Jēzus Pilāta priekšā
(Mt 27:1–2, Mt 11–14Lk 23:1–5Jņ 18:28–38)1 Rīta agrumā virspriesteri ar vecajiem un rakstu mācītājiem un visu sinedriju apspriedās un, Jēzu sasējuši, aizveda un nodeva to Pilātam. 2 Pilāts viņam jautāja: “Vai tu esi jūdu Ķēniņš?” Jēzus tam atbildēja: “Tu to saki.” 3 Bet virspriesteri pret viņu cēla daudz apsūdzību. 4 Pilāts viņam jautāja tālāk: “Tu neko neatbildēsi? Redzi, cik daudz lietās viņi tevi apsūdz.” 5 Bet Jēzus vairs neko neatbildēja, tā ka Pilāts brīnījās.
Jēzum piespriež nāves sodu
(Mt 27:15–26Lk 23:13–25Jņ 18:39–19:16)6 Svētkos viņš mēdza viņiem atlaist vienu cietumnieku – to, kuru tie prasīja. 7 Tur bija kāds cietumnieks, vārdā Baraba, kas bija sagūstīts reizē ar citiem, kuri dumpja laikā bija kādu noslepkavojuši. 8 Un ļaužu pūlis devās augšup un lūdza, lai viņš rīkojas tā, kā bija darījis jau agrāk. 9 Bet Pilāts tiem teica: “Vai jūs gribat, lai atlaižu jums jūdu Ķēniņu?” 10 Jo viņš zināja, ka virspriesteri bija nodevuši viņu tam aiz skaudības. 11 Bet virspriesteri bija sakūdījuši ļaužu pūli, lai labāk tiem atlaiž Barabu. 12 Tad Pilāts atkal vērsās pie tiem un jautāja: “Ko lai es daru ar jūdu Ķēniņu? ” 13 Tie sāka kliegt: “Sit viņu krustā!” 14 Bet Pilāts tiem jautāja: “Ko tad sliktu viņš ir izdarījis?” Bet tie kliedza vēl stiprāk: “Sit viņu krustā!” 15 Pilāts, gribēdams ļaužu pūlim iztapt, atlaida tiem Barabu, bet Jēzu lika šaust un nodeva, lai sistu krustā.
Kareivji ņirgājas par Jēzu
(Mt 27:27–31Jņ 19:2–3)16 Kareivji ieveda viņu pārvaldnieka pils pagalmā un sasauca visu sardzes nodaļu. 17 Tie ieģērba viņu purpurā un, nopinuši ērkšķu vainagu, uzlika viņam to galvā. 18 Un tie ņēmās viņu sveicināt: “Esi sveicināts, jūdu Ķēniņ!” 19 Tie sita ar niedri viņam pa galvu, apspļaudīja viņu un, ceļos nokrituši, viņu pielūdza. 20 Un, kad tie bija par viņu izņirgājušies, tie viņam novilka purpura apmetni un apvilka viņa paša drēbes. Tad tie izveda viņu, lai sistu krustā.
Jēzus krustā sišana
(Mt 27:32–44Lk 23:26–43Jņ 19:17–27)21 Viņa krustu tie lika nest kādam kirēnietim Sīmanim, Aleksandra un Rūfa tēvam, kas gāja garām, nākdams no lauka. 22 Un tie veda viņu uz Golgātu, kas tulkojumā: Galvaskausa vieta, 23 un tie deva viņam vīnu ar mirrēm, bet viņš neņēma. 24 Un tie sita viņu krustā un sadalīja viņa drēbes, mezdami par tām kauliņus, kas ko dabūs. 25 Bija trešā stunda, kad viņu sita krustā. 26 Uzraksts par viņa vainu bija: jūdu Ķēniņš. 27 Un līdz ar viņu sita krustā divus laupītājus, vienu pa labo un otru pa kreiso roku. 29 Tie, kas gāja garām, zaimoja viņu, grozīja galvu un teica: “Āā, tempļa nojaucējs un uzcēlējs trijās dienās! 30 Glāb nu sevi pats un kāp no krusta zemē!” 31 Tāpat arī virspriesteri un rakstu mācītāji ņirgājās par viņu, viens otram sacīdami: “Citus viņš glāba, sevi pašu izglābt viņš nevar. 32 Lai Kristus, Israēla ķēniņš, kāpj nu zemē no krusta, ka redzam un ticam!” Un arī tie, kas bija krustā sisti kopā ar viņu, zaimoja viņu.
