15:1 |
And forthwith 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.
|
15:2 |
And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering, said to him, Thou sayest [it].
|
15:3 |
And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.
|
15:4 |
And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they testify against thee.
|
15:5 |
But Jesus yet answered nothing: so that Pilate marveled.
|
15:6 |
Now at [that] feast he released to them one prisoner, whom they desired.
|
15:7 |
And there was [one] named Barabbas, [who lay] bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.
|
15:8 |
And the multitude crying aloud, began to desire [him to do] as he had ever done to them.
|
15:9 |
But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release to you the King of the Jews?
|
15:10 |
(For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.)
|
15:11 |
But the chief priests moved the people that he should rather release Barabbas to them.
|
15:12 |
And Pilate answered, and said again to them, What will ye then that I shall do [to him] whom ye call the King of the Jews?
|
15:13 |
And they cried out again, Crucify him.
|
15:14 |
Then Pilate said to them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.
|
15:15 |
And [so] Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas to them, and having scourged Jesus, delivered him to be crucified.

|
15:17 |

|
15:18 |
And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!
|
15:19 |
And they struck him on the head with a reed, and spit upon him, and bowing [their] knees, worshiped him.
|
15:20 |

And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.
|

|
15:26 |
And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
|

And with him they crucify two thieves, the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.
|
15:28 |
And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors.
|
15:29 |
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,
|
15:30 |
Save thyself, and come down from the cross.
|
15:31 |
Likewise also the chief priests mocking, said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others, himself he cannot save.
|
15:32 |

|
15:35 |
And some of them that stood by, when they heard [it], said, Behold, he calleth Elijah.
|
15:36 |
And one ran and filled a sponge full of vinegar, and put [it] on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elijah will come to take him down.

|
15:45 |
And when he knew [it] from the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.
