52 Week Bible Reading Plan

Mark 15

1

And as soon as it was morning the chief priests, with the elders and scribes, and the whole council held a consultation; and they bound Jesus and led him away and delivered him to Pilate.

2

And Pilate asked him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" And he answered him, "You have said so."

3

And the chief priests accused him of many things.

4

And Pilate again asked him, "Have you no answer to make? See how many charges they bring against you."

5

But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate wondered.

6

Now at the feast he used to release for them one prisoner for whom they asked.

7

And among the rebels in prison, who had committed murder in the insurrection, there was a man called Barab'bas.

8

And the crowd came up and began to ask Pilate to do as he was wont to do for them.

9

And he answered them, "Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?"

10

For he perceived that it was out of envy that the chief priests had delivered him up.

11

But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release for them Barab'bas instead.

12

And Pilate again said to them, "Then what shall I do with the man whom you call the King of the Jews?"

13

And they cried out again, "Crucify him."

14

And Pilate said to them, "Why, what evil has he done?" But they shouted all the more, "Crucify him."

15

So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, released for them Barab'bas; and having scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.

16

And the soldiers led him away inside the palace (that is, the praetorium); and they called together the whole battalion.

17

And they clothed him in a purple cloak, and plaiting a crown of thorns they put it on him.

18

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

19

And they struck his head with a reed, and spat upon him, and they knelt down in homage to him.

20

And when they had mocked him, they stripped him of the purple cloak, and put his own clothes on him. And they led him out to crucify him.

21

And they compelled a passer-by, Simon of Cyre'ne, who was coming in from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to carry his cross.

22

And they brought him to the place called Gol'gotha (which means the place of a skull).

23

And they offered him wine mingled with myrrh; but he did not take it.

24

And they crucified him, and divided his garments among them, casting lots for them, to decide what each should take.

25

And it was the third hour, when they crucified him.

26

And the inscription of the charge against him read, "The King of the Jews."

27

And with him they crucified two robbers, one on his right and one on his left.

28

29

And those who passed by derided him, wagging their heads, and saying, "Aha! You who would destroy the temple and build it in three days,

30

save yourself, and come down from the cross!"

31

So also the chief priests mocked him to one another with the scribes, saying, "He saved others; he cannot save himself.

32

Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe." Those who were crucified with him also reviled him.

33

And when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.

34

And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, "E'lo-i, E'lo-i, la'ma sabach-tha'ni?" which means, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"

35

And some of the bystanders hearing it said, "Behold, he is calling Eli'jah."

36

And one ran and, filling a sponge full of vinegar, put it on a reed and gave it to him to drink, saying, "Wait, let us see whether Eli'jah will come to take him down."

37

And Jesus uttered a loud cry, and breathed his last.

38

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

39

And when the centurion, who stood facing him, saw that he thus breathed his last, he said, "Truly this man was the Son of God!"

40

There were also women looking on from afar, among whom were Mary Mag'dalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salo'me,

41

who, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered to him; and also many other women who came up with him to Jerusalem.

42

And when evening had come, since it was the day of Preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath,

43

Joseph of Arimathe'a, a respected member of the council, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, took courage and went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus.

44

And Pilate wondered if he were already dead; and summoning the centurion, he asked him whether he was already dead.

45

And when he learned from the centurion that he was dead, he granted the body to Joseph.

46

And he bought a linen shroud, and taking him down, wrapped him in the linen shroud, and laid him in a tomb which had been hewn out of the rock; and he rolled a stone against the door of the tomb.

47

Mary Mag'dalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw where he was laid.

Mark 16

1

And when the sabbath was past, Mary Mag'dalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salo'me, bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him.

2

And very early on the first day of the week they went to the tomb when the sun had risen.

3

And they were saying to one another, "Who will roll away the stone for us from the door of the tomb?"

4

And looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back; --it was very large.

5

And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe; and they were amazed.

6

And he said to them, "Do not be amazed; you seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen, he is not here; see the place where they laid him.

7

But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him, as he told you."

8

And they went out and fled from the tomb; for trembling and astonishment had come upon them; and they said nothing to any one, for they were afraid.

9

Now when he rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons.

10

She went and told those who had been with him, as they mourned and wept.

11

But when they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, they would not believe it.

12

After this he appeared in another form to two of them, as they were walking into the country.

13

And they went back and told the rest, but they did not believe them.

14

Afterward he appeared to the eleven themselves as they sat at table; and he upbraided them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they had not believed those who saw him after he had risen.

15

And he said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to the whole creation.

16

He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.

17

And these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak in new tongues;

18

they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will recover."

19

So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.

20

And they went forth and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the message by the signs that attended it. Amen.
