Pilate answered, 'Am I a Jew? thy nation, and the chief priests did deliver thee up to me; what didst thou?'

"My kingdom," replied Jesus, "does not belong to this world. If my kingdom did belong to this world, my subjects would have resolutely fought to save me from being delivered up to the Jews. But, as a matter of fact, my kingdom has not this origin."

Then, therefore, did Pilate take Jesus and scourge him,

and the soldiers having plaited a crown of thorns, did place it on his head, and a purple garment they put around him,

When, therefore, the chief priests and the officers did see him, they cried out, saying, 'Crucify, crucify;' Pilate saith to them, 'Take ye him -- ye, and crucify; for I find no fault in him;'

He went into the Praetorium again and said to Jesus, “Where are You from?” But Jesus did not answer him.

The soldiers, therefore, when they did crucify Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to each soldier a part, also the coat, and the coat was seamless, from the top woven throughout,

They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.

These things therefore the soldiers did. But there were standing by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.

a vessel, therefore, was placed full of vinegar, and they having filled a sponge with vinegar, and having put it around a hyssop stalk, did put it to his mouth;

Since it was the preparation day, the Jews did not want the bodies to remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special day). They requested that Pilate have the men’s legs broken and that their bodies be taken away.

The soldiers, therefore, came, and of the first indeed they did break the legs, and of the other who was crucified with him,

but coming to Jesus, when they saw that he was already dead they did not break his legs,

but one of the soldiers with a spear did pierce his side, and immediately there came forth blood and water;

and again another Writing saith, 'They shall look to him whom they did pierce.'

And after these things did Joseph of Arimathea -- being a disciple of Jesus, but concealed, through the fear of the Jews -- ask of Pilate, that he may take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave leave; he came, therefore, and took away the body of Jesus,

So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.

and stooping down he sees the linen cloths lying; he did not however go in.

then, therefore, entered also the other disciple who came first unto the tomb, and he saw, and did believe;

for not yet did they know the Writing, that it behoveth him out of the dead to rise again.

Meanwhile Mary remained standing near the tomb, weeping aloud. She did not enter the tomb, but as she wept she stooped and looked in,

After saying this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know that it was Jesus.

Jesus *said to him, “Because you have seen Me, have you believed? Blessed are they who did not see, and yet believed.”

And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:

After these things did Jesus manifest himself again to the disciples on the sea of Tiberias, and he did manifest himself thus:

Simon Peter told them, "I'm going fishing." They all told him, "We'll go with you, too." So they went out and got into the boat but didn't catch a thing that night.

And early morn already breaking, Jesus stood on the shore; the disciples however did not know that it was Jesus.

“Cast the net on the right side of the boat,” He told them, “and you’ll find some.” So they did, and they were unable to haul it in because of the large number of fish.

Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fisher's coat unto him, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea.

Then Simon Peter boarded [the boat] and dragged the net full of large fish to shore. And even though there were one hundred fifty-three [fish], the net did not tear from such a large number.

Jesus came, took the bread, and gave it to them. He did the same with the fish.

This word therefore went out among the brethren, That disciple does not die. And Jesus did not say to him, He does not die; but, If I will that he abide until I come, what is that to thee?

This is the disciple, who testifieth of these things, and wrote these things; and we know that his testimony is true. And there are also many other things which Jesus did,

And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.

My former narrative, Theophilus, dealt with all that Jesus did and taught as a beginning, down to the day on which,

till the day in which, having given command, through the Holy Spirit, to the apostles whom he did choose out, he was taken up,

to whom also he did present himself alive after his suffering, in many certain proofs, through forty days being seen by them, and speaking the things concerning the reign of God.

And being assembled together with them, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, 'Ye did hear of me;

and he said unto them, 'It is not yours to know times or seasons that the Father did appoint in His own authority;

And these things having said -- they beholding -- he was taken up, and a cloud did receive him up from their sight;

Then did they return to Jerusalem from the mount that is called of Olives, that is near Jerusalem, a sabbath's journey;

They all united in devoting themselves to Prayer, and so did some women, and Mary, the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.

because he was numbered among us, and did receive the share in this ministration,

'It behoveth, therefore, of the men who did go with us during all the time in which the Lord Jesus went in and went out among us,

to receive the share of this ministration and apostleship, from which Judas, by transgression, did fall, to go on to his proper place;'

and they were all amazed, and did wonder, saying one unto another, 'Lo, are not all these who are speaking Galileans?

Cretes and Arabians, we did hear them speaking in our tongues the great things of God.'

Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:

him, being delivered up by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye by the hand of lawless men did crucify and slay:

whom God did raise up, having loosed the pains of the death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it,

Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:

a prophet, therefore, being, and knowing that with an oath God did swear to him, out of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, to raise up the Christ, to sit upon his throne,

He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.

This Jesus did God raise up, whereof we all are witnesses.

for David did not go up to the heavens, and he saith himself: The Lord saith to my lord, Sit thou at my right hand,

assuredly, therefore, let all the house of Israel know, that both Lord and Christ did God make him -- this Jesus whom ye did crucify.'

And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.

then those, indeed, who did gladly receive his word were baptized, and there were added on that day, as it were, three thousand souls,

And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart,

But Peter, along with John, stared at him intently and said, “Look at us!”

and springing up, he stood, and was walking, and did enter with them into the temple, walking and springing, and praising God;

The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, did glorify His child Jesus, whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, he having given judgment to release him,

and ye the Holy and Righteous One did deny, and desired a man -- a murderer -- to be granted to you,

and the Prince of the life ye did kill, whom God did raise out of the dead, of which we are witnesses;

and on the faith of his name, this one whom ye see and have known, his name made strong, even the faith that is through him did give to him this perfect soundness before you all.

And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.

and God, what things before He had declared through the mouth of all His prophets, that the Christ should suffer, He did thus fulfil;

Moses, indeed, said, 'A prophet will the Lord your God raise up for you from among your brethren, as He did me; to Him shall ye hearken in all things, whatsoever He shall say to you.

and also all the prophets from Samuel and those following in order, as many as spake, did also foretell of these days.

to you first, God, having raised up His child Jesus, did send him, blessing you, in the turning away of each one from your evil ways.'

and they laid hands upon them, and did put them in custody unto the morrow, for it was evening already;

and many of those hearing the word did believe, and the number of the men became, as it were, five thousand.

and having set them in the midst, they were inquiring, 'In what power, or in what name did ye do this?'

be it known to all of you, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye did crucify, whom God did raise out of the dead, in him hath this one stood by before you whole.

for we cannot but speak what we did see and hear.'

and they having heard, with one accord did lift up the voice unto God, and said, 'Lord, thou art God, who didst make the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all that are in them,

Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?

The kings of the earth did set themselves in array; and the rulers assembled together, against the Lord, and against His Christ.'

"They did indeed assemble in this city in hostility to Thy holy Servant Jesus whom Thou hadst anointed--Herod and Pontius Pilate with the Gentiles and also the tribes of Israel--

to do whatever Thy hand and Thy counsel did determine before to come to pass.

and of the multitude of those who did believe the heart and the soul was one, and not one was saying that anything of the things he had was his own, but all things were to them in common.

and with great power did the apostles give witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon them all.

for there was not any one among them who did lack, for as many as were possessors of fields, or houses, selling them, were bringing the prices of the thing sold,

and did keep back of the price -- his wife also knowing -- and having brought a certain part, at the feet of the apostles he laid it.

And Peter said, 'Ananias, wherefore did the Adversary fill thy heart, for thee to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back of the price of the place?

While it remained, did it not remain thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thy power? How is it that thou hast conceived this thing in thy heart? thou has not lied unto men, but unto God.

and Ananias hearing these words, having fallen down, did expire, and great fear came upon all who heard these things,

After an interval of about three hours, his wife came in, but she did not know what had happened.

Peter asked her, “Tell me whether you sold your land for so much?” And she said, “Yes, for so much.”

And Peter said unto her, 'How was it agreed by you, to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? lo, the feet of those who did bury thy husband are at the door, and they shall carry thee forth;'

did not venture to approach near them. the number of those who believed in the Lord, both men and women, increas'd more and more.

and laid their hands upon the apostles, and did put them in a public prison;

and having heard, they did enter at the dawn into the temple, and were teaching. And the chief priest having come, and those with him, they called together the sanhedrim and all the senate of the sons of Israel, and they sent to the prison to have them brought,

And when the officers were come, they did not find them in the prison; and returned and reported

and coming near, a certain one told them, saying -- 'Lo, the men whom ye did put in the prison are in the temple standing and teaching the people;'

[Immediately] the captain, with his officers, went [to the Temple] and brought the apostles back again, but did not use any violence because they feared that the people might stone them.

Saying, Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man's blood upon us.

and the God of our fathers did raise up Jesus, whom ye slew, having hanged upon a tree;

Him did God exalt with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, to give repentance to Israel, and remission of sins.

for before these days rose up Theudas, saying, that himself was some one, to whom a number of men did join themselves, as it were four hundred, who was slain, and all, as many as were obeying him, were scattered, and came to nought.
