GREK 5230: Matthew 27:45–66

Now around the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?”—that is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

τινὲς δὲ τῶν ἐκεῖ ἑστηκότων ἀκούσαντες ἔλεγον ὅτι Ἠλίαν φωνεῖ οὗτος.

Now some of those who were standing there, hearing, said, “This man is calling for Elijah.”

situationresponse

καὶ εὐθέως δραμὼν εἷς ἐξ αὐτῶν καὶ λαβὼν σπόγγον πλήσας τε ὄξους καὶ περιθεὶς καλάμῳ ἐπότιζεν αὐτόν.

And immediately one of them, running and taking a sponge, filling it with sour wine and putting it on a reed, was giving him a drink.

οἱ δὲ λοιποὶ ἔλεγον· ἄφες ἴδωμεν εἰ ἔρχεται Ἠλίας σώσων αὐτόν.

But the rest of them were saying, “Let us see if Elijah comes to save him.”

ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς πάλιν κράξας φωνῇ μεγάλῃ ἀφῆκεν τὸ πνεῦμα.

Now Jesus, crying out again with a loud voice, gave up the spirit.

Καὶ ἰδοὺ τὸ καταπέτασμα τοῦ ναοῦ ἐσχίσθη ἀπ᾽ ἄνωθεν ἕως κάτω εἰς δύο

And behold, the curtain of the temple was torn from top to bottom in two,

καὶ ἡ γῆ ἐσείσθη

and the earth was shaken,

καὶ αἱ πέτραι ἐσχίσθησαν,

and the rocks were split.

καὶ τὰ μνημεῖα ἀνεῴχθησαν

And the tombs were opened,

καὶ πολλὰ σώματα τῶν κεκοιμημένων ἁγίων ἠγέρθησαν,

and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised,

καὶ ἐξελθόντες ἐκ τῶν μνημείων μετὰ τὴν ἔγερσιν αὐτοῦ εἰσῆλθον εἰς τὴν ἁγίαν πόλιν καὶ ἐνεφανίσθησαν πολλοῖς.

and coming out of the tombs after his resurrection, they entered the holy city and appeared to many.

Now a centurion, and those who were with him keeping guard over Jesus, seeing the earthquake and the things happening, were extremely terrified, saying, “Truly, this was a/the Son of God.”

Ἦσαν δὲ ἐκεῖ γυναῖκες πολλαὶ ἀπὸ μακρόθεν θεωροῦσαι, αἵτινες ἠκολούθησαν τῷ Ἰησοῦ ἀπὸ τῆς Γαλιλαίας διακονοῦσαι αὐτῷ·

Now many women were there watching from a distance who had followed Jesus from Galilee ministering to him,

ἐν αἷς ἦν Μαρία ἡ Μαγδαληνὴ καὶ Μαρία ἡ τοῦ Ἰακώβου καὶ Ἰωσὴφ μήτηρ καὶ ἡ μήτηρ τῶν υἱῶν Ζεβεδαίου.

among whom were Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Joseph and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

Τῇ δὲ ἐπαύριον, ἥτις ἐστὶν μετὰ τὴν παρασκευήν,

Now the next day, which is after the day of preparation,

συνήχθησαν οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ Φαρισαῖοι πρὸς Πιλᾶτον

the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered to Pilate,

λέγοντες·

saying,

κύριε, ἐμνήσθημεν ὅτι ἐκεῖνος ὁ πλάνος εἶπεν ἔτι ζῶν· μετὰ τρεῖς ἡμέρας ἐγείρομαι.

“Lord, we remember that, [while] still living, that deceiver said, ‘After three days, I am [to be] raised.’

κέλευσον οὖν ἀσφαλισθῆναι τὸν τάφον ἕως τῆς τρίτης ἡμέρας,

Therefore, give orders for the tomb to be secured until the third day,

μήποτε ἐλθόντες οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ κλέψωσιν αὐτὸν καὶ εἴπωσιν τῷ λαῷ· ἠγέρθη ἀπὸ τῶν νεκρῶν, καὶ ἔσται ἡ ἐσχάτη πλάνη χείρων τῆς πρώτης.

lest his disciples, coming, steal him and tell the people, ‘He was raised from the dead,’ and the last deception will be worse than the first.

Pilate said to them, “You have a custodian; go make it as secure as you know.”

οἱ δὲ πορευθέντες ἠσφαλίσαντο τὸν τάφον σφραγίσαντες τὸν λίθον μετὰ τῆς κουστωδίας.

Now going, they secured the tomb, sealing the stone with the guard.
