Then Pilate said to them, Why, what evil hath he done? ¹⁴ And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him. ¹⁵ And Pilate, willing to satisfy the people, released Barabbas to them, and having scourged Jesus, delivered him to be crucified.

They all say to him, Let him be crucified. ²³ And the governour said, Why, what evil hath he done? ²⁴ But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified. Then Pilate, seeing, that he could prevail nothing, but rather a tumult was made, took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just man: see ye to it. ²⁵ Then all the people answering said, His blood be on us and on our children.

¹³ And they cried out again, Crucify him. Then Pilate said to them, Why, what evil hath he done?

¹⁶ I will therefore chastise and release him.

²⁰ Pilate desiring to release Jesus, spake again to them.

¹ Then Pilate therefore took Jesus and scourged him.

⁶ Now at every feast he released to them one prisoner, whomsoever they would. 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.

⁴⁰ Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.

³² And coming out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross. ³³ And coming to a place called Golgotha, that is, the place of a skull, They gave him vinegar mingled with gall to drink, ³⁴ and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink. ³⁵ And they crucified him and parted his garments, casting lots, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and for my vesture they cast lots. ³⁶ And sitting down, they guarded him there, And set up over his head his accusation written, ³⁷ THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS. ³⁸ Then were two thieves crucified with him, one on the right-hand and one on the left. ³⁹ And they that were passing by reviled him, wagging their heads and saying, ⁴⁰ Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son God, come down from the cross. ⁴¹ In like manner the chief priests also with the scribes and elders mocking him said, He saved others; Cannot he save himself? ⁴² If he be the king of Israel, ⁴³ let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him. He trusted in God: let him deliver him now if he will have him; for he said, I am the Son of God. ⁴⁴ And even the robbers that were crucified with him, cast the same reproach upon him.

²¹ And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who was passing by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross. ²² And they bring him to the place, Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, the place of a skull. ²³ And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh; but he received it not. ²⁴ And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take. ²⁵ And it was the third hour, when they crucified him. And there was an inscription of his written over, ²⁶ THE KING OF THE JEWS. ²⁷ And with him they crucify two thieves, one on his right-hand, and one on his left. ²⁸ And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors. ²⁹ And they that passed by, reviled him, wagging their heads and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, ³⁰ and buildest it in three days, Save thyself, and come down from the cross. ³¹ In like manner also the chief priests mocking said one to another, with the scribes, He saved others; cannot he save himself? ³² Let the Christ, the king of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe. They also that were crucified with him reviled him.

²³ And he said to all, if any man be willing to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily and follow me.

²⁷ And whosoever doth not bear his cross and come after me, cannot be my disciple.

¹⁶ Then delivered he him to them, to be crucified. ¹⁷ And they took Jesus and led him away. And he bearing his cross, went forth to the place, called the place of a skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha:

¹⁰ and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the parts of Africk about Cyrene, and Roman sojourners, (Jews and Proselytes) Cretans and Arabians,

⁶ Whom they set before the apostles, and having prayed, they laid their hands upon them.

⁹ But there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called that of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia and Asia, disputing with Stephen.

¹ Now there were in the church that was at Antioch, certain prophets and teachers, Barnabas, and Simeon called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene and Manaen, who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

⁵⁵ And many women were there, beholding afar off, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, serving him.

⁴⁰ There were also women, beholding from afar, among whom was Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James the less, and of Joses, and Salome:

² And certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom had gone seven devils,

⁵² And all wept and bewailed her. But he said, Weep not; she is not dead; but sleepeth.

⁵⁵ And the women who had come with him from Galilee, following after, beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid.

¹⁹ But wo to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days.

¹⁷ But wo to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days. ¹⁸ And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter. ¹⁹ For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creat`on, which God created until now, neither shall be.

²³ But wo to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days; for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath on this people. ²⁴ And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden by the Gentiles, till the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

¹⁶ And said to the mountains and to the rocks, Fall on us, and cover us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb.

⁶ And in those days the men shall seek death, but not find it; and shall desire to die, but death will flee from them.

