Mt Chapter 27 Verses 1-66

27:1
Now
when
it
was
morning,
all
the
chief
priests
and
those
in
authority
took
thought
together
with
the
purpose
of
putting
Jesus
to
death.
27:2
And
they
put
cords
on
him
and
took
him
away,
and
gave
him
up to
Pilate,
the
ruler.
27:3
Then
Judas,
who
was
false
to
him,
seeing
that
he
was
to
be
put
to
death,
in
his
regret
took
back
the
thirty
bits
of
silver
to
the
chief
priests
and
those
in
authority,
27:4
Saying,
I
have
done
wrong
in
giving
into
your
hands
an
upright
man.
But
they
said,
What
is
that
to
us?
it
is
your
business.
27:5
And
he
put
down
the
silver
in
the
Temple
and
went out,
and
put
himself
to
death
by
hanging.
27:6
And
the
chief
priests
took
the
silver
and
said,
It
is
not
right
to
put
it
in
the
Temple
store
for
it
is
the
price
of
blood.
27:7
And
they
made
a
decision
to
get
with
the
silver
the
potter’s
field,
as
a
place
for
the
dead
of
other
countries.
27:8
For
this
cause
that
field
was
named,
The
field
of
blood,
to
this
day.
27:9
Then
came
true
that
which
was
said
by
Jeremiah
the
prophet,
And
they
took
the
thirty
bits
of
silver,
the
price
of
him
who
was
valued
by
the
children
of
Israel;
27:10
And
they
gave
them
for
the
potter’s
field,
as
I
had
word
from
the
Lord.
27:11
And
Jesus
was
before
the
ruler,
who
put
a
question
to
him,
Are you
the
King
of
the
Jews?
And
Jesus
said
to
him,
You
say
so.
27:12
But
when
the
chief
priests
and
those
in
authority
made
statements
against
him,
he
gave
no
answer.
27:13
Then
says
Pilate
to
him,
Do you
give
no
attention
to
what
their
witnesses
say
against
you?
27:14
And
he
gave
him
no
answer,
not
even
a
word:
so
that
the
ruler
was
greatly
surprised.
27:15
Now
at
the
feast
it
was
the
way
for
the
ruler
to
let
free
to
the
people
one
prisoner,
at
their
selection.
27:16
And
they
had
then
an
important
prisoner,
whose
name
was
Barabbas.
27:17
So
when
they
came
together,
Pilate
said
to
them,
Whom
will you
have?
Barabbas,
or
Jesus,
who
is
named
Christ?
27:18
For
he
saw
that
for
envy
they
had
given
him
up.
27:19
And
while
he
was
on
the
judge’s
seat,
his
wife
sent
to
him,
saying,
Have
nothing
to
do
with
that
upright
man,
for
I
have
had
much
trouble
this
day
in
a
dream
because
of
him.
27:20
Now
the
chief
priests
and
those
in
authority
got
the
people
to
make
request
for
Barabbas,
and
for
Jesus
to
be
put
to
death.
27:21
But
the
ruler
made
answer
and
said
to
them,
Which
of
the
two
is
it
your
pleasure
that
I
let go
free?
And
they
said,
Barabbas.
27:22
Pilate
says
to
them,
What,
then,
am I
to
do
with
Jesus,
who
is
named
Christ?
They
all
say,
Let
him
be
put
to
death
on
the
cross.
27:23
And
he
said,
Why,
what
evil
has
he
done?
But
they
gave
loud
cries,
saying,
To
the
cross
with
him!
27:24
So
when
Pilate
saw
that
he
was able
to
do
nothing,
but
that
trouble
was working
up,
he
took
water
and,
washing his hands
before
the
people,
said,
The
blood
of
this
upright
man
is
not
on
my
hands:
you
are
responsible.
27:25
And
all
the
people
made
answer
and
said,
Let
his
blood
be
on
us,
and
on
our
children.
27:26
Then
he
let
Barabbas
go
free:
but
after
having
Jesus
whipped,
he
gave
him
up to
be
put
to
death
on
the
cross.
27:27
Then
the
ruler’s
armed men
took
Jesus
into
the
open
square,
and
got
all
their
band
together.
27:28
And
they
took off
his
clothing,
and
put on
him
a
red
robe.
27:29
And
they
made
a
crown
of
thorns
and
put
it
on
his
head,
and
put
a
rod
in
his
right hand,
and
they
went down
on
their
knees
before
him,
and
made
sport
of
him,
saying,
Long
life
to
the
King
of
the
Jews.
27:30
And
they
put
shame
on
him,
and
gave
him
blows
on
the
head
with
the
rod.
27:31
And
when
they
had
made
sport
of
him,
they
took
the
robe
off
him,
and
put
his
clothing
on
him,
and
took
him
away
to
put
him
on
the
cross.
27:32
And
while
they
were
coming out,
they
saw
a
man
of
Cyrene,
Simon
by
name,
and
they
made
him
go
with
them,
so
that
he
might
take
up
his
cross.
