1 E, chegando a manhã, todos os príncipes dos sacerdotes, e os anciãos do povo, formavam juntamente conselho contra Jesus, para o matarem;
2 E maniatando-o, o levaram e entregaram ao presidente Pôncio Pilatos.
3 Então Judas, o que o traíra, vendo que fora condenado, trouxe, arrependido, as trinta moedas de prata aos príncipes dos sacerdotes e aos anciãos,
4 Dizendo: Pequei, traindo o sangue inocente. Eles, porém, disseram: Que nos importa? Isso é contigo.
5 E ele, atirando para o templo as moedas de prata, retirou-se e foi-se enforcar.
6 E os príncipes dos sacerdotes, tomando as moedas de prata, disseram: Não é lícito colocá-las no cofre das ofertas, porque são preço de sangue.
7 E, tendo deliberado em conselho, compraram com elas o campo de um oleiro, para sepultura dos estrangeiros.
8 Por isso foi chamado aquele campo, até ao dia de hoje, Campo de Sangue.
9 Então se realizou o que vaticinara o profeta Jeremias: Tomaram as trinta moedas de prata, preço do que foi avaliado, que certos filhos de Israel avaliaram,
10 E deram-nas pelo campo do oleiro, segundo o que o Senhor me determinou.
11 E foi Jesus apresentado ao presidente, e o presidente o interrogou, dizendo: És tu o Rei dos Judeus? E disse-lhe Jesus: Tu o dizes.
12 E, sendo acusado pelos príncipes dos sacerdotes e pelos anciãos, nada respondeu.
13 Disse-lhe então Pilatos: Não ouves quanto testificam contra ti?
14 E nem uma palavra lhe respondeu, de sorte que o presidente estava muito maravilhado.
15 Ora, por ocasião da festa, costumava o presidente soltar um preso, escolhendo o povo aquele que quisesse.
16 E tinham então um preso bem conhecido, chamado Barrabás.
17 Portanto, estando eles reunidos, disse-lhes Pilatos: Qual quereis que vos solte? Barrabás, ou Jesus, chamado Cristo?
18 Porque sabia que por inveja o haviam entregado.
19 E, estando ele assentado no tribunal, sua mulher mandou-lhe dizer: Não entres na questão desse justo, porque num sonho muito sofri por causa dele.
20 Mas os príncipes dos sacerdotes e os anciãos persuadiram à multidão que pedisse Barrabás e matasse Jesus.
21 E, respondendo o presidente, disse-lhes: Qual desses dois quereis vós que eu solte? E eles disseram: Barrabás.
22 Disse-lhes Pilatos: Que farei então de Jesus, chamado Cristo? Disseram-lhe todos: Seja crucificado.
23 O presidente, porém, disse: Mas que mal fez ele? E eles mais clamavam, dizendo: Seja crucificado.
24 Então Pilatos, vendo que nada aproveitava, antes o tumulto crescia, tomando água, lavou as mãos diante da multidão, dizendo: Estou inocente do sangue deste justo. Considerai isso.
25 E, respondendo todo o povo, disse: O seu sangue caia sobre nós e sobre nossos filhos.
26 Então soltou-lhes Barrabás, e, tendo mandado açoitar a Jesus, entregou-o para ser crucificado.
27 E logo os soldados do presidente, conduzindo Jesus à audiência, reuniram junto dele toda a coorte.
28 E, despindo-o, o cobriram com uma capa de escarlate;
29 E, tecendo uma coroa de espinhos, puseram-lha na cabeça, e em sua mão direita uma cana; e, ajoelhando diante dele, o escarneciam, dizendo: Salve, Rei dos judeus.
30 E, cuspindo nele, tiraram-lhe a cana, e batiam-lhe com ela na cabeça.
31 E, depois de o haverem escarnecido, tiraram-lhe a capa, vestiram-lhe as suas vestes e o levaram para ser crucificado.
32 E, quando saíam, encontraram um homem cireneu, chamado Simão, a quem constrangeram a levar a sua cruz.
33 E, chegando ao lugar chamado Gólgota, que se diz: Lugar da Caveira,
34 Deram-lhe a beber vinagre misturado com fel; mas ele, provando-o, não quis beber.
35 E, havendo-o crucificado, repartiram as suas vestes, lançando sortes, para que se cumprisse o que foi dito pelo profeta: Repartiram entre si as minhas vestes, e sobre a minha túnica lançaram sortes.
