	GENEVA Geneva Bible of 1587	ESV English Standard Version	NIV New International Version
1	Then Pilate tooke Iesus & scourged him.	Then Pilate took Jesus and flogged him.	Then Pilate took Jesus and had him flogged.
2	And the souldiers platted a crowne of thornes, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple garment,	And the soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on his head and arrayed him in a purple robe.	The soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on his head. They clothed him in a purple robe
3	And saide, Haile, King of the Iewes; they smote him with their roddes.	They came up to him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and struck him with their hands.	and went up to him again and again, saying, “Hail, king of the Jews!” And they slapped him in the face.
4	Then Pilate went foorth againe, and said vnto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may knowe, that I finde no fault in him at all.	Pilate went out again and said to them, “See, I am bringing him out to you that you may know that I find no guilt in him.”	Once more Pilate came out and said to the Jews gathered there, “Look, I am bringing him out to you to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against him.”
5	Then came Iesus foorth wearing a crowne of thornes, and a purple garment; Pilate said vnto them, Beholde the man.	So Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. Pilate said to them, “Behold the man!”	When Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, “Here is the man!”
6	Then when the hie Priests & officers sawe him, they cried, saying, Crucifie, crucifie him. Pilate said vnto them, Take yee him and crucifie him: for I finde no fault in him.	When the chief priests and the officers saw him, they cried out, “Crucify him, crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Take him yourselves and crucify him, for I find no guilt in him.”	As soon as the chief priests and their officials saw him, they shouted, “Crucify! Crucify!” But Pilate answered, “You take him and crucify him. As for me, I find no basis for a charge against him.”
7	The Iewes answered him, We haue a lawe, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himselfe the Sonne of God.	The Jews answered him, “We have a law, and according to that law he ought to die because he has made himself the Son of God.”	The Jewish leaders insisted, “We have a law, and according to that law he must die, because he claimed to be the Son of God.”
8	When Pilate then heard that woorde, he was the more afraide,	When Pilate heard this statement, he was even more afraid.	When Pilate heard this, he was even more afraid,
9	And went againe into the common hall, and saide vnto Iesus, Whence art thou? But Iesus gaue him none answere.	He entered his headquarters again and said to Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus gave him no answer.	and he went back inside the palace. “Where do you come from?” he asked Jesus, but Jesus gave him no answer.
10	Then saide Pilate vnto him, Speakest thou not vnto me? Knowest thou not that I haue power to crucifie thee, & haue power to loose thee?	So Pilate said to him, “You will not speak to me? Do you not know that I have authority to release you and authority to crucify you?”	“Do you refuse to speak to me?” Pilate said. “Don’t you realize I have power either to free you or to crucify you?”
11	Iesus answered, Thou couldest haue no power at all against me, except it were giuen thee from aboue: therefore he that deliuered me vnto thee, hath the greater sinne.	Jesus answered him, “You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been given you from above. Therefore he who delivered me over to you has the greater sin.”	Jesus answered, “You would have no power over me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed me over to you is guilty of a greater sin.”
12	From thence foorth Pilate sought to loose him, but the Iewes cried, saying, If thou deliuer him, thou art not Cesars friende: for whosoeuer maketh himselfe a King, speaketh against Cesar.	From then on Pilate sought to release him, but the Jews cried out, “If you release this man, you are not Caesar’s friend. Everyone who makes himself a king opposes Caesar.”	From then on, Pilate tried to set Jesus free, but the Jewish leaders kept shouting, “If you let this man go, you are no friend of Caesar. Anyone who claims to be a king opposes Caesar.”
13	When Pilate heard this woorde, hee brought Iesus foorth, & sate downe in the iudgement seate in a place called the Pauement, and in Hebrewe, Gabbatha.	So when Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called The Stone Pavement, and in Aramaic Gabbatha.	When Pilate heard this, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judge’s seat at a place known as the Stone Pavement (which in Aramaic is Gabbatha).
