Matthew 27

1 Christ is delivered bound to Pilate. 3 Judas hangeth himself. 19 Pilate, admonished of his wife, 24 washeth his hands: 26 and looseth Barabbas. 29 Christ is crowned with thorns, 34 crucified, 40 reviled, 50 dieth, and is buried: 66 his sepulchre is sealed, and watched.

 27:1 ¶ When 1161 the morning 4405 was come, 1096 z5637 all 3956 the x3588 chief priests 749 and 2532 elders 4245 of the x3588 people 2992 took 2983 z5627 counsel 4824 against 2596 Jesus 2424 to 5620 put y2289 z0 him y846 to death: 2289 z5658 x846

 27:2 And 2532 when they had bound 1210 z5660 him, 846 they led [him] away, 520 z5627 and 2532 delivered 3860 z5656 him 846 to Pontius 4194 Pilate 4091 the x3588 governor. 2232

 27:3 ¶ Then 5119 Judas, 2455 which y3588 had betrayed 3860 z5723 him, 846 when he saw 1492 z5631 that 3754 he was condemned, 2632 z5681 repented x3338 himself, y3338 z5679 and brought again 654 z5656 the x3588 thirty 5144 pieces of silver 694 to the x3588 chief priests 749 and 2532 elders, 4245

 27:4 Saying, 3004 z5723 I have sinned 264 z5627 in that I have betrayed 3860 z5631 the innocent 121 blood. 129 And 1161 they x3588 said, 2036 z5627 What 5101 [is that] to 4314 us? 2248 see 3700 z5695 thou 4771 [to that].

 27:5 And 2532 he cast down 4496 z5660 the x3588 pieces of silver 694 in 1722 the x3588 temple, 3485 and departed, 402 z5656 and 2532 went 565 z5631 and hanged x519 himself. y519 z5668

 27:6 And 1161 the x3588 chief priests 749 took 2983 z5631 the x3588 silver pieces, 694 and said, 2036 z5627 It is y1832 z0 not y3756 lawful 1832 z5748 x3756 for to put 906 z5629 them 846 into 1519 the x3588 treasury, 2878 because 1893 it is 2076 z5748 the price 5092 of blood. 129

 27:7 And 1161 they took 2983 z5631 counsel, 4824 and bought 59 z5656 with 1537 them 846 the x3588 potter's 2763 field, 68 to y1519 bury y5027 z0 strangers y3581 in. 5027 x1519 x3581

 27:8 Wherefore 1352 that 1565 field 68 was called, 2564 z5681 The field 68 of blood, 129 unto 2193 this day. 4594

 27:9 Then 5119 was fulfilled 4137 z5681 that x3588 which y3588 was spoken 4483 z5685 by 1223 Jeremiah 2408 the x3588 prophet, 4396 saying, 3004 z5723 And 2532 they took 2983 z5627 the x3588 thirty 5144 pieces of silver, 694 the x3588 price 5092 of him that was valued, 5091 z5772 whom 3739 they of 575 the children 5207 of Israel 2474 did value; 5091 z5668

 27:10 And 2532 gave 1325 z5656 them 846 for 1519 the x3588 potter's 2763 field, 68 as 2505 the Lord 2962 appointed 4929 z5656 me. 3427

 27:11 And 1161 Jesus 2424 stood 2476 z5627 before 1715 the x3588 governor: 2232 and 2532 the x3588 governor 2232 asked 1905 z5656 him, 846 saying, 3004 z5723 Art 1488 z5748 thou 4771 the x3588 King 935 of the x3588 Jews? 2453 And 1161 Jesus 2424 said 5346 z5713 unto him, 846 Thou 4771 sayest. 3004 z5719

 27:12 And 2532 when y1722 he 846 was accused 2723 z5745 of 5259 the x3588 chief priests 749 and 2532 elders, 4245 he answered 611 z5662 nothing. 3762

