1 Muy temprano en la mañana, se reunieron los jefes de los sacerdotes, los ancianos, los maestros de la ley y el pleno del Consejo Supremo y tomaron una decisión. Ataron a Jesús, se lo llevaron y lo entregaron a Pilato.
1 Immediately in the morning the chief priests, with the elders, scribes, and the whole council, held a consultation, bound Jesus, carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate.
2 Pilato le preguntó: ―¿Eres tú el rey de los judíos? Él respondió: ―Tú mismo lo dices.
2 Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered, “So you say.”
3 Los jefes de los sacerdotes lo acusaban de muchas cosas.
3 The chief priests accused him of many things.
4 Pilato le preguntó otra vez: ―¿No me vas a contestar? Mira todas las cosas de las que te acusan.
4 Pilate again asked him, “Have you no answer? See how many things they testify against you!”
5 Pero ni aun así Jesús respondió, de modo que Pilato se quedó asombrado.
5 But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate marveled.
6 Pilato tenía la costumbre de soltar a un preso durante la fiesta, el que la gente pidiera.
6 Now at the feast he used to release to them one prisoner, whomever they asked of him.
7 Un hombre llamado Barrabás estaba preso junto con otros rebeldes por haber cometido un asesinato en una revuelta.
7 There was one called Barabbas, bound with his fellow insurgents, men who in the insurrection had committed murder.
8 La gente llegó y le pidió a Pilato que le concediera lo que acostumbraba.
8 The multitude, crying aloud, began to ask him to do as he always did for them.
9 Pilato respondió: ―¿Quieren que deje libre al rey de los judíos?
9 Pilate answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”
10 Les hizo esa pregunta porque se daba cuenta de que los jefes de los sacerdotes habían entregado a Jesús por envidia.
10 For he perceived that for envy the chief priests had delivered him up.
11 Pero estos incitaron a la gente para que Pilato dejara libre a Barrabás.
11 But the chief priests stirred up the multitude, that he should release Barabbas to them instead.
12 Pilato volvió a preguntar: ―¿Y qué voy a hacer con el que ustedes llaman el rey de los judíos?
12 Pilate again asked them, “What then should I do to him whom you call the King of the Jews?”
13 Ellos gritaron: ―¡Crucifícalo!
13 They cried out again, “Crucify him!”
14 Él les decía: ―¿Por qué? ¿Qué mal ha hecho? Pero ellos gritaron todavía más fuerte: ―¡Crucifícalo!
14 Pilate said to them, “Why, what evil has he done?” But they cried out exceedingly, “Crucify him!”
15 Como Pilato quería tener contenta a la gente, dejó en libertad a Barrabás; después mandó que azotaran a Jesús y lo entregó para que lo crucificaran.
15 Pilate, wishing to please the multitude, released Barabbas to them, and handed over Jesus, when he had flogged him, to be crucified.
16 Los soldados llevaron a Jesús al interior del palacio, al lugar llamado pretorio, y reunieron a toda la tropa.
16 The soldiers led him away within the court, which is the Praetorium; and they called together the whole cohort.
17 Le pusieron un manto de color púrpura; también trenzaron una corona de espinas y se la pusieron.
17 They clothed him with purple; and weaving a crown of thorns, they put it on him.
18 Y le gritaban: ―¡Viva el rey de los judíos!
18 They began to salute him, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
19 Lo golpeaban en la cabeza con una caña y lo escupían, y doblando la rodilla, le hacían reverencias.
19 They struck his head with a reed and spat on him, and bowing their knees, did homage to him.
20 Después de haberse burlado de él, le quitaron el manto y le pusieron su propia ropa. Por último, lo sacaron para crucificarlo.
20 When they had mocked him, they took the purple cloak off him, and put his own garments on him. They led him out to crucify him.
21 A un hombre de Cirene, que pasaba por allí al regresar del campo, lo obligaron a llevar la cruz. El hombre se llamaba Simón, y era padre de Alejandro y de Rufo.
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.
22 Llevaron, pues, a Jesús a un lugar llamado Gólgota (que significa: Lugar de la Calavera).
22 They brought him to the place called Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, “The place of a skull.”
23 Le ofrecieron vino mezclado con mirra, pero no lo tomó.
23 They offered him wine mixed with myrrh to drink, but he didn’t take it.
24 Entonces lo crucificaron. Repartieron la ropa de Jesús, y lo hicieron echando suertes para ver con qué se quedaba cada uno.