14	And it was the Preparation of the Passeouer, and about the sixt houre: and hee sayde vnto the Iewes, Beholde your King.	Now it was the day of Preparation of the Passover. It was about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, “Behold your King!”	It was the day of Preparation of the Passover; it was about noon. “Here is your king,” Pilate said to the Jews.
15	But they cried, Away with him, away with him, crucifie him. Pilate sayde vnto them, Shall I crucifie your King? The high Priestes answered, We haue no King but Cesar.	They cried out, “Away with him, away with him, crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Shall I crucify your King?” The chief priests answered, “We have no king but Caesar.”	But they shouted, “Take him away! Take him away! Crucify him!” “Shall I crucify your king?” Pilate asked. “We have no king but Caesar,” the chief priests answered.
16	Then deliuered he him vnto them, to be crucified. And they tooke Iesus, and led him away.	So he delivered him over to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus,	Finally Pilate handed him over to them to be crucified. So the soldiers took charge of Jesus.
17	And he bare his owne crosse, and came into a place named of dead mens Skulles, which is called in Hebrewe, Golgotha:	and he went out, bearing his own cross, to the place called The Place of a Skull, which in Aramaic is called Golgotha.	Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha).
18	Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Iesus in the middes.	There they crucified him, and with him two others, one on either side, and Jesus between them.	There they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side and Jesus in the middle.
19	And Pilate wrote also a title, and put it on the crosse, and it was written, Iesvs Of Nazareth The King Of The Iewes.	Pilate also wrote an inscription and put it on the cross. It read, “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.”	Pilate had a notice prepared and fastened to the cross. It read: jesus of nazareth, the king of the jews.
20	This title then read many of the Iewes: for the place where Iesus was crucified, was neere to the citie: and it was written in Hebrewe, Greeke and Latine.	Many of the Jews read this inscription, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Aramaic, in Latin, and in Greek.	Many of the Jews read this sign, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and the sign was written in Aramaic, Latin and Greek.
21	Then saide the hie Priests of the Iewes to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Iewes, but that he sayd, I am King of the Iewes.	So the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but rather, ‘This man said, I am King of the Jews.’”	The chief priests of the Jews protested to Pilate, “Do not write ‘The King of the Jews,’ but that this man claimed to be king of the Jews.”
22	Pilate answered, What I haue written, I haue written.	Pilate answered, “What I have written I have written.”	Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
23	Then the souldiers, when they had crucified Iesus, tooke his garments (and made foure partes, to euery souldier a part) and his coat: and the coat was without seame wouen from the toppe throughout.	When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his garments and divided them into four parts, one part for each soldier; also his tunic. But the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom,	When the soldiers crucified Jesus, they took his clothes, dividing them into four shares, one for each of them, with the undergarment remaining. This garment was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom.
24	Therefore they sayde one to another, Let vs not deuide it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be. This was that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which sayth, They parted my garments among them, and on my coate did cast lots. So the souldiers did these things in deede.	so they said to one another, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to see whose it shall be.” This was to fulfill the Scripture which says, “They divided my garments among them, and for my clothing they cast lots.” So the soldiers did these things,	“Let’s not tear it,” they said to one another. “Let’s decide by lot who will get it.” This happened that the scripture might be fulfilled that said, “They divided my clothes among them and cast lots for my garment.” So this is what the soldiers did.
25	Then stoode by the crosse of Iesus his mother, and his mothers sister, Marie the wife of Cleopas, and Marie Magdalene.	but standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.	Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.
26	And when Iesus sawe his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loued, he said vnto his mother, Woman, beholde thy sonne.	When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son!”	When Jesus saw his mother there, and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to her, “Woman, here is your son,”
27	Then saide he to the disciple, Beholde thy mother: and from that houre, the disciple tooke her home vnto him.	Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.	and to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” From that time on, this disciple took her into his home.
