1 Entonces Pilato tomó a Jesús y [lo] azotó.
1 So Pilate then took Jesus and flogged him.
2 Los soldados trenzaron una corona de espinas, se [la] pusieron sobre su cabeza y lo cubrieron con un manto de color púrpura.
2 The soldiers twisted thorns into a crown and put it on his head, and dressed him in a purple garment.
3 Se acercaban a Él y le decían: ¡Honores, Rey de los judíos! Y le daban bofetadas.
3 They kept saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and they kept slapping him.
4 Pilato salió otra vez y les dijo: Aquí se lo traigo. Sepan que no hallo delito en Él.
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 Jesús salió, llevaba la corona de espinas y el manto de púrpura. Y [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 principales sacerdotes y los guardias gritaron: ¡Crucifícalo! ¡Crucifícalo! Pilato les dijo: ¡Tómenlo ustedes y crucifíquenlo, pues yo no hallo delito en él!
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 respondieron: Nosotros tenemos Ley, y según la Ley tiene que morir, porque se declaró 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 escuchó esta declaración, tuvo más temor.
8 When therefore Pilate heard this saying, he was more afraid.
9 Entró otra vez en la residencia y 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 Entonces Pilato le preguntó: ¿No me hablas? ¿No sabes que tengo autoridad para soltarte y para crucificarte?
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 respondió: Ninguna autoridad tendrías sobre Mí si no te fuera dada de arriba. Por esto, el que me entregó a ti tiene mayor pecado.
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 Por tanto Pilato procuraba soltarlo. Pero los judíos gritaron: ¡Si sueltas a Éste, no eres amigo de César! ¡Todo el que se proclama rey contradice a César!
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 Después de oír estas palabras, Pilato llevó a Jesús afuera y se sentó en un tribunal, en un lugar llamado Enlosado, y en hebreo Gabbata.
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 Eran como las 12 del día de [la] Preparación de la Pascua. Y [Pilato] dijo a los judíos: ¡Aquí está 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 Por tanto ellos gritaron: ¡Fuera, fuera, crucifícalo! Pilato les preguntó: ¿Que crucifique a su Rey? Los sumos sacerdotes respondieron: ¡No tenemos rey sino a César!
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 Así que [Pilato] se lo entregó para que lo crucificaran. Entonces se llevaron a Jesús.
16 So then he delivered him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led him away.
17 Él mismo cargó la cruz y salió hacia el Lugar llamado Calavera, que en hebreo es Gólgota.
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, y a otros dos con Él, uno a cada lado, y a Jesús en el medio.
18 where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the middle.
19 Pilato también escribió y colocó sobre la cruz un letrero: Jesús nazareno, 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 leyeron este letrero escrito en hebreo, latín y griego, porque el lugar donde Jesús fue crucificado estaba cerca de la ciudad.
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 principales sacerdotes de los judíos dijeron a Pilato: No escribas: Rey de los judíos, sino aquel que dijo: Soy 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 respondió: Lo que he escrito está escrito.
22 Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
23 Cuando los soldados crucificaron a Jesús, tomaron sus ropas y las repartieron en cuatro partes, una parte para cada soldado, excepto la túnica porque era sin costura tejida por completo desde arriba.
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 Entonces se dijeron unos a otros: No la rasguemos, sino echemos suertes sobre ella [a fin de] saber de quién será, para que se cumpliera la Escritura: Se repartieron mis ropas entre ellos, Y sobre mi manto echaron suerte. Así pues, los soldados hicieron estas cosas.
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 Delante de la cruz de Jesús estaban en pie 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 Entonces Jesús, al ver a su madre y al discípulo a quien amaba, que estaba en pie junto a ella, dijo a su madre: ¡Mujer, ahí está 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 Después dijo al discípulo: ¡Ahí está tu madre! Desde aquella hora el discípulo la recibió en su hogar.
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 se había consumado, 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 Estaba allí una vasija llena de vinagre. Entonces sujetaron alrededor de un hisopo una esponja empapada en vinagre, y la llevaron a su 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 Jesús probó el vinagre y dijo: Fue consumado. Al inclinar la cabeza, 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 Entonces los judíos rogaron a Pilato que se les quebraran las piernas y fueran quitados, por cuanto era el día de [la] Preparación, para que los cuerpos no permanecieran en la cruz en sábado, pues aquel sábado era grande.
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 quebraron las piernas de los dos crucificados con Él.
32 Therefore the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with him;
33 Pero al llegar a Jesús, como lo vieron ya muerto, 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 Sin embargo, uno de los soldados le abrió el costado con su lanza, y al instante salieron 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 vio da testimonio, y su testimonio es verdadero. Él sabe que dijo 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 Porque estas cosas sucedieron para que se cumpliera la Escritura: No será quebrado hueso suyo.
36 For these things happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled, “A bone of him will not be broken.”
37 Además otra Escritura dice: Mirarán al que traspasaron.
37 Again another Scripture says, “They will look on him whom they pierced.”
38 Después de estas cosas, José de Arimatea, discípulo oculto de Jesús por miedo a los judíos, pidió a Pilato el cuerpo de Jesús. Y Pilato [le] permitió. Fue y 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 llegó Nicodemo, quien visitó a Jesús de noche, y llevó una mezcla de mirra y áloe como de 45 kilogramos.
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 Tomaron el cuerpo de Jesús y lo envolvieron en lienzos con las especias aromáticas, según es costumbre de los judíos para sepultar.
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 fue crucificado había un jardín y un sepulcro nuevo en el cual nadie había sido puesto.
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 Allí pusieron a Jesús por causa de la Preparación de los judíos, porque el sepulcro estaba cerca.
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." Thus did He in like manner speak to Pilate: "Thou shouldest have no power at all against Me, unless it were given thee from above;" God always giving up the righteous one [in this life to suffering], that he, having …
… very nature of His death, that is, the height of the cross, is understood by the single words "Thou are gone up." The evangelist explains what is added, "Lying down, thou hast slept," when he says, "He bowed His head, and gave up the ghost." Or at least His burial is to be understood, in which He lay down sleeping, …
