- 1When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:Πρωΐας δὲ γενομένης συμβούλιον ἔλαβον πάντες οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι τοῦ λαοῦ κατὰ τοῦ Ἰησοῦ ὥστε θανατῶσαι αὐτόν
- 2And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.καὶ δήσαντες αὐτὸν ἀπήγαγον καὶ ⸀παρέδωκαν Πιλάτῳ τῷ ἡγεμόνι
- 3Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,Τότε ἰδὼν Ἰούδας ὁ ⸀παραδιδοὺς αὐτὸν ὅτι κατεκρίθη ⸀ἔστρεψεν τὰ τριάκοντα ἀργύρια τοῖς ἀρχιερεῦσιν ⸀καὶ πρεσβυτέροις
- 4Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.λέγων Ἥμαρτον παραδοὺς αἷμα οἱ δὲ εἶπαν Τί πρὸς ἡμᾶς σὺ ⸀ὄψῃ
- 5And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.καὶ ῥίψας τὰ ἀργύρια ⸂εἰς τὸν ναὸν⸃ ἀνεχώρησεν καὶ ἀπελθὼν ἀπήγξατο
- 6And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.οἱ δὲ ἀρχιερεῖς λαβόντες τὰ ἀργύρια εἶπαν Οὐκ βαλεῖν αὐτὰ εἰς τὸν ἐπεὶ τιμὴ αἵματός ἐστιν
- 7And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.συμβούλιον δὲ λαβόντες ἠγόρασαν ἐξ αὐτῶν τὸν Ἀγρὸν τοῦ Κεραμέως εἰς ταφὴν τοῖς ξένοις
- 8Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day.διὸ ἐκλήθη ὁ ἀγρὸς ἐκεῖνος Ἀγρὸς Αἵματος ἕως τῆς σήμερον
- 9Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;τότε ἐπληρώθη τὸ ῥηθὲν διὰ τοῦ προφήτου λέγοντος Καὶ ἔλαβον τὰ τριάκοντα ἀργύρια τὴν τιμὴν τοῦ τετιμημένου ὃν ἐτιμήσαντο ἀπὸ υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ
- 10And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.καὶ ἔδωκαν αὐτὰ εἰς τὸν ἀγρὸν τοῦ κεραμέως καθὰ συνέταξέν μοι κύριος
- 11And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest.Ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς ⸀ἐστάθη ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ ἡγεμόνος καὶ ἐπηρώτησεν αὐτὸν ὁ ἡγεμὼν λέγων Σὺ εἶ ὁ βασιλεὺς τῶν Ἰουδαίων ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς ⸀ἔφη Σὺ λέγεις
- 12And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.καὶ ἐν τῷ κατηγορεῖσθαι αὐτὸν ὑπὸ τῶν ἀρχιερέων ⸀καὶ πρεσβυτέρων οὐδὲν ἀπεκρίνατο
- 13Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee?τότε λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Πιλᾶτος Οὐκ ἀκούεις πόσα σου καταμαρτυροῦσιν
- 14And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly.καὶ οὐκ ἀπεκρίθη αὐτῷ πρὸς οὐδὲ ἓν ῥῆμα ὥστε θαυμάζειν τὸν ἡγεμόνα λίαν
- 15Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would.Κατὰ δὲ ἑορτὴν ὁ ἡγεμὼν ἀπολύειν ἕνα τῷ ὄχλῳ δέσμιον ὃν ἤθελον
- 16And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.εἶχον δὲ τότε δέσμιον ἐπίσημον λεγόμενον ⸀Ἰησοῦν Βαραββᾶν
- 17Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ?συνηγμένων οὖν αὐτῶν εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Πιλᾶτος Τίνα θέλετε ἀπολύσω ὑμῖν ⸂Ἰησοῦν τὸν⸃ Βαραββᾶν ἢ Ἰησοῦν τὸν λεγόμενον χριστόν
