Webster Noah Webster's Bible (1833)
RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put 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.
2 And when they had bound him, they led [him] away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
2 Y le llevaron atado, y le entregaron á Poncio Pilato presidente.
3 Then Judas, who had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and 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,
4 Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed innocent blood. And they said, What [is that] to us? see thou [to that] .
4 Diciendo: Yo he pecado entregando la sangre inocente. Mas ellos dijeron: ¿Qué [se nos da] á nosotros? Viéras[lo] tú.
5 And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.
5 Y arrojando [las piezas] de plata en el templo, partióse; y fué, y se ahorcó.
6 And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, 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.
7 And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.
7 Mas habido consejo, compraron con ellas el campo del alfarero, por sepultura para los extranjeros.
8 Wherefore that field has been called, The field of blood, to this day.
8 Por lo cual fué llamado aquel campo, Campo de sangre, hasta el día de hoy.
9 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;
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;
10 And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.
10 Y las dieron para el campo del alfarero, como me ordenó el Señor.
11 And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said to him, Thou sayest.
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.
12 And when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.
12 Y siendo acusado por los príncipes de los sacerdotes, y por los ancianos, nada respondió.
13 Then saith Pilate to him, Hearest thou not how many things they testify against thee?
13 Pilato entonces le dice: ¿No oyes cuántas cosas testifican contra ti?
14 And he answered him to not a word; so that the governor marveled greatly.
14 Y no le respondió ni una palabra; de tal manera que el presidente se maravillaba mucho.
15 Now at [that] feast, the governor was wont to release to the people a prisoner, whom they would.
15 Y en el día de la fiesta acostumbraba el presidente soltar al pueblo un preso, cual quisiesen.
16 And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.
16 Y tenían entonces un preso famoso que se llamaba Barrabás.
17 Therefore when they were assembled, Pilate said to them, Whom will ye that I 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?
18 (For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.)
18 Porque sabía que por envidia le habían entregado.
19 When he was sitting on the judgment-seat, his wife sent to him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream, because of him.
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.
20 But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
20 Mas los príncipes de los sacerdotes y los ancianos, persuadieron al pueblo que pidiese á Barrabás, y á Jesús matase.
21 The governor answered and said to them, Which of the two will ye that I release to you? They said, Barabbas.
21 Y respondiendo el presidente les dijo: ¿Cuál de los dos queréis que os suelte? Y ellos dijeron: A Barrabás.
22 Pilate saith to them, What shall I do then with Jesus, who is called Christ? [They] all say to him, Let him be crucified.
22 Pilato les dijo: ¿Qué pues haré de Jesús que se dice el Cristo? Dícenle todos: Sea crucificado.
23 And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out 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.
24 When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but [that] rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed [his] hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye [to it] .
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.
25 Then answered all the people, and said, His blood [be] on us, and on our children.
25 Y respondiendo todo el pueblo, dijo: Su sangre [sea] sobre nosotros, y sobre nuestros hijos.
26 Then he released Barabbas to them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered [him] to be crucified.
26 Entonces les soltó á Barrabás: y habiendo azotado á Jesús, le entregó para ser crucificado.
27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered to him the whole band [of soldiers] .
27 Entonces los soldados del presidente llevaron á Jesús al pretorio, y juntaron á él toda la cuadrilla;
28 And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
28 Y desnudándole, le echaron encima un manto de grana;
29 And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put [it] upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and 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!
30 And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and struck him on the head.
30 Y escupiendo en él, tomaron la caña, y le herían en la cabeza.
31 And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and 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.
32 And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they constrained to bear his cross.
32 Y saliendo, hallaron á un Cireneo, que se llamaba Simón: á éste cargaron para que llevase su cruz.
33 And when they had come to a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,
33 Y como llegaron al lugar que se llama Gólgotha, que es dicho, El lugar de la calavera,
34 They gave him vinegar to drink, mingled with gall: and when he had tasted [of it] , he would not drink.
34 Le dieron á beber vinagre mezclado con hiel; y gustando, no quiso beber[lo].
35 And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture 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.
