22And they convey him to a place called Golgotha, which is being interpreted, The place of a skull. 23And they gave him to drink wine medicated with myrrh: but he received it not. 24And having crucified him, they divided his garments, casting the lot upon them, what each should take. 25Now it was the third hour, and they crucified him. 26And there was an inscription of his crime written over him, THE KING OF THE JEWS. 27And with him they crucified two robbers, one on his right hand, and the other on his left. 28And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, “And he was reckoned among the transgressors.” 29And they who passed along, blasphemed him, shaking their heads, and saying, Aha! thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, 30save thyself, and come down from the cross. 31And in the same manner also, the chief priests mocking him, among each other, with the scribes, said, He saved others, himself he cannot save. 32Thou Messiah, King of Israel, come now down from the cross, that we may see, and believe. Even those who were crucified with him railed on him.
33Now when the sixth hour came, there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour. 34And at the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabacthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, for what cause hast thou abandoned me? 35And some of those who stood by, hearing him, said, Behold, he crieth for Elias. 36Then one ran, and filling a sponge with vinegar, fixed it round a cane, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone, let us see if Elias comes to take him down. 37Then Jesus, uttering a loud cry, gave up the ghost.
38And the vail of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom. 39And the centurion, who stood opposite to him, observing, that with such a cry he gave up the ghost, said, Assuredly this was the Son of God.
40Now there were also women looking on at a distance; among whom also was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the small, and the mother of Joses, and Salome. 41These women followed him when he was in Galilee, and supplied his wants; and many other women who went up with him to Jerusalem.
42And when the evening was now come (since it was the preparation, that is the day preceding the sabbath), 43Joseph, who was from Arimathea, came, a respectable person, a counsellor, and who himself also was expecting the kingdom of God; taking courage, he went in to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. 44Then Pilate marvelled that he should be already dead: and calling for the centurion, he asked him, If he had been dead any time. 45And when he knew it from the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph. 46And having bought a wrapper of fine linen, and taken him down, he wrapped him in the linen cloth, and laid him in a sepulchre, which was hewn out of a rock; and rolled a stone to the door of the sepulchre. 47Now Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of Joses, saw where he was laid.
[CHAP. XVI.]
AND when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, purchased aromatics, that they might come, and anoint him. 2And very early on the first day of the week, they come to the sepulchre, as the sun was rising. 3And said among themselves, Who will roll away for us the stone from the door of the sepulchre? 4And looking again, they saw that the stone was rolled away, for it was vastly large. 5And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting at the right hand, clothed in a white robe; and they were greatly terrified. 6But he saith unto them, Be not affrighted, ye seek Jesus the Nazarean, who was crucified; he is risen, he is not here: behold the place where they laid him. 7But go, tell his disciples, and Peter, that he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him, as he told you. 8And they going out hastily, fled from the sepulchre, for trembling and astonishment had seized them: and they said not a word to any person, for they were affrighted.
9Now being arisen early, on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils. 10She going, told it to those who had been with him, as they were wailing and weeping. 11And they, when they heard that he was alive, and had been seen by her, gave no credit to her.
12Then after this, he was manifested under another form, to two of them as they were walking, and going into the country. 13And they came back and told the news to the rest; neither did they believe them. 14Afterwards he shewed himself to the eleven, as they were sitting at table, and upbraided them for their infidelity and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen him after he was risen. 15And he said unto them, Go into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16He that believeth and is baptised shall be saved; and he that believeth not shall be damned. 17And these signs shall follow those that believe: in my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly potion, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover health.
19Then the Lord, after having thus spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. 20But they going forth preached every where, the Lord working mightily with them, and confirming the word, by attendant miracles.