 27:13 Then 5119 said 3004 z5719 Pilate 4091 unto him, 846 Hearest x191 thou y191 z5719 not 3756 how many things 4214 they witness against 2649 z5719 thee? 4675

 27:14 And 2532 he answered 3756 611 z5662 him 846 to 4314 never 3761 a 1520 word; 4487 insomuch 5620 that the x3588 governor 2232 marveled 2296 z5721 greatly. 3029

 27:15 Now 1161 at 2596 [that] feast 1859 the x3588 governor 2232 was wont 1486 z5715 to release 630 z5721 unto the x3588 people 3793 a 1520 prisoner, 1198 whom 3739 they would. 2309 z5707

 27:16 And 1161 they had 2192 z5707 then 5119 a notable 1978 prisoner, 1198 called 3004 z5746 Barabbas. 912

 27:17 Therefore 3767 when they 846 were gathered together, 4863 z5772 Pilate 4091 said 2036 z5627 unto them, 846 Whom 5101 will x2309 ye y2309 z5719 that I release 630 z5661 unto you? 5213 Barabbas, 912 or 2228 Jesus 2424 which y3588 is called 3004 z5746 Christ? 5547

 27:18 For 1063 he knew 1492 z5715 that 3754 for 1223 envy 5355 they had delivered 3860 z5656 him. 846

 27:19 ¶ When 1161 he 846 was set down 2521 z5740 on 1909 the x3588 judgment seat, 968 his 846 wife 1135 sent 649 z5656 unto 4314 him, 846 saying, 3004 z5723 y2532 Have thou y4671 nothing y3367 to do x3367 x4671 with that 1565 just man: 1342 for 1063 I have suffered 3958 z5627 many things 4183 this day 4594 in 2596 a dream 3677 because 1223 of him. 846

 27:20 But 1161 the x3588 chief priests 749 and 2532 elders 4245 persuaded 3982 z5656 the x3588 multitude 3793 that 2443 they should ask 154 z5672 Barabbas, 912 and 1161 destroy 622 z5661 Jesus. 2424

 27:21 x1161 The x3588 governor 2232 answered 611 z5679 and y1161 said 2036 z5627 unto them, 846 Whether 5101 of 575 the x3588 twain 1417 will x2309 ye y2309 z5719 that I release 630 z5661 unto you? 5213 1161 They x3588 said, 2036 z5627 Barabbas. 912

 27:22 Pilate 4091 saith 3004 z5719 unto them, 846 What 5101 shall I do 4160 z5692 then 3767 with Jesus 2424 which y3588 is called 3004 z5746 Christ? 5547 [They] all 3956 say 3004 z5719 unto him, 846 Let him be crucified. 4717 z5682

 27:23 And 1161 the x3588 governor 2232 said, 5346 z5713 Why, 1063 what 5101 evil 2556 hath he done? 4160 z5656 But 1161 they x3588 cried out 2896 z5707 the more, 4057 saying, 3004 z5723 Let him be crucified. 4717 z5682

 27:24 ¶ When 1161 Pilate 4091 saw 1492 z5631 that 3754 he could prevail 5623 z5719 nothing, 3762 but 235 [that] rather 3123 a tumult 2351 was made, 1096 z5736 he took 2983 z5631 water, 5204 and washed 633 z5668 [his] hands 5495 before 561 the x3588 multitude, 3793 saying, 3004 z5723 I am 1510 z5748 innocent 121 of 575 the x3588 blood 129 of this 5127 just person: 1342 see 3700 z5695 ye 5210 [to it].

 27:25 Then 2532 answered 611 z5679 all 3956 the x3588 people, 2992 and said, 2036 z5627 His 846 blood 129 [be] on 1909 us, 2248 and 2532 on 1909 our 2257 children. y5043 x5037

 27:26 ¶ Then 5119 released x630 he y630 z5656 Barabbas 912 unto them: 846 and 1161 when he had scourged 5417 z5660 Jesus, 2424 he delivered 3860 z5656 [him] to 2443 be crucified. 4717 z5686

 27:27 Then 5119 the x3588 soldiers 4757 of the x3588 governor 2232 took 3880 z5631 Jesus 2424 into 1519 the x3588 common hall, 4232 and gathered 4863 z5627 unto 1909 him 846 the x3588 whole 3650 band 4686 [of soldiers].

