And as Peter was beneath in the court, there cometh one of the maids of the high priest;

and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and saith, Thou also wast with the Nazarene, even Jesus.

But he denied it, saying, "I do not know or understand what you mean." Then he went out of the courtyard and was in the gateway to it.

But, he, again, was denying. And, after a little again, the by-standers, were saying unto Peter - Truly, thou, art, from among them; for thou art, a Galilaean, also.

And, straightway, a second time, a cock, crowed; and Peter was reminded of the declaration, how Jesus had said to him - Before a cock, twice, crow, thrice, wilt thou deny me. And, when he thought thereon, he began to weep.

And as soon as it was morning, the chief priests, having held a consultation with the elders and the scribes, and the whole council, bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate.

And, Pilate, again, was questioning him, saying- Answerest thou, nothing? See! of how many things, they are accusing thee!

But Jesus gave no further answer; so that Pilate was astonished.

Now it was his custom to release to them, at the feast, one prisoner, whomever they desired.

And there was one called Barabbas, lying bound with them that had made insurrection, men who in the insurrection had committed murder.

And the multitude went up and began to ask him to do as he was wont to do unto them.

For he was aware that it was out of jealousy that the Chief Priests had given Jesus up to him.

But, Pilate, again answering, was saying unto them - What then shall I do with him whom ye call, the King of the Jews?

But, Pilate, was saying unto them - Why! what, evil, hath he done? And, they, vehemently, cried out - Crucify him!

And Pilate, desiring to do what was pleasing to the people, let Barabbas go free, and gave up Jesus, when he had been whipped, to be put to death on the cross.

They placed a purple robe on Him [Note: Matt. 27:28 calls this a "scarlet" robe. In that day, any color with a mixture of "red" in it was often called "purple"], and making a wreath out of thorns, they placed it on His head.

And they compelled one Simon, a Cyrenian, (the father of Alexander and Eufus,) who was passing by, coming in from the country, to bear his cross.

They brought Jesus to the place which was known as Golgotha- -a name which means 'Place of a Skull.'

And he was nailed to the cross; and they made a division of his clothing among them, putting to the decision of chance what everyone was to take.

And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.

And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was reckoned with transgressors.

And, the passers-by, were reviling him, shaking their heads, and saying - Aha! thou who wast pulling down the shrine, and building one in three days!

And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.

And one, running, filled a sponge with vinegar, and, putting it about a reed, was giving him to drink, saying - Stay! let us see whether Elijah is coming, to take him down!

And the curtain of the Temple was parted in two from end to end.

And when the captain, who was near, saw how he gave up his spirit, he said, Truly this man was a son of God.

There were also women looking on from a distance; among whom was Mary the Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;

Who went with him when he was in Galilee and took care of him; and a number of other women who came up with him to Jerusalem.

And when it was evening, because it was the time of getting ready, that is, the day before the Sabbath,

There came Joseph of Arimathaea, a responsible man in high honour, who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God; and he went in to Pilate without fear, and made a request for the body of Jesus.

And Pilate was surprised that he was dead; and, sending for the captain, he put a question to see if he had been dead for long.

And, on learning from the Officer that it was so, he gave the corpse to Joseph.

And he got a linen cloth and, taking him down, put the linen cloth round him, and put him in a place for the dead which had been cut out of a rock; and a stone was rolled against the door.

And Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of Joses, saw where he was put.

And when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of James, and Salome, got spices, so that they might come and put them on him.

And very early on the first day of the week, they come to the tomb when the sun was risen.

They said to themselves, "Who will roll away the boulder for us at the opening of the tomb?" (for it was a very large boulder).

And looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back; and it was of great size.

But he said to them: Be not frightened; you seek Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen; he is not here: see the place where they laid him.

Now when he was risen early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons.

And they, when it came to their ears that he was living, and had been seen by her, had no belief in it.

And after these things he was seen in another form by two of them, while they were walking on their way into the country.

And they went away and gave news of it to the rest; and they had no belief in what was said.

And later he was seen by the eleven themselves while they were taking food; and he said sharp words to them because they had no faith and their hearts were hard, and because they had no belief in those who had seen him after he had come back from the dead.

So then the Lord Jesus, after he had said these words to them, was taken up into heaven and took his seat at the right hand of God.

And they went out [and] proclaimed everywhere, [while] the Lord was working together with [them] and confirming the message through the accompanying signs.]]