36 E, assentados, o guardavam ali.
37 E por cima da sua cabeça puseram escrita a sua acusação: este e³ jesus, o rei dos judeus.
38 E foram crucificados com ele dois salteadores, um à direita, e outro à esquerda.
39 E os que passavam blasfemavam dele, meneando as cabeças,
40 E dizendo: Tu, que destróis o templo, e em três dias o reedificas, salva-te a ti mesmo. Se és Filho de Deus, desce da cruz.
41 E da mesma maneira também os príncipes dos sacerdotes, com os escribas, e anciãos, e fariseus, escarnecendo, diziam:
42 Salvou os outros, e a si mesmo não pode salvar-se. Se é o Rei de Israel, desça agora da cruz, e creremos nele.
43 Confiou em Deus; livre-o agora, se o ama; porque disse: Sou Filho de Deus.
44 E o mesmo lhe lançaram também em rosto os salteadores que com ele estavam crucificados.
45 E desde a hora sexta houve trevas sobre toda a terra, até à hora nona.
46 E perto da hora nona exclamou Jesus em alta voz, dizendo: Eli, Eli, lamá sabactâni; isto é, Deus meu, Deus meu, por que me desamparaste?
47 E alguns dos que ali estavam, ouvindo isto, diziam: Este chama por Elias,
48 E logo um deles, correndo, tomou uma esponja, e embebeu-a em vinagre, e, pondo-a numa cana, dava-lhe de beber.
49 Os outros, porém, diziam: Deixa, vejamos se Elias vem livrá-lo.
50 E Jesus, clamando outra vez com grande voz, rendeu o espírito.
51 E eis que o véu do templo se rasgou em dois, de alto a baixo; e tremeu a terra, e fenderam-se as pedras;
52 E abriram-se os sepulcros, e muitos corpos de santos que dormiam foram ressuscitados;
53 E, saindo dos sepulcros, depois da ressurreição dele, entraram na cidade santa, e apareceram a muitos.
54 E o centurião e os que com ele guardavam a Jesus, vendo o terremoto, e as coisas que haviam sucedido, tiveram grande temor, e disseram: Verdadeiramente este era o Filho de Deus.
55 E estavam ali, olhando de longe, muitas mulheres que tinham seguido Jesus desde a Galiléia, para o servir;
56 Entre as quais estavam Maria Madalena, e Maria, mãe de Tiago e de José, e a mãe dos filhos de Zebedeu.
57 E, vinda já a tarde, chegou um homem rico, de Arimatéia, por nome José, que também era discípulo de Jesus.
58 Este foi ter com Pilatos, e pediu-lhe o corpo de Jesus. Então Pilatos mandou que o corpo lhe fosse dado.
59 E José, tomando o corpo, envolveu-o num fino e limpo lençol,
60 E o pôs no seu sepulcro novo, que havia aberto em rocha, e, rodando uma grande pedra para a porta do sepulcro, retirou-se.
61 E estavam ali Maria Madalena e a outra Maria, assentadas defronte do sepulcro.
62 E no dia seguinte, que é o dia depois da Preparação, reuniram-se os príncipes dos sacerdotes e os fariseus em casa de Pilatos,
63 Dizendo: Senhor, lembramo-nos de que aquele enganador, vivendo ainda, disse: Depois de três dias ressuscitarei.
64 Manda, pois, que o sepulcro seja guardado com segurança até ao terceiro dia, não se dê o caso que os seus discípulos vão de noite, e o furtem, e digam ao povo: Ressuscitou dentre os mortos; e assim o último erro será pior do que o primeiro.
65 E disse-lhes Pilatos: Tendes a guarda; ide, guardai-o como entenderdes.
66 E, indo eles, seguraram o sepulcro com a guarda, selando a pedra.
1 But having become morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people held consultation against Jesus in order to condemn him to death.
2 And having bound him, they led him away and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
3 Then Judas, who betrayed him, after seeing that he was condemned, having repented, he brought back the thirty silver pieces to the chief priests and elders,
4 saying, I sinned, having betrayed innocent blood. But they said, What is it to us? See thou to it.
5 And having cast down the silver pieces in the temple, he departed, and after going away, he hanged himself.
6 And after taking the silver pieces, the chief priests said, It is not permitted to put them into the treasury, since it is a price of blood.
