1 Un tūlīt rīta agrumā augstie priesteri ar vecajiem un rakstu mācītājiem un visa augstā tiesa taisīja spriedumu un, sasējuši Jēzu, lika To aizvest un nodeva Viņu Pilātam. 2 Un Pilāts Viņam jautāja: "Vai Tu esi Jūdu ķēniņš?" Un Viņš atbildēdams tam saka: "Tu to saki." 3 Un augstie priesteri Viņu smagi apsūdzēja. 4 Bet Pilāts Viņam atkal vaicāja: "Vai Tu nekā neatbildi? Redzi, cik smagi tie Tevi apsūdz!" 5 Bet Jēzus neatbildēja vairāk nekā, tā ka Pilāts brīnījās. 6 Bet uz svētkiem tas viņiem mēdza atlaist vienu cietumnieku, kuru tie prasīja. 7 Bet tur bija kāds, vārdā Baraba, sagūstīts ar dumpiniekiem, kas dumpī bija izdarījuši slepkavību. 8 Un ļaudis, augšā sanākuši, sāka prasīt, lai tiem tā darītu, kā parasts. 9 Bet Pilāts tiem atbildēja un sacīja: "Vai jūs gribat, ka es jums atlaižu Jūdu ķēniņu?" 10 Jo viņš zināja, ka augstie priesteri To bija nodevuši aiz skaudības. 11 Bet augstie priesteri sakūdīja ļaudis, lai labāk tiem atlaistu Barabu. 12 Bet Pilāts atkal griezās pie tiem un sacīja: "Ko tad lai daru ar To, ko jūs saucat par Jūdu ķēniņu?" 13 Bet tie atkal brēca: "Sit Viņu krustā!" 14 Bet Pilāts tiem sacīja: "Ko tad Viņš ļaunu darījis?" Bet tie vēl vairāk brēca: "Sit Viņu krustā!" 15 Bet Pilāts, gribēdams ļaudīm iztapt, tiem atlaida Barabu un Jēzu lika šaust un nodeva, lai sistu krustā. 16 Bet karavīri Viņu noveda pilī, tas ir, pārvaldnieka namā, un sasauca visu pulku. 17 Un tie Viņam apvelk purpura apmetni un, nopinuši ērkšķu vainagu, lika Viņam to galvā 18 un sāka Viņu sveicināt: "Sveiks, Jūdu ķēniņ!" 19 Un sita Viņam pa galvu ar niedri, un Viņu apspļaudīja, un ceļus locīja un Viņu pielūdza. 20 Un, kad tie Viņu bija apsmējuši, tad Viņam novilka purpura apmetni un Viņam apvilka Viņa paša drēbes, un Viņu aizveda, lai sistu krustā. 21 Un tie piespieda kādu, kas, no lauka nākdams, garām gāja, Sīmani no Kirēnas, Aleksandra un Rufa tēvu, lai tas nestu Viņa krustu. 22 Un tie Viņu noveda Golgatā, kas tiek tulkots: pieres vieta. 23 Un Viņam deva dzert vīnu, sajauktu ar mirrēm, bet Viņš to nepieņēma. 24 Un tie Viņu sita krustā un izdalīja savā starpā Viņa drēbes, mezdami kauliņus par tām, ko kurš dabūtu. 25 Un tā bija trešā stunda, kad Viņu sita krustā. 26 Un bija likts uzraksts Viņa vainas apzīmēšanai: JŪDU ĶĒNIŅŠ. 27 Un līdz ar Viņu sita krustā divi slepkavas, vienu Viņam pa labo, otru pa kreiso roku. 28 Un raksti ir piepildīti, kas saka: "Viņš tika ļaundariem pielīdzināts." 29 Un tie, kas gāja garām, Viņu zaimoja, kratīja galvas un sacīja: "Redzi, Tempļa noplēsēj un uztaisītāj trijās dienās, 30 palīdzies pats Sev un kāp no krusta zemē." 31 Tāpat arī augstie priesteri ar rakstu mācītājiem Viņu apsmēja un sacīja: "Citus Viņš ir pestījis un Sevi pašu Viņš nevar pestīt. 32 Lai nu Kristus, Israēla ķēniņš, no krusta nokāpj, ka mēs redzam un ticam." Un arī tie, kas līdz ar Viņu bija krustā sisti, Viņu zaimoja. 33 Un ap sesto stundu palika tumšs pār visu zemi līdz devītai stundai. 34 Un ap devīto stundu Jēzus stiprā balsī brēca, saukdams: "Eloī, Eloī, lamā zabahtani?" Tas ir tulkots: "Mans Dievs, Mans Dievs, kāpēc Tu Mani esi atstājis?" 35 Un daži no tiem, kas tur klāt stāvēja, to dzirdēdami, sacīja: "Redzi, Viņš sauc Ēliju." 36 Bet viens aizskrēja, pildīja sūkli ar etiķi un to lika uz niedri, un deva Viņam dzert, sacīdams: "Pagaidiet, redzēsim, vai Ēlija nāks un Viņu noņems." 37 Bet Jēzus stiprā balsī iekliedzās un nomira. 38 Un priekškars Templī pārplīsa divos gabalos no augšas līdz zemei. 39 Bet virsnieks, kas tur klāt stāvēja Viņam pretī, redzēdams, ka Viņš tādā veidā bija miris, sacīja: "Patiesi, šis cilvēks bija Dieva Dēls." 40 Un tur bija arī sievas, kas no tālienes skatījās; starp tām bija Marija Magdalēna un Marija, Jēkaba jaunākā un Jāzepa māte, un Salome. 41 Tās, kad Viņš bija Galilejā, Viņam bija gājušas pakaļ un Viņam kalpojušas un daudz citas, kas līdz ar Viņu bija nākušas uz Jeruzālemi. 