¹Now when morning was come, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:

¹ولما كان الصباح تشاور جميع رؤساء الكهنة وشيوخ الشعب على يسوع حتى يقتلوه.

²and they bound him, and led him away, and delivered him up to Pilate the governor.

²فاوثقوه ومضوا به ودفعوه الى بيلاطس البنطي الوالي

³Then Judas, who betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,

³حينئذ لما رأى يهوذا الذي اسلمه انه قد دين ندم وردّ الثلاثين من الفضة الى رؤساء الكهنة والشيوخ

⁴saying, I have sinned in that I betrayed innocent blood. But they said, What is that to us? see thou [to it].

⁴قائلا قد اخطأت اذ سلمت دما بريئا. فقالوا ماذا علينا. انت ابصر.

⁵And he cast down the pieces of silver into the sanctuary, and departed; and he went away and hanged himself.

⁵فطرح الفضة في الهيكل وانصرف. ثم مضى وخنق نفسه.

⁶And the chief priests took the pieces of silver, and said, It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, since it is the price of blood.

⁶فاخذ رؤساء الكهنة الفضة وقالوا لا يحل ان نلقيها في الخزانة لانها ثمن دم.

⁷And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.

⁷فتشاوروا واشتروا بها حقل الفخاري مقبرة للغرباء.

⁸Wherefore that field was called, the field of blood, unto this day.

⁸لهذا سمي ذلك الحقل حقل الدم الى هذا اليوم.

⁹Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was priced, whom [certain] of the children of Israel did price;

⁹حينئذ تم ما قيل بارميا النبي القائل وأخذوا الثلاثين من الفضة ثمن المثمن الذي ثمنوه من بني اسرائيل

¹⁰and they gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.

¹⁰واعطوها عن حقل الفخاري كما امرني الرب

¹¹Now Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest.

¹¹فوقف‎يسوع‎امام الوالي فسأله الوالي قائلا أانت ملك اليهود. فقال له يسوع انت تقول.

¹²And when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.

¹²وبينما كان رؤساء الكهنة والشيوخ يشتكون عليه لم يجب بشيء.

¹³Then saith Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee?

¹³فقال له بيلاطس أما تسمع كم يشهدون عليك.

¹⁴And he gave him no answer, not even to one word: insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly.

¹⁴فلم يجبه ولا عن كلمة واحدة حتى تعجب الوالي جدا

¹⁵Now at the feast the governor was wont to release unto the multitude one prisoner, whom they would.

¹⁵وكان الوالي معتادا في العيد ان يطلق للجمع اسيرا واحدا من ارادوه.

¹⁶And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.

¹⁶وكان لهم حينئذ اسير مشهور يسمى باراباس.

¹⁷When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?

¹⁷ففيما هم مجتمعون قال لهم بيلاطس من تريدون ان اطلق لكم. باراباس ام يسوع الذي يدعى المسيح.

¹⁸For he knew that for envy they had delivered him up.

¹⁸لانه علم انهم اسلموه حسدا.

¹⁹And while he was sitting on the judgment-seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that righteous man; for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.

¹⁹واذ كان جالسا على كرسي الولاية ارسلت اليه امرأته قائلة اياك وذلك البار. لاني تألمت اليوم كثيرا في حلم من اجله.

²⁰Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes that they should ask for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.

²⁰ولكن رؤساء الكهنة والشيوخ حرّضوا الجموع على ان يطلبوا باراباس ويهلكوا يسوع.

²¹But the governor answered and said unto them, Which of the two will ye that I release unto you? And they said, Barabbas.

²¹فاجاب الوالي وقال لهم من من الاثنين تريدون ان اطلق لكم. فقالوا باراباس.

²²Pilate saith unto them, What then shall I do unto Jesus who is called Christ? They all say, Let him be crucified.

²²قال لهم بيلاطس فماذا افعل بيسوع الذي يدعى المسيح. قال له الجميع ليصلب.

²³And he said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out exceedingly, saying, Let him be crucified.

²³فقال الوالي وايّ شر عمل. فكانوا يزدادون صراخا قائلين ليصلب.