¹² Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather the wheat into the garner, but will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

⁶ If any one abide not in me, he is cast out as a branch, and is withered: and they gather and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

⁸ But that which beareth thorns and briars is rejected and nigh unto a curse, whose end is to be burned.

¹⁷ For the time is come for judgment to begin at the house of God: but if it begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? ¹⁸ And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?

¹² These are spots in your feasts of love, while they banquet with you feeding themselves without fear: clouds without water, driven about of winds; trees without leaves, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;

³⁸ Then were two thieves crucified with him, one on the right-hand and one on the left.

²⁷ And with him they crucify two thieves, one on his right-hand, and one on his left.

³⁷ For I say to you, That this which is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was numbered with the transgressors.

¹⁸ Where they crucified him, and two others with him, one on each side, and Jesus in the midst.

² who for the joy that was set before him, endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right-hand of the throne of God.

¹⁹ And shall deliver him to the Gentiles, to mock and scourge and crucify him; and the third day he shall rise again.

² Ye know that after two days is the Passoever, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.

³³ And coming to a place called Golgotha, that is, the place of a skull, They gave him vinegar mingled with gall to drink, ³⁴ and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.

³³ Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man shall be betrayed to the chief priests and the scribes: and they will condemn him to death, and deliver him to the Gentiles. ³⁴ And they will mock him and scourge him and spit upon him and kill him. And the third day he will rise again.

²² And they bring him to the place, Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, the place of a skull. ²³ And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh; but he received it not.

⁷ Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and rise again the third day.

¹⁴ And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of man be lifted up,

³³ (He spake this, signifying what death he should die.) The people answered him, ³⁴ We have heard out of the law, that the Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up?

³² So the saying of Jesus was fulfilled, which he spake, signifying what death he should die.

¹⁷ And they took Jesus and led him away. And he bearing his cross, went forth to the place, called the place of a skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha: ¹⁸ Where they crucified him, and two others with him, one on each side, and Jesus in the midst.

²³ Him being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands, have crucified and slain:

³⁰ The God of our fathers hath raised up Jesus, whom ye slew, hanging him on a tree.

²⁹ And when they had fulfilled all things that were written of him, taking him down from the tree, they laid him in a sepulchre.

¹³ Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: (for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

¹² Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people by his own blood, suffered without the gate. ¹³ Let us then go forth to him without the camp, bearing his reproach.

²⁴ Who himself bore our sins in his own body on the tree, that we being dead to sin might live to righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

⁴⁴ But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them that despitefully use you and persecute you:

²⁵ At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to babes.

³⁵ And they crucified him and parted his garments, casting lots, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and for my vesture they cast lots. ³⁶ And sitting down, they guarded him there, And set up over his head his accusation written,

²⁴ And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.

²⁷ But I say to you that hear, Love your enemies; do good to them that hate you, ²⁸ Bless them that curse you, pray for them that despitefully use you.

⁴⁷ And that servant who knew his Lord's will, and prepared not, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes. ⁴⁸ But he that knew not, and did things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few. For to whomsoever much is given, of him much shall be required; and to whom they have committed much, of him they will ask the more.

⁴⁷ And the centurion seeing what was done, glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man. ⁴⁸ And all the people who had come together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, returned, smiting their breasts.

²² If I had not come and spoken to them, they had not had sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. ²³ He that hateth me, hateth my Father also. If I had not done among them the works which no other did, they had not had sin: ²⁴ but now have they seen them, and yet hated both me and my Father.

¹¹ Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power over me, unless it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me to thee, hath the greater sin.

²³ And the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts, to every soldier a part, and also his vesture: now the vesture was without seam, woven from the top throughout. ²⁴ They said therefore one to another, Let us not rent it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and cast lots for my vesture. These things therefore the soldiers did.

¹⁷ And now, brethren, I know that thro' ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.

⁶⁰ And kneeling down, he cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And having said this, he fell asleep: And Saul was consenting to his death.

¹⁴ bless and curse not.

⁸ Which none of the rulers of this world knew; for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

¹² being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it:

¹³ having put me into the ministry, Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecuter, and a reviler; but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

²⁰ For what glory is it, if when ye commit faults and are buffeted, ye take it patiently? But if when ye do well and suffer, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God. ²¹ For even hereunto are ye called; for Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that ye might follow his steps: ²² Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: ²³ Who when he was reviled, reviled not again, when he suffered he threatened not, but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:

⁹ Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing, but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are called to this, to inherit a blessing.

