1 E, logo de manhã, os principais sacerdotes reunindo-se em conselho com os anciãos e os escribas e todo o conselho, e amarrando Jesus, levaram-no, e o entregaram a Pilatos.2 E Pilatos lhe perguntou: És tu o REI DOS JUDEUS? E ele, respondendo, disse-lhe: Tu dizes isto.3 E os principais sacerdotes o acusavam de muitas coisas; mas ele nada respondia.4 E Pilatos perguntou-o novamente, dizendo: Nada respondes? Vê quantas coisas eles testemunham contra ti.5 Mas Jesus nada respondeu, de maneira que Pilatos se maravilhava.6 Ora, naquela festa ele libertava um prisioneiro, qualquer que eles desejassem.7 E havia um chamado Barrabás, que estava preso com outros insurgentes, que tinha cometido assassinato na insurreição.8 E a multidão, gritando em voz alta, começou a querer que ele fizesse como sempre lhes tinha feito.9 Mas Pilatos lhes respondeu, dizendo: Quereis que eu vos liberte o REI DOS JUDEUS?10 Porque ele sabia que por inveja os principais sacerdotes lhe haviam entregado.11 Mas os principais sacerdotes incitaram a multidão para que lhes soltasse antes Barrabás.12 E Pilatos, respondendo, lhes disse novamente: Então o que quereis que eu faça daquele a quem chamais de REI DOS JUDEUS?13 E eles gritaram novamente: Crucifica-o.14 Então Pilatos lhes disse: Por quê? Que mal ele fez? E eles cada vez gritavam mais excessivamente: Crucifica-o.15 E, então, Pilatos, querendo satisfazer a multidão, libertou-lhes Barrabás, e entregou Jesus, após tê-lo açoitado, para ser crucificado.16 E os soldados o levaram para dentro do saguão chamado Pretório, e convocaram todo destacamento.17 E vestiram-no com púrpura, e entrelaçaram uma coroa de espinhos, puseram-lha na sua cabeça,18 e começaram a saudá-lo: Salve, REI DOS JUDEUS!19 E feriram-no na cabeça com uma cana, e cuspiram nele, e curvando os seus joelhos, o adoraram.20 E, tendo zombado dele, tiraram-lhe a púrpura, e lhe puseram suas próprias vestes; e o levaram para fora a fim de crucificá-lo.21 E obrigaram a um certo Simão, cireneu, pai de Alexandre e de Rufo, que por ali passava, vindo do campo, a carregar sua cruz.22 E levaram-no ao lugar do Gólgota, que quer dizer: Lugar da Caveira.23 E deram-lhe para beber vinho misturado com mirra, mas ele não o recebeu.24 E, havendo-o crucificado, repartiram as suas vestes, lançando sorte sobre elas, o que cada homem tomaria.25 E era a hora terceira, e eles o crucificaram.26 E a epígrafe de sua acusação estava escrita: O REI DOS JUDEUS.27 E crucificaram com ele dois ladrões, um à sua direita, e outro à sua esquerda.28 E cumpriu-se a escritura, que diz: E com os transgressores ele foi contado.29 E os que passavam insultavam-no, meneando as suas cabeças, e dizendo: Ah! Tu que destróis o templo, e em três dias o reconstróis,30 salva-te a ti mesmo, e desce da cruz.31 E da mesma maneira também os principais sacerdotes, com os escribas, zombando, diziam uns aos outros: Ele salvou a outros, a si mesmo não pode salvar.32 Desça agora da cruz o Cristo, o rei de Israel, para que vejamos e creiamos. Também os que foram crucificados com ele o injuriavam.33 E, chegada à hora sexta, houve trevas sobre toda a terra até a hora nona.34 E, à hora nona, Jesus gritou em alta voz, dizendo: Eloí, Eloí, lamá sabactâni? Que, traduzido, é: Meu Deus, meu Deus, por que tu me abandonaste?35 E alguns dos que ali estavam, ouvindo isso, diziam: Eis que ele chama por Elias.36 E um deles correu a embeber uma esponja com vinagre e, pondo-a em uma cana, dava-lhe de beber, dizendo: Deixa-o em paz, vejamos se Elias vem para tirá-lo.37 E Jesus, gritando em alta voz, rendeu o espírito.38 E o véu do templo se rasgou em dois, de cima para baixo.39 E o centurião, que estava defronte dele, vendo-o gritar e render o espírito, disse: Verdadeiramente este homem era o Filho de Deus.40 E também ali estavam algumas mulheres, olhando de longe, entre as quais estavam 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 Galileia); e muitas outras mulheres que tinham subido com ele para Jerusalém.42 E, chegada a tarde, pois era o dia da preparação, isto é, o dia antes do shabat,43 José de Arimateia, um conselheiro honrado, que também esperava o reino de Deus, foi corajosamente a Pilatos e implorava pelo corpo de Jesus.44 E Pilatos se maravilhou que já estivesse morto. E, chamando a si o centurião, perguntou-lhe se já havia muito que tinha morrido.45 E, depois que o soube do centurião, ele deu o corpo a José.46 E ele comprou um pano de linho, e, tendo-o descido, envolveu-o no pano, e deitou-o em uma sepultura lavrada na rocha, e rolou uma pedra para a porta da sepultura.47 E Maria Madalena e Maria, a mãe de José, observavam onde fora colocado.

