Mark 15
1 Very early in the morning the chief priests met together with [the rest of] the Jewish council, [in order to decide how to accuse Jesus before the Roman governor. Their guards] tied Jesus’ hands [again]. They took him to [the house of] Pilate, [the governor, and they started to accuse him, saying] “[Jesus is claiming that he is a king!]!”
Pagi-pagi sekali seluruh sidang Mahkamah Agama— yaitu imam-imam kepala, pemimpin-pemimpin Yahudi, dan ahli-ahli Taurat— mengatur rencana untuk membunuh Yesus dengan cara memperalat pejabat-pejabat pemerintah Romawi. Lalu mereka mengikat Dia dan menyerahkan-Nya kepada Gubernur Pilatus.
2 Pilate asked Jesus, “Do you [claim to be] the king of the Jews?” Jesus answered him, “You yourself have said so.”
Pilatus bertanya kepada Yesus, “Benarkah kamu ini raja orang Yahudi?” Jawab-Nya, “Begitulah katamu.”
3 Then the chief priests claimed that Jesus had done many bad things.
Kemudian para imam kepala melaporkan banyak tuduhan tentang kesalahan Yesus.
4 So Pilate asked him again, “Don’t you have anything to say? Listen to how many bad things they are saying that you [have done]!”
Pilatus bertanya lagi kepada-Nya, “Apakah kamu tidak mau menjawab? Dengarlah betapa banyaknya tuduhan mereka atasmu!”
5 But [even though Jesus was not guilty], he did not say anything more. The result was that Pilate was very much surprised.
Tetapi Yesus tidak menjawab apa-apa, sehingga Pilatus sangat heran.
6 It was the governor’s custom [each year] during the [Passover] celebration to release [one person who was in prison. He customarily released] whichever prisoner the people requested.
Tiap tahun pada Hari Raya Paskah di Yerusalem, sudah menjadi kebiasaan bahwa gubernur membebaskan satu orang dari penjara sesuai permintaan masyarakat.
7 [At that time] there was a man called Barabbas who had been {whom [the soldiers had]} [put in prison with some other men]. Those men had murdered [some soldiers] when they rebelled [against the Roman government].
Karena kebiasaan itu, banyak orang sudah berkumpul di istana Pilatus dan mulai berteriak meminta dia membebaskan seorang tahanan. Kebetulan waktu itu di dalam penjara ada seorang bernama Barabas. Dia ditahan bersama sejumlah orang lain karena melakukan kerusuhan melawan pemerintah Romawi. Dalam kerusuhan itu Barabas sudah membunuh seseorang.
8 A crowd approached [Pilate] and asked him [to release someone], just like he customarily did for them [during the Passover celebration].
9 Pilate answered them, “Would you like me to release for you the [man whom you] Jewish [people say is your] king?”
Lalu Pilatus bertanya kepada orang banyak, “Apakah kalian mau saya membebaskan raja orang Yahudi ini bagi kalian?”
10 [He asked this] because he realized what the chief priests were wanting to do. They were accusing Jesus because they were jealous of him [because many people were becoming his disciples].
Pilatus sengaja berkata begitu karena dia sudah tahu bahwa para imam kepala iri hati kepada Yesus. Dia tahu bahwa alasan itulah yang membuat mereka menyerahkan Yesus kepadanya.
11 But the chief priests urged the crowd [to request] that Pilate release Barabbas for them instead [of Jesus].
Tetapi atas bujukan para imam kepala, orang banyak itu malah meminta Pilatus membebaskan Barabas, bukan Yesus.
12 Pilate said to them again, “[If I release Barabbas], what do you want me to do with the man whom [some of] you Jews say is [your] king?”
Lalu Pilatus bertanya sekali lagi kepada mereka, “Kalau begitu, apa yang kalian mau saya lakukan terhadap Yesus yang kalian sebut ‘raja orang Yahudi’ ini?”
13 Then they shouted again, “[Command that your soldiers] crucify him!”
Mereka berteriak, “Salibkan dia!”
14 Then Pilate said to them, “Why? What crime has he committed?” But they shouted even louder, “[Command your soldiers to] crucify him!”
