1As soon as it was morning, the high priests convened a meeting with the elders and scribes and the whole Council. They bound Jesus with chains, led him away, and handed him over to Pilate.

1Early in the morning, the chief priests, elders, scribes, and the whole Sanhedrin devised a plan. They bound Jesus, led Him away, and handed Him over to Pilate.

2Pilate asked him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" Jesus answered him, "You say so."

2So Pilate questioned Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied.

3The high priests kept accusing him of many things.

3And the chief priests began to accuse Him of many things.

4So Pilate asked him again, "Don't you have any answer? Look how many accusations they're bringing against you!"

4Then Pilate questioned Him again, “Have You no answer? Look how many charges they are bringing against You!”

5But since Jesus no longer answered, Pilate was astonished.

5But to Pilate’s amazement, Jesus made no further reply.

6At every festival, Pilate would release any one prisoner whom the people requested.

6Now it was Pilate’s custom at the feast to release to the people a prisoner of their choosing.

7Now there was a man in prison named Barabbas. He had been with the insurgents who had committed murder during the rebellion.

7And a man named Barabbas was imprisoned with the rebels who had committed murder during the insurrection.

8So the crowd came and began to request that Pilate do for them what he always did.

8So the crowd went up and began asking Pilate to keep his custom.

9Pilate answered them, "Do you want me to release the king of the Jews for you?"

9“Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?” Pilate asked.

10because he knew that the high priests had handed him over due to jealousy.

10For he knew it was out of envy that the chief priests had handed Jesus over.

11But the high priests stirred up the crowd to get him to release Barabbas for them instead.

11But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release Barabbas to them instead.

12So Pilate asked them again, "Then what should I do with the man you call 'the King of the Jews'?"

12So Pilate asked them again, “What then do you want me to do with the One you call the King of the Jews?”

13"Crucify him!" they shouted back.

13And they shouted back, “Crucify Him!”

14"Why?" Pilate asked them. "What has he done wrong?" But they shouted even louder, "Crucify him!"

14“Why?” asked Pilate. “What evil has He done?” But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify Him!”

15So Pilate, wanting to satisfy the crowd, released Barabbas for them, but he had Jesus whipped and handed over to be crucified.

15And wishing to satisfy the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged, and handed Him over to be crucified.

19They kept hitting him on the head with a stick, spitting on him, kneeling in front of him, and worshiping him.

20When they had finished making fun of him, they stripped him of the purple robe, put his own clothes back on him, and led him away to crucify him.

20After they had mocked Him, they removed the purple robe and put His own clothes back on Him. Then they led Him out to crucify Him.

21They forced a certain passer-by named Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, who happened to be coming in from the country, to carry Jesus' cross.

23They tried to give him wine mixed with myrrh, but he wouldn't accept it.

23There they offered Him wine mixed with myrrh, but He did not take it.

24Then they crucified him. They divided his clothes among themselves by throwing dice to see what each one would get.

24And they crucified Him. They also divided His garments by casting lots to decide what each of them would take.

30save yourself and come down from the cross!"

30come down from the cross and save Yourself!”

31In the same way, the high priests, along with the scribes, were also making fun of him among themselves. They kept saying, "He saved others, but can't save himself!

31In the same way, the chief priests and scribes mocked Him among themselves, saying, “He saved others, but He cannot save Himself!

32Let the Messiah, the king of Israel, come down from the cross now, since seeing is believing!" Even the men who were crucified with him kept insulting him.

32Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, so that we may see and believe!” And even those who were crucified with Him berated Him.

35When some of the people standing there heard this, they said, "Listen! He's calling for Elijah!"

35When some of those standing nearby heard this, they said, “Behold, He is calling Elijah.”

36So someone ran and soaked a sponge in some sour wine. Then he put it on a stick and offered Jesus a drink, saying, "Wait! Let's see if Elijah comes to take him down!"

36And someone ran and filled a sponge with sour wine. He put it on a reed and held it up for Jesus to drink, saying, “Leave Him alone. Let us see if Elijah comes to take Him down.”
