LU-23:1 And the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto


Pilate.

LU-23:2 And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this
[fellow]

perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar,
saying that he

himself is Christ a King.

LU-23:3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the
Jews? And he

answered him and said, Thou sayest [it].

LU-23:4 Then said Pilate to the chief priests and [to] the
people, I find no

fault in this man.

LU-23:5 And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirreth up
the people,

teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this
place.

LU-23:6 When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man
were a

Galilaean.

LU-23:7 And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod's
jurisdiction, he

sent him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem at that
time.

LU-23:8 And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he
was desirous

to see him of a long [season], because he had heard many things
of him; and he

hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.

LU-23:9 Then he questioned with him in many words; but he
answered him

nothing.

LU-23:10 And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently
accused him.

LU-23:11 And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and
mocked [him],

and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.

LU-23:12 And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends
together: for

before they were at enmity between themselves.

LU-23:13 And Pilate, when he had called together the chief
priests and the

rulers and the people,

LU-23:14 Said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as
one that

perverteth the people: and, behold, I, having examined [him]
before you, have

found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye
accuse him:

LU-23:15 No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo,
nothing worthy of

death is done unto him.

LU-23:16 I will therefore chastise him, and release [him].

LU-23:17 (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the
feast.)

LU-23:18 And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this
[man], and

release unto us Barabbas:

LU-23:19 (Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for
murder, was

cast into prison.)

LU-23:20 Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake
again to them.

LU-23:21 But they cried, saying, Crucify [him], crucify him.

LU-23:22 And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil
hath he done? I

have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise
him, and let

[him] go.

LU-23:23 And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that
he might be

crucified. And the voices of them and of the chief priests
prevailed.

LU-23:24 And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they
required.

LU-23:25 And he released unto them him that for sedition and
murder was cast

into prison, whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus to
their will.

LU-23:26 And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one
Simon, a Cyrenian,

coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that
he might bear

[it] after Jesus.

LU-23:27 And there followed him a great company of people, and
of women, which

also bewailed and lamented him.

LU-23:28 But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of
Jerusalem, weep not

for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.

LU-23:29 For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they
shall say,

Blessed [are] the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the
paps which

never gave suck.

LU-23:30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on
us; and to the

hills, Cover us.

LU-23:31 For if they do these things in a green tree, what
shall be done in

the dry?

LU-23:32 And there were also two other, malefactors, led with
him to be put to

death.

LU-23:33 And when they were come to the place, which is called
Calvary, there

they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand,
and the other

on the left.

LU-23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know
not what they

do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

LU-23:35 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also
with them derided

[him], saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be
Christ, the

chosen of God.

LU-23:36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and
offering him

vinegar,

LU-23:37 And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save
thyself.

LU-23:38 And a superscription also was written over him in
letters of Greek,

and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

LU-23:39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on
him, saying,

If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.

LU-23:40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not
thou fear God,

seeing thou art in the same condemnation?

LU-23:41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of
our deeds: but

this man hath done nothing amiss.

LU-23:42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou
comest into thy

kingdom.

LU-23:43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To
day shalt thou be

with me in paradise.

LU-23:44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a
darkness over all

the earth until the ninth hour.

LU-23:45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple
was rent in the

midst.

LU-23:46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said,
Father, into thy

hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the
ghost.

LU-23:47 Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified
God, saying,

Certainly this was a righteous man.

LU-23:48 And all the people that came together to that sight,
beholding the

things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.

LU-23:49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed
him from

Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.

LU-23:50 And, behold, [there was] a man named Joseph, a
counsellor; [and he

was] a good man, and a just:

LU-23:51 (The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of
them;) [he

was] of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited
for the kingdom

of God.

LU-23:52 This [man] went unto Pilate, and begged the body of
Jesus.

LU-23:53 And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid
it in a

sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was
laid.

LU-23:54 And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew
on.

LU-23:55 And the women also, which came with him from Galilee,
followed after,

and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid.

LU-23:56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments;
and rested the

sabbath day according to the commandment.
