² And Pilate inquired of Him, Are You the King of the Jews? And He replied, It is as you say.

³ And the chief priests kept accusing Him of many things.

⁴ And Pilate again asked Him, Have ^[b]You no answer to make? See how many charges they are bringing against You!

⁵ But Jesus made no further answer at all, so that Pilate wondered y marveled.

⁶ Now at the Feast he [was accustomed to] set free for them any one prisoner whom they requested.

⁷ And among the rioters in the prison who had committed murder in the insurrection there was a man named Barabbas.

⁸ And the throng came up and began asking Pilate to do as he usually did for them.

⁹ And he replied to them, Do you wish me to set free for you the King of the Jews?

¹⁰ For he was aware that it was [^[c]because they were prompted] by envy that the chief priests had delivered Him up.

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

¹² And again Pilate said to them, Then what shall I do with the Man Whom you call the King of the Jews?

¹³ And they shouted back again, Crucify Him!

¹⁴ But Pilate said to them, Why? What has He done that is evil? But they shouted with all their might all the more, Crucify Him [^[d]at once]!

¹⁵ So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, set Barabbas free for them; and after having Jesus whipped, he handed [Him] over to be crucified.

¹⁶ Then the soldiers led Him away to the courtyard inside the palace, that is, the Praetorium, and they called the entire detachment of soldiers together.

¹⁷ And they dressed Him in [un] purple [robe], y, weaving together a crown of thorns, they placed it on Him.

¹⁸ And they began to salute Him, Hail (greetings, good health to You, long life to You), Rey de los Judios!

¹⁹ And they struck His head with a staff made of a [bamboo-like] reed and spat on Him and kept bowing their knees in homage to Him.

²⁰ And when they had [finished] making sport of Him, they took the purple [robe] off of Him and put His own clothes on Him. And they led Him out [of the city] to crucify Him.

²¹ And they forced a passerby, Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, who was coming in from the field (country), to carry His cross.

²² And they led Him to Golgotha [in Latin: Calvary], meaning The Place of a Skull.

²³ And they [attempted to] give Him wine mingled with myrrh, but He would not take it.

²⁴ And they crucified Him; and they divided His garments y distributed them among themselves, throwing lots for them to decide who should take what.

²⁵ And it was the third hour (about nine o’clock in the morning) when they crucified Him.

²⁶ And the inscription of the accusation against Him was written above, The King of the Jews.

²⁷ And with Him they crucified two robbers, one on [His] right hand and one on His left.

^{28 [e]}And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, He was counted among the transgressors.

²⁹ And those who passed by kept reviling Him y reproaching Him abusively in harsh y insolent language, wagging their heads and saying, Aha! You Who would destroy the temple and build it in three days,

³⁰ Now rescue ^[f]Yourself [^[g]from death], coming down from the cross!

³¹ So also the chief priests, with the scribes, made sport of Him to one another, decir, He rescued others [^[h]from death]; Himself He is unable to rescue.

³² Let the Christ (the Messiah), the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see [it] and trust in y rely on Him y adhere to Him! Those who were crucified with Him also reviled y reproached Him [speaking abusively, harshly, and insolently].

³³ And when the sixth hour (about midday) had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour (about three o’clock).

³⁴ And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?—which means, My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me [^[i]deserting Me and leaving Me helpless and abandoned]?

³⁵ And some of those standing by, [y] hearing it, dicho, Ver! He is calling Elijah!

³⁶ And one man ran, y, filling a sponge with vinegar (un ^[j]mixture of sour wine and water), put it on a staff made of a [bamboo-like] reed and gave it to Him to drink, decir, Hold off! Let us see whether Elijah [does] come to take Him down.

³⁷ And Jesus uttered a loud cry, and breathed out His life.

³⁸ And the curtain [of the Holy of Holies] of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom.

³⁹ And when the centurion who stood facing Him saw Him expire this way, he said, ^[k]En realidad, this Man was God’s Son!

⁴⁰ Now some women were there also, looking on from a distance, among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salome,

⁴¹ Who, when [Jesús] was in Galilee, were in the habit of accompanying and ministering to Him; y [there were] also many other [Mujeres] who had come up with Him to Jerusalem.

⁴² As evening had already come, since it was the day of Preparation, that is, [the day] before the Sabbath,

⁴³ Joseph, he of Arimathea, noble y honorable in rank y a respected member of the council (Sanhedrin), who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God, daring the consequences, took courage y ventured to go to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

⁴⁴ But Pilate wondered whether He was dead so soon, y, having called the centurion, he asked him whether [Jesús] was already dead.

⁴⁵ And when he learned from the centurion [that He was indeed dead], he gave the body to Joseph.

⁴⁶ And Joseph bought a [fine] linen cloth [^[l]for swathing dead bodies], y, taking Him down from the cross, he ^[m]rolled Him up in the [fine] linen cloth and placed Him in a tomb which had been hewn out of a rock. Then he rolled a [very large] stone against the door of the tomb.

⁴⁷ And Mary Magdalene and Mary [the mother] of Joses were [^[n]attentively] observando donde fue puesto.
