¹The whole company of them rose up and brought him before Pilate.

¹فقام كل جمهورهم وجاءوا به الى بيلاطس.

²They began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man perverting the nation, forbidding paying taxes to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ, a king.”

²وابتدأوا يشتكون عليه قائلين اننا وجدنا هذا يفسد الامة ويمنع ان تعطى جزية لقيصر قائلا انه هو مسيح ملك.

³Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered him, “So you say.”

³فسأله بيلاطس قائلا انت ملك اليهود. فاجابه وقال انت تقول.

⁴Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”

⁴فقال بيلاطس لرؤساء الكهنة والجموع اني لا اجد علّة في هذا الانسان.

⁵But they insisted, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place.”

⁵فكانوا يشددون قائلين انه يهيج الشعب وهو يعلّم في كل اليهودية مبتدئا من الجليل الى هنا.

⁶But when Pilate heard Galilee mentioned, he asked if the man was a Galilean.

⁶فلما سمع بيلاطس ذكر الجليل سأل هل الرجل جليلي.

⁷When he found out that he was in Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem during those days.

⁷وحين علم انه من سلطنة هيرودس ارسله الى هيرودس اذ كان هو ايضا تلك الايام في اورشليم

⁸Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad, for he had wanted to see him for a long time, because he had heard many things about him. He hoped to see some miracle done by him.

⁸واما هيرودس فلما رأى يسوع فرح جدا لانه كان يريد من زمان طويل ان يراه لسماعه عنه اشياء كثيرة وترجى ان يرى آية تصنع منه.

⁹He questioned him with many words, but he gave no answers.

⁹وسأله بكلام كثير فلم يجبه بشيء.

¹⁰The chief priests and the scribes stood, vehemently accusing him.

¹⁰ووقف رؤساء الكهنة والكتبة يشتكون عليه باشتداد.

¹¹Herod with his soldiers humiliated him and mocked him. Dressing him in luxurious clothing, they sent him back to Pilate.

¹¹فاحتقره هيرودس مع عسكره واستهزأ به والبسه لباسا لامعا ورده الى بيلاطس.

¹²Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before that they were enemies with each other.

¹²فصار بيلاطس وهيرودس صديقين مع بعضهما في ذلك اليوم لانهما كانا من قبل في عداوة بينهما

¹³Pilate called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,

¹³فدعا بيلاطس رؤساء الكهنة والعظماء والشعب

¹⁴and said to them, “You brought this man to me as one that perverts the people, and see, I have examined him before you, and found no basis for a charge against this man concerning those things of which you accuse him.

¹⁴وقال لهم. قد قدمتم اليّ هذا الانسان كمن يفسد الشعب. وها انا قد فحصت قدامكم ولم اجد في هذا الانسان علّة مما تشتكون به عليه.

¹⁵Neither has Herod, for I sent you to him, and see, nothing worthy of death has been done by him.

¹⁵ولا هيرودس ايضا. لاني ارسلتكم اليه. وها لا شيء يستحق الموت صنع منه.

¹⁶I will therefore chastise him and release him.”

¹⁶فانا أؤدبه واطلقه.

¹⁷Now he had to release one prisoner to them at the feast.

¹⁷وكان مضطرا ان يطلق لهم كل عيد واحدا.

¹⁸But they all cried out together, saying, “Away with this man! Release to us Barabbas!”—

¹⁸فصرخوا بجملتهم قائلين خذ هذا واطلق لنا باراباس.

¹⁹one who was thrown into prison for a certain revolt in the city, and for murder.

¹⁹وذاك كان قد طرح في السجن لاجل فتنة حدثت في المدينة وقتل.

²⁰Then Pilate spoke to them again, wanting to release Jesus,

²⁰فناداهم ايضا بيلاطس وهو يريد ان يطلق يسوع.

²¹but they shouted, saying, “Crucify! Crucify him!”

²¹فصرخوا قائلين اصلبه اصلبه.

²²He said to them the third time, “Why? What evil has this man done? I have found no capital crime in him. I will therefore chastise him and release him.”

²²فقال لهم ثالثة فاي شر عمل هذا. اني لم اجد فيه علّة للموت. فانا أؤدبه واطلقه.

²³But they were urgent with loud voices, asking that he might be crucified. Their voices and the voices of the chief priests prevailed.

²³فكانوا يلجّون باصوات عظيمة طالبين ان يصلب. فقويت اصواتهم واصوات رؤساء الكهنة.

²⁴Pilate decreed that what they asked for should be done.

²⁴فحكم بيلاطس ان تكون طلبتهم.

²⁵He released him who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, for whom they asked, but he delivered Jesus up to their will.

²⁵فاطلق لهم الذي طرح في السجن لاجل فتنة وقتل الذي طلبوه واسلم يسوع لمشيئتهم

²⁶When they led him away, they grabbed one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, and laid on him the cross, to carry it after Jesus.

²⁶ولما مضوا به امسكوا سمعان رجلا قيروانيا كان آتيا من الحقل ووضعوا عليه الصليب ليحمله خلف يسوع.

²⁷A great multitude of the people followed him, including women who also mourned and lamented him.

²⁷وتبعه جمهور كثير من الشعب والنساء اللواتي كنّ يلطمن ايضا وينحن عليه.

²⁸But Jesus, turning to them, said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, don’t weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

²⁸فالتفت اليهنّ يسوع وقال. يا بنات اورشليم لا تبكين عليّ بل ابكين على انفسكنّ وعلى اولادكنّ.

²⁹ For behold, the days are coming in which they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren, the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.’

