Leviticus
7, 8
Lev
7:1 " 'This is the law of the trespass offering. It is most
holy.
Lev
7:2 In the place where they kill the burnt offering, he shall kill
the trespass offering; and its blood he shall sprinkle around on the
altar.
Lev
7:3 He shall offer all of its fat: the fat tail, and the fat that
covers the innards,
Lev
7:4 and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by
the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, shall he
take away;
Lev
7:5 and the priest shall burn them on the altar for an offering made
by fire to Yahweh: it is a trespass offering.
Lev
7:6 Every male among the priests may eat of it. It shall be eaten in
a holy place. It is most holy.
Lev
7:7 " 'As is the sin offering, so is the trespass offering;
there is one law for them. The priest who makes atonement with them
shall have it.
Lev
7:8 The priest who offers any man's burnt offering, even the priest
shall have for himself the skin of the burnt offering which he has
offered.
Lev
7:9 Every meal offering that is baked in the oven, and all that is
dressed in the pan, and on the griddle, shall be the priest's who
offers it.
Lev
7:10 Every meal offering, mixed with oil or dry, belongs to all the
sons of Aaron, one as well as another.
Lev
7:11 " 'This is the law of the sacrifice of peace offerings,
which one shall offer to Yahweh.
Lev
7:12 If he offers it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer with
the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and
unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and cakes mixed with oil.
Lev
7:13 With cakes of leavened bread he shall offer his offering with
the sacrifice of his peace offerings for thanksgiving.
Lev
7:14 Of it he shall offer one out of each offering for a heave
offering to Yahweh. It shall be the priest's who sprinkles the blood
of the peace offerings.
Lev
7:15 The flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings for
thanksgiving shall be eaten on the day of his offering. He shall not
leave any of it until the morning.
Lev
7:16 " 'But if the sacrifice of his offering is a vow, or a
freewill offering, it shall be eaten on the day that he offers his
sacrifice; and on the next day what remains of it shall be eaten:
Lev
7:17 but what remains of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day
shall be burned with fire.
Lev
7:18 If any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offerings is
eaten on the third day, it will not be accepted, neither shall it be
imputed to him who offers it. It will be an abomination, and the soul
who eats any of it will bear his iniquity.
Lev
7:19 " 'The flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be
eaten. It shall be burned with fire. As for the flesh, everyone who
is clean may eat it;
Lev
7:20 but the soul who eats of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace
offerings, that belongs to Yahweh, having his uncleanness on him,
that soul shall be cut off from his people.
Lev
7:21 When anyone touches any unclean thing, the uncleanness of man,
or an unclean animal, or any unclean abomination, and eats some of
the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which belong to
Yahweh, that soul shall be cut off from his people.' "
Lev
7:22 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Lev
7:23 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'You shall eat
no fat, of bull, or sheep, or goat.
Lev
7:24 The fat of that which dies of itself, and the fat of that which
is torn of animals, may be used for any other service, but you shall
in no way eat of it.
Lev
7:25 For whoever eats the fat of the animal, of which men offer an
offering made by fire to Yahweh, even the soul who eats it shall be
cut off from his people.
Lev
7:26 You shall not eat any blood, whether it is of bird or of
animal, in any of your dwellings.
Lev
7:27 Whoever it is who eats any blood, that soul shall be cut off
from his people.' "
Lev
7:28 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Lev
7:29 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'He who offers
the sacrifice of his peace offerings to Yahweh shall bring his
offering to Yahweh out of the sacrifice of his peace offerings.
Lev
7:30 With his own hands he shall bring the offerings of Yahweh made
by fire. He shall bring the fat with the breast, that the breast may
be waved for a wave offering before Yahweh.
Lev
7:31 The priest shall burn the fat on the altar, but the breast
shall be Aaron's and his sons'.
Lev
7:32 The right thigh you shall give to the priest for a heave
offering out of the sacrifices of your peace offerings.
Lev
7:33 He among the sons of Aaron who offers the blood of the peace
offerings, and the fat, shall have the right thigh for a portion.
