Luke 23
23
1Then the whole assembly rose and led him off to Pilate. 2And they began to accuse him, saying, “We have found this man subverting our nation. He opposes payment of taxes to Caesar and claims to be Messiah, a king.”
3So Pilate asked Jesus, “Are you the king of the Jews?”
“You have said so,” Jesus replied.
4Then Pilate announced to the chief priests and the crowd, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”
5But they insisted, “He stirs up the people all over Judea by his teaching. He started in Galilee and has come all the way here.”
6On hearing this, Pilate asked if the man was a Galilean. 7When he learned that Jesus was under Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem at that time.
8When Herod saw Jesus, he was greatly pleased, because for a long time he had been wanting to see him. From what he had heard about him, he hoped to see him perform a sign of some sort. 9He plied him with many questions, but Jesus gave him no answer. 10The chief priests and the teachers of the law were standing there, vehemently accusing him. 11Then Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked him. Dressing him in an elegant robe, they sent him back to Pilate. 12That day Herod and Pilate became friends—before this they had been enemies.
13Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers and the people, 14and said to them, “You brought me this man as one who was inciting the people to rebellion. I have examined him in your presence and have found no basis for your charges against him. 15Neither has Herod, for he sent him back to us; as you can see, he has done nothing to deserve death. 16Therefore, I will punish him and then release him.” [17]#23:17 Some manuscripts include here words similar to Matt. 27:15 and Mark 15:6.
18But the whole crowd shouted, “Away with this man! Release Barabbas to us!” 19(Barabbas had been thrown into prison for an insurrection in the city, and for murder.)
20Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate appealed to them again. 21But they kept shouting, “Crucify him! Crucify him!”
22For the third time he spoke to them: “Why? What crime has this man committed? I have found in him no grounds for the death penalty. Therefore I will have him punished and then release him.”
23But with loud shouts they insistently demanded that he be crucified, and their shouts prevailed. 24So Pilate decided to grant their demand. 25He released the man who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, the one they asked for, and surrendered Jesus to their will.
The Crucifixion of Jesus
26As the soldiers led him away, they seized Simon from Cyrene, who was on his way in from the country, and put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus. 27A large number of people followed him, including women who mourned and wailed for him. 28Jesus turned and said to them, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me; weep for yourselves and for your children. 29For the time will come when you will say, ‘Blessed are the childless women, the wombs that never bore and the breasts that never nursed!’ 30Then
“ ‘they will say to the mountains, “Fall on us!”
and to the hills, “Cover us!” ’ # 23:30
Hosea 10:8
31 For if people do these things when the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”
32Two other men, both criminals, were also led out with him to be executed. 33When they came to the place called the Skull, they crucified him there, along with the criminals—one on his right, the other on his left. 34Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.”#23:34 Some early manuscripts do not have this sentence. And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.
35The people stood watching, and the rulers even sneered at him. They said, “He saved others; let him save himself if he is God’s Messiah, the Chosen One.”
36The soldiers also came up and mocked him. They offered him wine vinegar 37and said, “If you are the king of the Jews, save yourself.”
38There was a written notice above him, which read: this is the king of the jews.
39One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: “Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself and us!”
40But the other criminal rebuked him. “Don’t you fear God,” he said, “since you are under the same sentence? 41We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.”
42Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.#23:42 Some manuscripts come with your kingly power”
43Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”
The Death of Jesus
44It was now about noon, and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon, 45for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two. 46Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.”#23:46 Psalm 31:5 When he had said this, he breathed his last.
47The centurion, seeing what had happened, praised God and said, “Surely this was a righteous man.” 48When all the people who had gathered to witness this sight saw what took place, they beat their breasts and went away. 49But all those who knew him, including the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching these things.
The Burial of Jesus
50Now there was a man named Joseph, a member of the Council, a good and upright man, 51who had not consented to their decision and action. He came from the Judean town of Arimathea, and he himself was waiting for the kingdom of God. 52Going to Pilate, he asked for Jesus’ body. 53Then he took it down, wrapped it in linen cloth and placed it in a tomb cut in the rock, one in which no one had yet been laid. 54It was Preparation Day, and the Sabbath was about to begin.
55The women who had come with Jesus from Galilee followed Joseph and saw the tomb and how his body was laid in it. 56Then they went home and prepared spices and perfumes. But they rested on the Sabbath in obedience to the commandment.

