Evangelium secundum Marcum, 15

1. et confestim mane consilium facientes summi sacerdotes cum senioribus et scribis et universo concilio vincientes Jesum duxerunt et tradiderunt Pilato

1. And straightway in the morning, the chief priests holding a consultation with the ancients and the scribes and the whole council, binding Jesus, led him away, and delivered him to Pilate.

2. et interrogavit eum Pilatus tu es rex Judæorum at ille respondens ait illi tu dicis

2. And Pilate asked him: Art thou the king of the Jews? But he answering, saith to him: Thou sayest it.

3. et accusabant eum summi sacerdotes in multis

3. And the chief priests accused him in many things.

4. Pilatus autem rursum interrogavit eum dicens non respondes quicquam vide in quantis te accusant

4. And Pilate again asked him, saying: Answerest thou nothing? behold in how many things they accuse thee.

5. Jesus autem amplius nihil respondit ita ut miraretur Pilatus

5. But Jesus still answered nothing; so that Pilate wondered.

6. per diem autem festum dimittere solebat illis unum ex vinctis quemcumque petissent

6. Now on the festival day he was wont to release unto them one of the prisoners, whomsoever they demanded.

7. erat autem qui dicebatur Barabbas qui cum seditiosis erat vinctus qui in seditione fecerant homicidium

7. And there was one called Barabbas, who was put in prison with some seditious men, who in the sedition had committed murder.

8. et cum ascendisset turba cœpit rogare sicut semper faciebat illis

8. And when the multitude was come up, they began to desire that he would do, as he had ever done unto them.

9. Pilatus autem respondit eis et dixit vultis dimittam vobis regem Judæorum

9. And Pilate answered them, and said: Will you that I release to you the king of the Jews?

10. sciebat enim quod per invidiam tradidissent eum summi sacerdotes

10. For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him up out of envy.

11. pontifices autem concitaverunt turbam ut magis Barabban dimitteret eis

11. But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas to them.

12. Pilatus autem iterum respondens ait illis quid ergo vultis faciam regi Judæorum

12. And Pilate again answering, saith to them: What will you then that I do to the king of the Jews?

13. at illi iterum clamaverunt crucifige eum

13. But they again cried out: Crucify him.

14. Pilatus vero dicebat eis quid enim mali fecit at illi magis clamabant crucifige eum

14. And Pilate saith to them: Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more: Crucify him.

15. Pilatus autem volens populo satisfacere dimisit illis Barabban et tradidit Jesum flagellis cæsum ut crucifigeretur

15. And so Pilate being willing to satisfy the people, released to them Barabbas, and delivered up Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.

16. milites autem duxerunt eum intro in atrium prætorii et convocant totam cohortem