27:33
And
when
they
came to
the
place
named
Golgotha,
that
is
to
say,
Dead
Man’s
Head,
27:34
They
gave
him
wine
mixed
with
bitter
drink:
and
after
tasting
it,
he
took
no more.
27:35
And
when
they
had
put
him
on
the
cross,
they
made
division
of
his
clothing
among
them
by
the
decision
of
chance.
27:36
And
they
were
seated
there
watching
him.
27:37
And
they
put
up
over
his
head
the
statement
of
his
crime
in
writing,
THIS
IS
JESUS
THE
KING
OF
THE
JEWS.
27:38
Then
two
thieves
were
put on
crosses
with
him,
one
on
the
right
and
one
on
the
left.
27:39
And
those
who
went by
said
bitter
words
to
him,
shaking
their
heads
and
saying,
27:40
You
who
would
give
the
Temple
to
destruction
and
put
it
up
again
in
three days,
get
yourself
free:
if
you
are
the
Son
of
God,
come
down
from
the
cross.
27:41
In
the
same way,
the
chief
priests,
making
sport
of
him,
with
the
scribes
and
those
in
authority,
said,
27:42
A
saviour
of
others,
he
has
no
salvation
for
himself.
If
he
is
the
King
of
Israel,
let
him
now
come
down
from
the
cross,
and
we
will
have
faith
in
him.
27:43
He
put
his
faith
in
God;
let
God
be
his
saviour
now,
if
he
will
have
him;
for
he
said,
I
am
the
Son
of
God.
27:44
And
the
thieves
who
were
on
the
crosses
said
evil
words
to
him.
27:45
Now
from
the
sixth
hour
it
was
dark
over
all
the
land
till
the
ninth
hour.
27:46
And
about
the
ninth
hour
Jesus
gave
a
loud
cry,
saying,
Eli,
Eli,
lama
sabachthani?
that
is,
My
God,
my
God,
why
are you
turned
away from
me?
27:47
And
some
of
those
who
were
near
by,
hearing
it,
said,
This
man
is
crying
to
Elijah.
27:48
And
straight away
one
of
them
went
quickly,
and
took
a
sponge,
and
made
it
full
of
bitter
wine,
and
put
it
on
a
rod
and
gave
him
drink.
27:49
And
the rest
said,
Let
him
be;
let
us
see
if
Elijah
will
come to
his
help.
27:50
And
Jesus
gave
another
loud
cry,
and
gave
up
his
spirit.
27:51
And
the
curtain
of
the
Temple
was
parted
in
two
from
end
to
end;
and
there
was
an
earth-shock;
and
the
rocks
were
broken;
27:52
And
the
resting-places
of
the
dead
came
open;
and
the
bodies
of
a
number
of
sleeping
saints
came to
life;
27:53
And
coming out
of
their
resting-places,
after
he
had
come
again
from
the
dead,
they
went into
the
holy
town
and
were
seen
by
a
number
of
people.
27:54
Now
the
captain
and
those
who
were
with
him
watching
Jesus,
when
they
saw
the
earth-shock
and
the
things
which
were
done,
were
in
great
fear
and
said,
Truly
this
was
a
son
of
God.
27:55
And
a
number
of
women
were
there,
watching
from
a
distance,
who
had
come
with
Jesus
from
Galilee,
waiting
on
his
needs.
27:56
Among
whom
was
Mary
Magdalene,
and
Mary,
the
mother
of
James
and
Joses,
and
the
mother
of
the
sons
of
Zebedee.
27:57
And
in
the
evening,
there
came
a
man
of
wealth
from
Arimathaea,
Joseph
by
name,
who
was
a
disciple
of
Jesus:
27:58
This
man
went
in
to
Pilate,
and
made
a
request
for
the
body
of
Jesus.
Then
Pilate
gave
orders
for
it
to
be
given
to
him.
27:59
And
Joseph
took
the
body,
folding
it
in
clean
linen,
27:60
And
put
it
in
the
resting-place
which
had been
cut out
of
the
rock
for
himself;
and
after
rolling
a
great
stone
to
the
door
of
it
he
went away.
27:61
And
Mary
Magdalene
was
there,
and
the
other
Mary,
seated
by
the
place
of
the
dead.
27:62
Now
on
the
day
after
the
getting ready
of
the
Passover,
the
chief
priests
and
Pharisees
came
together
to
Pilate,
27:63
Saying,
Sir,
we
have
in
mind
how
that
false
man
said,
while
he
was
still
living,
After
three days
I
will
come
again
from
the
dead.
27:64
Give
orders,
then,
that
the
place
where
his
body
is
may
be
made
safe
till
the
third
day,
for
fear
that
his
disciples
come
and
take
him
away
secretly
and
say
to
the
people,
He
has
come back
from
the
dead:
and
the
last
error
will
be
worse
than
the
first.
27:65
Pilate
said
to
them,
You
have
watchmen;
go
and
make
it
as
safe
as
you
are able.
27:66
So
they
went,
and
made
safe
the
place
where
his
body
was,
putting
a
stamp
on
the
stone,
and
the
watchmen
were
with
them.
