路加福音 23
Chinese Standard Bible (Traditional)
在彼拉多面前受審
23 於是他們全體民眾就起來,把耶穌帶到彼拉多面前, 2 開始控告耶穌,說:「我們發現這個人在敗壞我們的同胞,阻止納稅給凱撒,還自稱是基督、是王。」
3 彼拉多問耶穌:「你是猶太人的王嗎?」
耶穌回答說:「是你說的。」 4 彼拉多對祭司長們和眾人說:「我查不出這個人有什麼罪。」
5 他們卻更加堅持說:「他在猶太全地教導、煽動民眾,從加利利開始,一直到這裡。」
在希律前受審
6 彼拉多聽了[a],就問:「這人是不是加利利人?」 7 當他了解耶穌屬於希律管轄,就把他送到希律那裡。在那些日子裡,希律正好也在耶路撒冷。 8 希律見到耶穌就極其歡喜,因為他聽說過耶穌的事,早就想要見他,一直希望看他行個神蹟。 9 於是他問了耶穌許多話,但是耶穌什麼都不回答。 10 祭司長們和經文士們都站在那裡,極力控告他。 11 希律和他的軍兵就藐視耶穌,戲弄他,給他披上華麗的衣服,然後把他送回彼拉多那裡。 12 在這一天,希律和彼拉多竟互相成了朋友;原來他們兩個人一向是彼此有仇的。
耶穌或巴拉巴
13 彼拉多召集了祭司長們、首領們和民眾, 14 對他們說:「你們把這個人帶到我這裡來,說他是誤導民眾造反的。看,我已經當著你們的面審問了他,在他身上卻一點也查不出你們所控告的罪。 15 其實希律也查不出來,所以把他送回給我們。看,他沒有做過什麼該死的事。 16 因此,懲罰了以後,我要釋放他。」 17 每逢這節日,總督必須給他們釋放一個囚犯。[b]
18 他們卻一齊喊叫說:「除掉這個人!給我們釋放巴拉巴!」 19 這巴拉巴是因為在城裡發生的一個暴亂和殺人案,被投進監獄的。
20 彼拉多想要釋放耶穌,就再次向他們呼籲。 21 但他們卻一直喊叫說:「釘上十字架!把他釘上十字架!」
22 彼拉多第三次對他們說:「這個人到底做了什麼惡事呢?我查不出他有什麼該死的罪。所以,懲罰了以後,我要釋放他!」
23 他們催逼彼拉多,大聲要求把耶穌釘上十字架,他們[c]的喊聲終於[d]得勝了。 24 於是,彼拉多決定成全他們所求的, 25 釋放了他們所要的那個因暴亂和殺人被投進監獄的人,卻隨他們的意思,把耶穌交出去。
十字架之路
26 他們把耶穌帶走的時候,抓了一個從鄉下來的古利奈人西門,把十字架放在他身上,要他背著,跟在耶穌後面。 27 有一大群人跟著耶穌,其中有些婦女為他捶胸哀哭。 28 耶穌轉過身來,對她們說:「耶路撒冷的女兒啊,不要為我哭,而要為你們自己、為你們的兒女哭! 29 看,日子將要來到,那時人們會說:『不能生育、沒有懷過胎和沒有乳養過嬰兒的,是蒙福的!』 30 那時人們將開始對山嶺說:『倒在我們身上吧!』對丘陵說:『遮蓋我們吧!』[e] 31 他們在樹木青綠的時候尚且做這些事,那麼在它枯萎的時候,還會發生什麼呢?」
被釘在罪犯之間
32 另有兩個囚犯也和耶穌一起被帶去處死。 33 當他們來到一個地方,叫做「骷髏」,就在那裡把耶穌釘上十字架,又釘了那兩個囚犯,一個在右邊,一個在左邊。 34 那時,耶穌說:「父啊,赦免他們!因為他們不知道自己在做什麼。」[f]士兵們[g]抽籤分了他的衣服。
35 民眾站著觀看。首領們也譏笑,說:「他救了別人!如果這個人是神的基督,是蒙揀選的那一位,讓他救自己吧!」 36 士兵們也上前來戲弄他,給他獻上酸酒, 37 說:「你如果是猶太人的王,救救你自己吧!」
38 在耶穌的上方有一個牌子[h]:「這是猶太人的王。」
39 被懸掛的兩個囚犯中,有一個辱罵他說:「你不是基督嗎?救救你自己,也救救我們吧!」
40 另一個就應聲斥責他,說:「你既然同樣受懲罰,還不怕神嗎? 41 我們受刑[i]理所應當,因為我們所受的與我們所做的相稱。但這個人卻沒有做過什麼壞事。」 42 他接著說:「耶穌啊,[j][k]你進了你國度的時候,求你記念我。」
43 耶穌[l]對他說:「我確實地告訴你:今天你要與我一起在樂園裡了。」
耶穌之死
44 那時大約是中午十二點[m],黑暗籠罩了整個大地,一直到下午三點[n]。 45 太陽失去了光[o],同時,聖所裡的幔子裂成兩半。 46 耶穌大聲呼喚:「父啊,我把我的靈魂交託在你手中。」[p]說完這話,就斷了氣。
47 百夫長看見所發生的事,就不住地榮耀神,說:「這個人的確是義人。」 48 所有聚集見這場面的眾人,看到所發生的事,都捶著胸回去了。 49 所有熟悉耶穌的人,包括那些從加利利一直跟著他來的婦女,都站在遠處看這些事。
安葬
50 當時,有一個名叫約瑟的人,是猶太議會中的議員,為人公義良善。 51 這個人並沒有贊同他們的計劃和行為;他是猶太的亞利馬太城的人,一直期待著神的國。 52 他來到彼拉多面前,請求要耶穌的遺體。 53 他把遺體取下來,用細麻布裹好,安放在一座岩石鑿成的墓穴裡,那裡從來沒有安放過人。 54 那天是預備日,安息日快要到了[q]。 55 那些從加利利陪耶穌一起來的婦女跟在後面。她們看到了那墓穴,也看到了耶穌的遺體怎樣被安放, 56 就回去預備香料和香液。不過在安息日,她們還是按照誡命休息了。

