1Early in the morning the chief priests with the elders and scribes and the whole Council, immediately held a consultation; and binding Jesus, they led Him away and delivered Him to Pilate.1As soon as it was morning, the high priests convened a meeting with the elders and scribes and the whole Council. They bound Jesus with chains, led him away, and handed him over to Pilate.
2Pilate questioned Him, "Are You the King of the Jews?" And He answered him, "It is as you say."2Pilate asked him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" Jesus answered him, "You say so."
3The chief priests began to accuse Him harshly.3The high priests kept accusing him of many things.
4Then Pilate questioned Him again, saying, "Do You not answer? See how many charges they bring against You!"4So Pilate asked him again, "Don't you have any answer? Look how many accusations they're bringing against you!"
5But Jesus made no further answer; so Pilate was amazed.5But since Jesus no longer answered, Pilate was astonished.
6Now at the feast he used to release for them any one prisoner whom they requested.6At every festival, Pilate would release any one prisoner whom the people requested.
7The man named Barabbas had been imprisoned with the insurrectionists who had committed murder in the insurrection.7Now there was a man in prison named Barabbas. He had been with the insurgents who had committed murder during the rebellion.
8The crowd went up and began asking him to do as he had been accustomed to do for them.8So the crowd came and began to request that Pilate do for them what he always did.
9Pilate answered them, saying, "Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?"9Pilate answered them, "Do you want me to release the king of the Jews for you?"
10For he was aware that the chief priests had handed Him over because of envy.10because he knew that the high priests had handed him over due to jealousy.
11But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to ask him to release Barabbas for them instead.11But the high priests stirred up the crowd to get him to release Barabbas for them instead.
12Answering again, Pilate said to them, "Then what shall I do with Him whom you call the King of the Jews?"12So Pilate asked them again, "Then what should I do with the man you call 'the King of the Jews'?"
13They shouted back, "Crucify Him!"13"Crucify him!" they shouted back.
14But Pilate said to them, "Why, what evil has He done?" But they shouted all the more, "Crucify Him!"14"Why?" Pilate asked them. "What has he done wrong?" But they shouted even louder, "Crucify him!"
15Wishing to satisfy the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas for them, and after having Jesus scourged, he handed Him over to be crucified.15So Pilate, wanting to satisfy the crowd, released Barabbas for them, but he had Jesus whipped and handed over to be crucified.

19They kept beating His head with a reed, and spitting on Him, and kneeling and bowing before Him.19They kept hitting him on the head with a stick, spitting on him, kneeling in front of him, and worshiping him.
20After they had mocked Him, they took the purple robe off Him and put His own garments on Him. And they led Him out to crucify Him.20When they had finished making fun of him, they stripped him of the purple robe, put his own clothes back on him, and led him away to crucify him.
21They pressed into service a passer-by coming from the country, Simon of Cyrene (the father of Alexander and Rufus), to bear His cross.21They forced a certain passer-by named Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, who happened to be coming in from the country, to carry Jesus' cross.
22Then they brought Him to the place Golgotha, which is translated, Place of a Skull.22They took Jesus to a place called Golgotha, which means Skull Place.

You who are going to destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days,29Those who passed by kept insulting him, shaking their heads, and saying, "Ha! You who were going to destroy the sanctuary and rebuild it in three days—
30save Yourself, and come down from the cross!"30save yourself and come down from the cross!"
31In the same way the chief priests also, along with the scribes, were mocking Him among themselves and saying, "He saved others; He cannot save Himself.31In the same way, the high priests, along with the scribes, were also making fun of him among themselves. They kept saying, "He saved others, but can't save himself!
32"Let this Christ, the King of Israel, now come down from the cross, so that we may see and believe!" Those who were crucified with Him were also insulting Him.32Let the Messiah, the king of Israel, come down from the cross now, since seeing is believing!" Even the men who were crucified with him kept insulting him.
33When the sixth hour came, darkness fell over the whole land until the ninth hour.33At noon, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon.

35When some of the bystanders heard it, they began saying, "Behold, He is calling for Elijah."35When some of the people standing there heard this, they said, "Listen! He's calling for Elijah!"
36Someone ran and filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on a reed, and gave Him a drink, saying, "Let us see whether Elijah will come to take Him down."36So someone ran and soaked a sponge in some sour wine. Then he put it on a stick and offered Jesus a drink, saying, "Wait! Let's see if Elijah comes to take him down!"

44Pilate wondered if He was dead by this time, and summoning the centurion, he questioned him as to whether He was already dead.44Pilate was amazed to hear that Jesus had already died, so he summoned the centurion to ask him if he was in fact dead.
45And ascertaining this from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.45When he learned from the centurion that he was dead, he let Joseph have the corpse.
