Indeed Herod and Pontius Pilate met together with the Gentiles and the people of Israel in this city to conspire against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed.

In fact, Herod and Pontius Pilate met with the Gentiles in this city. They also met with the people of Israel. All of them made plans against your holy servant Jesus. He is the one you anointed.

and they bound him, and led him away, and delivered him up to Pilate the governor.

while thou stretchest forth thy hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of thy holy Servant Jesus.

saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.

And straightway, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.Now he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he; take him, and lead him away safely.And when he was come, straightway he came to him, and saith, Rabbi; and kissed him.And they laid hands on him, and took him.But a certain one of them that stood by drew his sword, and smote the servant of the high priest, and struck off his ear.And Jesus answered and said unto them, Are ye come out, as against a robber, with swords and staves to seize me?I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me not: but this is done that the scriptures might be fulfilled.And they all left him, and fled.And a certain young man followed with him, having a linen cloth cast about him, over his naked body: and they lay hold on him;but he left the linen cloth, and fled naked.And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and there come together with him all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.And Peter had followed him afar off, even within, into the court of the high priest; and he was sitting with the officers, and warming himself in the light of the fire.Now the chief priests and the whole council sought witness against Jesus to put him to death; and found it not.For many bare false witness against him, and their witness agreed not together.And there stood up certain, and bare false witness against him, saying,We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.And not even so did their witness agree together.And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and saith unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.And the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What further need have we of witnesses?Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they all condemned him to be worthy of death.And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say unto him, Prophesy: and the officers received him with blows of their hands.

Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests and scribes; and they shall condemn him to death,and shall deliver him unto the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify: and the third day he shall be raised up.

But what think ye? A man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to- day in the vineyard.

saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests and the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him unto the Gentiles:

And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and the power of the Most High shall overshadow thee: wherefore also the holy thing which is begotten shall be called the Son of God.

He came unto his own, and they that were his own received him not.

The Spirit of the Lord Jehovah is upon me; because Jehovah hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the broken- hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;

howbeit one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and straightway there came out blood and water.

Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death; for they feared the people.And Satan entered into Judas who was called Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.And he went away, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might deliver him unto them.And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.And he consented, and sought opportunity to deliver him unto them in the absence of the multitude.

and saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself: if thou art the Son of God, come down from the cross.In like manner also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,He saved others; himself he cannot save. He is the King of Israel; let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe on him.He trusteth on God; let him deliver him now, if he desireth him: for he said, I am the Son of God.

Now Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest.And when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.Then saith Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee?And he gave him no answer, not even to one word: insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly.Now at the feast the governor was wont to release unto the multitude one prisoner, whom they would.And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?For he knew that for envy they had delivered him up.And while he was sitting on the judgment- seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that righteous man; for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes that they should ask for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.But the governor answered and said unto them, Which of the two will ye that I release unto you? And they said, Barabbas.Pilate saith unto them, What then shall I do unto Jesus who is called Christ? They all say, Let him be crucified.And he said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out exceedingly, saying, Let him be crucified.So when Pilate saw that he prevailed nothing, but rather that a tumult was arising, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man; see ye to it.And all the people answered and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.Then released he unto them Barabbas; but Jesus he scourged and delivered to be crucified.Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the Prætorium, and gathered unto him the whole band.And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.And they platted a crown of thorns and put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand; and they kneeled down before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!And they spat upon him, and took the reed and smote him on the head.And when they had mocked him, they took off from him the robe, and put on him his garments, and led him away to crucify him.And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to go with them, that he might bear his cross.And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, The place of a skull,they gave him wine to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted it, he would not drink.And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments among them, casting lots;and they sat and watched him there.

Then were gathered together the chief priests, and the elders of the people, unto the court of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas;and they took counsel together that they might take Jesus by subtlety, and kill him.

So I fed the flock of slaughter, verily the poor of the flock. And I took unto me two staves; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I fed the flock.And I cut off the three shepherds in one month; for my soul was weary of them, and their soul also loathed me.

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, Because he anointed me to preach good tidings to the poor: He hath sent me to proclaim release to the captives, And recovering of sight to the blind, To set at liberty them that are bruised,

Yet I have set my king Upon my holy hill of Zion.

