rebelled [against the Roman government].
Був же названий Варава з своїми затязцями увязнений, котрі під бунт убийство зробили.
8 A crowd approached [Pilate] and asked him [to release someone], just like he customarily did for them [during the Passover celebration].
І гукаючи народ, почав просити, щоб, як щоразу, зробив їм.
9 Pilate answered them, “Would you like me to release for you the [man whom you] Jewish [people say is your] king?”
Пилат же відказав їм, говорячи: Чи хочете, щоб випустив вам царя Жидівського?
10 [He asked this] because he realized what the chief priests were wanting to do. They were accusing Jesus because they were jealous of him [because many people were becoming his disciples].
Знав бо, що через зависть видали Його архиєреї.
11 But the chief priests urged the crowd [to request] that Pilate release Barabbas for them instead [of Jesus].
Архиєреї ж напустили народ, щоб лучче Вараву відпустив їм.
12 Pilate said to them again, “[If I release Barabbas], what do you want me to do with the man whom [some of] you Jews say is [your] king?”
Пилат же, озвавшись ізнов, сказав їм: Що ж оце хочете, щоб зробив із тим, кого звете царем Жидівським?
13 Then they shouted again, “[Command that your soldiers] crucify him!”
Вони ж знов закричали: Розпни Його,
14 Then Pilate said to them, “Why? What crime has he committed?” But they shouted even louder, “[Command your soldiers to] crucify him!”
Пилат же каже їм: Яке ж бо зло зробив? Вони ж ще гірш кричали: Розпни Його.
15 So, because Pilate wanted to please the crowd, he released Barabbas for them. Then, after [his soldiers] had whipped Jesus with leather straps into which they had fastened metal pieces, [Pilate told the soldiers to take him away] in order that he would be crucified {they would crucify him}.
Пилат же, хотівши народові догодити, відпустив їм Вараву, й передав Ісуса, побивши, щоб рознято Його.
16 The soldiers took Jesus into the [courtyard of the] palace [where Pilate lived]. That place was the government headquarters. Then they summoned the whole (cohort/group of soldiers) [who were on duty there].
Воїни ж повели Його в середину двору, чи то в Претор, і скликали всю роту.
17 [After the soldiers gathered together], they put a purple robe on Jesus. Then they placed on his head a crown that they made from [branches of] thornbushes. [They did those things in order to ridicule him by pretending that he was a king].
І одягли Ного в багряницю, і положили на Него, сплівши з тернини, вінець,
18 Then they greeted him [like they would greet a king, in order to ridicule him], saying, “Hooray for the King [who rules] the Jews!”
та й почали витати Його: Радуй ся, царю Жидівський!
19 They repeatedly struck his head with a reed and spat on him. By kneeling down, they [pretended to honor] him.
І били Його по голові тростиною, і плювали на Него, й, кидаючись на колїна, кланялись Йому.
20 When they had finished ridiculing him, they pulled off the purple robe. They put his own clothes on him, and then they led him outside [of the city] in order to nail him to a cross.
І, як насьміялись із Него, роздягнули Його з багряниці, і одягнули Його в одежу Його, та й виводять Його, щоб розняти Його.
21 [After Jesus carried his cross a short distance], a man named Simon from Cyrene [city came along]. He was the father of Alexander and Rufus. He was passing by while he was returning [home] from outside [the city. The soldiers] compelled Simon to carry the cross [for Jesus].
І заставили мимойдучого якогось Симона Киринея, ідучого з поля, батька Александра та Руфа, щоб ніс хрест Його.
22 They brought them both to a place that they [call] Golgotha. That name means, ‘a place [like] a skull’.
І приводять Його на Голготу місце, що прозване Черепове місце.
23 Then they tried to give Jesus wine that was {that they} mixed with [medicine called] myrrh. [They wanted him to drink it so that he would not feel so much pain when they crucified him]. But he did not drink it.
І дали Йому пити вина з смирною; Він же не прийняв.
24 [Some] of the [soldiers took his clothes]. Then they nailed him to a cross. Afterwards, they divided his clothes among themselves by gambling with [something like] dice. They did this [in order to determine] which [piece of clothing] each one would get.
І розпинателї Його поділили одежу Його, кинувши жереб на неї, що кому впаде.
25 It was nine o’clock in the morning when they crucified him.
Була ж година третя, і розняли Його.
26 They [attached to the cross above Jesus’ head] a sign on which it had been written {someone had written} the reason why [they were nailing him to the cross]. [But all] that it said was, “The King of the Jews.”
І була надпись вини Його надписана: Цар Жидівський.
27 They also nailed to crosses two men who were bandits. They nailed one to a cross at the right side [of Jesus] and one to a cross at the left side [of Jesus].
І розняли з Ним двох розбійників, одного по правицї, а одного по лївицї в Него.
І справдилось писаннє, що глаголе: І з беззаконними полічено Його.
29 The people who were passing by insulted him by shaking their heads as [if here were an evil man]. They said, “Aha! You said that you would destroy the Temple and then you would build it again within three days.
І мимоходячі хулили Його, киваючи головами своїми та говорячи: Овва! Ти, що руйнуєш церкву і в три днї будуєш,
30 [If you could do that, then] rescue yourself by coming down from the cross!”
