Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1Then the whole council rose and led Jesus away to Pilate.
1και ανασταν απαν το πληθοσ αυτων ηγαγον αυτον επι τον πιλατον
2And they began to accuse Him, saying, “We found this man subverting our nation, forbidding payment of taxes to Caesar, and proclaiming Himself to be Christ, a King.”
2ηρξαντο δε κατηγορειν αυτου λεγοντεσ τουτον ευρομεν διαστρεφοντα το εθνοσ και κωλυοντα καισαρι φορουσ διδοναι λεγοντα εαυτον χριστον βασιλεα ειναι
3So Pilate asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” “You have said so,” Jesus replied.
3ο δε πιλατοσ επηρωτησεν αυτον λεγων συ ει ο βασιλευσ των ιουδαιων ο δε αποκριθεισ αυτω εφη συ λεγεισ
4Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”
4ο δε πιλατοσ ειπεν προσ τουσ αρχιερεισ και τουσ οχλουσ ουδεν ευρισκω αιτιον εν τω ανθρωπω τουτω
5But they kept insisting, “He stirs up the people all over Judea with His teaching. He began in Galilee and has come all the way here.”
5οι δε επισχυον λεγοντεσ οτι ανασειει τον λαον διδασκων καθ ολησ τησ ιουδαιασ αρξαμενοσ απο τησ γαλιλαιασ εωσ ωδε
6When Pilate heard this, he asked if the man was a Galilean.
6πιλατοσ δε ακουσασ γαλιλαιαν επηρωτησεν ει ο ανθρωποσ γαλιλαιοσ εστιν
7And learning that Jesus was under Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who himself was in Jerusalem at that time.
7και επιγνουσ οτι εκ τησ εξουσιασ ηρωδου εστιν ανεπεμψεν αυτον προσ ηρωδην οντα και αυτον εν ιεροσολυμοισ εν ταυταισ ταισ ημεραισ
8When Herod saw Jesus, he was greatly pleased. He had wanted to see Him for a long time, because he had heard about Him and was hoping to see Him perform a miracle.
8ο δε ηρωδησ ιδων τον ιησουν εχαρη λιαν ην γαρ θελων εξ ικανου ιδειν αυτον δια το ακουειν πολλα περι αυτου και ηλπιζεν τι σημειον ιδειν υπ αυτου γινομενον
9Herod questioned Jesus at great length, but He gave no answer.
9επηρωτα δε αυτον εν λογοισ ικανοισ αυτοσ δε ουδεν απεκρινατο αυτω
10Meanwhile, the chief priests and scribes stood there, vehemently accusing Him.
10ειστηκεισαν δε οι αρχιερεισ και οι γραμματεισ ευτονωσ κατηγορουντεσ αυτου
11And even Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked Him. Dressing Him in a fine robe, they sent Him back to Pilate.
11εξουθενησασ δε αυτον ο ηρωδησ συν τοισ στρατευμασιν αυτου και εμπαιξασ περιβαλων αυτον εσθητα λαμπραν ανεπεμψεν αυτον τω πιλατω
12That day Herod and Pilate became friends; before this time they had been enemies.
12εγενοντο δε φιλοι ο τε πιλατοσ και ο ηρωδησ εν αυτη τη ημερα μετ αλληλων προυπηρχον γαρ εν εχθρα οντεσ προσ εαυτουσ
13Then Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,
13πιλατοσ δε συγκαλεσαμενοσ τουσ αρχιερεισ και τουσ αρχοντασ και τον λαον
14and said to them, “You brought me this man as one who was inciting the people to rebellion. I have examined Him here in your presence and found Him not guilty of your charges against Him.
14ειπεν προσ αυτουσ προσηνεγκατε μοι τον ανθρωπον τουτον ωσ αποστρεφοντα τον λαον και ιδου εγω ενωπιον υμων ανακρινασ ουδεν ευρον εν τω ανθρωπω τουτω αιτιον ων κατηγορειτε κατ αυτου
15Neither has Herod, for he sent Him back to us. As you can see, He has done nothing deserving of death.
15αλλ ουδε ηρωδησ ανεπεμψα γαρ υμασ προσ αυτον και ιδου ουδεν αξιον θανατου εστιν πεπραγμενον αυτω
16Therefore I will punish Him and release Him.”
16παιδευσασ ουν αυτον απολυσω
no verse 17 in this text
17αναγκην δε ειχεν απολυειν αυτοισ κατα εορτην ενα
18But they all cried out in unison: “Away with this man! Release Barabbas to us!”
