Knijga O Kristu

Ivan 19:1-42

Isus osuđen na smrt

1Pilat tada dade Isusa izbičevati. 2Vojnici spletu krunu od trnja, stave mu je na glavu i odjenu ga u grimizni plašt. 3“Živio kralj Židova!” rugali su mu i udarali ga po licu.

4Pilat ponovno iziđe i reče Židovima: “Evo, sad ću vam ga izvesti, ali znajte da ga ja ne smatram krivim.” 5Isus iziđe noseći trnovu krunu i grimizni plašt, a Pilat reče narodu: “Evo čovjeka!”

6Kada su ga svećenički poglavari i židovski stražari ugledali, stanu vikati: “Raspni ga! Raspni ga!”

“Raspnite ga sami!” reče im Pilat. “Ja ne držim da je kriv.”

7Židovi odgovore: “Prema našemu Zakonu mora umrijeti jer se pravio Božjim Sinom.”

8Kad je to čuo, Pilat se još više uplaši. 9Povede Isusa natrag u palaču i upita ga: “Odakle si?” Ali Isus mu na to ne odgovori. 10“Nećeš mi odgovoriti?” upita Pilat. “Ne shvaćaš li da imam vlast osloboditi te ili te raspeti?”

11Isus mu reče: “Ne bi ti imao nikakve vlasti nada mnom da ti nije dana odozgor. Zato je još veći grijeh onoga koji me je tebi predao.”

12Pilat ga je tada nastojao osloboditi, ali su mu židovski vođe rekli: “Oslobodiš li tog čovjeka, neprijatelj si caru! Tko se god izdaje za kralja, prevratnik je protiv cara.”

13Na te im riječi Pilat opet izvede Isusa pa sjedne na sudačku stolicu na kamenom popločenu postolju. 14Bilo je oko podneva, dan priprave za Pashu. Pilat reče Židovima: “Evo vašega kralja!”

15“Smakni ga!” vikali su. “Smakni ga! Raspni ga!”

“Što?! Da raspnem vašega kralja?” upita Pilat.

“Mi nemamo kralja osim cara!” odvrate svećenički poglavari.

16Tada im Pilat preda Isusa da se raspne.

Isusa raspinju na križ

(Mt 27:32-44; Mk 15:21-32; Lk 23:26-43)

Isusa odvedu. 17Noseći križ, otišao je do mjesta zvanoga Lubanja, ili hebrejski: Golgota. 18Ondje ga raspnu s još dvojicom, svakim s jedne strane, tako da je Isus bio u sredini. 19Pilat iznad njega dade postaviti natpis: “Isus Nazarećanin, kralj Židova.” 20Mnogi su Židovi pročitali taj natpis jer se mjesto na kojemu je Isus raspet nalazilo blizu grada; natpis je bio na hebrejskomu, latinskomu i grčkomu.

21Svećenički poglavari rekli su Pilatu: “Neka umjesto ‘kralj Židova’ stoji: ‘Za sebe je tvrdio: “Ja sam kralj Židova.”’”

22“Neka ostane kako sam napisao!” odgovori im Pilat.

23Pošto su vojnici raspeli Isusa, razdijele njegovu odjeću na četiri dijela, svakomu po jedan. Uzmu mu i košulju. Kako nije imala šava, već je bila otkana u jednome komadu, 24kazaše: “Nemojmo ju parati. Bacimo za nju kocku pa komu dopadne.” Time se ispunila riječ iz Svetoga pisma: “Razdijeliše među sobom moju odjeću, a za haljinu baciše kocku.”19:24 Psalam 22:19. Tako su i učinili.

25Nedaleko od križa stajale su Isusova majka Marija, njegova teta Marija Kleofina i Marija Magdalena. 26Kad Isus opazi svoju majku gdje stoji pokraj učenika kojega je osobito volio, reče joj: “Ženo, evo ti sina!” 27A učeniku reče: “Evo ti majke.” I od toga časa uzme ju taj učenik u svoj dom.

