Mark 15
15
1And immediately in the morning the chief priests, having taken counsel with the elders and scribes and the whole sanhedrim, bound Jesus and carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate. 2And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered and said to him, Thou sayest. 3And the chief priests accused him urgently. 4And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? See of how many things they bear witness against thee. 5But Jesus still answered nothing, so that Pilate marvelled. 6But at the feast he released to them one prisoner, whomsoever they begged of him. 7Now there was the person named Barabbas bound with those who had made insurrection with him, and that had committed murder in the insurrection. 8And the crowd crying out began to beg that he would do to them as he had always done. 9But Pilate answered them saying, Will ye that I release to you the King of the Jews? 10for he knew that the chief priests had delivered him up through envy. 11But the chief priests stirred up the crowd that he might rather release Barabbas to them. 12And Pilate answering said to them again, What will ye then that I do to him whom ye call King of the Jews? 13And they cried out again, Crucify him. 14And Pilate said to them, What evil then has he done? But they cried out the more urgently, Crucify him.
15And Pilate, desirous of contenting the crowd, released to them Barabbas, and delivered up Jesus, when he had scourged him, that he might be crucified. 16And the soldiers led him away into the court which is called the praetorium, and they call together the whole band. 17And they clothe him with purple, and bind round on him a crown of thorns which they had plaited. 18And they began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews! 19And they struck his head with a reed, and spat on him, and, bending the knee, did him homage. 20And when they had mocked him, they took the purple off him, and put his own clothes on him; and they lead him out that they may crucify him. 21And they compel to go with them a certain passer-by, Simon, a Cyrenian, coming from the field, the father of Alexander and Rufus, that he might carry his cross.
22And they bring him to the place called Golgotha, which, being interpreted, is Place of a skull. 23And they offered him wine to drink medicated with myrrh; but he did not take it. 24And having crucified him, they part his clothes amongst themselves, casting lots on them, what each one should take. 25And it was the third hour, and they crucified him. 26And the superscription of what he was accused of was written up: The King of the Jews. 27And with him they crucify two robbers, one on his right hand, and one on his left. 28And the scripture was fulfilled which says, And he was reckoned with the lawless. 29And they that passed by reviled him, shaking their heads, and saying, Aha, thou that destroyest the temple and buildest it in three days, 30save thyself, and descend from the cross. 31In like manner the chief priests also, with the scribes, mocking with one another, said, He saved others; himself he cannot save. 32Let the Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and may believe. And they that were crucified with him reproached him.
33And when the sixth hour was come, there came darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour; 34and at the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? 35And some of those who stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calls for Elias. 36And one, running and filling a sponge with vinegar, fixed it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone, let us see if Elias comes to take him down. 37And Jesus, having uttered a loud cry, expired. 38And the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom. 39And the centurion who stood by over against him, when he saw that he had expired having thus cried out, said, Truly this man was Son of God. 40And there were women also looking on from afar off, among whom were both Mary of Magdala, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome; 41who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him and ministered to him; and many others who came up with him to Jerusalem.
42And when it was already evening, since it was the preparation, that is, the day before a sabbath, 43Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable councillor, who also himself was awaiting the kingdom of God, coming, emboldened himself and went in to Pilate and begged the body of Jesus. 44And Pilate wondered if he were already dead; and having called to him the centurion, he inquired of him if he had long died. 45And when he knew from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph. 46And having bought fine linen, and having taken him down, he swathed him in the fine linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was cut out of rock, and rolled a stone to the door of the sepulchre. 47And Mary of Magdala and Mary the mother of Joses saw where he was put.

Mark 15
15
1 And immediately in the morning, after the leaders of the priests had taken counsel with the elders and the scribes and the entire council, binding Jesus, they led him away and delivered him to Pilate.