- 18For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.γὰρ ὅτι διὰ φθόνον παρέδωκαν αὐτόν
- 19When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.Καθημένου δὲ αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τοῦ βήματος ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς αὐτὸν ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ λέγουσα Μηδὲν σοὶ καὶ τῷ δικαίῳ ἐκείνῳ πολλὰ γὰρ ἔπαθον σήμερον κατ’ ὄναρ δι’ αὐτόν
- 20But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.Οἱ δὲ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι ἔπεισαν τοὺς ὄχλους ἵνα αἰτήσωνται τὸν Βαραββᾶν τὸν δὲ Ἰησοῦν ἀπολέσωσιν
- 21The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas.ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ ἡγεμὼν εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Τίνα θέλετε ἀπὸ τῶν δύο ἀπολύσω ὑμῖν οἱ δὲ εἶπαν ⸀Τὸν Βαραββᾶν
- 22Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.λέγει αὐτοῖς ὁ Πιλᾶτος Τί οὖν ποιήσω Ἰησοῦν τὸν λεγόμενον χριστόν ⸀λέγουσιν πάντες Σταυρωθήτω
- 23And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.ὁ ⸀δὲ ἔφη Τί γὰρ κακὸν ἐποίησεν οἱ δὲ περισσῶς ἔκραζον λέγοντες Σταυρωθήτω
- 24When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.ἰδὼν δὲ ὁ Πιλᾶτος ὅτι οὐδὲν ὠφελεῖ ἀλλὰ μᾶλλον θόρυβος γίνεται λαβὼν ὕδωρ ἀπενίψατο τὰς χεῖρας ⸀ἀπέναντι τοῦ ὄχλου λέγων εἰμι ἀπὸ τοῦ ⸀αἵματος τούτου ὑμεῖς ὄψεσθε
- 25Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς πᾶς ὁ λαὸς εἶπεν Τὸ αἷμα αὐτοῦ ἐφ’ ἡμᾶς καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ τέκνα ἡμῶν
- 26Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.τότε ἀπέλυσεν αὐτοῖς τὸν Βαραββᾶν τὸν δὲ Ἰησοῦν φραγελλώσας παρέδωκεν ἵνα σταυρωθῇ
- 27Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.Τότε οἱ στρατιῶται τοῦ ἡγεμόνος παραλαβόντες τὸν Ἰησοῦν εἰς τὸ πραιτώριον συνήγαγον ἐπ’ αὐτὸν ὅλην τὴν σπεῖραν
- 28And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.καὶ ἐκδύσαντες αὐτὸν ⸂χλαμύδα κοκκίνην περιέθηκαν αὐτῷ⸃
- 29And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon 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!καὶ πλέξαντες στέφανον ἐξ ἀκανθῶν ἐπέθηκαν ἐπὶ ⸂τῆς κεφαλῆς⸃ αὐτοῦ καὶ κάλαμον ⸂ἐν τῇ δεξιᾷ⸃ αὐτοῦ καὶ γονυπετήσαντες ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ ⸀ἐνέπαιξαν αὐτῷ λέγοντες Χαῖρε ⸀βασιλεῦ τῶν Ἰουδαίων
- 30And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head.καὶ ἐμπτύσαντες εἰς αὐτὸν ἔλαβον τὸν κάλαμον καὶ ἔτυπτον εἰς τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ
- 31And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.καὶ ὅτε ἐνέπαιξαν αὐτῷ ἐξέδυσαν αὐτὸν τὴν χλαμύδα καὶ ἐνέδυσαν αὐτὸν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀπήγαγον αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ σταυρῶσαι