¹⁷ And lo a voice out of the heavens, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I delight.

¹⁸ whom I have chosen, my beloved, in whom my soul delighteth: I will put my Spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment to the heathens.

³⁸ Then were two thieves crucified with him, one on the right-hand and one on the left. ³⁹ And they that were passing by reviled him, wagging their heads and saying, ⁴⁰ Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son God, come down from the cross. ⁴¹ In like manner the chief priests also with the scribes and elders mocking him said, He saved others; Cannot he save himself? ⁴² If he be the king of Israel, ⁴³ let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him. He trusted in God: let him deliver him now if he will have him; for he said, I am the Son of God.

¹⁴ And the Pharisees, who were covetous, heard these things, and they derided him.

⁶⁷ and led him into their council, Saying, Art thou the Christ? Tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, ye will not believe. ⁶⁸ And if I also ask you, ye will not answer me, nor let me go.

⁴ To whom coming as unto a living stone, rejected indeed by men,

³⁴ and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.

⁴⁸ And immediately one of them ran, and taking a sponge filled it with vinegar, and put it on a cane, and gave him to drink.

³⁶ And one ran and filling a sponge with vinegar, put it on a cane, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see if Elijah will come to take him down.

¹¹ And Herod, having with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked him, and arrayed him in a splendid robe, sent him back to Pilate.

²⁸ After this, Jesus knowing, that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst. ²⁹ Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar. And filling a sponge with vinegar, and putting it on a stalk of hyssop, they put it to his mouth. ³⁰ When Jesus had taken the vinegar, he said, It is finished, and bowing the head, he gave up the Ghost.

³⁷ THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

²⁶ THE KING OF THE JEWS.

³ And Pilate asked him saying, Art thou the king of the Jews?

¹⁹ And Pilate wrote an inscription also, and put it on the cross: and the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS. ²⁰ Many of the Jews read this inscription; for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin. ²¹ Then said the chief priests to Pilate, Write not, the king of the Jews; but that he said, I am the king of the Jews. ²² Pilate answered, What I have written, I have written.

⁴⁴ And even the robbers that were crucified with him, cast the same reproach upon him.

³⁴ I tell you, in this night, there shall be two men in one bed; one shall be taken and the other left. ³⁵ Two women shall be grinding together; one shall be taken and the other left.

³⁵ And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others: let him save himself, if he be the Christ, the chosen of God.

³⁷ And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.

⁵ But I will shew you whom ye shall fear: fear him, who after he hath killed, hath power to cast into hell: yea, I say to you, fear him.

¹¹ And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

⁴ Who would not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? For thou only art gracious: for all the nations shall come and worship before thee: for thy judgments are made manifest.

¹¹ And they gnawed their tongues for pain, and blasphemed the God of heaven, because of their pains, and because of their sores, and repented not of their works.

¹⁸ I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee: ¹⁹ I am no more worthy to be called thy son; make me as one of thy hired servants.

⁷ Submit yourselves, therefore, to God: resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

⁸ If we say, we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. ⁹ If we confess our sins, he is faithful, and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

⁸ Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows. And I say to you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God.

¹³ And the publican standing afar off, would not so much as lift up his eyes to heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.

²⁶ Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?

²⁸ And Thomas answered and said to him, My Lord and my God.

³¹ And they said, Believe in the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved and thy houshold.

²¹ Testifying both to Jews and Greeks repentance towards God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.

⁹ That if thou confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in thy heart, that God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. ¹⁰ For with the heart man believeth to righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made to salvation. ¹¹ For the scripture saith, Every one that believeth on him shall not be ashamed. ¹² For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord of all, is rich to all that call upon him. ¹³ For whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord, shall be saved. ¹⁴ But how shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in him, of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?

¹⁰ nor sodomites, Nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor revilers, nor the rapacious shall inherit the kingdom of God. ¹¹ And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

¹¹ Searching what, and what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them signified, when he testified before hand the sufferings of Christ and the glories that should follow.

