The Good News According to Mark
15. fejezet
1. vers
Immediately in the morning the chief priests, with the elders, scribes, and the whole council, held a consultation, bound Jesus, carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate.
2. vers
Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered, “So you say.”
3. vers
The chief priests accused him of many things.
4. vers
Pilate again asked him, “Have you no answer? See how many things they testify against you!”
5. vers
But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate marveled.
6. vers
Now at the feast he used to release to them one prisoner, whomever they asked of him.
7. vers
There was one called Barabbas, bound with his fellow insurgents, men who in the insurrection had committed murder.
8. vers
The multitude, crying aloud, began to ask him to do as he always did for them.
9. vers
Pilate answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”
10. vers
For he perceived that for envy the chief priests had delivered him up.
11. vers
But the chief priests stirred up the multitude, that he should release Barabbas to them instead.
12. vers
Pilate again asked them, “What then should I do to him whom you call the King of the Jews?”
13. vers
They cried out again, “Crucify him!”
14. vers
Pilate said to them, “Why, what evil has he done?” But they cried out exceedingly, “Crucify him!”
15. vers
Pilate, wishing to please the multitude, released Barabbas to them, and handed over Jesus, when he had flogged him, to be crucified.
16. vers
The soldiers led him away within the court, which is the Praetorium; and they called together the whole cohort.
17. vers
They clothed him with purple; and weaving a crown of thorns, they put it on him.
18. vers
They began to salute him, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
19. vers
They struck his head with a reed and spat on him, and bowing their knees, did homage to him.
20. vers
When they had mocked him, they took the purple cloak off him, and put his own garments on him. They led him out to crucify him.
21. vers
They compelled one passing by, coming from the country, Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to go with them that he might bear his cross.
22. vers
They brought him to the place called Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, “The place of a skull.”
23. vers
They offered him wine mixed with myrrh to drink, but he didn’t take it.
24. vers
Crucifying him, they parted his garments among them, casting lots on them, what each should take.
25. vers
It was the third hour when they crucified him.
26. vers
The superscription of his accusation was written over him: “THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
27. vers
With him they crucified two robbers, one on his right hand, and one on his left.
28. vers
The Scripture was fulfilled which says, “He was counted with transgressors.”
29. vers
Those who passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads and saying, “Ha! You who destroy the temple and build it in three days,
30. vers
save yourself, and come down from the cross!”
31. vers
Likewise, also the chief priests mocking among themselves with the scribes said, “He saved others. He can’t save himself.
32. vers
Let the Christ, the King of Israel, now come down from the cross, that we may see and believe him.” Those who were crucified with him also insulted him.
33. vers
When the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.
34. vers
At the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is, being interpreted, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
35. vers
Some of those who stood by, when they heard it, said, “Behold, he is calling Elijah.”
36. vers
One ran, and filling a sponge full of vinegar, put it on a reed and gave it to him to drink, saying, “Let him be. Let’s see whether Elijah comes to take him down.”
37. vers
Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and gave up the spirit.
38. vers
The veil of the temple was torn in two from the top to the bottom.
39. vers
When the centurion, who stood by opposite him, saw that he cried out like this and breathed his last, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God!”
40. vers
There were also women watching from afar, among whom were both Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;
41. vers
who, when he was in Galilee, followed him and served him; and many other women who came up with him to Jerusalem.
42. vers
When evening had now come, because it was the Preparation Day, that is, the day before the Sabbath,
43. vers
Joseph of Arimathaea, a prominent council member who also himself was looking for God’s Kingdom, came. He boldly went in to Pilate, and asked for Jesus’ body.
44. vers
Pilate was surprised to hear that he was already dead; and summoning the centurion, he asked him whether he had been dead long.
45. vers
When he found out from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.
46. vers
He bought a linen cloth, and taking him down, wound him in the linen cloth and laid him in a tomb which had been cut out of a rock. He rolled a stone against the door of the tomb.
47. vers
Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses, saw where he was laid.