1 And immediately, in the morning, the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council; and they bound Jesus, led Him away, and delivered Him to Pilate.2 And Pilate asked Him, Are You the King of the Jews? He answered and said to him, It is as you say.3 And the chief priests accused Him of many things, but He answered nothing.4 Then Pilate asked Him again, saying, Do You answer nothing? Behold how many things they witness against You!5 But Jesus still answered nothing, so that Pilate marveled.6 Now at the feast he was accustomed to releasing one prisoner to them, whomever they asked.7 And there was one named Barabbas, who was in bonds with his fellow rebels; they had committed murder in the insurrection.8 And the multitude, crying aloud, began to ask him to do just as he had always done for them.9 But Pilate answered them, saying, Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?10 For he knew that the chief priests had delivered Him up because of envy.11 But the chief priests stirred up the crowd, so that he should rather release Barabbas to them.12 So Pilate answered and said to them again, What then do you want me to do with Him whom you call the King of the Jews?13 And they cried out again, Crucify Him!14 Then Pilate said to them, Why, what evil has He done? But they cried out all the more, Crucify Him!15 So Pilate, intending to gratify the crowd, released Barabbas to them; and he delivered Jesus, after he had scourged Him, to be crucified.16 And the soldiers led Him away into the hall called Praetorium, and they called together the whole garrison.17 And they clothed Him with purple; and they wove a crown of thorns, put it on Him,18 and began to salute Him, Hail, King of the Jews!19 And they struck Him on the head with a reed and spat on Him; and bending the knee, they bowed to Him.20 And when they had mocked Him, they took the purple off Him, put His own clothes on Him, and led Him out to crucify Him.21 And they compelled a certain man, Simon a Cyrenian, the father of Alexander and Rufus, as he was coming out of the country and passing by, to bear His cross.22 And they brought Him to the place Golgotha, which is translated, Place of a Skull.23 And they gave Him wine mixed with myrrh to drink, but He did not take it.24 And when they crucified Him, they divided His garments, casting lots for them to determine what every man should take.25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified Him.26 And the inscription of His accusation was written above: THE KING OF THE JEWS.27 And they also crucified two robbers with Him, one on His right and the other on His left.28 And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, And He was numbered with the transgressors.29 And those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads and saying, Aha! You who destroy the temple and build it in three days,30 save Yourself, and come down from the cross!31 Likewise the chief priests also, mocking among themselves with the scribes, said, He saved others, but He is not able to save Himself.32 Let the Christ, the King of Israel, descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. Even those who were crucified with Him reviled Him.33 And when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is translated, My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?35 And some of those who stood by, when they heard that, said, Behold, He is calling for Elijah.36 And someone ran and filled a sponge full of vinegar, put it on a reed, and gave it to Him to drink, saying, Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to take Him down.37 And Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and breathed His last.38 And the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom.39 And when the centurion, who stood opposite Him, saw that He cried out like this and breathed His last, he said, Truly this Man was the Son of God!40 There were also women looking on from afar, among whom were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of Jacob the Less and of Joses, and Salome,41 who also followed Him and ministered to Him when He was in Galilee, and many other women who came up with Him to Jerusalem.42 Now when evening had come, because it was the Preparation Day, that is, the day before the Sabbath,43 Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent council member, who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God, coming, boldly went in to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.44 And Pilate marveled that He had already died; and summoning the centurion, he asked him if He had been dead for awhile.45 And when he found out from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.46 And he bought fine linen, took Him down, and wrapped Him in the linen. And he laid Him in a tomb which had been hewn out of the rock, and rolled a stone against the door of the tomb.47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses observed where He was laid.
