Marcos 15
La Biblia de las Américas
Jesús ante Pilato
15 Muy de mañana, los principales sacerdotes prepararon enseguida una reunión(A) con los ancianos, los escribas y todo el concilio[a](B); y atando a Jesús, le llevaron y le entregaron a Pilato. 2 (C)Pilato le preguntó: ¿Eres tú el Rey de los judíos? Respondiendo Él, le dijo*: Tú lo dices. 3 Y los principales sacerdotes le acusaban de muchas cosas[b]. 4 De nuevo Pilato le preguntó, diciendo: ¿No respondes nada? Mira de cuántas cosas te acusan. 5 Pero Jesús no respondió nada más(D); de modo que Pilato estaba asombrado.
Jesús o Barrabás
6 (E)Ahora bien, en cada fiesta él acostumbraba soltarles un preso, el que ellos pidieran. 7 Y uno llamado Barrabás había sido encarcelado con los sediciosos que habían cometido homicidio en la insurrección. 8 Y subiendo la multitud, comenzó a pedirle que hiciera como siempre les había hecho. 9 Entonces Pilato les contestó, diciendo: ¿Queréis que os suelte al Rey de los judíos? 10 Porque sabía que los principales sacerdotes le habían entregado por envidia. 11 Pero los principales sacerdotes incitaron a la multitud para que le pidiera que en vez de Jesús les soltara a Barrabás(F). 12 Y Pilato, tomando de nuevo la palabra, les decía: ¿Qué haré, entonces, con el que llamáis el Rey de los judíos? 13 Ellos le respondieron a gritos[c]: ¡Crucifícale! 14 Y Pilato les decía: ¿Por qué? ¿Qué mal ha hecho? Y ellos gritaban aún más: ¡Crucifícale! 15 Pilato, queriendo complacer a la multitud, les soltó a Barrabás; y después de hacer azotar a Jesús, le entregó para que fuera crucificado(G).
Los soldados se mofan de Jesús
16 (H)Entonces los soldados le llevaron dentro del palacio[d](I), es decir, al Pretorio, y convocaron* a toda la cohorte[e] romana(J). 17 Le vistieron* de púrpura, y después de tejer una corona de espinas, se la pusieron; 18 y comenzaron a vitorearle: ¡Salve, Rey de los judíos! 19 Le golpeaban la cabeza con una caña[f] y le escupían, y poniéndose de rodillas le hacían reverencias. 20 Y después de haberse burlado de Él, le quitaron la púrpura, le pusieron sus ropas y le sacaron* para crucificarle.
21 (K)Y obligaron* a uno que pasaba y que venía del campo, Simón de Cirene, el padre de Alejandro y Rufo, a que llevara la cruz de Jesús[g].
La crucifixión
22 (L)Le llevaron* al lugar llamado Gólgota, que traducido significa: Lugar de la Calavera(M). 23 Y trataron de darle vino mezclado con mirra, pero Él no lo tomó(N). 24 Cuando le crucificaron*, se repartieron* sus vestidos, echando suertes[h] sobre ellos para decidir lo que cada uno tomaría(O). 25 Era la hora tercera[i](P) cuando[j] le crucificaron. 26 Y la inscripción de la acusación contra Él decía[k]: EL REY DE LOS JUDÍOS(Q). 27 Crucificaron* con Él a dos ladrones; uno a su derecha y otro a su izquierda. 28 [l]Y se cumplió la Escritura que dice: Y con los transgresores fue contado. 29 Y los que pasaban le injuriaban, meneando la cabeza(R) y diciendo: ¡Bah! Tú que destruyes el templo y en tres días lo reedificas(S), 30 ¡sálvate a ti mismo descendiendo de la cruz! 31 De igual manera, también los principales sacerdotes junto con los escribas, burlándose de Él entre ellos, decían: A otros salvó, a sí mismo no puede salvarse[m](T). 32 Que este[n] Cristo, el Rey de Israel(U), descienda ahora de la cruz, para que veamos y creamos. Y los que estaban crucificados con Él también le insultaban(V).
