1 E, logo ao amanhecer, os principais dos sacerdotes, com os anciãos, e os escribas, e todo o Sinédrio, tiveram conselho; e, ligando Jesus, o levaram e entregaram a Pilatos.
2 E Pilatos lhe perguntou: Tu és o Rei dos Judeus? E ele, respondendo, disse-lhe: Tu o dizes.
3 E os principais dos sacerdotes o acusavam de muitas coisas; porém ele nada respondia.
4 E Pilatos o interrogou outra vez, dizendo: Nada respondes? Vê quantas coisas testificam contra ti.
5 Mas Jesus nada mais respondeu, de maneira que Pilatos se maravilhava.
6 Ora, no dia da festa costumava soltar-lhes um preso qualquer que eles pedissem.
7 E havia um chamado Barrabás, que, preso com outros amotinado- res, tinha num motim cometido uma morte.
8 E a multidão, dando gritos, começou a pedir que fizesse como sempre lhes tinha feito.
9 E Pilatos lhes respondeu, dizendo: Quereis que vos solte o Rei dos Judeus?
10 Porque ele bem sabia que por inveja os principais dos sacerdotes o tinham entregado.
11 Mas os principais dos sacerdotes incitaram a multidão para que fosse solto antes Barrabás.
12 E Pilatos, respondendo, lhes disse outra vez: Que quereis, pois, que faça daquele a quem chamais Rei dos Judeus?
13 E eles tornaram a clamar: Crucifica-o.
14 Mas Pilatos lhes disse: Mas que mal fez? E eles cada vez clamavam mais: Crucifica-o.
15 Então Pilatos, querendo satisfazer a multidão, soltou-lhe Barrabás e, açoitado Jesus, o entregou para ser crucificado.
16 E os soldados o levaram dentro à sala, que é a da audiência, e convocaram toda a coorte.
17 E vestiram-no de púrpura, e tecendo uma coroa de espinhos, lha puseram na cabeça.
18 E começaram a saudá-lo, dizendo: Salve, Rei dos Judeus!
19 E feriram-no na cabeça com uma cana, e cuspiram nele e, postos de joelhos, o adoraram.
20 E, havendo-o escarnecido, despiram-lhe a púrpura, e o vestiram com as suas próprias vestes; e o levaram para fora a fim de o crucificarem.
21 E constrangeram um certo Simão, cireneu, pai de Alexandre e de Rufo, que por ali passava, vindo do campo, a que levasse a cruz.
22 E levaram-no ao lugar doGólgota, que se traduz por lugar da Caveira.
23 E deram-lhe a beber vinho com mirra, mas ele não o tomou.
24 E, havendo-o crucificado, repartiram as suas vestes, lançando sobre elas sortes, para saber o que cada um levaria.
25 E era a hora terceira, e o crucificaram.
26 E por cima dele estava escrita a sua acusação: O REI DOS JUDEUS.
27 E crucificaram com ele dois salteadores, um à sua direita, e outro à esquerda.
28 E cumprindo-se a escritura que diz: E com os malfeitores foi contado.
29 E os que passavam blasfemavam dele, meneando as suas cabeças, e dizendo: Ah! tu que derrubas o templo, e em três dias o edificas,
30 Salva-te a ti mesmo, e desce da cruz.
31 E da mesma maneira também os principais dos sacerdotes, com os escribas, diziam uns para os outros, zombando: Salvou os outros, e não pode salvar-se a si mesmo.
32 O Cristo, o Rei de Israel, desça agora da cruz, para que o vejamos e acreditemos. Também os que com ele foram crucificados o injuriavam.
33 E, chegada a hora sexta, houve trevas sobre toda a terra até a hora nona.
34 E, à hora nona, Jesus exclamou com grande voz, dizendo: Eloí, Eloí, lamá sabactâni? que, traduzido, é: Deus meu, Deus meu, por que me desamparaste?
35 E alguns dos que ali estavam, ouvindo isto, diziam: Eis que chama por Elias.
36 E um deles correu a embeber uma esponja em vinagre e, pondo-a numa cana, deu-lho a beber, dizendo: Deixai, vejamos se virá Elias tirá-lo.
37 E Jesus, dando um grande brado, expirou.
38 E o véu do templo se rasgou em dois, de alto a baixo.
39 E o centurião, que estava defronte dele, vendo que assim clamando expirara, disse: Verdadeiramente este homem era o Filho de Deus.
40 E também ali estavam algumas mulheres, olhando de longe, entre as quais também Maria Madalena, e Maria, mãe de Tiago, o menor, e de José, e Salomé;
41 As quais também o seguiam, e o serviam, quando estava na Galiléia; e muitas outras, que tinham subido com ele a Jerusalém.
42 E, chegada a tarde, porquanto era o dia da preparação, isto é, a véspera do sábado,
43 Chegou José de Arimatéia, senador honrado, que também esperava o reino de Deus, e ousadamente foi a Pilatos, e pediu o corpo de Jesus.
44 E Pilatos se maravilhou de que já estivesse morto. E, chamando o centurião, perguntou-lhe se já havia muito que tinha morrido.
45 E, tendo-se certificado pelo centurião, deu o corpo a José;
46 O qual comprara um lençol fino, e, tirando-o da cruz, o envolveu nele, e o depositou num sepulcro lavrado numa rocha; e revolveu uma pedra para a porta do sepulcro.
47 E Maria Madalena e Maria, mãe de José, observavam onde o punham.
1 And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate. 2 And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said unto him, Thou sayest it. 3 And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing. 4 And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against thee. 5 But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled. 6 Now at that feast he released unto them one prisoner, whomsoever they desired. 7 And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection. 8 And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto them. 9 But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews? 10 For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy. 11 But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them. 12 And Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will ye then that I shall do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews? 13 And they cried out again, Crucify him. 14 Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.
15 And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified. 16 And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Prætorium; and they call together the whole band. 17 And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head, 18 And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews! 19 And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him. 20 And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him. 21 And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross. 22 And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull. 23 And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not. 24 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take. 25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him. 26 And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS. 27 And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left. 28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors. 29 And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, 30 Save thyself, and come down from the cross. 31 Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save. 32 Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him. 33 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. 34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? 35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calleth Elias. 36 And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take him down. 37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost. 38 And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.
39 And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God. 40 There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome; 41 (Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him;) and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem.
42 And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath, 43 Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus. 44 And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead. 45 And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph. 46 And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre. 47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.
