71 saying, I know not what thou sayest. And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and saith unto them that were there, This man also 72 was with Jesus the Nazarene. And again he denied 73 with an oath, I know not the man. And after a little while they that stood by came and said to Peter, Of a truth thou also art one of them; for thy speech 74 bewrayeth thee. Then began he to curse and to swear, I know not the man. And straightway the cock crew. 75 And Peter remembered the word which Jesus had said, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.

27 Now when morning was come, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus 2 to put him to death: and they bound him, and led him away, and delivered him up to Pilate the go

1 Or, a feast Now at the feast the governor was wont to release 15 unto the multitude one prisoner, whom they would. And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas. 16 When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate 17 said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ? For he 18 knew that for envy they had delivered him up. And 19 while he was sitting on the judgement-seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that righteous man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him. Now the chief priests 20 and the elders persuaded the multitudes that they should ask for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus. But the 21 governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? And they said, Barabbas. Pilate saith unto them, What then shall I 22 do unto Jesus which is called Christ? They all say, Let him be crucified. And he said, Why, what evil 23 hath he done? But they cried out exceedingly, saying, Let him be crucified. So when Pilate saw that 24 he prevailed nothing, but rather that a tumult was arising, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent 2 of the blood of this righteous man: see ye to it. And all the people 25 read of this answered and said, His blood be on us, and on our children. Then released he unto them Barabbas: but 26 Jesus he scourged and delivered to be crucified.

they that were with him watching Jesus, when they saw the earthquake, and the things that were done, 1 Or, a son of feared exceedingly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God. And many women were there beholding from 55 afar, which had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and 56 Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

And when even was come, there came a rich man 57 from Arimathæa, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple: this man went to Pilate, and asked for 58 the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded it to be given up. And Joseph took the body, and wrapped 59 it in a clean linen cloth, and laid it in his own new 60 tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb, and departed. And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other 61 Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.

Now on the morrow, which is the day after the 62 Preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees were gathered together unto Pilate, saying, Sir, we remem- 63 ber that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I rise again. Command therefore 64 that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest haply his disciples come and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: and the last error will be worse than the first. Pilate said 65 2 Or, Take a unto them, 2 Ye have a guard: go your way, make guard it as sure as ye can. So they went, and made the 66 sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, the guard being with them.

Now late on the sabbath day, as it began to dawn 28 toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled away the stone, and sat upon it. His appearance was as 3 lightning, and his raiment white as snow: and for fear 4 of him the watchers did quake, and became as dead men. And the angel answered and said unto the 5 women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus,

And they departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to bring his 9 disciples word. And behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and took hold of his feet, 10 and worshipped him. Then saith Jesus unto them, Fear not go tell my brethren that they depart into Galilee, and there shall they see me.

11

Now while they were going, behold, some of the guard came into the city, and told unto the chief 12 priests all the things that were come to pass. And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers, 13 saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole 14 him away while we slept. And if this 2 come to the 2 Or, come governor's ears, we will persuade him, and rid you before the 15 of care. So they took the money, and did as they governor were taught and this saying was spread abroad among the Jews, and continueth until this day.

But the eleven disciples went into Galilee, unto the 17 mountain where Jesus had appointed them. And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some 18 doubted. And Jesus came to them and spake unto them, saying, All authority hath been given unto me 19 in heaven and on earth. Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy 20 Ghost teaching them to observe all things ever I commanded you and lo, I am with you even unto the end of the world.