Muerte de Jesús
33 (W)Cuando llegó la hora sexta[o], hubo oscuridad sobre toda la tierra hasta la hora novena[p](X). 34 Y a la hora novena(Y) Jesús exclamó con fuerte voz: Eloi, Eloi, ¿lema sabactani?, que traducido significa, Dios mío, Dios mío, ¿por qué me has abandonado(Z)? 35 Algunos de los que estaban allí, al oírlo, decían: Mirad, a Elías llama. 36 Entonces uno corrió y empapó una esponja en vinagre, y poniéndola en una caña[q], le dio a beber, diciendo: Dejad, veamos si Elías viene a bajarle. 37 Y Jesús, dando un fuerte grito, expiró(AA). 38 Y el velo del templo se rasgó en dos, de arriba abajo(AB). 39 Viendo el centurión que estaba frente a Él, la manera en que[r] expiró, dijo: En verdad este hombre era Hijo de Dios[s](AC). 40 (AD)Había también unas mujeres mirando de lejos, entre las que estaban María Magdalena, María, la madre de Jacobo[t] el menor[u](AE) y de José, y Salomé(AF), 41 las cuales cuando Jesús estaba en Galilea, le seguían y le servían(AG); y había muchas otras que habían subido con Él a Jerusalén.
Sepultura de Jesús
42 (AH)Ya al atardecer, como era el día de la preparación(AI), es decir, la víspera del día de reposo, 43 vino José de Arimatea, miembro prominente del concilio(AJ), que también esperaba el reino de Dios(AK); y llenándose de valor, entró adonde estaba Pilato y le pidió el cuerpo de Jesús(AL). 44 Pilato se sorprendió de que ya hubiera muerto, y llamando al centurión, le preguntó si ya estaba muerto. 45 Y comprobando esto por medio del centurión(AM), le concedió el cuerpo a José, 46 quien compró un lienzo de lino, y bajándole de la cruz, le envolvió en el lienzo de lino y le puso en un sepulcro que había sido excavado en la roca; e hizo rodar una piedra a la entrada del sepulcro. 47 Y María Magdalena y María, la madre de José(AN), miraban para saber dónde le ponían.

New King James Version
Jesus Faces Pilate(A)
15 Immediately, (B)in the morning, the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council; and they bound Jesus, led Him away, and (C)delivered Him to Pilate. 2 (D)Then Pilate asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?”
He answered and said to him, “It is as you say.”
3 And the chief priests accused Him of many things, but He (E)answered nothing. 4 (F)Then Pilate asked Him again, saying, “Do You answer nothing? See how many things [a]they testify against You!” 5 (G)But Jesus still answered nothing, so that Pilate marveled.
Taking the Place of Barabbas(H)
6 Now (I)at the feast he was accustomed to releasing one prisoner to them, whomever they requested. 7 And there was one named Barabbas, who was chained with his fellow rebels; they had committed murder in the rebellion. 8 Then the multitude, [b]crying aloud, began to ask him to do just as he had always done for them. 9 But Pilate answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?” 10 For he knew that the chief priests had handed Him over because of envy.
11 But (J)the chief priests stirred up the crowd, so that he should rather release Barabbas to them. 12 Pilate answered and said to them again, “What then do you want me to do with Him whom you call the (K)King of the Jews?”
13 So they cried out again, “Crucify Him!”
14 Then Pilate said to them, “Why, (L)what evil has He done?”
But they cried out all the more, “Crucify Him!”
15 (M)So Pilate, wanting to gratify the crowd, released Barabbas to them; and he delivered Jesus, after he had scourged Him, to be (N)crucified.
