Luke  


23 : 1 Then the whole body of them got up and brought Him before Pilate.
23 : 2 And they began to accuse Him, saying, "We found this man misleading our nation and forbidding to pay taxes to Caesar, and saying that He Himself is Christ, a King."
23 : 3 So Pilate asked Him, saying, "Are You the King of the Jews?" And He answered him and said, "It is as you say."
23 : 4 Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, "I find no guilt in this man."
23 : 5 But they kept on insisting, saying, "He stirs up the people, teaching all over Judea, starting from Galilee even as far as this place."
23 : 6 When Pilate heard it, he asked whether the man was a Galilean.
23 : 7 And when he learned that He belonged to Herod`s jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who himself also was in Jerusalem at that time.
23 : 8 Now Herod was very glad when he saw Jesus; for he had wanted to see Him for a long time, because he had been hearing about Him and was hoping to see some sign performed by Him.
23 : 9 And he questioned Him at some length; but He answered him nothing.
23 : 10 And the chief priests and the scribes were standing there, accusing Him vehemently.
23 : 11 And Herod with his soldiers, after treating Him with contempt and mocking Him, dressed Him in a gorgeous robe and sent Him back to Pilate.
23 : 12 Now Herod and Pilate became friends with one another that very day; for before they had been enemies with each other.
23 : 13 Pilate summoned the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
23 : 14 and said to them, "You brought this man to me as one who incites the people to rebellion, and behold, having examined Him before you, I have found no guilt in this man regarding the charges which you make against Him.
23 : 15 No, nor has Herod, for he sent Him back to us; and behold, nothing deserving death has been done by Him.
23 : 16 Therefore I will punish Him and release Him.
23 : 17 [Now he was obliged to release to them at the feast one prisoner.]
23 : 18 But they cried out all together, saying, "Away with this man, and release for us Barabbas!"
23 : 19 (He was one who had been thrown into prison for an insurrection made in the city, and for murder.)
23 : 20 Pilate, wanting to release Jesus, addressed them again,
23 : 21 but they kept on calling out, saying, "Crucify, crucify Him!"
23 : 22 And he said to them the third time, "Why, what evil has this man done? I have found in Him no guilt demanding death; therefore I will punish Him and release Him."
23 : 23 But they were insistent, with loud voices asking that He be crucified. And their voices began to prevail.
23 : 24 And Pilate pronounced sentence that their demand be granted.
23 : 25 And he released the man they were asking for who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, but he delivered Jesus to their will.
23 : 26 When they led Him away, they seized a man, Simon of Cyrene, coming in from the country, and placed on him the cross to carry behind Jesus.
23 : 27 And following Him was a large crowd of the people, and of women who were mourning and lamenting Him.
23 : 28 But Jesus turning to them said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, stop weeping for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
23 : 29 For behold, the days are coming when they will say, `Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.`
23 : 30 Then they will begin TO SAY TO THE MOUNTAINS, `FALL ON US,` AND TO THE HILLS, `COVER US.`
23 : 31 For if they do these things when the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?
23 : 32 Two others also, who were criminals, were being led away to be put to death with Him.
23 : 33 When they came to the place called The Skull, there they crucified Him and the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left.
23 : 34 But Jesus was saying, "Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing " And they cast lots, dividing up His garments among themselves.
23 : 35 And the people stood by, looking on. And even the rulers were sneering at Him, saying, "He saved others; let Him save Himself if this is the Christ of God, His Chosen One."
23 : 36 The soldiers also mocked Him, coming up to Him, offering Him sour wine,
23 : 37 and saying, "If You are the King of the Jews, save Yourself!"
23 : 38 Now there was also an inscription above Him, "THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS."
23 : 39 One of the criminals who were hanged there was hurling abuse at Him, saying, "Are You not the Christ? Save Yourself and us!"
23 : 40 But the other answered, and rebuking him said, "Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation?
23 : 41 And we indeed are suffering justly, for we are receiving what we deserve for our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.
23 : 42 And he was saying, "Jesus, remember me when You come in Your kingdom!"
23 : 43 And He said to him, "Truly I say to you, today you shall be with Me in Paradise."
23 : 44 It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness fell over the whole land until the ninth hour,
23 : 45 because the sun was obscured; and the veil of the temple was torn in two.
23 : 46 And Jesus, crying out with a loud voice, said, "Father, INTO YOUR HANDS I COMMIT MY SPIRIT." Having said this, He breathed His last.
23 : 47 Now when the centurion saw what had happened, he began praising God, saying, "Certainly this man was innocent."
23 : 48 And all the crowds who came together for this spectacle, when they observed what had happened, began to return, beating their breasts.
23 : 49 And all His acquaintances and the women who accompanied Him from Galilee were standing at a distance, seeing these things.
23 : 50 And a man named Joseph, who was a member of the Council, a good and righteous man
23 : 51 (he had not consented to their plan and action), a man from Arimathea, a city of the Jews, who was waiting for the kingdom of God;
23 : 52 this man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.
23 : 53 And he took it down and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid Him in a tomb cut into the rock, where no one had ever lain.
23 : 54 It was the preparation day, and the Sabbath was about to begin.
23 : 55 Now the women who had come with Him out of Galilee followed, and saw the tomb and how His body was laid.
23 : 56 Then they returned and prepared spices and perfumes And on the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