 27:28 And 2532 they stripped 1562 z5660 him, 846 and put on 4060 z5656 him 846 a scarlet 2847 robe. 5511

 27:29 ¶ And 2532 when they had plaited 4120 z5660 a crown 4735 of 1537 thorns, 173 they put 2007 z5656 [it] upon 1909 his 846 head, 2776 and 2532 a reed 2563 in 1909 his 846 right hand: 1188 and 2532 they bowed the knee 1120 z5660 before 1715 him, 846 and mocked 1702 z5707 him, 846 saying, 3004 z5723 Hail, 5463 z5720 King 935 of the x3588 Jews! 2453

 27:30 And 2532 they spit 1716 z5660 upon 1519 him, 846 and took 2983 z5627 the x3588 reed, 2563 and 2532 smote 5180 z5707 him 846 on 1519 the x3588 head. 2776

 27:31 And 2532 after 3753 that they had mocked 1702 z5656 him, 846 they took 1562 z0 the x3588 robe 5511 off y1562 z5656 from x1562 him, 846 and 2532 put 1746 z0 his own 846 raiment 2440 on y1746 z5656 him, 846 and 2532 led y520 z0 him y846 away 520 z5627 x846 to y1519 crucify 4717 z5658 [him].

 27:32 And 1161 as they came out, 1831 z5740 they found 2147 z5627 a man 444 of Cyrene, 2956 Simon 4613 by name: 3686 him 5126 they compelled 29 z5656 to 2443 bear 142 z5661 his 846 cross. 4716

 27:33 And 2532 when they were come 2064 z5631 unto 1519 a place 5117 called 3004 z5746 Golgotha, 1115 that 3739 is 2076 z5748 to say, 3004 z5746 a place 5117 of a skull, 2898

 27:34 ¶ They gave 1325 z5656 him 846 vinegar 3690 to drink 4095 z5629 mingled 3396 z5772 with 3326 gall: 5521 and 2532 when he had tasted 1089 z5666 [thereof], he would 2309 z5707 not 3756 drink. 4095 z5629

 27:35 And 1161 they crucified 4717 z5660 him, 846 and parted 1266 z5668 his 846 garments, 2440 casting 906 z5723 lots: 2819 that 2443 it might be fulfilled 4137 z5686 which y3588 was spoken 4483 z5685 by 5259 the x3588 prophet, 4396 They parted 1266 z5668 my 3450 garments 2440 among them, 1438 and 2532 upon 1909 my 3450 vesture 2441 did they cast 906 z5627 lots. 2819

 27:36 And 2532 sitting down 2521 z5740 they watched 5083 z5707 him 846 there; 1563

 27:37 And 2532 set up 2007 z5656 over 1883 his 846 head 2776 his 846 accusation 156 written, 1125 z5772 THIS 3778 IS 2076 z5748 JESUS 2424 THE x3588 KING 935 OF THE x3588 JEWS. 2453

 27:38 Then 5119 were there two 1417 thieves 3027 crucified 4717 z5743 with 4862 him, 846 one 1520 on 1537 the right hand, 1188 and 2532 another 1520 on 1537 the left. 2176

 27:39 ¶ And 1161 they that passed by 3899 z5740 reviled 987 z5707 him, 846 wagging 2795 z5723 their y846 x848 heads, 2776

 27:40 And 2532 saying, 3004 z5723 Thou that destroyest 2647 z5723 the x3588 temple, 3485 and 2532 buildest 3618 z5723 [it] in 1722 three 5140 days, 2250 save 4982 z5657 thyself. 4572 If 1487 thou be 1488 z5748 the Son 5207 of God, 2316 come down 2597 z5628 from 575 the x3588 cross. 4716