Luke 23
Christian Standard Bible Anglicised
Jesus Faces Pilate
23 Then(A) their whole assembly rose up and brought him before Pilate. 2 They began to accuse him, saying, ‘We found this man misleading our nation, opposing payment of taxes(B) to Caesar, and saying that he himself is the Messiah, a king.’
3 So Pilate asked him,(C) ‘Are you the king of the Jews? ’(D)
He answered him, ‘You say so.’[a]
4 Pilate then told the chief priests and the crowds, ‘I find no grounds(E) for charging this man.’
5 But they kept insisting, ‘He stirs up the people,(F) teaching throughout all Judea, from Galilee(G) where he started even to here.’
Jesus Faces Herod Antipas
6 When Pilate(H) heard this,[b] he asked if the man was a Galilean. 7 Finding that he was under Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod,(I) who was also in Jerusalem during those days. 8 Herod was very glad to see Jesus; for a long time he had wanted to see him because he had heard about him and was hoping to see some miracle[c] performed by him. 9 So he kept asking him questions, but Jesus did not answer him.(J) 10 The chief priests and the scribes stood by, vehemently accusing him. 11 Then Herod, with his soldiers, treated him with contempt, mocked(K) him, dressed him in bright clothing,(L) and sent him back to Pilate. 12 That very day Herod and Pilate became friends.[d](M) Previously, they had been enemies.
Jesus or Barabbas
13 Pilate called together the chief priests, the leaders, and the people,(N) 14 and said to them, ‘You have brought me this man as one who misleads the people.(O) But in fact, after examining him in your presence, I have found no grounds(P) to charge this man with those things you accuse him of. 15 Neither has Herod, because he sent him back to us. Clearly, he has done nothing to deserve death. 16 Therefore, I will have him whipped[e](Q) and then release him.’[f]
18 Then(R) they all cried out together, ‘Take this man away!(S) Release Barabbas to us! ’ 19 (He had been thrown into prison for a rebellion that had taken place in the city, and for murder.)
