Luke 23:33-43

331And when they came to the place called 2The Skull, there they crucified Him and the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left. 34[3But Jesus was saying, “4Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing.”] 5And they cast lots, dividing His garments among themselves. 35And the people stood by, watching. And even the 6rulers were sneering at Him, saying, “He saved others; 7let Him save Himself if this is the 8Christ of God, His Chosen One.” 36The soldiers also ridiculed Him, coming up to Him, 9offering Him sour wine, 37and saying, “10If You are the King of the Jews, save Yourself!” 38Now there was also an inscription above Him, “11THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.”

3912One of the criminals who were hanged there was 13hurling abuse at Him, saying, “Are You not the 14Christ? 15Save Yourself and us!” 40But the other responded, and rebuking him, said, “Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? 41And we indeed are suffering justly, for we are receiving 16what we deserve for our crimes; but this Man has done nothing wrong.” 42And he was saying, “Jesus, remember me when You come into Your kingdom!” 43And He said to him, “Truly I say to you, today you will be with Me in 17Paradise.”