Lev
7:34 For the waved breast and the heaved thigh I have taken from the
children of Israel out of the sacrifices of their peace offerings,
and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons as their
portion forever from the children of Israel.' "
Lev
7:35 This is the anointing portion of Aaron, and the anointing
portion of his sons, out of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire, in
the day when he presented them to minister to Yahweh in the priest's
office;
Lev
7:36 which Yahweh commanded to be given them of the children of
Israel, in the day that he anointed them. It is their portion forever
throughout their generations.
Lev
7:37 This is the law of the burnt offering, of the meal offering,
and of the sin offering, and of the trespass offering, and of the
consecration, and of the sacrifice of peace offerings;
Lev
7:38 which Yahweh commanded Moses in Mount Sinai, in the day that he
commanded the children of Israel to offer their offerings to Yahweh,
in the wilderness of Sinai.
Lev
8:1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Lev
8:2 "Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments, and
the anointing oil, and the bull of the sin offering, and the two
rams, and the basket of unleavened bread;
Lev
8:3 and assemble all the congregation at the door of the Tent of
Meeting."
Lev
8:4 Moses did as Yahweh commanded him; and the congregation was
assembled at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
Lev
8:5 Moses said to the congregation, "This is the thing which
Yahweh has commanded to be done."
Lev
8:6 Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and washed them with water.
Lev
8:7 He put the coat on him, tied the sash on him, clothed him with
the robe, put the ephod on him, and he tied the skillfully woven band
of the ephod on him, and fastened it to him with it.
Lev
8:8 He placed the breastplate on him; and in the breastplate he put
the Urim and the Thummim.
Lev
8:9 He set the turban on his head; and on the turban, in front, he
set the golden plate, the holy crown; as Yahweh commanded Moses.
Lev
8:10 Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle and
all that was in it, and sanctified them.
Lev
8:11 He sprinkled it on the altar seven times, and anointed the
altar and all its vessels, and the basin and its base, to sanctify
them.
Lev
8:12 He poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron's head, and
anointed him, to sanctify him.
Lev
8:13 Moses brought Aaron's sons, and clothed them with coats, and
tied sashes on them, and put headbands on them; as Yahweh commanded
Moses.
Lev
8:14 He brought the bull of the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons
laid their hands on the head of the bull of the sin offering.
Lev
8:15 He killed it; and Moses took the blood, and put it around on
the horns of the altar with his finger, and purified the altar, and
poured out the blood at the base of the altar, and sanctified it, to
make atonement for it.
Lev
8:16 He took all the fat that was on the innards, and the cover of
the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat; and Moses burned it on
the altar.
Lev
8:17 But the bull, and its skin, and its flesh, and its dung, he
burned with fire outside the camp; as Yahweh commanded Moses.
Lev
8:18 He presented the ram of the burnt offering: and Aaron and his
sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.
Lev
8:19 He killed it; and Moses sprinkled the blood around on the
altar.
Lev
8:20 He cut the ram into its pieces; and Moses burned the head, and
the pieces, and the fat.
Lev
8:21 He washed the innards and the legs with water; and Moses burned
the whole ram on the altar. It was a burnt offering for a pleasant
aroma. It was an offering made by fire to Yahweh; as Yahweh commanded
Moses.
Lev
8:22 He presented the other ram, the ram of consecration: and Aaron
and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.
Lev
8:23 He killed it; and Moses took some of its blood, and put it on
the tip of Aaron's right ear, and on the thumb of his right hand, and
on the great toe of his right foot.
Lev
8:24 He brought Aaron's sons; and Moses put some of the blood on the
tip of their right ear, and on the thumb of their right hand, and on
the great toe of their right foot; and Moses sprinkled the blood
around on the altar.
Lev
8:25 He took the fat, and the fat tail, and all the fat that was on
the innards, and the cover of the liver, and the two kidneys, and
their fat, and the right thigh;
Lev
8:26 and out of the basket of unleavened bread, that was before
Yahweh, he took one unleavened cake, and one cake of oiled bread, and
one wafer, and placed them on the fat, and on the right thigh.
Lev
8:27 He put all these in Aaron's hands and in his sons' hands, and
waved them for a wave offering before Yahweh.