18ανεκραξαν δε παμπληθει λεγοντεσ αιρε τουτον απολυσον δε ημιν βαραββαν
19(Barabbas had been imprisoned for an insurrection in the city, and for murder.)
19οστισ ην δια στασιν τινα γενομενην εν τη πολει και φονον βεβλημενοσ εισ φυλακην
20Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate addressed them again,
20παλιν ουν ο πιλατοσ προσεφωνησεν θελων απολυσαι τον ιησουν
21but they kept shouting, “Crucify Him! Crucify Him!”
21οι δε επεφωνουν λεγοντεσ σταυρωσον σταυρωσον αυτον
22A third time he said to them, “What evil has this man done? I have found in Him no offense worthy of death. So after I punish Him, I will release Him.”
22ο δε τριτον ειπεν προσ αυτουσ τι γαρ κακον εποιησεν ουτοσ ουδεν αιτιον θανατου ευρον εν αυτω παιδευσασ ουν αυτον απολυσω
23But they were insistent, demanding with loud voices for Jesus to be crucified. And their clamor prevailed.
23οι δε επεκειντο φωναισ μεγαλαισ αιτουμενοι αυτον σταυρωθηναι και κατισχυον αι φωναι αυτων και των αρχιερεων
24So Pilate sentenced that their demand be met.
24ο δε πιλατοσ επεκρινεν γενεσθαι το αιτημα αυτων
25As they had requested, he released the one imprisoned for insurrection and murder, and handed Jesus over to their will.
25απελυσεν δε τον δια στασιν και φονον βεβλημενον εισ την φυλακην ον ητουντο τον δε ιησουν παρεδωκεν τω θεληματι αυτων
26As the soldiers led Him away, they seized Simon of Cyrene on his way in from the country, and put the cross on him to carry behind Jesus.
26και ωσ απηγαγον αυτον επιλαβομενοι σιμωνοσ τινοσ κυρηναιου ερχομενου απ αγρου επεθηκαν αυτω τον σταυρον φερειν οπισθεν του ιησου
27A great number of people followed Him, including women who kept mourning and wailing for Him.
27ηκολουθει δε αυτω πολυ πληθοσ του λαου και γυναικων αι και εκοπτοντο και εθρηνουν αυτον
28But Jesus turned to them and said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
28στραφεισ δε προσ αυτασ ο ιησουσ ειπεν θυγατερεσ ιερουσαλημ μη κλαιετε επ εμε πλην εφ εαυτασ κλαιετε και επι τα τεκνα υμων
29Look, the days are coming when people will say, ‘Blessed are the barren women, the wombs that never bore, and breasts that never nursed!’
29οτι ιδου ερχονται ημεραι εν αισ ερουσιν μακαριαι αι στειραι και κοιλιαι αι ουκ εγεννησαν και μαστοι οι ουκ εθηλασαν
30At that time ‘they will say to the mountains, “Fall on us!” and to the hills, “Cover us!”’
30τοτε αρξονται λεγειν τοισ ορεσιν πεσετε εφ ημασ και τοισ βουνοισ καλυψατε ημασ
31For if men do these things while the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”
31οτι ει εν τω υγρω ξυλω ταυτα ποιουσιν εν τω ξηρω τι γενηται
32Two others, who were criminals, were also led away to be executed with Jesus.
32ηγοντο δε και ετεροι δυο κακουργοι συν αυτω αναιρεθηναι
33When they came to the place called The Skull, they crucified Him there, along with the criminals, one on His right and the other on His left.
33και οτε απηλθον επι τον τοπον τον καλουμενον κρανιον εκει εσταυρωσαν αυτον και τουσ κακουργουσ ον μεν εκ δεξιων ον δε εξ αριστερων
34Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” And they divided up His garments by casting lots.
34ο δε ιησουσ ελεγεν πατερ αφεσ αυτοισ ου γαρ οιδασιν τι ποιουσιν διαμεριζομενοι δε τα ιματια αυτου εβαλον κληρον
35The people stood watching, and the rulers sneered at Him, saying, “He saved others; let Him save Himself if He is the Christ of God, the Chosen One.”
35και ειστηκει ο λαοσ θεωρων εξεμυκτηριζον δε και οι αρχοντεσ συν αυτοισ λεγοντεσ αλλουσ εσωσεν σωσατω εαυτον ει ουτοσ εστιν ο χριστοσ ο του θεου εκλεκτοσ
36The soldiers also mocked Him and came up to offer Him sour wine.
36ενεπαιζον δε αυτω και οι στρατιωται προσερχομενοι και οξοσ προσφεροντεσ αυτω
37“If You are the King of the Jews,” they said, “save Yourself!”
