\subsection{John 19}
\subsubsection{Pilate Tries to Release Jesus}
\lettrine[lraise=0]{T}{hen} therefore Pilate took Jesus and flogged him.
\VS{2} And the soldiers
having woven [a] crown from thorns placed it upon his head and put [a] purple robe
around him,
\VS{3} and they were coming to him and saying: Hail king of the
Jews, and they gave him blows.
\VS{4} And Pilate again went out and says to
them: Behold I bring him out, in order that you know that I find nothing
blameworthy in him.
\VS{5} So Jesus came out, wearing the thorny crown and
the purple robe. And he says to them: Behold the man.
\VS{6} When therefore
the chief-priests and the officers saw him, they cried out saying: Crucify
him, crucify him! Pilate says to them: You take him and crucify him, for I
found in him no blame.
\VS{7} The Jews answered him: We have law, and
according to the law he ought to die, because he makes himself son of God.
\VS{8} When therefore Pilate heard this word, he feared greatly,
\VS{9} and
went in to the Praetorium again and says to Jesus: From where are you? But
Jesus did not give him answer.
\VS{10} Pilate therefore says to him: To me
do you not speak? Do you not know that I have authority to release you and I
have authority to crucify you?
\VS{11} Jesus answered: You have \negd{no} authority over me unless it was given to you from above. Because of
this the [one] having delivered me up has greater sin.
\VS{12} From this Pilate
was seeking to release him; but the Jews cried out saying: If you release
this man, you are no friend of Caesar; everyone making himself king opposes
Caesar.
\VS{13} Pilate therefore having heard these words brought Jesus out
and sat upon the judgment seat in the place called Lithostrotos, but in
Hebrew Gabatha.
\VS{14} Now it was the preparation of the Passover, it was
[about] the sixth\footnote{approx. noon} hour, and he says to the Jews: Behold your
king.
\VS{15} Those therefore cried out: Take him away, take him away,
crucify him! Pilate says to them: Shall I crucify your king? The
chief-priests answered: We have no king but Caesar.
\VS{16} Then he therefore delivered him up to them in order that he be crucified.
They therefore took Jesus,
\VS{17} and taking up on himself the cross he went out to
that being called place of the skull, which is called
in Hebrew Golgotha, \VS{18} where they crucified him, and with him two
others on each side.
\VS{19} Now Pilate also wrote [an] inscription and placed [it] upon the cross.
Now it was written: Jesus the Nazarene the king of the Jews.
\VS{20} Many of the Jews therefore read the inscription, because the
place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in
Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.
\VS{21} The chief-priests therefore were
saying to Pilate: Do not write: the king of the Jews, but that: This [one] said:
I am the king of the Jews.
\VS{22} Pilate answered: What I have written I
have written.
\VS{23} The soldiers therefore, when they crucified Jesus,
took his garments, and made four parts, to each soldier [a] part, and the
tunic. Now the tunic was seamless, woven from above throughout.
\VS{24} They
said therefore to each other, Let us cast lots concerning whose it will be,
in order that the scripture be fulfilled\footnote{Ps.22:18}:
\begin{verse}
They divided my garments to themselves, \\
And upon my clothing they threw lots.
\end{verse}
The soldiers therefore indeed did these [things].
\VS{25} Now his mother and the
sister of his mother, Maria the wife of Klopas and Maria the Magdalene stood
beside Jesus' cross.
\VS{26} Jesus therefore seeing his mother and the
disciple whom he agape-loved standing beside [him], he says to his mother: Woman,
behold your son.
\VS{27} Then he says to the disciple: Behold your mother.
And from that hour the disciple received her for his own.
\subsubsection{Jesus's Death}
\VS{28} After this
Jesus knowing that already everything is fulfilled, in order that the
scripture be fulfilled, says: I thirst.
\VS{29} There lay [a] vessel full of
sour wine; placing hyssop around [a] sponge full of sour wine they brought it
to his mouth.
\VS{30} When therefore Jesus received the sour wine he said:
It is finished, and having bowed his head he gave up his spirit.
\VS{31} The Jews therefore, since it was the preparation, in order that the bodies not
remain upon the cross on the Sabbath, for it was the great day of that
Sabbath, asked\fnErotao{} Pilate that they may break their legs and be taken down.
\VS{32} The soldiers came therefore, and broke the legs of the first and of
the other crucified with him,
\VS{33} but having come upon Jesus, as they
saw that he has already died, did not break his legs,
\VS{34} but one of the
soldiers pierced [his] side with his spear, and there came out straightway blood
and water.
\VS{35} And the [one] having seen has witnessed, and his witness is
true, and that [one] knows that he speaks truth, in order that you also be
believing.
\VS{36} For these [things] came to pass in order that the scripture be
fulfilled\footnote{Ex.12:46}:
\begin{verse}
Not [a] bone of his was broken.
\end{verse}
\VS{37} And again another scripture says\footnote{Zech.12:10}:
\begin{verse}
They will look upon whom they have pierced.
\end{verse}
\subsubsection{Jesus's Burial}
\VS{38} Now after these [things] Joseph from Arimathea being [a] disciple of Jesus [in] secret on account of fear of the Jews, asked\fnErotao{} Pilate in order that he may
take Jesus body. And Pilate permitted him. He came therefore and took his
body.
\VS{39} Now Nicodemas also came, the [one] coming to him first by night,
bringing [a] mixture of myrrh and aloe [about] [a] litra\footnote{litra = 12 oz.} each.\footnote{A extraordinary amount of spices, fit for a kingly burial.}
\VS{40} He therefore took the body of Jesus and bound [it] in linen with the
spices, just as it is [the] custom with the Jews to be preparing for burial.
\VS{41} Now in the place where he was crucified there was [a] garden, and in
the garden [was a] new tomb in which \negd{no one} was yet placed.
\VS{42} There, on account of the Preparation of the Jews, because it was near, they
therefore placed Jesus.
