Matthew 27:32 - Mark 1:45
New King James Version
The King on a Cross(A)
32 (B)Now as they came out, (C)they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. Him they compelled to bear His cross. 33 (D)And when they had come to a place called Golgotha, that is to say, Place of a Skull, 34 (E)they gave Him [a]sour wine mingled with gall to drink. But when He had tasted it, He would not drink.
35 (F)Then they crucified Him, and divided His garments, casting lots, [b]that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet:
(G)“They divided My garments among them,
And for My clothing they cast lots.”
36 (H)Sitting down, they kept watch over Him there. 37 And they (I)put up over His head the accusation written against Him:
THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 (J)Then two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and another on the left.
39 And (K)those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads 40 and saying, (L)“You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save Yourself! (M)If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross.”
41 Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the [c]scribes and elders, said, 42 “He (N)saved others; Himself He cannot save. [d]If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe [e]Him. 43 (O)He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ”
44 (P)Even the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing.
Jesus Dies on the Cross(Q)
45 (R)Now from the sixth hour until the ninth hour there was darkness over all the land. 46 And about the ninth hour (S)Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, (T)“My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
47 Some of those who stood there, when they heard that, said, “This Man is calling for Elijah!” 48 Immediately one of them ran and took a sponge, (U)filled it with sour wine and put it on a reed, and offered it to Him to drink.
49 The rest said, “Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to save Him.”
50 And Jesus (V)cried out again with a loud voice, and (W)yielded up His spirit.
51 Then, behold, (X)the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth quaked, and the rocks were split, 52 and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; 53 and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.
54 (Y)So when the centurion and those with him, who were guarding Jesus, saw the earthquake and the things that had happened, they feared greatly, saying, (Z)“Truly this was the Son of God!”
55 And many women (AA)who followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to Him, were there looking on from afar, 56 (AB)among whom were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and [f]Joses, and the mother of Zebedee’s sons.
Jesus Buried in Joseph’s Tomb(AC)
57 Now (AD)when evening had come, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who himself had also become a disciple of Jesus. 58 This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be given to him. 59 When Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, 60 and (AE)laid it in his new tomb which he had hewn out of the rock; and he rolled a large stone against the door of the tomb, and departed. 61 And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting [g]opposite the tomb.
Pilate Sets a Guard
62 On the next day, which followed the Day of Preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees gathered together to Pilate, 63 saying, “Sir, we remember, while He was still alive, how that deceiver said, (AF)‘After three days I will rise.’ 64 Therefore command that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest His disciples come [h]by night and steal Him away, and say to the people, ‘He has risen from the dead.’ So the last deception will be worse than the first.”
65 Pilate said to them, “You have a guard; go your way, make it as secure as you know how.” 66 So they went and made the tomb secure, (AG)sealing the stone and setting the guard.
He Is Risen(AH)
28 Now (AI)after the Sabbath, as the first day of the week began to dawn, Mary Magdalene (AJ)and the other Mary came to see the tomb. 2 And behold, there was a great earthquake; for (AK)an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone [i]from the door, and sat on it. 3 (AL)His countenance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow. 4 And the guards shook for fear of him, and became like (AM)dead men.
5 But the angel answered and said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. 6 He is not here; for He is risen, (AN)as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. 7 And go quickly and tell His disciples that He is risen from the dead, and indeed (AO)He is going before you into Galilee; there you will see Him. Behold, I have told you.”
8 So they went out quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to bring His disciples word.
The Women Worship the Risen Lord
9 And [j]as they went to tell His disciples, behold, (AP)Jesus met them, saying, “Rejoice!” So they came and held Him by the feet and worshiped Him. 10 Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid. Go and tell (AQ)My brethren to go to Galilee, and there they will see Me.”
The Soldiers Are Bribed
11 Now while they were going, behold, some of the guard came into the city and reported to the chief priests all the things that had happened. 12 When they had assembled with the elders and consulted together, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers, 13 saying, “Tell them, ‘His disciples came at night and stole Him away while we slept.’ 14 And if this comes to the governor’s ears, we will appease him and make you secure.” 15 So they took the money and did as they were instructed; and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.
The Great Commission(AR)
16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, to the mountain (AS)which Jesus had appointed for them. 17 When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some (AT)doubted.
