1 T hen Pilate took Jesus and had Him beaten.

Así que, entonces tomó Pilato a Jesús, y le azotó.

2 T he soldiers put a crown of thorns on His head. They put a purple coat on Him.

Y los soldados entretejieron una corona de espinas, y la pusieron sobre su cabeza, y le vistieron con un manto de púrpura;

3 T hen they said, “Hello, King of the Jews!” and hit Him with their hands.

y le decían:!! Salve, Rey de los judíos! y le daban de bofetadas.

4 P ilate went out again and said to the people, “See, I bring Him out to you so you will know I do not find Him guilty.”

Entonces Pilato salió otra vez, y les dijo: Mirad, os lo traigo fuera, para que entendáis que ningún delito hallo en él.

5 J esus came out. He had on the crown of thorns and a purple coat. Pilate said to the people, “See! This is the Man!” Pilate Tries to Let Jesus Go Free

Y salió Jesús, llevando la corona de espinas y el manto de púrpura. Y Pilato les dijo:!! He aquí el hombre!

6 T he religious leaders and the soldiers saw Him. They spoke with loud voices, “Nail Him to a cross! Nail Him to a cross!” Pilate said, “Take Him yourselves and nail Him to a cross. As for me, I do not find Him guilty.”

Cuando le vieron los principales sacerdotes y los alguaciles, dieron voces, diciendo:!! Crucifícale!!! Crucifícale! Pilato les dijo: Tomadle vosotros, y crucificadle; porque yo no hallo delito en él.

7 T he Jews said to Pilate, “We have a Law that says He should die because He has said He is the Son of God.”

Los judíos le respondieron: Nosotros tenemos una ley, y según nuestra ley debe morir, porque se hizo a sí mismo Hijo de Dios.

8 W hen Pilate heard them say this, he was more afraid.

Cuando Pilato oyó decir esto, tuvo más miedo.

9 H e went into the court room again. He said to Jesus, “Where do You come from?” Jesus did not say a word.

Y entró otra vez en el pretorio, y dijo a Jesús: ¿De dónde eres tú? Mas Jesús no le dio respuesta.

10 P ilate said, “Will You not speak to me? Do You not know that I have the right and the power to nail You to a cross? I have the right and the power to let You go free also.”

Entonces le dijo Pilato: ¿A mí no me hablas? ¿No sabes que tengo autoridad para crucificarte, y que tengo autoridad para soltarte?

11 J esus said, “You would not have any right or power over Me if it were not given you from above. For this reason the one who handed Me over to you has the worse sin.”

Respondió Jesús: Ninguna autoridad tendrías contra mí, si no te fuese dada de arriba; por tanto, el que a ti me ha entregado, mayor pecado tiene.

12 W hen Pilate heard this, he wanted to let Jesus go free. But the Jews kept saying, “If you let this Man go free, you are not a friend of Caesar! Whoever makes himself as a king is working against Caesar.”

Desde entonces procuraba Pilato soltarle; pero los judíos daban voces, diciendo: Si a éste sueltas, no eres amigo de César; todo el que se hace rey, a César se opone.

13 W hen Pilate heard this, he had Jesus brought in front of him. Pilate sat down at the place where men stand in front of him if they are thought to be guilty. The place is called the Stone Floor.

Entonces Pilato, oyendo esto, llevó fuera a Jesús, y se sentó en el tribunal en el lugar llamado el Enlosado, y en hebreo Gabata.

14 I t was the day to get ready for the special religious gathering to remember how the Jews left Egypt. It was about noon. Pilate said to the Jews, “See, your King!”

Era la preparación de la pascua, y como la hora sexta. Entonces dijo a los judíos:!! He aquí vuestro Rey!

15 T hey spoke with a loud voice, “Take Him away! Nail Him to a cross!” Pilate said to them, “Do you want me to nail your King to a cross?” The head religious leaders said, “We have no king but Caesar!”

Pero ellos gritaron:!! Fuera, fuera, crucifícale! Pilato les dijo: ¿A vuestro Rey he de crucificar? Respondieron los principales sacerdotes: No tenemos más rey que César.

16 T hen Pilate handed Him over to be nailed to a cross. They took Jesus and led Him away. Jesus on the Cross

Así que entonces lo entregó a ellos para que fuese crucificado. Tomaron, pues, a Jesús, y le llevaron. Crucifixión y muerte de Jesús (Mt. 27. 32-50; Mr. 15. 21-37; Lc. 23. 26-49)

17 J esus carried His own cross to a hill called the Place of the Skull.

Y él, cargando su cruz, salió al lugar llamado de la Calavera, y en hebreo, Gólgota;

18 T here they nailed Him to the cross. With Him were two others. There was one on each side of Jesus.

y allí le crucificaron, y con él a otros dos, uno a cada lado, y Jesús en medio.

19 T hen Pilate put a writing on the cross which said, JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

Escribió también Pilato un título, que puso sobre la cruz, el cual decía: JESÚS NAZARENO, REY DE LOS JUDÍOS.

20 T his was read by many of the Jews. The place where Jesus was nailed to the cross was near the city. The writing was written in the Hebrew and the Latin and the Greek languages.

Y muchos de los judíos leyeron este título; porque el lugar donde Jesús fue crucificado estaba cerca de la ciudad, y el título estaba escrito en hebreo, en griego y en latín.

21 T hen the head religious leaders of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews’! Write, ‘He said, I am the King of the Jews.’”

Dijeron a Pilato los principales sacerdotes de los judíos: No escribas: Rey de los judíos; sino, que él dijo: Soy Rey de los judíos.

22 P ilate said, “What I have written is to stay just as it is!” They Divided His Clothes

Respondió Pilato: Lo que he escrito, he escrito.

