1 Entonces Pilato tomó a Jesús y mandó que lo azotaran.
1 So Pilate then took Jesus and flogged him.
2 Los soldados hicieron una corona de espinas, se la pusieron a Jesús en la cabeza y también le pusieron un manto de color rojo oscuro.
2 The soldiers twisted thorns into a crown and put it on his head, and dressed him in a purple garment.
3 Mientras se acercaban a pegarle en la cara, le gritaban: ―¡Viva el rey de los judíos!
3 They kept saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and they kept slapping him.
4 Pilato volvió a salir y les dijo a los judíos: ―Aquí está. Lo saqué para que sepan que no creo que sea culpable de nada.
4 Then Pilate went out again, and said to them, “Behold, I bring him out to you, that you may know that I find no basis for a charge against him.”
5 Cuando sacaron a Jesús, llevaba puestos la corona de espinas y el manto de color rojo. Pilato les dijo: ―¡Aquí está el hombre!
5 Jesus therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. Pilate said to them, “Behold, the man!”
6 Al verlo, los jefes de los sacerdotes y los guardias gritaron: ―¡Crucifícalo! ¡Crucifícalo! Pilato les respondió: ―Llévenselo y crucifíquenlo ustedes. Yo no creo que sea culpable de nada.
6 When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they shouted, saying, “Crucify! Crucify!” Pilate said to them, “Take him yourselves and crucify him, for I find no basis for a charge against him.”
7 Los judíos le dijeron: ―Nosotros tenemos una ley, y según esa ley tiene que morir, pues se ha hecho pasar por el Hijo de Dios.
7 The Jews answered him, “We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.”
8 Cuando Pilato oyó esto, sintió miedo.
8 When therefore Pilate heard this saying, he was more afraid.
9 Entró una vez más en el palacio y le preguntó a Jesús: ―¿De dónde eres tú? Pero Jesús no le respondió.
9 He entered into the Praetorium again, and said to Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus gave him no answer.
10 Pilato le dijo: ―¿No me vas a hablar? ¿No te das cuenta de que tengo poder para ponerte en libertad o para mandar que te crucifiquen?
10 Pilate therefore said to him, “Aren’t you speaking to me? Don’t you know that I have power to release you and have power to crucify you?”
11 Jesús le contestó: ―No tendrías ningún poder sobre mí si no se te hubiera dado de arriba. Por eso el que me entregó a ti, es culpable de un pecado más grande.
11 Jesus answered, “You would have no power at all against me, unless it were given to you from above. Therefore he who delivered me to you has greater sin.”
12 Desde ese momento Pilato trató de poner en libertad a Jesús, pero los judíos gritaban: ―Si dejas en libertad a ese hombre, no eres amigo del emperador. Cualquiera que quiera ser rey, es enemigo del emperador.
12 At this, Pilate was seeking to release him, but the Jews cried out, saying, “If you release this man, you aren’t Caesar’s friend! Everyone who makes himself a king speaks against Caesar!”
13 Al oír esto, Pilato llevó afuera a Jesús y se sentó en el tribunal, en un lugar llamado Gabatá que en arameo significa el Empedrado.
13 When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called “The Pavement”, but in Hebrew, “Gabbatha.”
14 Era cerca del mediodía, un día antes de la Pascua. Pilato les dijo a los judíos: ―Aquí tienen a su rey.
14 Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, at about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, “Behold, your King!”
15 Ellos gritaron: ―¡Fuera! ¡Fuera! ¡Crucifícalo! Pilato les respondió: ―¿Creen que voy a crucificar a su rey? Los jefes de los sacerdotes contestaron: ―Nuestro único rey es el emperador romano.
15 They cried out, “Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Shall I crucify your King?” The chief priests answered, “We have no king but Caesar!”
16 Entonces Pilato se lo entregó para que lo crucificaran, y los soldados se lo llevaron.
16 So then he delivered him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led him away.
17 Jesús salió cargando su propia cruz, iba hacia el Gólgota, que en arameo significa de la Calavera.
17 He went out, bearing his cross, to the place called “The Place of a Skull”, which is called in Hebrew, “Golgotha”,
18 Allí lo crucificaron junto a otros dos, uno a cada lado, y Jesús en medio.
18 where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the middle.
19 Pilato mandó que pusieran un letrero sobre la cruz. En este estaba escrito: «jesús de nazaret, rey de los judíos».
19 Pilate wrote a title also, and put it on the cross. There was written, “JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
20 Muchos de los judíos lo leyeron, porque el lugar donde crucificaron a Jesús estaba cerca de la ciudad. El letrero estaba escrito en arameo, latín y griego.
20 Therefore many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.
21 Los jefes de los sacerdotes judíos le dijeron a Pilato: ―No escribas “Rey de los judíos”, sino “Él dice que es rey de los judíos”.
21 The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, “Don’t write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but, ‘he said, “I am King of the Jews.”’”
22 Pilato les respondió: ―Lo que he escrito, escrito se queda.
22 Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
23 Después de que los soldados crucificaron a Jesús, tomaron su manto y lo partieron en cuatro pedazos, uno para cada uno de ellos. Tomaron también su túnica, que era de una sola pieza, sin costura, tejida de arriba abajo.
23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
