³⁹ But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the king of the Jews? ⁴⁰ Again therefore they cried out, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.

¹⁴ And it was the preparation of the passover, but about the third hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold, your king. ¹⁵ But they cried out Away with [him], away with [him], crucifie him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucifie your king? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Cesar. ¹⁶ Then therefore, he delivered him unto them to be crucified.

¹³ The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, the God of our fathers hath glorified his Son Jesus Christ, whom ye delivered up to Judgment, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined and willing to let him go. ¹⁴ But ye oppressed the holy one, and the just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you, ¹⁵ And killed the prince of life, whom God raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.

¹⁸ For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.

⁴⁵ And when the Jews saw the multitude, they were filled with envy, and contradicted those words which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.

³ For we our selves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, [and] hating one another.

¹⁴ But if then ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. ¹⁵ This wisdom descendeth not from above, but [is] earthly, sensual, devilish. ¹⁶ For where envying and strife [is], there [is] also confusion, and every evil work.

⁵ Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?

¹² Not as Cain was of that wicked one, and slew his brother: And wherefore slew he him? Because his own Works were evil, and his brothers righteous.

²⁰ But the chief priests and elders perswaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.

⁴⁰ Again therefore they cried out, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.

¹⁴ But ye oppressed the holy one, and the just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you,

² Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him. ³ When Herod the king had heard [it], he was troubled, and Jerusalem with him. ⁴ And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded where Christ should be born.

¹ And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes, and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and led [him] away into the hall, and delivered [him] to Pilate. ² And Pilate asked him, Art thou the king of the Jews? And he answering saith unto him, Thou sayst it.

² And they began to accuse him, saying. We have found this [man] perverting our nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Cesar, but saying, that he himself is Christ, the king.

²⁰ But Pilate willing to release Jesus, spake again to them. ²¹ But they cried in answer Crucifie, crucifie. ²² And he said unto them the third time, What evil then hath he done? I find no cause of death in him: But I will chastise him, and let [him] go[.] ²³ And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified: and the voices of them, and of the chief priests prevailed. ²⁴ And Pilate gave sentence that what they required should be done.

³¹ Him hath God exalted in glory, a Prince and a Saviour, to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins in him.

⁴ Saying, I have sinned, in that I have betrayed righteous blood. And they said, What [is that] to us? see thou [to that].

¹⁹ When he was sat down on the Judgment-seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that righteous one, for I have suffered many things this day in a dream, because of him.

²³ And the governor said, What evil then hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified. ²⁴ When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this man, you shall see [to it]. ²⁵ Then answered all the people, and said, His blood [be] on us, and on our children.

⁵⁴ Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son God.

⁴ Pilate said to the chief priests and to the multitudes, I find no fault in this man.

¹⁴ Said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth the people: But I having examined [him] before you, have found no fault in him[.] ¹⁵ No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him, and nothing worthy of death is done unto him.

²¹ But they cried in answer Crucifie, crucifie.

⁴¹ And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of what we have done: but this man hath done no wicked thing.

⁴⁷ And the centurion cryed out, and glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.

³⁸ Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in him no fault at all.

⁶ When the chief priests therefore and the officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucifie, crucifie him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him and crucifie him; for I find no fault in him.

¹² From thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out saying, If thou shalt let this man go, thou art not Cesars friend. For whosoever maketh himself a king, speaketh against Cesar. ¹³ When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down upon the judgment-seat, in a place that is called the Pavement, in the Hebrew, Gabbatha. ¹⁴ And it was the preparation of the passover, but about the third hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold, your king. ¹⁵ But they cried out Away with [him], away with [him], crucifie him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucifie your king? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Cesar.

⁵⁴ When they had heard him, they were cut to the hearts, and they gnashed [their] teeth at him. ⁵⁵ But Stephen being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus the Lord standing on the right hand of God, ⁵⁶ And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God. ⁵⁷ Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord,

³⁴ But when they knew that he was a Jew, with one voice of them all about the space of two hours, they cried out, Great [is] Diana of the Ephesians.

