Mark 15

CHAPTER 15
1And anon in the morrowtide the high priests made a counsel with the elder men, and the scribes, and with all the council, and bound Jesus and led, and betook him to Pilate.
2And Pilate asked him, Art thou king of Jews? And Jesus answered, and said to him, Thou sayest.
3And the high priests accused him in many things.
4But Pilate again asked him, and said, Answerest thou nothing? Seest thou in how many things they accuse thee?
5But Jesus answered no[thing] more, so that Pilate wondered.
6But by the feast day he was wont to let go to them, one of the men bound [or one of the prisoners], whomever they asked.
7And there was one that was said Barabbas, that was bound with men of dissension, that had done man-slaughter in [the] sedition.
8And when the people was gone up, he began to pray, as he evermore did to them.
9And Pilate answered to them, and said, Will ye that I let go to you the king of Jews?
10For he knew, that the high priests had taken him by envy.
11But the bishops stirred [or excited] the people, that he should rather let go to them Barabbas.
12And again Pilate answered, and said to them, What then will ye that I shall do to the king of Jews?
13And they again cried, Crucify him, [that is, put him on the cross].
14But Pilate said to them, What evil hath he done? And they cried the more, Crucify him.
15And Pilate, willing to make satisfaction to the people, let go to them Barabbas, and he betook to them Jesus, beaten with scourges, to be crucified.
16And knights led him withinforth, into the porch of the moot hall. And they called together all the company of knights,
17and they clothed him with purple. And they wreathed a crown of thorns, and put on him.
18And they began to greet him, and said, Hail, king of Jews.
19And they smote his head with a reed, and bespat him [or spat on him]; and they kneeled, and worship-ped him.
20And after that they had scorned him, they unclothed him of the purple, and clothed him with his clothes, and led out him, to crucify him.
21And they compelled a man that passed by the way, that came from the town, Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and of Rufus, to bear his cross.
22And they led him into a place Golgotha [or the place of Golgotha], that is to say, the place of Calvary.
23And they gave to him to drink wine meddled with myrrh, and he took not.
24And they crucified him, and parted his clothes, and cast lot on those, who should take what.
25And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.
26And the title of his cause was written, King of Jews.
27And they crucified with him two thieves, one at the right half, and one at his left half, [or one on his right half, and one on his left half].
28And the scripture was fulfilled that saith, And he is ordained [or areckoned] with wicked men.
29And as they passed forth, they blasphemed him, moving their heads, and saying, Vath! [or Fie!] thou that destroyest the temple of God, and in three days buildest it again;
30come adown from the cross, and make thyself safe.
31Also the high priests scorned him each to other, with the scribes, and said, He hath made other men safe, he may not save himself.
32Christ, [the] king of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we see, and believe. And they that were crucified with him, despised him [or put false reproof to him].
33And when the sixth hour was come, darknesses were made on all the earth, till into the ninth hour.
34And in the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a great voice, and said, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani, that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
35And some of the men that stood about heard, and said, Lo! he calleth Elijah.
36And one ran, and filled a sponge with vinegar, and putted about to a reed, and gave him to drink, and said, Suffer ye, see we, if Elijah come to do him down.
37And Jesus gave out a great cry, and died [or sent out the spirit].
38And the veil of the temple was rent [or cut] atwo, from the highest to beneath.
39But the centurion that stood over against saw, that he so crying had died, and he said, Verily, this man was God’s Son [or this man was the Son of God].
40And there were also women beholding from afar, among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary, the mother of James the less, and of Joseph, and of Salome [or and Salome].
41And when Jesus was in Galilee, they followed him, and ministered to him, and many other women, that came up together with him to Jerusalem.
42And when the eventide was come, for it was the eventide that is before the sabbath,
43Joseph of Arimathaea, the noble decurion, came, and he abode the realm of God; and boldly he entered to Pilate, and asked the body of Jesus.
44But Pilate wondered, if he were now dead. And when the centurion was called, he asked him, if he were [now] dead;
45and when he knew of the centurion, he granted [or gave] the body of Jesus to Joseph.
46And Joseph bought linen cloth [or sendal], and took him down, and wrapped [him] in the linen cloth, and laid him in a sepulchre that was hewn of a stone [or put him in a new sepulchre that was hewn in a stone], and wallowed a stone to the door of the sepulchre.
47And Mary Magdalene and Mary of Joseph beheld, where he was laid.
