\subsection{Mark 15}
\subsubsection{Jesus Brought Before Pilate}
\VS{1} And straightway early after they prepared counsel, the high priests with the 
elders and scribes and all the Sanhedrin, having bound Jesus, [they] led [him] away and gave him over to Pilate. 
\VS{2} And Pilate questioned him, Are you the king 
of the Jews? He answers him saying: You say [it]. 
\VS{3} And the chief priests 
were accusing much of him. 
\VS{4} And Pilate again asked him saying: Don't 
you answer anything? Behold they accuse much [of you]. 
\VS{5} But Jesus no longer 
answered anything, so that Pilate was being amazed. 

\subsubsection{Jesus and Barabbas}
\VS{6} Now at [the] festival he 
used to release to them one prisoner that they were requesting. 
\VS{7} And [there] was [one] being called Barabbas having been bound 
with rebels, which in the revolt had committed murder. 
\VS{8} And the crowd having come up began to be asking\fnAiteo{} just as he used to do for them. 
\VS{9} Then Pilate answered them 
saying: Do you wish I release to you the king of the Jews? 
\VS{10} For he 
was knowing that because of jealousy the chief priests had handed him over. 
\VS{11} But the chief priests had incited the crowd that he release to them 
Barabbas instead. 
\VS{12} And again Pilate answering was saying to them: 
What therefore should I do [with respect to] whom you call the King of Jews? 
\VS{13} And they 
again screamed: Crucify him! 
\VS{14} Then Pilate was saying to them, Why? 
What evil did he do? But they screamed even more: Crucify him! 
\VS{15} And 
Pilate wishing the crowd to be satisfied, he released to them Barabbas, and 
handed over Jesus after [he was] flogged that he be crucified. 

\subsubsection{Jesus is Mocked}
\VS{16} Now the 
soldiers lead him away into the courtyard, which is [the] Praetorium, and they 
call together the whole cohort. 
\VS{17} And they dress him [in] purple and put 
on him [a] crown having woven thorns. 
\VS{18} And they began [to be] greeting him, 
Hail, king of the Jews! 
\VS{19} And they were beating his head with [a] staff 
and were spitting on him, and kneeling they were worshipping him. 
\VS{20} And when they ridiculed him they stripped off him the purple and put his 
robe on him. 

\subsubsection{The Crucifixion}
\VS{21} And they lead him out that they may crucify him. And 
they compel [one] passing by, a certain Simon [the] Cyrenian coming from [the] countryside, 
the father of Alexander and Rufus, that he bear his cross. 
\VS{22} And they lead him up to the place Golgotha, 
which is being translated Place of the Skull. 
\VS{23} And they were giving to him wine treated with myrrh that 
however he did not take. 
\VS{24} And they crucify him, and they divide his 
robe, throwing lots upon it who would take what. 
\VS{25} Now it was [the] third 
hour and they crucified him. 
\VS{26} And the superscription of his 
accusation was written, THE KING OF THE JEWS. 
\VS{27} And two 
insurrectionists are crucified with him, one on his left. 
\VS{28} And the 
scripture was fulfilled, the [one] saying: And with the lawless is he 
reckoned\footnote{include vs. 28: \koine{} \vulgate{}; omit vs. 28: \sinaiticus{}BD}. 
\VS{29} 
And those passing by were slandering him shaking their heads and saying: 
Aha! The [one] destroying the temple and building [it] in three days, 
\VS{30} save 
yourself by coming down from the cross. 
\VS{31} Likewise also the chief 
priests ridiculing among one another with the scribes were saying: He saved 
others, himself he is not able to save! 
\VS{32} The Anointed\fnChristos{} [One] the king of 
Israel, let him come down\fnImperative{} now from the cross, that we 
may see and believe! And those being crucified with him were reproaching 
him. 

\subsubsection{Jesus's Death}
\VS{33} And when the sixth hour came to pass, darkness came on all the 
land until the ninth hour. 
\VS{34} And in the ninth hour Jesus cried out 
with [a] loud voice: Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachtani, which is being 
translated: My God, my God, why have you abandoned me? 
\VS{35} And certain 
[ones] standing by who heard were saying: Behold he calls Elijah. 
\VS{36} And 
someone having run, having filled [a] sponge [with] sour wine, having put [it] on [a] staff, was giving it to drink, saying: Wait, let us see if Elijah comes to 
take him down. 
\VS{37} But Jesus, uttering [a] great cry, breathed out his last. 
\VS{38} And the veil of the temple was rent in two from top to bottom. 
\VS{39} And when the centurion, the [one] having been present 
opposite him, saw that having cried out\footnote{``having cried out'' 
DW\koine{} \vulgate{}; omit: \sinaiticus{}B} he thus 
breathed out his last, he said: Truly this was the son of God. 
\VS{40} And there were also women observing from afar, among whom [were] 
Mary Magdalene, and Mary, mother of James the younger and Joses, and Salome 
\VS{41} who, when he 
was in Galilee, were following him and serving him, also many others who 
came up to Jerusalem with him.

\subsubsection{Jesus's Burial} 
\VS{42} And having already become evening, 
[and] since it was [the] day of preparation, which is the day before [a] Sabbath, 
\VS{43} Joseph of Arimathea having come, [a] respected member of the council, who also 
himself was looking for the kingdom of God, having taken it upon himself, 
went in to Pilate and requested\fnAiteo{} the body of Jesus. 
\VS{44} And Pilate 
wondered if he had already died, and having summoned the centurion, asked if 
he already died. 
\VS{45} And confirming [it] from the centurion, he presented 
the body to Joseph. 
\VS{46} And when they bought muslin and took [him] down they 
wrapped him with the muslin and placed him in [a] sepulcher that had been hewn 
out of rock, and rolled [a] stone up to the door of the sepulcher. 
\VS{47} And 
Mary Magdalene and Mary the [mother] of Joses were observing where he had been 
placed.
