Da morgenen kom, tok alle overprestene og folkets eldste råd mot Jesus for å få ham dømt til døden.

When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:

De bandt ham, førte ham bort og overleverte ham til Pontius Pilatus, landshøvdingen.

And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.

Da Judas, han som hadde forrådt ham, så at Jesus var dømt, angret han seg og tok de tretti sølvpengene tilbake til overprestene og de eldste.

Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,

Han sa: Jeg har syndet ved å forråde uskyldig blod. Men de svarte: Hva angår det oss? Det er din sak.

Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.

Da kastet han sølvpengene inn i tempelet, gikk sin vei og hengte seg.

And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.

Overprestene tok pengene og sa: Det er ikke tillatt å legge dem i tempelkisten, for det er blodpenger.

And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.

De rådslo og kjøpte pottemakerens åker for pengene, for å begrave fremmede der.

And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.

Derfor kalles den åkeren for Blodåkeren den dag i dag.

Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day.

Da ble det oppfylt som var talt ved profeten Jeremia, som sier: De tok de tretti sølvpengene, prisen for den som var vurdert, han som Israels barn satte en pris på.

Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;

Og de ga dem for pottemakerens åker, som Herren hadde pålagt meg.

And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.

Jesus stod foran landshøvdingen, og landshøvdingen spurte ham: Er du jødenes konge? Jesus svarte: Du sier det.

And 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.

Da han ble anklaget av overprestene og de eldste, svarte han ingenting.

And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.

Pilatus sa da til ham: Hører du ikke alt det de vitner mot deg?

Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee?

Men Jesus svarte ham ikke på et eneste ord, slik at landshøvdingen undret seg svært.

And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly.

Hver høytid pleide landshøvdingen å gi en fange fri for folket, den de ønsket.

Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would.

De hadde da en beryktet fange, som het Barabbas.

And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.

Da de var samlet, spurte Pilatus dem: Hvem vil dere at jeg skal gi dere fri, Barabbas eller Jesus som kalles Kristus?

Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ?

For han visste at de hadde utlevert Jesus av misunnelse.

For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.

Da han satt på dommersetet, sendte hans kone ham en beskjed, og sa: Ha ingenting med denne rettferdige mannen å gjøre; for jeg har lidd mye i dag i en drøm på grunn av ham.

When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.

Men overprestene og de eldste overtalte folkemengden til å be om Barabbas og få Jesus ødelagt.

But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.

Landshøvdingen svarte og sa til dem: Hvem av de to vil dere at jeg skal gi dere fri? De sa: Barabbas.

The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas.

Pilatus sa til dem: Hva skal jeg da gjøre med Jesus som kalles Kristus? De sa alle: La ham bli korsfestet.

Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.

Landshøvdingen sa: Hva ondt har han gjort? Men de ropte enda høyere, og sa: La ham bli korsfestet.

And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.

Da Pilatus så at ingenting hjalp, men at han snarere ble voldelig, tok han vann, vasket hendene foran folkemengden, og sa: Jeg er uskyldig i denne rettferdige mannens blod; dette får dere ta ansvaret for.

When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.

Da svarte hele folket: Hans blod må komme over oss og våre barn.

Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.

Så ga han dem Barabbas fri, og etter å ha pisket Jesus, overga han ham til å bli korsfestet.

Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.

Soldatene til landshøvdingen tok da Jesus med seg inn i borgen og samlet hele gruppen av soldater rundt ham.

Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.

De kledde av ham og la en skarlagen rød kappe på ham.

And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.

De flettet en krone av torner og satte den på hans hode, og ga ham en stokk i høyre hånd. De knelte foran ham, hånte ham og sa: Hill, du jødenes konge!

And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!

De spyttet på ham, tok stokken og slo ham på hodet.

And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head.

Etter å ha hånet ham, tok de kappen av ham og kledde ham i hans egne klær og førte ham bort for å korsfeste ham.

And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.

Da de gikk ut, så de en mann fra Kyrene som het Simon, ham tvang de til å bære hans kors.

And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross.