- 32And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross.Ἐξερχόμενοι δὲ εὗρον ἄνθρωπον Κυρηναῖον ὀνόματι Σίμωνα τοῦτον ἠγγάρευσαν ἵνα ἄρῃ τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ
- 33And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,Καὶ ἐλθόντες εἰς τόπον λεγόμενον Γολγοθᾶ ὅ ἐστιν ⸂Κρανίου Τόπος λεγόμενος⸃
- 34They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.ἔδωκαν αὐτῷ πιεῖν ⸀οἶνον μετὰ χολῆς μεμιγμένον καὶ γευσάμενος οὐκ ⸀ἠθέλησεν πιεῖν
- 35And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.σταυρώσαντες δὲ αὐτὸν διεμερίσαντο τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ βάλλοντες κλῆρον
- 36And sitting down they watched him there;καὶ καθήμενοι ἐτήρουν αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ
- 37And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.καὶ ἐπέθηκαν ἐπάνω τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ τὴν αἰτίαν αὐτοῦ γεγραμμένην Οὗτός ἐστιν Ἰησοῦς ὁ βασιλεὺς τῶν Ἰουδαίων
- 38Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.Τότε σταυροῦνται σὺν αὐτῷ δύο λῃσταί εἷς ἐκ δεξιῶν καὶ εἷς ἐξ εὐωνύμων
- 39And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,οἱ δὲ παραπορευόμενοι ἐβλασφήμουν αὐτὸν κινοῦντες τὰς κεφαλὰς αὐτῶν
- 40And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.καὶ λέγοντες Ὁ καταλύων τὸν ναὸν καὶ ἐν τρισὶν ἡμέραις οἰκοδομῶν σεαυτόν εἰ υἱὸς εἶ τοῦ θεοῦ ⸀κατάβηθι ἀπὸ τοῦ σταυροῦ
- 41Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,ὁμοίως ⸀καὶ οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς ἐμπαίζοντες μετὰ τῶν γραμματέων καὶ ⸀πρεσβυτέρων ἔλεγον
- 42He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.Ἄλλους ἑαυτὸν οὐ δύναται ⸀βασιλεὺς Ἰσραήλ ἐστιν καταβάτω νῦν ἀπὸ τοῦ σταυροῦ καὶ πιστεύσομεν ἐπ’ ⸀αὐτόν
- 43He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.πέποιθεν ἐπὶ τὸν θεόν ῥυσάσθω ⸀νῦν εἰ θέλει αὐτόν εἶπεν γὰρ ὅτι Θεοῦ εἰμι υἱός
- 44The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.τὸ δ’ αὐτὸ καὶ οἱ λῃσταὶ οἱ ⸀σὺν αὐτῷ ὠνείδιζον αὐτόν
- 45Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.Ἀπὸ δὲ ἕκτης ὥρας σκότος ἐγένετο ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἕως ὥρας
- 46And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?περὶ δὲ τὴν ὥραν ⸀ἀνεβόησεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς φωνῇ μεγάλῃ λέγων ⸂Ἠλὶ ἠλὶ⸃ σαβαχθάνι τοῦτ’ ἔστιν Θεέ μου θεέ μου ἱνατί με ἐγκατέλιπες
- 47Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.δὲ τῶν ἐκεῖ ⸀ἑστηκότων ἀκούσαντες ἔλεγον ὅτι φωνεῖ οὗτος
- 48And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.καὶ εὐθέως δραμὼν εἷς ἐξ αὐτῶν καὶ λαβὼν σπόγγον τε ὄξους καὶ περιθεὶς καλάμῳ ἐπότιζεν αὐτόν
- 49The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.οἱ δὲ ⸀ἔλεγον Ἄφες ἴδωμεν εἰ ἔρχεται ⸀αὐτόν
