ylt @Matthew:27:1 @And morning having come , all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus , so as to put him to death ; ylt @Matthew:27:2 @and having bound him , they did lead away , and delivered him up to Pontius Pilate , the governor . ylt @Matthew:27:3 @Then Judas -- he who delivered him up -- having seen that he was condemned , having repented , brought back the thirty silverlings to the chief priests , and to the elders , saying , ylt @Matthew:27:4 @'I did sin , having delivered up innocent blood ;' and they said , 'What -- to us ? thou shalt see !' ylt @Matthew:27:5 @and having cast down the silverlings in the sanctuary , he departed , and having gone away , he did strangle himself . ylt @Matthew:27:6 @And the chief priests having taken the silverlings , said , 'It is not lawful to put them to the treasury , seeing it is the price of blood ;' ylt @Matthew:27:7 @and having taken counsel , they bought with them the field of the potter , for the burial of strangers ; ylt @Matthew:27:8 @therefore was that field called , 'Field of blood ,' unto this day . ylt @Matthew:27:9 @Then was fulfilled that spoken through Jeremiah the prophet , saying , 'And I took the thirty silverlings , the price of him who hath been priced , whom they of the sons of Israel did price , ylt @Matthew:27:10 @and gave them for the field of the potter , as the Lord did appoint to me .' ylt @Matthew:27:11 @And Jesus stood before the governor , and the governor did question him , saying , 'Art thou the king of the Jews !' And Jesus said to him , 'Thou sayest .' ylt @Matthew:27:12 @And in his being accused by the chief priests and the elders , he did not answer any thing , ylt @Matthew:27:13 @then saith Pilate to him , 'Dost thou not hear how many things they witness against thee ?' ylt @Matthew:27:14 @And he did not answer him , not even to one word , so that the governor did wonder greatly . ylt @Matthew:27:15 @And at the feast the governor had been accustomed to release one to the multitude , a prisoner , whom they willed , ylt @Matthew:27:16 @and they had then a noted prisoner , called Barabbas , ylt @Matthew:27:17 @they therefore having been gathered together , Pilate said to them , 'Whom will ye I shall release to you ? Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ ?' ylt @Matthew:27:18 @for he had known that because of envy they had delivered him up . ylt @Matthew:27:19 @And as he is sitting on the tribunal , his wife sent unto him , saying , 'Nothing -- to thee and to that righteous one , for many things did I suffer to-day in a dream because of him .' ylt @Matthew:27:20 @And the chief priests and the elders did persuade the multitudes that they might ask for themselves Barabbas , and might destroy Jesus ; ylt @Matthew:27:21 @and the governor answering said to them , 'Which of the two will ye [that ] I shall release to you ?' And they said , 'Barabbas .' ylt @Matthew:27:22 @Pilate saith to them , 'What then shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ ?' They all say to him , 'Let be crucified !' ylt @Matthew:27:23 @And the governor said , 'Why , what evil did he ?' and they were crying out the more , saying , 'Let be crucified .' ylt @Matthew:27:24 @And Pilate having seen that it profiteth nothing , but rather a tumult is made , having taken water , he did wash the hands before the multitude , saying , 'I am innocent from the blood of this righteous one ; ye -- ye shall see ;' ylt @Matthew:27:25 @and all the people answering said , 'His blood [is ] upon us , and upon our children !' ylt @Matthew:27:26 @Then did he release to them Barabbas , and having scourged Jesus , he delivered [him ] up that he may be crucified ; ylt @Matthew:27:27 @then the soldiers of the governor having taken Jesus to the Praetorium , did gather to him all the band ; ylt @Matthew:27:28 @and having unclothed him , they put around him a crimson cloak , ylt @Matthew:27:29 @and having plaited him a crown out of thorns they put [it ] on his head , and a reed in his right hand , and having kneeled before him , they were mocking him , saying , 'Hail , the king of the Jews .' ylt @Matthew:27:30 @And having spit on him , they took the reed , and were smiting on his head ; ylt @Matthew:27:31 @and when they had mocked him , they took off from him the cloak , and put on him his own garments , and led him away to crucify [him ]. ylt @Matthew:27:32 @And coming forth , they found a man , a Cyrenian , by name Simon : him they impressed that he might bear his cross ; ylt @Matthew:27:33 @and having