And bearing the cross for Himself, He went out to the place called the Place of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha,

Where they crucified Him, and with Him two others, on this side and that, and Jesus in the middle.

And Pilate wrote a notice also and put it on the cross; and it was written, Jesus The Nazarene, The King Of The JEWS.

This notice therefore many of the Jews read, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in  ¹Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.

The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, Do not write, The King of the Jews, but that He said, I am the King of the Jews.

Pilate answered,  ¹What I have written, I have written.

The soldiers then, when they had crucified Jesus,  ¹took His garments and made four parts, a part for each soldier, and they took the  ²tunic as well. But the tunic was seamless, woven from the top throughout.

They said therefore to one another, Let us not tear it, but let us cast lots for it to see whose it shall be, that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says, “They divided My garments among themselves, and for My clothing they cast lots.” So then the soldiers  ¹did these things.

And there were standing by the cross of Jesus His mother and His mother's  ¹sister and Mary the wife of Clopas and Mary the Magdalene.

Then Jesus, seeing His mother and the disciple whom He loved standing by, said to His mother, Woman,  ¹behold, your son.

Then He said to the disciple,  ¹Behold, your mother. And from that hour the disciple took her into his own home.

After this, Jesus, knowing that all things had now been finished and so that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, I  ¹thirst.

There was lying there a vessel full of vinegar; therefore, they put a sponge full of vinegar on hyssop and brought it to His mouth.

Then when Jesus had taken the  ¹vinegar, He said, It is  ²finished! And He bowed His head and delivered up His spirit.

Then the Jews, since it was the day of preparation and so that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath day was a great Sabbath), requested of Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken away.

The soldiers therefore came and broke the legs of the first man and of the other man who had been crucified with Him.

But coming to Jesus, when they saw that He had already died, they did not break His legs;

But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately there came out blood and  ¹water.

And he who has seen this has testified, and his testimony is true; and he knows that he says what is true, that you also may believe.

For  ¹these things happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled: “No  ²bone of His shall be broken.”

And again another Scripture says, “They shall look on Him whom they pierced.”

And  ¹after these things Joseph from Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but a hidden one for fear of the Jews, requested of Pilate that he might take the body of Jesus away; and Pilate allowed it. He came therefore and took His body away.

And Nicodemus, he who had come to Him the first time by night, came also, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes of about a hundred  ¹pounds.

Therefore they took the body of Jesus and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as is the custom of the Jews for burying.

Now in the place where He was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever yet been laid.

Therefore because of the day of preparation for the Jews and because the tomb was near, they laid Jesus there.

The sons of Simeon: Nemuel and Jamin, Jarib, Zerah, Shaul;

Shallum his son, Mibsam his son, Mishma his son.

And the sons of Mishma: Hammuel his son, Zaccur his son, Shimei his son;

And Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters, but his brothers did not have many sons; neither did all their family multiply like the sons of Judah.

And they dwelt at Beer-sheba and Moladah and Hazar-shual,

And at Bilhah and at Ezem and at Tolad

And at Bethuel and at Hormah and at Ziklag

And at Beth-marcaboth and at Hazar-susim and at Beth-biri and at Shaaraim. These were their cities until the reign of David.

And their villages were Etam and Ain, Rimmon and Tochen and Ashan, five cities;

As well as all their villages which were around these cities, as far as Baal. These were their dwelling places and their genealogical enrollment.

And Meshobab and Jamlech and Joshah the son of Amaziah

And Joel and Jehu the son of Joshibiah, the son of Seraiah, the son of Asiel,

And Elioenai and Jaakobah and Jeshohaiah and Asaiah and Adiel and Jesimiel and Benaiah

And Ziza the son of Shiphi, the son of Allon, the son of Jedaiah, the son of Shimri, the son of Shemaiah—

These mentioned by name were leaders in their families; and their fathers' houses increased greatly.

And they went to the entrance of Gedor, as far as the east side of the valley, to seek pasture for their flocks.

And they found  ¹rich and good pasture and a spacious and quiet and peaceful land, for they who had formerly dwelt there were of Ham.

And these written by name came in the days of Hezekiah the king of Judah, and struck their tents and the Meunim who were found there, and destroyed them utterly, as they are to this day; and they have dwelt in place of them; for there was pasture there for their flocks.

And some of them from among the sons of Simeon, five hundred men, went to Mount Seir, having at their head Pelatiah and Neariah and Rephaiah and Uzziel, the sons of Ishi;

And they struck down the rest of the Amalekites who had escaped; and they have dwelt there to this day.

And the sons of  ¹Reuben the firstborn of Israel (for he was the firstborn; but because he defiled his father's bed, his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph the son of Israel; but he was not to be enrolled in the genealogy according to the birthright,

For Judah prevailed among his brothers, and from him was the leader, but the birthright was Joseph's)—

The sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel: Hanoch and Pallu, Hezron and Carmi.

The sons of Joel: Shemaiah his son, Gog his son, Shimei his son,

Micah his son, Reaiah his son, Baal his son,

Beerah his son, whom Tilgath-pilneser the king of Assyria carried away captive; he was the leader of the Reubenites.

And his brothers by their families, in the genealogical enrollment of their generations, were: Jeiel the chief and Zechariah

And Bela the son of Azaz, the son of Shema, the son of Joel, who dwelt in Aroer, as far as Nebo and Baal-meon;

And he dwelt on the east as far as the entrance to the wilderness from the river Euphrates; for their cattle were multiplied in the land of Gilead.

And in the days of Saul they waged war with the Hagarites, who fell by their hand; and they dwelt in their tents throughout the east side of Gilead.

And the children of Gad dwelt opposite them in the land of Bashan as far as Salecah.

Joel was the head and Shapham the next, then Jaanai, and Shaphat in Bashan.

And their brothers according to their fathers' houses were Michael and Meshullam and Sheba and Jorai and Jacan and Zia and Eber, seven.

These were the sons of Abihail, the son of Huri, the son of Jaroah, the son of Gilead, the son of Michael, the son of Jeshishai, the son of Jahdo, the son of Buz:

Ahi the son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, was the head of their fathers' house.

And they dwelt in Gilead in Bashan and in its towns and in all the pasture lands of Sharon as far as their limits.

All these were enrolled in genealogies in the days of Jotham the king of Judah and in the days of Jeroboam the king of Israel.

The children of Reuben and the Gadites and half the tribe of Manasseh were among the valiant men, men who carried shield and sword, and drew the bow and were skillful in war—forty-four thousand seven hundred sixty ready for war.

And they waged war with the Hagarites and Jetur and Naphish and Nodab;

And they were helped against them, and the Hagarites were delivered into their hand, as well as all who were with them; for they  ¹cried out to God in the battle, and He was entreated for them because they trusted in Him.

And they took their livestock: their fifty thousand camels, and two hundred fifty thousand sheep, and two thousand donkeys, as well as one hundred thousand people.

For many fell down slain, for the war was of God. And they dwelt in their place until the captivity.

And the children of the half-tribe of Manasseh dwelt in the land, from Bashan as far as Baal-hermon and Senir and Mount Hermon; they were many.

And these were the heads of their fathers' houses: Epher and Ishi and Eliel and Azriel and Jeremiah and Hodaviah and Jahdiel, mighty men of valor, famous men, heads of their fathers' houses.

But they trespassed against the God of their fathers, and went as harlots after the gods of the peoples of the land, whom God had destroyed before them.

And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul the king of Assyria and the spirit of Tilgath-pilneser the king of Assyria; and He carried them away, the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh, and brought them to Halah and Habor and Hara and to the river Gozan, where they are to this day.