Lev
8:28 Moses took them from their hands, and burned them on the altar
on the burnt offering. They were a consecration for a pleasant aroma.
It was an offering made by fire to Yahweh.
Lev
8:29 Moses took the breast, and waved it for a wave offering before
Yahweh. It was Moses' portion of the ram of consecration, as Yahweh
commanded Moses.
Lev
8:30 Moses took some of the anointing oil, and some of the blood
which was on the altar, and sprinkled it on Aaron, on his garments,
and on his sons, and on his sons' garments with him, and sanctified
Aaron, his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him.
Lev
8:31 Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, "Boil the flesh at
the door of the Tent of Meeting, and there eat it and the bread that
is in the basket of consecration, as I commanded, saying, 'Aaron and
his sons shall eat it.'
Lev
8:32 What remains of the flesh and of the bread you shall burn with
fire.
Lev
8:33 You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting seven
days, until the days of your consecration are fulfilled: for he shall
consecrate you seven days.
Lev
8:34 What has been done this day, so Yahweh has commanded to do, to
make atonement for you.
Lev
8:35 You shall stay at the door of the Tent of Meeting day and night
seven days, and keep Yahweh's command, that you don't die: for so I
am commanded."
Lev
8:36 Aaron and his sons did all the things which Yahweh commanded by
Moses.

Leviticus
9, 10
Lev
9:1 It happened on the eighth day, that Moses called Aaron and his
sons, and the elders of Israel;
Lev
9:2 and he said to Aaron, "Take a calf from the herd for a sin
offering, and a ram for a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer
them before Yahweh.
Lev
9:3 You shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'Take a male
goat for a sin offering; and a calf and a lamb, both a year old,
without blemish, for a burnt offering;
Lev
9:4 and a bull and a ram for peace offerings, to sacrifice before
Yahweh; and a meal offering mixed with oil: for today Yahweh appears
to you.' "
Lev
9:5 They brought what Moses commanded before the Tent of Meeting:
and all the congregation drew near and stood before Yahweh.
Lev
9:6 Moses said, "This is the thing which Yahweh commanded that
you should do: and the glory of Yahweh shall appear to you."
Lev
9:7 Moses said to Aaron, "Draw near to the altar, and offer
your sin offering, and your burnt offering, and make atonement for
yourself, and for the people; and offer the offering of the people,
and make atonement for them; as Yahweh commanded."
Lev
9:8 So Aaron drew near to the altar, and killed the calf of the sin
offering, which was for himself.
Lev
9:9 The sons of Aaron presented the blood to him; and he dipped his
finger in the blood, and put it on the horns of the altar, and poured
out the blood at the base of the altar:
Lev
9:10 but the fat, and the kidneys, and the cover from the liver of
the sin offering, he burned upon the altar; as Yahweh commanded
Moses.
Lev
9:11 The flesh and the skin he burned with fire outside the camp.
Lev
9:12 He killed the burnt offering; and Aaron's sons delivered the
blood to him, and he sprinkled it around on the altar.
Lev
9:13 They delivered the burnt offering to him, piece by piece, and
the head: and he burned them upon the altar.
Lev
9:14 He washed the innards and the legs, and burned them on the
burnt offering on the altar.
Lev
9:15 He presented the people's offering, and took the goat of the
sin offering which was for the people, and killed it, and offered it
for sin, like the first.
Lev
9:16 He presented the burnt offering, and offered it according to
the ordinance.
Lev
9:17 He presented the meal offering, and filled his hand from there,
and burned it upon the altar, besides the burnt offering of the
morning.
Lev
9:18 He also killed the bull and the ram, the sacrifice of peace
offerings, which was for the people: and Aaron's sons delivered to
him the blood, which he sprinkled around on the altar,
Lev
9:19 and the fat of the bull and of the ram, the fat tail, and that
which covers the innards, and the kidneys, and the cover of the
liver:
Lev
9:20 and they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burned the fat on
the altar:
Lev
9:21 and the breasts and the right thigh Aaron waved for a wave
offering before Yahweh, as Moses commanded.
