John 19 (WEBP)

[1] So Pilate then took Jesus and flogged him.
[2] The soldiers twisted thorns into a crown and put it on his head, and dressed him in a purple garment.
[3] They kept saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and they kept slapping him.
[4] Then Pilate went out again, and said to them, “Behold, I bring him out to you, that you may know that I find no basis for a charge against him.”
[5] Jesus therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. Pilate said to them, “Behold, the man!”
[6] When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they shouted, saying, “Crucify! Crucify!” Pilate said to them, “Take him yourselves and crucify him, for I find no basis for a charge against him.”
[7] The Jews answered him, “We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.”
[8] When therefore Pilate heard this saying, he was more afraid.
[9] He entered into the Praetorium again, and said to Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus gave him no answer.
[10] Pilate therefore said to him, “Aren’t you speaking to me? Don’t you know that I have power to release you and have power to crucify you?”
[11] Jesus answered, “You would have no power at all against me, unless it were given to you from above. Therefore he who delivered me to you has greater sin.”
[12] At this, Pilate was seeking to release him, but the Jews cried out, saying, “If you release this man, you aren’t Caesar’s friend! Everyone who makes himself a king speaks against Caesar!”
[13] When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called “The Pavement”, but in Hebrew, “Gabbatha.”
[14] Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, at about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, “Behold, your King!”
[15] They cried out, “Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Shall I crucify your King?” The chief priests answered, “We have no king but Caesar!”
[16] So then he delivered him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led him away.
[17] He went out, bearing his cross, to the place called “The Place of a Skull”, which is called in Hebrew, “Golgotha”,
[18] where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the middle.
[19] Pilate wrote a title also, and put it on the cross. There was written, “JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
[20] Therefore many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.
[21] The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, “Don’t write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but, ‘he said, “I am King of the Jews.” ’ ”
[22] Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
[23] Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
[24] Then they said to one another, “Let’s not tear it, but cast lots for it to decide whose it will be,” that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which says, “They parted my garments among them. They cast lots for my clothing.”
[25] But standing by Jesus’ cross were his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.
[26] Therefore when Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing there, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son!”
[27] Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” From that hour, the disciple took her to his own home.
[28] After this, Jesus, seeing that all things were now finished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I am thirsty!”
[29] Now a vessel full of vinegar was set there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop, and held it at his mouth.
[30] When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, “It is finished!” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
[31] Therefore the Jews, because it was the Preparation Day, so that the bodies wouldn’t remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken away.
[32] Therefore the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with him;
[33] but when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they didn’t break his legs.
[34] However, one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.
[35] He who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, that you may believe.
[36] For these things happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled, “A bone of him will not be broken.”
[37] Again another Scripture says, “They will look on him whom they pierced.”
[38] After these things, Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked of Pilate that he might take away Jesus’ body. Pilate gave him permission. He came therefore and took away his body.
[39] Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred Roman pounds.
[40] So they took Jesus’ body, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury.
[41] Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden. In the garden was a new tomb in which no man had ever yet been laid.
[42] Then, because of the Jews’ Preparation Day (for the tomb was near at hand), they laid Jesus there.

John 19:14 “the sixth hour” would have been 6:00 a.m. according to the Roman timekeeping system, or noon for the Jewish timekeeping system in use, then.

Young’s Literal Translation

John 19 (YLT)

