Then they came to a place called Gethsemane, and Jesus told His disciples, "Sit here while I pray."

And again Jesus returned and found them sleeping-for their eyes were heavy. And they did not know what to answer Him.

They led Jesus away to the high priest, and all the chief priests, elders, and scribes assembled.

Now the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, but they did not find any.

You have heard the blasphemy. What is your verdict?" And they all condemned Him as deserving of death.

Then some of them began to spit on Him. They blindfolded Him, struck Him with their fists, and said to Him, "Prophesy!" And the officers received Him with slaps in His face.

Early in the morning, the chief priests, elders, scribes, and the whole Sanhedrin devised a plan. They bound Jesus, led Him away, and handed Him over to Pilate.

And they shouted back, "Crucify Him!"

They dressed Him in a purple robe, twisted together a crown of thorns, and set it on His head.

And they began to salute Him: "Hail, King of the Jews!"

They kept striking His head with a staff and spitting on Him. And they knelt down and bowed before Him.

After they had mocked Him, they removed the purple robe and put His own clothes back on Him. Then they led Him out to crucify Him.

And they crucified Him. They also divided His garments by casting lots to decide what each of them would take.

Along with Jesus, they crucified two robbers, one on His right and one on His left.

When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so they could go and anoint Jesus' body.

When they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed.

So the women left the tomb and ran away, trembling and bewildered. And in their fear they did not say a word to anyone.

And when they heard that Jesus was alive and she had seen Him, they did not believe it.

And they went back and reported it to the rest, but they did not believe them either.

Later as they were eating, Jesus appeared to the eleven and rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen Him after He had risen.