The Soldiers Mock Jesus(O)
16 (P)Then the soldiers led Him away into the hall called [c]Praetorium, and they called together the whole garrison. 17 And they clothed Him with purple; and they twisted a crown of thorns, put it on His head, 18 and began to salute Him, “Hail, King of the Jews!” 19 Then they (Q)struck Him on the head with a reed and spat on Him; and bowing the knee, they worshiped Him. 20 And when they had (R)mocked Him, they took the purple off Him, put His own clothes on Him, and led Him out to crucify Him.
The King on a Cross(S)
21 (T)Then they compelled a certain man, Simon a Cyrenian, the father of Alexander and Rufus, as he was coming out of the country and passing by, to bear His cross. 22 (U)And they brought Him to the place Golgotha, which is translated, Place of a Skull. 23 (V)Then they gave Him wine mingled with myrrh to drink, but He did not take it. 24 And when they crucified Him, (W)they divided His garments, casting lots for them to determine what every man should take.
25 Now (X)it was the third hour, and they crucified Him. 26 And (Y)the inscription of His [d]accusation was written above:
THE KING OF THE JEWS.
27 (Z)With Him they also crucified two robbers, one on His right and the other on His left. 28 [e]So the Scripture was fulfilled which says, (AA)“And He was numbered with the transgressors.”
29 And (AB)those who passed by blasphemed Him, (AC)wagging their heads and saying, “Aha! (AD)You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, 30 save Yourself, and come down from the cross!”
31 Likewise the chief priests also, (AE)mocking among themselves with the scribes, said, “He saved (AF)others; Himself He cannot save. 32 Let the Christ, the King of Israel, descend now from the cross, that we may see and [f]believe.”
Even (AG)those who were crucified with Him reviled Him.
Jesus Dies on the Cross(AH)
33 Now (AI)when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. 34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is translated, (AJ)“My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
35 Some of those who stood by, when they heard that, said, “Look, He is calling for Elijah!” 36 Then (AK)someone ran and filled a sponge full of sour wine, put it on a reed, and (AL)offered it to Him to drink, saying, “Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to take Him down.”
37 (AM)And Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and breathed His last.
38 Then (AN)the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. 39 So (AO)when the centurion, who stood opposite Him, saw that [g]He cried out like this and breathed His last, he said, “Truly this Man was the Son of God!”
40 (AP)There were also women looking on (AQ)from afar, among whom were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the Less and of Joses, and Salome, 41 who also (AR)followed Him and ministered to Him when He was in Galilee, and many other women who came up with Him to Jerusalem.
Jesus Buried in Joseph’s Tomb(AS)
42 (AT)Now when evening had come, because it was the Preparation Day, that is, the day before the Sabbath, 43 Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent council member, who (AU)was himself waiting for the kingdom of God, coming and taking courage, went in to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 44 Pilate marveled that He was already dead; and summoning the centurion, he asked him if He had been dead for some time. 45 So when he found out from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph. 46 (AV)Then he bought fine linen, took Him down, and wrapped Him in the linen. And he laid Him in a tomb which had been hewn out of the rock, and rolled a stone against the door of the tomb. 47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses observed where He was laid.

King James Version
15 And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.
2 And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said unto them, Thou sayest it.
3 And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.
4 And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against thee.
5 But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.
6 Now at that feast he released unto them one prisoner, whomsoever they desired.
7 And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.
8 And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto them.
9 But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews?
10 For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.
11 But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them.
12 And Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will ye then that I shall do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews?
13 And they cried out again, Crucify him.
14 Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.
15 And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.
16 And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and they call together the whole band.
17 And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head,
18 And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!
19 And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.
20 And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.
21 And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.
22 And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull.
23 And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not.
24 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.
25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.
26 And the superscription of his accusation was written over, The King Of The Jews.
27 And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.
28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors.
29 And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days,
30 Save thyself, and come down from the cross.
31 Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.
32 Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him.
33 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.
34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calleth Elias.
36 And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take him down.
37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.
38 And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.
39 And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.
40 There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;
41 (Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him;) and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem.
42 And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath,
43 Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus.
44 And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead.
45 And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.
46 And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre.
47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.
