¹[] Οτε δε εγεινε πρωι, συνεβουλευθησαν παντες οι αρχιερεις και οι πρεσβυτεροι του λαου κατα του Ιησου δια να θανατωσωσιν αυτον·

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

²και δεσαντες αυτον, εφεραν και παρεδωκαν αυτον εις τον Ποντιον Πιλατον τον ηγεμονα.

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

³Τοτε ιδων Ιουδας ο παραδοσας αυτον οτι κατεδικασθη, μεταμεληθεις επεστρεψε τα τριακοντα αργυρια εις τους πρεσβυτερους,

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

⁴λεγων· Ημαρτον παραδοσας αιμα αθωον. Οι δε ειπον· Τι προς ημας; συ οψει.

⁴saying, “I have sinned in that I betrayed innocent blood.” But they said, “What is that to us? You see to it.”

⁵Και ριψας τα αργυρια εν τω ναω, ανεχωρησε και απελθων εκρεμασθη.

⁵He threw down the pieces of silver in the sanctuary, and departed. He went away and hanged himself.

⁶Οι δε αρχιερεις, λαβοντες τα αργυρια, ειπον· Δεν ειναι συγκεχωρημενον να βαλωμεν αυτα εις το θησαυροφυλακιον, διοτι ειναι τιμη αιματος.

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

⁷Και συμβουλευθεντες ηγορασαν με αυτα τον αγρον του κεραμεως, δια να ενταφιαζωνται εκει οι ξενοι.

⁷They took counsel, and bought the potter’s field with them, to bury strangers in.

⁸Δια τουτο ωνομασθη ο αγρος εκεινος Αγρος αιματος εως της σημερον.

⁸Therefore that field was called “The Field of Blood” to this day.

⁹Τοτε επληρωθη το ρηθεν δια Ιερεμιου του προφητου, λεγοντος· Και ελαβον τα τριακοντα αργυρια, την τιμην του εκτιμηθεντος, τον οποιον εξετιμησαν απο των υιων Ισραηλ,

⁹Then that which was spoken through Jeremiah some manuscripts omit “Jeremiah” the prophet was fulfilled, saying, “They took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him upon whom a price had been set, whom some of the children of Israel priced,

¹⁰και εδωκαν αυτα εις τον αγρον του κεραμεως, καθως μοι παρηγγειλεν ο Κυριος.

¹⁰and they gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord commanded me.” Zechariah 11:12-13; Jeremiah 19:1-13; 32:6-9

¹¹[] Ο δε Ιησους εσταθη εμπροσθεν του ηγεμονος· και ηρωτησεν αυτον ο ηγεμων, λεγων· Συ εισαι ο βασιλευς των Ιουδαιων; Ο δε Ιησους ειπε προς αυτον· Συ λεγεις.

¹¹Now Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, “Are you the King of the Jews?” Jesus said to him, “So you say.”

¹²Και ενω εκατηγορειτο υπο των αρχιερεων και των πρεσβυτερων, ουδεν απεκριθη.

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

¹³Τοτε λεγει προς αυτον ο Πιλατος· Δεν ακουεις ποσα σου καταμαρτυρουσι;

¹³Then Pilate said to him, “Don’t you hear how many things they testify against you?”

¹⁴Και δεν απεκριθη προς αυτον ουδε προς ενα λογον, ωστε ο ηγεμων εθαυμαζε πολυ.

¹⁴He gave him no answer, not even one word, so that the governor marveled greatly.

¹⁵Κατα δε την εορτην εσυνειθιζεν ο ηγεμων να απολυη εις τον οχλον ενα δεσμιον, οντινα ηθελον.

¹⁵Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to release to the multitude one prisoner, whom they desired.

¹⁶Και ειχον τοτε δεσμιον περιβοητον λεγομενον Βαραββαν.

¹⁶They had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.

¹⁷Ενω λοιπον ησαν συνηγμενοι, ειπε προς αυτους ο Πιλατος· Τινα θελετε να σας απολυσω; τον Βαραββαν η τον Ιησουν τον λεγομενον Χριστον;

¹⁷When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?”

¹⁸Επειδη ηξευρεν οτι δια φθονον παρεδωκαν αυτον.

