John 19
1 Then Pilate tooke Iesus and scourged him.
So Pilate then took Jesus, and flogged him.
2 And the souldiers platted a crowne of thornes, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple garment,
The soldiers twisted thorns into a crown, and put it on his head, and dressed him in a purple garment.
3 And saide, Haile, King of the Iewes. And they smote him with their roddes.
And they kept coming up to him and saying, "Greetings, King of the Jews." and they struck him with their hands.
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.
Then Pilate went out again, and said to them, "Look, I am bringing him out to you, that you may 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. And Pilate said vnto them, Beholde the man.
Then Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. And he said to them, "Look, here is the man."
6 Then when the hie Priests and 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 therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they shouted, saying, "Crucify. Crucify." Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves, and crucify him, for 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 Jewish leaders answered him, "We have a law, and by that law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God."
8 When Pilate then heard that woorde, he was the more afraide,
When therefore Pilate heard this saying, he was 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 into the Praetorium again, and said to Jesus, "Where are you from?" 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, and haue power to loose thee?
Pilate therefore said to him, "Are you not speaking to me? Do you not know that I have power to release you, and have power 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, "You would have no power at all against me, unless it were given to you from above. Therefore he who delivered me to you has 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.
At this, Pilate was seeking to release him, but the Jewish leaders shouted, saying, "If you release this man, you are not Caesar's friend. Everyone who makes himself a king speaks against Caesar."
13 When Pilate heard this woorde, hee brought Iesus foorth, and sate downe in the iudgement seate in a place called the Pauement, and in Hebrewe, Gabbatha.
When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Jesus out, and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called "The Pavement," but in Hebrew, "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 Preparation Day of the Passover, at about noon. He said to the Jewish leaders, "Look, here is your King."
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 shouted, "Away with him. Away with him. Crucify him." Pilate said to them, "Should I crucify your King?" The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar."
16 Then deliuered he him vnto them, to be crucified. And they tooke Iesus, and led him away.
So then he delivered him to them to be crucified. So they took 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, carrying the cross himself, to the place called "The Place of a Skull," which is called in Hebrew, "Golgotha,"
18 Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Iesus in the middes.
where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the middle.
19 And Pilate wrote also a title, and put it on the crosse, and it was written, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWES.
Pilate wrote a title also, and put it on the cross. There was written, "JESUS THE NAZOREAN, 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.
Therefore many Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in 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.
The chief priests of the Jewish people therefore said to Pilate, "Do not write, 'The King of the Jews,' but, 'he said, I am King of the Jews.'"
22 Pilate answered, What I haue written, I haue 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.
Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his clothes and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
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.
Then they said to one another, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to decide whose it will be," that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which says, "They divided my clothes among themselves, and for my clothing they cast a lot." Therefore the soldiers did these things.
25 Then stoode by the crosse of Iesus his mother, and his mothers sister, Marie the wife of Cleopas, and Marie Magdalene.
But there were standing by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleopas, 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.
Therefore when Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing there, he said to his mother, "Woman, look, 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, "Look, your mother." From that hour, the disciple took her to his own 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 things were now finished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, 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 vessel full of sour wine was set there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop, and held it at his mouth.
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 therefore had received the vinegar, he said, "It is finished." 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.
Therefore the Jewish leaders, because it was the Preparation Day, so that the bodies would not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
32 Then came the souldiers and brake the legges of the first, and of the other, which was crucified with Iesus.
Therefore the soldiers came, and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who was crucified with him;
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.
34 But one of the souldiers with a speare pearced his side, and foorthwith came there out blood and water.
However one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.
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 has seen has testified, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, that you may believe.
36 For these things were done, that the Scripture shoulde be fulfilled, Not a bone of him shalbe broken.
For these things happened, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, "A bone of him will not be broken."
37 And againe an other Scripture saith, They shall see him whom they haue thrust through.
Again another Scripture says, "They will look on him whom they 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. And Pilate gaue him licence. He came then and tooke Iesus body.
After these things, Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jewish leaders, asked of Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission. He came therefore and took away his body.
39 And there came also Nicodemus (which first came to Iesus by night) and brought of myrrhe and aloes mingled together about an hundreth pound.
Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came bringing 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, according to Jewish burial practice.
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. In the garden was a new tomb in which no one had ever yet been placed.
42 There then laide they Iesus, because of the Iewes Preparation day, for the sepulchre was neere.
Then because of the Jewish Preparation Day (for the tomb was nearby) they put Jesus there.
