1THEN THE whole assembly of them got up and conducted [Jesus] before Pilate.
2And they began to accuse Him, asserting, We found this Man perverting (misleading, corrupting, and turning away) our nation and forbidding to pay tribute to Caesar, saying that He Himself is Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One), a King!
3So Pilate asked Him, Are You the King of the Jews? And He answered him, [It is just as] you say. [I AM.]
4And Pilate said to the chief priests and the throngs, I find no guilt {or} crime in this Man.
5But they were urgent {and} emphatic, saying, He stirs up {and} excites the people, teaching throughout all Judea--from Galilee, where He began, even to this place.
6Upon hearing this, Pilate asked whether the Man was a Galilean.
7And when he found out [certainly] that He belonged to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent Him up to Herod [a higher authority], who was also in Jerusalem in those days.
8Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad, for he had eagerly desired to see Him for a long time because of what he had heard concerning Him, and he was hoping to witness some sign (some striking evidence or spectacular performance) done by Him.
9So he asked Him many questions, but He made no reply.
10Meanwhile, the chief priests and the scribes stood by, continuing vehemently {and} violently to accuse Him.
11And Herod, with his soldiers, treated Him with contempt and scoffed at {and} ridiculed Him; then, dressing Him up in bright {and} gorgeous apparel, he sent Him back to Pilate.
12And that very day Herod and Pilate became friends with each other--[though] they had been at enmity before this.
13Pilate then called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
14And said to them, You brought this Man before me as One Who was perverting {and} misleading {and} turning away {and} corrupting the people; and behold, after examining Him before you, I have not found any offense (crime or guilt) in this Man in regard to your accusations against Him;
15No, nor indeed did Herod, for he sent Him back to us; behold, He has done nothing deserving of death.
16I will therefore chastise Him {and} deliver Him amended (reformed, taught His lesson) and release Him.
17{For it was necessary for him to release to them one prisoner at the Feast.}
18But they all together raised a deep cry [from the depths of their throats], saying, Away with this Man! Release to us Barabbas!
19He was a man who had been thrown into prison for raising a riot in the city, and for murder.
20Once more Pilate called to them, wishing to release Jesus;
21But they kept shouting out, Crucify, crucify Him!
22A third time he said to them, Why? What wrong has He done? I have found [no offense or crime or guilt] in Him nothing deserving of death; I will therefore chastise Him [in order to teach Him better] and release Him.
23But they were insistent {and} urgent, demanding with loud cries that He should be crucified. And their voices prevailed (accomplished their purpose).
24And Pilate gave sentence, that what they asked should be done.
25So he released the man who had been thrown into prison for riot and murder, for whom they continued to ask, but Jesus he delivered up to be done with as they willed.
26And as they led Him away, they seized one Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, and laid on him the cross and made him carry it behind Jesus.
27And there accompanied [Jesus] a great multitude of the people, [including] women who bewailed and lamented Him.
28But Jesus, turning toward them, said, Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
29For behold, the days are coming during which they will say, Blessed (happy, fortunate, and to be envied) are the barren, and the wombs that have not borne, and the breasts that have never nursed [babies]!
30Then they will begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us! and to the hills, Cover (conceal, hide) us!
31For if they do these things when the timber is green, what will happen when it is dry?
32Two others also, who were criminals, were led away to be executed with Him.
33And when they came to the place which is called The Skull [Latin: Calvary; Hebrew: Golgotha], there they crucified Him, and [along with] the criminals, one on the right and one on the left.
34And Jesus prayed, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. And they divided His garments {and} distributed them by casting lots for them.
35Now the people stood by [calmly and leisurely] watching; but the rulers scoffed {and} sneered (turned up their noses) at Him, saying, He rescued others [from death]; let Him now rescue Himself, if He is the Christ (the Messiah) of God, His Chosen One!
36The soldiers also ridiculed {and} made sport of Him, coming up and offering Him vinegar (a sour wine mixed with water)
37And saying, If you are the King of the Jews, save (rescue) Yourself [from death].
38For there was also an inscription above Him {in letters of Greek and Latin and Hebrew}: This is the King of the Jews.
39One of the criminals who was suspended kept up a railing at Him, saying, Are You not the Christ (the Messiah)? Rescue Yourself and us [from death]!
40But the other one reproved him, saying, Do you not even fear God, seeing you yourself are under the same sentence of condemnation {and} suffering the same penalty?
41And we indeed suffer it justly, receiving the due reward of our actions; but this Man has done nothing out of the way [nothing strange or eccentric or perverse or unreasonable].
42Then he said to Jesus, {Lord,} remember me when You come in Your kingly glory!
43And He answered him, Truly I tell you, today you shall be with Me in Paradise.
44It was now about the sixth hour (midday), and darkness enveloped the whole land {and} earth until the ninth hour (about three o'clock in the afternoon),
45While the sun's light faded {or} {was darkened}; and the curtain [of the Holy of Holies] of the temple was torn in two.
46And Jesus, crying out with a loud voice, said, Father, into Your hands I commit My spirit! And with these words, He expired.
47Now the centurion, having seen what had taken place, recognized God {and} thanked {and} praised Him, and said, Indeed, without question, this Man was upright (just and innocent)!
48And all the throngs that had gathered to see this spectacle, when they saw what had taken place, returned to their homes, beating their breasts.
49And all the acquaintances of [Jesus] and the women who had followed Him from Galilee stood at a distance and watched these things.
50Now notice, there was a man named Joseph from the Jewish town of Arimathea. He was a member of the council (the Sanhedrin), and a good (upright, advantageous) man, and righteous (in right standing with God and man),
51Who had not agreed with {or} assented to the purpose and action of the others; and he was expecting {and} waiting for the kingdom of God.
52This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.
53Then he took it down and rolled it up in a linen cloth for swathing dead bodies and laid Him in a rock-hewn tomb, where no one had ever yet been laid.
54It was the day of Preparation [for the Sabbath], and the Sabbath was dawning (approaching).
55The women who had come with [Jesus] from Galilee followed closely and saw the tomb and how His body was laid.
56Then they went back and made ready spices and ointments (perfumes). On the Sabbath day they rested in accordance with the commandment.