23 T he soldiers who nailed Jesus to the cross took His clothes and divided them in four parts, each soldier getting one part. But His coat which was not sewed was made in one piece.

Cuando los soldados hubieron crucificado a Jesús, tomaron sus vestidos, e hicieron cuatro partes, una para cada soldado. Tomaron también su túnica, la cual era sin costura, de un solo tejido de arriba abajo.

24 T hey said to each other, “Let us not cut it up. Let us draw names to see whose it should be.” This happened as the Holy Writings said it would happen, “They divided My clothes among them and they drew names for My coat.”

Entonces dijeron entre sí: No la partamos, sino echemos suertes sobre ella, a ver de quién será. Esto fue para que se cumpliese la Escritura, que dice: Repartieron entre sí mis vestidos, Y sobre mi ropa echaron suertes. m Y así lo hicieron los soldados.

25 T his is what the soldiers did. The Women at the Cross The mother of Jesus and her sister Mary, the wife of Cleophas, were standing near the cross. Mary Magdalene was there also.

Estaban junto a la cruz de Jesús su madre, y la hermana de su madre, María mujer de Cleofas, y María Magdalena.

26 J esus saw His mother and the follower whom He loved standing near. He said to His mother, “Woman, look at your son.”

Cuando vio Jesús a su madre, y al discípulo a quien él amaba, que estaba presente, dijo a su madre: Mujer, he ahí tu hijo.

27 T hen Jesus said to the follower, “Look at your mother.” From that time the follower took her to his own house. The Death of Jesus

Después dijo al discípulo: He ahí tu madre. Y desde aquella hora el discípulo la recibió en su casa.

28 J esus knew that everything was now finished. Everything happened as the Holy Writings said it would happen. He said, “I am thirsty.”

Después de esto, sabiendo Jesús que ya todo estaba consumado, dijo, para que la Escritura se cumpliese: Tengo sed.

29 T here was a jar full of sour wine near. They filled a sponge and put it on a stick and put it to His mouth.

Y estaba allí una vasija llena de vinagre; entonces ellos empaparon en vinagre una esponja, y poniéndola en un hisopo, se la acercaron a la boca.

30 J esus took the sour wine and said, “It is finished.” He put His head down and gave up His spirit and died. His Bones Were Not Broken

Cuando Jesús hubo tomado el vinagre, dijo: Consumado es. Y habiendo inclinado la cabeza, entregó el espíritu. El costado de Jesús traspasado

31 T his was the day before the special religious gathering to remember how the Jews left Egypt. The next day was the Day of Rest and the great day of the religious gathering. The Jews went to Pilate and asked to have the legs of the men broken. They wanted their bodies taken away so they would not be hanging on the crosses on the Day of Rest.

Entonces los judíos, por cuanto era la preparación de la pascua, a fin de que los cuerpos no quedasen en la cruz en el día de reposo (pues aquel día de reposo era de gran solemnidad), rogaron a Pilato que se les quebrasen las piernas, y fuesen quitados de allí.

32 T hen the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man and of the other one who had been nailed to crosses beside Jesus.

Vinieron, pues, los soldados, y quebraron las piernas al primero, y asimismo al otro que había sido crucificado con él.

33 T hey came to Jesus. They saw He was already dead so they did not break His legs.

Mas cuando llegaron a Jesús, como le vieron ya muerto, no le quebraron las piernas.

34 B ut one of the soldiers pushed a spear into His side. Blood and water ran out.

Pero uno de los soldados le abrió el costado con una lanza, y al instante salió sangre y agua.

35 T he one who saw it is writing this and what he says is true. He knows he is telling the truth so you may believe.

Y el que lo vio da testimonio, y su testimonio es verdadero; y él sabe que dice verdad, para que vosotros también creáis.

36 T hese things happened as the Holy Writings said they would happen, “Not one of His bones will be broken.”

Porque estas cosas sucedieron para que se cumpliese la Escritura: No será quebrado hueso suyo.

37 A nd in another place the Holy Writings say, “They will look at Him Whose side they cut.” The Grave of Jesus

Y también otra Escritura dice: Mirarán al que traspasaron. Jesús es sepultado (Mt. 27. 57-61; Mr. 15. 42-47; Lc. 23. 50-56)

38 J oseph was from the town of Arimathea. He was a follower of Jesus but was afraid of the Jews. So he worshiped without anyone knowing it. He asked Pilate if he could take away the body of Jesus. Pilate said he could. Then Joseph came and took it away.

Después de todo esto, José de Arimatea, que era discípulo de Jesús, pero secretamente por miedo de los judíos, rogó a Pilato que le permitiese llevarse el cuerpo de Jesús; y Pilato se lo concedió. Entonces vino, y se llevó el cuerpo de Jesús.

39 N icodemus came also. The first time he had come to Jesus had been at night. He brought with him a large box of spices.

También Nicodemo, el que antes había visitado a Jesús de noche, vino trayendo un compuesto de mirra y de áloes, como cien libras.

40 T hen they took the body of Jesus with the spices and put it in linen cloths. This was the way the Jews made a body ready for the grave.

Tomaron, pues, el cuerpo de Jesús, y lo envolvieron en lienzos con especias aromáticas, según es costumbre sepultar entre los judíos.

41 T here was a garden near the place where He had been nailed to the cross. In the garden there was a new grave in the side of the hill. No one had ever been laid there.

Y en el lugar donde había sido crucificado, había un huerto, y en el huerto un sepulcro nuevo, en el cual aún no había sido puesto ninguno.

42 T his place was near by. Because it was the day the Jews got ready for the special religious gathering, they laid Jesus in it.

Allí, pues, por causa de la preparación de la pascua de los judíos, y porque aquel sepulcro estaba cerca, pusieron a Jesús.