Sekali lagi Pilatus bertanya kepada mereka, “Mengapa? Kesalahan apa yang sudah dia perbuat?” Tetapi mereka semakin keras berteriak-teriak, “Salibkan dia!”
15 So, because Pilate wanted to please the crowd, he released Barabbas for them. Then, after [his soldiers] had whipped Jesus with leather straps into which they had fastened metal pieces, [Pilate told the soldiers to take him away] in order that he would be crucified {they would crucify him}.
Karena Pilatus ingin orang banyak itu senang kepadanya, dia pun melepaskan Barabas untuk mereka. Lalu dia menyerahkan Yesus kepada tentara-tentaranya untuk dicambuk dan disalibkan.
16 The soldiers took Jesus into the [courtyard of the] palace [where Pilate lived]. That place was the government headquarters. Then they summoned the whole (cohort/group of soldiers) [who were on duty there].
Tentara-tentara itu membawa Yesus masuk ke markas mereka yang berada di bagian dalam istana gubernur, dan mereka memanggil semua tentara yang lain untuk berkumpul di sana.
17 [After the soldiers gathered together], they put a purple robe on Jesus. Then they placed on his head a crown that they made from [branches of] thornbushes. [They did those things in order to ridicule him by pretending that he was a king].
Mereka mengejek Yesus sesuai dengan tuduhan bahwa Dia adalah raja orang Yahudi. Mereka mengganti jubah yang Yesus pakai dengan jubah komandan mereka yang berwarna ungu, karena warna itulah yang biasanya dipakai oleh raja. Mereka juga membuat mahkota berduri dari ranting tumbuhan merambat dan memasangnya di kepala Yesus.
18 Then they greeted him [like they would greet a king, in order to ridicule him], saying, “Hooray for the King [who rules] the Jews!”
Lalu mereka pura-pura memberi hormat kepada Yesus dengan berseru, “Yang mulia, raja orang Yahudi!”
19 They repeatedly struck his head with a reed and spat on him. By kneeling down, they [pretended to honor] him.
Kemudian mereka memukuli kepala Yesus dengan tongkat dan ada juga yang meludahi Dia. Sebagian tentara lain pura-pura memberi hormat dengan berlutut di depan Yesus.
20 When they had finished ridiculing him, they pulled off the purple robe. They put his own clothes on him, and then they led him outside [of the city] in order to nail him to a cross.
Sesudah mengejek Dia seperti itu, mereka melepaskan jubah ungu tadi dan menggantinya dengan pakaian Yesus sendiri. Lalu mereka membawa Dia keluar untuk disalibkan.
21 [After Jesus carried his cross a short distance], a man named Simon from Cyrene [city came along]. He was the father of Alexander and Rufus. He was passing by while he was returning [home] from outside [the city. The soldiers] compelled Simon to carry the cross [for Jesus].
Dalam perjalanan ke tempat penyaliban, mereka bertemu dengan seorang Kirene yang baru kembali dari luar kota. Orang itu bernama Simon, ayah Aleksander dan Rufus. Lalu tentara-tentara itu memaksa Simon untuk memikul salib Yesus.
22 They brought them both to a place that they [call] Golgotha. That name means, ‘a place [like] a skull’.
Mereka menggiring Yesus ke Golgota. Nama itu artinya ‘tempat tengkorak.’
23 Then they tried to give Jesus wine that was {that they} mixed with [medicine called] myrrh. [They wanted him to drink it so that he would not feel so much pain when they crucified him]. But he did not drink it.
Di sana mereka memberikan air anggur yang dicampur getah pohon mur kepada-Nya. Tetapi Dia menolaknya.
24 [Some] of the [soldiers took his clothes]. Then they nailed him to a cross. Afterwards, they divided his clothes among themselves by gambling with [something like] dice. They did this [in order to determine] which [piece of clothing] each one would get.
Sesudah menyalibkan Yesus, mereka membagi-bagi pakaian-Nya di antara mereka dengan cara membuang undi.
25 It was nine o’clock in the morning when they crucified him.
Yesus disalibkan sekitar jam sembilan pagi.
