1And all the multitude of them arose, and led him to Pilate. 2And they began to accuse him, and said, We have found this (man) turning upside-down our folk, and forbidding tribute to be given to the emperor, and saying that himself is Christ a king. [Forsooth they began to accuse him, saying, We have found this man turning upside-down our folk, and forbidding tribute to be given to Caesar, and saying himself to be Christ (a) king.] (And they began to accuse him, and said, We have found this man turning our nation upside-down, that is, subverting our people, and forbidding taxes to be paid to Caesar, and saying that he is the Messiah, a king.) 3And Pilate asked him, and said, Art thou king of Jews? (Art thou the King of the Jews?) And he answered, and said, Thou sayest. 4And Pilate said to the princes of (the) priests, and to the people, I find nothing of cause in this man. (And Pilate said to the high priests, and to the people, I find no case against this man/I find no reason to condemn this man.) 5And they waxed stronger (And they grew stronger and more insistent), and said, He moveth the people, teaching through all Judaea, beginning from Galilee till hither.

6And Pilate hearing Galilee asked, if he were a man of Galilee. 7And when he knew that he was of the power of Herod, he sent him to Herod; which was at Jerusalem in those days [and he was at Jerusalem in those days].

8And when Herod saw Jesus, he joyed full much; for (a) long time he coveted to see him, for he heard many things of him, and hoped to see some token, (or some miracle), done of him. (And when Herod saw Jesus, he greatly rejoiced; for he had desired to see him for a long time, because he had heard many things about him, and hoped to see some sign, or some miracle, done by him.) 9And he asked him in many words; and he answered nothing to him. 10And the princes of (the) priests (And the high priests), and the scribes stood, steadfastly accusing him. 11But Herod with his host despised him, and scorned him, and clothed him with a white cloth, and sent him again to Pilate. (But Herod and his soldiers mocked him, and scorned him, and clothed him with a white cloak, and then sent him back to Pilate.) 12And Herod and Pilate were made friends from that day [And Herod and Pilate were made friends in that day]; for before they were enemies together (but before this day they were enemies).

13And Pilate called together the princes of (the) priests, and the magistrates of the people, (And Pilate called the high priests, and the magistrates of the people, together,) 14and said to them, Ye have brought to me this man, as turning away the people, and lo! I asking before you find no cause (worthy of death) in this man, of these things, in which ye accuse him; (and said to them, Ye have brought me this man, for subverting the people, and lo! I asking before you find no case against this man/find no reason to condemn this man, regarding those things, of which ye accuse him;) 15neither (did) Herod, for he hath sent him again to us, and lo! nothing worthy of death is done to him. (nor did Herod, for he hath sent him back to us, and lo! nothing worthy of death hath been done by him.) 16And therefore I shall amend him, and deliver him. [+Therefore I shall leave him amended, or deliver him chastised.] (And so I shall chastise him, and then let him go.) 17But he must needs deliver to them one by the feast day. [Forsooth he had need to deliver to them one by the feast day.] (But he had to release one prisoner to them on the Feast Day, or during the Festival.)

18And all the people cried together, and said, Do him away, and deliver to us Barabbas; (And all the people cried together, and shouted, Do him away, and release Barabbas to us/and give us Barabbas;) 19which was sent into prison for disturbing, (or for some dissention, or some sedition), made in the city, and for manslaying. (who was sent into prison for a disturbance made in the city, and for murder.) 20And again Pilate spake to them, and would deliver Jesus. [Forsooth again Pilate spake to them, willing to deliver Jesus.] (And again Pilate spoke to them, and wanted to release Jesus.) 21And they cried out, and said, Crucify, crucify him. 22And the third time he said to them, For what evil hath he done? I find no cause (worthy) of death in him; therefore I shall chastise him, and [I] shall deliver him (I find no case, or crime worthy of death, against him; and so I shall chastise him, and then I shall let him go/and then I shall release him). 23And they continued with great voices asking [And they continued asking with great voices], that he should be crucified; and the voices of them waxed strong. (And they continued shouting with loud voices, saying that he should be crucified; and their voices grew stronger and more insistent.) 24And (then) Pilate deemed their asking to be done. 25And he delivered to them him, that for manslaying and sedition was sent into prison, (for) whom they (had) asked; but he betook Jesus to their will (but he delivered Jesus unto their will).

26And when they led him (away), they took a man, Simon of Cyrene, coming from the town, and they laid on him the cross to bear after Jesus.