路加福音 23
23
耶穌被押交彼拉多(太27:1~2、11~14;可15:1~5;約18:28~38)
1眾人都起來,把耶穌押到彼拉多那裡,2控告他說:“我們查出這個人煽惑我們的同胞,阻止納稅給凱撒,並且自稱是基督,是王。”3彼拉多問他:“你是猶太人的王嗎?”耶穌回答:“你已經說了#“你已經說了”或譯:“這是你說的”。”4彼拉多對祭司長和眾人說:“我在這人身上,查不出有甚麼罪。”5但他們極力說:“他在猶太全地教導人,煽動群眾,從加利利直到這裡。”
希律王藐視耶穌
6彼拉多聽見了,就問耶穌是不是加利利人。7既然知道他是屬於希律管轄的,就把他送回希律那裡;那時希律正在耶路撒冷。8希律看見耶穌,非常歡喜,因為他曾經聽過耶穌的事,早就想要見他,希望看他行個神蹟。9於是他問了耶穌許多話,但耶穌甚麼也不回答。10祭司長和經學家站著,猛烈地控告他。11希律和他的侍衛就藐視耶穌,戲弄他,給他穿上華麗的衣服,把他送回彼拉多那裡。12希律和彼拉多從前原是彼此為仇,在那一天就成了朋友。
彼拉多判耶穌釘十字架(太27:15~26;可15:6~15;約18:39~19:16)
13彼拉多召集了祭司長、官長和民眾,14對他們說:“你們把這人押到我這裡來,說他煽惑群眾,我已經在你們面前審訊過,在他身上一點也找不到你們控告他的罪狀,15連希律也找不到,又把他送回我這裡,可見他沒有作過該死的事。16我要責打他,然後把他釋放。”#有些抄本有第17節:“每逢節期,他必須照例給他們釋放一個囚犯。”也有些抄本把這句放在第19節後18眾人齊聲喊叫:“除掉這個人,給我們釋放巴拉巴!”19這巴拉巴是因為在城裡作亂殺人而入獄的。20彼拉多再向他們說明,願意釋放耶穌。21然而他們高聲呼叫:“把他釘十字架,把他釘十字架!”22彼拉多第三次對他們說:“這人作過甚麼惡事呢?我在他身上找不出甚麼該死的罪。所以我要責打他,然後把他釋放。”23但他們大聲吵鬧,要他把耶穌釘十字架,他們的聲音就得了勝。24彼拉多就宣判,照他們的要求,25把他們所求那作亂殺人入獄的釋放了,卻把耶穌交出來,隨他們的意思處理。
耶穌被釘十字架(太27:33~44;可15:21~32;約19:17~24)
26他們把耶穌帶走的時候,抓住了一個從鄉下來的古利奈人西門,把十字架放在他身上,叫他背著跟在耶穌後面。27一大群人跟隨他,有些婦女為他捶胸痛哭。28耶穌轉過身來對她們說:“耶路撒冷的女兒啊,不要為我哭,卻要為你們自己和你們的兒女哭。29日子將到,人必說:‘不生育的和沒有懷過胎的,也沒有哺養過嬰兒的有福了。’
30那時人要對大山說:
‘倒在我們身上!’
對小山說:
‘遮蓋我們!’
31他們在青綠的樹上,既然這樣作;在枯乾的樹上,又會怎樣呢?”
32他們另外帶來兩個犯人,和耶穌一同處死,33到了那名叫“髑髏”的地方,就把耶穌釘在十字架上,也釘了那兩個犯人,一左一右。34耶穌說:“父啊,赦免他們!因為他們不知道自己所作的是甚麼。”士兵抽籤,分了他的衣服。35群眾站著觀看,官長們嗤笑說:“他救了別人,如果他是基督,是 神所揀選的,讓他救自己吧!”36士兵也上前戲弄他,拿酸酒給他喝,37說:“如果你是猶太人的王,救你自己吧!”38在耶穌的頭以上有一個牌子寫著:“這是猶太人的王。”
39懸掛著的犯人中,有一個侮辱他說:“你不是基督嗎?救你自己和我們吧!”40另一個就應聲責備他說:“你是同樣受刑的,還不懼怕 神嗎?41我們是罪有應得的。我們所受的與所作的相稱,然而這個人並沒有作過甚麼不對的事。”42他又對耶穌說:“耶穌啊,你得國降臨的時候,求你記念我。”43耶穌對他說:“我實在告訴你,今天你必定同我在樂園裡了。”
耶穌死時的情形(太27:45~56;可15:33~41)
44從大約正午直到下午三點鐘,遍地都黑暗了。45太陽沒有光,聖所的幔子從當中裂開。46耶穌大聲呼叫:“父啊,我把我的靈魂交在你手裡。”說了這話,氣就斷了。47百夫長看見所發生的事,就頌讚 神,說:“這真是個義人!”48聚集觀看的群眾,看見所發生的事,都捶著胸回去了。49與耶穌熟悉的人,和從加利利跟隨他來的婦女,都遠遠地站著,看這些事。
耶穌葬在墳墓裡(太27:57~61;可15:42~47;約19:38~42)
50有一個人名叫約瑟,是個議員,為人良善公義,51是猶太地亞利馬太城的人,一向等候 神的國,並不附和眾人的計謀和行為。52這人去見彼拉多,求領耶穌的身體。53他把身體取下來,用細麻布裹好,放在從石頭鑿出來的墳墓裡,這墳墓是從來沒有葬過人的。54那天是預備日,安息日就要開始,55那些從加利利和耶穌一起來的婦女,跟著來了。她們看見了墳墓,和他的身體怎樣安葬,56就回去預備香料和香膏。
安息日,她們遵著誡命安息。
