17 and he went out, bearing his own cross, to the place called The Place of a Skull, which in Aramaic is called Golgotha.18 There they crucified him, and with him two others, one on either side, and Jesus between them.19 Pilate also wrote an inscription and put it on the cross. It read, “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.”20 Many of the Jews read this inscription, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Aramaic, in Latin, and in Greek.21 So the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but rather, ‘This man said, I am King of the Jews.’”22 Pilate answered, “What I have written I have written.”23 When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his garments and divided them into four parts, one part for each soldier; also his tunic. But the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom,24 so they said to one another, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to see whose it shall be.” This was to fulfill the Scripture which says, “They divided my garments among them, and for my clothing they cast lots.” So the soldiers did these things,25 but standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.26 When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son!”27 Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.28 After this, Jesus, knowing that all was now finished, said (to fulfill the Scripture), “I thirst.”29 A jar full of sour wine stood there, so they put a sponge full of the sour wine on a hyssop branch and held it to his mouth.30 When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished,” and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.31 Since it was the day of Preparation, and so that the bodies would not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken away.32 So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who had been crucified with him.33 But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.34 But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once there came out blood and water.35 He who saw it has borne witness—his testimony is true, and he knows that he is telling the truth—that you also may believe.36 For these things took place that the Scripture might be fulfilled: “Not one of his bones will be broken.”37 And again another Scripture says, “They will look on him whom they have pierced.”38 After these things Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave him permission. So he came and took away his body.39 Nicodemus also, who earlier had come to Jesus by night, came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds in weight.40 So they took the body of Jesus and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as is the burial custom of the Jews.41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid.42 So because of the Jewish day of Preparation, since the tomb was close at hand, they laid Jesus there.
John 20
1 Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb.2 So she ran and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him.”3 So Peter went out with the other disciple, and they were going toward the tomb.4 Both of them were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first.5 And stooping to look in, he saw the linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in.6 Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb. He saw the linen cloths lying there,7 and the face cloth, which had been on Jesus' head, not lying with the linen cloths but folded up in a place by itself.8 Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went in, and he saw and believed;9 for as yet they did not understand the Scripture, that he must rise from the dead.10 Then the disciples went back to their homes.11 But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as she wept she stooped to look into the tomb.12 And she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and one at the feet.13 They said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him.”14 Having said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing, but she did not know that it was Jesus.15 Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?” Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away.”16 Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned and said to him in Aramaic, “Rabboni!” (which means Teacher).17 Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”18 Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord”—and that he had said these things to her.
Luke 23
26 And as they led him away, they seized one Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, and laid on him the cross, to carry it behind Jesus.27 And there followed him a great multitude of the people and of women who were mourning and lamenting for him.28 But turning to them Jesus said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.29 For behold, the days are coming when they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren and the wombs that never bore and the breasts that never nursed!’30 Then they will begin to say to the mountains, ‘Fall on us,’ and to the hills, ‘Cover us.’31 For if they do these things when the wood is green, what will happen when it is dry?”32 Two others, who were criminals, were led away to be put to death with him.33 And when they came to the place that is called The Skull, there they crucified him, and the criminals, one on his right and one on his left.34 And Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” And they cast lots to divide his garments.35 And the people stood by, watching, but the rulers scoffed at him, saying, “He saved others; let him save himself, if he is the Christ of God, his Chosen One!”36 The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and offering him sour wine37 and saying, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!”38 There was also an inscription over him, “This is the King of the Jews.”39 One of the criminals who were hanged railed at him, saying, “Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us!”40 But the other rebuked him, saying, “Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation?41 And we indeed justly, for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.”42 And he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.”43 And he said to him, “Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”44 It was now about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour,45 while the sun's light failed. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two.46 Then Jesus, calling out with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” And having said this he breathed his last.47 Now when the centurion saw what had taken place, he praised God, saying, “Certainly this man was innocent!”48 And all the crowds that had assembled for this spectacle, when they saw what had taken place, returned home beating their breasts.49 And all his acquaintances and the women who had followed him from Galilee stood at a distance watching these things.50 Now there was a man named Joseph, from the Jewish town of Arimathea. He was a member of the council, a good and righteous man,51 who had not consented to their decision and action; and he was looking for the kingdom of God.52 This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.53 Then he took it down and wrapped it in a linen shroud and laid him in a tomb cut in stone, where no one had ever yet been laid.54 It was the day of Preparation, and the Sabbath was beginning.55 The women who had come with him from Galilee followed and saw the tomb and how his body was laid.56 Then they returned and prepared spices and ointments. On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
Luke 24
1 But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared.2 And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb,3 but when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.4 While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel.5 And as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead?6 He is not here, but has risen. Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee,7 that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and on the third day rise.”
