1 When morning came, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put Him to death.
2 And when they had bound Him, they led Him away and delivered Him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
3 Then Judas, His betrayer, seeing that He was condemned, repented and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,
4 saying, I have sinned by betraying innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? You see to it.
5 And he threw down the pieces of silver in the temple and departed, and went and hanged himself.
6 And the chief priests took the silver pieces and said, It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.
7 And they took counsel and bought with them the potters field, to bury strangers in.
8 Therefore that field has been called the Field of Blood to this day.
9 Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of Him who was valued, whom they of the children of Israel valued,
10 and gave them for the potters field, as the Lord directed me.
11 And Jesus stood before the governor. And the governor questioned Him, saying, Are You the King of the Jews? And Jesus said to him, It is as you say.
12 And while He was being accused by the chief priests and elders, He answered nothing.
13 Then Pilate said to Him, Do You not hear how many things they witness against You?
14 But He answered him not one word, so that the governor marveled greatly.
15 Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to releasing to the multitude one prisoner whom they wished.
16 And at that time they had a notorious prisoner called Barabbas.
17 Therefore, when they had gathered together, Pilate said to them, Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?
18 For he knew that they had delivered Him over because of envy.
19 While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, Have nothing to do with that just Man, for I have suffered many things today in a dream because of Him.
20 But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitudes that they should ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus.
21 The governor answered and said to them, Which of the two do you want me to release to you? They said, Barabbas!
22 Pilate said to them, What then shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ? They all say to him, Let Him be crucified!
23 And the governor said, Why, what evil has He done? But they cried out all the more, saying, Let Him be crucified!
24 When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but rather that a tumult was rising, he took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just Person. You see to it.
25 And all the people answered and said, His blood be on us and on our children.
26 Then he released Barabbas to them; and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered Him to be crucified.
27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the Praetorium and gathered the whole garrison against Him.
28 And they stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him.
29 And when they had woven a crown of thorns, they put it on His head, and a reed in His right hand. And they bowed the knee before Him and mocked Him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
30 And they spat on Him, and took the reed and struck Him on the head.
31 And when they had mocked Him, they took the robe off Him, put His own clothes on Him, and led Him away to crucify Him.
32 Now as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. Him they compelled to bear His cross.
33 And when they had come to a place called Golgotha, that is to say, Place of a Skull,
34 they gave Him vinegar mixed with gall to drink. But when He had tasted it, He would not drink.
35 And they crucified Him, and divided His garments, casting lots, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet: They divided My garments among them, and for My clothing they cast lots.
36 And sitting down, they kept watch over Him there.
37 And they put up over His head the accusation written against Him: THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 And two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and another on the left.
39 And those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads
40 and saying, You who destroys the temple and builds it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross.
41 Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the scribes and elders, said,
42 He saved others; He has no power to save Himself. If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe Him.
43 He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, I am the Son of God.
44 Even the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing.
45 Now from the sixth hour until the ninth hour there was darkness over all the land.
46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?
47 Some of those who stood there, when they heard that, said, This Man calls for Elijah.
48 And immediately one of them ran and took a sponge, filled it with vinegar and put it on a reed, and gave Him to drink.
49 The rest said, Let be; let us see if Elijah will come to save Him.
50 And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice, and yielded up His spirit.
51 Then, behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth quaked, and the rocks were split,
52 and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised;
53 and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and were manifest to many.
54 Now when the centurion and those with him, who were guarding Jesus, saw the earthquake and the things that had happened, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God!
55 And many women who followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to Him, were there looking on from afar,
56 among whom were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of Jacob and Joses, and the mother of Zebedees sons.
57 And when evening had come, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who himself was also a disciple of Jesus.
58 He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. And Pilate commanded the body to be given.
59 And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
60 and laid it in his new tomb which he had hewn out of the rock; and he rolled a large stone against the door of the tomb, and departed.
61 And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the tomb.
62 And on the next day, which followed the Day of Preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees gathered together to Pilate,
63 saying, Sir, we remember, while He was still alive, how that deceiver said, After three days I will rise.
64 Therefore, command that the tomb be made secure until the third day, that His disciples not come by night and steal Him away, and say to the people, He has risen from the dead. So the last deception will be worse than the first.
