Luke:23:1 @
And the whole company of them rose up ,
and brought him before Pilate .
asv @
Luke:23:2 @
And they began to accuse him ,
saying ,
We found this man perverting our nation ,
and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar ,
and saying that he himself is Christ a king .
asv @
Luke:23:3 @
And Pilate asked him ,
saying ,
Art thou the King of the Jews ?
And he answered him and said ,
Thou sayest .
asv @
Luke:23:4 @
And Pilate said unto the chief priests and the multitudes ,
I find no fault in this man .
asv @
Luke:23:5 @
But they were the more urgent ,
saying ,
He stirreth up the people ,
teaching throughout all Judaea ,
and beginning from Galilee even unto this place .
asv @
Luke:23:6 @
But when Pilate heard it ,
he asked whether the man were a Galilaean .
asv @
Luke:23:7 @
And when he knew that he was of Herod '
s jurisdiction ,
he sent him unto Herod ,
who himself also was at Jerusalem in these days .
asv @
Luke:23:8 @
Now when Herod saw Jesus ,
he was exceeding glad :
for he was of a long time desirous to see him ,
because he had heard concerning him ;
and he hoped to see some miracle done by him .
asv @
Luke:23:9 @
And he questioned him in many words ;
but he answered him nothing .
asv @
Luke:23:10 @
And the chief priests and the scribes stood ,
vehemently accusing him .
asv @
Luke:23:11 @
And Herod with his soldiers set him at nought ,
and mocked him ,
and arraying him in gorgeous apparel sent him back to Pilate .
asv @
Luke:23:12 @
And Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day :
for before they were at enmity between themselves .
asv @
Luke:23:13 @
And Pilate called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people ,
asv @
Luke:23:14 @
and said unto them ,
Ye brought unto me this man ,
as one that perverteth the people :
and behold ,
I having examined him before you ,
found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him :
asv @
Luke:23:15 @
no ,
nor yet Herod :
for he sent him back unto us ;
and behold ,
nothing worthy of death hath been done by him .
asv @
Luke:23:16 @
I will therefore chastise him ,
and release him .
asv @
Luke:23:17 @[
Now he must needs release unto them at the feast one prisoner .]
asv @
Luke:23:18 @
But they cried out all together ,
saying ,
Away with this man ,
and release unto us Barabbas : --
asv @
Luke:23:19 @
one who for a certain insurrection made in the city ,
and for murder ,
was cast into prison .
asv @
Luke:23:20 @
And Pilate spake unto them again ,
desiring to release Jesus ;
asv @
Luke:23:21 @
but they shouted ,
saying ,
Crucify ,
crucify him .
asv @
Luke:23:22 @
And he said unto them the third time ,
Why ,
what evil hath this man done ?
I have found no cause of death in him :
I will therefore chastise him and release him .
asv @
Luke:23:23 @
But they were urgent with loud voices ,
asking that he might be crucified .
And their voices prevailed .
asv @
Luke:23:24 @
And Pilate gave sentence that what they asked for should be done .
asv @
Luke:23:25 @
And he released him that for insurrection and murder had been cast into prison ,
whom they asked for ;
but Jesus he delivered up to their will .
asv @
Luke:23:26 @
And when they led him away ,
they laid hold upon one Simon of Cyrene ,
coming from the country ,
and laid on him the cross ,
to bear it after Jesus .
asv @
Luke:23:27 @
And there followed him a great multitude of the people ,
and of women who bewailed and lamented him .
asv @
Luke:23:28 @
But Jesus turning unto them said ,
Daughters of Jerusalem ,
weep not for me ,
but weep for yourselves ,
and for your children .
asv @
Luke:23:29 @
For behold ,
the days are coming ,
in which they shall say ,
Blessed are the barren ,
and the wombs that never bare ,
and the breasts that never gave suck .
asv @
Luke:23:30 @
Then shall they begin to say to the mountains ,
Fall on us ;
and to the hills ,
Cover us .
asv @
Luke:23:31 @
For if they do these things in the green tree ,
what shall be done in the dry ?
asv @
Luke:23:32 @
And there were also two others ,
malefactors ,
led with him to be put to death .
asv @
Luke:23:33 @
And when they came unto the place which is called The skull ,
there they crucified him ,
and the malefactors ,
one on the right hand and the other on the left .
asv @
Luke:23:34 @
And Jesus said ,
Father ,
forgive them ;
for they know not what they do .
And parting his garments among them ,
they cast lots .
asv @
Luke:23:35 @
And the people stood beholding .
And the rulers also scoffed at him ,
saying ,
He saved others ;
let him save himself ,
if this is the Christ of God ,
his chosen .
asv @
Luke:23:36 @
And the soldiers also mocked him ,
coming to him ,
offering him vinegar ,
asv @
Luke:23:37 @
and saying ,
If thou art the King of the Jews ,
save thyself .
asv @
Luke:23:38 @
And there was also a superscription over him ,
THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS .
asv @
Luke:23:39 @
And one of the malefactors that were hanged railed on him ,
saying ,
Art not thou the Christ ?
save thyself and us .
asv @
Luke:23:40 @
But the other answered ,
and rebuking him said ,
Dost thou not even fear God ,
seeing thou art in the same condemnation ?
asv @
Luke:23:41 @
And we indeed justly ;
for we receive the due reward of our deeds :
but this man hath done nothing amiss .
asv @
Luke:23:42 @
And he said ,
Jesus ,
remember me when thou comest in thy kingdom .
asv @
Luke:23:43 @
And he said unto him ,
Verily I say unto thee ,
To-day shalt thou be with me in Paradise .
asv @
Luke:23:44 @
And it was now about the sixth hour ,
and a darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour ,
asv @
Luke:23:45 @
the sun '
s light failing :
and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst .
asv @
Luke:23:46 @
And Jesus ,
crying with a loud voice ,
said ,
Father ,
into thy hands I commend my spirit :
and having said this ,
he gave up the ghost .
asv @
Luke:23:47 @
And when the centurion saw what was done ,
he glorified God ,
saying ,
Certainly this was a righteous man .
asv @
Luke:23:48 @
And all the multitudes that came together to this sight ,
when they beheld the things that were done ,
returned smiting their breasts .
asv @
Luke:23:49 @
And all his acquaintance ,
and the women that followed with him from Galilee ,
stood afar off ,
seeing these things .
asv @
Luke:23:50 @
And behold ,
a man named Joseph ,
who was a councillor ,
a good and righteous man
asv @
Luke:23:51 @(
he had not consented to their counsel and deed ), [
a man ]
of Arimathaea ,
a city of the Jews ,
who was looking for the kingdom of God :
asv @
Luke:23:52 @
this man went to Pilate ,
and asked for the body of Jesus .
asv @
Luke:23:53 @
And he took it down ,
and wrapped it in a linen cloth ,
and laid him in a tomb that was hewn in stone ,
where never man had yet lain .
asv @
Luke:23:54 @
And it was the day of the Preparation ,
and the sabbath drew on .
asv @
Luke:23:55 @
And the women ,
who had come with him out of Galilee ,
followed after ,
and beheld the tomb ,
and how his body was laid .
asv @
Luke:23:56 @
And they returned ,
and prepared spices and ointments .
And on the sabbath they rested according to the commandment .