42 Kad jau vakars metās un tā kā bija sataisāmā diena, tas ir, sabata priekšvakars, 43 Jāzeps no Arimatijas, cienīts runas kungs, kas pats arīdzan gaidīja Dieva valstību, iegāja droši pie Pilāta un izlūdzās Jēzus miesas. 44 Bet Pilāts brīnījās, ka Viņš jau bija nomiris, un, virsnieku aicinājis, tam jautāja, vai jau ilgi, kamēr Viņš miris? 45 Un, to no virsnieka dabūjis zināt, viņš atvēlēja Jāzepam Jēzus miesas. 46 Un tas, nopircis smalku audeklu, Jēzu noņēma un ietina tai audeklā un ielika Viņu kapā, kas klintī bija izcirsts, un akmeni pievēla pie kapa durvīm. 47 Bet Marija Magdalēna un Marija, Jozēta māte, skatījās, kur Viņš tapa nolikts.
1 And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate. 2 And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said unto him, Thou sayest it . 3 And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing. 4 And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against thee. 5 But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled. 6 Now at that feast he released unto them one prisoner, whomsoever they desired. 7 And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection. 8 And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto them. 9 But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews? 10 For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy. 11 But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them. 12 And Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will ye then that I shall do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews? 13 And they cried out again, Crucify him. 14 Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.
15 ¶ And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him , to be crucified. 16 And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Prætorium; and they call together the whole band. 17 And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head , 18 And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews! 19 And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him. 20 And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him. 21 And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross. 22 And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull. 23 And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not. 24 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take. 25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him. 26 And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS. 27 And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left. 28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors. 29 And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, 30 Save thyself, and come down from the cross. 31 Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save. 32 Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him. 33 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. 34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? 35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard it , said, Behold, he calleth Elias. 36 And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take him down. 37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost. 38 And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.
39 ¶ And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God. 40 There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome; 41 (Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him;) and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem.
42 ¶ And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath, 43 Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus. 44 And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead. 45 And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph. 46 And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre. 47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.
