027:002
And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered
him to Pontius Pilate the governor
027:003
Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was
condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty
pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders
027:004
Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent
blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that
027:005
And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and
departed, and went and hanged himself
027:006
And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is
not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is
the price of blood
027:007
And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's
field, to bury strangers in
027:008
Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this
day
027:009
Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the
prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver,
the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of
Israel did value
027:010
And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed
me
027:011
And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked
him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said
unto him, Thou sayest
027:012
And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he
answered nothing
027:013
Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things
they witness against thee
027:014
And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the
governor marvelled greatly
027:015
Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the
people a prisoner, whom they would
027:016
And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas
027:017
Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto
them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus
which is called Christ
027:018
For he knew that for envy they had delivered him
027:019
When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto
him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I
have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him
027:020
But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that
they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus
027:021
The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain
will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas
027:022
Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which
is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified
027:023
And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they
cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified
027:024
When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather
a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before
the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just
person: see ye to it
027:025
Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us,
and on our children
027:026
Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged
Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified
027:027
Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common
hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers
027:028
And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe
027:029
And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon
his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the
knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the
Jews
027:030
And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on
the head
027:031
And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off
from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to
crucify him
027:032
And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by
name: him they compelled to bear his cross
027:033
And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is
to say, a place of a skull
027:034
They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he
had tasted thereof, he would not drink
027:035
And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots:
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet,
They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did
they cast lots
027:036
And sitting down they watched him there
027:037
And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS
THE KING OF THE JEWS
027:038
Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the
right hand, and another on the left
027:039
And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads
027:040
And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it
in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come
down from the cross
027:041
Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes
and elders, said
027:042
He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of
Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will
believe him
027:043
He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have
him: for he said, I am the Son of God
027:044
The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same
in his teeth
027:045
Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land
unto the ninth hour
027:046
And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice,
saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my
God, why hast thou forsaken me
027:047
Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said,
This man calleth for Elias
027:048
And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled
it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink
027:049
The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to
save him
027:050
Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up
the ghost
027:051
And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the
top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks
rent
027:052
And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints
which slept arose
027:053
And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went
into the holy city, and appeared unto many
027:054
Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching
Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done,
they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God
027:055
And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed
Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him
027:056
Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James
and Joses, and the mother of Zebedees children
027:057
When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea,
named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple
027:058
He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate
commanded the body to be delivered
027:059
And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean
linen cloth
027:060
And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the
rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the
sepulchre, and departed
027:061
And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over
against the sepulchre
027:062
Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation,
the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate
027:063
Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was
yet alive, After three days I will rise again
027:064
Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the
third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him
away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so
the last error shall be worse than the first
027:065
Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it
as sure as ye can
027:066
So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone,
and setting a watch
