São João, 19

1. Pilatos mandou então flagelar Jesus.

1. Then therefore, Pilate took Jesus, and scourged him.

2. Os soldados teceram de espinhos uma coroa e puseram-lha sobre a cabeça e cobriram-no com um manto de púrpura.

2. And the soldiers platting a crown of thorns, put it upon his head; and they put on him a purple garment.

3. Aproximavam-se dele e diziam: “Salve, rei dos judeus!”. E davam-lhe bofetadas.

3. And they came to him, and said: Hail, king of the Jews; and they gave him blows.

4. Pilatos saiu outra vez e disse-lhes: “Eis que vo-lo trago fora, para que saibais que não acho nele nenhum motivo de acusação”.

4. Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith to them: Behold, I bring him forth unto you, that you may know that I find no cause in him.

5. Apareceu então Jesus, trazendo a coroa de espinhos e o manto de púrpura. Pilatos disse: “Eis o homem!”.

5. (Jesus therefore came forth, bearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment.) And he saith to them: Behold the Man.

6. Quando os pontífices e os guardas o viram, gritaram: “Crucifica-o! Crucifica-o. Falou-lhes Pilatos: “Tomai-o vós e crucificai-o, pois eu não acho nele culpa alguma”.

6. When the chief priests, therefore, and the servants, had seen him, they cried out, saying: Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith to them: Take him you, and crucify him: for I find no cause in him.

7. Responderam-lhe os judeus: “Nós temos uma Lei, e segundo essa Lei ele deve morrer, porque se declarou Filho de Deus”.

7. The Jews answered him: We have a law; and according to the law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.

8. Essas palavras impressionaram Pilatos.

8. When Pilate therefore had heard this saying, he feared the more.

9. Entrou novamente no pretório e perguntou a Jesus: “De onde és tu?”. Mas Jesus não lhe respondeu.

9. And he entered into the hall again, and he said to Jesus: Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.

10. Pilatos então lhe disse: “Tu não me respondes? Não sabes que tenho poder para te soltar e para te crucificar?”.

10. Pilate therefore saith to him: Speakest thou not to me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and I have power to release thee?

11. Respondeu Jesus: “Não terias poder algum sobre mim, se de cima não te fora dado. Por isso, quem me entregou a ti tem pecado maior”.

11. Jesus answered: Thou shouldst not have any power against me, unless it were given thee from above. Therefore, he that hath delivered me to thee, hath the greater sin.

12. Desde então Pilatos procurava soltá-lo. Mas os judeus gritavam: “Se o soltares, não és amigo do imperador, porque todo o que se faz rei se declara contra o imperador”.

12. And from henceforth Pilate sought to release him. But the Jews cried out, saying: If thou release this man, thou art not Caesar's friend. For whosoever maketh himself a king, speaketh against Caesar.

13. Ouvindo essas palavras, Pilatos trouxe Jesus para fora e sentou-se no tribunal, no lugar chamado Lajeado, em hebraico Gábata.*

13. Now when Pilate had heard these words, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat, in the place that is called Lithostrotos, and in Hebrew Gabbatha.

14. (Era a Preparação para a Páscoa, cerca da hora sexta.) Pilatos disse aos judeus: “Eis o vosso rei!”.*

14. And it was the parasceve of the pasch, about the sixth hour, and he saith to the Jews: Behold your king.

15. Mas eles clamavam: “Fora com ele! Fora com ele! Crucifica-o!”. Pilatos perguntou-lhes: “Hei de crucificar o vosso rei?”. Os sumos sacerdotes responderam: “Não temos outro rei senão César!”.

15. But they cried out: Away with him; away with him; crucify him. Pilate saith to them: Shall I crucify your king? The chief priests answered: We have no king but Caesar.

16. Entregou-o então a eles para que fosse crucificado. (= Mt 27,32-56 = Mc 15,21-41 = Lc 23,26-49)

16. Then therefore he delivered him to them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him forth.

17. Levaram então consigo Jesus. Ele próprio carregava a sua cruz para fora da cidade, em direção ao lugar chamado Calvário, em hebraico Gólgota.*

17. And bearing his own cross, he went forth to that place which is called Calvary, but in Hebrew Golgotha.

18. Ali o crucificaram, e com ele outros dois, um de cada lado, e Jesus no meio.

18. Where they crucified him, and with him two others, one on each side, and Jesus in the midst.

19. Pilatos redigiu também uma inscrição e a fixou por cima da cruz. Nela estava escrito: “Jesus de Nazaré, rei dos judeus”.

19. And Pilate wrote a title also, and he put it upon the cross. And the writing was: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

20. Muitos dos judeus leram essa inscrição, porque Jesus foi crucificado perto da cidade e a inscrição era redigida em hebraico, em latim e em grego.

20. This title therefore many of the Jews did read: because the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, in Greek, and in Latin.

21. Os sumos sacerdotes dos judeus disseram a Pilatos: “Não escrevas: Rei dos judeus, mas sim: Este homem disse ser o rei dos judeus”.

21. Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate: Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am the King of the Jews.

