27:1 When 1161 the morning 4405 was come 1096 5637, all 3956 the chief priests 749 and 2532 elders 4245 of the people 2992 took 2983 5627 counsel 4824 against 2596 Jesus 2424 to 5620 put 2289 0 him 846 to death 2289 5658:

27:2 And 2532 when they had bound 1210 5660 him 846, they led [him] away 520 5627, and 2532 delivered 3860 5656 him 846 to Pontius 4194 Pilate 4091 the governor 2232.

27:3 Then 5119 Judas 2455, which 3588 had betrayed 3860 5723 him 846, when he saw 1492 5631 that 3754 he was condemned 2632 5681, repented himself 3338 5679, and brought again 654 5656 the thirty 5144 pieces of silver 694 to the chief priests 749 and 2532 elders 4245,

27:4 Saying 3004 5723, I have sinned 264 5627 in that I have betrayed 3860 5631 the innocent 121 blood 129. And 1161 they said 2036 5627, What 5101 [is that] to 4314 us 2248? see 3700 5695 thou 4771 [to that].

27:5 And 2532 he cast down 4496 5660 the pieces of silver 694 in 1722 the temple 3485, and departed 402 5656, and 2532 went 565 5631 and hanged himself 519 5668.

27:6 And 1161 the chief priests 749 took 2983 5631 the silver pieces 694, and said 2036 5627, It is 1832 0 not 3756 lawful 1832 5748 for to put 906 5629 them 846 into 1519 the treasury 2878, because 1893 it is 2076 5748 the price 5092 of blood 129.

27:7 And 1161 they took 2983 5631 counsel 4824, and bought 59 5656 with 1537 them 846 the potter's 2763 field 68, to 1519 bury 5027 0 strangers 3581 in 5027.

27:8 Wherefore 1352 that 1565 field 68 was called 2564 5681, The field 68 of blood 129, unto 2193 this day 4594.

27:9 Then 5119 was fulfilled 4137 5681 that which 3588 was spoken 4483 5685 by 1223 Jeremy 2408 the prophet 4396, saying 3004 5723, And 2532 they took 2983 5627 the thirty 5144 pieces of silver 694, the price 5092 of him that was valued 5091 5772, whom 3739 they of 575 the children 5207 of Israel 2474 did value 5091 5668;(whom…: or, whom they bought of the children of Israel)

27:10 And 2532 gave 1325 5656 them 846 for 1519 the potter's 2763 field 68, as 2505 the Lord 2962 appointed 4929 5656 me 3427.

27:11 And 1161 Jesus 2424 stood 2476 5627 before 1715 the governor 2232: and 2532 the governor 2232 asked 1905 5656 him 846, saying 3004 5723, Art 1488 5748 thou 4771 the King 935 of the Jews 2453? And 1161 Jesus 2424 said 5346 5713 unto him 846, Thou 4771 sayest 3004 5719.

27:12 And 2532 when 1722 he 846 was accused 2723 5745 of 5259 the chief priests 749 and 2532 elders 4245, he answered 611 5662 nothing 3762.

27:13 Then 5119 said 3004 5719 Pilate 4091 unto him 846, Hearest thou 191 5719 not 3756 how many things 4214 they witness against 2649 5719 thee 4675?

27:14 And 2532 he answered 3756 611 5662 him 846 to 4314 never 3761 a 1520 word 4487; insomuch 5620 that the governor 2232 marvelled 2296 5721 greatly 3029.

27:15 Now 1161 at 2596 [that] feast 1859 the governor 2232 was wont 1486 5715 to release 630 5721 unto the people 3793 a 1520 prisoner 1198, whom 3739 they would 2309 5707.

27:16 And 1161 they had 2192 5707 then 5119 a notable 1978 prisoner 1198, called 3004 5746 Barabbas 912.

27:17 Therefore 3767 when they 846 were gathered together 4863 5772, Pilate 4091 said 2036 5627 unto them 846, Whom 5101 will ye 2309 5719 that I release 630 5661 unto you 5213? Barabbas 912, or 2228 Jesus 2424 which 3588 is called 3004 5746 Christ 5547?

27:18 For 1063 he knew 1492 5715 that 3754 for 1223 envy 5355 they had delivered 3860 5656 him 846.