Mark 15
21 And they compelled a passerby, Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to carry his cross.22 And they brought him to the place called Golgotha (which means Place of a Skull).23 And they offered him wine mixed with myrrh, but he did not take it.24 And they crucified him and divided his garments among them, casting lots for them, to decide what each should take.25 And it was the third hour when they crucified him.26 And the inscription of the charge against him read, “The King of the Jews.”27 And with him they crucified two robbers, one on his right and one on his left.29 And those who passed by derided him, wagging their heads and saying, “Aha! You who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days,30 save yourself, and come down from the cross!”31 So also the chief priests with the scribes mocked him to one another, saying, “He saved others; he cannot save himself.32 Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross that we may see and believe.” Those who were crucified with him also reviled him.33 And 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 with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”35 And some of the bystanders hearing it said, “Behold, he is calling Elijah.”36 And someone ran and filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on a reed and gave it to him to drink, saying, “Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to take him down.”37 And Jesus uttered a loud cry and breathed his last.38 And the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom.39 And when the centurion, who stood facing him, saw that in this way he breathed his last, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God!”40 There were also women looking on from a distance, among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salome.41 When he was in Galilee, they followed him and ministered to him, and there were also many other women who came up with him to Jerusalem.42 And when evening had come, since it was the day of Preparation, that is, the day before the Sabbath,43 Joseph of Arimathea, a respected member of the Council, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, took courage and went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.44 Pilate was surprised to hear that he should have already died. And summoning the centurion, he asked him whether he was already dead.45 And when he learned from the centurion that he was dead, he granted the corpse to Joseph.46 And Joseph bought a linen shroud, and taking him down, wrapped him in the linen shroud and laid him in a tomb that had been cut out of the rock. And he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb.47 Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw where he was laid.
Mark 16
1 When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Salome bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him.2 And very early on the first day of the week, when the sun had risen, they went to the tomb.3 And they were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance of the tomb?”4 And looking up, they saw that the stone had been rolled back—it was very large.5 And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe, and they were alarmed.6 And he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen; he is not here. See the place where they laid him.7 But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you to Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.”8 And they went out and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment had seized them, and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.

Matthew
