The Gospel of Mark 15

15 And immediately in the morning, having made counsel, the chief priests with the elders and scribes and the entire Sanhedrin, having bound Jesus, led him away and handed him over to Pilate. 2 And Pilate questioned him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” But he, answering him, says, “You say it.” 3 And the chief priests were accusing him of many things. 4 Now Pilate again was questioning him, saying, “Do you not answer anything? See how many things they are accusing you!” 5 But Jesus no longer answered anything, so as to amaze Pilate.

6 Now at the festival, he was releasing to them one prisoner whom they were requesting. 7 Now there was the one called Barabbas, having been bound with the rebels, who had committed murder in the insurrection. 8 And having come up, the crowd began to request just as he was doing for them. 9 And Pilate answered them, saying, “Do you want that I would release to you the King of the Jews?” 10 For he knew that the chief priests had handed him over because of envy. 11 But the chief priests stirred up the crowd so that he would release Barabbas to them instead. 12 And Pilate, answering again, was saying to them, “What therefore should I do with the one you call the King of the Jews?” 13 But they cried out again, “Crucify him!” 14 But Pilate was saying to them, “What wrong has he done?” But they cried out even more, “Crucify him.” 15 Now Pilate, wanting to do what was pleasing to the crowd, released Barabbas to them and handed Jesus over, having flogged him, so that he might be crucified.

16 Now the soldiers led him inside the courtyard (that is, the Praetorium) and call together the whole cohort 17 and put on him a purple robe and place on him, having woven it together, a crown of thorns, 18 and they began to greet him: “Rejoice, King of the Jews!” 19 And they were striking his head with a reed and spitting on him, and bending the knee, they were bowing down to him. 20 And when they had mocked him, they took the purple robe off him and put his robes on him and led him out so that they might crucify him. 21 And they pressed into service a certain passerby, Simon, a Cyrenean (the father of Alexander and Rufus), coming from the country, so that he might carry his cross.

22 And they bring him to the place Golgotha, which is translated, “Place of a Skull.” 23 And they were giving to him wine having been mixed with myrrh, but he did not receive it. 24 And having crucified him, also they divide his garments, casting a lot for them, who would take what. 25 Now it was the third hour, and they crucified him. 26 And this was the inscription of his charge, having been written: “The King of the Jews.” 27 And they crucify two robbers with him, one at his right and one at his left. 28 [fn] [And the scripture was fulfilled that says, ‘And he was counted with lawless ones.’] 29 And the ones passing by were blaspheming him, wagging their heads and saying, “Aha! The one destroying the temple and rebuilding it in three days, 30 save yourself, having come down from the cross!” 31 Likewise also the chief priests, mocking him to each other with the scribes, were saying, “He saved others; he is not able to save himself. 32 Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross so that we might see and might believe,” and the ones having been crucified with him were reviling him.

33 And the sixth hour having come, darkness happened over the whole land until the ninth hour. 34 And at the ninth hour, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which is translated, “My God, my God, why did you forsake me?” 35 And some of the ones having stood by, having heard it, were saying, “Behold, he calls Elijah.” 36 And someone, having run and having filled a sponge with vinegar, having put it around a reed, was giving it to him to drink, saying, “Leave him! Let us see if Elijah comes to take him down!” 37 And Jesus, having let out a loud voice, expired. 38 And the curtain of the temple was split in two from top to bottom. 39 Now the centurion having stood by opposite him, having seen that he expired in this way, said, “Truly this man was a Son of God.” 40 Now there were also women watching from a distance, among whom were both Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses and Salome, 41 who, when he was in Galilee, were following him and serving him, and many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem.

42 And evening already having come, because it was the Day of Preparation, that is, the day before the Sabbath, 43 Joseph, the one from Arimathea, a respected member of the council who also himself was waiting for the kingdom of God, having come, having dared, entered in to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 44 Now Pilate was wondering if he had already died, and having called the centurion, he questioned him, whether he had already died. 45 And having learned from the centurion, he gave the corpse to Joseph. 46 And having bought a linen cloth, having taken him down, he wrapped him in the linen cloth and put him in a tomb, which was having been cut from rock. And he rolled a stone against the door of the tomb. 47 Now Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses were watching where he had been put.

Some ancient manuscripts include verse 28 (compare Luke 22:37).
