Mark 15:16-41

161The soldiersG4757 tookG520 Him awayG520 into 2the 3palaceG833 (that is, the PraetoriumG4232), and they calledG4779 togetherG4779 the wholeG3650 Roman 45cohortG4686. 17They dressedG1737 Him up in purpleG4209, and after twistingG4120 a crownG4735 of thornsG174, they putG4060 it on Him; 18and they beganG757 to acclaimG782 Him, “HailG5463, KingG935 of the JewsG2453!” 19They kept beatingG5180 His headG2776 with a 6reedG2563, and spittingG1716 on Him, and kneelingG1119G5087 and bowingG4352 beforeG4352 Him. 20AfterG3753 they had mockedG1702 Him, they tookG1562 the purpleG4209 robeG4209 offG1562 Him and putG1746 His own garmentsG2440 on Him. And they ledG1806 Him out to crucifyG4717 Him.

217They pressedG29 into serviceG29 a passer-byG3855 comingG2064 from the countryG68, SimonG4613 of CyreneG2956 (the fatherG3962 of AlexanderG223 and 8RufusG4504), to bearG142 His crossG4716.

229ThenG2532 they broughtG5342 Him to the placeG5117 10GolgothaG1115, whichG3739 is translatedG3177, PlaceG5117 of a SkullG2898. 23They tried to giveG1325 Him 11wineG3631 mixedG4669 with myrrhG4669; but He did not takeG2983 it. 24And they crucifiedG4717 Him, and 12dividedG1266 up His garmentsG2440 amongG1266 themselves, castingG906 13lotsG2819 for them to decide 14whatG5101 eachG5101 manG5100 should takeG142. 25It was the 1516thirdG5154 hourG5610 17whenG2532 they crucifiedG4717 Him. 26The inscriptionG1923 of the chargeG156 againstG156 Him 18readG1924, “19THE KINGG935 OF THE JEWSG2453.”

27They crucifiedG4717 twoG1417 robbersG3027 with Him, oneG1520 on His rightG1188 and oneG1520 on His leftG2176. 28[20And the ScriptureG1124 was fulfilledG4137 which saysG3004, “And He was numberedG3049 with transgressorsG459.”] 29ThoseG3588 passingG3899 by were 21hurlingG987 abuseG987 at Him, 22waggingG2795 their headsG2776, and sayingG3004, “HaG3758! You who are going to 23destroyG2647 the templeG3485 and rebuildG3618 it in threeG5140 daysG2250, 30saveG4982 YourselfG4572, and comeG2597 downG2597 from the crossG4716!” 31In the sameG3668 wayG3668 the chiefG749 priestsG749 alsoG2532, along with the scribesG1122, were mockingG1702 Him amongG4314 themselvesG240 and sayingG3004, “24He savedG4982 othersG243; 25He cannotG1410G3756 saveG4982 HimselfG1438. 32Let this ChristG5547, 26the KingG935 of IsraelG2474, nowG3568 comeG2597 downG2597 from the crossG4716, soG2443 that we may seeG3708 and believeG4100!” 27ThoseG3588 who were crucifiedG4957 with Him were alsoG2532 insultingG3679 Him.

3328When the 2930sixthG1623 hourG5610 cameG1096, darknessG4655 31fellG1096 overG1909 the wholeG3650 landG1093 untilG2193 the 3233ninthG1729 hourG5610. 34At the 34ninthG1729 hourG5610 JesusG2424 criedG994 out with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, “35EloiG1682, EloiG1682, lamaG2982 sabachthaniG4518?” whichG3739 is translatedG3177, “My GodG2316, My GodG2316, whyG1519G5101 have You forsakenG1459 Me?” 35When someG5100 of the bystandersG3936 heardG191 it, they began sayingG3004, “BeholdG2396, He is callingG5455 for ElijahG2243.” 36SomeoneG5100 ranG5143 and filledG1072 a spongeG4699 with sourG3690 wineG3690, putG4060 it on a reedG2563, and gaveG4222 Him a drinkG4222, sayingG3004, “36LetG863 us seeG3708 whetherG1487 ElijahG2243 will comeG2064 to takeG2507 Him downG2507.” 3737And JesusG2424 utteredG863 a loudG3173 cryG5456, and breathedG1606 His lastG1606. 3838And the veilG2665 of the templeG3485 was tornG4977 in twoG1417 from topG509 to bottomG2736. 3939When the centurionG2760, who was standingG3936 40rightG1727 in frontG1727 of Him, sawG3708 41the wayG3779 He breathedG1606 His lastG1606, he saidG3004, “TrulyG230 thisG3778 manG444 was 42the SonG5207 of GodG2316!”

4043There were alsoG2532 some womenG1135 lookingG2334 on from a distanceG3113, amongG1722 whomG3739 were MaryG3137 MagdaleneG3094, and MaryG3137 the motherG3384 of 44JamesG2385 45the 46LessG3398 and JosesG2500, and 47SalomeG4539. 41WhenG3753 He was in GalileeG1056, they used to followG190 Him and 4849ministerG1247 to Him; and there were manyG4183 otherG243 womenG243 who cameG4872 up with Him to JerusalemG2414.