65 Pilate said to them, You have a guard; go your way, make it as secure as you know how.
66 So they went and made the tomb secure, sealing the stone and setting the guard.
1 E, CHEGANDO a manhã, todos os príncipes dos sacerdotes, e os anciãos do povo, formavam juntamente conselho contra Jesus, para o matarem; 2 E manietando-o, o levaram e entregaram ao presidente Pôncio Pilatos. 3 Então Judas, o que o traíra, vendo que fora condenado, trouxe, arrependido, as trinta moedas de prata aos príncipes dos sacerdotes e aos anciãos, 4 Dizendo: Pequei, traindo o sangue inocente. Eles, porém, disseram: Que nos importa? Isso é contigo. 5 E ele, atirando para o templo as moedas de prata, retirou-se e foi-se enforcar. 6 E os príncipes dos sacerdotes, tomando as moedas de prata, disseram: Não é lícito metê-las no cofre das ofertas, porque são preço de sangue. 7 E, tendo deliberado em conselho, compraram com elas o campo dum oleiro, para sepultura dos estrangeiros. 8 Por isso foi chamado aquele campo, até ao dia de hoje, Campo de sangue. 9 Então se realizou o que vaticinara o profeta Jeremias: Tomaram as trinta moedas de prata preço do que foi avaliado, que certos filhos d’Israel avaliaram. 10 E deram-nas pelo campo do oleiro, segundo o que o Senhor determinou.
11 E foi Jesus apresentado ao presidente, e o presidente o interrogou, dizendo: És tu o Rei dos judeus? E disse-lhe Jesus: Tu o dizes. 12 E, sendo acusado pelos príncipes dos sacerdotes e pelos anciãos, nada respondeu. 13 Disse-lhe então Pilatos: Não ouves quanto testificam contra ti? 14 E nem uma palavra lhe respondeu, de sorte que o presidente estava muito maravilhado. 15 Ora, por ocasião da festa, costumava o presidente soltar um preso, escolhendo o povo aquele que quisesse. 16 E tinham então um preso bem-conhecido, chamado Barrabás. 17 Portanto, estando eles reunidos, disse-lhes Pilatos: Qual quereis que vos solte? Barrabás, ou Jesus, chamado Cristo? 18 Porque sabia que por inveja o haviam entregado. 19 E, estando ele assentado no tribunal, sua mulher mandou-lhe dizer: Não entres na questão desse justo, porque num sonho muito sofri por causa dele. 20 Mas os príncipes dos sacerdotes e os anciãos persuadiram à multidão que pedisse Barrabás e matasse Jesus. 21 E, respondendo o presidente, disse-lhes: Qual desses dois quereis vós que eu solte? E eles disseram: Barrabás. 22 Disse-lhes Pilatos: Que farei então de Jesus, chamado Cristo? Disseram-lhe todos: Seja crucificado. 23 O presidente, porém, disse: Mas que mal fez ele? E eles mais clamavam, dizendo: Seja crucificado. 24 Então Pilatos, vendo que nada aproveitava, antes o tumulto crescia, tomando água, lavou as mãos diante da multidão, dizendo: Estou inocente do sangue deste justo: considerai isso. 25 E, respondendo todo o povo, disse: O seu sangue caia sobre nós e sobre nossos filhos. 26 Então soltou-lhes Barrabás, e, tendo mandado açoitar a Jesus, entregou-o para ser crucificado. 27 E logo os soldados do presidente, conduzindo Jesus à audiência, reuniram junto dele toda a coorte. 28 E, despindo-o, o cobriram com uma capa de escarlate; 29 E, tecendo uma coroa de espinhos, puseram-lha na cabeça, e em sua mão direita uma cana; e, ajoelhando diante dele, o escarneciam, dizendo: Salve, Rei dos judeus. 30 E, cuspindo nele, tiraram-lhe a cana, e batiam-lhe com ela na cabeça. 31 E, depois de o haverem escarnecido, tiraram-lhe a capa, vestiram-lhe as suas vestes e o levaram para ser crucificado.