Now the chief priests and the whole council sought false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death;and they found it not, though many false witnesses came. But afterward came two,and said, This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.And the high priest stood up, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou art the Christ, the Son of God.Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Henceforth ye shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.Then the high priest rent his garments, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy: what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard the blasphemy:what think ye? They answered and said, He is worthy of death.Then did they spit in his face and buffet him: and some smote him with the palms of their hands,saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ: who is he that struck thee?

The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Servant Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied before the face of Pilate, when he had determined to release him.But ye denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a murderer to be granted unto you,

In like manner also the chief priests mocking him among themselves with the scribes said, He saved others; himself he cannot save.

The high priest therefore asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his teaching.Jesus answered him, I have spoken openly to the world; I ever taught in synagogues, and in the temple, where all the Jews come together; and in secret spake I nothing.Why askest thou me? ask them that have heard me, what I spake unto them: behold, these know the things which I said.And when he had said this, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus with his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so?Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me?Annas therefore sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.

say ye of him, whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?

When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Kidron, where was a garden, into which he entered, himself and his disciples.Now Judas also, who betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus oft- times resorted thither with his disciples.Judas then, having received the band of soldiers, and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were coming upon him, went forth, and saith unto them, Whom seek ye?They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, who betrayed him, was standing with them.When therefore he said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground.Again therefore he asked them, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.Jesus answered, I told you that I am he; if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way:that the word might be fulfilled which he spake, Of those whom thou hast given me I lost not one.Simon Peter therefore having a sword drew it, and struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. Now the servant’s name was Malchus.Jesus therefore said unto Peter, Put up the sword into the sheath: the cup which the Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?So the band and the chief captain, and the officers of the Jews, seized Jesus and bound him,and led him to Annas first; for he was father in law to Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.Now Caiaphas was he that gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that killeth the prophets, and stoneth them that are sent unto her! how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!

even Jesus of Nazareth, how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

What is man, that he should be clean? And he that is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?

Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.

Thus saith Jehovah, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One, to him whom man despiseth, to him whom the nation abhorreth, to a servant of rulers: Kings shall see and arise; princes, and they shall worship; because of Jehovah that is faithful, even the Holy One of Israel, who hath chosen thee.

He was despised, and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and as one from whom men hide their face he was despised; and we esteemed him not.

And straightway in the morning the chief priests with the elders and scribes, and the whole council, held a consultation, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate.And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering saith unto him, Thou sayest.And the chief priests accused him of many things.And Pilate again asked him, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they accuse thee of.But Jesus no more answered anything; insomuch that Pilate marvelled.Now at the feast he used to release unto them one prisoner, whom they asked of him.And there was one called Barabbas, lying bound with them that had made insurrection, men who in the insurrection had committed murder.And the multitude went up and began to ask him to do as he was wont to do unto them.And Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews?For he perceived that for envy the chief priests had delivered him up.But the chief priests stirred up the multitude, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them.And Pilate again answered and said unto them, What then shall I do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews?And they cried out again, Crucify him.And Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out exceedingly, Crucify him.And Pilate, wishing to content the multitude, released unto them Barabbas, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.And the soldiers led him away within the court, which is the Prætorium; and they call together the whole band.And they clothe him with purple, and platting a crown of thorns, they put it on him;and they began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!And they smote his head with a reed, and spat upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.And when they had mocked him, they took off from him the purple, and put on him his garments. And they lead him out to crucify him.And they compel one passing by, Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to go with them, that he might bear his cross.And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull.And they offered him wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not.And they crucify him, and part his garments among them, casting lots upon them, what each should take.And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS.And with him they crucify two robbers; one on his right hand, and one on his left.

The kings of the earth set themselves, And the rulers take counsel together, Against Jehovah, and against his anointed, saying,

Now after two days was the feast of the passover and the unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him with subtlety, and kill him:for they said, Not during the feast, lest haply there shall be a tumult of the people.

Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness: Therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee With the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

Because thou wilt not leave my soul unto Hades, Neither wilt thou give thy Holy One to see corruption.

How then can man be just with God? Or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?