37και λεγοντεσ ει συ ει ο βασιλευσ των ιουδαιων σωσον σεαυτον
38Above Him was posted an inscription: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38ην δε και επιγραφη γεγραμμενη επ αυτω γραμμασιν ελληνικοισ και ρωμαικοισ και εβραικοισ ουτοσ εστιν ο βασιλευσ των ιουδαιων
39One of the criminals who hung there heaped abuse on Him. “Are You not the Christ?” he said. “Save Yourself and us!”
39εισ δε των κρεμασθεντων κακουργων εβλασφημει αυτον λεγων ει συ ει ο χριστοσ σωσον σεαυτον και ημασ
40But the other one rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same judgment?
40αποκριθεισ δε ο ετεροσ επετιμα αυτω λεγων ουδε φοβη συ τον θεον οτι εν τω αυτω κριματι ει
41We are punished justly, for we are receiving what our actions deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.”
41και ημεισ μεν δικαιωσ αξια γαρ ων επραξαμεν απολαμβανομεν ουτοσ δε ουδεν ατοπον επραξεν
42Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when You come into Your kingdom!”
42και ελεγεν τω ιησου μνησθητι μου κυριε οταν ελθησ εν τη βασιλεια σου
43And Jesus said to him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”
43και ειπεν αυτω ο ιησουσ αμην λεγω σοι σημερον μετ εμου εση εν τω παραδεισω
44It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over all the land until the ninth hour.
44ην δε ωσει ωρα εκτη και σκοτοσ εγενετο εφ ολην την γην εωσ ωρασ ενατησ
45The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn down the middle.
45και εσκοτισθη ο ηλιοσ και εσχισθη το καταπετασμα του ναου μεσον
46Then Jesus called out in a loud voice, “Father, into Your hands I commit My Spirit.” And when He had said this, He breathed His last.
46και φωνησασ φωνη μεγαλη ο ιησουσ ειπεν πατερ εισ χειρασ σου παραθησομαι το πνευμα μου και ταυτα ειπων εξεπνευσεν
47When the centurion saw what had happened, he gave glory to God, saying, “Surely this was a righteous man.”
47ιδων δε ο εκατονταρχοσ το γενομενον εδοξασεν τον θεον λεγων οντωσ ο ανθρωποσ ουτοσ δικαιοσ ην
48And when all the people who had gathered for this spectacle saw what had happened, they returned home beating their breasts.
48και παντεσ οι συμπαραγενομενοι οχλοι επι την θεωριαν ταυτην θεωρουντεσ τα γενομενα τυπτοντεσ εαυτων τα στηθη υπεστρεφον
49But all those who knew Jesus, including the women who had followed Him from Galilee, stood at a distance watching these things.
49ειστηκεισαν δε παντεσ οι γνωστοι αυτου μακροθεν και γυναικεσ αι συνακολουθησασαι αυτω απο τησ γαλιλαιασ ορωσαι ταυτα
50Now there was a Council member named Joseph, a good and righteous man,
50και ιδου ανηρ ονοματι ιωσηφ βουλευτησ υπαρχων ανηρ αγαθοσ και δικαιοσ
51who had not consented to their decision or action. He was from the Judean town of Arimathea, and was waiting for the kingdom of God.
51ουτοσ ουκ ην συγκατατεθειμενοσ τη βουλη και τη πραξει αυτων απο αριμαθαιασ πολεωσ των ιουδαιων οσ και προσεδεχετο και αυτοσ την βασιλειαν του θεου
52He went to Pilate to ask for the body of Jesus.
52ουτοσ προσελθων τω πιλατω ητησατο το σωμα του ιησου
53Then he took it down, wrapped it in a linen cloth, and placed it in a tomb cut into the rock, where no one had yet been laid.
53και καθελων αυτο ενετυλιξεν αυτο σινδονι και εθηκεν αυτο εν μνηματι λαξευτω ου ουκ ην ουδεπω ουδεισ κειμενοσ
54It was Preparation Day, and the Sabbath was beginning.
54και ημερα ην παρασκευη σαββατον επεφωσκεν
55The women who had come with Jesus from Galilee followed, and they saw the tomb and how His body was placed.
55κατακολουθησασαι δε γυναικεσ αιτινεσ ησαν συνεληλυθυιαι αυτω εκ τησ γαλιλαιασ εθεασαντο το μνημειον και ωσ ετεθη το σωμα αυτου
56Then they returned to prepare spices and perfumes. And they rested on the Sabbath, according to the commandment.
56υποστρεψασαι δε ητοιμασαν αρωματα και μυρα και το μεν σαββατον ησυχασαν κατα την εντολην