Isusova smrt

(Mt 27:45-56; Mk 15:33-41; Lk 23:44-49)

28Znajući da je sve svršeno, Isus reče: “Žedan sam”19:28 Vidjeti: Psalam 22:16; 69:22. da bi se ispunilo Sveto pismo. 29Ondje je stajala posuda s octom pa u ocat namoče spužvu, stave ju na izopovu trsku i primaknu Isusovim ustima. 30Kad Isus okusi ocat, reče: “Svršeno je!” Glava mu klone i on preda svoj duh.

31Kako je bilo vrijeme Priprave, židovski vođe nisu htjeli da tijela raspetih ostanu na križevima i tijekom subote koja je bila velik blagdan, Pasha. Stoga zamole Pilata da zapovjedi da se raspetima prebiju noge da brže umru kako bi ih mogli skinuti s križa. 32Vojnici dođu i prebiju noge dvojici raspetih s Isusom. 33Kad su došli do Isusa, vidjeli su da je već mrtav, pa mu nisu prebili noge, 34nego mu jedan od vojnika kopljem probode bok iz kojega odmah poteku krv i voda. 35To je izvještaj očevica koji točno opisuje što je vidio da i vi možete vjerovati. 36Sve se to dogodilo da bi se obistinile riječi Svetoga pisma: “Nijedna mu se kost neće slomiti”19:36 Izlazak 12:46; Brojevi 9:12; Psalam 34:21. 37i “Gledat će onoga koga su proboli.”19:37 Zaharija 12:10.

Isusov ukop

(Mt 27:57-61; Mk 15:42-47; Lk 23:50-56)

38Nakon toga Josip iz Arimateje, koji je bio Isusov učenik, ali je to tajio zbog straha od židovskih vođa, zamoli Pilata da mu dopusti uzeti Isusovo tijelo. Pilat mu dopusti pa Josip dođe i skine Isusovo tijelo. 39Došao je i Nikodem, koji je posjetio Isusa noću, i donio trideset litara ulja od smirne i aloje za pomazanje tijela. 40Umotali su Isusovo tijelo u dugačko platno natopljeno mirisima, kako je već u Židova bio običaj pri ukopu. 41U blizini mjesta na kojemu je Isus bio raspet nalazio se vrt s posve novim grobom u kojega još nitko nije bio položen. 42Kako je grob bio blizu, a valjalo je žuriti zbog Priprave, ondje polože Isusa.

New International Reader’s Version

John 19:1-42

Jesus Is Sentenced to Be Crucified

1Then Pilate took Jesus and had him whipped. 2The soldiers twisted thorns together to make a crown. They put it on Jesus’ head. Then they put a purple robe on him. 3They went up to him again and again. They kept saying, “We honor you, king of the Jews!” And they slapped him in the face.

4Once more Pilate came out. He said to the Jews gathered there, “Look, I am bringing Jesus out to you. I want to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against him.” 5Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. Then Pilate said to them, “Here is the man!”

6As soon as the chief priests and their officials saw him, they shouted, “Crucify him! Crucify him!”

But Pilate answered, “You take him and crucify him. I myself find no basis for a charge against him.”

7The Jewish leaders replied, “We have a law. That law says he must die. He claimed to be the Son of God.”

8When Pilate heard that, he was even more afraid. 9He went back inside the palace. “Where do you come from?” he asked Jesus. But Jesus did not answer him. 10“Do you refuse to speak to me?” Pilate said. “Don’t you understand? I have the power to set you free or to nail you to a cross.”

11Jesus answered, “You were given power from heaven. If you weren’t, you would have no power over me. So the one who handed me over to you is guilty of a greater sin.”

12From then on, Pilate tried to set Jesus free. But the Jewish leaders kept shouting, “If you let this man go, you are not Caesar’s friend! Anyone who claims to be a king is against Caesar!”

