== Led to Pilate ==

[1] And the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate.

=== Accuse Him ===

[2] And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this fellow perverting the nation, and forbidding to give [[tribute]] to [[Caesar]], saying that he himself is [[Christ]] a King.<Ref name="Anothking">{{Anothking}}</Ref>

[3] And Pilate asked him, saying, '''Art thou the King of the Jews'''?<Ref name="kingjews">{{kingjews}}</Ref> And he answered him and said, <span style="color:red">'''Thou sayest it.'''</span>

=== No fault ===

[4] Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people, I find no fault in this man.

[5] And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place.

[6] When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilaean.

=== Sent to Antipas ===

[7] And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto [[Herod Antipas|Herod's]] [[jurisdiction]], he sent him to Herod, who himself also was at ''Jerusalem'' at that time.

[8] And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he was desirous to see him of a long season, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.

[9] Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.

[10] And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.

=== The robe ===

[11] And [[Herod Antipas|Herod]] with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked him, and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe,<Ref name="Roben">{{Roben}}</Ref> and sent him again to Pilate.

== Pilate and Herod friends ==

[12] And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between themselves.

[13] And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,

=== Again no fault ===

[14] Said unto them, '''Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth the people: and, behold, I, having examined him before you, have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him:'''

[15] No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing worthy of death is done unto him.

== Chatise ==

[16] I will therefore chastise him, and release him.

=== Barabbas ===

[17] (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)

[18] And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release unto us [[Barabbas]]:

[19] (Who for a certain sedition<Ref name="stasis">{{4714}}</Ref> made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison.)

[20] Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake again to them.

[21] But they cried, saying, Crucify him, crucify him.

=== Third time no evil ===

[22] And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath he done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him, and let him go.

[23] And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified. And the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed.

[24] And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.

=== to their will ===

[25] And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was cast into prison, whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus to their will.

==The Cyrenian ==

[26] And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear it after Jesus.

[27] And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him.

===Daughters of Jerusalem ===

[28] But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of [[Jerusalem]], weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.

[29] For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck.

[30] Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.

[31] For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?

[32] And there were also two other, malefactors<Ref name="kakourgos">{{2557}}</Ref>, led with him to be put to death.

[33] And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors<Ref name="kakourgos">{{2557}}</Ref>, one on the right hand, and the other on the left

== Forgive them ==

[34] Then said Jesus, <span style="color:red">'''[[Father]], [[forgive them]]; for they know not what they do.'''</span> And they parted his raiment<Ref name="Roben">{{Roben}}</Ref>, and cast lots.

=== The people ===

[35] And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be [[Christ]], the chosen of God.

=== The soldier ===

[36] And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar,

=== KING OF THE JEWS ===

[37] And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.

[38] And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE [[KING OF THE JEWS]].

=== Malefactors ===

[39] And one of the malefactors<Ref name="kakourgos">{{2557}}</Ref> which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be [[Christ]], save thyself and us.

[40] But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?

[41] And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.

[42] And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.

[43] And Jesus said unto him, <span style="color:red">'''Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.'''</span>

== Darkness and the veil ==

[44] And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a [[darkness]] over all the earth until the ninth hour.

[45] And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.

[46] And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, <span style="color:red">'''Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit:'''</span> and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.

[47] Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a [[righteous]] man.

[48] And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.

[49] And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.

=== Joseph had not consented ===

[50] And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counseller; and he was a good man, and a just:

[51] (The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the [[kingdom of God|kingdom of God]].

=== begged the body ===

[52] This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.

[53] And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid.

[54] And that day was the preparation, and the [[sabbath]] drew on.

[55] And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid.

[56] And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment.
