ST. MARK, 15.

Anno 41 And he cometh the third time, and DOMINI saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. 42 Rise up, let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand.

45 And as soon as he was come. he goeth straightway to him, and saith, 20 Master 20, 8 master 8; and 21 kissed him 21.

46 And they laid their hands on him, and took him.

47 And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear. 48 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Are ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and with staves to take me?

49 I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me not: but 22 the scriptures must be fulfilled 22.

50 And they all forsook him, and fled. 51 And there 23 followed 23 him a certain young man, having a linen cloth 24 cast about his naked body; and ẞ the young men laid B hold on him:

52 And he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.

53 And they led Jesus away to the high priest and 258 with himß were assembled 25 all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.

54 And Peter followed him afar off, even 26 into the palace 26 of the high priest : and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire.

63 Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What need we any further witnesses?

64 Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they all condemned him to be guilty of death.

65 And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say unto him, Prophesy: and the servants 8 did strike him 3 2 with the palms of their hands 25.

66 And as Peter was beneath in the 4 Mitt 29 palace 29, there cometh one of the maids of the high priest:

67 And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and said. And thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth 8. 68 But he denied, saying, BI know not, neither understand B I what thou sayest. And he went out into 30 the porch *; y and the cock crew

9 But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews?

10 For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.

11 But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them.

12 And Pilate B answered and said a gain 8 unto them, y What will ye then that I shall do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews y?

13 And they cried out again, Crucify

him.

14 Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more ß exceedingly, Crucify him. 15 And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.

16 And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Prætorium; and they call together the whole 7 band 7.

17 And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head,

18 And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!

19 And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.

20 And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.

28 B And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors B.

29 And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days,

30 Save thyself, B and come down ẞ from the cross.

31 Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.

32 Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him. 33 And

when the sixth hour was come, 10 there was 10 darkness over the whole 11 land until the ninth hour.

36 And one ran and filled a spungey Matt. 27. full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take him down.

38 And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom. 39 And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so B cried out, and ß gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was 12 the Son of God 12.