22. Respondeu Pilatos: “O que escrevi, escrevi”.

22. Pilate answered: What I have written, I have written.

23. Depois de os soldados crucificarem Jesus, tomaram as suas vestes e fizeram delas quatro partes, uma para cada soldado. A túnica, porém, toda tecida de alto a baixo, não tinha costura.

23. The soldiers therefore, when they had crucified him, took his garments, (and they made four parts, to every soldier a part,) and also his coat. Now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.

24. Disseram, pois, uns aos outros: “Não a rasguemos, mas deitemos sorte sobre ela, para ver de quem será”. Assim se cumpria a Escritura: Repartiram entre si as minhas vestes e deitaram sorte sobre a minha túnica (Sl 21,19). Isso fizeram os soldados.

24. They said then one to another: Let us not cut it, but let us cast lots for it, whose it shall be; that the scripture might be fulfilled, saying: They have parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture they have cast lot. And the soldiers indeed did these things.

25. Junto à cruz de Jesus estavam de pé sua mãe, a irmã de sua mãe, Maria, mulher de Cléofas, e Maria Madalena.

25. Now there stood by the cross of Jesus, his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalen.

26. Quando Jesus viu sua mãe e perto dela o discípulo que amava, disse à sua mãe: “Mulher, eis aí teu filho”.

26. When Jesus therefore had seen his mother and the disciple standing whom he loved, he saith to his mother: Woman, behold thy son.

27. Depois disse ao discípulo: “Eis aí tua mãe”. E dessa hora em diante o discípulo a recebeu como sua mãe.

27. After that, he saith to the disciple: Behold thy mother. And from that hour, the disciple took her to his own.

28. Em seguida, sabendo Jesus que tudo estava consumado, para se cumprir plenamente a Escritura, disse: “Tenho sede”.

28. Afterwards, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, said: I thirst.

29. Havia ali um vaso cheio de vinagre. Os soldados encheram de vinagre uma esponja e, fixando-a numa vara de hissopo, chegaram-lhe à boca.*

29. Now there was a vessel set there full of vinegar. And they, putting a sponge full of vinegar and hyssop, put it to his mouth.

30. Havendo Jesus tomado do vinagre, disse: “Tudo está consumado”. Inclinou a cabeça e entregou o espírito.

30. Jesus therefore, when he had taken the vinegar, said: It is consummated. And bowing his head, he gave up the ghost.

31. Os judeus temeram que os corpos ficassem na cruz durante o sábado, porque já era a Preparação e esse sábado era particularmente solene. Rogaram a Pilatos que se lhes quebrassem as pernas e fossem retirados.*

31. Then the Jews, (because it was the parasceve,) that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath day, (for that was a great sabbath day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

32. Vieram os soldados e quebraram as pernas do primeiro e do outro, que com ele foram crucificados.

32. The soldiers therefore came; and they broke the legs of the first, and of the other that was crucified with him.

33. Chegando, porém, a Jesus, como o vissem já morto, não lhe quebraram as pernas,

33. But after they were come to Jesus, when they saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.

34. mas um dos soldados abriu-lhe o lado com uma lança e, imediatamente, saiu sangue e água.

34. But one of the soldiers with a spear opened his side, and immediately there came out blood and water.

35. O que foi testemunha desse fato o atesta (e o seu testemunho é digno de fé, e ele sabe que diz a verdade), a fim de que vós creiais.

35. And he that saw it, hath given testimony, and his testimony is true. And he knoweth that he saith true; that you also may believe.

36. Assim se cumpriu a Escritura: Nenhum dos seus ossos será quebrado (Ex 12,46).*

36. For these things were done, that the scripture might be fulfilled: You shall not break a bone of him.

37. E diz em outra parte a Escritura: Olharão para aquele que trans­pas­sa­ram (Zc 12,10). (= Mt 27,57-61 = Mc 15,42-47 = Lc 23,50-56)

37. And again another scripture saith: They shall look on him whom they pierced.

38. Depois disso, José de Arimateia, que era discípulo de Jesus, mas ocultamente, por medo dos judeus, rogou a Pilatos a autori­zação para tirar o corpo de Jesus. Pilatos permitiu. Foi, pois, e tirou o corpo de Jesus.

38. And after these things, Joseph of Arimathea (because he was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews) besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus. And Pilate gave leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus.

39. Acompanhou-o Nicodemos (aquele que anterior­mente fora de noite ter com Jesus), levando umas cem libras de uma mistura de mirra e aloés.

39. And Nicodemus also came, (he who at the first came to Jesus by night,) bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.

40. Tomaram o corpo de Jesus e envolveram-no em panos com os aromas, como os judeus costumam sepultar.

40. They took therefore the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen cloths, with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.

41. No lugar em que ele foi crucificado havia um jardim, e no jardim um sepulcro novo, em que ninguém ainda fora depositado.

41. Now there was in the place where he was crucified, a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein no man yet had been laid.

42. Foi ali que depositaram Jesus por causa da Preparação dos judeus e da proximidade do túmulo. (= Mt 28,1-10 = Mc 16,1-10= Lc 24,1-12)

42. There, therefore, because of the parasceve of the Jews, they laid Jesus, because the sepulchre was nigh at hand.
