^{1 Ref} Then, therefore, did Pilate take Jesus and scourge `him',

^{2 Ref} and the soldiers having plaited a crown of thorns, did place `it' on his head, and a purple garment they put around him,

^{3 Ref} and said, `Hail! the king of the Jews;' and they were giving him slaps.

^{4 Ref} Pilate, therefore, again went forth without, and saith to them, `Lo, I do bring him to you without, that ye may know that in him I find no fault;'

^{5 Ref} Jesus, therefore, came forth without, bearing the thorny crown and the purple garment; and he saith to them, `Lo, the man!'

^{6 Ref} When, therefore, the chief priests and the officers did see him, they cried out, saying, `Crucify, crucify;' Pilate saith to them, `Take ye him -- ye, and crucify; for I find no fault in him;'

^{7 Ref} the Jews answered him, `We have a law, and according to our law he ought to die, for he made himself Son of God.'

^{8 Ref} When, therefore, Pilate heard this word, he was the more afraid,

^{9 Ref} and entered again to the praetorium, and saith to Jesus, `Whence art thou?' and Jesus gave him no answer.

^{10 Ref} Pilate, therefore, saith to him, `To me dost thou not speak? hast thou not known that I have authority to crucify thee, and I have authority to release thee?'

^{11 Ref} Jesus answered, `Thou wouldst have no authority against me, if it were not having been given thee from above; because of this, he who is delivering me up to thee hath greater sin.'

^{12 Ref} From this `time' was Pilate seeking to release him, and the Jews were crying out, saying, `If this one thou mayest release, thou art not a friend of Caesar; every one making himself a king, doth speak against Caesar.'

^{13 Ref} Pilate, therefore, having heard this word, brought Jesus without -- and he sat down upon the tribunal -- to a place called, `Pavement,' and in Hebrew, Gabbatha;

^{14 Ref} and it was the preparation of the passover, and as it were the sixth hour, and he saith to the Jews, `Lo, your king!'

^{15 Ref} and they cried out, `Take away, take away, crucify him;' Pilate saith to them, `Your king shall I crucify?' the chief priests answered, `We have no king except Caesar.'

^{16 Ref} Then, therefore, he delivered him up to them, that he may be crucified, and they took Jesus and led `him' away,

^{17 Ref} and bearing his cross, he went forth to the place called `Place' of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew Golgotha;

^{18 Ref} where they crucified him, and with him two others, on this side, and on that side, and Jesus in the midst.

^{19 Ref} And Pilate also wrote a title, and put `it' on the cross, and it was written, `Jesus the Nazarene, the king of the Jews;'

^{20 Ref} this title, therefore, read many of the Jews, because the place was nigh to the city where Jesus was crucified, and it was having been written in Hebrew, in Greek, in Roman.

^{21 Ref} The chief priests of the Jews said, therefore, to Pilate, `Write not -- The king of the Jews, but that one said, I am king of the Jews;'

^{22 Ref} Pilate answered, `What I have written, I have written.'

^{23 Ref} The soldiers, therefore, when they did crucify 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,

^{24 Ref} they said, therefore, to one another, `We may not rend it, but cast a lot for it, whose it shall be;' that the Writing might be fulfilled, that is saying, `They divided my garments to themselves, and upon my raiment they did cast a lot;' the soldiers, therefore, indeed, did these things.

^{25 Ref} And there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary of Cleopas, and Mary the Magdalene;

^{26 Ref} Jesus, therefore, having seen `his' mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he was loving, he saith to his mother, `Woman, lo, thy son;'

^{27 Ref} afterward he saith to the disciple, `Lo, thy mother;' and from that hour the disciple took her to his own `home'.

^{28 Ref} After this, Jesus knowing that all things now have been finished, that the Writing may be fulfilled, saith, `I thirst;'

^{29 Ref} a vessel, therefore, was placed full of vinegar, and they having filled a sponge with vinegar, and having put `it' around a hyssop stalk, did put `it' to his mouth;

^{30 Ref} when, therefore, Jesus received the vinegar, he said, `It hath been finished;' and having bowed the head, gave up the spirit.