27:19 When 1161 he 846 was set down 2521 5740 on 1909 the judgment seat 968, his 846 wife 1135 sent 649 5656 unto 4314 him 846, saying 3004 5723, 2532 Have thou 4671 nothing 3367 to do with that 1565 just man 1342: for 1063 I have suffered 3958 5627 many things 4183 this day 4594 in 2596 a dream 3677 because 1223 of him 846.

27:20 But 1161 the chief priests 749 and 2532 elders 4245 persuaded 3982 5656 the multitude 3793 that 2443 they should ask 154 5672 Barabbas 912, and 1161 destroy 622 5661 Jesus 2424.

27:21 The governor 2232 answered 611 5679 and 1161 said 2036 5627 unto them 846, Whether 5101 of 575 the twain 1417 will ye 2309 5719 that I release 630 5661 unto you 5213? 1161 They said 2036 5627, Barabbas 912.

27:22 Pilate 4091 saith 3004 5719 unto them 846, What 5101 shall I do 4160 5692 then 3767 with Jesus 2424 which 3588 is called 3004 5746 Christ 5547? [They] all 3956 say 3004 5719 unto him 846, Let him be crucified 4717 5682.

27:23 And 1161 the governor 2232 said 5346 5713, Why 1063, what 5101 evil 2556 hath he done 4160 5656? But 1161 they cried out 2896 5707 the more 4057, saying 3004 5723, Let him be crucified 4717 5682.

27:24 When 1161 Pilate 4091 saw 1492 5631 that 3754 he could prevail 5623 5719 nothing 3762, but 235 [that] rather 3123 a tumult 2351 was made 1096 5736, he took 2983 5631 water 5204, and washed 633 5668 [his] hands 5495 before 561 the multitude 3793, saying 3004 5723, I am 1510 5748 innocent 121 of 575 the blood 129 of this 5127 just person 1342: see 3700 5695 ye 5210 [to it].

27:25 Then 2532 answered 611 5679 all 3956 the people 2992, and said 2036 5627, His 846 blood 129 [be] on 1909 us 2248, and 2532 on 1909 our 2257 children 5043.

27:26 Then 5119 released he 630 5656 Barabbas 912 unto them 846: and 1161 when he had scourged 5417 5660 Jesus 2424, he delivered 3860 5656 [him] to 2443 be crucified 4717 5686.

27:27 Then 5119 the soldiers 4757 of the governor 2232 took 3880 5631 Jesus 2424 into 1519 the common hall 4232, and gathered 4863 5627 unto 1909 him 846 the whole 3650 band 4686 [of soldiers].(common hall: or, governor's house)

27:28 And 2532 they stripped 1562 5660 him 846, and put on 4060 5656 him 846 a scarlet 2847 robe 5511.

27:29 And 2532 when they had platted 4120 5660 a crown 4735 of 1537 thorns 173, they put 2007 5656 [it] upon 1909 his 846 head 2776, and 2532 a reed 2563 in 1909 his 846 right hand 1188: and 2532 they bowed the knee 1120 5660 before 1715 him 846, and mocked 1702 5707 him 846, saying 3004 5723, Hail 5463 5720, King 935 of the Jews 2453!

27:30 And 2532 they spit 1716 5660 upon 1519 him 846, and took 2983 5627 the reed 2563, and 2532 smote 5180 5707 him 846 on 1519 the head 2776.

27:31 And 2532 after 3753 that they had mocked 1702 5656 him 846, they took 1562 0 the robe 5511 off 1562 5656 from him 846, and 2532 put 1746 0 his own 846 raiment 2440 on 1746 5656 him 846, and 2532 led 520 0 him 846 away 520 5627 to 1519 crucify 4717 5658 [him].

27:32 And 1161 as they came out 1831 5740, they found 2147 5627 a man 444 of Cyrene 2956, Simon 4613 by name 3686: him 5126 they compelled 29 5656 to 2443 bear 142 5661 his 846 cross 4716.

