Luke 23

CHAPTER 23 Jesus Led unto Pilate

1 And having risen up, all the multitude of them led him unto Pilate. 2 And they began to charge him saying, This one we find perverting the nation, and preventing [³to Caesar ¹tribute ²to be given], saying himself [²Christ ³the king ¹to be]. 3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Are you the king of the Jews? And answering to him he said, You say it. 4 And Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, Not one [²do I find ¹fault] in this man. 5 And they grew more urgent and violent, saying that, He incites the people, teaching throughout entire Judea, beginning from Galilee unto here. 6 And Pilate having heard Galilee, asked if the man is a Galilean.

Pilate Sends Jesus to Herod

7 And having realized that [²under ³the ⁴authority ⁵of Herod ¹he is], he sent him to Herod, [²being ³also ¹he] in Jerusalem in these days. 8 And Herod beholding Jesus, rejoiced exceedingly, for he was wanting for a fit time to behold him, because of the hearing many things concerning him; and he hoped [²any ³sign ¹to behold] by him taking place. 9 And he asked him with [²of words ¹a fit amount]; but he [³nothing ¹answered ²to him]. 10 And standing by were the chief priests and the scribes, intensely charging him. 11 [⁵having treated ⁷with contempt ¹And ⁶him ²Herod ³with ⁴his military], and having mocked him, having put around him [²attire ¹bright], sent him back to Pilate. 12 And they became friends, both Pilate and Herod, in this day with one another; for beforehand [²at ³enmity ¹they were being] between themselves. 13 And Pilate, having called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people, 14 said to them, You brought to me this man as perverting the people. And behold, I before you having questioned him, [²nothing ¹find] in this man for a fault of which to lay charge against him, 15 and not even Herod; for I sent you to him; and behold, nothing worthy of death is being acted by him. 16 Correcting him then, I will release him. 17 (And by necessity he had to release to them each holiday one person). 18 But they shouted aloud all at once, saying, Take this one, but release to us Barabbas; 19 who was on account of a certain insurrection having taken place in the city, and for murder, thrown into prison. 20 Then again, Pilate called out to them, wanting to release Jesus.

The Jews Ask to Crucify Jesus

21 But they were sounding out, saying, Crucify! Crucify him! 22 And the third time he said to them, For what evil did this one do? No fault for death do I find in him; correcting him then I will release him. 23 And they pressed [²voices ¹with great], asking for him to be crucified. And [³prevailed ²voices ¹their] and of the chief priests. 24 And Pilate adjudged [²to take place ¹their request]. 25 And he released to them the one through insurrection and murder being thrown into the prison, whom they asked for; but Jesus he delivered up to their will. 26 And as they led him away, having taken hold of Simon, a certain Cyrenian, coming from the field, they placed upon him the cross, to bear it behind Jesus. 27 And were following him a great multitude of the people, and women, which also were beating their chest and wailing over him. 28 And having turned to them, Jesus said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me! furthermore, [²for ³yourselves ¹weep], and for your children! 29 For behold, there come days in which they shall say, Blessed are the sterile, and bellies which bore not, and breasts which nursed not. 30 Then they shall begin to say to the mountains, Fall upon us! And to the hills, Cover us! 31 For if in the wet wood these things they do, [³in ⁴the ⁵dry ¹what ²should happen]?

The Crucifixion of Jesus

32 And they led also other two evildoers with him to be done away with. 33 And when they went forth unto the place being called Skull, there they crucified him, and the evildoers, one on the right, and one on the left. 34 And Jesus said, O Father, forgive them! for they do not know what they do. And dividing his garments they cast a lot. 35 And [³stood ¹the ²people] viewing. And deriding also were the rulers with them, saying, Others he delivered, let him deliver himself! if this is the Christ, the one chosen of God. 36 [⁵mocked ¹And ⁶at him ⁴also ²the ³soldiers], coming forward and [²vinegar ¹bringing] to him, 37 and saying, If you are the king of the Jews, save yourself! 38 And there was also an inscription being depicted above him in letters in Greek, and Roman, and Hebrew -- This is the king of the Jews.

The Penitent Evildoer

39 And one of the hanging evildoers blasphemed him, saying, If you are the Christ, save yourself and us! 40 And responding the other reproached him, saying, Not even do you fear God, for [²under ³the ⁴same ⁵judgment ¹you are]? 41 And we indeed justly; for worthy of what we acted, we receive; but this one did not [²out of place ¹act]. 42 And he said to Jesus, Remember me, O Lord, whenever you should come in to your kingdom. 43 And [²said ³to him ¹Jesus], Amen I say to you, Today with me you will be in paradise.

Jesus Expires

44 And it was about [²hour ¹the sixth], and darkness came upon the entire land until [²hour ¹the ninth]. 45 And [³was darkened ¹the ²sun], and [⁵was split ¹the ²veil ³of the ⁴temple] in the middle. 46 And calling out [²voice ¹with a great], Jesus said, Father, into your hands I place my spirit. And these things having said he expired. 47 [⁴beholding ¹And ²the ³centurion] the thing taking place, glorified God, saying, Really, this man was righteous. 48 And all the [²coming together ¹multitudes] upon this sight, viewing the things having taken place, were beating themselves on the breast returning. 49 [⁶stood ¹And ²all ³the ones ⁴who knew ⁵him] afar off, even the women following him from Galilee, seeing these things.

The Burial of Jesus

50 And behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counselor, being [²man ¹a good] and just, 51 (this one was not assenting together with the counsel and their action) from Arimathea, a city of the Jews, who even was waiting also himself the kingdom of God. 52 This one came forward to Pilate to ask the body of Jesus. 53 And having lowered it, he swathed it in fine linen, and he put it in a tomb of dressed stone, of which was not yet any one being laid. 54 And [³day ¹it was ²preparation], and Sabbath evening coming on. 55 But following closely after also were women, (the ones who were gathered together to him from out of Galilee,) for seeing the sepulchre, and how [²was placed ¹his body]. 56 And having returned, they prepared aromatics and perfumed liquids; and on the Sabbath they were tranquil according to the commandment.
