WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Then, when morning arrived, all the leaders of the priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus, so that they might deliver him to death.
1 Y VENIDA la mañana, entraron en consejo todos los príncipes de los sacerdotes, y los ancianos del pueblo, contra Jesús, para entregarle á muerte.
1 Now when morning had come, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death.
2 And they led him, bound, and handed him over to Pontius Pilate, the procurator.
2 Y le llevaron atado, y le entregaron á Poncio Pilato presidente.
2 They bound him, led him away, and delivered him up to Pontius Pilate, the governor.
3 Then Judas, who betrayed him, seeing that he had been condemned, regretting his conduct, brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the leaders of the priests and the elders,
3 Entonces Judas, el que le había entregado, viendo que era condenado, volvió arrepentido las treinta [piezas] de plata á los príncipes de los sacerdotes y á los ancianos,
3 Then Judas, who betrayed him, when he saw that Jesus was condemned, felt remorse, and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,
4 saying, “I have sinned in betraying just blood.” But they said to him: “What is that to us? See to it yourself.”
4 Diciendo: Yo he pecado entregando la sangre inocente. Mas ellos dijeron: ¿Qué [se nos da] á nosotros? Viéras[lo] tú.
4 saying, “I have sinned in that I betrayed innocent blood.” But they said, “What is that to us? You see to it.”
5 And throwing down the pieces of silver in the temple, he departed. And going out, he hanged himself with a snare.
5 Y arrojando [las piezas] de plata en el templo, partióse; y fué, y se ahorcó.
5 He threw down the pieces of silver in the sanctuary and departed. Then he went away and hanged himself.
6 But the leaders of the priests, having taken up the pieces of silver, said, “It is not lawful to put them into the temple offerings, because it is the price of blood.”
6 Y los príncipes de los sacerdotes, tomando [las piezas] de plata, dijeron: No es lícito echarlas en el tesoro de los dones, porque es precio de sangre.
6 The chief priests took the pieces of silver and said, “It’s not lawful to put them into the treasury, since it is the price of blood.”
7 Then, having taken counsel, they bought the potter’s field with it, as a burying place for sojourners.
7 Mas habido consejo, compraron con ellas el campo del alfarero, por sepultura para los extranjeros.
7 They took counsel, and bought the potter’s field with them to bury strangers in.
8 For this reason, that field is called Haceldama, that is, ‘The Field of Blood,’ even to this very day.
8 Por lo cual fué llamado aquel campo, Campo de sangre, hasta el día de hoy.
8 Therefore that field has been called “The Field of Blood” to this day.
9 Then what was spoken by the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled, saying, “And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of the one being appraised, whom they appraised before the sons of Israel,
9 Entonces se cumplió lo que fué dicho por el profeta Jeremías, que dijo: Y tomaron las treinta [piezas] de plata, precio del apreciado, que fué apreciado por los hijos de Israel;
9 Then that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying, “They took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him upon whom a price had been set, whom some of the children of Israel priced,
10 and they gave it for the potter’s field, just as the Lord appointed to me.”
10 Y las dieron para el campo del alfarero, como me ordenó el Señor.
10 and they gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord commanded me.”
11 Now Jesus stood before the procurator, and the procurator questioned him, saying, “You are the king of the Jews?” Jesus said to him, “You are saying so.”
11 Y Jesús estuvo delante del presidente; y el presidente le preguntó, diciendo: ¿Eres tú el Rey de los judíos? Y Jesús le dijo: Tú [lo] dices.
11 Now Jesus stood before the governor; and the governor asked him, saying, “Are you the King of the Jews?” Jesus said to him, “So you say.”