27:33 And 2532 when they were come 2064 5631 unto 1519 a place 5117 called 3004 5746 Golgotha 1115, that 3739 is 2076 5748 to say 3004 5746, a place 5117 of a skull 2898,

27:34 They gave 1325 5656 him 846 vinegar 3690 to drink 4095 5629 mingled 3396 5772 with 3326 gall 5521: and 2532 when he had tasted 1089 5666 [thereof], he would 2309 5707 not 3756 drink 4095 5629.

27:35 And 1161 they crucified 4717 5660 him 846, and parted 1266 5668 his 846 garments 2440, casting 906 5723 lots 2819: that 2443 it might be fulfilled 4137 5686 which 3588 was spoken 4483 5685 by 5259 the prophet 4396, They parted 1266 5668 my 3450 garments 2440 among them 1438, and 2532 upon 1909 my 3450 vesture 2441 did they cast 906 5627 lots 2819.

27:36 And 2532 sitting down 2521 5740 they watched 5083 5707 him 846 there 1563;

27:37 And 2532 set up 2007 5656 over 1883 his 846 head 2776 his 846 accusation 156 written 1125 5772, THIS 3778 IS 2076 5748 JESUS 2424 THE KING 935 OF THE JEWS 2453.

27:38 Then 5119 were there two 1417 thieves 3027 crucified 4717 5743 with 4862 him 846, one 1520 on 1537 the right hand 1188, and 2532 another 1520 on 1537 the left 2176.

27:39 And 1161 they that passed by 3899 5740 reviled 987 5707 him 846, wagging 2795 5723 their 846 heads 2776,

27:40 And 2532 saying 3004 5723, Thou that destroyest 2647 5723 the temple 3485, and 2532 buildest 3618 5723 [it] in 1722 three 5140 days 2250, save 4982 5657 thyself 4572. If 1487 thou be 1488 5748 the Son 5207 of God 2316, come down 2597 5628 from 575 the cross 4716.

27:41 1161 Likewise 3668 also 2532 the chief priests 749 mocking 1702 5723 [him], with 3326 the scribes 1122 and 2532 elders 4245, said 3004 5707,

27:42 He saved 4982 5656 others 243; himself 1438 he cannot 3756 1410 5736 save 4982 5658. If 1487 he be 2076 5748 the King 935 of Israel 2474, let him 2597 0 now 3568 come down 2597 5628 from 575 the cross 4716, and 2532 we will believe 4100 5692 him 846.

27:43 He trusted 3982 5754 in 1909 God 2316; let him deliver 4506 5663 him 846 now 3568, if 1487 he will have 2309 5719 him 846: for 1063 he said 2036 5627, 3754 I am 1510 5748 the Son 5207 of God 2316.

27:44 1161 The thieves 3027 also 2532, which 3588 were crucified 4957 5685 with him 846, cast 3679 0 the same 846 in his 846 teeth 3679 5707.

27:45 Now 1161 from 575 the sixth 1623 hour 5610 there was 1096 5633 darkness 4655 over 1909 all 3956 the land 1093 unto 2193 the ninth 1766 hour 5610.

27:46 And 1161 about 4012 the ninth 1766 hour 5610 Jesus 2424 cried 310 5656 with a loud 3173 voice 5456, saying 3004 5723, Eli 2241, Eli 2241, lama 2982 sabachthani 4518? that 5123 5748 is to say, My 3450 God 2316, my 3450 God 2316, why 2444 hast thou forsaken 1459 5627 me 3165?

27:47 1161 Some of them 5100 that stood 2476 5761 there 1563, when they heard 191 5660 [that], said 3004 5707 3754, This 3778 [man] calleth for 5455 5719 Elias 2243.

27:48 And 2532 straightway 2112 one 1520 of 1537 them 846 ran 5143 5631, and 2532 took 2983 5631 a spunge 4699, and 5037 filled 4130 5660 [it] with vinegar 3690, and 2532 put [it] on 4060 5631 a reed 2563, and gave 4222 0 him 846 to drink 4222 5707.

27:49 The 1161 rest 3062 said 3004 5707, Let be 863 5628, let us see 1492 5632 whether 1487 Elias 2243 will come 2064 5736 to save 4982 5694 him 846.

27:50 1161 Jesus 2424, when he had cried 2896 5660 again 3825 with a loud 3173 voice 5456, yielded up 863 5656 the ghost 4151.

