Mark 15 - Israeli Authorized Version

¹ And straightway in the morning the chief kohanim held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Y'shuw`a, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.

² And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said unto him, Thou sayest it.

³ And the chief kohanim accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.

⁴ And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against thee.

⁵ But Y'shuw`a yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.

⁶ Now at that Feast he released unto them one prisoner, whomsoever they desired.

⁷ And there was one named Bar-Abba, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.

⁸ And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto them.

⁹ But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews?

¹⁰ For he knew that the chief kohanim had delivered him for envy.

¹¹ But the chief kohanim moved the people, that he should rather release Bar-Abba unto them.

¹² And Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will ye then that I shall do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews?

¹³ And they cried out again, Crucify him.

¹⁴ Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.

¹⁵ And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Bar-Abba unto them, and delivered Y'shuw`a, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.

¹⁶ And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and they call together the whole band.

¹⁷ And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head,

¹⁸ And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!

¹⁹ And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees payed homage to him.

²⁰ And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.

²¹ And they compel one Shimon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his execution stake.

²² And they bring him unto the place Gulgolta, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull.

²³ And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not.

²⁴ And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.

²⁵ And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.

²⁶ And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

²⁷ And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.

²⁸ And the Scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors.

²⁹ And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the Temple, and buildest it in three days,

³⁰ Save thyself, and come down from the execution stake.

³¹ Likewise also the chief kohanim mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.

³² Let Moshiach the King of Yisrael descend now from the execution stake, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him.

³³ And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.

³⁴ And at the ninth hour Y'shuw`a cried with a loud voice, saying, Elohi, Elohi, lmah shvaktani? which is, being interpreted, My Elohim, my Elohim, why hast thou forsaken me?

³⁵ And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calleth Eliyahu.

³⁶ And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Eliyahu will come to take him down.

³⁷ And Y'shuw`a cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.

³⁸ And the veil of the Temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.

³⁹ And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of Elohim.

⁴⁰ There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Miryam Magdala, and Miryam the mother of Yaakov the less and of Yosi, and Shlomit;

⁴¹ (Who also, when he was in Galil, followed him, and ministered unto him;) and many other women which came up with him unto Yerushalayim.

⁴² And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the Sabbath,

⁴³ Yosef of Ramatayim, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the Kingdom of Elohim, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Y'shuw`a.

⁴⁴ And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead.

⁴⁵ And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Yosef.

⁴⁶ And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre.

⁴⁷ And Miryam Magdala and Miryam the mother of Yosi beheld where he was laid.