- 50Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς πάλιν κράξας φωνῇ μεγάλῃ ἀφῆκεν τὸ πνεῦμα
- 51And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;καὶ ἰδοὺ τὸ καταπέτασμα τοῦ ναοῦ ἐσχίσθη ⸂ἀπ’ ἄνωθεν ἕως κάτω εἰς δύο⸃ καὶ ἡ γῆ ἐσείσθη καὶ αἱ πέτραι ἐσχίσθησαν
- 52And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,καὶ τὰ μνημεῖα ἀνεῴχθησαν καὶ πολλὰ σώματα τῶν ἁγίων ⸀ἠγέρθησαν
- 53And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.καὶ ἐξελθόντες ἐκ τῶν μνημείων μετὰ τὴν ἔγερσιν αὐτοῦ εἰσῆλθον εἰς τὴν ἁγίαν πόλιν καὶ ἐνεφανίσθησαν πολλοῖς
- 54Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.Ὁ δὲ καὶ οἱ μετ’ αὐτοῦ τηροῦντες τὸν Ἰησοῦν ἰδόντες τὸν σεισμὸν καὶ τὰ ⸀γενόμενα σφόδρα λέγοντες Ἀληθῶς ⸂θεοῦ υἱὸς⸃ ἦν οὗτος
- 55And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:Ἦσαν δὲ ἐκεῖ γυναῖκες πολλαὶ ἀπὸ μακρόθεν θεωροῦσαι αἵτινες ἠκολούθησαν τῷ Ἰησοῦ ἀπὸ τῆς Γαλιλαίας διακονοῦσαι αὐτῷ
- 56Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's children.ἐν αἷς ἦν Μαρία ἡ Μαγδαληνὴ καὶ Μαρία ἡ τοῦ Ἰακώβου καὶ ⸀Ἰωσὴφ μήτηρ καὶ ἡ μήτηρ τῶν υἱῶν Ζεβεδαίου
- 57When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple:δὲ γενομένης ἦλθεν ἄνθρωπος πλούσιος ἀπὸ τοὔνομα Ἰωσήφ ὃς καὶ αὐτὸς ⸀ἐμαθητεύθη τῷ Ἰησοῦ
- 58He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.οὗτος προσελθὼν τῷ Πιλάτῳ ᾐτήσατο τὸ σῶμα τοῦ Ἰησοῦ τότε ὁ Πιλᾶτος ἐκέλευσεν ⸀ἀποδοθῆναι
- 59And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,καὶ λαβὼν τὸ σῶμα ὁ Ἰωσὴφ ἐνετύλιξεν ⸀αὐτὸ σινδόνι καθαρᾷ
- 60And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.καὶ ἔθηκεν αὐτὸ ἐν τῷ καινῷ αὐτοῦ μνημείῳ ὃ ἐλατόμησεν ἐν τῇ πέτρᾳ καὶ προσκυλίσας λίθον μέγαν τῇ θύρᾳ τοῦ μνημείου ἀπῆλθεν
- 61And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.ἦν δὲ ἐκεῖ ἡ Μαγδαληνὴ καὶ ἡ ἄλλη Μαρία καθήμεναι ἀπέναντι τοῦ τάφου
- 62Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,Τῇ δὲ ἐπαύριον ἥτις ἐστὶν μετὰ τὴν παρασκευήν συνήχθησαν οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ Φαρισαῖοι πρὸς Πιλᾶτον
- 63Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.λέγοντες Κύριε ὅτι ἐκεῖνος ὁ πλάνος εἶπεν ἔτι ζῶν Μετὰ τρεῖς ἡμέρας ἐγείρομαι
- 64Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first.κέλευσον οὖν ἀσφαλισθῆναι τὸν τάφον ἕως τῆς τρίτης ἡμέρας μήποτε ἐλθόντες οἱ μαθηταὶ ⸀αὐτοῦ κλέψωσιν αὐτὸν καὶ εἴπωσιν τῷ λαῷ Ἠγέρθη ἀπὸ τῶν νεκρῶν καὶ ἔσται ἡ ἐσχάτη πλάνη χείρων τῆς πρώτης
- 65Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as ye can.⸀ἔφη αὐτοῖς ὁ Πιλᾶτος Ἔχετε κουστωδίαν ὑπάγετε ἀσφαλίσασθε ὡς
- 66So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch.οἱ δὲ πορευθέντες ἠσφαλίσαντο τὸν τάφον σφραγίσαντες τὸν λίθον μετὰ τῆς κουστωδίας