⁶ Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious, and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded. ⁷ Therefore to you who believe, he is precious: but to them who believe not, The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner.

¹ Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God; and every one who loveth him that begat, loveth him also that is begotten of him.

¹¹ And this is the testimony, that God hath given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. ¹² He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. ¹³ These things have I written to you that believe on the name of the Son of God, that ye may know ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the Son of God.

¹⁵ Is it not lawful for me, to do what I will with my own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good? ¹⁶ So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many are called, but few chosen.

⁴ Who of you, having an hundred sheep, and losing one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, till he find it? ⁵ And having found it, he layeth it on his shoulders rejoicing.

²⁰ And he arose and came to his father: But while he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and his bowels yearned, and he ran, and fell on his neck and kissed him. ²¹ And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee, and am no more worthy to be called thy son. ²² But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet. ²³ And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it, and let us eat and be merry. ²⁴ For this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.

¹⁰ For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

³ I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to myself, that where I am, ye may be also.

²⁴ Father, I will that these also whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am, that they may behold my glory which thou hast given me; for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

²⁰ But the law came in between, that the offence might abound: yet where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: ²¹ That as sin had reigned through death, so grace also might reign through righteousness to eternal life, by Jesus Christ our Lord.

⁸ We behave undauntedly, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and present with the Lord.

³ Yea, I knew such a man (whether in the body or out of the body, I know not, God knoweth) That he was caught up into paradise, ⁴ and heard unspeakable things, which it is not possible for man to utter.

²³ For I am in a strait between two, having a desire to depart and to be with Christ, for it is far better.

¹⁵ This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the chief. ¹⁶ Yet for this cause I obtained mercy, that on me the chief Jesus Christ might shew all long-suffering, for a pattern to them who should hereafter believe in him to life everlasting.

²⁵ Wherefore he is able also, to save them to the uttermost who come to God thro' him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

⁷ He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of my God.

⁴⁵ Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the earth, unto the ninth hour.

⁵² and many bodies of holy men that slept were raised.

³³ And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour. ³⁴ And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? Which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

³⁹ And the centurion, who stood over-against him, seeing that having so cried he expired, said, Truly this man was the Son of God.

¹⁴ (It was then the preparation of the passover, and about the third hour:) And saith to the Jews, Behold your king.

²⁰ blood and fire, and vapour of smoke, The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the day of the Lord, the great and illustrious day, come.

⁵¹ And behold the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom, and the earth was shaken and the rocks were torn asunder: And the tombs were opened,

³⁸ And the veil of the temple was rent in twain, from the top to the bottom.

¹⁴ For he is our peace, he who hath made both one, ¹⁵ having broken down the middle wall of partition, Having abolished by his flesh the enmity, the law of commandments, through his decrees, that he might make the two one new man in himself, so making peace: ¹⁶ And might reconcile both in one body to God through the cross, having slain the enmity thereby. ¹⁷ And he came and preached peace to you that were afar off, and to them that were nigh. ¹⁸ For through him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.

¹⁹ Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil,

³ And after the second veil, the tabernacle, which is called The holy of holies, ⁴ Having the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant, overlaid round about with gold, wherein was a golden pot having the manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant: ⁵ And over it were the Cherubim of glory, shadowing the mercy-seat; of which we cannot now speak particularly. ⁶ Now these things being thus prepared, the priests go always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing their services. ⁷ But into the second, only the high-priest once a year, not without blood, which he offereth for himself and the errors of the people: ⁸ The Holy Ghost evidently shewing this, that the way into the holiest was not yet made manifest, while the first tabernacle was still subsisting,

¹⁹ Having therefore, brethren, free liberty to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, ²⁰ By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us through the veil, ²¹ that is, his flesh, And having an high-priest over the house of God; ²² Let us draw near with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.