20 Wanting to release Jesus,(T) Pilate addressed them again, 21 but they kept shouting, ‘Crucify! Crucify him! ’
22 A third time he said to them, ‘Why? What has this man done wrong?(U) I have found in him no grounds(V) for the death penalty. Therefore, I will have him whipped and then release him.’
23 But they kept up the pressure, demanding with loud voices that he be crucified, and their voices[g] prevailed. 24 So(W) Pilate decided to grant their demand(X) 25 and released the one they were asking for, who had been thrown into prison for rebellion and murder. But he handed Jesus over to their will.(Y)
The Way to the Cross
26 As(Z) they led him away, they seized Simon, a Cyrenian,(AA) who was coming in from the country, and laid the cross(AB) on him to carry behind Jesus. 27 A large crowd of people followed him, including women who were mourning and lamenting him.(AC) 28 But turning to them, Jesus said, ‘Daughters of Jerusalem,(AD) do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and your children. 29 Look, the days are coming(AE) when they will say, “Blessed are the women without children, the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never fed! ”(AF) 30 Then they will begin to say to the mountains, “Fall on us! ” and to the hills, “Cover us! ”[h](AG) 31 For if they do these things when the wood is green, what will happen when it is dry? ’(AH)
Crucified Between Two Criminals
32 Two others – criminals(AI) – were also led away to be executed with him. 33 When(AJ) they arrived at the place called The Skull, they crucified him there, along with the criminals, one on the right and one on the left. 34 Then Jesus said, “Father,(AK) forgive(AL) them, because they do not know what they are doing.”[i](AM) And they divided his clothes and cast lots.(AN)
35 The(AO) people stood watching, and even the leaders were scoffing:(AP) ‘He saved others; let him save himself if this is God’s Messiah, the Chosen One! ’(AQ) 36 The soldiers also mocked him. They came offering him sour wine(AR) 37 and said, ‘If you are the king of the Jews,(AS) save yourself! ’
38 An inscription was above him:[j] This Is the King of the Jews.
39 Then(AT) one of the criminals hanging there began to yell insults at[k] him: ‘Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself and us! ’
40 But the other answered, rebuking him: ‘Don’t you even fear God,(AU) since you are undergoing the same punishment? 41 We are punished justly, because we’re getting back what we deserve for the things we did, but this man has done nothing wrong.’(AV) 42 Then he said, ‘Jesus, remember me[l](AW) when you come into your kingdom.’(AX)
43 And he said to him, ‘Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.’(AY)
The Death of Jesus
44 It(AZ) was now about noon,[m] and darkness came over the whole land[n] until three,[o] 45 because the sun’s light failed.[p] The curtain(BA) of the sanctuary was split down the middle. 46 And Jesus called out with a loud voice, ‘Father, into your hands I entrust my spirit.’(BB)[q] Saying this, he breathed his last.
47 When the centurion saw what happened, he began to glorify(BC) God, saying, ‘This man really was righteous! ’[r] 48 All the crowds that had gathered for this spectacle, when they saw what had taken place, went home, striking their chests.(BD) 49 But(BE) all who knew him, including the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood at a distance,(BF) watching these things.
The Burial of Jesus
50 There(BG) was a good and righteous man named Joseph, a member of the Sanhedrin, 51 who had not agreed with their plan(BH) and action. He was from Arimathea, a Judean town, and was looking forward to the kingdom of God.(BI) 52 He approached Pilate and asked for Jesus’s body. 53 Taking it down, he wrapped it in fine linen and placed it in a tomb cut into the rock, where no one had ever been placed.[s](BJ) 54 It was the preparation day, and the Sabbath was about to begin.[t] 55 The women(BK) who had come with him from Galilee followed along and observed the tomb and how his body was placed. 56 Then they returned and prepared spices and perfumes.(BL) And they rested on the Sabbath according to the commandment.(BM)