Lev
9:22 Aaron lifted up his hands toward the people, and blessed them;
and he came down from offering the sin offering, and the burnt
offering, and the peace offerings.
Lev
9:23 Moses and Aaron went into the Tent of Meeting, and came out,
and blessed the people: and the glory of Yahweh appeared to all the
people.
Lev
9:24 There came forth fire from before Yahweh, and consumed the
burnt offering and the fat upon the altar: and when all the people
saw it, they shouted, and fell on their faces.
Lev
10:1 Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer, and
put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and offered strange fire
before Yahweh, which he had not commanded them.
Lev
10:2 And fire came forth from before Yahweh, and devoured them, and
they died before Yahweh.
Lev
10:3 Then Moses said to Aaron, "This is what Yahweh spoke of,
saying, 'I will show myself holy to those who come near me, and
before all the people I will be glorified.' " Aaron held his
peace.
Lev
10:4 Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle
of Aaron, and said to them, "Draw near, carry your brothers from
before the sanctuary out of the camp."
Lev
10:5 So they drew near, and carried them in their coats out of the
camp, as Moses had said.
Lev
10:6 Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons,
"Don't let the hair of your heads go loose, neither tear your
clothes; that you don't die, and that he not be angry with all the
congregation: but let your brothers, the whole house of Israel,
bewail the burning which Yahweh has kindled.
Lev
10:7 You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting, lest
you die; for the anointing oil of Yahweh is on you." They did
according to the word of Moses.
Lev
10:8 Yahweh spoke to Aaron, saying,
Lev
10:9 "Drink no wine nor strong drink, you, nor your sons with
you, when you go into the Tent of Meeting, that you don't die: it
shall be a statute forever throughout your generations:
Lev
10:10 and that you are to make a distinction between the holy and
the common, and between the unclean and the clean;
Lev
10:11 and that you are to teach the children of Israel all the
statutes which Yahweh has spoken to them by Moses."
Lev
10:12 Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons
who were left, "Take the meal offering that remains of the
offerings of Yahweh made by fire, and eat it without yeast beside the
altar; for it is most holy;
Lev
10:13 and you shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your
portion, and your sons' portion, of the offerings of Yahweh made by
fire: for so I am commanded.
Lev
10:14 The waved breast and the heaved thigh you shall eat in a clean
place, you, and your sons, and your daughters with you: for they are
given as your portion, and your sons' portion, out of the sacrifices
of the peace offerings of the children of Israel.
Lev
10:15 The heaved thigh and the waved breast they shall bring with
the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering
before Yahweh: and it shall be yours, and your sons' with you, as a
portion forever; as Yahweh has commanded."
Lev
10:16 Moses diligently inquired about the goat of the sin offering,
and, behold, it was burned: and he was angry with Eleazar and with
Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left, saying,
Lev
10:17 "Why haven't you eaten the sin offering in the place of
the sanctuary, seeing it is most holy, and he has given it you to
bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them
before Yahweh?
Lev
10:18 Behold, its blood was not brought into the inner part of the
sanctuary: you certainly should have eaten it in the sanctuary, as I
commanded."
Lev
10:19 Aaron spoke to Moses, "Behold, this day they have offered
their sin offering and their burnt offering before Yahweh; and such
things as these have happened to me: and if I had eaten the sin
offering today, would it have been pleasing in the sight of Yahweh?"
Lev
10:20 When Moses heard that, it was pleasing in his sight.

Leviticus
11, 12
Lev
11:1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
Lev
11:2 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'These are the
living things which you may eat among all the animals that are on the
earth.
Lev
11:3 Whatever parts the hoof, and is cloven-footed, and chews the
cud among the animals, that you may eat.
Lev
11:4 " 'Nevertheless these you shall not eat of those that chew
the cud, or of those who part the hoof: the camel, because he chews
the cud but doesn't have a parted hoof, he is unclean to you.
Lev
11:5 The coney, because he chews the cud but doesn't have a parted
hoof, he is unclean to you.
Lev
11:6 The hare, because she chews the cud but doesn't part the hoof,
she is unclean to you.