²⁹لانه هوذا ايام تأتي يقولون فيها طوبى للعواقر والبطون التي لم تلد والثدي التي لم ترضع.

³⁰ Then they will begin to tell the mountains, ‘Fall on us!’ and tell the hills, ‘Cover us.’ Hosea 10:8

³⁰حينئذ يبتدئون يقولون للجبال اسقطي علينا وللآكام غطينا.

³¹ For if they do these things in the green tree, what will be done in the dry?”

³¹لانه ان كانوا بالعود الرطب يفعلون هذا فماذا يكون باليابس.

³²There were also others, two criminals, led with him to be put to death.

³²وجاءوا ايضا باثنين آخرين مذنبين ليقتلا معه

³³When they came to the place that is called The Skull, they crucified him there with the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left.

³³ولما مضوا به الى الموضع الذي يدعى جمجمة صلبوه هناك مع المذنبين واحدا عن يمينه والآخر عن يساره.

³⁴Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.” Dividing his garments among them, they cast lots.

³⁴فقال يسوع يا ابتاه اغفر لهم لانهم لا يعلمون ماذا يفعلون. واذ اقتسموا ثيابه اقترعوا عليها

³⁵The people stood watching. The rulers with them also scoffed at him, saying, “He saved others. Let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, his chosen one!”

³⁵وكان الشعب واقفين ينظرون. والرؤساء ايضا معهم يسخرون به قائلين خلّص آخرين فليخلّص نفسه ان كان هو المسيح مختار الله.

³⁶The soldiers also mocked him, coming to him and offering him vinegar,

³⁶والجند ايضا استهزأوا به وهم يأتون ويقدمون له خلا

³⁷and saying, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!”

³⁷قائلين ان كنت انت ملك اليهود فخلّص نفسك.

³⁸An inscription was also written over him in letters of Greek, Latin, and Hebrew: “THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.”

³⁸وكان عنوان مكتوب فوقه باحرف يونانية ورومانية وعبرانية هذا هو ملك اليهود.

³⁹One of the criminals who was hanged insulted him, saying, “If you are the Christ, save yourself and us!”

³⁹وكان واحد من المذنبين المعلقين يجدف عليه قائلا ان كنت انت المسيح فخلّص نفسك وإيانا.

⁴⁰But the other answered, and rebuking him said, “Don’t you even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?

⁴⁰فاجاب الآخر وانتهره قائلا أولا انت تخاف الله اذ انت تحت هذا الحكم بعينه.

⁴¹And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward for our deeds, but this man has done nothing wrong.”

⁴¹اما نحن فبعدل لاننا ننال استحقاق ما فعلنا. واما هذا فلم يفعل شيئا ليس في محله.

⁴²He said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when you come into your Kingdom.”

⁴²ثم قال ليسوع اذكرني يا رب متى جئت في ملكوتك.

⁴³Jesus said to him, “Assuredly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”

⁴³فقال له يسوع الحق اقول لك انك اليوم تكون معي في الفردوس

⁴⁴It was now about the sixth hour Time was counted from sunrise, so the sixth hour was about noon. , and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour. 3:00 PM

⁴⁴وكان نحو الساعة السادسة. فكانت ظلمة على الارض كلها الى الساعة التاسعة.

⁴⁵The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two.

⁴⁵واظلمت الشمس وانشقّ حجاب الهيكل من وسطه.

⁴⁶Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” Having said this, he breathed his last.

⁴⁶ونادى يسوع بصوت عظيم وقال يا ابتاه في يديك استودع روحي. ولما قال هذا اسلم الروح.

⁴⁷When the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, “Certainly this was a righteous man.”

⁴⁷فلما رأى قائد المئة ما كان مجّد الله قائلا بالحقيقة كان هذا الانسان بارا.

⁴⁸All the multitudes that came together to see this, when they saw the things that were done, returned home beating their breasts.

⁴⁸وكل الجموع الذين كانوا مجتمعين لهذا المنظر لما ابصروا ما كان رجعوا وهم يقرعون صدورهم.

⁴⁹All his acquaintances, and the women who followed with him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching these things.

⁴⁹وكان جميع معارفه ونساء كنّ قد تبعنه من الجليل واقفين من بعيد ينظرون ذلك

⁵⁰Behold, a man named Joseph, who was a member of the council, a good and righteous man

⁵⁰واذا رجل اسمه يوسف وكان مشيرا ورجلا صالحا بارا.

⁵¹(he had not consented to their counsel and deed), from Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, who was also waiting for the Kingdom of God:

⁵¹هذا لم يكن موافقا لرأيهم وعملهم. وهو من الرامة مدينة لليهود. وكان هو ايضا ينتظر ملكوت الله.

⁵²this man went to Pilate, and asked for Jesus’ body.

⁵²هذا تقدم الى بيلاطس وطلب جسد يسوع.

⁵³He took it down, and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that was cut in stone, where no one had ever been laid.

⁵³وانزله ولفه بكتان ووضعه في قبر منحوت حيث لم يكن احد وضع قط.

⁵⁴It was the day of the Preparation, and the Sabbath was drawing near.

⁵⁴وكان يوم الاستعداد والسبت يلوح.

⁵⁵The women, who had come with him out of Galilee, followed after, and saw the tomb, and how his body was laid.

⁵⁵وتبعته نساء كنّ قد أتين معه من الجليل ونظرن القبر وكيف وضع جسده.

⁵⁶They returned, and prepared spices and ointments. On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.

⁵⁶فرجعن وأعددن حنوطا واطيابا. وفي السبت استرحن حسب الوصية