 27:41 1161 Likewise 3668 also 2532 the x3588 chief priests 749 mocking 1702 z5723 [him], with 3326 the x3588 scribes 1122 and 2532 elders, 4245 said, 3004 z5707

 27:42 He saved 4982 z5656 others; 243 himself 1438 he cannot 3756 1410 z5736 save. 4982 z5658 If 1487 he be 2076 z5748 the King 935 of Israel, 2474 let him y2597 z0 now 3568 come down 2597 z5628 from 575 the x3588 cross, 4716 and 2532 we will believe 4100 z5692 him. 846

 27:43 He trusted 3982 z5754 in 1909 God; 2316 let him deliver 4506 z5663 him 846 now, 3568 if 1487 he will x2309 have y2309 z5719 him: 846 for 1063 he said, 2036 z5627 y3754 I am 1510 z5748 the Son 5207 of God. 2316

 27:44 1161 The x3588 thieves 3027 also, y2532 x846 which y3588 were crucified y4957 z5685 with x4957 him, 846 cast y3679 z0 the same y846 in his y846 teeth. 3679 z5707 x846

 27:45 Now 1161 from 575 the sixth 1623 hour 5610 there was 1096 z5633 darkness 4655 over 1909 all 3956 the x3588 land 1093 unto 2193 the ninth 1766 hour. 5610

 27:46 And 1161 about 4012 the x3588 ninth 1766 hour 5610 Jesus 2424 cried 310 z5656 with a loud 3173 voice, 5456 saying, 3004 z5723 Eli, 2241 Eli, 2241 lama 2982 sabachthani? 4518 that y5123 z5748 is to say, x5123 My 3450 God, 2316 my 3450 God, 2316 why 2444 hast thou forsaken 1459 z5627 me? 3165

 27:47 1161 Some x5100 of them y5100 that stood 2476 z5761 there, 1563 when they heard 191 z5660 [that], said, 3004 z5707 y3754 This 3778 [man] calleth x5455 for y5455 z5719 Elijah. 2243

 27:48 And 2532 straightway 2112 one 1520 of 1537 them 846 ran, 5143 z5631 and 2532 took 2983 z5631 a sponge, 4699 and 5037 filled 4130 z5660 [it] with vinegar, 3690 and 2532 put x4060 [it] on y4060 z5631 a reed, 2563 and gave y4222 z0 him y846 to drink. 4222 z5707 x846

 27:49 x1161 The y1161 x3588 rest 3062 said, 3004 z5707 Let be, 863 z5628 let us see 1492 z5632 whether 1487 Elijah 2243 will come 2064 z5736 to save 4982 z5694 him. 846

 27:50 ¶ 1161 Jesus, 2424 when he had cried 2896 z5660 again 3825 with a loud 3173 voice, 5456 yielded up 863 z5656 the x3588 ghost. 4151

 27:51 And, 2532 behold, 2400 z5628 the x3588 veil 2665 of the x3588 temple 3485 was rent 4977 z5681 in 1519 twain 1417 from 575 the top 509 to 2193 the bottom; 2736 and 2532 the x3588 earth 1093 did quake, 4579 z5681 and 2532 the x3588 rocks 4073 rent; 4977 z5681

 27:52 And 2532 the x3588 graves 3419 were opened; 455 z5681 and 2532 many 4183 bodies 4983 of the x3588 saints 40 which y3588 slept 2837 z5772 arose, 1453 z5681

 27:53 And 2532 came 1831 z5631 out of 1537 the x3588 graves 3419 after 3326 his 846 resurrection, 1454 and went 1525 z5627 into 1519 the x3588 holy 40 city, 4172 and 2532 appeared 1718 z5681 unto many. 4183