32 E, quando saíam, encontraram um homem cireneu, chamado Simão, a quem constrangeram a levar a sua cruz. 33 E, chegando ao lugar chamado Gólgota, que se diz: Lugar da Caveira, 34 Deram-lhe a beber vinho misturado com fel; mas ele, provando-o, não quis beber. 35 E, havendo-o crucificado, repartiram os seus vestidos, lançando sortes, para que se cumprisse o que foi dito pelo profeta: Repartiram entre si os meus vestidos, e sobre a minha túnica lançaram sortes. 36 E, assentados, o guardavam ali. 37 E por cima da sua cabeça puseram escrita a sua acusação: Este É Jesus, O Rei dos Judeus. 38 E foram crucificados com ele dois salteadores, um à direita, e outro à esquerda. 39 E os que passavam blasfemavam dele, meneando as cabeças, 40 E dizendo: Tu, que destróis o templo, e em três dias o reedificas, salva-te a ti mesmo; se és Filho de Deus, desce da cruz. 41 E da mesma maneira também os príncipes dos sacerdotes, com os escribas, e anciãos, e fariseus, escarnecendo, diziam: 42 Salvou os outros, e a si mesmo não pode salvar-se. Se é o Rei d’Israel, desça agora da cruz, e creremos nele; 43 Confiou em Deus; livre-o agora, se o ama; porque disse: Sou Filho de Deus. 44 E o mesmo lhe lançaram também em rosto os salteadores que com ele estavam crucificados. 45 E desde a hora sexta houve trevas sobre toda a terra, até à hora nona. 46 E perto da hora nona exclamou Jesus em alta voz, dizendo: Eli, Eli, lama sabactâni, isto é, Deus meu, Deus meu, por que me desamparaste? 47 E alguns dos que ali estavam, ouvindo isto, diziam: Este chama por Elias. 48 E logo um deles, correndo, tomou uma esponja, e embebeu-a em vinagre, e, pondo-a numa cana, dava-lhe de beber. 49 Os outros, porém, diziam: Deixa, vejamos se Elias vem livrá-lo. 50 E Jesus, clamando outra vez com grande voz, rendeu o espírito. 51 E eis que o véu do templo se rasgou em dois, de alto a baixo; e tremeu a terra, e fenderam-se as pedras. 52 E abriram-se os sepulcros, e muitos corpos de santos que dormiam foram ressuscitados; 53 E, saindo dos sepulcros, depois da ressurreição dele, entraram na cidade santa, e apareceram a muitos. 54 E o centurião e os que com ele guardavam a Jesus, vendo o terremoto, e as coisas que haviam sucedido, tiveram grande temor, e disseram: Verdadeiramente este era Filho de Deus. 55 E estavam ali, olhando de longe, muitas mulheres que tinham seguido Jesus desde a Galileia, para o servir; 56 Entre as quais estavam Maria Madalena, e Maria, mãe de Tiago e de José, e a mãe dos filhos de Zebedeu.
57 E, vinda já a tarde, chegou um homem rico de Arimateia, por nome José, que também era discípulo de Jesus. 58 Este foi ter com Pilatos, e pediu-lhe o corpo de Jesus. Então Pilatos mandou que o corpo lhe fosse dado. 59 E José, tomando o corpo, envolveu-o num fino e limpo lençol, 60 E o pôs no seu sepulcro novo, que havia aberto em rocha, e, rodando uma grande pedra para a porta do sepulcro, foi-se. 61 E estavam ali Maria Madalena e a outra Maria, assentadas defronte do sepulcro. 62 E no dia seguinte, que é o dia depois da Preparação, reuniram-se os príncipes dos sacerdotes e os fariseus em casa de Pilatos. 63 Dizendo: Senhor, lembramo-nos de que aquele enganador, vivendo ainda, disse: Depois de três dias ressuscitarei. 64 Manda pois que o sepulcro seja guardado com segurança até o terceiro dia, não se dê o caso que os seus discípulos vão de noite, e o furtem, e digam ao povo: Ressuscitou dos mortos; e assim o último erro será pior do que o primeiro. 65 E disse-lhes Pilatos: Tendes a guarda; ide, guardai-o como entenderdes. 66 E, indo eles, seguraram o sepulcro com a guarda, selando a pedra.
