And while Peter was down in the open square of the building, one of the servant-girls of the high priest came;

and seeing Peter warming himself, having looked at him, says, And thou wast with the Nazarene, 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 again he said it was not so. And after a little time, again those who were near said to Peter, Truly you are one of them; for you are a Galilaean.

And in the same minute, the cock gave a second cry. And it came to Peter's mind how Jesus had said to him, Before the cock's second cry, you will say three times that you have no knowledge of me. And at this thought he was overcome with weeping.

As soon as it was daylight, the high priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes; and the whole council, after binding Jesus, took Him away and turned Him over 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 more answers, so that Pilate was full of wonder.

At that feast Pilate was wont to deliver at their pleasure a prisoner: whomsoever they would desire.

And there was one named Barabbas, in prison with those who had gone against the government and in the fight had taken life.

And having cried aloud, the multitude began to ask as he was always doing for them.

For he was getting to know that, for envy, had the High-priestsdelivered him up.

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

And Pilate said to them, Why, what evil has he done? But their cry was the louder, To the cross!

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 made one, Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, who was going by, coming from the country, go with them, so that he might take his cross.

Then they brought Jesus to the place called Golgotha which, being interpreted, means "the place of the skull" [i.e., probably because it was a skull-shaped knoll in appearance].

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 when they put him on the cross.

And the statement of his crime was put in writing on the cross, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

And the scripture was fulfilled which says, And he was reckoned with the lawless.

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 had come, it was dark over all the land till the ninth hour.

and one having run, and having filled a spunge with vinegar, having put it also on a reed, was giving him to drink, saying, 'Let alone, let us see if Elijah doth come 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 a good way off beholding him: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the little and of Joseph, and Mary 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.

but when he found out from the captain that He was, he gave him permission to take His body.

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 early in the morning, the next day after the Sabbath day, they came unto the sepulchre when the sun was risen.

And they said to themselves, Who will roll away the stone for us from the door of the tomb???4 and looking up they saw that the stone was rolled away??or it was very great.

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

But he said to them, "Do not be alarmed. You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene who was crucified. He has been raised, he is not here! See the place where they laid him!

When Jesus was risen, the morrow after the Sabbath day he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he cast seven devils.

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.]]
