MATTHEW
Matthew 27:29-58
29 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band.
30 And they stripped him, and put on him a purple robe.
31 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 they mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
32 And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head.
33 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.
34 And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name; him they compelled to bear his cross.
35 And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, (that is to say, a place of burial,)
36 They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall; and when he had tasted the vinegar, he would not drink.
37 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 for my vesture they did cast lots.
38 And sitting down they watched him there.
39 And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross, and the writing was,
40 JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS, in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew.
41 And the chief priests said unto Pilate, It should be written and set up over his head, his accusation, This is he that said he was Jesus, the King of the Jews.
42 But Pilate answered and said, What I have written, I have written; let it alone.
43 Then were there two thieves crucified with him; one on the right hand, and another on the left.
44 And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads, and saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it again in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God come down from the cross.
45 Likewise also the chief priests mocking with the Scribes and elders, said, 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.
46 He trusted in God; let him deliver him now; if he will save him, let him save him; for he said, I am the Son of God.
47 One of the thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth. But the other rebuked him, saying, Dost thou not fear God, seeing thou art under the same condemnation; and this man is just, and hath not sinned; and he cried unto the Lord that he would save him.
48 And the Lord said unto him, This day thou shalt be with me in Paradise.
49 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.
50 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?)
51 Some of them that stood there, when they heard him, said, This man calleth for Elias.
52 And straightway one of them ran, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
53 The rest said, Let him be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.
54 Jesus when he had cried again with a loud voice, saying, Father, it is finished, thy will is done, yielded up the ghost.
55 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;
56 And the graves were opened; and the bodies of the saints which slept, arose, who were many.
57 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, went unto the holy city, and appeared unto many.
58 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, heard the earth quake, and saw those things which were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
MARK
Mark 15:19-44
19 And, the soldiers led him away into the hall called Praetorium; and they called together the whole band;
20 And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns and put it upon his head;
21 And began to salute him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews.
22 And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.
23 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.
24 And they compelled one Simon, a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.
25 And they bring him unto the place called Golgotha, which is, (being interpreted,) The place of a burial.
26 And they gave him to drink, vinegar mingled with gall; and when he had tasted the vinegar, he would not drink.
27 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.
28 And it was the third hour, when they crucified him.
29 And Pilate wrote his accusation and put it upon the cross, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
30 There were certain of the chief priests who stood by, that said unto Pilate, Write, that he said, I am the King of the Jews.
31 But Pilate said unto them, What I have written, I have written.
32 And with him they crucified two thieves, the one on his right hand, the other on his left.
33 And the scripture was fulfilled which said, And he was numbered with the transgressors.
34 And they who passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou who destroyest the temple and buildest it in three days, save thyself, and come down from the cross.
35 Likewise also, the chief priests mocking, said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.
36 Let Christ, the King of Israel, descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe.
37 And one of them who was crucified with him, reviled him also, saying, If thou art the Christ, save thyself and us.
38 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land, until the ninth hour.
39 And at the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
40 And some of them who stood by, when they heard him, said, Behold, he calleth Elias.
41 And one ran and filled a sponge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed and gave him to drink; others spake, saying, Let him alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take him down.
42 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.
43 And the veil of the temple was rent in twain, from the top to the bottom.
44 And when the centurion who stood over against him, saw that he so cried out and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly, this man is the Son of God.
LUKE
Luke 23:26-50
26 And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear it after Jesus.
27 And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, who also bewailed and lamented him.
28 But Jesus turned unto them and said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
29 For behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs which never bare, and the paps which never gave suck.
30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.
31 And if these things are done in the green tree, what shall be done in the dry tree?
32 This he spake, signifying the scattering of Israel, and the desolation of the heathen, or in other words, the Gentiles.
33 And there were also two others, malefactors, led with him to be put to death.
34 And when they were come to the place which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors; one on the right hand, and the other on the left.
35 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. (Meaning the soldiers who crucified him,) and they parted his raiment and cast lots.
36 And the people stood, beholding, and the rulers also with them, derided, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be the Christ, the chosen of God.
37 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar,
38 And saying, If thou be the King of the Jews, save thyself.
39 And a superscription also was written over him, in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
40 And one of the malefactors who was crucified with him, railed on him, saying, If thou be the Christ, save thyself and us.
41 But the other answering, rebuked him, saying, Dost thou not fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?
42 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this man hath done nothing amiss.
43 And he said to Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.
44 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee; Today shalt thou be with me in Paradise.
45 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.
46 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.
47 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit. And having said thus, he gave up the ghost.
48 Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.
49 And all the people who came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.
50 And all his acquaintance, and women who followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.
JOHN
John 19:1-37
1 Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.
2 And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe,
3 And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands.
4 Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith unto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in him.
5 Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!
6 When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him; for I find no fault in him.
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.
8 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;
9 And went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.
10 Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? Knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?
11 Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power against me, except it were given thee from above; therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin.
12 And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him; but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar’s friend; whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.
13 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.
14 And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour; and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King!
15 But they 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 Caesar.
16 Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.
17 And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a burial; which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha;
18 Where they crucified him, and two others with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.
19 And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.
20 This title then read many of the Jews; for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city; and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin.
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.
22 Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.
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.
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 did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.
25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary, the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.
26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!
27 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.
28 After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.
29 Now there was a vessel full of vinegar, mingled with gall, and they filled a sponge with it, and put upon hyssop, and put to his mouth.
30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished; and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
31 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath day, (for that Sabbath day was a high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
32 Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him.
33 But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs;
34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.
35 And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true; and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe.
36 For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.
37 And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.
