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.