 27:54 Now 1161 when the x3588 centurion, 1543 and 2532 they x3588 that were with 3326 him, 846 watching 5083 z5723 Jesus, 2424 saw 1492 z5631 the x3588 earthquake, 4578 and 2532 those things that were done, 1096 z5637 they feared 5399 z5675 greatly, 4970 saying, 3004 z5723 Truly 230 this 3778 was 2258 z5713 the Son 5207 of God. 2316

 27:55 And 1161 many 4183 women 1135 were 2258 z5713 there 1563 beholding 2334 z5723 afar off, 575 3113 which 3748 followed 190 z5656 Jesus 2424 from 575 Galilee, 1056 ministering 1247 z5723 unto him: 846

 27:56 Among 1722 which 3739 was 2258 z5713 Mary 3137 Magdalene, 3094 and 2532 Mary 3137 the x3588 mother 3384 of James 2385 and 2532 Joses, 2500 and 2532 the x3588 mother 3384 of Zebedee's 2199 children. 5207

 27:57 When 1161 the even 3798 was come, 1096 z5637 there came 2064 z5627 a rich 4145 man 444 of 575 Arimathaea, 707 named 5122 Joseph, 2501 who 3739 also 2532 himself 846 was y3100 z0 Jesus' y2424 disciple: 3100 z5656 x2424

 27:58 He 3778 went 4334 z5631 to Pilate, 4091 and begged 154 z5668 the x3588 body 4983 of Jesus. 2424 Then 5119 Pilate 4091 commanded 2753 z5656 the x3588 body 4983 to be delivered. 591 z5683

 27:59 And 2532 when Joseph 2501 had taken 2983 z5631 the x3588 body, 4983 he wrapped 1794 z5656 it 846 in a clean 2513 linen cloth, 4616

 27:60 And 2532 laid 5087 z5656 it 846 in 1722 his own y846 x848 new 2537 tomb, 3419 which 3739 he had hewn out 2998 z5656 in 1722 the x3588 rock: 4073 and 2532 he rolled 4351 z5660 a great 3173 stone 3037 to the x3588 door 2374 of the x3588 sepulcher, 3419 and departed. 565 z5627

 27:61 And 1161 there 1563 was 2258 z5713 Mary 3137 Magdalene, 3094 and 2532 the x3588 other 243 Mary, 3137 sitting 2521 z5740 over against 561 the x3588 sepulcher. 5028

 27:62 ¶ Now 1161 the x3588 next day, 1887 that 3748 followed 2076 3326 z5748 the day of the x3588 preparation, 3904 the x3588 chief priests 749 and 2532 Pharisees 5330 came together 4863 z5681 unto 4314 Pilate, 4091

 27:63 Saying, 3004 z5723 Sir, 2962 we remember 3415 z5681 that 3754 that 1565 deceiver 4108 said, 2036 z5627 while x2089 he was yet y2089 alive, 2198 z5723 After 3326 three 5140 days 2250 I will rise again. 1453 z5743

 27:64 Command 2753 z5657 therefore 3767 that the x3588 sepulcher 5028 be made sure 805 z5683 until 2193 the x3588 third 5154 day, 2250 lest 3379 his 846 disciples 3101 come 2064 z5631 by night, 3571 and steal y2813 z0 him y846 away, 2813 z5661 x846 and 2532 say 2036 z5632 unto the x3588 people, 2992 He is risen 1453 z5681 from 575 the x3588 dead: 3498 so 2532 the x3588 last 2078 error 4106 shall be 2071 z5704 worse x5501 than y5501 the x3588 first. 4413

 27:65 1161 Pilate 4091 said 5346 z5713 unto them, 846 Ye have 2192 z5719 a watch: 2892 go your way, 5217 z5720 make [it] as sure 805 z5663 as 5613 ye can. 1492 z5758

 27:66 So 1161 they x3588 went, 4198 z5679 and made y805 z0 the sepulcher y5028 sure, 805 z5662 x3588 x5028 sealing 4972 z5660 the x3588 stone, 3037 and x2532 setting y3326 a watch. 2892 x3326
