1 When the morning came, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) to put Him to death:
2 Then they bound
Him, led Him away, and delivered Him to Son of the Sea Armed with a Spear
(Pontius Pilate), the governor.
3 Then Praise (Judas), who
had betrayed Him, when He saw that He was condemned, repented, and brought the
thirty pieces of silver back to the chief priests and elders,
4 Saying: I have sinned in
that I have betrayed innocent blood. They retorted: What is that to us? That’s
your problem.
5 Then he cast down the
pieces of silver in the temple and departed and went and hanged himself.
6 So the chief priests took
the silver pieces and said: It is not lawful to put them into the treasury,
because it is the price of blood.
7 Then they took counsel, and
bought the potter's field with it, to bury strangers in.
8 Therefore that field is
called, The Field of Blood, to this day.
9 This fulfilled that which
was spoken by Whom Jehovah Has Appointed (Jeremiah) the prophet: And they took
the thirty pieces of silver, the price of Him that was valued, whom they of the
children of God Prevails (Israel) did value.
10 And gave them for the
potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.
11 As I AM is Our Salvation
(Yeshua) stood before the governor: and the governor asked Him: Are You the
King of the Praise (Jews)? I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) said to him: You say
so.
12 Then He was accused by the
chief priests and elders, and He didn’t answer.
13 Then Armed with a Spear
(Pilate) pressed Him: Do You hear how many things they witness against you?
14 But Jesus did not answer a
word; causing the governor to marvel greatly.
15 Now at that feast the
governor traditionally released to the people a prisoner, whom they chose.
16 At that time they had a
notable prisoner, called Son of a Father (Barabbas).
17 Therefore, when they were
gathered together, Armed with a Spear (Pilate) said to them: Who do you want me
to release to you? Son of a Father (Barabbas), or I AM is Our Salvation
(Yeshua) who is called Anointed (Messiah, Christ)?
18 Because he knew that out
of envy they had delivered Him.
19 When he sat down on the
judgment seat, his wife sent him a message saying: Have nothing to do with that
just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of Him.
20 But the chief priests and
elders persuaded the multitude to ask for Son of a Father (Barabbas), and
destroy I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua).
21 The governor answered them:
Which of the two do you want me to release to you? They answered: Son of a
Father (Barabbas).
22 Armed with a Spear
(Pilate) said to them: What will I do then with I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) who
is called Anointed (Messiah, Christ)? They all shouted back to him: Let Him be
crucified!
23 Then the governor asked:
Why, what evil has He done? But they cried out all the more, saying: Let Him be
crucified!
24 When Armed with a Spear (Pilate)
saw that he could not prevail, but that rather a tumult was made, he took
water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying: I am innocent of the
blood of this just person: see to it.
25 Then all the people answered:
His blood be on us, and on our children.
26 Then he released Son of a
Father (Barabbas) to them: and when he had scourged I AM is Our Salvation
(Yeshua), he delivered Him to be crucified.
27 Then the soldiers of the
governor took I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) into the common hall and gathered
the whole band of soldiers around Him.
28 They stripped Him and put a
scarlet robe on Him.
29 Then they wove a crown of
thorns, they put it on His head, and a reed in His right hand: and they bowed
the knee before Him, and mocked Him, saying, Hail, King of the Praise (Jews)!
30 Then they spit on Him, took
the reed, and hit Him on the head.
31 After they mocked Him,
they took the robe off Him, put His own raiment on Him, and led Him away to
crucify Him.
32 And as they came out, they
found a man from Supremacy of the Bridle (Cyrene), Heard (Simon) by name: and they compelled him to bear His cross.
33 And when they came to a
place called The Skull (Golgotha),
34 They gave Him vinegar to
drink mingled with gall: and when He had tasted it, He would not drink.
35 And they crucified Him,
and parted His garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was
spoken by the prophet: They parted My garments among them, and on My vesture
did they cast lots.
36 Then they sat down and
watched Him there;
37 Set up over His head His
accusation was written: This Is I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua), The King Of The
Praise (Jews).
38 There were two thieves
crucified with Him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.
39 And those who passed by
reviled Him, wagging their heads,
40 Saying: You that destroy
the temple, and build it in three days, save Yourself. If You are the Son of
God, come down from the cross.
41 Likewise also the chief
priests mocked Him, with the scribes and elders, saying:
42 He saved others but he
cannot save Himself. If He is the King of God Prevails (Israel), let Him come
down from the cross now, and we will believe Him.
43 He trusted in God; let Him
deliver Him now, if He will have Him: He said: I am the Son of God.
44 The thieves also, who were
crucified with Him, cast the same in His teeth.
45 Now from the sixth hour
there was darkness over all the land to the ninth hour.
46 About the ninth hour I AM
is Our Salvation (Yeshua) cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama
sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why have you forsaken Me?
47 Some of them that stood
there, when they heard that, said: This man calleth for My God is I Am (Elijah).
48 And straightway one of
them ran, took a sponge, filled it with vinegar, put it on a reed, and gave it
to Him to drink.
49 The rest said: Let it be,
let us see whether My God is I Am (Elijah) will come to save Him.
50 Then, I AM is Our
Salvation (Yeshua), when He had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the
ghost.
51 At that moment, the veil
of the temple was torn in two from the top to the bottom; and the earth quaked,
and the rocks split;
52 Graves were opened, and
many bodies of the saints who slept arose,
53 They came out of the
graves after His resurrection, went into the Holy City, and appeared to many.
54 Now when the centurion,
and those who were with him, watching I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua), saw the
earthquake, and those things that happened, they feared greatly, saying: Truly
this was the Son of God.
55 Many women were there watching
from far off, who followed I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) from Circuit-District
(Galilee), ministering to Him:
56 Among which was Rebellion The
Tower (Mary Magdalene), and Rebellion
(Mary) the mother of Supplanter (James) and Exalted (Joses), and the mother of My
Gift’s (Zebedee’s) children.
57 When the evening came,
there a rich man of A Height (Arimathaea) named I AM Will Add (Joseph) came. He
also was I AM is Our Salvation’s (Yeshua’s) disciple:
58 He went to Armed With a
Spear (Pilate) and begged the body of I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua). Then Armed
With a Spear (Pilate) commanded the body to be delivered to him.
59 When I AM Will Add
(Joseph) had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth.
60 And laid it in his own new
tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock. He rolled a great stone to the door of
the sepulcher and departed.
61 Rebellion The Tower (Mary
Magdalene), and the other Rebellion (Mary), were sitting over against the sepulcher.
62 Now the next day, that
followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and The Separate
(Pharisees) came together to Armed With a Spear (Pilate),
63 Saying: Sir, we remember
that that deceiver said, while He was yet alive: After three days I will rise
again.
64 Therefore command that the
sepulcher be made sure until the third day, lest His disciples come by night,
and steal Him away, and say to the people, He is risen from the dead: so the
last error will be worse than the first.
65 Armed With a Spear (Pilate)
said to them: You have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as you can.
66 So they went to make the sepulcher
sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch.