Da de kom til et sted som heter Golgata, som betyr Hodeskallestedet,

And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,

ga de ham eddik blandet med galle å drikke; men da han smakte det, ville han ikke drikke.

They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.

De korsfestet ham, og delte klærne hans mellom seg ved å kaste lodd, slik at profetens ord skulle oppfylles: De delte mine klær mellom seg og kastet lodd om mine klesplagg.

And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.

Deretter satte de seg ned for å vokte ham.

And sitting down they watched him there;

Over hodet hans satte de opp anklagen mot ham: Dette er Jesus, jødenes konge.

And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

Sammen med ham korsfestet de også to røvere, en på høyre side og en på venstre.

Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.

De som gikk forbi, spottet ham og ristet på hodet,

And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,

og sa: Du som bryter ned tempelet og bygger det opp igjen på tre dager, frels deg selv! Hvis du er Guds Sønn, kom ned fra korset!

And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.

Slik hånte også overprestene ham sammen med de skriftlærde og de eldste.

Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,

Han frelste andre, men seg selv kan han ikke frelse. Hvis han er Israels konge, så la ham nå stige ned fra korset, så skal vi tro på ham.

He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.

Han satte sin lit til Gud; la Gud redde ham nå, hvis han har ham kjær, for han sa: Jeg er Guds Sønn.

He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.

Også røverne som var korsfestet med ham, hånte ham på samme måte.

The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.

Fra den sjette time var det mørke over hele landet frem til den niende time.

Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.

Omkring den niende time ropte Jesus med høy røst: Eli, Eli, lama sabaktani? Det betyr: Min Gud, min Gud, hvorfor har du forlatt meg?

And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

Noen av dem som sto der, sa da de hørte det: Han roper på Elias.

Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.

Straks løp en av dem bort, tok en svamp, fylte den med eddik, satte den på en stang og ga ham å drikke.

And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.

De andre sa: Vent, la oss se om Elias kommer for å redde ham.

The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.

Da ropte Jesus igjen med høy røst og oppgav ånden.

Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.

Straks revnet forhenget i tempelet i to, fra øverst til nederst; jorden skalv, og klippene sprakk.

And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;

Gravene åpnet seg, og mange legemer av de hellige som hadde sovet, stod opp.

And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,

De kom ut av gravene etter Jesu oppstandelse, gikk inn i den hellige byen og viste seg for mange.

And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.

Da høvedsmannen og de som var med ham og holdt vakt over Jesus, så jordskjelvet og alt som skjedde, ble de svært forskrekket og sa: Sannelig, dette var Guds Sønn.

Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.

Mange kvinner som hadde fulgt Jesus fra Galilea for å tjene ham, stod langt borte og så på.

And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:

Blant dem var Maria Magdalena, Maria mor til Jakob og Joses, og moren til Sebedeus' sønner.

Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's children.

Da det ble kveld, kom en rik mann fra Arimatea, ved navn Josef, som også var en disippel av Jesus.

When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple:

Han gikk til Pilatus og ba om å få Jesu legeme, og Pilatus beordret at kroppen skulle gis til ham.

He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.

Josef tok Jesu legeme, svøpte det i et rent, fint linklede,

And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,

og la det i sin nye grav, som han hadde hugget ut i klippen; han rullet en stor stein foran inngangen til graven og gikk bort.

And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.

Maria Magdalena og den andre Maria var der og satt rett overfor graven.

And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.

Dagen etter forberedelsesdagen samlet overprestene og fariseerne seg hos Pilatus,

Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,

og sa: Herre, vi husker at denne bedrageren sa mens han ennå var i live: Etter tre dager skal jeg reise meg igjen.

Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.

Gi derfor befaling om at graven skal sikres til den tredje dagen, så ikke disiplene kommer om natten og stjeler ham og sier til folket: Han er stått opp fra de døde. Da vil den siste villfarelsen bli verre enn den første.

Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first.

Pilatus sa til dem: Her har dere vaktfolk; gå og vokt graven som best dere kan.

Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as ye can.

De gikk da og sikret graven ved å forsegle steinen og sette ut vakter.

So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch.
