1 So Pilate then took Jesus and flogged him. 2 The soldiers twisted thorns into a crown and put it on his head, and dressed him in a purple garment. 3 They kept saying, "Hail, King of the Jews!" and they kept slapping him.
4 Then Pilate went out again, and said to them, "Behold, I bring him out to you, that you may know that I find no basis for a charge against him."
5 Jesus therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. Pilate said to them, "Behold, the man!"
6 When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they shouted, saying, "Crucify! Crucify!"
Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves and crucify him, for I find no basis for a charge against him."
7 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 When therefore Pilate heard this saying, he was more afraid. 9 He entered into the Praetorium again, and said to Jesus, "Where are you from?" But Jesus gave him no answer. 10 Pilate therefore said to him, "Aren’t you speaking to me? Don’t you know that I have power to release you and have power to crucify you?"
11 Jesus answered, "You would have no power at all against me, unless it were given to you from above. Therefore he who delivered me to you has greater sin."
12 At this, Pilate was seeking to release him, but the Jews cried out, saying, "If you release this man, you aren’t Caesar’s friend! Everyone who makes himself a king speaks against Caesar!"
13 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 Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, at about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, "Behold, your King!"
15 They cried out, "Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!"
Pilate said to them, "Shall I crucify your King?"
The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar!"
16 So then he delivered him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led him away. 17 He went out, bearing his cross, to the place called "The Place of a Skull", which is called in Hebrew, "Golgotha", 18 where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the middle. 19 Pilate wrote a title also, and put it on the cross. There was written, "JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS." 20 Therefore many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek. 21 The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, "Don’t write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but, ‘he said, "I am King of the Jews."’"
22 Pilate answered, "What I have written, I have written."
23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top throughout. 24 Then they said to one another, "Let’s not tear it, but cast lots for it to decide whose it will be," that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which says,
"They parted my garments among them.
They cast lots for my clothing."
Therefore the soldiers did these things.
25 But standing by Jesus’ cross were his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 Therefore when Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing there, he said to his mother, "Woman, behold, your son!" 27 Then he said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother!" From that hour, the disciple took her to his own home.
28 After this, Jesus, seeing that all things were now finished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, "I am thirsty!" 29 Now a vessel full of vinegar was set there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop, and held it at his mouth. 30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, "It is finished!" Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
31 Therefore the Jews, because it was the Preparation Day, so that the bodies wouldn’t remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken away. 32 Therefore the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with him; 33 but when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they didn’t break his legs. 34 However, one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out. 35 He who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, that you may believe. 36 For these things happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled, "A bone of him will not be broken." 37 Again another Scripture says, "They will look on him whom they pierced."
38 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 Jesus’ body. Pilate gave him permission. He came therefore and took away his body. 39 Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred Roman pounds. 40 So they took Jesus’ body, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury. 41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden. In the garden was a new tomb in which no man had ever yet been laid. 42 Then, because of the Jews’ Preparation Day (for the tomb was near at hand), they laid Jesus there.
1 Pilatos, pois, tomou então a Jesus, e o açoitou.
2 E os soldados, tecendo uma coroa de espinhos, lha puseram sobre a cabeça, e lhe vestiram roupa de púrpura.
3 E diziam: Salve, Rei dos Judeus. E davam-lhe bofetadas.
4 Então Pilatos saiu outra vez fora, e disse-lhes: Eis aqui vo-lo trago fora, para que saibais que não acho nele crime algum.
5 Saiu, pois, Jesus fora, levando a coroa de espinhos e roupa de púrpura. E disse-lhes Pilatos: Eis aqui o homem.
6 Vendo-o, pois, os principais dos sacerdotes e os servos, clamaram, dizendo: Crucifica-o, crucifica-o. Disse-lhes Pilatos: Tomai-o vós, e crucificai-o; porque eu nenhum crime acho nele.
7 Responderam-lhe os judeus: Nós temos uma lei e, segundo a nossa lei, deve morrer, porque se fez Filho de Deus.
8 E Pilatos, quando ouviu esta palavra, mais atemorizado ficou.
9 E entrou outra vez na audiência, e disse a Jesus: De onde és tu? Mas Jesus não lhe deu resposta.
10 Disse-lhe, pois, Pilatos: Não me falas a mim? Não sabes tu que tenho poder para te crucificar e tenho poder para te soltar?
11 Respondeu Jesus: Nenhum poder terias contra mim, se de cima não te fosse dado; mas aquele que me entregou a ti maior pecado tem.
12 Desde então Pilatos procurava soltá-lo; mas os judeus clamavam, dizendo: Se soltas este, não és amigo de César; qualquer que se faz rei é contra César.