2 And Pilate questioned him, "You are the king of the Jews?" But in response, he said to him, "You are saying it."
3 And the leaders of the priests accused him in many things.
4 Then Pilate again questioned him, saying: "Do you not have any response? See how greatly they accuse you."
5 But Jesus continued to give no response, so that Pilate wondered.
6 Now on the feast day, he was accustomed to release to them one of the prisoners, whomever they requested.
7 But there was one called Barabbas, who had committed murder in the sedition, who was confined with those of the sedition.
8 And when the crowd had ascended, they began to petition him to do as he always did for them.
9 But Pilate answered them and said, "Do you want me to release to you the king of the Jews?"
10 For he knew that it was out of envy that the leaders of the priests had betrayed him.
11 Then the chief priests incited the crowd, so that he would release Barabbas to them instead.
12 But Pilate, responding again, said to them: "Then what do you want me to do with the king of the Jews?"
13 But again they cried out, "Crucify him."
14 Yet truly, Pilate said to them: "Why? What evil has he done?" But they cried out all the more, "Crucify him."
15 Then Pilate, wishing to satisfy the people, released Barabbas to them, and he delivered Jesus, having severely scourged him, to be crucified.
16 Then the soldiers led him away to the court of the praetorium. And they called together the entire cohort.
17 And they clothed him with purple. And platting a crown of thorns, they placed it on him.
18 And they began to salute him: "Hail, king of the Jews."
19 And they struck his head with a reed, and they spit on him. And kneeling down, they reverenced him.
20 And after they had mocked him, they stripped him of the purple, and they clothed him in his own garments. And they led him away, so that they might crucify him.
21 And they compelled a certain passerby, Simon the Cyrenian, who was arriving from the countryside, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to take up his cross.
22 And they led him through to the place called Golgotha, which means, 'the Place of Calvary.'
23 And they gave him wine with myrrh to drink. But he did not accept it.
24 And while crucifying him, they divided his garments, casting lots over them, to see who would take what.
25 Now it was the third hour. And they crucified him.
26 And the title of his case was written as: THE KING OF THE JEWS.
27 And with him they crucified two robbers: one at his right, and the other at his left.
28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which says: "And with the iniquitous he was reputed."
29 And the passersby blasphemed him, shaking their heads and saying, "Ah, you who would destroy the temple of God, and in three days rebuild it,
30 save yourself by descending from the cross."
31 And similarly the leaders of the priests, mocking him with the scribes, said to one another: "He saved others. He is not able to save himself.
32 Let the Christ, the king of Israel, descend now from the cross, so that we may see and believe." Those who were crucified with him also insulted him.
33 And when the sixth hour arrived, a darkness occurred over the entire earth, until the ninth hour.
34 And at the ninth hour, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, "Eloi, Eloi, lamma sabacthani?" which means, "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?"
35 And some of those standing near, upon hearing this, said, "Behold, he is calling Elijah."
36 Then one of them, running and filling a sponge with vinegar, and placing it around a reed, gave it to him to drink, saying: "Wait. Let us see if Elijah will come to take him down."
37 Then Jesus, having emitted a loud cry, expired.
38 And the veil of the temple was torn in two, from the top to the bottom.
39 Then the centurion who stood opposite him, seeing that he had expired while crying out in this way, said: "Truly, this man was the Son of God."
40 Now there were also women watching from a distance, among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joseph, and Salome,
41 (and while he was in Galilee, they followed him and ministered to him) and many other women, who had ascended along with him to Jerusalem.
42 And when evening had now arrived (because it was the Preparation Day, which is before the Sabbath)
43 there arrived Joseph of Arimathea, a noble council member, who himself was also awaiting the kingdom of God. And he boldly entered to Pilate and petitioned for the body of Jesus.
44 But Pilate wondered if he had already died. And summoning a centurion, he questioned him as to whether he was already dead.
45 And when he had been informed by the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.
46 Then Joseph, having bought a fine linen cloth, and taking him down, wrapped him in the fine linen and laid him in a sepulcher, which was hewn from a rock. And he rolled a stone to the entrance of the tomb.
47 Now Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joseph observed where he was laid.