32 Ao saírem, encontraram um cireneu, chamado Simão, a quem obrigaram a carregar a cruz de Jesus.33 E, chegando a um lugar chamado Gólgota, que significa “Lugar da Caveira”,34 deram vinho com fel para Jesus beber; mas ele, provando-o, não quis beber.35 Depois de o crucificarem, repartiram entre si as roupas dele, tirando a sorte.36 E, assentados ali, o guardavam.37 Por cima da cabeça de Jesus puseram por escrito a acusação contra ele: “Este é Jesus, o Rei dos Judeus”.38 E dois ladrões foram crucificados com ele, um à sua direita e outro à sua esquerda.39 Os que iam passando blasfemavam contra ele, balançando a cabeça e dizendo:40 — Ei, você que destrói o santuário e em três dias o reedifica! Salve a si mesmo, se você é o Filho de Deus, e desça da cruz!41 De igual modo, os principais sacerdotes com os escribas e anciãos, zombando, diziam:42 — Salvou os outros, a si mesmo não pode salvar. É rei de Israel! Que ele desça da cruz, e então creremos nele.43 Confiou em Deus; pois que Deus venha livrá-lo agora, se, de fato, lhe quer bem; porque ele disse: “Sou Filho de Deus.”44 Também os ladrões que haviam sido crucificados com ele o insultavam.45 A partir do meio-dia, houve trevas sobre toda a terra até as três horas da tarde.46 Por volta de três horas da tarde, Jesus clamou em alta voz, dizendo: — Eli, Eli, lemá sabactani? — Isso quer dizer: “Deus meu, Deus meu, por que me desamparaste?”47 Alguns dos que estavam ali, ouvindo isto, diziam: — Ele chama por Elias.48 E, logo, um deles correu a buscar uma esponja e, tendo-a embebido em vinagre e colocado na ponta de um caniço, deu-lhe de beber.49 Os outros, porém, diziam: — Espere! Vejamos se Elias vem salvá-lo.50 E Jesus, clamando outra vez em alta voz, entregou o espírito.51 Eis que o véu do santuário se rasgou em duas partes, de alto a baixo; a terra tremeu e as rochas se partiram;52 os túmulos se abriram, e muitos corpos de santos já falecidos ressuscitaram;53 e, saindo dos túmulos depois da ressurreição de Jesus, entraram na cidade santa e apareceram a muitos.54 O centurião e os que com ele guardavam Jesus, vendo o terremoto e tudo o que se passava, ficaram possuídos de grande temor e disseram: — Verdadeiramente este era o Filho de Deus.55 Estavam ali muitas mulheres, observando de longe. Eram as que vinham seguindo Jesus desde a Galileia, para o servir.56 Entre elas estavam Maria Madalena, Maria, mãe de Tiago e de José, e a mulher de Zebedeu.57 Ao cair da tarde, veio um homem rico de Arimateia, chamado José, que era também discípulo de Jesus.58 Este foi até Pilatos e lhe pediu o corpo de Jesus. Então Pilatos mandou que o corpo lhe fosse entregue.59 E José, levando o corpo, envolveu-o num lençol limpo de linho60 e o depositou no seu túmulo novo, que ele tinha mandado abrir na rocha; e, rolando uma grande pedra para a entrada do túmulo, foi embora.61 Estavam ali, sentadas em frente do túmulo, Maria Madalena e a outra Maria.62 No dia seguinte, que é o dia depois da preparação, os principais sacerdotes e os fariseus se reuniram com Pilatos63 e lhe disseram: — Senhor, nós lembramos que aquele enganador, enquanto vivia, disse: “Depois de três dias ressuscitarei.”64 Portanto, mande que o túmulo seja guardado com segurança até o terceiro dia, para que não aconteça que, vindo os discípulos dele, o roubem e depois digam ao povo: “Ressuscitou dos mortos.” E este último engano será pior do que o primeiro.65 Pilatos respondeu: — Uma escolta está à disposição de vocês. Vão e guardem o túmulo como bem entenderem.66 Indo eles, montaram guarda ao túmulo, selando a pedra e deixando ali a escolta.
Matthew
1 Passado o sábado, no começo do primeiro dia da semana, Maria Madalena e a outra Maria foram ver o túmulo.2 E eis que houve um grande terremoto; porque um anjo do Senhor desceu do céu e, aproximando-se, removeu a pedra e sentou sobre ela.3 O aspecto dele era como um relâmpago, e a sua roupa era branca como a neve.4 E os guardas, com medo do anjo, tremeram e ficaram como se estivessem mortos.5 Mas o anjo, dirigindo-se às mulheres, disse: — Não tenham medo! Sei que vocês procuram Jesus, que foi crucificado.6 Ele não está aqui; ressuscitou, como tinha dito. Venham ver onde ele jazia.7 Agora vão depressa e digam aos seus discípulos que ele ressuscitou dos mortos e vai adiante de vocês para a Galileia; lá vocês o verão. É como acabei de dizer a vocês.8 E, retirando-se elas apressadamente do sepulcro, tomadas de medo e grande alegria, correram para anunciar isso aos discípulos.9 E eis que Jesus veio ao encontro delas e disse: — Salve! E elas, aproximando-se, abraçaram os pés dele e o adoraram.10 Então Jesus lhes disse: — Não tenham medo! Vão dizer aos meus irmãos que se dirijam à Galileia e lá eles me verão.
