rkjnt - Luke:23:26-43

rkjnt@Luke:23:26 @ And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming in from the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might carry it after Jesus.

rkjnt@Luke:23:27 @ And there followed him a great company of people, and of women who bewailed and lamented him.

rkjnt@Luke:23:28 @ But Jesus, turning to them, said, Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.

rkjnt@Luke:23:29 @ For, behold, the days are coming when they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bore, and the breasts which never nursed.

rkjnt@Luke:23:30 @ Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall upon us; and to the hills, Cover us.

rkjnt@Luke:23:31 @ For if they do these things when the wood is green, what shall happen when it is dry?

rkjnt@Luke:23:32 @ And there were also two others, criminals, who were led away with him to be put to death.

rkjnt@Luke:23:33 @ And when they had come to the place, which is called The Skull, there they crucified him, and the criminals, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.

rkjnt@Luke:23:34 @ Then Jesus said, Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they do. And they divided his clothing by casting lots.

rkjnt@Luke:23:35 @ The people stood watching. And the rulers derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he is the Christ, the chosen of God.

rkjnt@Luke:23:36 @ And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him wine vinegar,

rkjnt@Luke:23:37 @ And saying, If you are the king of the Jews, save yourself.

rkjnt@Luke:23:38 @ Now there was also an inscription written over him, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

rkjnt@Luke:23:39 @ And one of the criminals who was hung there railed at him, saying, If you are the Christ, save yourself and us.

rkjnt@Luke:23:40 @ But the other rebuked him, saying, Do you not fear God, since you are under the same condemnation?

rkjnt@Luke:23:41 @ And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man has done nothing wrong.

rkjnt@Luke:23:42 @ And he said to Jesus, Lord, remember me when you come into your kingdom.

rkjnt@Luke:23:43 @ And Jesus said to him, Truly I say to you, Today you shall be with me in paradise.