36 And sitting down, they watched him there:
36 Y sentados le guardaban allí.
37 And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
37 Y pusieron sobre su cabeza su causa escrita: ESTE ES JESUS EL REY DE LOS JUDIOS.
38 Then were there two thieves crucified with him: one on the right hand, and another on the left.
38 Entonces crucificaron con él dos ladrones, uno á la derecha, y otro á la izquierda.
39 And they that passed by, reviled him, wagging their heads,
39 Y los que pasaban, le decían injurias, meneando sus cabezas,
40 And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest [it] in three days, save thyself. If thou art the Son of God, come down 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.
41 Likewise also the chief priests mocking [him] , with the scribes and elders, said,
41 De esta manera también los príncipes de los sacerdotes, escarneciendo con los escribas y los Fariseos y los ancianos, decían:
42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he is King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe 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.
43 He trusted in God; let him deliver him now if he will have 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.
44 The thieves also who were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.
44 Lo mismo también le zaherían los ladrones que estaban crucificados con él.
45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land to the ninth hour.
45 Y desde la hora de sexta fueron tinieblas sobre toda la tierra hasta la hora de nona.
46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou 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?
47 Some of them that stood there, when they heard [that] , said, This [man] calleth for Elijah.
47 Y algunos de los que estaban allí, oyéndolo, decían: A Elías llama éste.
48 And immediately one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled [it] with vinegar, and put [it] on a reed, and gave 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.
49 The rest said, Forbear, let us see whether Elijah will come to save him.
49 Y los otros decían: Deja, veamos si viene Elías á librarle.
50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, expired.
50 Mas Jesús, habiendo otra vez exclamado con grande voz, dió el espíritu.
51 And behold, the vail of the temple was rent in two, from the top to the bottom: and the earth shook, and the rocks rent;
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;
52 And the graves were opened, and many bodies of saints who slept, arose,
52 Y abriéronse los sepulcros, y muchos cuerpos de santos que habían dormido, se levantaron;
53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared to many.
53 Y salidos de los sepulcros, después de su resurrección, vinieron á la santa ciudad, y aparecieron á muchos.
54 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, 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.
55 And many women were there (beholding at a distance) who 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:
56 Among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's children.
56 Entre las cuales estaban María Magdalena, y María la madre de Jacobo y de José, y la madre de los hijos de Zebedeo.
57 When the evening was come, there came a rich man of Arimathea, named Joseph, who also himself was 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.
58 He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.
58 Este llegó á Pilato, y pidió el cuerpo de Jesús: entonces Pilato mandó que se le diese el cuerpo.
59 And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
59 Y tomando José el cuerpo, lo envolvió en una sábana limpia,
60 And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock; and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulcher, and departed.
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.
61 And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulcher.
61 Y estaban allí María Magdalena, y la otra María, sentadas delante del sepulcro.
62 Now the next day that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together to Pilate,
62 Y el siguiente día, que es después de la preparación, se juntaron los príncipes de los sacerdotes y los Fariseos á Pilato,
63 Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.
63 Diciendo: Señor, nos acordamos que aquel engañador dijo, viviendo aún: Después de tres días resucitaré.
64 Command therefore that the sepulcher be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say to the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error will 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.
65 Pilate said to them, Ye have a watch: go, make [it] as secure as ye can.
65 Y Pilato les dijo: Tenéis una guardia: id, aseguradlo como sabéis.
66 So they went, and having sealed the stone, made the sepulcher secure with a watch.
66 Y yendo ellos, aseguraron el sepulcro, sellando la piedra, con la guardia.

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).

  1. Commentary 27:11 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily LXXXVI)

    Seest thou what He is first asked? which thing most of all they were continually bringing forward in every way? For since they saw Pilate making no account of the matters of the law, they direct their accusation to the state charges.

  2. Quotes verse 27:34 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XVII, Chapter 19)

    For when the things which pertain to His passion are prophetically spoken there also in the person of Christ, that is mentioned which is unfolded in the Gospel: "They gave me gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar for drink."