Lev
11:7 The pig, because he has a split hoof, and is cloven-footed, but
doesn't chew the cud, he is unclean to you.
Lev
11:8 Of their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall
not touch; they are unclean to you.
Lev
11:9 " 'These you may eat of all that are in the waters:
whatever has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the
rivers, that you may eat.
Lev
11:10 All that don't have fins and scales in the seas, and in the
rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of all the living
creatures that are in the waters, they are an abomination to you,
Lev
11:11 and you detest them. You shall not eat of their flesh, and you
shall detest their carcasses.
Lev
11:12 Whatever has no fins nor scales in the waters, that is an
abomination to you.
Lev
11:13 " 'These you shall detest among the birds; they shall not
be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the vulture, and
the black vulture,
Lev
11:14 and the red kite, any kind of black kite,
Lev
11:15 any kind of raven,
Lev
11:16 the horned owl, the screech owl, and the gull, any kind of
hawk,
Lev
11:17 the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl,
Lev
11:18 the white owl, the desert owl, the osprey,
Lev
11:19 the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, and the bat.
Lev
11:20 " 'All flying insects that walk on all fours are an
abomination to you.
Lev
11:21 Yet you may eat these: of all winged creeping things that go
on all fours, which have legs above their feet, with which to hop on
the earth.
Lev
11:22 Even of these you may eat: any kind of locust, any kind of
katydid, any kind of cricket, and any kind of grasshopper.
Lev
11:23 But all winged creeping things which have four feet, are an
abomination to you.
Lev
11:24 " 'By these you will become unclean: whoever touches the
carcass of them shall be unclean until the evening.
Lev
11:25 Whoever carries any part of their carcass shall wash his
clothes, and be unclean until the evening.
Lev
11:26 " 'Every animal which parts the hoof, and is not
cloven-footed, nor chews the cud, is unclean to you. Everyone who
touches them shall be unclean.
Lev
11:27 Whatever goes on its paws, among all animals that go on all
fours, they are unclean to you. Whoever touches their carcass shall
be unclean until the evening.
Lev
11:28 He who carries their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be
unclean until the evening. They are unclean to you.
Lev
11:29 " 'These are they which are unclean to you among the
creeping things that creep on the earth: the weasel, the rat, any
kind of great lizard,
Lev
11:30 the gecko, and the monitor lizard, the wall lizard, the skink,
and the chameleon.
Lev
11:31 These are they which are unclean to you among all that creep.
Whoever touches them when they are dead, shall be unclean until the
evening.
Lev
11:32 On whatever any of them falls when they are dead, it shall be
unclean; whether it is any vessel of wood, or clothing, or skin, or
sack, whatever vessel it is, with which any work is done, it must be
put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening; then it
will be clean.
Lev
11:33 Every earthen vessel, into which any of them falls, all that
is in it shall be unclean, and you shall break it.
Lev
11:34 All food which may be eaten, that on which water comes, shall
be unclean; and all drink that may be drunk in every such vessel
shall be unclean.
Lev
11:35 Everything whereupon part of their carcass falls shall be
unclean; whether oven, or range for pots, it shall be broken in
pieces: they are unclean, and shall be unclean to you.
Lev
11:36 Nevertheless a spring or a cistern in which water is a
gathered shall be clean: but that which touches their carcass shall
be unclean.
Lev
11:37 If part of their carcass falls on any sowing seed which is to
be sown, it is clean.
Lev
11:38 But if water is put on the seed, and part of their carcass
falls on it, it is unclean to you.
Lev
11:39 " 'If any animal, of which you may eat, dies; he who
touches its carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
Lev
11:40 He who eats of its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be
unclean until the evening. He also who carries its carcass shall wash
his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.
Lev
11:41 " 'Every creeping thing that creeps on the earth is an
abomination. It shall not be eaten.
Lev
11:42 Whatever goes on its belly, and whatever goes on all fours, or
whatever has many feet, even all creeping things that creep on the
earth, them you shall not eat; for they are an abomination.
Lev
11:43 You shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping
thing that creeps, neither shall you make yourselves unclean with
them, that you should be defiled thereby.