13 Ouvindo, pois, Pilatos este dito, levou Jesus para fora, e assentou-se no tribunal, no lugar chamado Litóstrotos, e em hebraico Gabatá.
14 E era a preparação da páscoa, e quase à hora sexta; e disse aos judeus: Eis aqui o vosso Rei.
15 Mas eles bradaram: Tira, tira, crucifica-o. Disse-lhes Pilatos: Hei de crucificar o vosso Rei? Responderam os principais dos sacerdotes: Não temos rei, senão César.
16 Então, consequentemente entregou-lho, para que fosse crucificado. E tomaram a Jesus, e o levaram.
17 E, levando ele às costas a sua cruz, saiu para o lugar chamado Caveira, que em hebraico se chama Gólgota,
18 Onde o crucificaram, e com ele outros dois, um de cada lado, e Jesus no meio.
19 E Pilatos escreveu também um título, e pô-lo em cima da cruz; e nele estava escrito: JESUS NAZARENO, O REI DOS JUDEUS.
20 E muitos dos judeus leram este título; porque o lugar onde Jesus estava crucificado era próximo da cidade; e estava escrito em hebraico, grego e latim.
21 Diziam, pois, os principais sacerdotes dos judeus a Pilatos: Não escrevas, O Rei dos Judeus, mas que ele disse: Sou o Rei dos Judeus.
22 Respondeu Pilatos: O que escrevi, escrevi.
23 Tendo, pois, os soldados crucificado a Jesus, tomaram as suas vestes, e fizeram quatro partes, para cada soldado uma parte; e também a túnica. A túnica, porém, tecida toda de alto a baixo, não tinha costura.
24 Disseram, pois, uns aos outros: Não a rasguemos, mas lancemos sortes sobre ela, para ver de quem será. Para que se cumprisse a Escritura que diz: Repartiram entre si as minhas vestes, E sobre a minha vestidura lançaram sortes. Os soldados, pois, fizeram estas coisas.
25 E junto à cruz de Jesus estava sua mãe, e a irmã de sua mãe, Maria mulher de Clopas, e Maria Madalena.
26 Ora Jesus, vendo ali sua mãe, e que o discípulo a quem ele amava estava presente, disse a sua mãe: Mulher, eis aí o teu filho.
27 Depois disse ao discípulo: Eis aí tua mãe. E desde aquela hora o discípulo a recebeu em sua casa.
28 Depois, sabendo Jesus que já todas as coisas estavam terminadas, para que a Escritura se cumprisse, disse: Tenho sede.
29 Estava, pois, ali um vaso cheio de vinagre. E encheram de vinagre uma esponja, e, pondo-a num hissopo, lha chegaram à boca.
30 E, quando Jesus tomou o vinagre, disse: Está consumado. E, inclinando a cabeça, entregou o espírito.
31 Os judeus, pois, para que no sábado não ficassem os corpos na cruz, visto como era a preparação (pois era grande o dia de sábado), rogaram a Pilatos que se lhes quebrassem as pernas, e fossem tirados.
32 Foram, pois, os soldados, e, na verdade, quebraram as pernas ao primeiro, e ao outro que como ele fora crucificado;
33 Mas, vindo a Jesus, e vendo-o já morto, não lhe quebraram as pernas.
34 Contudo um dos soldados lhe furou o lado com uma lança, e logo saiu sangue e água.
35 E aquele que o viu testificou, e o seu testemunho é verdadeiro; e sabe que é verdade o que diz, para que também vós o creiais.
36 Porque isto aconteceu para que se cumprisse a Escritura, que diz: Nenhum dos seus ossos será quebrado.
37 E outra vez diz a Escritura: Verão aquele que traspassaram.
38 Depois disto, José de Arimatéia (o que era discípulo de Jesus, mas oculto, por medo dos judeus) rogou a Pilatos que lhe permitisse tirar o corpo de Jesus. E Pilatos lho permitiu. Então foi e tirou o corpo de Jesus.
39 E foi também Nicodemos (aquele que anteriormente se dirigira de noite a Jesus), levando quase cem arráteis de um composto de mirra e aloés.
40 Tomaram, pois, o corpo de Jesus e o envolveram em lençóis com as especiarias, como os judeus costumam fazer, na preparação para o sepulcro.
41 E havia um horto naquele lugar onde fora crucificado, e no horto um sepulcro novo, em que ainda ninguém havia sido posto.
42 Ali, pois (por causa da preparação dos judeus, e por estar perto aquele sepulcro), puseram a Jesus.
