1When morning came, all the chief priests and elders of the people conspired against Jesus to put Him to death.

1When morning came, all the high priests and elders of the people conspired against Jesus to put him to death.

2They bound Him, led Him away, and handed Him over to Pilate the governor.

2They bound him with chains, led him away, and handed him over to Pontius Pilate, the governor.

3When Judas, who had betrayed Him, saw that Jesus was condemned, he was filled with remorse and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders.

3Then Judas, who had betrayed him, regretted what had happened when he saw that Jesus was condemned. He brought the 30 pieces of silver back to the high priests and elders,

4“I have sinned by betraying innocent blood,” he said. “What is that to us?” they replied. “You bear the responsibility.”

4saying, "I have sinned by betraying innocent blood." But they replied, "What do we care? Attend to that yourself."

5So Judas threw the silver into the temple and left. Then he went away and hanged himself.

5Then he flung the pieces of silver into the sanctuary, went outside, ran away, and hanged himself.

6The chief priests picked up the pieces of silver and said, “It is unlawful to put this into the treasury, since it is blood money.”

6The high priests picked up the pieces of silver and said, "It is not lawful to put this into the Temple treasury, because it is blood money."

7After conferring together, they used the money to buy the potter’s field as a burial place for foreigners.

7So they decided to use the money to buy the Potter's Field as a burial ground for foreigners.

8That is why it has been called the Field of Blood to this day.

9Then what was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled: “They took the thirty pieces of silver, the price set on Him by the people of Israel,

9Then what had been declared through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled when he said, "They took the 30 pieces of silver, the value of the man on whom a price had been set by the Israelis,

10and they gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord had commanded me.”

10and they gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord commanded me."

11Meanwhile Jesus stood before the governor, who questioned Him: “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied.

11Meanwhile, Jesus was made to stand in front of the governor. The governor asked him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" Jesus said, "You say so."

12And when He was accused by the chief priests and elders, He gave no answer.

12While Jesus was being accused by the high priests and elders, he made no reply.

13Then Pilate asked Him, “Do You not hear how many charges they are bringing against You?”

13Then Pilate asked him, "Don't you hear how many charges they're bringing against you?"

14But Jesus gave no answer, not even to a single charge, much to the governor’s amazement.

14But Jesus did not reply at all, so that the governor was very surprised.

15Now it was the governor’s custom at the feast to release to the crowd a prisoner of their choosing.

15At every festival the governor had a custom of releasing to the crowd any prisoner whom they wanted.

16At that time they were holding a notorious prisoner named Barabbas.

17So when the crowd had assembled, Pilate asked them, “Which one do you want me to release to you: Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?”

17So when the people had gathered, Pilate asked them, "Which man do you want me to release for you—Barabbas, or Jesus who is called 'the Messiah'?"

18For he knew it was out of envy that they had handed Jesus over to him.

18He did this because he knew that they had handed him over out of jealousy.

19While Pilate was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent him this message: “Have nothing to do with that innocent man, for I have suffered terribly in a dream today because of Him.”

19While he was sitting on the judge's seat, his wife sent him a message that said, "Have nothing to do with that righteous man, because today I have suffered terribly due to a dream I had about him."

20But the chief priests and elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus put to death.

20But the high priests and elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas and to demand that Jesus be put to death.

21“Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” asked the governor. “Barabbas,” they replied.

21So the governor asked them, "Which of the two men do you want me to release for you?" "Barabbas!" they replied.

22“What then should I do with Jesus who is called Christ?” Pilate asked. They all answered, “Crucify Him!”

22Pilate asked them, "Then what should I do with Jesus, who is called the Messiah?" They all said, "Let him be crucified!"

23“Why?” asked Pilate. “What evil has He done?” But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify Him!”

23He asked, "What has he done wrong?" But they kept shouting louder and louder, "Let him be crucified!"

24When Pilate saw that he was accomplishing nothing, but that instead a riot was breaking out, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd. “I am innocent of this man’s blood,” he said. “You bear the responsibility.”

24Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere, but that a riot was about to break out instead. So he took some water and washed his hands in front of the crowd, saying, "I am innocent of this man's blood. Attend to that yourselves."

25All the people answered, “His blood be on us and on our children!”