Lev
11:44 For I am Yahweh your God. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and
be holy; for I am holy: neither shall you defile yourselves with any
kind of creeping thing that moves on the earth.
Lev
11:45 For I am Yahweh who brought you up out of the land of Egypt,
to be your God. You shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.
Lev
11:46 " 'This is the law of the animal, and of the bird, and of
every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature
that creeps on the earth,
Lev
11:47 to make a distinction between the unclean and the clean, and
between the living thing that may be eaten and the living thing that
may not be eaten.' "
Lev
12:1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
Lev
12:2 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'If a woman
conceives, and bears a male child, then she shall be unclean seven
days; as in the days of her monthly period she shall be unclean.
Lev
12:3 In the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be
circumcised.
Lev
12:4 She shall continue in the blood of purification thirty-three
days. She shall not touch any holy thing, nor come into the
sanctuary, until the days of her purifying are completed.
Lev
12:5 But if she bears a female child, then she shall be unclean two
weeks, as in her period; and she shall continue in the blood of
purification sixty-six days.
Lev
12:6 " 'When the days of her purification are completed, for a
son, or for a daughter, she shall bring to the priest at the door of
the Tent of Meeting, a year old lamb for a burnt offering, and a
young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering:
Lev
12:7 and he shall offer it before Yahweh, and make atonement for
her; and she shall be cleansed from the fountain of her blood. "
'This is the law for her who bears, whether a male or a female.
Lev
12:8 If she cannot afford a lamb, then she shall take two
turtledoves, or two young pigeons; the one for a burnt offering, and
the other for a sin offering: and the priest shall make atonement for
her, and she shall be clean.' "

Mark 15
Mar
15:1 Immediately in the morning the chief priests, with the elders
and scribes, and the whole council, held a consultation, and bound
Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate.
Mar
15:2 Pilate asked him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" He
answered, "So you say."
Mar
15:3 The chief priests accused him of many things.
Mar
15:4 Pilate again asked him, "Have you no answer? See how many
things they testify against you!"
Mar
15:5 But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate marveled.
Mar
15:6 Now at the feast he used to release to them one prisoner, whom
they asked of him.
Mar
15:7 There was one called Barabbas, bound with those who had made
insurrection, men who in the insurrection had committed murder.
Mar
15:8 The multitude, crying aloud, began to ask him to do as he
always did for them.
Mar
15:9 Pilate answered them, saying, "Do you want me to release
to you the King of the Jews?"
Mar
15:10 For he perceived that for envy the chief priests had delivered
him up.
Mar
15:11 But the chief priests stirred up the multitude, that he should
release Barabbas to them instead.
Mar
15:12 Pilate again asked them, "What then should I do to him
whom you call the King of the Jews?"
Mar
15:13 They cried out again, "Crucify him!"
Mar
15:14 Pilate said to them, "Why, what evil has he done?"
But they cried out exceedingly, "Crucify him!"
Mar
15:15 Pilate, wishing to please the multitude, released Barabbas to
them, and handed over Jesus, when he had flogged him, to be
crucified.
Mar
15:16 The soldiers led him away within the court, which is the
Praetorium; and they called together the whole cohort.
Mar
15:17 They clothed him with purple, and weaving a crown of thorns,
they put it on him.
Mar
15:18 They began to salute him, "Hail, King of the Jews!"
Mar
15:19 They struck his head with a reed, and spat on him, and bowing
their knees, did homage to him.
Mar
15:20 When they had mocked him, they took the purple off of him, and
put his own garments on him. They led him out to crucify him.
Mar
15:21 They compelled one passing by, coming from the country, Simon
of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to go with them, that
he might bear his cross.
Mar
15:22 They brought him to the place called Golgotha, which is, being
interpreted, "The place of a skull."
Mar
15:23 They offered him wine mixed with myrrh to drink, but he didn't
take it.
Mar
15:24 Crucifying him, they parted his garments among them, casting
lots on them, what each should take.
Mar
15:25 It was the third hour, and they crucified him.
Mar
15:26 The superscription of his accusation was written over him,
"THE KING OF THE JEWS."