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

¹⁹Ενω δε εκαθητο επι του βηματος, απεστειλε προς αυτον η γυνη αυτου, λεγουσα· Απεχε του δικαιου εκεινου· διοτι πολλα επαθον σημερον κατ' οναρ δι' αυτον.

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

²⁰Οι δε αρχιερεις και οι πρεσβυτεροι επεισαν τους οχλους να ζητησωσι τον Βαραββαν, τον δε Ιησουν να απολεσωσι.

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

²¹Και αποκριθεις ο ηγεμων ειπε προς αυτους· Τινα θελετε απο των δυο να σας απολυσω; οι δε ειπον· Τον Βαραββαν.

²¹But the governor answered them, “Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” They said, “Barabbas!”

²²Λεγει προς αυτους ο Πιλατος· Τι λοιπον να καμω τον Ιησουν τον λεγομενον Χριστον; Λεγουσι προς αυτον παντες· Σταυρωθητω.

²²Pilate said to them, “What then shall I do to Jesus, who is called Christ?” They all said to him, “Let him be crucified!”

²³Ο δε ηγεμων ειπε· Και τι κακον επραξεν; Οι δε περισσοτερον εκραζον, λεγοντες· Σταυρωθητω.

²³But the governor said, “Why? What evil has he done?” But they cried out exceedingly, saying, “Let him be crucified!”

²⁴Και ιδων ο Πιλατος οτι ουδεν ωφελει, αλλα μαλλον θορυβος γινεται, λαβων υδωρ ενιψε τας χειρας αυτου εμπροσθεν του οχλου, λεγων· Αθωος ειμαι απο του αιματος του δικαιου τουτου· υμεις οψεσθε.

²⁴So when Pilate saw that nothing was being gained, but rather that a disturbance was starting, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, “I am innocent of the blood of this righteous person. You see to it.”

²⁵Και αποκριθεις πας ο λαος ειπε· Το αιμα αυτου ας ηναι εφ' ημας και επι τα τεκνα ημων.

²⁵All the people answered, “May his blood be on us, and on our children!”

²⁶[] Τοτε απελυσεν εις αυτους τον Βαραββαν, τον δε Ιησουν μαστιγωσας παρεδωκε δια να σταυρωθη.

²⁶Then he released to them Barabbas, but Jesus he flogged and delivered to be crucified.

²⁷Τοτε οι στρατιωται του ηγεμονος, παραλαβοντες τον Ιησουν εις το πραιτωριον, συνηθροισαν επ' αυτον ολον το ταγμα των στρατιωτων·

²⁷Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium, and gathered the whole garrison together against him.

²⁸και εκδυσαντες αυτον ενεδυσαν αυτον χλαμυδα κοκκινην,

²⁸They stripped him, and put a scarlet robe on him.

²⁹και πλεξαντες στεφανον εξ ακανθων, εθεσαν επι την κεφαλην αυτου και καλαμον εις την δεξιαν αυτου, και γονυπετησαντες εμπροσθεν αυτου, ενεπαιζον αυτον, λεγοντες· Χαιρε, ο βασιλευς των Ιουδαιων·

²⁹They braided a crown of thorns and put it on his head, and a reed in his right hand; and they kneeled down before him, and mocked him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”

³⁰και εμπτυσαντες εις αυτον ελαβον τον καλαμον και ετυπτον εις την κεφαλην αυτου.

³⁰They spat on him, and took the reed and struck him on the head.

³¹Και αφου ενεπαιξαν αυτον, εξεδυσαν αυτον την χλαμυδα και ενεδυσαν αυτον τα ιματια αυτου, και εφεραν αυτον δια να σταυρωσωσιν.

³¹When they had mocked him, they took the robe off of him, and put his clothes on him, and led him away to crucify him.

³²Ενω δε εξηρχοντο, ευρον ανθρωπον Κυρηναιον, ονομαζομενον Σιμωνα· τουτον ηγγαρευσαν δια να σηκωση τον σταυρον αυτου.

³²As they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name, and they compelled him to go with them, that he might carry his cross.

³³[] Και οτε ηλθον εις τοπον λεγομενον Γολγοθα, οστις λεγεται Κρανιου τοπος,

³³They came to a place called “Golgotha,” that is to say, “The place of a skull.”

³⁴εδωκαν εις αυτον να πιη οξος μεμιγμενον μετα χολης· και γευθεις δεν ηθελε να πιη.