27And there (pur)sued him much people (And many people followed him), and women that bewailed, and bemourned him. 28And Jesus turned to them, and said, Daughters of Jerusalem, do not ye weep on me, but weep ye on yourselves and on your sons (Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but rather weep for yourselves and for your children). 29For lo! days shall come, in which it shall be said, Blessed be barren women, and [the] wombs that have not born children, and the teats that have not given suck (and the breasts that have not been suckled). 30Then they shall begin to say to (the) mountains, Fall ye down on us, and to (the) small hills, Cover ye us. 31For if in a green tree they do these things [For if they do these things in a green tree], what shall be done in a dry (one)? (For if they do these things when the tree is green, what shall they do when it is dry?)

32Also other two wicked men were led (away) with him, to be slain. (And two other wicked men were led away with him, to be killed, or executed.)

33And when they came into a place, that is called of Calvary [+And after that they came to a place, which is called Calvary], there they crucified him, and the thieves, one on the right half, and the other on the left half (one on his right side, and the other on his left side). 34But Jesus said, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. And they parted his clothes, and cast lots (for them) (And they divided up his clothes, and threw dice for them). 35And the people stood abiding; and the princes scorned him with them, and said, Other men he made safe; make he himself safe, if this be Christ, the chosen of God. (And the people stood about waiting, and watching; and their leaders scorned him, and said, He saved other men; let him save himself, if this be the Messiah, the chosen One of God.) 36And the knights nighed (And the soldiers came near), and scorned him, and proffered vinegar to him [and offered vinegar to him], 37and said, If thou art king of Jews, make thee safe. (and said, If thou art the King of the Jews, save thyself.) 38And the superscription was written over him with Greek letters, and of Latin, and of Hebrew [And the superscription was written on him, (or over him), with letters of Greek, of Latin, and of Hebrew], This is the king of Jews (This is the King of the Jews).

39And one of these thieves that hanged (there) [Forsooth one of those thieves that hanged (there)], blasphemed him, and said, If thou art Christ, make thyself safe and us (If thou art the Messiah, save thyself and us). 40But the other answering, blamed him, and said, Neither thou dreadest God, [thou] that art in the same condemnation, (or damnation)? (But the other one answering him, rebuked him, and said, Fearest thou not God, thou who art under the same condemnation?/thou who art under the same damnation?) 41And truly we justly, for we have received worthy things to our works, (or for our deeds); but this did nothing of evil [soothly this hath done no evil]. 42And he said to Jesus, Lord, have mind of me (Lord, remember me), when thou comest into thy kingdom. 43And Jesus said to him, Truly I say to thee (I tell you the truth), this day thou shalt be with me in paradise.

44And it was almost the sixth hour, and darknesses were made on all the earth, into the ninth hour [till the ninth hour]. (And it was almost noon, and then darkness was made upon all the land, and it remained until three o’clock.) 45And the sun was made dark, and the veil of the temple was rent atwo, (or was cut down the middle). (And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the Temple was torn in two.) 46And Jesus crying with a great voice, said, Father, into thine hands I betake my spirit (And Jesus crying with a loud voice, said, Father, into thy hands I deliver, or I commend, my spirit). And he saying these things, gave up the ghost [And he saying these things, sent out the spirit, or died]. 47And the centurion seeing that thing that was done, glorified God, and said, Verily, this man was just. (And the centurion, seeing all that was done, glorified God, and said, Truly, this man was good and righteous/It is true, this man was innocent.) 48And all the people of them that were there together at this spectacle, and saw those things that were done, smote their breasts, and turned again (and then returned home). 49But all his known stood afar, and (the) women that (pur)sued him from Galilee (and the women who followed him from Galilee), seeing these things.

50And lo! a man, Joseph by name, of Arimathaea, a city of Judaea, that was a decurion, (or having ten under him), a good man and a just (one) [a good man and just], (And lo! a man called Joseph, of Arimathaea, a city of Judaea, who was a member of the Council, a good and righteous man,) 51this man consented not to the counsel and to the deeds of them; and he abode the kingdom of God. (this man did not agree with, or approve of, their policy and their deeds; and he was waiting for the Kingdom of God.) 52This Joseph came to Pilate, and asked (for) the body of Jesus, 53and took it down, and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, and laid him in a grave hewn (and laid him in a tomb cut out of the rock), in which not yet any man had been laid, (or was put). 54And the day was the even(ing) of the holiday, (or of the holy day, the making ready of pask), and the sabbath began to shine. (And that was the evening of the day after Passover, and the Sabbath was about to begin.) 55And the women (pur)suing (him), that came with him from Galilee, saw the grave, and how his body was laid. (And the women following him, who had come with him from Galilee, saw the tomb, and how his body was placed in it.) 56And they turned again, and made ready sweet smelling spices, and ointments; but in the sabbath they rested, after the commandment. (And then they returned home, and prepared sweet smelling spices, and ointments; but on the Sabbath they rested, according to the commandment.)