come to a place called Golgotha , that is called Place of a Skull , ylt @Matthew:27:34 @they gave him to drink vinegar mixed with gall , and having tasted , he would not drink . ylt @Matthew:27:35 @And having crucified him , they divided his garments , casting a lot , that it might be fulfilled that was spoken by the prophet , 'They divided my garments to themselves , and over my vesture they cast a lot ;' ylt @Matthew:27:36 @and sitting down , they were watching him there , ylt @Matthew:27:37 @and they put up over his head , his accusation written , 'This is Jesus , the king of the Jews .' ylt @Matthew:27:38 @Then crucified with him are two robbers , one on the right hand , and one on the left , ylt @Matthew:27:39 @and those passing by were speaking evil of him , wagging their heads , ylt @Matthew:27:40 @and saying , 'Thou that art throwing down the sanctuary , and in three days building [it ], save thyself ; if Son thou art of God , come down from the cross .' ylt @Matthew:27:41 @And in like manner also the chief priests mocking , with the scribes and elders , said , ylt @Matthew:27:42 @'Others he saved ; himself he is not able to save ! If he be King of Israel , let him come down now from the cross , and we will believe him ; ylt @Matthew:27:43 @he hath trusted on God , let Him now deliver him , if He wish him , because he said -- Son of God I am ;' ylt @Matthew:27:44 @with the same also the robbers , who were crucified with him , were reproaching him . ylt @Matthew:27:45 @And from the sixth hour darkness came over all the land unto the ninth hour , ylt @Matthew:27:46 @and about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a great voice , saying , 'Eli , Eli , lama sabachthani ?' that is , 'My God , my God , why didst Thou forsake me ?' ylt @Matthew:27:47 @And certain of those standing there having heard , said -- 'Elijah he doth call ;' ylt @Matthew:27:48 @and immediately , one of them having run , and having taken a spunge , having filled [it ] with vinegar , and having put [it ] on a reed , was giving him to drink , ylt @Matthew:27:49 @but the rest said , 'Let alone , let us see if Elijah doth come -- about to save him .' ylt @Matthew:27:50 @And Jesus having again cried with a great voice , yielded the spirit ; ylt @Matthew:27:51 @and lo , the vail of the sanctuary was rent in two from top unto bottom , and the earth did quake , and the rocks were rent , ylt @Matthew:27:52 @and the tombs were opened , and many bodies of the saints who have fallen asleep , arose , ylt @Matthew:27:53 @and having come forth out of the tombs after his rising , they went into the holy city , and appeared to many . ylt @Matthew:27:54 @And the centurion , and those with him watching Jesus , having seen the earthquake , and the things that were done , were exceedingly afraid , saying , 'Truly this was God 's Son .' ylt @Matthew:27:55 @And there were there many women beholding from afar , who did follow Jesus from Galilee , ministering to him , ylt @Matthew:27:56 @among whom was Mary the Magdalene , and Mary the mother of James and of Joses , and the mother of the sons of Zebedee . ylt @Matthew:27:57 @And evening having come , there came a rich man , from Arimathea , named Joseph , who also himself was discipled to Jesus , ylt @Matthew:27:58 @he having gone near to Pilate , asked for himself the body of Jesus ; then Pilate commanded the body to be given back . ylt @Matthew:27:59 @And having taken the body , Joseph wrapped it in clean linen , ylt @Matthew:27:60 @and laid it in his new tomb , that he hewed in the rock , and having rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb , he went away ; ylt @Matthew:27:61 @and there were there Mary the Magdalene , and the other Mary , sitting over-against the sepulchre . ylt @Matthew:27:62 @And on the morrow that is after the preparation , were gathered together the chief priests , and the Pharisees , unto Pilate , ylt @Matthew:27:63 @saying , 'Sir , we have remembered that that deceiver said while yet living , After three days I do rise ; ylt @Matthew:27:64 @command , then , the sepulchre to be made secure till the third day , lest his disciples , having come by night , may steal him away , and may say to the people , He rose from the dead , and the last deceit shall be worse than the first .' ylt @Matthew:27:65 @And Pilate said to them , 'Ye have a watch , go away , make secure -- as ye have known ;' ylt @Matthew:27:66 @and they , having gone , did make the sepulchre secure , having sealed the stone , together with the watch .