26 They [attached to the cross above Jesus’ head] a sign on which it had been written {someone had written} the reason why [they were nailing him to the cross]. [But all] that it said was, “The King of the Jews.”
Pada bagian atas salib-Nya dipasang papan bertuliskan tuduhan terhadap Yesus, yaitu “Inilah raja orang Yahudi.”
27 They also nailed to crosses two men who were bandits. They nailed one to a cross at the right side [of Jesus] and one to a cross at the left side [of Jesus].
Bersama Yesus, mereka juga menyalibkan dua orang pencuri, yang seorang di sebelah kanan-Nya, dan yang seorang lagi di sebelah kiri-Nya.
Dengan demikian, terjadilah sesuai dengan Firman Allah yang disampaikan oleh seorang nabi, “Dia akan dianggap sama seperti para penjahat.”
29 The people who were passing by insulted him by shaking their heads as [if here were an evil man]. They said, “Aha! You said that you would destroy the Temple and then you would build it again within three days.
Orang-orang yang melewati tempat itu mengejek Dia. Sambil menggeleng-gelengkan kepala, mereka berkata, “Hai kamu yang dulu mengaku bisa merobohkan rumah Allah dan membangunnya kembali dalam tiga hari saja!
30 [If you could do that, then] rescue yourself by coming down from the cross!”
Selamatkanlah dirimu dan turunlah dari salib itu!”
31 The chief priests, along with the men who taught the [Jewish] laws, also [wanted to] make fun of Jesus. So they said to each other, “He [claims to have] saved others [from their sicknesses] [IRO] but he cannot save himself!
Para imam kepala dan ahli Taurat yang ada di situ juga menertawakan Dia, “Konyol sekali! Dia bisa menyelamatkan orang lain, tetapi tidak bisa menyelamatkan dirinya sendiri!
32 He said, ‘I am the Messiah, I am the King who [rules the people of] Israel.’ [If his words are true], he should come down now from the cross! Then we will believe [him]!” The [two] men who were crucified beside him also insulted him.
Kalau dia benar-benar Kristus, Raja Penyelamat bangsa Israel, biarlah dia turun dari salibnya itu, barulah kami akan percaya kepadanya!” Kedua penjahat yang disalibkan bersama Yesus juga ikut menghina Dia.
33 At noon the whole land became dark, [and it stayed dark] until three o’clock in the afternoon.
Mulai jam dua belas siang, tiba-tiba seluruh daerah itu menjadi gelap sampai jam tiga sore.
34 At three o’clock Jesus shouted loudly, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” That means, “My God, my God, why have you deserted me?”
Kira-kira jam tiga, Yesus berteriak dengan suara keras, “Eloi, Eloi, lima sabaktani?”— yang artinya, “Allah-Ku, Allah-Ku, mengapa Engkau meninggalkan Aku?”
35 When some of the people who were standing there heard [the word ‘Eloi’, misunderstanding it], they said, “Listen! He is calling for [the prophet] Elijah!”
Lalu beberapa orang yang berdiri di sana keliru mendengar perkataan Yesus itu dan mereka berkata, “Dengar! Dia memanggil Nabi Elia.”
36 One of them ran and filled a sponge with sour wine. He placed it on [the tip of] a reed, and then he [held it] up for [Jesus] to suck out [the wine that was in] it. [While he was doing that, someone] said, “Wait! Let’s see whether Elijah will come to take him down [from the cross]!”
Sesudah itu seseorang berlari mengambil sepotong spons dan memasangnya di ujung sebatang bambu kecil. Dia mencelupkan spons itu ke dalam air anggur asam dan memberikannya kepada Yesus supaya Dia minum. Sambil melakukan itu dia berkata, “Mari kita tunggu dan lihat apakah Elia akan datang untuk menurunkan dia dari salib ini!”
37 And then, after Jesus shouted loudly, he stopped breathing [and died].
Kemudian Yesus berteriak dan menghembuskan nafas terakhir.
38 [At that moment] the [heavy thick] curtain that closed off [the most holy place in] the Temple split into two pieces from top to bottom. [That showed that ordinary people could now go into the presence of God].