27:51 And 2532, behold 2400 5628, the veil 2665 of the temple 3485 was rent 4977 5681 in 1519 twain 1417 from 575 the top 509 to 2193 the bottom 2736; and 2532 the earth 1093 did quake 4579 5681, and 2532 the rocks 4073 rent 4977 5681;

27:52 And 2532 the graves 3419 were opened 455 5681; and 2532 many 4183 bodies 4983 of the saints 40 which 3588 slept 2837 5772 arose 1453 5681,

27:53 And 2532 came 1831 5631 out of 1537 the graves 3419 after 3326 his 846 resurrection 1454, and went 1525 5627 into 1519 the holy 40 city 4172, and 2532 appeared 1718 5681 unto many 4183.

27:54 Now 1161 when the centurion 1543, and 2532 they that were with 3326 him 846, watching 5083 5723 Jesus 2424, saw 1492 5631 the earthquake 4578, and 2532 those things that were done 1096 5637, they feared 5399 5675 greatly 4970, saying 3004 5723, Truly 230 this 3778 was 2258 5713 the Son 5207 of God 2316.

27:55 And 1161 many 4183 women 1135 were 2258 5713 there 1563 beholding 2334 5723 afar off 575 3113, which 3748 followed 190 5656 Jesus 2424 from 575 Galilee 1056, ministering 1247 5723 unto him 846:

27:56 Among 1722 which 3739 was 2258 5713 Mary 3137 Magdalene 3094, and 2532 Mary 3137 the mother 3384 of James 2385 and 2532 Joses 2500, and 2532 the mother 3384 of Zebedee's 2199 children 5207.

27:57 When 1161 the even 3798 was come 1096 5637, there came 2064 5627 a rich 4145 man 444 of 575 Arimathaea 707, named 5122 Joseph 2501, who 3739 also 2532 himself 846 was 3100 0 Jesus' 2424 disciple 3100 5656:

27:58 He 3778 went 4334 5631 to Pilate 4091, and begged 154 5668 the body 4983 of Jesus 2424. Then 5119 Pilate 4091 commanded 2753 5656 the body 4983 to be delivered 591 5683.

27:59 And 2532 when Joseph 2501 had taken 2983 5631 the body 4983, he wrapped 1794 5656 it 846 in a clean 2513 linen cloth 4616,

27:60 And 2532 laid 5087 5656 it 846 in 1722 his own 846 new 2537 tomb 3419, which 3739 he had hewn out 2998 5656 in 1722 the rock 4073: and 2532 he rolled 4351 5660 a great 3173 stone 3037 to the door 2374 of the sepulchre 3419, and departed 565 5627.

27:61 And 1161 there 1563 was 2258 5713 Mary 3137 Magdalene 3094, and 2532 the other 243 Mary 3137, sitting 2521 5740 over against 561 the sepulchre 5028.

27:62 Now 1161 the next day 1887, that 3748 followed 2076 5748 3326 the day of the preparation 3904, the chief priests 749 and 2532 Pharisees 5330 came together 4863 5681 unto 4314 Pilate 4091,

27:63 Saying 3004 5723, Sir 2962, we remember 3415 5681 that 3754 that 1565 deceiver 4108 said 2036 5627, while he was yet 2089 alive 2198 5723, After 3326 three 5140 days 2250 I will rise again 1453 5743.

27:64 Command 2753 5657 therefore 3767 that the sepulchre 5028 be made sure 805 5683 until 2193 the third 5154 day 2250, lest 3379 his 846 disciples 3101 come 2064 5631 by night 3571, and steal 2813 0 him 846 away 2813 5661, and 2532 say 2036 5632 unto the people 2992, He is risen 1453 5681 from 575 the dead 3498: so 2532 the last 2078 error 4106 shall be 2071 5704 worse than 5501 the first 4413.

27:65 1161 Pilate 4091 said 5346 5713 unto them 846, Ye have 2192 5719 a watch 2892: go your way 5217 5720, make [it] as sure 805 5663 as 5613 ye can 1492 5758.

27:66 So 1161 they went 4198 5679, and made 805 0 the sepulchre 5028 sure 805 5662, sealing 4972 5660 the stone 3037, and setting 3326 a watch 2892.