³⁴They gave him sour wine to drink mixed with gall. When he had tasted it, he would not drink.

³⁵Αφου δε εσταυρωσαν αυτον διεμερισθησαν τα ιματια αυτου, βαλλοντες κληρον, δια να πληρωθη το ρηθεν υπο του προφητου, Διεμερισθησαν τα ιματια μου εις εαυτους και επι τον ιματισμον μου εβαλον κληρον.

³⁵When they had crucified him, they divided his clothing among them, casting lots, TR adds “that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet: ‘They divided my garments among them, and for my clothing they cast lots;’” [see Psalm 22:18 and John 19:24]

³⁶Και καθημενοι εφυλαττον αυτον εκει.

³⁶and they sat and watched him there.

³⁷Και εθεσαν επανωθεν της κεφαλης αυτου την κατηγοριαν αυτου γεγραμμενην· Ουτος εστιν Ιησους ο βασιλευς των Ιουδαιων.

³⁷They set up over his head the accusation against him written, “THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS.”

³⁸Τοτε εσταυρωθησαν μετ' αυτου δυο λησται, εις εκ δεξιων και εις εξ αριστερων.

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

³⁹οι δε διαβαινοντες εβλασφημουν αυτον, κινουντες τας κεφαλας αυτων

³⁹Those who passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads,

⁴⁰και λεγοντες· Ο χαλων τον ναον και δια τριων ημερων οικοδομων, σωσον σεαυτον· αν ησαι Υιος του Θεου, καταβα απο του σταυρου.

⁴⁰and saying, “You who destroy the temple, and build it in three days, save yourself! If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross!”

⁴¹Ομοιως δε και οι αρχιερεις εμπαιζοντες μετα των γραμματεων και πρεσβυτερων, ελεγον.

⁴¹Likewise the chief priests also mocking, with the scribes, the Pharisees, TR omits “the Pharisees” and the elders, said,

⁴²Αλλους εσωσεν, εαυτον δεν δυναται να σωση· αν ηναι βασιλευς του Ισραηλ, ας καταβη τωρα απο του σταυρου και θελομεν πιστευσει εις αυτον·

⁴²“He saved others, but he can’t save himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him come down from the cross now, and we will believe in him.

⁴³πεποιθεν επι τον Θεον, ας σωση τωρα αυτον, εαν θελη αυτον· επειδη ειπεν οτι Θεου Υιος ειμαι.

⁴³He trusts in God. Let God deliver him now, if he wants him; for he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”

⁴⁴Το αυτο δε και οι λησται οι συσταυρωθεντες μετ' αυτου ωνειδιζον εις αυτον.

⁴⁴The robbers also who were crucified with him cast on him the same reproach.

⁴⁵Απο δε εκτης ωρας σκοτος εγεινεν εφ' ολην την γην εως ωρας εννατης·

⁴⁵Now from the sixth hour noon there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour. 3:00 P. M.

⁴⁶περι δε την εννατην ωραν ανεβοησεν ο Ιησους μετα φωνης μεγαλης, λεγων· Ηλι, Ηλι, λαμα σαβαχθανι; τουτεστι, Θεε μου, Θεε μου, δια τι με εγκατελιπες;

⁴⁶About the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lima TR reads “lama” instead of “lima” sabachthani?” That is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” Psalm 22:1

⁴⁷Και τινες των εκει εστωτων ακουσαντες, ελεγον οτι τον Ηλιαν φωναζει ουτος.

⁴⁷Some of them who stood there, when they heard it, said, “This man is calling Elijah.”

⁴⁸Και ευθυς εδραμεν εις εξ αυτων και λαβων σπογγον και γεμισας οξους και περιθεσας εις καλαμον εποτιζεν αυτον.

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

⁴⁹Οι δε λοιποι ελεγον· Αφες, ας ιδωμεν αν ερχηται ο Ηλιας να σωση αυτον.

⁴⁹The rest said, “Let him be. Let’s see whether Elijah comes to save him.”

⁵⁰[] Ο δε Ιησους παλιν κραξας μετα φωνης μεγαλης, αφηκε το πνευμα.