Waktu Yesus mati, tiba-tiba tirai yang tergantung di pintu ruang kudus di dalam rumah Allah robek sendiri dari atas ke bawah menjadi dua bagian.
39 The officer who supervised the soldiers [who nailed Jesus to the cross] was standing in front of Jesus. When he saw how Jesus died, he exclaimed, “Truly, this man was the man who was also God!”
Saat komandan kompi yang berdiri di depan salib Yesus melihat bagaimana Yesus berteriak lalu mati, dia berkata, “Sungguh, ternyata Orang ini benar-benar Anak Allah!”
40 There were also some women there, watching these events from a distance. They had accompanied Jesus when he was in Galilee [district], and they had provided what he needed. They had come with him to Jerusalem. Among those women was Mary from Magdala [town]. There was [another] Mary, who was the mother of the younger James and of Joses. There was also Salome.
Di situ ada juga beberapa perempuan yang melihat dari jauh. Mereka adalah Salome, Maria yang berasal dari kampung Magdala, serta Maria ibu Yesus, Yoses, dan Yakobus muda.
Mereka adalah perempuan-perempuan yang biasa ikut dan membantu pelayanan Yesus waktu Dia masih berada di daerah Galilea. Bersama mereka ada juga banyak perempuan lain yang sudah ikut dengan rombongan Yesus dari Galilea sampai ke Yerusalem.
42 When evening was near, [a man named] Joseph from Arimathea [town came there]. He was a member of the [Jewish] council, one whom everyone respected. He was also one of those who had been waiting expectantly for the [time when] God [would send] his king to begin to rule. [He knew that, according to Jewish law, people’s bodies had to be buried] {[someone had to bury people’s bodies]} [on the day they died. He also realized that] it was the day when [people] prepared [things for] ([the Jewish day of rest/the Sabbath]), [and that the Sabbath would start when the sun set]. So he became courageous and went to Pilate and asked Pilate [to permit him to take] the body of Jesus [down from the cross and bury it immediately].
Saat itu, hari sudah mulai malam dan orang Yahudi harus segera menyelesaikan segala persiapan mereka untuk hari Sabat.
Karena itu Yusuf memberanikan diri menghadap Pilatus untuk meminta mayat Yesus. (Yusuf ini berasal dari kampung Arimatea. Dia salah satu anggota terhormat Mahkamah Agama Yahudi. Dia juga sangat menanti-nantikan saatnya Allah mulai memerintah dunia ini sebagai Raja.)
44 Pilate was surprised [when he heard that] Jesus was already dead. So he summoned the officer who was in charge of the soldiers [who crucified Jesus], and he asked him if [Jesus] had already died.
Pilatus heran waktu mendengar bahwa Yesus sudah mati sebelum malam. Lalu dia memanggil komandan kompi yang melaksanakan penyaliban itu dan menanyakan kalau Yesus benar-benar sudah mati.
45 When the officer told [Pilate that Jesus was dead], Pilate allowed Joseph [to take away] the body.
Setelah Pilatus mendengar laporan komandan itu bahwa Yesus memang sudah mati, dia memberi izin kepada Yusuf untuk membawa mayat Yesus.
46 After Joseph bought a linen cloth, he [and others] took [Jesus’ body down from the cross]. They wrapped it in the linen cloth and laid it in a tomb that [previously] had been dug out of the rock [cliff]. Then they rolled a [huge flat] stone in front of the entrance to the tomb.
Yusuf pun membeli kain putih untuk membungkus mayat Yesus. Dia dibantu beberapa orang lain menurunkan mayat-Nya dari salib. Mereka membungkus-Nya dengan kain itu, lalu membaringkan mayat Yesus di dalam kuburan yang digali seperti gua pada bukit batu. Kemudian pintu kuburan itu ditutup dengan menggulingkan batu besar yang sudah disediakan sebagai penutup.
47 Mary [from] Magdala and Mary the mother of Joses were watching where Jesus’ [body] was placed {where they placed Jesus’ [body]}.
Kedua perempuan yang bernama Maria tadi memperhatikan saat orang-orang itu mengurus dan membaringkan mayat Yesus.