²² And they hearkened as far as this word, and lift up their voice, and said, Take away such an one from the earth: for it is not fit he should live. ²³ And as they cried out, and cast off [their] cloaths, and threw dust to heaven,

²⁶ For such an high priest became us also, holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;

¹⁹ But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a Lamb without blemish and without spot:

¹⁹ And will deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucifie: and the third day he will rise again.

²⁶ Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus he delivered him to them that they might crucifie him.

³⁴ And they shall mock him, and shall spit upon him, and after three days he shall rise again.

³³ And they will scourge [him,] and put him to death: and the third day he will rise again.

¹ Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged [him].

¹⁹ But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother.

²⁴ Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we being dead to our sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose wound ye were healed.

³ Then assembled together the chief priests, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiphas.

²⁷ Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band. ²⁸ And they stripped him of his clothes, and put on him a purple garment and a scarlet robe. ²⁹ And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put [it] on his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, king of the Jews. ³⁰ And they spit upon him, and took the reed, ad smote him on the head. ³¹ And when they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucifie [him].

²⁸ They led therefore Jesus from Caiphas, unto the hall of judgment: and it was early, and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled: but might eat the passover.

³³ Pilate therefore entered into the judgment-hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the king of the Jews?

¹ There was a certain man in Ceserea, named Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian,

²⁸ And they stripped him of his clothes, and put on him a purple garment and a scarlet robe. ²⁹ And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put [it] on his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, king of the Jews. ³⁰ And they spit upon him, and took the reed, ad smote him on the head.

¹¹ And Herod with his soldiers set him at nought, and mocked [him,] and arayed him in a shining robe, and sent him back to Pilate.

² And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe, ³ And said, Hail king of the Jews: and the struck him.

⁴² He saved others, himself he cannot save; let him now come down from the cross and we will believe him. ⁴³ If he trusted in God let him deliver him now if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.

² And Pilate asked him, Art thou the king of the Jews? And he answering saith unto him, Thou sayst it.

²⁹ And they that passed by, blasphemed him, wagging [their] heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days! ³⁰ Save thy self, and come down from the cross. ³¹ But the chief priests mocking, said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others, himself he cannot save. ³² Let Christ the king of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe him. And they that were crucified with him, reproached him.

³⁶ And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and they brought him vinegar, ³⁷ And saying, Hail king of the Jews, and puting a crown of thorns [on him.]

¹² And he answered and said to them, If Elias cometh first, he will restore all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought.

⁶⁵ And some began to spit on his face, and they buffeted him, and said unto him, Prophesie: and they struck him with the palms of their hands.

⁶³ But the men that held him, mocked him.

³⁶ And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and they brought him vinegar,

⁴ But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to my self seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal.

¹⁰ But why dost thou judge thy brother in not eating, or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of God. ¹¹ For it is written, I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

¹⁰ That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of [things] in heaven, and on earth, and under the earth;

² Looking unto Jesus theauthor and finisher of the faith; 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. ³ For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.

¹³ Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.

³¹ And when they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucifie [him]. ³² And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name coming to meet him: him they compelled to take his cross.

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

²⁶ But as they led him away, they laid hold on one Simon a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear [it] after Jesus.

¹⁸ If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me first, ¹⁹ If ye were of the world, the world would love its own: Because ye were not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. ²⁰ Remember the words that I said unto you, my servant is not greater than his Lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you: if they have observed my saying, they will observe yours also.

³³ And when they were come unto the place Golgotha, that is to say the place of a scull, ³⁴ They gave him vinegar to drink, mingled with gall: and when he had tasted he would not drink. ³⁵ and they crucified him, and parted his garments casting lots. ³⁶ And sitting down, they watched him there. ³⁷ And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS. ³⁸ Then were there two thieves crucified with him: one on the right hand, and another on the left. ³⁹ And they that passed by, reviled him, wagging their head, ⁴⁰ And saying, wo! Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest [it] in three days, save thy self if thou be the Son of God, and come down from the cross. ⁴¹ Likewise also the Scribes and Pharisees, mocking him, said, ⁴² He saved others, himself he cannot save; let him now come down from the cross and we will believe him. ⁴³ If he trusted in God let him deliver him now if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God. ⁴⁴ The thieves also who were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.