They lead Jesus therefore from Caiaphas into the Prætorium: and it was early; and they themselves entered not into the Prætorium, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover.Pilate therefore went out unto them, and saith, What accusation bring ye against this man?They answered and said unto him, If this man were not an evil- doer, we should not have delivered him up unto thee.Pilate therefore said unto them, Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law. The Jews said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying by what manner of death he should die.Pilate therefore entered again into the Prætorium, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews?Jesus answered, Sayest thou this of thyself, or did others tell it thee concerning me?Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end have I been born, and to this end am I come into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find no crime in him.But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?They cried out therefore again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and arrayed him in a purple garment;and they came unto him, and said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they struck him with their hands.And Pilate went out again, and saith unto them, Behold, I bring him out to you, that ye may know that I find no crime in him.Jesus therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold, the man!When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him! Pilate saith unto them, Take him yourselves, and crucify him: for I find no crime in him.The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by that law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.When Pilate therefore heard this saying, he was the more afraid;and he entered into the Prætorium again, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.Pilate therefore saith unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to release thee, and have power to crucify thee?Jesus answered him, Thou wouldest have no power against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath greater sin.Upon this Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou release this man, thou art not Cæsar’s friend: every one that maketh himself a king speaketh against Cæsar.When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Jesus out, and sat down on the judgment- seat at a place called The Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha.Now it was the Preparation of the passover: it was about the sixth hour. And he saith unto the Jews, Behold, your King!They therefore cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him! Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Cæsar.Then therefore he delivered him unto them to be crucified.They took Jesus therefore: and he went out, bearing the cross for himself, unto the place called The place of a skull, which is called in Hebrew Golgotha:where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.And Pilate wrote a title also, and put it on the cross. And there was written, JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.This title therefore read many of the Jews, for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city; and it was written in Hebrew, and in Latin, and in Greek.The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but, that he said, I am King of the Jews.Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.The soldiers therefore, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also the coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.They said therefore one to another, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my garments among them, And upon my vesture did they cast lots.

And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; it may be they will reverence him.But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned one with another, saying, This is the heir; let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.And they cast him forth out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do unto them?He will come and destroy these husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others. And when they heard it, they said, God forbid.But he looked upon them, and said, What then is this that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner?Every one that falleth on that stone shall be broken to pieces; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust.And the scribes and the chief priests sought to lay hands on him in that very hour; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he spake this parable against them.

And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and beat him.And they blindfolded him, and asked him, saying, Prophesy: who is he that struck thee?And many other things spake they against him, reviling him.And as soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people was gathered together, both chief priests and scribes; and they led him away into their council, saying,If thou art the Christ, tell us. But he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:and if I ask you, ye will not answer.But from henceforth shall the Son of man be seated at the right hand of the power of God.And they all said, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.And they said, What further need have we of witness? for we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.And the whole company of them rose up, and brought him before Pilate.And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Cæsar, and saying that he himself is Christ a king.And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest.And Pilate said unto the chief priests and the multitudes, I find no fault in this man.But they were the more urgent, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Judæa, and beginning from Galilee even unto this place.

And when he knew that he was of Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him unto Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem in these days.Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he was of a long time desirous to see him, because he had heard concerning him; and he hoped to see some miracle done by him.And he questioned him in many words; but he answered him nothing.And the chief priests and the scribes stood, vehemently accusing him.And Herod with his soldiers set him at nought, and mocked him, and arraying him in gorgeous apparel sent him back to Pilate.And Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day: for before they were at enmity between themselves.And Pilate called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,and said unto them, Ye brought unto me this man, as one that perverteth the people: and behold, I, having examined him before you, found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him:no, nor yet Herod: for he sent him back unto us; and behold, nothing worthy of death hath been done by him.I will therefore chastise him, and release him.

While he yet spake, behold, a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them; and he drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?And when they that were about him saw what would follow, they said, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?And a certain one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and struck off his right ear.But Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye them thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.And Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and elders, that were come against him, Are ye come out, as against a robber, with swords and staves?

For such a high priest became us, holy, guileless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;

Now when they were departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I tell thee: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.And he arose and took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt;and was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt did I call my son.Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the Wise- men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the male children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the borders thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had exactly learned of the Wise- men.

And he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written through the prophets shall be accomplished unto the Son of man.For he shall be delivered up unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and shamefully treated, and spit upon:and they shall scourge and kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.

In that very hour there came certain Pharisees, saying to him, Get thee out, and go hence: for Herod would fain kill thee.And he said unto them, Go and say to that fox, Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures to- day and to- morrow, and the third day I am perfected.Nevertheless I must go on my way to- day and to- morrow and the day following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem.

At that season Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus,