^{31 Ref} 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 taken away.

^{32 Ref} The soldiers, therefore, came, and of the first indeed they did break the legs, and of the other who was crucified with him,

³³ and having come to Jesus, when they saw him already having been dead, they did not break his legs;

^{34 Ref} but one of the soldiers with a spear did pierce his side, and immediately there came forth blood and water;

^{35 Ref} and he who hath seen hath testified, and his testimony is true, and that one hath known that true things he speaketh, that ye also may believe.

^{36 Ref} For these things came to pass, that the Writing may be fulfilled, `A bone of him shall not be broken;'

^{37 Ref} and again another Writing saith, `They shall look to him whom they did pierce.'

^{38 Ref} And after these things did Joseph of Arimathea -- being a disciple of Jesus, but concealed, through the fear of the Jews -- ask 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,

^{39 Ref} and Nicodemus also came -- who came unto Jesus by night at the first -- bearing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, as it were, a hundred pounds.

^{40 Ref} They took, therefore, 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;

^{41 Ref} and there was in the place where he was crucified a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one was yet laid;

^{42 Ref} there, therefore, because of the preparation of the Jews, because the tomb was nigh, they laid Jesus.

^{1 Ref} Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.

^{2 Ref} And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe,

^{3 Ref} And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands.

^{4 Ref} Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith unto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in him.

^{5 Ref} Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!

^{6 Ref} When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.

^{7 Ref} 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 Ref} When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;

^{9 Ref} And went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.

^{10 Ref} Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?

^{11 Ref} Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin.

^{12 Ref} And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar's friend: whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.

^{13 Ref} When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.

^{14 Ref} And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King!

^{15 Ref} But they 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 Ref} Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.

^{17 Ref} And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:

^{18 Ref} Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.

^{19 Ref} And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.

^{20 Ref} This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin.

^{21 Ref} 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 Ref} Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.

^{23 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.

^{25 Ref} Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.

^{26 Ref} When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!

^{27 Ref} Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.

^{28 Ref} After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.

^{29 Ref} 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 Ref} When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

^{31 Ref} The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

^{32 Ref} Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him.

³³ But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:

^{34 Ref} But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.

^{35 Ref} And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe.

^{36 Ref} For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.

^{37 Ref} And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.

^{38 Ref} And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, 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 Ref} And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.

^{40 Ref} Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.

^{41 Ref} Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid.

^{42 Ref} There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.

^{1 Ref} Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.

^{2 Ref} And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and arrayed him in a purple garment;

^{3 Ref} and they came unto him, and said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they struck him with their hands.

^{4 Ref} 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 Ref} Jesus therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. And `Pilate' saith unto them, Behold, the man!

^{6 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} When Pilate therefore heard this saying, he was the more afraid;

^{9 Ref} and he entered into the Praetorium again, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.

^{10 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} Now it was the Preparation of the passover: it was about the sixth hour. And he saith unto the Jews, Behold, your King!

^{15 Ref} 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 Ref} Then therefore he delivered him unto them to be crucified.

^{17 Ref} 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 Ref} where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.

^{19 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.

^{23 Ref} 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 Ref} 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.

^{25 Ref} These things therefore the soldiers did. 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 Ref} When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!

^{27 Ref} Then saith he to the disciple, Behold, thy mother! And from that hour the disciple took her unto his own `home'.

^{28 Ref} After this Jesus, knowing that all things are now finished, that the scripture might be accomplished, saith, I thirst.

^{29 Ref} 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 Ref} When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up his spirit.

^{31 Ref} 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 Ref} The soldiers therefore came, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other that was crucified with him:

³³ but when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:

^{34 Ref} howbeit one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and straightway there came out blood and water.

^{35 Ref} 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 Ref} For these things came to pass, that the scripture might be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.

^{37 Ref} And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.

^{38 Ref} 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 Ref} 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.

^{40 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} There then because of the Jews' Preparation (for the tomb was nigh at hand) they laid Jesus.
