1And the whole company of them rose up, and brought him before Pilate. 2And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he himself is al-Masih a king. 3And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest. 4And Pilate said unto the chief priests and the multitudes, I find no fault in this man. 5But they were the more urgent, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Judaea, and beginning from Galilee even unto this place.

6But when Pilate heard it, he asked whether the man were a Galilean. 7And when he knew that he was of Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him unto Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem in these days.

8Now when Herod saw [Prophet] Isa [al-Masih pbuh], he was exceeding glad: for he was of a long time desirous to see him, because he had heard concerning him; and he hoped to see some miracle done by him. 9And he questioned him in many words; but he answered him nothing. 10And the chief priests and the scribes stood, vehemently accusing him. 11And Herod with his soldiers set him at nought, and mocked him, and arraying him in gorgeous apparel sent him back to Pilate. 12And Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day: for before they were at enmity between themselves.

13And Pilate called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people, 14and said unto them, Ye brought unto me this man, as one that perverteth the people: and behold, I, having examined him before you, found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him: 15no, nor yet Herod: for he sent him back unto us; and behold, nothing worthy of death hath been done by him. 16I will therefore chastise him, and release him. 17Now he was obliged to release to them one at the Festival.

18But they cried out all together, saying, Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas:’ 19one who for a certain insurrection made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison. 20And Pilate spoke unto them again, desiring to release [Prophet] Isa [al-Masih pbuh]; 21but they shouted, saying, Pierce alive on the Tree [see 2Samuel 18:9-33 Ben Dovid (Son of David) pierced hanging alive on the Tree, the prophesied peace-bringing Holy Injil requiring a mevaser announcer of Good News of al-Salaam (2 Timothy 4:5) to herald it; see Psalm :22:16; Zechariah 12:10; Isaiah 53:5], pierced him alive on a Tree. 22And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath this man done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him and release him. 23But they were urgent with loud voices, asking that he might be pierced alive on the Tree. And their voices prevailed. 24And Pilate gave sentence that what they asked for should be done. 25And he released him that for insurrection and murder had been cast into prison, whom they asked for; but [Prophet] Isa [al-Masih pbuh]he delivered up to their will.

26And when they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, and laid on him the Tree, to bear it after [Prophet] Isa [al-Masih pbuh].

27And there followed him a great multitude of the people, and of women who bewailed and lamented him. 28But [Prophet] Isa [al-Masih pbuh]turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children. 29For behold, the days are coming, in which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the breasts that never gave suck. 30Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us. 31For if they do these things in the green tree, what shall be done in the dry?

32And there were also two others, malefactors, led with him to be put to death.

33And when they came unto the place which is called The skull, there they pierced alive on the Tree him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand and the other on the left. 34And [Prophet] Isa [al-Masih pbuh]said, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And parting his garments among them, they cast lots. 35And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also scoffed at him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if this is [Bar Enosh] al-Masih of [Atik Yomin] Elokim, his chosen. 36And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, offering him vinegar, 37and saying, If thou art the King of the Jews, save thyself. 38And there was also a superscription over him, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

39And one of the malefactors that were hanged railed on him, saying, Art not thou al-Masih? save thyself and us. 40But the other answered, and rebuking him said, Dost thou not even fear Elokim, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? 41And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. 42And he said, [Prophet] Isa [al-Masih pbuh], remember me when thou comest in thy kingdom. 43And he said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To-day shalt thou be with me in Paradise.

44And it was now about the sixth hour, and a darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour, 45the light of the sun failing: and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst. 46And [Prophet] Isa [al-Masih pbuh], crying with a loud voice, said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said this, he gave up the ghost. 47And when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified Elokim, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man. 48And all the multitudes that came together to this sight, when they beheld the things that were done, returned smiting their breasts. 49And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed with him from Galilee, stood afar off, seeing these things.

50And behold, a man named Yosef, who was a councillor, a good and righteous man 51(he had not consented to their counsel and deed), a man of Arimathea, a city of the Jews, who was looking for the kingdom of Elokim: 52this man went to Pilate, and asked for the body of [Prophet] Isa [al-Masih pbuh]. 53And he took it down, and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that was hewn in stone, where never man had yet lain. 54And it was the day of the Preparation, and the sabbath drew on. 55And the women, who had come with him out of Galilee, followed after, and beheld the tomb, and how his body was laid. 56And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments. And on the sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