Jēzus nāve
(Mt 27:45–56Lk 23:44–49Jņ 19:28–30)33 Kad pienāca sestā stunda, tumsa pārklāja zemi līdz devītai stundai. 34 Un devītā stundā Jēzus sauca skaļā balsī: “Ēli, Ēli, lamā sabahtani! ” – tulkojumā: “Mans Dievs, mans Dievs, kādēļ tu mani esi atstājis! ” 35 Daži no tiem, kas tur stāvēja klāt, to dzirdēdami, sacīja: “Redzi, šis sauc Eliju!” 36 Tad kāds pieskrēja un iemērca sūkli etiķī; uzspraudis to niedres galā, tas sniedza viņam padzerties un teica: “Pagaidiet, redzēsim, vai Elija nāks viņu noņemt.” 37 Bet Jēzus skaļi iekliedzās un nomira. 38 Un tempļa priekškars tika pārplēsts divās daļās no augšas līdz pat apakšai. 39 Centurions, kas stāvēja viņam pretī, redzēdams, ka viņš, tā saukdams, bija miris, sacīja: “Patiesi, šis cilvēks bija Dieva Dēls!” 40 Arī kādas sievietes skatījās no tālienes. Starp tām bija Marija Magdalēna un Marija, Jēkaba jaunākā un Jāzepa māte, un Salome – 41 tās, kuras viņam sekoja un kalpoja, kad viņš bija Galilejā, un vēl daudzas citas, kas viņam bija atnākušas līdzi uz Jeruzālemi.
Jēzus guldīšana kapā
(Mt 27:57–61Lk 23:50–56Jņ 19:38–42)42 Un pievakarē, jo bija sagatavošanas diena, tas ir, priekšsabats, 43 Jāzeps no Arimatejas, cienījams sinedrija loceklis, kas arī pats gaidīja Dieva valstību, uzdrošinājās ieiet pie Pilāta un izlūdzās Jēzus miesas. 44 Bet Pilāts izbrīnījās, ka viņš jau ir miris. Pasaucis centurionu, viņš tam jautāja: “Vai viņš jau nomira?” 45 Un, saņēmis ziņu no centuriona, viņš atvēlēja Jāzepam Jēzus miesas. 46 Un tas, nopircis smalku linu audeklu, Jēzu nocēla un ietina audeklā, un ielika viņu kapā, kas bija izcirsts klintī, un kapa ieejai aizvēla priekšā akmeni. 47 Bet Marija Magdalēna un Marija, Jāzepa māte, skatījās, kur viņš tika nolikts.
Jesus before Pilate
(Matthew 27.1Matthew 2Matthew 11-14Luke 23.1-5John 18.28-38)1 Early in the morning the chief priests met hurriedly with the elders, the teachers of the Law, and the whole Council, and made their plans. They put Jesus in chains, led him away, and handed him over to Pilate. 2 Pilate questioned him, “Are you the king of the Jews?”
Jesus answered, “So you say.”
3 The chief priests were accusing Jesus of many things, 4 so Pilate questioned him again, “Aren't you going to answer? Listen to all their accusations!”
5 Again Jesus refused to say a word, and Pilate was amazed.
Jesus Is Sentenced to Death
(Matthew 27.15-26Luke 23.13-25John 18.39—19.16)6 At every Passover Festival Pilate was in the habit of setting free any one prisoner the people asked for. 7 At that time a man named Barabbas was in prison with the rebels who had committed murder in the riot. 8 When the crowd gathered and began to ask Pilate for the usual favor, 9 he asked them, “Do you want me to set free for you the king of the Jews?” 10 He knew very well that the chief priests had handed Jesus over to him because they were jealous.