²⁴So when Pilate saw that he prevailed nothing, but rather that a tumult was arising, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man; see ye [to it].

²⁴فلما رأى بيلاطس انه لا ينفع شيئا بل بالحري يحدث شغب اخذ ماء وغسل يديه قدام الجمع قائلا اني بريء من دم هذا البار. ابصروا انتم.

²⁵And all the people answered and said, His blood [be] on us, and on our children.

²⁵فاجاب جميع الشعب وقالوا دمه علينا وعلى اولادنا.

²⁶Then released he unto them Barabbas; but Jesus he scourged and delivered to be crucified.

²⁶حينئذ اطلق لهم باراباس. واما يسوع فجلده واسلمه ليصلب

²⁷Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the Praetorium, and gathered unto him the whole band.

²⁷فاخذ عسكر الوالي يسوع الى دار الولاية وجمعوا عليه كل الكتيبة.

²⁸And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.

²⁸فعروه والبسوه رداء قرمزيا.

²⁹And they platted a crown of thorns and put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand; and they kneeled down before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!

²⁹وضفروا اكليلا من شوك ووضعوه على راسه وقصبة في يمينه. وكانوا يجثون قدامه ويستهزئون به قائلين السلام يا ملك اليهود.

³⁰And they spat upon him, and took the reed and smote him on the head.

³⁰وبصقوا عليه واخذوا القصبة وضربوه على راسه.

³¹And when they had mocked him, they took off from him the robe, and put on him his garments, and led him away to crucify him.

³¹وبعدما استهزئوا به نزعوا عنه الرداء والبسوه ثيابه ومضوا به للصلب

³²And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to go [with them], that he might bear his cross.

³²وفيما هم خارجون وجدوا انسانا قيروانيا اسمه سمعان فسخروه ليحمل صليبه.

³³And they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, The place of a skull,

³³ولما أتوا الى موضع يقال له جلجثة وهو المسمى موضع الجمجمة

³⁴they gave him wine to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted it, he would not drink.

³⁴اعطوه خلا ممزوجا بمرارة ليشرب. ولما ذاق لم يرد ان يشرب.

³⁵And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments among them, casting lots;

³⁵ولما صلبوه اقتسموا ثيابه مقترعين عليها. لكي يتم ما قيل بالنبي اقتسموا ثيابي بينهم وعلى لباسي القوا قرعة.

³⁶and they sat and watched him there.

³⁶ثم جلسوا يحرسونه هناك.

³⁷And they set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

³⁷وجعلوا فوق راسه علته مكتوبة هذا هو يسوع ملك اليهود.

³⁸Then are there crucified with him two robbers, one on the right hand and one on the left.

³⁸حينئذ صلب معه لصان واحد عن اليمين وواحد عن اليسار

³⁹And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads,

³⁹وكان المجتازون يجدفون عليه وهم يهزون رؤوسهم

⁴⁰and saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself: if thou art the Son of God, come down from the cross.

⁴⁰قائلين يا ناقض الهيكل وبانيه في ثلاثة ايام خلّص نفسك. ان كنت ابن الله فانزل عن الصليب.

⁴¹In like manner also the chief priests mocking [him], with the scribes and elders, said,

⁴¹وكذلك رؤساء الكهنة ايضا وهم يستهزئون مع الكتبة والشيوخ قالوا

⁴²He saved others; himself he cannot save. He is the King of Israel; let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe on him.

⁴²خلّص آخرين واما نفسه فما يقدر ان يخلّصها. ان كان هو ملك اسرائيل فلينزل الآن عن الصليب فنؤمن به.

⁴³He trusteth on God; let him deliver him now, if he desireth him: for he said, I am the Son of God.

⁴³قد اتكل على الله فلينقذه الآن ان اراده. لانه قال انا ابن الله.

⁴⁴And the robbers also that were crucified with him cast upon him the same reproach.

⁴⁴وبذلك ايضا كان اللصّان اللذان صلبا معه يعيّرانه

⁴⁵Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.

⁴⁵ومن الساعة السادسة كانت ظلمة على كل الارض الى الساعة التاسعة.

