1 And the first thing in the morning the chief priests, with those in authority and the scribes and all the Sanhedrin, had a meeting, and put cords round Jesus, and took him away, and gave him up to Pilate.
2 And Pilate put a question to him, Are you the King of the Jews? And he, answering, said to him, You say so.
3 And the chief priests said a number of things against him.
4 And Pilate again put a question, Do you say nothing in answer? see how much evil they say you have done.
5 But Jesus gave no more answers, so that Pilate was full of wonder.
6 Now at the feast every year he let one prisoner go free at their request.
7 And there was one named Barabbas, in prison with those who had gone against the government and in the fight had taken life.
8 And the people went up, requesting him to do as he had done for them in other years.
9 And Pilate said in answer to them, Is it your desire that I let the King of the Jews go free?
10 For he saw that the chief priests had given him up through envy.
11 But the people were moved by the chief priests to make him let Barabbas go free.
12 And Pilate again said in answer to them, What then am I to do to him to whom you give the name of the King of the Jews?
13 And they said again loudly, To the cross with him!
14 And Pilate said to them, Why, what evil has he done? But their cry was the louder, To the cross!
15 And Pilate, desiring to do what was pleasing to the people, let Barabbas go free, and gave up Jesus, when he had been whipped, to be put to death on the cross.
16 And the men of the army took him away into the square in front of the building which is the Praetorium, and they got together all the band.
17 And they put a purple robe on him, and twisting a crown of thorns, they put it on him;
18 And, as if honouring him, they said, Long life to the King of the Jews!
19 And they gave him blows on the head with a stick and put shame on him and, going down on their knees, gave him worship.
20 And when they had made sport of him, they took the purple robe off him and put his clothing on him. And they took him out to put him to death on the cross.
21 And they made one, Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, who was going by, coming from the country, go with them, so that he might take his cross.
22 And they took him to the place named Golgotha, which is, Dead Man's Head.
23 And they gave him wine mixed with myrrh; but he did not take it.
24 And he was nailed to the cross; and they made a division of his clothing among them, putting to the decision of chance what everyone was to take.
25 And it was the third hour when they put him on the cross.
26 And the statement of his crime was put in writing on the cross, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
27 And they put two thieves on crosses with him, one on his right side, and one on his left.
28 []
29 And those who went by made sport of him, shaking their heads, and saying, Ha! you who give the Temple to destruction, and put it up again in three days,
30 Keep yourself from death, and come down from the cross.
31 In the same way the chief priests, laughing at him among themselves with the scribes, said, A saviour of others, he has no salvation for himself.
32 Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, so that we may see and have belief. And those who were put on crosses with him said evil things against him.
33 And when the sixth hour had come, it was dark over all the land till the ninth hour.
34 And at the ninth hour, Jesus said in a loud voice, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, My God, my God, why are you turned away from me?
35 And some of those who were near, hearing it, said, See, he is crying to Elijah.
36 And one of them went quickly and, getting a sponge full of bitter wine, put it on a rod, and gave it to him for drink, saying, Let be; let us see if Elijah will come to take him down.
37 And Jesus gave a loud cry, and gave up his spirit.
38 And the curtain of the Temple was parted in two from end to end.
39 And when the captain, who was near, saw how he gave up his spirit, he said, Truly this man was a son of God.
40 And there were women watching from a distance: among them were Mary Magdalene, and Mary, the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome,
41 Who went with him when he was in Galilee and took care of him; and a number of other women who came up with him to Jerusalem.
42 And when it was evening, because it was the time of getting ready, that is, the day before the Sabbath,
43 There came Joseph of Arimathaea, a responsible man in high honour, who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God; and he went in to Pilate without fear, and made a request for the body of Jesus.
44 And Pilate was surprised that he was dead; and, sending for the captain, he put a question to see if he had been dead for long.
45 And when he had news of it from the captain, he let Joseph have the body.
46 And he got a linen cloth and, taking him down, put the linen cloth round him, and put him in a place for the dead which had been cut out of a rock; and a stone was rolled against the door.
47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of Joses, saw where he was put.
1 A, mea kau ake te ata, ka runanga nga tohunga nui, nga kaumatua, nga karaipi, me te runanga katoa, a ka herea e ratou a Ihu, ka arahina atu, a tukua atu ana ki a Pirato.
2 Ka ui a Pirato ki a ia, Ko koe ranei te Kingi o nga Hurai? Ka whakahokia e ia ki a ia, Kua korerotia na e koe.
3 He maha hoki nga mea i whakapaea ki a ia e nga tohunga nui, kaore ia i korero.
4 Ka ui ano a Pirato ki a ia, ka mea, Kahore au kupu whakahoki? Na, te tini o nga kupu e korero nei ratou mou.
5 Heoi kahore a Ihu i whakahoki atu ano; no ka miharo a Pirato.
6 Na i taua hakari kotahi te herehere e tukua ana e ia ki a ratou, ko ta ratou e inoi ai.
7 Na i reira tetahi tangata ko Parapa te ingoa, e here tahi ana me ona hoa tutu, he hunga i patu tangata i te ngangaretanga.
8 Na ka haere te mano, ka anga ka tono ki a ia kia peratia me tana i mea ai ki a ratou i mua.
9 Na ka whakahoki a Pirato ki a ratou, ka mea, E pai ana ranei koutou kia tukua e ahau ki a koutou te Kingi o nga Hurai?
10 I mahara hoki ia he hae i tukua ai ia e nga tohunga nui.
11 Otira ka whakatutehutia e ratou te mano, kia tukua e ia ko Parapa ke ki a ratou.
12 Na ka whakahoki ano a Pirato, ka mea ki a ratou, He aha oti ta koutou e pai ai kia meatia e ahau ki tenei e huaina nei e koutou ko te Kingi o nga Hurai?