11 But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to ask, instead, that Pilate set Barabbas free for them. 12 Pilate spoke again to the crowd, “What, then, do you want me to do with the one you call the king of the Jews?”
13 They shouted back, “Crucify him!”
14 “But what crime has he committed?” Pilate asked.
They shouted all the louder, “Crucify him!”
15 Pilate wanted to please the crowd, so he set Barabbas free for them. Then he had Jesus whipped and handed him over to be crucified.
The Soldiers Make Fun of Jesus
(Matthew 27.27-31John 19.2John 3)16 The soldiers took Jesus inside to the courtyard of the governor's palace and called together the rest of the company. 17 They put a purple robe on Jesus, made a crown out of thorny branches, and put it on his head. 18 Then they began to salute him: “Long live the King of the Jews!” 19 They beat him over the head with a stick, spat on him, fell on their knees, and bowed down to him. 20 When they had finished making fun of him, they took off the purple robe and put his own clothes back on him. Then they led him out to crucify him.
Jesus Is Crucified
(Matthew 27.32-44Luke 23.26-43John 19.17-27)21 On the way they met a man named Simon, who was coming into the city from the country, and the soldiers forced him to carry Jesus' cross. (Simon was from Cyrene and was the father of Alexander and Rufus.) 22 They took Jesus to a place called Golgotha, which means “The Place of the Skull.” 23 There they tried to give him wine mixed with a drug called myrrh, but Jesus would not drink it. 24 Then they crucified him and divided his clothes among themselves, throwing dice to see who would get which piece of clothing. 25 It was nine o'clock in the morning when they crucified him. 26 The notice of the accusation against him said: “The King of the Jews.” 27 They also crucified two bandits with Jesus, one on his right and the other on his left.
29 People passing by shook their heads and hurled insults at Jesus: “Aha! You were going to tear down the Temple and build it back up in three days! 30 Now come down from the cross and save yourself!”
31 In the same way the chief priests and the teachers of the Law made fun of Jesus, saying to one another, “He saved others, but he cannot save himself! 32 Let us see the Messiah, the king of Israel, come down from the cross now, and we will believe in him!”
And the two who were crucified with Jesus insulted him also.
The Death of Jesus
(Matthew 27.45-56Luke 23.44-49John 19.28-30)33 At noon the whole country was covered with darkness, which lasted for three hours. 34 At three o'clock Jesus cried out with a loud shout, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, my God, why did you abandon me?”
35 Some of the people there heard him and said, “Listen, he is calling for Elijah!” 36 One of them ran up with a sponge, soaked it in cheap wine, and put it on the end of a stick. Then he held it up to Jesus' lips and said, “Wait! Let us see if Elijah is coming to bring him down from the cross!”
37 With a loud cry Jesus died.
38 The curtain hanging in the Temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. 39 The army officer who was standing there in front of the cross saw how Jesus had died. “This man was really the Son of God!” he said.
40 Some women were there, looking on from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of the younger James and of Joseph, and Salome. 41 They had followed Jesus while he was in Galilee and had helped him. Many other women who had come to Jerusalem with him were there also.
The Burial of Jesus
(Matthew 27.57-61Luke 23.50-56John 19.38-42)42-43 It was toward evening when Joseph of Arimathea arrived. He was a respected member of the Council, who was waiting for the coming of the Kingdom of God. It was Preparation day (that is, the day before the Sabbath), so Joseph went boldly into the presence of Pilate and asked him for the body of Jesus. 44 Pilate was surprised to hear that Jesus was already dead. He called the army officer and asked him if Jesus had been dead a long time. 45 After hearing the officer's report, Pilate told Joseph he could have the body. 46 Joseph bought a linen sheet, took the body down, wrapped it in the sheet, and placed it in a tomb which had been dug out of solid rock. Then he rolled a large stone across the entrance to the tomb. 47 Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joseph were watching and saw where the body of Jesus was placed.
