John 19

1 Christ is scourged, crowned with thorns, and beaten. 4 Pilate is desirous to release him, but being overcome with the outrage of the Jews, he delivered him to be crucified. 23 They cast lots for his garments. 26 He commendeth his mother to John. 28 He dieth. 31 His side is pierced. 38 He is buried by Joseph and Nicodemus.

 19:1 ¶ Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged [him].

 19:2 And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put [it] on his head, and they put on him a purple robe,

 19:3 And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands.

 19:4 Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith to them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in him.

 19:5 Then Jesus came forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And [Pilate] saith to them, Behold the man!

 19:6 When therefore the chief priests and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify [him], crucify [him]. Pilate saith to them, Take ye him, and crucify [him]: for I find no fault in him.

 19:7 The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.

 19:8 ¶ When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;

 19:9 And went again into the judgment-hall, and saith to Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.

 19:10 Then saith Pilate to him, Speakest thou not to me? knowest thou not, that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?

 19:11 Jesus answered, Thou couldst have no power against me; except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me to thee hath the greater sin.

 19:12 And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Cesar's friend. Whoever maketh himself a king, speaketh against Cesar.

 19:13 ¶ When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down on the judgment-seat, in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.

 19:14 And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith to the Jews, Behold your King!

 19:15 But they cried out, Away with [him], away with [him], crucify him. Pilate saith to them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Cesar.

 19:16 Then therefore he delivered him to them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led [him] away.

 19:17 And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called [the place] of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew, Golgotha:

 19:18 Where they crucified him, and two others with him, on each side one, and Jesus in the midst.

 19:19 ¶ And Pilate wrote a title, and put [it] on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.

 19:20 Many of the Jews then read this title: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, [and] Latin.

 19:21 Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews.

 19:22 Pilate answered, What I have written, I have written.

 19:23 ¶ Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also [his] coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.

 19:24 They said therefore among themselves, 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 raiment among them, and for my vesture they cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.

 19:25 ¶ Now there stood by the cross of Jesus, his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the [wife] of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.

 19:26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith to his mother, Woman, behold thy son!

 19:27 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her to his own [home].

 19:28 ¶ After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.

 19:29 Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put [it] upon hyssop, and put [it] to his mouth.

 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and expired.

 19:31 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath, (for that sabbath was a great day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and [that] they might be taken away.

 19:32 Then came the soldiers, and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who was crucified with him.

 19:33 But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they broke not his legs:

 19:34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came out blood and water.

 19:35 And he that saw [it], testified, and his testimony is true: and he knoweth that he speaketh truth, that ye may believe.

 19:36 For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.

 19:37 And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.

 19:38 ¶ And after this, Joseph of Arimathea (being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews) besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave [him] leave. He came therefore and took the body of Jesus.

 19:39 And there came also Nicodemus (who at the first came to Jesus by night) and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pound [weight].

 19:40 Then they took the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen cloths, with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.

 19:41 Now in the place where he was crucified, there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulcher, in which was never man yet laid.

 19:42 There they laid Jesus therefore, because of the Jews' preparation-[day], for the sepulcher was nigh at hand.