13 Ka karanga ano ratou, Ripekatia.
14 Na ka mea a Pirato ki a ratou, He aha koia tana kino i mea ai? Heoi nui noa atu ta ratou hamama, Ripekatia ia.
15 Na, i tona hiahia kia whakamarietia te mano, tukua ana e Pirato a parapa ki a ratou, a, ka oti a Ihu te whiu, ka tukua kia ripekatia.
16 Na ka arahina ia e nga hoia ki te marae, ara ki te whare whakawa, a karangarangatia ana te ropu katoa.
17 Ka whakakahuria ia ki te kakahu papura, a, ka oti tetahi karauna tataramoa te whiri, ka potaea ki a ia.
18 Na ka anga ratou ka oha ki a ia, Tena koe, e te Kingi o nga Hurai!
19 Patua ana e ratou tona matenga ki te kakaho, tuwha ana ki a ia, ka tuku i nga turi ki a ia, a koropiko ana ki a ia.
20 A, no ka mutu ta ratou taunu ki a ia, ka tangohia te kahu papura i a ia, na whakakakahuria ana ia ki ona ake kakahu, a arahina ana ia kia ripekatia.
21 Na ka meinga e ratou tetahi tangata e tika ana na reira, a Haimona o hairini, i ahu mai i nga whenua, ko te papa o Arehanera raua ko Rupuha, kia haere me ratou, kia riro ai mana e amo tona ripeka.
22 Na ka arahina ia ki tetahi wahi, ki Korokota, tona tikanga ina whakamaoritia ko te Wahi Angaanga.
23 A hoatu ana ki a ia he waina, he mea whakananu ki te maira, kia inumia: otira kihai i tangohia e ia.
24 A ripekatia ana ia e ratou, ka wehewehea ona kakahu, he mea maka ki te rota, kia kitea ai ko te aha e riro i tetahi, i tetahi.
25 Na ko te toru tera o nga haora, a ka ripekatia ia e ratou.
26 Ko te mea i whakawakia ai ia i tuhituhia ki runga, KO TE KINGI O NGA HURAI.
27 Na tokorua nga tahae i ripekatia ngatahitia me ia; ko tetahi ki matau, ko tetahi ki tona maui.
28 Na ka rite te karaipiture e mea nei, I taua ngatahitia ia me te hunga hara.
29 Ko te hunga e haereere ana i reira ka tawai ki a ia, ka ruru i o ratou matenga, ka mea, Ha, ko koe ka whakahoro nei i te whare tapu, ka hanga nei ano i nga ra e toru,
30 Whakaora i a koe ano ka heke iho i te ripeka.
31 Waihoki ko nga tohunga nui ka tawai i a ia, ratou ko nga karaipi, ka mea, Ko era atu i whakaorangia e ia, te taea e ia te whakaora a ia ake ano.
32 Tena ra kia heke iho aianei a te Karaiti, te Kingi o Iharaira, i te ripeka, kia kite ai tatou, kia whakapono ai. I tawai hoki ki a ia te hunga i ripekatia ngatahitia me ia.
33 A, no ka tae ki te ono o nga haora, ka pouri a runga o te whenua katoa, taea noatia te iwa o nga haora.
34 A i te iwa o nga haora ka karanga a Ihu, he nui te reo, ka mea, Eroi, Eroi, rama hapakatani? ko te tikanga tenei ina whakamaoritia, E toku Atua, e toku Atua, he aha koe i whakarere ai i ahau?
35 A, no te rongonga o etahi o te hunga e tu ana i reira, ka mea, Nana, e karanga ana ia i a Iraia.
36 Na ka oma tetahi, ka whakaki i tetahi hautai ki te winika, whakanohoia ana ki te kakaho, ka hoatu kia inumia e ia, ka mea, Kati; tena kia kite tatou me kore a Iraia e haere mai ki te tango i a ia ki raro.
37 Na he nui te reo i puaki i a Ihu, a hemo ake.
38 A ka wahia te arai o te temepara i waenganui pu mai i runga ki raro.
39 A, no te kitenga o te keneturio, e tu hangai atu ana ki a ia, i pera te ahua o tana tukunga i tona wairua, ka mea ia, He pono ko te Tama a te Atua tenei tangata.
40 Na i reira etahi wahine e matakitaki ana mai i tawhiti: i roto i a ratou a Meri Makarini, a Meri hoki whaea o Hemi, te mea iti, raua ko Hohi, me Haromi;
41 Ara ko nga wahine i aru nei i a ia, i a ia i Kariri, i mahi mea nei mana; me etahi atu wahine tokomaha i haere tahi mai nei me ia ki Hiruharama.
42 Na ka ahiahi, i te mea ko te ra takanga, ara ko te ra i mua ake o te hapati,
43 Ka haere mai a Hohepa o Arimatia, he rangatira runanga, he tangata nui tonu, e tatari ana ano hoki ia ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua; a ka haere maia tonu ki a Pirato, ka inoi i te tinana o Ihu.
44 Na ka miharo a Pirato, hua noa kahore ano i mate: ka karangatia e ia te keneturio, ka ui ki a ia, mehemea kua mate atu ra ia.
45 A, no ka rongo ki te keneturio kua mate, ka whakaaetia e ia te tinana ki a Hohepa.
46 Na ka hokona e tera he rinena, ka tangohia mai ia ki raro, a takaia ana ki te rinena; whakatakotoria ana ia ki roto ki te urupa kua haua atu ki te kamaka, a whakataka atu ana he kohatu ki te kuwaha o te urupa.
47 I kite a Meri Makarini, raua ko Meri whaea o Hohi, i te wahi i whakatakotoria ai ia.