²⁷ And there followed him a company of people, [and] women who bewailed and lamented him. ²⁸ But Jesus turning unto them, said, Daughters of Jerusalem weep not for me, nor lament; but weep for your selves, and your children. ²⁹ For the days will come, in the which they shall say, Blessed [are] the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave nourishment. ³⁰ Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us, ³¹ For if they do these things in the green tree, what shall be done in the dry? ³² And there were also two other malefactors led with him to be put to death. ³³ And when they were come to the place which is called the Scull, there they crucified him, and the malefactors together; one on the right hand, and the other on the left. ³⁴ But they parted his raiment, and cast a lot. ³⁵ And the people stood beholding. But they derided him, and they said to him, Thou hast saved others, save thy self, if thou beest Christ, the Son of God: If thou beest the chosen, ³⁶ And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and they brought him vinegar, ³⁷ And saying, Hail king of the Jews, and puting a crown of thorns [on him.] ³⁸ And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, Latin, Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

¹⁷ And he bearing his cross, went forth into what is called the place of a scull, which is called in the Hebrew, Golgotha; ¹⁸ Where they crucified him, and two others with him, on either side one, but Jesus in the midst. ¹⁹ And Pilate wrote a title and put on the cross, And the writing was JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS. ²⁰ This title therefore read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, in Greek, in Latin. ²¹ The chief priests of the Jews said therefore to Pilate, Write not, The king of the Jews, but that he said, I am king of the Jews. ²² Pilate answered, What I have written, I have written. ²³ The soldiers therefore, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts, to every soldier a part, and also the coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout. ²⁴ But they said among themselves, Let us not rent it, but cast lots for it, whose it is, that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my garments among them, and for my vesture they did cast a lot. These things therefore the soldiers did. ²⁵ Now there stood by the cross of Jesus, his mother, and his mothers sister, Mary [the] daughter of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene. ²⁶ When Jesus therefore saw [his] mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold, they son. ²⁷ Then saith he to the disciple, Behold, thy mother. And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own [home].

¹⁹ And the disciples did as Jesus had ordered them, and they made ready the passover.

³⁴ They gave him vinegar to drink, mingled with gall: and when he had tasted he would not drink.

²⁵ Verily I say unto you; I will not drink any more of the fruit of the vine, until that day when I shall drink it again in the kingdom of God.

¹⁸ I say unto you, I will not from this time drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.

²⁸ After this, Jesus knowing that all things were already accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst. ²⁹ There was therefore set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth. ³⁰ When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head and gave up the ghost.

³⁵ and they crucified him, and parted his garments casting lots. ³⁶ And sitting down, they watched him there.

³⁴ But they parted his raiment, and cast a lot.

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

³⁰ But Peter said unto them. The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew, and hanged on a tree.

²¹ He hath made him sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

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

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

³³ And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole earth, until the ninth hour.

⁴⁴ And it was the sixth hour, and there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.

¹⁴ And it was the preparation of the passover, but about the third hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold, your king.

¹⁵ For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day.

³⁷ And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

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

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

³² And there were also two other malefactors led with him to be put to death. ³³ And when they were come to the place which is called the Scull, there they crucified him, and the malefactors together; one on the right hand, and the other on the left.

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

³⁷ For I say, that this which is written, must be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: For These things that concern me have an end.

² Looking unto Jesus theauthor and finisher of the faith; 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.

⁶¹ And said we have heard this man say, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.

³⁹ And they that passed by, reviled him, wagging their head, ⁴⁰ And saying, wo! Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest [it] in three days, save thy self if thou be the Son of God, and come down from the cross.

⁵⁸ We heard him say, I will destroy the temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will raise up another made without hands.