24 Los soldados se dijeron unos a otros: ―No la dividamos. Mejor echemos suertes para ver a quién le toca. Y así lo hicieron, y de esta forma se cumplió la Escritura que dice: «Se repartieron mi manto, y sobre mi túnica echaron suertes».
24 Then they said to one another, “Let’s not tear it, but cast lots for it to decide whose it will be,” that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which says, “They parted my garments among them. They cast lots for my clothing.” Therefore the soldiers did these things.
25 Junto a la cruz de Jesús estaban su madre, la hermana de su madre, María la esposa de Cleofas, y María Magdalena.
25 But standing by Jesus’ cross were his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.
26 Cuando Jesús vio a su madre, y junto a ella al discípulo a quien él quería mucho, dijo a su madre: ―Mujer, ahí tienes a tu hijo.
26 Therefore when Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing there, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son!”
27 Luego, le dijo al discípulo: ―Ahí tienes a tu madre. Desde ese momento, ese discípulo la recibió en su casa.
27 Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” From that hour, the disciple took her to his own home.
28 Después de esto, como Jesús sabía que ya todo había terminado, y para que se cumpliera la Escritura, dijo: ―Tengo sed.
28 After this, Jesus, seeing that all things were now finished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I am thirsty!”
29 Había allí un jarro lleno de vinagre; así que empaparon una esponja en el vinagre, la pusieron en una caña y se la acercaron a la boca.
29 Now a vessel full of vinegar was set there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop, and held it at his mouth.
30 Al probar Jesús el vinagre, dijo: ―Todo está cumplido. Luego inclinó la cabeza y entregó el espíritu.
30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, “It is finished!” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
31 Era un día antes de la Pascua. Los judíos no querían que los cuerpos siguieran colgados en la cruz en sábado, porque este era un día muy solemne. Por eso le pidieron a Pilato ordenar que les quebraran las piernas a los crucificados y bajaran sus cuerpos.
31 Therefore the Jews, because it was the Preparation Day, so that the bodies wouldn’t remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken away.
32 Los soldados fueron y le quebraron las piernas al primer hombre que habían crucificado con Jesús, y luego al otro.
32 Therefore the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with him;
33 Y cuando se acercaron a Jesús, se dieron cuenta de que ya estaba muerto, por eso no le quebraron las piernas.
33 but when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they didn’t break his legs.
34 Pero uno de los soldados le atravesó el costado con una lanza, y en ese momento le salió sangre y agua.
34 However, one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.
35 El que dice esto es el que lo vio, y lo que dice es verdad. Él sabe que dice la verdad, para que también ustedes crean.
35 He who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, that you may believe.
36 Estas cosas sucedieron para que se cumpliera la Escritura: «No le quebraron ningún hueso»
36 For these things happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled, “A bone of him will not be broken.”
37 y, como dice en otra parte de la Escritura: «Mirarán al que traspasaron».
37 Again another Scripture says, “They will look on him whom they pierced.”
38 Después de esto, José de Arimatea le pidió a Pilato el cuerpo de Jesús. José era discípulo de Jesús, aunque en secreto porque le tenía miedo a los judíos. Pilato le dio permiso y él se llevó el cuerpo.
38 After these things, Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked of Pilate that he might take away Jesus’ body. Pilate gave him permission. He came therefore and took away his body.
39 También Nicodemo, el que había visitado a Jesús de noche, llegó con unos treinta y cuatro kilos de una mezcla de mirra y áloe.
39 Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred Roman pounds.
40 Entre los dos envolvieron el cuerpo de Jesús con vendas empapadas en las especias aromáticas. Así era la costumbre judía de sepultar a los muertos.
40 So they took Jesus’ body, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury.
41 En el lugar donde crucificaron a Jesús había un huerto, y en el huerto un sepulcro nuevo en el que todavía no habían sepultado a nadie.
41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden. In the garden was a new tomb in which no man had ever yet been laid.
42 Como estaba por empezar el sábado, y el sepulcro estaba cerca, pusieron allí a Jesús.
42 Then, because of the Jews’ Preparation Day (for the tomb was near at hand), they laid Jesus there.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
On the Jews crying out that they did not wish Jesus to be released unto them at the passover, but Barabbas the robber; not the Saviour, but the murderer; not the Giver of life, but the destroyer,--"then Pilate took Jesus and scourged Him." We must believe that Pilate acted thus for no other reason than that the Jews, glutted with …

Successes have terrible power to cast down or draw aside those who take not heed. Thus the Jews, who at first enjoyed the influence of God, sought the law of royalty from the Gentiles, and in the wilderness after the manna remembered the onions.

… no means at rest, He saith to him: "To thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him."

… very nature of His death, that is, the height of the cross, is understood by the single words "Thou are gone up."

Or at least His burial is to be understood, in which He lay down sleeping, …