⁴⁶ And about the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama-sabachthani? That is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? ⁴⁷ Some of them that stood there hearing it, said, He calleth Elijah. ⁴⁸ And immediately one of them ran, and taking a sponge filled it with vinegar, and put it on a cane, and gave him to drink. ⁴⁹ The rest said, Let be: let us see whether Elijah will come to save him. ⁵⁰ Jesus after he had cried again with a loud voice, dismissed his spirit. ⁵¹ And behold the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom, and the earth was shaken and the rocks were torn asunder: And the tombs were opened, ⁵² and many bodies of holy men that slept were raised. ⁵³ And coming out of the tombs after his resurrection, went into the holy city, and appeared to many. ⁵⁴ And the centurion and they that were with him, guarding Jesus, seeing the earthquake and the things that were done, feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God. ⁵⁵ And many women were there, beholding afar off, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, serving him. ⁵⁶ Among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's children.

³⁴ And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? Which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? ³⁵ And one of them that stood by, hearing it said, Behold, he calleth Elijah. ³⁶ And one ran and filling a sponge with vinegar, put it on a cane, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see if Elijah will come to take him down. ³⁷ And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and expired. ³⁸ And the veil of the temple was rent in twain, from the top to the bottom. ³⁹ And the centurion, who stood over-against him, seeing that having so cried he expired, said, Truly this man was the Son of God. ⁴⁰ There were also women, beholding from afar, among whom was Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James the less, and of Joses, and Salome: ⁴¹ Who also when he was in Galilee, followed him and ministered to him, and many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem.

³⁰ When Jesus had taken the vinegar, he said, It is finished, and bowing the head, he gave up the Ghost.

⁵⁹ And they stoned Stephen, invoking and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.

⁸ marvelled, and glorified God, who had given such power to men.

⁴¹ And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this person hath done nothing amiss.

⁷ The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.

³⁷ And hearing this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what shall we do?

⁶¹ And Mary Magdalene was there and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.

⁴⁷ And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses, beheld where he was laid.

²⁷ And there followed him a great company of people and of women, who also bewailed and lamented him.

²¹ Then said the chief priests to Pilate, Write not, the king of the Jews; but that he said, I am the king of the Jews. ²² Pilate answered, What I have written, I have written. ²³ And the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts, to every soldier a part, and also his vesture: now the vesture was without seam, woven from the top throughout. ²⁴ They said therefore one to another, Let us not rent it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and cast lots for my vesture. These things therefore the soldiers did. ²⁵ Now there stood by the cross of Jesus, his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleopas, and Mary Magdalene. ²⁶ Jesus therefore seeing his mother, and the disciple standing by whom he loved, saith to his mother, Woman, behold thy son. ²⁷ Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother. And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.

⁵⁷ When the evening was come, there came a rich man of Arimathea, named Joseph, who also himself was a disciple of Jesus. ⁵⁸ He going to Pilate, asked the body of Jesus: then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered. ⁵⁹ And Joseph taking the body, wrapped it in clean linen, And laid it in his own new tomb, ⁶⁰ which he had hewn out in the rock, and having rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, departed. ⁶¹ And Mary Magdalene was there and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.

⁴² And the evening being now come, (because it was the preparation, that is, ⁴³ the day before the sabbath) Joseph of Arimathea, an honourable counsellor, who also waited for the kingdom of God, came and went in boldly to Pilate, and asked the body of Jesus. ⁴⁴ And Pilate marvelled that he was dead already: and calling to him the centurion, he asked, If he had been any while dead? ⁴⁵ And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph. ⁴⁶ And having bought fine linen, he took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre, which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone to the door of the sepulchre. ⁴⁷ And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses, beheld where he was laid.

²⁵ And behold there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon, and this man was just and religious, waiting for the Consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him.

³⁸ And after these things, Joseph of Arimathea (being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, for fear of the Jews) asked Pilate leave, to take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore and took the body of Jesus. ³⁹ And Nicodemus also came (who at first had come to Jesus by night) bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pounds. ⁴⁰ So they took the body of Jesus, and wrapped it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury. ⁴¹ Now in the place where he was crucified, there was a garden, and in the garden a new sepulchre, in which no man had ever been laid. ⁴² There therefore they laid Jesus, because of the preparation -day of the Jews; for the sepulchre was nigh.

² A devout man, and fearing God with all his house, who gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.

²² And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and fearing God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned of God by an holy angel, to send for thee to his house, and to hear words from thee.

²⁴ For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and faith. And a considerable multitude was added to the Lord.