¹⁸ The answered the Jews, and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, that thou dost these things? ¹⁹ Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I wilt raise it up. ²⁰ Then said the Jews, Forty and six years has this temple been built, and wilt thou rear it up in three days? ²¹ But he spake of the temple of his body. ²² When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembred that he had said this: and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

⁴¹ Likewise also the Scribes and Pharisees, mocking him, said,

³⁵ And the people stood beholding. But they derided him, and they said to him, Thou hast saved others, save thy self, if thou beest Christ, the Son of God: If thou beest the chosen,

⁴⁷ Then the chief priests therefore and the Pharisees gathered a council together, and said, What do we? This man doth such miracles. ⁴⁸ And if we let him this alone, all men will believe on him; and the Romans will come and take away our place and nation. ⁴⁹ But one of the, Caiphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all, ⁵⁰ Nor consider that it is expedient for you, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not. ⁵¹ But this spake he not of himself: but being the high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was to die for that nation: ⁵² And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one, the children of God that were scattered abroad.

²³ And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified. ²⁴ Verily verily I say unto you, Except a grain of wheat falling into the ground die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.

¹⁷ For [it is] better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well-doing, than for evil-doing. ¹⁸ For Christ also hath once died for sins for us, the just for the unjust; that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickned by the Spirit:

¹⁷ So all the generations from Abraham to David [were] fourteen generations: and from David until the captivity of Babylon, were fourteen generations: and from the captivity of Babylon unto Christ, were fourteen generations,

⁴⁴ The thieves also who were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.

⁶¹ But he held his peace, and answered nothing. The high priest said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed? ⁶² But Jesus answered and saith to him, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, with the clouds of heaven.

³⁹ And one of the Malefactors blasphemed him: ⁴⁰ But the other answering, rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God?for we are under the same judgement? ⁴¹ And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of what we have done: but this man hath done no wicked thing. ⁴² And turning to the Lord, he said to him, Remember me in the day of thy coming. ⁴³ But Jesus answered and said unto him, that rebuked [the other,] Be of good courage, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.

⁴⁹ Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, thou art the King of Israel.

¹³ Took branches of palm trees and went forth to meet him, and cried aloud, saying, Hosanna, blessed be he that cometh in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel.

²⁵ The other disciples therefore said unto him, that We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, put my hands into his Side, and put my finger into the print of the nails, I will not believe. ²⁶ And after eight days, again the disciples were within, and Thomas with them: Then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace [be] unto you. ²⁷ Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and put unto my side; and be not faithless, but believing. ²⁸ Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord, and my God. ²⁹ Jesus saith unto him, Because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed; blessed [are] they that have not seen, and have believed.

³ For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?

¹⁸ Who concerning the truth have erred, saying, that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.

²⁵ And it was the third hour, and they guarded him.

⁴⁴ And it was the sixth hour, and there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour. ⁴⁵ And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit: And having said thus, he gave up the ghost.

⁴⁶ And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying [Eli, Eli, lama Zaphthani?] that is to say, My God, my God why hast thou forsaken me?

⁴⁶ But the sun was darkned, and the vail of the temple was rent.

³ He saw in a vision evidently, about the ninth hour of the day, an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius.

⁷ Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications, with strong crying and tears, unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard, in that he feared;

¹¹ And he answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall come, [and] shall restore all things: ¹² But I say you, that Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they wished. ¹³ Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist: Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.

⁴⁷ Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias. ⁴⁸ And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled [it] with vinegar, and put [it] on a reed, and gave him to drink. ⁴⁹ The rest said, Let him alone, let us see whether Elias will come and save him.

¹¹ And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes, Elias must first come? ¹² And he answered and said to them, If Elias cometh first, he will restore all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought. ¹³ I say unto you, that Elias is come, and they have done unto him whatsoever they would, as it is written of him.

²³ And they gave him to drink, wine mingled with myrrh; and he received [it] not.

⁵⁰ Jesus when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.

³⁰ When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head and gave up the ghost.

⁵¹ And behold, the vail of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom, and the earth did quake, and the rocks were rent. ⁵² And the graves were opened, and many bodies of saints which slept were raised, ⁵³ And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.

⁴⁵ And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit: And having said thus, he gave up the ghost.