18 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, (AU)“All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 (AV)Go [k]therefore and (AW)make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 (AX)teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am (AY)with you always, even to the end of the age.” [l]Amen.
John the Baptist Prepares the Way(AZ)
1 The (BA)beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, (BB)the Son of God. 2 As it is written in [m]the Prophets:
(BC)“Behold, I send My messenger before Your face,
Who will prepare Your way before You.”
3 “The(BD) voice of one crying in the wilderness:
‘Prepare the way of the Lord;
Make His paths straight.’ ”
4 (BE)John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance [n]for the remission of sins. 5 (BF)Then all the land of Judea, and those from Jerusalem, went out to him and were all baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.
6 Now John was (BG)clothed with camel’s hair and with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey. 7 And he preached, saying, (BH)“There comes One after me who is mightier than I, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to stoop down and loose. 8 (BI)I indeed baptized you with water, but He will baptize you (BJ)with the Holy Spirit.”
John Baptizes Jesus(BK)
9 (BL)It came to pass in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 (BM)And immediately, coming up [o]from the water, He saw the heavens [p]parting and the Spirit (BN)descending upon Him like a dove. 11 Then a voice came from heaven, (BO)“You are My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
Satan Tempts Jesus(BP)
12 (BQ)Immediately the Spirit [q]drove Him into the wilderness. 13 And He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts; (BR)and the angels ministered to Him.
Jesus Begins His Galilean Ministry(BS)
14 (BT)Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, (BU)preaching the gospel [r]of the kingdom of God, 15 and saying, (BV)“The time is fulfilled, and (BW)the kingdom of God [s]is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.”
Four Fishermen Called as Disciples(BX)
16 (BY)And as He walked by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. 17 Then Jesus said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you become (BZ)fishers of men.” 18 (CA)They immediately left their nets and followed Him.
19 When He had gone a little farther from there, He saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets. 20 And immediately He called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and went after Him.
Jesus Casts Out an Unclean Spirit(CB)
21 (CC)Then they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath He entered the (CD)synagogue and taught. 22 (CE)And they were astonished at His teaching, for He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
23 Now there was a man in their synagogue with an (CF)unclean spirit. And he cried out, 24 saying, “Let us alone! (CG)What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Did You come to destroy us? I (CH)know who You are—the (CI)Holy One of God!”
25 But Jesus (CJ)rebuked him, saying, [t]“Be quiet, and come out of him!” 26 And when the unclean spirit (CK)had convulsed him and cried out with a loud voice, he came out of him. 27 Then they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, [u]“What is this? What new [v]doctrine is this? For with authority He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him.” 28 And immediately His (CL)fame spread throughout all the region around Galilee.
Peter’s Mother-in-Law Healed(CM)
29 (CN)Now as soon as they had come out of the synagogue, they entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. 30 But Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick with a fever, and they told Him about her at once. 31 So He came and took her by the hand and lifted her up, and immediately the fever left her. And she served them.
Many Healed After Sabbath Sunset(CO)
32 (CP)At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to Him all who were sick and those who were demon-possessed. 33 And the whole city was gathered together at the door. 34 Then He healed many who were sick with various diseases, and (CQ)cast out many demons; and He (CR)did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew Him.
Preaching in Galilee(CS)
35 Now (CT)in the morning, having risen a long while before daylight, He went out and departed to a [w]solitary place; and there He (CU)prayed. 36 And Simon and those who were with Him searched for Him. 37 When they found Him, they said to Him, (CV)“Everyone (CW)is looking for You.”
38 But He said to them, (CX)“Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because (CY)for this purpose I have come forth.”
39 (CZ)And He was preaching in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and (DA)casting out demons.
Jesus Cleanses a Leper(DB)
40 (DC)Now a leper came to Him, imploring Him, kneeling down to Him and saying to Him, “If You are willing, You can make me clean.”
41 Then Jesus, moved with (DD)compassion, stretched out His hand and touched him, and said to him, “I am willing; be cleansed.” 42 As soon as He had spoken, (DE)immediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed. 43 And He strictly warned him and sent him away at once, 44 and said to him, “See that you say nothing to anyone; but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing those things (DF)which Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
45 (DG)However, he went out and began to proclaim it freely, and to spread the matter, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter the city, but was outside in deserted places; (DH)and they came to Him from every direction.