13When Pilate heard that, he brought Jesus out. Pilate sat down on the judge’s seat. It was at a place called the Stone Walkway. In the Aramaic language it was called Gabbatha. 14It was about noon on Preparation Day in Passover Week.

“Here is your king,” Pilate said to the Jews.

15But they shouted, “Take him away! Take him away! Crucify him!”

“Should I crucify your king?” Pilate asked.

“We have no king but Caesar,” the chief priests answered.

16Finally, Pilate handed Jesus over to them to be nailed to a cross.

Jesus Is Nailed to a Cross

So the soldiers took charge of Jesus. 17He had to carry his own cross. He went out to a place called the Skull. In the Aramaic language it was called Golgotha. 18There they nailed Jesus to the cross. Two other men were crucified with him. One was on each side of him. Jesus was in the middle.

19Pilate had a notice prepared. It was fastened to the cross. It read,

Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.

20Many of the Jews read the sign. That’s because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city. And the sign was written in the Aramaic, Latin and Greek languages. 21The chief priests of the Jews argued with Pilate. They said, “Do not write ‘The King of the Jews.’ Write that this man claimed to be king of the Jews.”

22Pilate answered, “I have written what I have written.”

23When the soldiers crucified Jesus, they took his clothes. They divided them into four parts. Each soldier got one part. All that was left was Jesus’ long, inner robe. It did not have any seams. It was made out of one piece of cloth from top to bottom.

24“Let’s not tear it,” they said to one another. “Let’s cast lots to see who will get it.”

This happened so that Scripture would come true. It says,

“They divided up my clothes among them.

They cast lots for what I was wearing.” (Psalm 22:18)

So that is what the soldiers did.

25Jesus’ mother stood near his cross. So did his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. 26Jesus saw his mother there. He also saw the disciple he loved standing nearby. Jesus said to his mother, “Dear woman, here is your son.” 27He said to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” From that time on, the disciple took her into his home.

Jesus Dies

28Later, Jesus knew that everything had now been finished. He also knew that what Scripture said must come true. So he said, “I am thirsty.” 29A jar of wine vinegar was there. So they soaked a sponge in it. They put the sponge on the stem of a hyssop plant. Then they lifted it up to Jesus’ lips. 30After Jesus drank he said, “It is finished.” Then he bowed his head and died.

31It was Preparation Day. The next day would be a special Sabbath day. The Jewish leaders did not want the bodies left on the crosses during the Sabbath day. So they asked Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies taken down. 32The soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man who had been crucified with Jesus. Then they broke the legs of the other man. 33But when they came to Jesus, they saw that he was already dead. So they did not break his legs. 34Instead, one of the soldiers stuck his spear into Jesus’ side. Right away, blood and water flowed out. 35The man who saw it has been a witness about it. And what he has said is true. He knows that he tells the truth. He is a witness so that you also may believe. 36These things happened in order that Scripture would come true. It says, “Not one of his bones will be broken.” (Exodus 12:46; Numbers 9:12; Psalm 34:20) 37Scripture also says, “They will look to the one they have pierced.” (Zechariah 12:10)

Jesus Is Buried

38Later Joseph asked Pilate for Jesus’ body. Joseph was from the town of Arimathea. He was a follower of Jesus. But he followed Jesus secretly because he was afraid of the Jewish leaders. After Pilate gave him permission, Joseph came and took the body away. 39Nicodemus went with Joseph. He was the man who had earlier visited Jesus at night. Nicodemus brought some mixed spices that weighed about 75 pounds. 40The two men took Jesus’ body. They wrapped it in strips of linen cloth, along with the spices. That was the way the Jews buried people. 41At the place where Jesus was crucified, there was a garden. A new tomb was there. No one had ever been put in it before. 42That day was the Jewish Preparation Day, and the tomb was nearby. So they placed Jesus there.