¹⁴ Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast [our] profession. ¹⁵ For we have not an high priest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, without sin. ¹⁶ Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace for seasonableassistance.

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

³ And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the holiest of all: ⁴ Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein [was] the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant; ⁵ And over it the cherubims of glory, shadowing the mercy-seat: of which we cannot now speak particularly. ⁶ Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests go always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing [their] service. ⁷ But into the second the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offers for himself, and the errors of the people. ⁸ The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all, is not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle is yet standing: ⁹ Which [is] the first for the time now present, in which are offered both gifts and sacrifices, that cannot make him that does the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience, ¹⁰ [Being] only in meats, and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances imposed until the time of reformation. ¹¹ But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, through a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; ¹² Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption.

¹⁹ Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus; ²⁰ By a new living way which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, through his flesh; ²¹ And 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. ²³ Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering, for he [is] faithful that promised:

⁵ And when he was entered into Capharnaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching, ⁶ And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home grievously tormented with the palsy. ⁷ And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him. ⁸ The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy, that thou shouldst come under my roof: but say the word only, and my servant will be healed. ⁹ For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and say to this [man], Go, and he goeth: and to another, Come, and he cometh: and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. ¹⁰ When Jesus heard [it], he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no not in Israel.

⁴³ If 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 Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he were already dead. ⁴⁵ And when he knew [it] of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.

⁴⁷ And the centurion cryed out, and glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man. ⁴⁸ And all the multitude that came together to the sight, having beheld the things which were done, smote their breasts, and their foreheads, and returned.

¹ And when it was determined that he should sail into Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners, unto one named Julius, a centurion of Augustus band. ² And entering into a ship of Adramyttium, we lanched, meaning to sail to the places of Asia, one Aristarchus a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us. ³ But the next [day] we touched at Sidon. And Julius courteously entreated Paul, and gave [him] liberty to go unto his friends, to refresh himself.

⁴³ But the centurion, willing to save Paul, kept them from [their] purpose, and commanded that they who could swim, should cast [themselves] first into the sea, and get to land:

⁵⁵ Is not this the carpenters son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and John, and Simon, and Judas?

⁵⁵ And many women were there beholding afar off which followed Jesus from Galilee; ministring unto him. ⁵⁶ Among whom was Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and of Joseph, and the mother of Zebedee's children.

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

¹ In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn towards the first [day] of the week, came Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, to see the sepulchre.

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

⁹ NOW when he was risen early, the first [day] of the week, he made himself known first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven dæmons.

² And certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom had gone seven daemons. ³ And Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herods steward, and Susanna, and many others, who also ministred unto them of their substance.

⁴⁹ And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee, stood afar off to behold these things.

¹¹ But Mary stood without at the sepulchre, weeping: As therefore she wept, she stooped down unto the sepulchre, ¹² And seeth two angels, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain: ¹³ And they say unto her, Woman, why Weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She saith unto them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him. ¹⁴ When she had thus said, she turned her self back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it is Jesus. ¹⁵ Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? she supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou hast taken him away, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away. ¹⁶ Jesus saith unto her, Mary. But She turned her self, and saith unto him, Rabboni, which is to say, Lord, Master. ¹⁷ Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not: for I have not yet ascended to the Father: Go therefore to the brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father and your Father, and my God and your God. ¹⁸ Mary Magdalene cometh and telleth his disciples, that she had seen the Lord, and declared to them what he had said to her.

⁵ Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as other apostles, and the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?

¹ JAMES a Servant of God, and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.

⁵⁷ When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus isciple: ⁵⁸ He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus: then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered. ⁵⁹ And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, ⁶⁰ And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed. ⁶¹ And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre. ⁶² Now the next day that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,

⁵⁰ And behold one named Joseph, being a counsellor, a good man, and a just: ⁵¹ He had not consented to the counsel and deed of them: he was of Arimathea, a city of the Jews, who waited for the kingdom of God. ⁵² He went unto Pilate, and asked the body of Jesus. ⁵³ And he took down, and wrapped the body of Jesus in linen, and laid him in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid: ⁵⁴ And when he had laid him, he put to the sepulchre a stone which twenty men could hardly roll. ⁵⁵ And it was the day before the sabbath. And two women followed, who came from Galilee together, and beheld his sepulchre. ⁵⁶ And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath-day.