12 And when he was accused by the leaders of the priests and the elders, he responded nothing.
12 Y siendo acusado por los príncipes de los sacerdotes, y por los ancianos, nada respondió.
12 When he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.
13 Then Pilate said to him, “Do you not hear how much testimony they speak against you?”
13 Pilato entonces le dice: ¿No oyes cuántas cosas testifican contra ti?
13 Then Pilate said to him, “Don’t you hear how many things they testify against you?”
14 And he did not respond any word to him, so that the procurator wondered greatly.
14 Y no le respondió ni una palabra; de tal manera que el presidente se maravillaba mucho.
14 He gave him no answer, not even one word, so that the governor marveled greatly.
15 Now on the solemn day, the procurator was accustomed to release to the people one prisoner, whomever they wished.
15 Y en el día de la fiesta acostumbraba el presidente soltar al pueblo un preso, cual quisiesen.
15 Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to release to the multitude one prisoner whom they desired.
16 And at that time, he had a notorious prisoner, who was called Barabbas.
16 Y tenían entonces un preso famoso que se llamaba Barrabás.
16 They had then a notable prisoner called Barabbas.
17 Therefore, having been gathered together, Pilate said to them, “Who is it that you want me to release to you: Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?”
17 Y juntos ellos, les dijo Pilato: ¿Cuál queréis que os suelte? ¿á Barrabás, ó á Jesús que se dice el Cristo?
17 When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?”
18 For he knew that it was out of envy they had handed him over.
18 Porque sabía que por envidia le habían entregado.
18 For he knew that because of envy they had delivered him up.
19 But as he was sitting in the place for the tribunal, his wife sent to him, saying: “It is nothing to you, and he is just. For I have experienced many things today through a vision for his sake.”
19 Y estando él sentado en el tribunal, su mujer envió á él, diciendo: No tengas que ver con aquel justo; porque hoy he padecido muchas cosas en sueños por causa de él.
19 While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, “Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered many things today in a dream because of him.”
20 But the leaders of the priests and the elders persuaded the people, so that they would ask for Barabbas, and so that Jesus would perish.
20 Mas los príncipes de los sacerdotes y los ancianos, persuadieron al pueblo que pidiese á Barrabás, y á Jesús matase.
20 Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes to ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus.
21 Then, in response, the procurator said to them, “Which of the two do you want to be released to you?” But they said to him, “Barabbas.”
21 Y respondiendo el presidente les dijo: ¿Cuál de los dos queréis que os suelte? Y ellos dijeron: A Barrabás.
21 But the governor answered them, “Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” They said, “Barabbas!”
22 Pilate said to them, “Then what shall I do about Jesus, who is called Christ?” They all said, “Let him be crucified.”
22 Pilato les dijo: ¿Qué pues haré de Jesús que se dice el Cristo? Dícenle todos: Sea crucificado.
22 Pilate said to them, “What then shall I do to Jesus who is called Christ?” They all said to him, “Let him be crucified!”
23 The procurator said to them, “But what evil has he done?” But they cried out all the more, saying, “Let him be crucified.”
23 Y el presidente [les] dijo: Pues ¿qué mal ha hecho? Mas ellos gritaban más, diciendo: Sea crucificado.
23 But the governor said, “Why? What evil has he done?” But they cried out exceedingly, saying, “Let him be crucified!”
24 Then Pilate, seeing that he was able to accomplish nothing, but that a greater tumult was occurring, taking water, washed his hands in the sight of the people, saying: “I am innocent of the blood of this just man. See to it yourselves.”
24 Y viendo Pilato que nada adelantaba, antes se hacía más alboroto, tomando agua se lavó las manos delante del pueblo, diciendo: Inocente soy yo de la sangre de este justo: veréis[lo] vosotros.
24 So when Pilate saw that nothing was being gained, but rather that a disturbance was starting, he took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, “I am innocent of the blood of this righteous person. You see to it.”
25 And the entire people responded by saying, “May his blood be upon us and upon our children.”
25 Y respondiendo todo el pueblo, dijo: Su sangre [sea] sobre nosotros, y sobre nuestros hijos.
25 All the people answered, “May his blood be on us and on our children!”
26 Then he released Barabbas to them. But Jesus, having been scourged, he handed over to them, so that he would be crucified.
