路加福音 23
耶稣在彼拉多面前受审
1 众人都起来,把耶稣解到 彼拉多面前,2 就告他说:「我们见这人诱惑国民,禁止纳税给凯撒,并说自己是基督,是王。」3 彼拉多问耶稣说:「你是 犹太人的王吗?」耶稣回答说:「你说的是。」4 彼拉多对祭司长和众人说:「我查不出这人有什么罪来。」
5 但他们越发极力地说:「他煽惑百姓,在 犹太遍地传道,从 加利利起,直到这里了。」
希律藐视耶稣
6 彼拉多一听见,就问:「这人是 加利利人吗?」7 既晓得耶稣属 希律所管,就把他送到 希律那里去。那时 希律正在 耶路撒冷。8 希律看见耶稣,就很欢喜;因为听见过他的事,久已想要见他,并且指望看他行一件神迹,9 于是问他许多的话,耶稣却一言不答。10 祭司长和文士都站着,极力地告他。11 希律和他的兵丁就藐视耶稣,戏弄他,给他穿上华丽衣服,把他送回 彼拉多那里去。
12 从前 希律和 彼拉多彼此有仇,在那一天就成了朋友。
耶稣被判死刑
13 彼拉多传齐了祭司长和官府并百姓,14 就对他们说:「你们解这人到我这里,说他是诱惑百姓的。看哪,我也曾将你们告他的事,在你们面前审问他,并没有查出他什么罪来;15 就是 希律也是如此,所以把他送回来。可见他没有做什么该死的事。16 故此,我要责打他,把他释放了。」t*18 众人却一齐喊着说:「除掉这个人!释放 巴拉巴给我们!」19 这 巴拉巴是因在城里作乱杀人,下在监里的。20 彼拉多愿意释放耶稣,就又劝解他们。21 无奈他们喊着说:「钉他十字架!钉他十字架!」22 彼拉多第三次对他们说:「为什么呢?这人做了什么恶事呢?我并没有查出他什么该死的罪来。所以,我要责打他,把他释放了。」23 他们大声催逼 彼拉多,求他把耶稣钉在十字架上。他们的声音就得了胜。24 彼拉多这才照他们所求的定案,
25 把他们所求的那作乱杀人、下在监里的释放了,把耶稣交给他们,任凭他们的意思行。
耶稣被钉十字架
26 带耶稣去的时候,有一个 古利奈人 西门,从乡下来;他们就抓住他,把十字架搁在他身上,叫他背着跟随耶稣。27 有许多百姓跟随耶稣,内中有好些妇女;妇女们为他号咷痛哭。28 耶稣转身对她们说:「 耶路撒冷的女子,不要为我哭,当为自己和自己的儿女哭。
29 因为日子要到,人必说:『不生育的,和未曾怀胎的,未曾乳养婴孩的,有福了!』
30 那时,人要向大山说:
倒在我们身上!
向小山说:
遮盖我们!
31 「这些事既行在有汁水的树上,那枯干的树将来怎么样呢?」32 又有两个犯人,和耶稣一同带来处死。33 到了一个地方,名叫「髑髅地」,就在那里把耶稣钉在十字架上,又钉了两个犯人:一个在左边,一个在右边。34 当下耶稣说:「父啊!赦免他们;因为他们所做的,他们不晓得。」 兵丁就拈阄分他的衣服。35 百姓站在那里观看。官府也嗤笑他,说:「他救了别人;他若是基督,上帝所拣选的,可以救自己吧!」36 兵丁也戏弄他,上前拿醋送给他喝,37 说:「你若是 犹太人的王,可以救自己吧!」
38 在耶稣以上有一个牌子t*写着:「这是 犹太人的王。」
39 那同钉的两个犯人有一个讥笑他,说:「你不是基督吗?可以救自己和我们吧!」40 那一个就应声责备他,说:「你既是一样受刑的,还不怕上帝吗?41 我们是应该的,因我们所受的与我们所做的相称,但这个人没有做过一件不好的事。」42 就说:「耶稣啊,你得国降临的时候,求你记念我!」
43 耶稣对他说:「我实在告诉你,今日你要同我在乐园里了。」
耶稣的死
44 那时约有午正,遍地都黑暗了,直到申初,45 日头变黑了;殿里的幔子从当中裂为两半。46 耶稣大声喊着说:「父啊!我将我的灵魂交在你手里。」说了这话,气就断了。47 百夫长看见所成的事,就归荣耀与上帝,说:「这真是个义人!」48 聚集观看的众人见了这所成的事都捶着胸回去了。
49 还有一切与耶稣熟识的人,和从 加利利跟着他来的妇女们,都远远地站着看这些事。
耶稣的安葬
50 有一个人名叫 约瑟,是个议士,为人善良公义;51 众人所谋所为,他并没有附从。他本是 犹太、 亚利马太城里素常盼望上帝国的人。52 这人去见 彼拉多,求耶稣的身体,53 就取下来,用细麻布裹好,安放在石头凿成的坟墓里;那里头从来没有葬过人。54 那日是预备日,安息日也快到了。55 那些从 加利利和耶稣同来的妇女跟在后面,看见了坟墓和他的身体怎样安放。56 她们就回去,预备了香料香膏。她们在安息日,便遵着诫命安息了。
Luke 23
Jesus Brought Before Pilate
1 Thent the whole group of them rose up and brought Jesust before Pilate.s2 Theyt began to accuses him, saying, “We found this man subvertingts our nation, forbiddingt us to pay the tribute taxt to Caesart and claiming that he himself is Christ,ts a king.”3 Sot Pilate asked Jesus,t “Are you the kings of the Jews?” He replied, “You say so.”s4 Thent Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, “I find no basis for an accusationts against this man.”