³¹ The Jews therefore, because it [was] the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath, because it was the preparation, for that was the great Sabbath day, besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and they might be taken away.

³⁸ But after these things, Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave: And he came and took the body of Jesus. ³⁹ But there came also Nicodemus, who at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh, and aloes, about an hundred litrae. ⁴⁰ They therefore took the body of Jesus, and wound 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, wherein was never man yet laid; ⁴² There laid they Jesus therefore, because of the Jews preparation, for the sepulchre was nigh.

³⁰ But many first shall be last; and the last first.

¹⁶ So the last shall be first, and the first last: for the called are many, but the chosen are few.

⁵⁷ When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus isciple:

²³ And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto the disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! ²⁴ A camel may sooner go through the eye of a needle, than a rich man enter into the kingdom of God. ²⁵ And his disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches, to enter into the kingdom of God! ²⁶ And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved? ²⁷ And Jesus looking upon them, saith, With men [it is] impossible, but not with God.

⁵⁴ And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest; and he sat with the servants, warming himself at the fire.

⁶⁶ And as Peter was in the palace, there cometh to him one of the maids of the high priest. ⁶⁷ And seeing Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and said, Thou wast with Jesus of Nazareth. ⁶⁸ But he denied, saying, I neither know nor understand what thou sayst. He went out into the porch; and the cock crew. ⁶⁹ And the maid seeing him again, he denyed again, and she began to say to them that stood by, This is [one] of them. ⁷⁰ And a little after, they that stood by said again, Surely thou art [one] of them: for thou art a Galilean. ⁷¹ But he began to curse, and to say, I know not the man of whom ye speak. ⁷² And presently the cock crew the second time. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus said. And when he thought thereon, he began to weep.

²⁵ And there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name [was] Symeon;and this man [was] just and devout, expecting the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him.

³⁸ And coming in the same hour she gave thanks unto God, and spake of him to all them that expected redemption in Jerusalem.

⁵¹ He had not consented to the counsel and deed of them: he was of Arimathea, a city of the Jews, who waited for the kingdom of God.

³⁸ But after these things, Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave: And he came and took the body of Jesus.

⁸ Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel, ⁹ If we this day be examined by you of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole; ¹⁰ Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. ¹¹ This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. ¹² Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given to men whereby we must be saved. ¹³ Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned men, they marvelled, but they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.

⁵⁰ But the Jews stirred up the devout honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised affliction and persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled then out of their coasts.

¹² Therefore some of them believed: but somedid not believe: also of the Helenist women, and of those that honourable, and many men and women believed.

¹⁴ And many of the brethren in the Lord waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word of God without fear.

³¹ The Jews therefore, because it [was] the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath, because it was the preparation, for that was the great Sabbath day, besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and they might be taken away. ³² The soldiers therefore came and brake the legs of the first, and of the other who was crucified with him. ³³ But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs. ³⁴ But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water. ³⁵ And he that saw [it], bear record, and his record is true: and he knoweth [Read: we know, as 21:24] that he saith true, that ye also might believe. ³⁶ For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, Ye shall not break a bone of him. ³⁷ And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.

⁵⁸ He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus: then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.

³⁹ And when the centurion who stood there over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, se said, Truly this man was the Son of God.

⁵⁹ And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, ⁶⁰ And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.

² And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, And came and rolled away the stone, and sat upon [it].

³ And they said among themselves, Who shall roll away the stone from the door of the sepulchre? for it was very great. ⁴ And they come and find the stone rolled away.

⁵³ And he took down, and wrapped the body of Jesus in linen, and laid him in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid:

³⁸ Jesus therefore again, as in a passion within himself cometh to the grave. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.

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

¹ And they went and bought sweet spices, that they might anoint him.

⁵⁵ And it was the day before the sabbath. And two women followed, who came from Galilee together, and beheld his sepulchre.