26 Entonces les soltó á Barrabás: y habiendo azotado á Jesús, le entregó para ser crucificado.
26 Then he released Barabbas to them, but Jesus he flogged and delivered to be crucified.
27 Then the soldiers of the procurator, taking Jesus up to the praetorium, gathered the entire cohort around him.
27 Entonces los soldados del presidente llevaron á Jesús al pretorio, y juntaron á él toda la cuadrilla;
27 Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium, and gathered the whole garrison together against him.
28 And stripping him, they put a scarlet cloak around him.
28 Y desnudándole, le echaron encima un manto de grana;
28 They stripped him and put a scarlet robe on him.
29 And plaiting a crown of thorns, they placed it on his head, with a reed in his right hand. And genuflecting before him, they mocked him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews.”
29 Y pusieron sobre su cabeza una corona tejida de espinas, y una caña en su mano derecha; é hincando la rodilla delante de él, le burlaban, diciendo: ¡Salve, Rey de los Judíos!
29 They braided a crown of thorns and put it on his head, and a reed in his right hand; and they kneeled down before him and mocked him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
30 And spitting on him, they took the reed and struck his head.
30 Y escupiendo en él, tomaron la caña, y le herían en la cabeza.
30 They spat on him, and took the reed and struck him on the head.
31 And after they had mocked him, they stripped him of the cloak, and clothed him with his own garments, and they led him away to crucify him.
31 Y después que le hubieron escarnecido, le desnudaron el manto, y le vistieron de sus vestidos, y le llevaron para crucificarle.
31 When they had mocked him, they took the robe off him, and put his clothes on him, and led him away to crucify him.
32 But as they were going out, they came upon a man of Cyrene, named Simon, whom they compelled to take up his cross.
32 Y saliendo, hallaron á un Cireneo, que se llamaba Simón: á éste cargaron para que llevase su cruz.
32 As they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name, and they compelled him to go with them, that he might carry his cross.
33 And they arrived at the place which is called Golgotha, which is the place of Calvary.
33 Y como llegaron al lugar que se llama Gólgotha, que es dicho, El lugar de la calavera,
33 When they came to a place called “Golgotha”, that is to say, “The place of a skull,”
34 And they gave him wine to drink, mixed with gall. And when he had tasted it, he refused to drink it.
34 Le dieron á beber vinagre mezclado con hiel; y gustando, no quiso beber[lo].
34 they gave him sour wine to drink mixed with gall. When he had tasted it, he would not drink.
35 Then, after they had crucified him, they divided his garments, casting lots, in order to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet, saying: “They divided my garments among them, and over my vestment they cast lots.”
35 Y después que le hubieron crucificado, repartieron sus vestidos, echando suertes: para que se cumpliese lo que fué dicho por el profeta: Se repartieron mis vestidos, y sobre mi ropa echaron suertes.
35 When they had crucified him, they divided his clothing among them, casting lots,
36 And sitting down, they observed him.
36 Y sentados le guardaban allí.
36 and they sat and watched him there.
37 And they set his accusation above his head, written as: This is Jesus, king of the Jews.
37 Y pusieron sobre su cabeza su causa escrita: ESTE ES JESUS EL REY DE LOS JUDIOS.
37 They set up over his head the accusation against him written, “THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
38 Then two robbers were crucified with him: one on the right and one on the left.
38 Entonces crucificaron con él dos ladrones, uno á la derecha, y otro á la izquierda.
38 Then there were two robbers crucified with him, one on his right hand and one on the left.
39 But those passing by blasphemed him, shaking their heads,
39 Y los que pasaban, le decían injurias, meneando sus cabezas,
39 Those who passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads
40 and saying: “Ah, so you would destroy the temple of God and in three days rebuild it! Save your own self. If you are the Son of God, descend from the cross.”
40 Y diciendo: Tú, el que derribas el templo, y en tres días lo reedificas, sálvate á ti mismo: si eres Hijo de Dios, desciende de la cruz.