5 But they persistedt in saying, “He incitess the people by teaching throughout all Judea. It started in Galilee and ended up here!”t
Jesus Brought Before Herod
6 Now when Pilate heard this, he asked whether the man was a Galilean.7 Whent he learned that he was from Herod’s jurisdiction,s he sent him over to Herod,s who also happened to be in Jerusalemss at that time.8 Whent Herod saw Jesus, he was very glad, for he had long desired to see him, because he had heard about him and was hoping to see him performt some miraculous sign.s9 Sot Herodt questioned him at considerable length; Jesust gave him no answer.10 The chief priests and the experts in the lawt were there, vehemently accusing him.s11 Even Herod with his soldiers treated him with contempt and mocked him. Then,t dressing him in elegant clothes,s Herodt sent him back to Pilate.
12 That very day Herod and Pilate became friends with each other,s for prior to this they had been enemies.t
Jesus Brought Before the Crowd
13 Thent Pilate called together the chief priests, thet rulers, and the people,14 and said to them, “You brought me this man as one who was misleadingt the people. When I examined him before you, It did not find this man guiltyt of anything you accused him of doing.15 Neither did Herod, for he sent him back to us. Look, he has done nothings deserving death.t
16 I will therefore have him floggedt and release him.”ss
18 But they all shouted out together,t “Take this mant away! Release Barabbas for us!”19 (Thist was a man who had been thrown into prison for an insurrections started in the city, and for murder.)s20 Pilate addressed them once again because he wanteds to release Jesus.21 But they kept on shouting,t “Crucify, crucifyts him!”22 A third time he said to them, “Why? What wrong has he done? I have found him guiltyt of no crime deserving death.s I will therefore flogt him and release him.”23 But they were insistent,t demanding with loud shouts that he be crucified. And their shouts prevailed.24 Sot Pilates decidedt that their demand should be granted.
25 He released the man they asked for, who had been thrown in prison for insurrection and murder. But he handed Jesus overt to their will.s
The Crucifixion
26 Ast they led him away, they seized Simon of Cyrene,s who was coming in from the country.t They placed the cross on his back and made him carry it behind Jesus.t27 A great number of the people followed him, among them womens who were mourningt and wailing for him.28 But Jesus turned to them and said, “Daughters of Jerusalem,ss do not weep for me, but weep for yourselvess and for your children.29 For this is certain:t The days are coming when they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren, the wombs that never bore children, and the breasts that never nursed!’ts30 Then they will begin to say to the mountains,s ‘Fall on us!’ and to the hills, ‘Cover us!’s
31 For if such things are donet when the wood is green, what will happen when it is dry?”s
32 Two other criminalsss were also led away to be executed with him.33 Sot when they came to the place that is called “The Skull,”s they crucifieds him there, along with the criminals, one on his right and one on his left.34 [But Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.”]s Thentthey threw dicetto divide his clothes.s35 The people also stood there watching, but the rulers ridiculedt him, saying, “He saved others. Let him saves himself ift he is the Christts of God, his chosen one!”36 The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and offering him sour wine,s37 and saying, “Ift you are the king of the Jews, save yourself!”
38 There was also an inscriptions over him, “This is the king of the Jews.”
39 One of the criminals who was hanging there railed at him, saying, “Aren’tss you the Christ?ts Save yourself and us!”40 But the other rebuked him, saying,t “Don’tt you fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation?t41 And we rightly so, for we are getting what we deserve for what we did, but this man has done nothings wrong.”42 Thent he said, “Jesus, remember mes when you come ins your kingdom.”
43 And Jesust said to him, “I tell you the truth,t todays you will be with me in paradise.”s
44 It was nowt about noon,t and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon,t45 because the sun’s light failed.ssss The temple curtaint was torn in two.
46 Then Jesus, calling out with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!”s And after he said this he breathed his last.
47 Now when the centurions saw what had happened, he praised God and said, “Certainly this man was innocent!”ts48 And all the crowds that had assembled for this spectacle, when they saw what had taken place, returned home beating their breasts.s
49 And all those who knew Jesust stood at a distance, and the women who had followed him from Galilee sawt these things.
Jesus’ Burial
50 Nowt there was a man named Joseph who was a member of the council,t a good and righteous man.51 (Het had not consentedss to their plan and action.) Het was from the Judean townt of Arimathea, and was looking forward tot the kingdom of God.s52 He went to Pilate and asked for the bodys of Jesus.53 Thent he took it down, wrapped it in a linen cloth,t and placed itt in a tomb cut out of the rock,t where no one had yet been buried.st54 It was the day of preparations and the Sabbath was beginning.t55 Thet women who had accompanied Jesust from Galilee followed, and they saw the tomb and how his body was laid in it.
56 Thent they returned and prepared aromatic spicest and perfumes.t
On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.s
