Luke 23:20-31
20But PilateG4091, wantingG2309 to releaseG630 JesusG2424, addressedG4377 them againG3825, 21but they kept on cryingG2019 outG2019, sayingG3004, “CrucifyG4717, crucifyG4717 Him!” 22And he saidG3004 to them a thirdG5154 timeG5154, “WhyG1063, whatG5101 has thisG3778 ManG3778 doneG4160 wrongG2556? I have foundG2147 1in His case noG3762 groundsG159 for a sentence of deathG2288; thereforeG3767 I will 23punishG3811 Him and releaseG630 Him.” 23But they were insistentG1945, with loudG3173 voicesG5456, demandingG154 that He be crucifiedG4717. And their voicesG5456 began to prevailG2729. 24And so PilateG4091 decidedG1948 to have their demandG155 carriedG1096 outG1096. 25And he releasedG630 the manG3588 for whomG3739 they were askingG154, who had been thrownG906 into prisonG5438 for a revoltG4714 and murderG5408; but he handedG3860 JesusG2424 overG3860 to their willG2307.
264And whenG5613 they ledG520 Him awayG520, they seizedG1949 a manG5100, SimonG4613 ofG2956 5CyreneG2956, as he was comingG2064 in from the countryG68, and placedG2007 onG2007 him the crossG4716 to carryG5342 behindG3693 JesusG2424.
27NowG1161 followingG190 Him was a largeG4183 crowdG4128 of the peopleG2992, and of womenG1135 whoG3739 were 67mourningG2875 and grievingG2354 for Him. 28But JesusG2424 turnedG4762 to them and saidG3004, “DaughtersG2364 of JerusalemG2419, stopG3361 weepingG2799 for Me, but weepG2799 for yourselvesG1438 and for your childrenG5043. 29For beholdG2400, daysG2250 are comingG2064 whenG1722G3739 they will sayG3004, ‘8BlessedG3107 are thoseG3588 who cannotG4723 bearG4723, and the wombsG2836 that have not givenG1080 birthG1080, and the breastsG3149 that have not nursedG5142.’ 30ThenG5119 they will beginG757 to 9sayG3004 to the mountainsG3735, ‘FallG4098 on us,’ and to the hillsG1015, ‘CoverG2572 us.’ 31For ifG1487 they doG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778 10whenG1722 the treeG3586 is greenG5200, whatG5101 will happenG1096 11whenG1722 it is dryG3584?”