спаси себе й зійди з хреста.
31 The chief priests, along with the men who taught the [Jewish] laws, also [wanted to] make fun of Jesus. So they said to each other, “He [claims to have] saved others [from their sicknesses] [IRO] but he cannot save himself!
Так само й архиєреї, насьміхаючись один до одного з письменниками, казали: Інших спасав, себе не може спасти.
32 He said, ‘I am the Messiah, I am the King who [rules the people of] Israel.’ [If his words are true], he should come down now from the cross! Then we will believe [him]!” The [two] men who were crucified beside him also insulted him.
Христос, цар Жидівський, нехай зійде тепер з хреста, щоб побачили ми, й ввіруємо. І розпяті з Ним зневажали Його.
33 At noon the whole land became dark, [and it stayed dark] until three o’clock in the afternoon.
Як же настала година шоста, темрява стала по всїй землі аж до години девятої.
34 At three o’clock Jesus shouted loudly, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” That means, “My God, my God, why have you deserted me?”
А години девятої покликнув Ісус голосом великим: Елоі, Елоі, лама саватани? що єсть перекладом: Боже мій, Боже мій, на що мене покинув єси?
35 When some of the people who were standing there heard [the word ‘Eloi’, misunderstanding it], they said, “Listen! He is calling for [the prophet] Elijah!”
І деякі з тих, що тут стояли, почувши казали: Ось Ілию кличе.
36 One of them ran and filled a sponge with sour wine. He placed it on [the tip of] a reed, and then he [held it] up for [Jesus] to suck out [the wine that was in] it. [While he was doing that, someone] said, “Wait! Let’s see whether Elijah will come to take him down [from the cross]!”
Побігши ж один, і сповнивши губку оцтом і настромивши на тростину, поїв Його, кажучи: Стривайте, побачимо, чи прийде Ілия знята Його.
37 And then, after Jesus shouted loudly, he stopped breathing [and died].
Ісус же, пустивши голос великий, зітхнув.
38 [At that moment] the [heavy thick] curtain that closed off [the most holy place in] the Temple split into two pieces from top to bottom. [That showed that ordinary people could now go into the presence of God].
І завіса церковня роздерлась надвоє з верху аж до низу.
39 The officer who supervised the soldiers [who nailed Jesus to the cross] was standing in front of Jesus. When he saw how Jesus died, he exclaimed, “Truly, this man was the man who was also God!”
Бачивши ж сотник, що там стояв проти Него, що, так закричавши зітхнув, каже: Справді чоловік сей Син був Божий.
40 There were also some women there, watching these events from a distance. They had accompanied Jesus when he was in Galilee [district], and they had provided what he needed. They had come with him to Jerusalem. Among those women was Mary from Magdala [town]. There was [another] Mary, who was the mother of the younger James and of Joses. There was also Salome.
Були ж і жінки, оддалеки дивлячись, між котрими була й Мария Магдалина, й Мария, Якова меншого та Йосиї мати, й Саломия,
що, й як був у Галилеї, ходили слїдом за Ним, і послугували Йому, і инших багато, що поприходили з Ним у Єрусалим.
42 When evening was near, [a man named] Joseph from Arimathea [town came there]. He was a member of the [Jewish] council, one whom everyone respected. He was also one of those who had been waiting expectantly for the [time when] God [would send] his king to begin to rule. [He knew that, according to Jewish law, people’s bodies had to be buried] {[someone had to bury people’s bodies]} [on the day they died. He also realized that] it was the day when [people] prepared [things for] ([the Jewish day of rest/the Sabbath]), [and that the Sabbath would start when the sun set]. So he became courageous and went to Pilate and asked Pilate [to permit him to take] the body of Jesus [down from the cross and bury it immediately].
А як уже настав вечір, бо була пятниця, чи то перед суботою,
прийшов Иосиф з Ариматеї, поважний радник, що також сподївавсь царства Божого, й зосьмілившись, увійшов до Пилата й просив тіла Ісусового.
44 Pilate was surprised [when he heard that] Jesus was already dead. So he summoned the officer who was in charge of the soldiers [who crucified Jesus], and he asked him if [Jesus] had already died.
Пилат же дивувавсь, що вже вмер би; й покликавши сотника, спитав його, чи давно вмер.
45 When the officer told [Pilate that Jesus was dead], Pilate allowed Joseph [to take away] the body.
А довідавшись од сотника, дав тіло Йосифові,
46 After Joseph bought a linen cloth, he [and others] took [Jesus’ body down from the cross]. They wrapped it in the linen cloth and laid it in a tomb that [previously] had been dug out of the rock [cliff]. Then they rolled a [huge flat] stone in front of the entrance to the tomb.
і, купивши плащеницю і знявши Його, обгорнув Його плащеницею, та й положив Його у гробі, що був висічений із скелї, та й прикотив каменя до дверей гробу.
47 Mary [from] Magdala and Mary the mother of Joses were watching where Jesus’ [body] was placed {where they placed Jesus’ [body]}.
Мария ж Магдалина й Мария Иосиїна дивились, де Його положено.