24 Crucifying him, they parted his garments among them, casting lots on them, what each should take.
25 Eran las nueve de la mañana cuando lo crucificaron.
25 It was the third hour when they crucified him.
26 Un letrero tenía escrita la causa de su condena: «el rey de los judíos».
26 The superscription of his accusation was written over him: “THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
27 Con él crucificaron a dos bandidos, uno a su derecha y otro a su izquierda.
27 With him they crucified two robbers, one on his right hand, and one on his left.
28 Con esto se cumplieron las Escrituras que dicen: «Contado fue entre malvados».
28 The Scripture was fulfilled which says, “He was counted with transgressors.”
29 Los que pasaban por allí meneaban la cabeza y lo insultaban diciendo: ―¡Eh! Tú, que destruyes el templo y en tres días lo reconstruyes,
29 Those who passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads and saying, “Ha! You who destroy the temple and build it in three days,
30 ¡baja de la cruz y sálvate a ti mismo!
30 save yourself, and come down from the cross!”
31 También los jefes de los sacerdotes y los maestros de la ley se burlaban de él con estas palabras: ―Salvó a otros, pero no puede salvarse a sí mismo.
31 Likewise, also the chief priests mocking among themselves with the scribes said, “He saved others. He can’t save himself.
32 Que baje ahora de la cruz ese Cristo, rey de Israel, para que veamos y creamos. Los que estaban crucificados con él, también lo insultaban.
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 also insulted him.
33 Al llegar el mediodía toda la tierra quedó en oscuridad, hasta la media tarde.
33 When the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.
34 A esta hora Jesús gritó con fuerza: —Eloi, Eloi, ¿lama sabactani? (que significa: Dios mío, Dios mío, ¿por qué me has abandonado?)
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?”
35 Cuando algunos de los que estaban allí lo oyeron, dijeron: ―Escuchen, está llamando al profeta Elías.
35 Some of those who stood by, when they heard it, said, “Behold, he is calling Elijah.”
36 Entonces un hombre corrió, empapó una esponja en vinagre, la puso en el extremo de una caña y se la ofreció a Jesús para que bebiera. Y dijo: ―Déjenlo, vamos a ver si Elías viene a bajarlo.
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.”
37 Entonces Jesús, dando un fuerte grito, murió.
37 Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and gave up the spirit.
38 El velo del templo se rasgó en dos, de arriba abajo.
38 The veil of the temple was torn in two from the top to the bottom.
39 El centurión que estaba frente a Jesús, al oír el grito y ver que estaba muerto, dijo: —¡Verdaderamente este hombre era el Hijo de Dios!
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!”
40 Había también algunas mujeres mirando desde lejos. Entre ellas estaban María Magdalena, María la madre de Jacobo el menor y de José, y Salomé.
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;
41 Estas mujeres habían seguido a Jesús y lo habían atendido cuando estaba en Galilea. Además, había allí muchas otras que habían subido con él a Jerusalén.
41 who, when he was in Galilee, followed him and served him; and many other women who came up with him to Jerusalem.
42 Como era el día de preparación, es decir, la víspera del sábado, ya al atardecer,
42 When evening had now come, because it was the Preparation Day, that is, the day before the Sabbath,
43 José de Arimatea, miembro distinguido del Consejo Superior de los judíos, y quien también esperaba el reino de Dios, se llenó de valor y se presentó ante Pilato para pedirle el cuerpo de Jesús.
43 Joseph of Arimathaea, a prominent council member who also himself was looking for God’s Kingdom, came. He boldly went in to Pilate, and asked for Jesus’ body.
44 Pilato se sorprendió de que Jesús ya estuviera muerto. Llamó al centurión y le preguntó si hacía mucho que había fallecido.
44 Pilate was surprised to hear that he was already dead; and summoning the centurion, he asked him whether he had been dead long.
45 Cuando el centurión le informó, entonces Pilato entregó el cuerpo a José.
45 When he found out from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.
46 José compró una sábana, bajó el cuerpo y lo envolvió en ella. Después lo puso en un sepulcro cavado en la roca. Luego hizo rodar una piedra a la entrada del sepulcro.
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.
47 María Magdalena y María la madre de José vieron dónde pusieron el cuerpo de Jesús.
47 Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses, saw where he was laid.

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).