40 and saying, “You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save yourself! If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross!”
41 And similarly, the leaders of the priests, with the scribes and the elders, mocking him, said:
41 De esta manera también los príncipes de los sacerdotes, escarneciendo con los escribas y los Fariseos y los ancianos, decían:
41 Likewise the chief priests also mocking with the scribes, the Pharisees, and the elders, said,
42 “He saved others; he cannot save himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him descend now from the cross, and we will believe in him.
42 A otros salvó, á sí mismo no puede salvar: si es el Rey de Israel, descienda ahora de la cruz, y creeremos en él.
42 “He saved others, but he can’t save himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him come down from the cross now, and we will believe in him.
43 He trusted in God; so now, let God free him, if he wills him. For he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ”
43 Confió en Dios: líbrele ahora si le quiere: porque ha dicho: Soy Hijo de Dios.
43 He trusts in God. Let God deliver him now, if he wants him; for he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”
44 Then, the robbers who were crucified with him also reproached him with the very same thing.
44 Lo mismo también le zaherían los ladrones que estaban crucificados con él.
44 The robbers also who were crucified with him cast on him the same reproach.
45 Now from the sixth hour, there was darkness over the entire earth, even until the ninth hour.
45 Y desde la hora de sexta fueron tinieblas sobre toda la tierra hasta la hora de nona.
45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.
46 And about the ninth hour, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying: “Eli, Eli, lamma sabacthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?”
46 Y cerca de la hora de nona, Jesús exclamó con grande voz, diciendo: Eli, Eli, ¿lama sabachtani? Esto es: Dios mío, Dios mío, ¿por qué me has desamparado?
46 About the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lima sabachthani?” That is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
47 Then certain ones who were standing and listening there said, “This man calls upon Elijah.”
47 Y algunos de los que estaban allí, oyéndolo, decían: A Elías llama éste.
47 Some of them who stood there, when they heard it, said, “This man is calling Elijah.”
48 And one of them, running quickly, took a sponge and filled it with vinegar, and he set it on a reed and he gave it to him to drink.
48 Y luego, corriendo uno de ellos, tomó una esponja, y la hinchió de vinagre, y poniéndola en una caña, dábale de beber.
48 Immediately one of them ran and took a sponge, filled it with vinegar, put it on a reed, and gave him a drink.
49 Yet truly, the others said, “Wait. Let us see whether Elijah will come to free him.”
49 Y los otros decían: Deja, veamos si viene Elías á librarle.
49 The rest said, “Let him be. Let’s see whether Elijah comes to save him.”
50 Then Jesus, crying out again with a loud voice, gave up his life.
50 Mas Jesús, habiendo otra vez exclamado con grande voz, dió el espíritu.
50 Jesus cried again with a loud voice, and yielded up his spirit.
51 And behold, the veil of the temple was torn into two parts, from top to bottom. And the earth was shaken, and the rocks were split apart.
51 Y he aquí, el velo del templo se rompió en dos, de alto á bajo: y la tierra tembló, y las piedras se hendieron;
51 Behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from the top to the bottom. The earth quaked and the rocks were split.
52 And the tombs were opened. And many bodies of the saints, which had been sleeping, arose.
52 Y abriéronse los sepulcros, y muchos cuerpos de santos que habían dormido, se levantaron;
52 The tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised;
53 And going out from the tombs, after his resurrection, they went into the holy city, and they appeared to many.
53 Y salidos de los sepulcros, después de su resurrección, vinieron á la santa ciudad, y aparecieron á muchos.
53 and coming out of the tombs after his resurrection, they entered into the holy city and appeared to many.
54 Now the centurion and those who were with him, guarding Jesus, having seen the earthquake and the things that were done, were very fearful, saying: “Truly, this was the Son of God.”
54 Y el centurión, y los que estaban con él guardando á Jesús, visto el terremoto, y las cosas que habían sido hechas, temieron en gran manera, diciendo: Verdaderamente Hijo de Dios era éste.