28	After, when Iesus knew that all things were performed, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, he said, I thirst.	After this, Jesus, knowing that all was now finished, said (to fulfill the Scripture), “I thirst.”	Later, knowing that everything had now been finished, and so that Scripture would be fulfilled, Jesus said, “I am thirsty.”
29	And there was set a vessell full of vineger: and they filled a spondge with vineger: and put it about an Hyssope stalke, and put it to his mouth.	A jar full of sour wine stood there, so they put a sponge full of the sour wine on a hyssop branch and held it to his mouth.	A jar of wine vinegar was there, so they soaked a sponge in it, put the sponge on a stalk of the hyssop plant, and lifted it to Jesus’ lips.
30	Nowe when Iesus had receiued of the vineger, he saide, It is finished, and bowed his head, and gaue vp the ghost.	When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished,” and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.	When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
31	The Iewes then (because it was the Preparation, that the bodies should not remaine vpon the crosse on the Sabbath day: for that Sabbath was an hie day) besought Pilate that their legges might be broken, and that they might be taken downe.	Since it was the day of Preparation, and so that the bodies would not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken away.	Now it was the day of Preparation, and the next day was to be a special Sabbath. Because the Jewish leaders did not want the bodies left on the crosses during the Sabbath, they asked Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies taken down.
32	Then came the souldiers and brake the legges of the first, and of the other, which was crucified with Iesus.	So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who had been crucified with him.	The soldiers therefore came and broke the legs of the first man who had been crucified with Jesus, and then those of the other.
33	But when they came to Iesus, and saw that he was dead alreadie, they brake not his legges.	But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.	But when they came to Jesus and found that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.
34	But one of the souldiers with a speare pearced his side, and foorthwith came there out blood and water.	But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once there came out blood and water.	Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus’ side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water.
35	And he that sawe it, bare recorde, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might beleeue it.	He who saw it has borne witness—his testimony is true, and he knows that he is telling the truth—that you also may believe.	The man who saw it has given testimony, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, and he testifies so that you also may believe.
36	For these things were done, that the Scripture shoulde be fulfilled, Not a bone of him shalbe broken.	For these things took place that the Scripture might be fulfilled: “Not one of his bones will be broken.”	These things happened so that the scripture would be fulfilled: “Not one of his bones will be broken,”
37	And againe an other Scripture saith, They shall see him whom they haue thrust through.	And again another Scripture says, “They will look on him whom they have pierced.”	and, as another scripture says, “They will look on the one they have pierced.”
38	And after these things, Ioseph of Arimathea (who was a disciple of Iesus, but secretly for feare of the Iewes) besought Pilate that he might take downe the bodie of Iesus; Pilate gaue him licence. He came then and tooke Iesus body.	After these things Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave him permission. So he came and took away his body.	Later, Joseph of Arimathea asked Pilate for the body of Jesus. Now Joseph was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly because he feared the Jewish leaders. With Pilate’s permission, he came and took the body away.
39	And there came also Nicodemus (which first came to Iesus by night) & brought of myrrhe and aloes mingled together about an hundreth pound.	Nicodemus also, who earlier had come to Jesus by night, came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds in weight.	He was accompanied by Nicodemus, the man who earlier had visited Jesus at night. Nicodemus brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds.
40	Then tooke they the body of Iesus, and wrapped it in linnen clothes with the odours, as the maner of the Iewes is to burie.	So they took the body of Jesus and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as is the burial custom of the Jews.	Taking Jesus’ body, the two of them wrapped it, with the spices, in strips of linen. This was in accordance with Jewish burial customs.
41	And in that place where Iesus was crucified, was a garden, and in the garden a newe sepulchre, wherein was neuer man yet laid.	Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid.	At the place where Jesus was crucified, there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid.
42	There then laide they Iesus, because of the Iewes Preparation day, for the sepulchre was neere.	So because of the Jewish day of Preparation, since the tomb was close at hand, they laid Jesus there.	Because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and since the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there.