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

⁵¹Και ιδου, το καταπετασμα του ναου εσχισθη εις δυο απο ανωθεν εως κατω, και η γη εσεισθη και αι πετραι εσχισθησαν,

⁵¹Behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from the top to the bottom. The earth quaked and the rocks were split.

⁵²και τα μνημεια ηνοιχθησαν και πολλα σωματα των κεκοιμημενων αγιων ανεστησαν,

⁵²The tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised;

⁵³και εξελθοντες εκ των μνημειων μετα την αναστασιν αυτου εισηλθον εις την αγιαν πολιν και ενεφανισθησαν εις πολλους.

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

⁵⁴Ο δε εκατονταρχος και οι μετ' αυτου φυλαττοντες τον Ιησουν, ιδοντες τον σεισμον και τα γενομενα, εφοβηθησαν σφοδρα, λεγοντες· Αληθως Θεου Υιος ητο ουτος.

⁵⁴Now the centurion, and those who 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.”

⁵⁵Ησαν δε εκει γυναικες πολλαι απο μακροθεν θεωρουσαι, αιτινες ηκολουθησαν τον Ιησουν απο της Γαλιλαιας υπηρετουσαι αυτον·

⁵⁵Many women were there watching from afar, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, serving him.

⁵⁶μεταξυ των οποιων ητο Μαρια η Μαγδαληνη, και Μαρια η μητηρ του Ιακωβου και Ιωση, και η μητηρ των υιων Ζεβεδαιου.

⁵⁶Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

⁵⁷[] Οτε δε εγεινεν εσπερα, ηλθεν ανθρωπος πλουσιος απο Αριμαθαιας, το ονομα Ιωσηφ, οστις και αυτος εμαθητευσεν εις τον Ιησουν·

⁵⁷When evening had come, a rich man from Arimathaea, named Joseph, who himself was also Jesus’ disciple came.

⁵⁸ουτος ελθων προς τον Πιλατον, εζητησε το σωμα του Ιησου. Τοτε ο Πιλατος προσεταξε να αποδοθη το σωμα.

⁵⁸This man went to Pilate, and asked for Jesus’ body. Then Pilate commanded the body to be given up.

⁵⁹Και λαβων το σωμα ο Ιωσηφ, ετυλιξεν αυτο με σινδονα καθαραν,

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

⁶⁰και εθεσεν αυτο εν τω νεω αυτου μνημειω, το οποιον ελατομησεν εν τη πετρα, και προσκυλισας λιθον μεγαν εις την θυραν του μνημειου ανεχωρησεν.

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

⁶¹Ητο δε εκει Μαρια η Μαγδαληνη και η αλλη Μαρια, καθημεναι απεναντι του ταφου.

⁶¹Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the tomb.

⁶²Και τη επαυριον, ητις ειναι μετα την παρασκευην, συνηχθησαν οι αρχιερεις και οι Φαρισαιοι προς τον Πιλατον

⁶²Now on the next day, which was the day after the Preparation Day, the chief priests and the Pharisees were gathered together to Pilate,

⁶³λεγοντες· Κυριε, ενεθυμηθημεν οτι εκεινος ο πλανος ειπεν ετι ζων, Μετα τρεις ημερας θελω αναστηθη.

⁶³saying, “Sir, we remember what that deceiver said while he was still alive: ‘After three days I will rise again.’

⁶⁴Προσταξον λοιπον να ασφαλισθη ο ταφος εως της τριτης ημερας, μηποτε οι μαθηται αυτου ελθοντες δια νυκτος κλεψωσιν αυτον και ειπωσι προς τον λαον, Ανεστη εκ των νεκρων· και θελει εισθαι η εσχατη πλανη χειροτερα της πρωτης.

⁶⁴Command therefore that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest perhaps his disciples come at night and steal him away, and tell the people, ‘He is risen from the dead;’ and the last deception will be worse than the first.”

⁶⁵Ειπε δε προς αυτους ο Πιλατος· Εχετε φυλακας· υπαγετε, ασφαλισατε καθως εξευρετε.

⁶⁵Pilate said to them, “You have a guard. Go, make it as secure as you can.”

⁶⁶Οι δε υπηγον και ησφαλισαν τον ταφον, σφραγισαντες τον λιθον και επιστησαντες τους φυλακας.

⁶⁶So they went with the guard and made the tomb secure, sealing the stone.
