Marcum 15
1 Et confestim, mane consilium facientes summi sacerdotes cum senioribus, et Scribis, et universo concilio, vincientes Iesum, duxerunt, et tradiderunt Pilato.
Immediately in the morning the chief priests, with the elders, scribes, and the whole council, held a consultation, bound Jesus, carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate.
2 Et interrogavit eum Pilatus: Tu es rex Iudæorum? At ille respondens, ait illi: Tu dicis.
Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered, “So you say.”
3 Et accusabant eum summi sacerdotes in multis.
The chief priests accused him of many things.
4 Pilatus autem rursum interrogavit eum, dicens: Non respondes quidquam? vide in quantis te accusant.
Pilate again asked him, “Have you no answer? See how many things they testify against you!”
5 Iesus autem amplius nihil respondit, ita ut miraretur Pilatus.
But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate marvelled.
6 Per diem autem festum solebat dimittere illis unum ex vinctis, quemcumque petissent.
Now at the feast he used to release to them one prisoner, whomever they asked of him.
7 Erat autem qui dicebatur Barrabas, qui cum seditiosis erat vinctus, qui in seditione fecerat homicidium.
There was one called Barabbas, bound with his fellow insurgents, men who in the insurrection had committed murder.
8 Et cum ascendisset turba, cœpit rogare, sicut semper faciebat illis.
The multitude, crying aloud, began to ask him to do as he always did for them.
9 Pilatus autem respondit eis, et dixit: Vultis dimittam vobis regem Iudæorum?
Pilate answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”
10 Sciebat enim quod per invidiam tradidissent eum summi sacerdotes.
For he perceived that for envy the chief priests had delivered him up.
11 Pontifices autem concitaverunt turbam, ut magis Barabbam dimitteret eis.
But the chief priests stirred up the multitude, that he should release Barabbas to them instead.
12 Pilatus autem iterum respondens, ait illis: Quid ergo vultis faciam regi Iudæorum?
Pilate again asked them, “What then should I do to him whom you call the King of the Jews?”
13 At illi iterum clamaverunt: Crucifige eum.
They cried out again, “Crucify him!”
14 Pilatus vero dicebat illis: Quid enim mali fecit? At illi magis clamabant: Crucifige eum.
Pilate said to them, “Why, what evil has he done?” But they cried out exceedingly, “Crucify him!”
15 Pilatus autem volens populo satisfacere, dimisit illis Barabbam, et tradidit Iesum flagellis cæsum, ut crucifigeretur.
Pilate, wishing to please the multitude, released Barabbas to them, and handed over Jesus, when he had flogged him, to be crucified.

When they had mocked him, they took the purple cloak off him, and put his own garments on him. They led him out to crucify him.

Those who passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads and saying, “Ha! You who destroy the temple and build it in three days,
30 salvum fac temetipsum descendens de cruce.