[1] Then, therefore, did Pilate take Jesus and scourge him,
[2] and the soldiers having plaited a crown of thorns, did place it on his head, and a purple garment they put around him,
[3] and said, ‘Hail! the king of the Jews;’ and they were giving him slaps.
[4] Pilate, therefore, again went forth without, and saith to them, ‘Lo, I do bring him to you without, that ye may know that in him I find no fault;’
[5] Jesus, therefore, came forth without, bearing the thorny crown and the purple garment; and he saith to them, ‘Lo, the man!’
[6] When, therefore, the chief priests and the officers did see him, they cried out, saying, ‘Crucify, crucify;’ Pilate saith to them, ‘Take ye him-ye, and crucify; for I find no fault in him;’
[7] the Jews answered him, ‘We have a law, and according to our law he ought to die, for he made himself Son of God.’
[8] When, therefore, Pilate heard this word, he was the more afraid,
[9] and entered again to the praetorium, and saith to Jesus, ‘Whence art thou?’ and Jesus gave him no answer.
[10] Pilate, therefore, saith to him, ‘To me dost thou not speak? hast thou not known that I have authority to crucify thee, and I have authority to release thee?’
[11] Jesus answered, ‘Thou wouldest have no authority against me, if it were not having been given thee from above; because of this, he who is delivering me up to thee hath greater sin.’
[12] From this time was Pilate seeking to release him, and the Jews were crying out, saying, ‘If this one thou mayest release, thou art not a friend of Caesar; every one making himself a king, doth speak against Caesar.’
[13] Pilate, therefore, having heard this word, brought Jesus without-and he sat down upon the tribunal-to a place called, ‘Pavement,’ and in Hebrew, Gabbatha;
[14] and it was the preparation of the passover, and as it were the sixth hour, and he saith to the Jews, ‘Lo, your king!’
[15] and they cried out, ‘Take away, take away, crucify him;’ Pilate saith to them, ‘Your king shall I crucify?’ the chief priests answered, ‘We have no king except Caesar.’
[16] Then, therefore, he delivered him up to them, that he may be crucified, and they took Jesus and led him away,
[17] and bearing his cross, he went forth to the place called Place of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew Golgotha;
[18] where they crucified him, and with him two others, on this side, and on that side, and Jesus in the midst.
[19] And Pilate also wrote a title, and put it on the cross, and it was written, ‘Jesus the Nazarene, the king of the Jews;’
[20] this title, therefore, read many of the Jews, because the place was nigh to the city where Jesus was crucified, and it was having been written in Hebrew, in Greek, in Roman.
[21] The chief priests of the Jews said, therefore, to Pilate, ‘Write not-The king of the Jews, but that one said, I am king of the Jews;’
[22] Pilate answered, ‘What I have written, I have written.’
[23] The soldiers, therefore, when they did crucify Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to each soldier a part, also the coat, and the coat was seamless, from the top woven throughout,
[24] they said, therefore, to one another, ‘We may not rend it, but cast a lot for it, whose it shall be;’ that the Writing might be fulfilled, that is saying, ‘They divided my garments to themselves, and upon my raiment they did cast a lot;’ the soldiers, therefore, indeed, did these things.
[25] And there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary of Cleopas, and Mary the Magdalene;
[26] Jesus, therefore, having seen his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he was loving, he saith to his mother, ‘Woman, lo, thy son;’
[27] afterward he saith to the disciple, ‘Lo, thy mother;’ and from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.
[28] After this, Jesus knowing that all things now have been finished, that the Writing may be fulfilled, saith, ‘I thirst;’
[29] a vessel, therefore, was placed full of vinegar, and they having filled a sponge with vinegar, and having put it around a hyssop stalk, did put it to his mouth;
[30] when, therefore, Jesus received the vinegar, he said, ‘It hath been finished;’ and having bowed the head, gave up the spirit.
[31] The Jews, therefore, that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath, since it was the preparation, (for that sabbath day was a great one,) asked of Pilate that their legs may be broken, and they taken away.
[32] The soldiers, therefore, came, and of the first indeed they did break the legs, and of the other who was crucified with him,
[33] and having come to Jesus, when they saw him already having been dead, they did not break his legs;
[34] but one of the soldiers with a spear did pierce his side, and immediately there came forth blood and water;
[35] and he who hath seen hath testified, and his testimony is true, and that one hath known that true things he speaketh, that ye also may believe.
[36] For these things came to pass, that the Writing may be fulfilled, ‘A bone of him shall not be broken;’
[37] and again another Writing saith, ‘They shall look to him whom they did pierce.’
[38] And after these things did Joseph of Arimathea-being a disciple of Jesus, but concealed, through the fear of the Jews-ask of Pilate, that he may take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave leave; he came, therefore, and took away the body of Jesus,
[39] and Nicodemus also came-who came unto Jesus by night at the first-bearing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, as it were, a hundred pounds.
[40] They took, therefore, the body of Jesus, and bound it with linen clothes with the spices, according as it was the custom of the Jews to prepare for burial;
[41] and there was in the place where he was crucified a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one was yet laid;
[42] there, therefore, because of the preparation of the Jews, because the tomb was nigh, they laid Jesus.