7 And having held consultation, they bought the potter's field with them for burial for foreigners.
8 Therefore that field was called the field of blood, to this day.
9 Then that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, which says, And they took the thirty silver pieces, the price of him who was valued, whom they valued from the sons of Israel,
10 and they gave them for the potter's field, as Lord appointed me.
11 Now Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor questioned him, saying, Are thou the king of the Jews? And Jesus said to him, Thou say.
12 And when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.
13 Then Pilate says to him, Do thou not hear how many things they testify against thee?
14 And he did not answer him, not even one word, so as for the governor to marvel greatly.
15 Now during a feast the governor had been accustomed to release to the crowd one prisoner whom they wanted.
16 And they had then a notorious prisoner called Barabbas.
17 When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, Whom do ye want I should release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?
18 For he knew that they delivered him up because of envy.
19 And while he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, There is nothing for thee and that righteous man. For I suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.
20 But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes that they should ask for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
21 Now the governor having answered, he said to them, Which of the two do ye want I would release to you? And they said, Barabbas.
22 Pilate says to them, What then shall I do to Jesus who is called Christ? They all say to him, He should be crucified.
23 And the governor said, For what evil has he done? But they cried out even more, saying, He should be crucified.
24 And when Pilate saw that he was accomplishing nothing, but rather an uproar was developing, after taking water, he washed his hands in front of the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man. See ye to it.
25 And having answered, all the people said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
26 Then he released Barabbas to them, and having scourged Jesus he delivered him so that he would be crucified.
27 Then the soldiers of the governor, having taken Jesus into the Praetorium, gathered the whole band to him.
28 And having stripped him, they put a scarlet robe on him.
29 And having woven a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand. And having knelt down before him, they ridiculed him, saying, Hail, king of the Jews!
30 And having spat upon him, they took the reed and were striking him on his head.
31 And after they ridiculed him, they took the robe off of him, and put his clothes on him, and led him away in order to crucify.
32 And while coming out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. They drafted this man, so that he might take his cross.
33 And having come to a place called Golgotha, that is called, the place of a skull,
34 they gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall. And having tasted it, he would not drink.
35 And when they crucified him, they divided his garments, casting lots.
36 And as they sat, they keep watch over him there.
37 And they set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 Then two robbers are crucified with him, one at the right hand and one at the left.
39 And those who passed by reviled him, shaking their heads,
40 and saying, Thou who destroy the temple, and build it in three days, save thyself. If thou are the Son of God, come down from the cross.
41 And likewise also the chief priests, ridiculing with the scholars, and elders, and Pharisees, said,
42 He saved others, he cannot save himself. If he is the king of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe in him.
43 He trusted in God, let him rescue him now, if he wants him, for he said, I am the Son of God.
44 And also the robbers who were crucified with him reviled him the same way.
45 Now from the sixth hour darkness developed over all the land until the ninth hour.
46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a great voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? That is, My God, my God, why have thou forsaken me?
47 And some of those who stood there, when they heard it, said, This man calls Elijah.
48 And straightaway one of them, after running, and having taken a sponge, and having filled it with vinegar, put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
49 But the others said, Leave thou be. We might see if Elijah comes he will save him.
50 And Jesus, having cried out again in a great voice, yielded up his spirit.
51 And behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two from the top to the bottom, and the earth quaked, and the rocks split,
52 and the sepulchers were opened, and many bodies of the sanctified who have been asleep arose.
53 And having come forth out of the sepulchers after his resurrection they entered into the holy city and appeared to many.
54 Now the centurion, and those with him watching over Jesus, when they saw the earthquake, and the things that happened, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
55 And many women were there watching from afar, who followed Jesus from Galilee, serving him,
56 among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
57 And having become evening, there came a rich man from Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was discipled by Jesus.
58 This man having come to Pilate, requested the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be given.
59 And Joseph having taken the body, wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
60 and laid it in his own new sepulcher, which he hewed out in the rock. And having rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulcher, he departed.
61 And Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary were there, sitting opposite the tomb.
62 Now on the morrow, which is after the Preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees came together to Pilate,
63 saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said while he was still alive, After three days I am raised.
64 Command therefore to secure the tomb until the third day, lest his disciples having come by night steal him away, and say to the people, He was raised from the dead. And the last error will be worse than the first.
65 Pilate said to them, Ye have security. Go, make it as secure as ye know how.
66 And having gone, they made the tomb secure, with the security having sealed the stone.
