Dual Panel1Then <5119> Pilate <4091> took <2983> Jesus <2424> and <2532> had him flogged severely <3146>.
2The soldiers <4757> braided <4120> a crown <4735> of <1537> thorns <173> and put <2007> it on <2007> his <846> head <2776>, and <2532> they clothed <4016> him <846> in a <2440> purple <4210> robe <2440>.
3They came up <2064> to <4314> him <846> again and again and <2532> said <3004>, “Hail <5463>, king <935> of the Jews <2453>!” And <2532> they struck <1325> <4475> him <846> repeatedly in the face <4475>.
4Again <3825> Pilate <4091> went out <1831> <1854> and <2532> said <3004> to the Jewish leaders <846>, “Look <1492>, I am bringing <71> him <846> out <1854> to you <5213>, so that <2443> you may know <1097> that <3754> I find <2147> no reason <3762> for an accusation <156> against <1722> him <846>.”
5So <3767> Jesus <2424> came <1831> outside <1854>, wearing <5409> the crown <4735> of thorns <174> and <2532> the purple <4210> robe <2440>. Pilate said <3004> to them <846>, “Look <2400>, here is the man <444>!”
6When <3753> the chief priests <749> and <2532> their officers <5257> saw <1492> him <846>, they shouted out <2905>, “Crucify <4717> him! Crucify <4717> him <846>!” Pilate <4091> said <3004>, “You <5210> take <2983> him <846> and <2532> crucify <4717> him! Certainly <1063> I <1473> find <2147> no reason <3756> for an accusation <156> against <1722> him <846>!”
7The Jewish leaders <2453> replied <611>, “We <2249> have <2192> a law <3551>, and <2532> according to <2596> our law <3551> he ought <3784> to die <599>, because <3754> he claimed <4160> to be <1438> the Son <5207> of God <2316>!”
8When <3753> Pilate <4091> heard <191> what they said, he was <5399> more <3123> afraid <5399> than ever <3123>,
9and <2532> he went back <1525> into <1519> the governor’s residence <4232> and <2532> said <3004> to Jesus <2424>, “Where <4159> do you <4771> come from <1510>?” But <1161> Jesus <2424> gave <1325> him <846> no <3756> answer <612>.
10So <3767> Pilate <4091> said <3004>, “Do you refuse <3756> to speak <2980> to me <1698>? Don’t <3756> you know <1492> I have <2192> the authority <1849> to release <630> you <4571>, and <2532> to crucify <4717> you <4571>?”
11Jesus <2424> replied <611>, “You would have <2192> no <3756> authority <1849> over <2596> me <1700> at all <3762>, unless <1487> <3361> it was <1510> given <1325> to you <4671> from above <509>. Therefore <5124> the one who handed <3860> me <3165> over <3860> to you <4671> is guilty <2192> of greater <3173> sin <266>.”
12From <1537> this point on <5127>, Pilate <4091> tried <2212> to release <630> him <846>. But <1161> the Jewish leaders <2453> shouted out <2905>, “If <1437> you release <630> this man <5126>, you are <1510> no <3756> friend <5384> of Caesar <2541>! Everyone <3956> who claims <4160> to be <1438> a king <935> opposes <483> Caesar <2541>!”
13When <3767> Pilate <4091> heard <191> these <5130> words <3056> he brought <71> Jesus <2424> outside <1854> and <2532> sat down <2523> on <1909> the judgment seat <968> in <1519> the place <5117> called <3004> “The Stone Pavement <3038>” (Gabbatha <1042> in Aramaic <1447>).
14(Now <1161> it was <1510> the day of preparation <3904> for the Passover <3957>, about <5613> noon <5610> <1510> <1623>.) Pilate said <3004> to the Jewish leaders <2453>, “Look <1492>, here is your <5216> king <935>!”
15Then <3767> they shouted out <2905>, “Away <142> with him! Away <142> with him! Crucify <4717> him <846>!” Pilate <4091> asked <3004>, “Shall I crucify <4717> your <5216> king <935>?” The high priests <749> replied <611>, “We have <2192> no <3756> king <935> except <1487> <3361> Caesar <2541>!”
16Then <5119> Pilate handed <3860> him <846> over <3860> to them <846> to <2443> be crucified <4717>. So <3767> they took <3880> Jesus <2424>,
17and <2532> carrying <941> his own <1438> cross <4716> he went out <1831> to <1519> the place called <3004> “The Place <5117> of <2898> the Skull <2898>” (called <3004> in Aramaic <1447> Golgotha <1115>).
18There <3699> they crucified <4717> him <846> along <2532> with <3326> two <1417> others <243>, one on each side <1782> <2532> <1782>, with Jesus <2424> in the middle <3319>.
19Pilate <4091> also <2532> had <5087> a notice <5102> written <1125> and <2532> fastened <5087> to <1909> the cross <4716>, which read <1125>: “Jesus <2424> the Nazarene <3480>, the king <935> of the Jews <2453>.”
20Thus <3767> many <4183> of the Jewish <2453> residents of Jerusalem read <314> this notice, because <3754> the place <5117> where <3699> Jesus <2424> was crucified <4717> was <1510> near <1451> the city <4172>, and <2532> the notice was written <1125> in Aramaic <1447>, Latin <4515>, and Greek <1676>.
21Then <3767> the chief priests <749> of the Jews <2453> said <3004> to Pilate <4091>, “Do <1125> not <3361> write <1125>, ‘The king <935> of the Jews <2453>,’ but <235> rather, ‘This man <1565> said <2036>, I am <1510> king <935> of the Jews <2453>.’”
