Mark 15
The continuation of the history of the passion.
Et confestim mane consilium facientes summi sacerdotes cum senioribus, et scribis, et universo concilio, vincientes Jesum, duxerunt, et tradiderunt Pilato.
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.
Et interrogavit eum Pilatus: Tu es rex Judæorum? At ille respondens, ait illi: Tu dicis.
And Pilate asked him: Art thou the king of the Jews? But he answering, saith to him: Thou sayest it.
Et accusabant eum summi sacerdotes in multis.
And the chief priests accused him in many things.
Pilatus autem rursum interrogavit eum, dicens: Non respondes quidquam? vide in quantis te accusant.
And Pilate again asked him, saying: Answerest thou nothing? Behold in how many things they accuse thee.
Jesus autem amplius nihil respondit, ita ut miraretur Pilatus.
But Jesus still answered nothing: so that Pilate wondered.
Per diem autem festum solebat dimittere illis unum ex vinctis, quemcumque petissent.
Now on the festival day he was wont to release unto them one of the prisoners, whomsoever they demanded.
Erat autem qui dicebatur Barabbas, qui cum seditiosis erat vinctus, qui in seditione fecerat homicidium.
And there was one called Barabbas, who was put in prison with some seditious men, who in the sedition had committed murder.
Et cum ascendisset turba, cœpit rogare, sicut semper faciebat illis.
And when the multitude was come up, they began to desire that he would do as he had ever done unto them.
Pilatus autem respondit eis, et dixit: Vultis dimittam vobis regem Judæorum?
And Pilate answered them and said: Will you that I release to you the king of the Jews?
Sciebat enim quod per invidiam tradidissent eum summi sacerdotes.
For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him up out of envy.
Pontifices autem concitaverunt turbam, ut magis Barabbam dimitteret eis.
But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas to them.
Pilatus autem iterum respondens, ait illis: Quid ergo vultis faciam regi Judæorum?
And Pilate again answering, saith to them: What will you then that I do to the king of the Jews?
At illi iterum clamaverunt: Crucifige eum.
But they again cried out: Crucify him.
Pilatus vero dicebat illis: Quid enim mali fecit? At illi magis clamabant: Crucifige eum.
And Pilate saith to them: Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more: Crucify him.
Pilatus autem volens populo satisfacere, dimisit illis Barabbam, et tradidit Jesum flagellis cæsum, ut crucifigeretur.
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.
Milites autem duxerunt eum in atrium prætorii, et convocant totam cohortem,
And the soldiers led him away into the court of the palace: and they called together the whole band.

Et percutiebant caput ejus arundine: et conspuebant eum, et ponentes genua, adorabant eum.
And they struck his head with a reed: and they did spit on him. And bowing their knees, they adored him.
Et postquam illuserunt ei, exuerunt illum purpura, et induerunt eum vestimentis suis: et educunt illum ut crucifigerent eum.
And after they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him and put his own garments on him: and they led him out to crucify him.

salvum fac temetipsum descendens de cruce.
Save thyself, coming down from the cross.
Similiter et summi sacerdotes illudentes, ad alterutrum cum scribis dicebant: Alios salvos fecit; seipsum non potest salvum facere.
In like manner also the chief priests, mocking, said with the scribes one to another: He saved others; himself he cannot save.
