Luke 23:28-56
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, ‘1BlessedG3107 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 2sayG3004 to the mountainsG3735, ‘FallG4098 on us,’ and to the hillsG1015, ‘CoverG2572 us.’ 31For ifG1487 they doG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778 3whenG1722 the treeG3586 is greenG5200, whatG5101 will happenG1096 4whenG1722 it is dryG3584?”
325NowG1161 twoG1417 othersG2087, who were criminalsG2557, were alsoG2532 being ledG71 awayG71 to be putG337 toG337 deathG337 with Him.
336And whenG3753 they cameG2064 to the placeG5117 calledG2564 7The SkullG2898, thereG1563 they crucifiedG4717 Him and the criminalsG2557, oneG3739 on the rightG1188 and the otherG3739 on the leftG710. 34[8But JesusG2424 was sayingG3004, “9FatherG3962, forgiveG863 them; for they do not knowG3609 whatG5101 they are doingG4160.”] 10And they castG906 lotsG2819, dividingG1266 His garmentsG2440 amongG1266 themselves. 35And the peopleG2992 stoodG2476 by, watchingG2334. And evenG2532 the 11rulersG758 were sneeringG1592 at Him, sayingG3004, “He savedG4982 othersG243; 12let Him saveG4982 HimselfG1438 ifG1487 thisG3778 is the 13ChristG5547 of GodG2316, His ChosenG1588 OneG1588.” 36The soldiersG4757 alsoG2532 ridiculedG1702 Him, comingG4334 upG4334 to Him, 14offeringG4374 Him sourG3690 wineG3690, 37and sayingG3004, “15IfG1487 You are the KingG935 of the JewsG2453, saveG4982 YourselfG4572!” 38NowG1161 there was alsoG2532 an inscriptionG1923 aboveG1909 Him, “16THISG3778 IS THE KINGG935 OF THE JEWSG2453.”
3917OneG1520 of the criminalsG2557 who were hangedG2910 there was 18hurlingG987 abuseG987 at Him, sayingG3004, “Are You not the 19ChristG5547? 20SaveG4982 YourselfG4572 and us!” 40But the otherG2087 respondedG611, and rebukingG2008 him, saidG5346, “Do you not evenG3761 fearG5399 GodG2316, sinceG3754 you are underG1722 the sameG846 sentenceG2917 ofG2917 condemnationG2917? 41And we indeedG3303 are suffering justlyG1346, for we are receivingG618 21whatG3739 we deserveG514 for our crimesG3739G4238; but thisG3778 ManG3778 has doneG4238 nothingG3762 wrongG824.” 42And he was sayingG3004, “JesusG2424, rememberG3403 me whenG3752 You comeG2064 into Your kingdomG932!” 43And He saidG3004 to him, “TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, todayG4594 you will be with Me in 22ParadiseG3857.”
4423It was nowG2235 aboutG5616 2425the sixthG1623 hourG5610, and darknessG4655 cameG1096 overG1909 the entireG3650 landG1093 untilG2193 26the ninthG1729 hourG5610, 4527because the sunG2246 stoppedG1587 shiningG1587; and 28the veilG2665 of the templeG3485 was tornG4977 29in twoG3319. 46And JesusG2424, 30cryingG5455 outG5455 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, saidG3004, “FatherG3962, 31into Your handsG5495 I entrustG3908 My spiritG4151.” And having saidG3004 thisG3778, He 32diedG1606. 4733NowG1161 when the centurionG1543 sawG3708 what had happenedG1096, he began 34praisingG1392 GodG2316, sayingG3004, “ThisG3778 ManG444 was in factG3689 35innocentG1342.” 48And allG3956 the crowdsG3793 who cameG4836 togetherG4836 for thisG3778 spectacleG2335, after watchingG2334 what had happenedG1096, began to returnG5290 home, 3637beatingG5180 their chestsG4738. 4938And allG3956 His acquaintancesG1110 and 39the womenG1135 who accompaniedG4870 Him from GalileeG1056 were standingG2476 at a distanceG3113, seeingG3708 theseG3778 thingsG3778.
5040And a manG435 namedG3686 JosephG2501, who was a 41memberG1010 ofG1010 theG1010 CouncilG1010, a goodG18 and righteousG1342 manG435 51(he had not consentedG4784 to their planG1012 and actionG4234), a man from ArimatheaG707, a cityG4172 of the JewsG2453, whoG3739 was 42waitingG4327 for the kingdomG932 of GodG2316-- 52thisG3778 manG3778 wentG4334 to PilateG4091 and askedG154 for the bodyG4983 of JesusG2424. 53And he tookG2507 it downG2507 and wrappedG1794 it in a linenG4616 clothG4616, and laidG5087 Him in a tombG3418 cutG2991 intoG2991 theG2991 rockG2991, whereG3757 noG3756 oneG3762 had everG3768 lainG2749. 54It was a 4344preparationG3904 dayG2250, and a SabbathG4521 was about to 45beginG2020. 55NowG1161 46the womenG1135 whoG3748 had comeG4905 with Him from GalileeG1056 followedG2628, and they sawG2300 the tombG3419 and howG5613 His bodyG4983 was laidG5087. 56And then they returnedG5290 and 47preparedG2090 spicesG759 and perfumesG3464.
And 48on the SabbathG4521 they restedG2270 accordingG2596 to the commandmentG1785.