Mar
15:27 With him they crucified two robbers; one on his right hand,
and one on his left.
Mar
15:28 The Scripture was fulfilled, which says, "He was numbered
with transgressors."
Mar
15:29 Those who passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads, and
saying, "Ha! You who destroy the temple, and build it in three
days,
Mar
15:30 save yourself, and come down from the cross!"
Mar
15:31 Likewise, also the chief priests mocking among themselves with
the scribes said, "He saved others. He can't save himself.
Mar
15:32 Let the Christ, the King of Israel, now come down from the
cross, that we may see and believe him." Those who were
crucified with him insulted him.
Mar
15:33 When the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the
whole land until the ninth hour.
Mar
15:34 At the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying,
"Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" which is, being
interpreted, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"
Mar
15:35 Some of those who stood by, when they heard it, said, "Behold,
he is calling Elijah."
Mar
15:36 One ran, and filling a sponge full of vinegar, put it on a
reed, and gave it to him to drink, saying, "Let him be. Let's
see whether Elijah comes to take him down."
Mar
15:37 Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and gave up the spirit.
Mar
15:38 The veil of the temple was torn in two from the top to the
bottom.
Mar
15:39 When the centurion, who stood by opposite him, saw that he
cried out like this and breathed his last, he said, "Truly this
man was the Son of God!"
Mar
15:40 There were also women watching from afar, among whom were both
Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses,
and Salome;
Mar
15:41 who, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and served him; and
many other women who came up with him to Jerusalem.
Mar
15:42 When evening had now come, because it was the Preparation Day,
that is, the day before the Sabbath,
Mar
15:43 Joseph of Arimathaea, a prominent council member who also
himself was looking for the Kingdom of God, came. He boldly went in
to Pilate, and asked for Jesus' body.
Mar
15:44 Pilate marveled if he were already dead; and summoning the
centurion, he asked him whether he had been dead long.
Mar
15:45 When he found out from the centurion, he granted the body to
Joseph.
Mar
15:46 He bought a linen cloth, and taking him down, wound him in the
linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb which had been cut out of a rock.
He rolled a stone against the door of the tomb.
Mar
15:47 Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother of Joses, saw where he was
laid.

Mark 16
Mar
16:1 When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother
of James, and Salome, bought spices, that they might come and anoint
him.
Mar
16:2 Very early on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb
when the sun had risen.
Mar
16:3 They were saying among themselves, "Who will roll away the
stone from the door of the tomb for us?"
Mar
16:4 for it was very big. Looking up, they saw that the stone was
rolled back.
Mar
16:5 Entering into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the
right side, dressed in a white robe, and they were amazed.
Mar
16:6 He said to them, "Don't be amazed. You seek Jesus, the
Nazarene, who has been crucified. He has risen. He is not here.
Behold, the place where they laid him!
Mar
16:7 But go, tell his disciples and Peter, 'He goes before you into
Galilee. There you will see him, as he said to you.' "
Mar
16:8 They went out, and fled from the tomb, for trembling and
astonishment had come on them. They said nothing to anyone; for they
were afraid.
Mar
16:9 Now when he had risen early on the first day of the week, he
appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven
demons.
Mar
16:10 She went and told those who had been with him, as they mourned
and wept.
Mar
16:11 When they heard that he was alive, and had been seen by her,
they disbelieved.
Mar
16:12 After these things he was revealed in another form to two of
them, as they walked, on their way into the country.
Mar
16:13 They went away and told it to the rest. They didn't believe
them, either.
Mar
16:14 Afterward he was revealed to the eleven themselves as they sat
at the table, and he rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of
heart, because they didn't believe those who had seen him after he
had risen.
Mar
16:15 He said to them, "Go into all the world, and preach the
Good News to the whole creation.
Mar
16:16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who
disbelieves will be condemned.
Mar
16:17 These signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they
will cast out demons; they will speak with new languages;
Mar
16:18 they will take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly
thing, it will in no way hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick,
and they will recover."
Mar
16:19 So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was
received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.
Mar
16:20 They went out, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with
them, and confirming the word by the signs that followed. Amen.