54 Now the centurion and those who were with him watching Jesus, when they saw the earthquake and the things that were done, were terrified, saying, “Truly this was the Son of God!”
55 And in that place, there were many women, at a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to him.
55 Y estaban allí muchas mujeres mirando de lejos, las cuales habían seguido de Galilea á Jesús, sirviéndole:
55 Many women were there watching from afar, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, serving him.
56 Among these were Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
56 Entre las cuales estaban María Magdalena, y María la madre de Jacobo y de José, y la madre de los hijos de Zebedeo.
56 Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
57 Then, when evening had arrived, a certain wealthy man from Arimathea, named Joseph, arrived, who himself was also a disciple of Jesus.
57 Y como fué la tarde del día, vino un hombre rico de Arimatea, llamado José, el cual también había sido discípulo de Jesús.
57 When evening had come, a rich man from Arimathaea named Joseph, who himself was also Jesus’ disciple, came.
58 This man approached Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered the body to be released.
58 Este llegó á Pilato, y pidió el cuerpo de Jesús: entonces Pilato mandó que se le diese el cuerpo.
58 This man went to Pilate and asked for Jesus’ body. Then Pilate commanded the body to be given up.
59 And Joseph, taking the body, wrapped it in a clean finely-woven linen cloth,
59 Y tomando José el cuerpo, lo envolvió en una sábana limpia,
59 Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth
60 and he placed it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out of a rock. And he rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb, and he went away.
60 Y lo puso en su sepulcro nuevo, que había labrado en la peña: y revuelta una grande piedra á la puerta del sepulcro, se fué.
60 and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut out in the rock. Then he rolled a large stone against the door of the tomb, and departed.
61 Now Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were there, sitting opposite the sepulcher.
61 Y estaban allí María Magdalena, y la otra María, sentadas delante del sepulcro.
61 Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the tomb.
62 Then the next day, which is after the Preparation day, the leaders of the priests and the Pharisees went to Pilate together,
62 Y el siguiente día, que es después de la preparación, se juntaron los príncipes de los sacerdotes y los Fariseos á Pilato,
62 Now on the next day, which was the day after the Preparation Day, the chief priests and the Pharisees were gathered together to Pilate,
63 saying: “Lord, we have remembered that this seducer said, while he was still alive, ‘After three days, I will rise again.’
63 Diciendo: Señor, nos acordamos que aquel engañador dijo, viviendo aún: Después de tres días resucitaré.
63 saying, “Sir, we remember what that deceiver said while he was still alive: ‘After three days I will rise again.’
64 Therefore, order the sepulcher to be guarded until the third day, lest perhaps his disciples may come and steal him, and say to the people, ‘He has risen from the dead.’ And this last error would be worse than the first.”
64 Manda, pues, que se asegure el sepulcro hasta el día tercero; porque no vengan sus discípulos de noche, y le hurten, y digan al pueblo: Resucitó de los muertos. Y será el postrer error peor que el primero.
64 Command therefore that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest perhaps his disciples come at night and steal him away, and tell the people, ‘He is risen from the dead;’ and the last deception will be worse than the first.”
65 Pilate said to them: “You have a guard. Go, guard it as you know how.”
65 Y Pilato les dijo: Tenéis una guardia: id, aseguradlo como sabéis.
65 Pilate said to them, “You have a guard. Go, make it as secure as you can.”
66 Then, going out, they secured the sepulcher with guards, sealing the stone.
66 Y yendo ellos, aseguraron el sepulcro, sellando la piedra, con la guardia.
66 So they went with the guard and made the tomb secure, sealing the stone.

take for a witness Pilate himself, who gave sentence upon Him, saying, I find no fault in this Man: and when he gave Him up, and had washed his hands, he said, I am innocent of the blood of this just person.

He lays down His life, but He has power to take it again; and the veil is rent, for the mysterious doors of Heaven are opened; the rocks are cleft, the dead arise. He dies, but He gives life, and by His death destroys death.