⁴⁶And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

⁴⁶ونحو الساعة التاسعة صرخ يسوع بصوت عظيم قائلا ايلي ايلي لما شبقتني اي الهي الهي لماذا تركتني.

⁴⁷And some of them stood there, when they heard it, said, This man calleth Elijah.

⁴⁷فقوم من الواقفين هناك لما سمعوا قالوا انه ينادي ايليا.

⁴⁸And straightway one of them ran, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.

⁴⁸وللوقت ركض واحد منهم واخذ اسفنجة وملأها خلا وجعلها على قصبة وسقاه.

⁴⁹And the rest said, Let be; let us see whether Elijah cometh to save him.

⁴⁹واما الباقون فقالوا اترك. لنرى هل يأتي ايليا يخلّصه.

⁵⁰And Jesus cried again with a loud voice, and yielded up his spirit.

⁵⁰فصرخ يسوع ايضا بصوت عظيم واسلم الروح

⁵¹And behold, the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake; and the rocks were rent;

⁵¹واذا حجاب الهيكل قد انشق الى اثنين من فوق الى اسفل. والارض تزلزلت والصخور تشققت.

⁵²and the tombs were opened; and many bodies of the saints that had fallen asleep were raised;

⁵²والقبور تفتحت وقام كثير من اجساد القديسين الراقدين.

⁵³and coming forth out of the tombs after his resurrection they entered into the holy city and appeared unto many.

⁵³وخرجوا من القبور بعد قيامته ودخلوا المدينة المقدسة وظهروا لكثيرين.

⁵⁴Now the centurion, and they that were with him watching Jesus, when they saw the earthquake, and the things that were done, feared exceedingly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.

⁵⁴واما قائد المئة والذين معه يحرسون يسوع فلما رأوا الزلزلة وما كان خافوا جدا وقالوا حقا كان هذا ابن الله.

⁵⁵And many women were there beholding from afar, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:

⁵⁵وكانت هناك نساء كثيرات ينظرن من بعيد وهنّ كنّ قد تبعن يسوع من الجليل يخدمنه.

⁵⁶among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

⁵⁶وبينهنّ مريم المجدلية ومريم ام يعقوب ويوسي وام ابني زبدي

⁵⁷And when even was come, there came a rich man from Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple:

⁵⁷ولما كان المساء جاء رجل غني من الرامة اسمه يوسف. وكان هو ايضا تلميذا ليسوع.

⁵⁸this man went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded it to be given up.

⁵⁸فهذا تقدم الى بيلاطس وطلب جسد يسوع. فامر بيلاطس حينئذ ان يعطى الجسد.

⁵⁹And Joseph took the body, and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,

⁵⁹فاخذ يوسف الجسد ولفه بكتان نقي.

⁶⁰and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb, and departed.

⁶⁰ووضعه في قبره الجديد الذي كان قد نحته في الصخرة ثم دحرج حجرا كبيرا على باب القبر ومضى.

⁶¹And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.

⁶¹وكانت هناك مريم المجدلية ومريم الاخرى جالستين تجاه القبر

⁶²Now on the morrow, which is [the day] after the Preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees were gathered together unto Pilate,

⁶²وفي الغد الذي بعد الاستعداد اجتمع رؤساء الكهنة والفريسيون الى بيلاطس

⁶³saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said while he was yet alive, After three days I rise again.

⁶³قائلين. يا سيد قد تذكرنا ان ذلك المضل قال وهو حيّ اني بعد ثلاثة ايام اقوم.

⁶⁴Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest haply his disciples come and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: and the last error will be worse than the first.

⁶⁴فمر بضبط القبر الى اليوم الثالث لئلا يأتي تلاميذه ليلا ويسرقوه ويقولوا للشعب انه قام من الاموات. فتكون الضلالة الاخيرة اشر من الاولى.

⁶⁵Pilate said unto them, Ye have a guard: go, make it [as] sure as ye can.

⁶⁵فقال لهم بيلاطس عندكم حراس. اذهبوا واضبطوه كما تعلمون.

⁶⁶So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, the guard being with them.

⁶⁶فمضوا وضبطوا القبر بالحراس وختموا الحجر
