Mark 15 — Side by side (WEB, ASV, BBE, DBY)

1And straightway in the morning the chief priests with the elders and scribes, and the whole council, held a consultation, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate.

1And the first thing in the morning the chief priests, with those in authority and the scribes and all the Sanhedrin, had a meeting, and put cords round Jesus, and took him away, and gave him up to Pilate.

1And immediately in the morning the chief priests, having taken counsel with the elders and scribes and the whole sanhedrim, bound Jesus and carried [him] away, and delivered [him] up to Pilate.

2And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering saith unto him, Thou sayest.

2And Pilate put a question to him, Are you the King of the Jews? And he, answering, said to him, You say so.

2And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered and said to him, Thou sayest.

3And the chief priests accused him of many things.

3And the chief priests said a number of things against him.

3And the chief priests accused him urgently.

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

4And Pilate again put a question, Do you say nothing in answer? see how much evil they say you have done.

4And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? See of how many things they bear witness against thee.

5But Jesus no more answered anything; insomuch that Pilate marvelled.

5But Jesus gave no more answers, so that Pilate was full of wonder.

5But Jesus still answered nothing, so that Pilate marvelled.

6Now at the feast he used to release unto them one prisoner, whom they asked of him.

6Now at the feast every year he let one prisoner go free at their request.

6But at [the] feast he released to them one prisoner, whomsoever they begged [of him].

7And there was one called Barabbas, lying bound with them that had made insurrection, men who in the insurrection had committed murder.

7And there was one named Barabbas, in prison with those who had gone against the government and in the fight had taken life.

7Now there was the [person] named Barabbas bound with those who had made insurrection with [him], [and] that had committed murder in the insurrection.

8And the multitude went up and began to ask him to do as he was wont to do unto them.

8And the people went up, requesting him to do as he had done for them in other years.

8And the crowd crying out began to beg [that he would do] to them as he had always done.

9And Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews?

9And Pilate said in answer to them, Is it your desire that I let the King of the Jews go free?

9But Pilate answered them saying, Will ye that I release to you the King of the Jews?

10For he perceived that for envy the chief priests had delivered him up.

10For he saw that the chief priests had given him up through envy.

10for he knew that the chief priests had delivered him up through envy.

11But the chief priests stirred up the multitude, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them.

11But the people were moved by the chief priests to make him let Barabbas go free.

11But the chief priests stirred up the crowd that he might rather release Barabbas to them.

12And Pilate again answered and said unto them, What then shall I do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews?

12And Pilate again said in answer to them, What then am I to do to him to whom you give the name of the King of the Jews?

12And Pilate answering said to them again, What will ye then that I do [to him] whom ye call King of the Jews?

13And they cried out again, Crucify him.

13And they said again loudly, To the cross with him!

13And they cried out again, Crucify him.

14And Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out exceedingly, Crucify him.

14And Pilate said to them, Why, what evil has he done? But their cry was the louder, To the cross!

14And Pilate said to them, What evil then has he done? But they cried out the more urgently, Crucify him.

15And Pilate, wishing to content the multitude, released unto them Barabbas, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.

15And Pilate, desiring to do what was pleasing to the people, let Barabbas go free, and gave up Jesus, when he had been whipped, to be put to death on the cross.

15And Pilate, desirous of contenting the crowd, released to them Barabbas, and delivered up Jesus, when he had scourged him, that he might be crucified.

16And the soldiers led him away within the court, which is the Prætorium; and they call together the whole band.

19And they smote his head with a reed, and spat upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.

19And they gave him blows on the head with a stick and put shame on him and, going down on their knees, gave him worship.

19And they struck his head with a reed, and spat on him, and, bending the knee, did him homage.

20And when they had mocked him, they took off from him the purple, and put on him his garments. And they lead him out to crucify him.

20And when they had made sport of him, they took the purple robe off him and put his clothing on him. And they took him out to put him to death on the cross.

20And when they had mocked him, they took the purple off him, and put his own clothes on him; and they lead him out that they may crucify him.

30save thyself, and come down from the cross.

30Keep yourself from death, and come down from the cross.

30save thyself, and descend from the cross.

31In like manner also the chief priests mocking him among themselves with the scribes said, He saved others; himself he cannot save.

31In the same way the chief priests, laughing at him among themselves with the scribes, said, A saviour of others, he has no salvation for himself.

31In like manner the chief priests also, with the scribes, mocking with one another, said, He saved others; himself he cannot save.

44And Pilate was surprised that he was dead; and, sending for the captain, he put a question to see if he had been dead for long.
