³⁷ for I say to you, that yet this that hath been written it behoveth to be fulfilled in me: And with lawless ones he was reckoned, for also the things concerning me have an end.'

¹² Therefore I give a portion to him among the many, And with the mighty he apportioneth spoil, Because that he exposed to death his soul, And with transgressors he was numbered, And he the sin of many hath borne, And for transgressors he intercedeth.

¹³ Christ did redeem us from the curse of the law, having become for us a curse, for it hath been written, `Cursed is every one who is hanging on a tree,'

²¹ for him who did not know sin, in our behalf He did make sin, that we may become the righteousness of God in him.

²⁷ for those dwelling in Jerusalem, and their chiefs, this one not having known, also the voices of the prophets, which every sabbath are being read -- having judged `him' -- did fulfill,

²⁸ and no cause of death having found, they did ask of Pilate that he should be slain,

²⁹ and when they did complete all the things written about him, having taken `him' down from the tree, they laid him in a tomb;

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

²⁹ 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 when, therefore, Jesus received the vinegar, he said, `It hath been finished;' and having bowed the head, gave up the spirit.

⁴ I did glorify Thee on the earth, the work I did finish that Thou hast given me, that I may do `it'.

³⁵ if them he did call gods unto whom the word of God came, (and the Writing is not able to be broken,)

⁴⁴ and he said to them, `These `are' the words that I spake unto you, being yet with you, that it behoveth to be fulfilled all the things that are written in the Law of Moses, and the Prophets, and the Psalms, about me.'

⁴⁵ Then opened he up their understanding to understand the Writings,

⁴⁶ and he said to them -- `Thus it hath been written, and thus it was behoving the Christ to suffer, and to rise out of the dead the third day,

³² And there were also others -- two evil-doers -- with him, to be put to death;

²² and indeed the Son of Man doth go according to what hath been determined; but wo to that man through whom he is being delivered up.'

³¹ And having taken the twelve aside, he said unto them, `Lo, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things shall be completed -- that have been written through the prophets -- to the Son of Man,

²⁷ And with him they crucify two robbers, one on the right hand, and one on his left,

⁵⁴ how then may the Writings be fulfilled, that thus it behoveth to happen?'

⁵⁵ In that hour said Jesus to the multitudes, `As against a robber ye did come forth, with swords and sticks, to take me! daily with you I was sitting teaching in the temple, and ye did not lay hold on me;

⁵⁶ but all this hath come to pass, that the Writings of the prophets may be fulfilled;' then all the disciples, having left him, fled.
