John 19
1 Then Pilate took Jesus and whipped him.
Then Pilate, therefore, took Jesus and scourged him.
2 The soldiers weaved a crown of thorns. They put it on the head of Jesus and dressed him with 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 They came to him and said, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and they struck him.
and said: Hail, King of the Jews. And they struck him with their open hands.
4 Then Pilate went outside again and said to them, “See, I am bringing him outside to you so that you will know that I find no guilt 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 So Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. Pilate said to them, “Look, here is 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 therefore the chief priests and the officers saw Jesus, they cried out and said, “Crucify him, crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Take him yourselves and crucify him, for I find no guilt 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 that law he has to die because he claimed to be 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 heard this statement, he was even more afraid,
Then, when Pilate heard this word, he was the more afraid;
9 and he entered the government headquarters again and said to Jesus, “Where do you come from?” 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 Then Pilate said to him, “Are you not speaking to me? Do you not know that I have power to release you, and power to crucify you?”
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 him, “You do not have any power over me except for what has been given to you from above. Therefore, he who gave me over to you has a 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 At this answer, Pilate tried to release him, but the Jews cried out, saying, “If you release this man, you are not a friend of Caesar. Everyone who makes himself a king speaks 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 When Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat down in the judgment seat in a place called “The Pavement,” but 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 Now it was the day of preparation for the Passover, at about the sixth hour. Pilate said to the Jews, “See, here is your king!”
it was the preparation for the passover, and about the third hour; and he said to the Jews, Behold your king!
15 They cried out, “Away with him, away with him; crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Should 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 Pilate gave Jesus over to them to be crucified.
Then he, therefore, delivered him to them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.
17 Then they took Jesus, and he went out, carrying the cross for himself, to the place called “The Place of a Skull,” which in Hebrew is called “Golgotha.”
And, bearing his cross, he went forth into a place called the Place of a Skull, which is called, in Hebrew, Golgotha,
18 They crucified Jesus there, and with him two other men, one on each side, with Jesus in the middle.
where they crucified him, and with him two others, one on each side, and Jesus in the middle.
19 Pilate also wrote a sign and put it on the cross. There it was written: 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 Many of the Jews read this sign because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city. The sign was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.
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, “Do not write, 'The King of the Jews,' but rather, 'This one said, “I am 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 When the soldiers crucified Jesus, they took his clothes, divided them into four shares, one for each of them; and also the tunic. Now the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece from the top.
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 Then they said to each other, “Let us not tear it, but instead let us cast lots for it to decide whose it will be.” This happened so that the scripture would be fulfilled which said, “They divided my garments among themselves and cast lots for my clothing.” This is what the soldiers did.
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 standing beside Jesus' cross were his mother, his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.
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 saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to his mother, “Woman, see, your son!”
Then Jesus, seeing his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing by, said to his mother: Woman, behold your son.
27 Then he said to the disciple, “See, your mother!” From that hour the disciple took her to his own home.
Then he said to the disciple: Behold your mother. And from that hour that disciple took her to his own home.
28 After this, knowing that everything was now completed and so that the scriptures would be fulfilled, Jesus said, “I am thirsty.”
After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, said: I thirst.
29 A container full of sour wine was placed there, so they put a sponge full of the sour wine on a hyssop staff and lifted it up 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 When Jesus had taken the sour wine, he said, “It is finished.” He bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
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 day of preparation, and so that the bodies would not remain on the cross during the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was especially important), asked Pilate to break their legs and to remove them.
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 Then the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man and of the second man who had been crucified with Jesus.
Then came the soldiers and broke the legs of the first, and of the other that was crucified with him.
33 When they came to Jesus, they saw that he was already dead, so 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 However, one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.
but one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear; and immediately there came out blood and water.
35 The one who saw this has testified, and his testimony is true. He knows that what he said is true so that you would also 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 happened in order to fulfill scripture, “Not one of his bones will be broken.”
for these things were done that the scripture might be fulfilled: A bone of him shall not be broken.
37 Again, another scripture says, “They will look at him whom they pierced.”
And again another scripture says: They shall look on him whom they pierced.
38 After these things, Joseph of Arimathea, since he was a disciple of Jesus (but secretly for fear of the Jews), asked Pilate if he could take away the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission. So Joseph came and took away his body.
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 Nicodemus also came, he who at first had come to Jesus by night. He brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about one hundred litras in 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 So they took the body of Jesus and wrapped it in linen cloths with the spices, as was the custom of the Jews to bury bodies.
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 in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden was a new tomb in which no person had yet been buried.
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 Because it was the day of preparation for the Jews and because the tomb was close by, they laid Jesus in it.
There, then, on account of the preparation-day of the Jews, they laid Jesus, for the tomb was near.