25All the people answered, "Let his blood be on us and our children!"

26So Pilate released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged, and handed Him over to be crucified.

26Then he released Barabbas for them, but he had Jesus whipped and handed over to be crucified.

27Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium and gathered the whole company around Him.

28They stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him.

29And they twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on His head. They put a staff in His right hand and knelt down before Him to mock Him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”

29Twisting some thorns into a victor's crown, they placed it on his head and put a stick in his right hand. They knelt down in front of him and began making fun of him, saying, "Long live the king of the Jews!"

30Then they spit on Him and took the staff and struck Him on the head repeatedly.

30Then they spit on him and took the stick and hit him repeatedly on his head.

31After they had mocked Him, they removed the robe and put His own clothes back on Him. Then they led Him away to crucify Him.

31When they had finished making fun of him, they stripped him of the robe, put his own clothes back on him, and led him away to crucify him.

32Along the way they found a man from Cyrene, named Simon, and they forced him to carry the cross of Jesus.

32As they were leaving, they found a man from Cyrene named Simon, whom they forced to carry Jesus' cross.

33And when they came to a place called Golgotha, which means The Place of the Skull,

34they offered Him wine to drink, mixed with gall; but after tasting it, He refused to drink it.

35When they had crucified Him, they divided up His garments by casting lots.

35After they had crucified him, they determined who would get his clothes by throwing dice for them.

36And sitting down, they kept watch over Him there.

36Then they sat down there and continued guarding him.

37Above His head they posted the written charge against Him: THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

37Above his head they placed the charge against him. It read, "This is Jesus, the king of the Jews."

38Two robbers were crucified with Him, one on His right hand and the other on His left.

38At that time two bandits were crucified with him, one on his right and the other on his left.

39And those who passed by heaped abuse on Him, shaking their heads

39Those who passed by kept insulting him, shaking their heads,

40and saying, “You who are going to destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross!”

40and saying, "You who were going to destroy the sanctuary and rebuild it in three days—save yourself! If you're the Son of God, come down from the cross!"

41In the same way, the chief priests, scribes, and elders mocked Him, saying,

41In the same way the high priests, along with the scribes and elders, were also making fun of him. They kept saying,

42“He saved others, but He cannot save Himself. He is the King of Israel! Let Him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in Him.

42"He saved others but can't save himself! He is the king of Israel. Let him come down from the cross now, and we will believe in him.

43He trusts in God. Let God deliver Him now if He wants Him. For He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ”

43He trusts in God. Let God rescue him, if he wants to do so now. After all, he said, 'I am the Son of God.'"

44In the same way, even the robbers who were crucified with Him berated Him.

44In a similar way, the bandits who were being crucified with him kept insulting him.

45From the sixth hour until the ninth hour darkness came over all the land.

46About three o'clock, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, "Eli, eli, lema sabachthani?", which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"

47When some of those standing there heard this, they said, “He is calling Elijah.”

47When some of the people standing there heard this, they said, "He's calling for Elijah."

48One of them quickly ran and brought a sponge. He filled it with sour wine, put it on a reed, and held it up for Jesus to drink.

48So one of the men ran off at once, took a sponge, and soaked it in some sour wine. Then he put it on a stick and offered Jesus a drink.

49But the others said, “Leave Him alone. Let us see if Elijah comes to save Him.”

49But the others kept saying, "Wait! Let's see if Elijah will come and save him."

50When Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, He yielded up His spirit.

50Then Jesus cried out with a loud voice again and died.

51At that moment the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth quaked and the rocks were split.

63“Sir,” they said, “we remember that while He was alive that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise again.’

63and said, "Sir, we remember how that impostor said while he was still alive, 'I will be raised after three days.'

64So give the order that the tomb be secured until the third day. Otherwise, His disciples may come and steal Him away and tell the people He has risen from the dead. And this last deception would be worse than the first.”

64Therefore, order the tomb to be secured until the third day, or his disciples may go and steal him and then tell the people, 'He has been raised from the dead.' Then the last deception would be worse than the first one."

65“You have a guard,” Pilate said. “Go, make the tomb as secure as you know how.”

65Pilate told them, "You have a military guard. Go and make the tomb as secure as you know how."

66So they went and secured the tomb by sealing the stone and posting the guard.