22Pilate <4091> answered <611>, “What <3739> I have written <1125>, I have written <1125>.”
23Now <3767> when <3753> the soldiers <4757> crucified <4717> Jesus <2424>, they took <2983> his <846> clothes <2440> and <2532> made <4160> four <5064> shares <3313>, one for each <1538> soldier <4757>, and <2532> the tunic <5509> remained. (Now <1161> the tunic <5509> was seamless <729>, woven from <1537> top <509> to bottom as <1223> a single piece <3650>.)
24So <3767> the soldiers said <3004> to <4314> one another <240>, “Let’s <4977> not <3361> tear <4977> it <846>, but <235> throw dice <2975> to see who <5101> will get it <1510>.” This took place to fulfill <4137> the scripture <1124> that says, “They divided <1266> my <3450> garments <2440> among them <1438>, and <2532> for <1909> my <3450> clothing <2441> they threw <906> dice <2819>.” So <3303> <3767> the soldiers <4757> did <4160> these things <5023>.
25Now <1161> standing <2476> beside <3844> Jesus <2424>’ cross <4716> were his <846> mother <3384>, his <846> mother’s <3384> sister <79>, Mary <3137> the wife of Clopas <2832>, and <2532> Mary <3137> Magdalene <3094>.
26So <3767> when Jesus <2424> saw <1492> his mother <3384> and <2532> the disciple <3101> whom <3739> he loved <25> standing <3936> there, he said <3004> to his mother <3384>, “Woman <1135>, look <1492>, here is your <4675> son <5207>!”
27He <3004> then <1534> said <3004> to his disciple <3101>, “Look <1492>, here is your <4675> mother <3384>!” From <575> that <1565> very time <5610> the disciple <3101> took <2983> her <846> into <1519> his own home <2398>.
28After <3326> this <5124> Jesus <2424>, realizing <1492> that <3754> by this time <2235> everything <3956> was completed <5055>, said <3004> (in order <2443> to fulfill <5048> the scripture <1124>), “I am thirsty <1372>!”
29A jar <4632> full <3324> of sour wine <3690> was there, so they put a sponge <4699> soaked <3324> in sour wine <3690> on a branch of hyssop <5301> and lifted it to his <846> mouth <4750>.
30When <3753> he had received <2983> the sour wine <3690>, Jesus <2424> said <2036>, “It is completed <5055>!” Then <2532> he bowed <2827> his head <2776> and gave up <3860> his spirit <4151>.
31Then <3767>, because <1893> it was <1510> the day of preparation <3904>, so that <2443> the bodies <4983> should <3306> not <3361> stay <3306> on <1909> the <3588> crosses <4716> on <1722> the <3588> Sabbath <4521> (for <1063> that <1565> Sabbath <4521> was <1510> an especially important <3173> one <2250>), the Jewish leaders asked <2065> Pilate <4091> to have <2608> the victims <846>’ legs <4628> broken <2608> and <2532> the bodies taken down <142>.
32So <3767> the soldiers <4757> came <2064> and <2532> broke <2608> the legs <4628> of the two men who had been crucified with <4957> Jesus <846>, first <4413> the one and <2532> then the other <243>.
33But <1161> when <5613> they came <2064> to Jesus <2424> and saw <1492> that he <846> was <2348> already <2235> dead <2348>, they did <2608> not <3756> break <2608> his <846> legs <4628>.
34But <235> one <1520> of the soldiers <4757> pierced <3572> his <846> side <4125> with a spear <3057>, and <2532> blood <129> and <2532> water <5204> flowed out <1831> immediately <2117>.
35And <2532> the person who saw <3708> it has testified <3140> (and <2532> his <846> testimony <3141> is <1510> true <228>, and <2532> he <1565> knows <1492> that <3754> he is telling <3004> the truth <227>), so that <2443> you <5210> also <2532> may believe <4100>.
36For <1063> these things <5023> happened <1096> so that <2443> the scripture <1124> would be fulfilled <4137>, “Not <3756> a bone <3747> of his <846> will be broken <4937>.”
37And <2532> again <3825> another <2087> scripture <1124> says <3004>, “They will look <3700> on <1519> the one whom <3739> they have pierced <1574>.”
38After <3326> this <3778>, Joseph <2501> of <575> Arimathea <707>, a disciple <3101> of Jesus <2424> (but <1161> secretly <2928>, because <1223> he feared <5401> the <3588> Jewish <2453> leaders), asked <2065> Pilate <4091> if he could remove <142> the body <4983> of Jesus <2424>. Pilate <4091> gave <2010> him permission <2010>, so <3767> he went <2064> and <2532> took <142> the <3588> body <4983> away <142>.
39Nicodemus <3530>, the man who had previously <4413> come <2064> to <4314> Jesus <846> at night <3571>, accompanied Joseph, carrying <5342> a mixture <3395> of myrrh <4666> and <2532> aloes <250> weighing about <5613> seventy-five <1540> pounds <3046>.
40Then <3767> they took <2983> Jesus <2424>’ body <4983> and <2532> wrapped <1210> it <846>, with <3326> the aromatic spices <759>, in strips of linen cloth <3608> according to <2531> Jewish <2453> burial <1779> customs <1485>.
41Now <1161> at <1722> the place <5117> where <3699> Jesus was crucified <4717> there was <1510> a garden <2779>, and <2532> in <1722> the garden <2779> was <1510> a new <2537> tomb <3419> where <3739> no one <3762> had <5087> yet <3764> been buried <5087>.
42And so <3767>, because <1223> it was the Jewish <2453> day of preparation <3904> and the tomb <3419> was <1510> nearby <1451>, they placed <5087> Jesus <2424>’ body there.
