路加福音 23
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
耶稣被押交彼拉多(A)
23 众人都起来，把耶稣押到彼拉多那里， 2 控告他说：“我们查出这个人煽惑我们的同胞，阻止纳税给凯撒，并且自称是基督，是王。” 3 彼拉多问他：“你是犹太人的王吗？”耶稣回答：“你已经说了（“你已经说了”或译：“这是你说的”）。” 4 彼拉多对祭司长和众人说：“我在这人身上，查不出有甚么罪。” 5 但他们极力说：“他在犹太全地教导人，煽动群众，从加利利直到这里。”
希律王藐视耶稣
6 彼拉多听见了，就问耶稣是不是加利利人。 7 既然知道他是属于希律管辖的，就把他送回希律那里；那时希律正在耶路撒冷。 8 希律看见耶稣，非常欢喜，因为他曾经听过耶稣的事，早就想要见他，希望看他行个神迹。 9 于是他问了耶稣许多话，但耶稣甚么也不回答。 10 祭司长和经学家站着，猛烈地控告他。 11 希律和他的侍卫就藐视耶稣，戏弄他，给他穿上华丽的衣服，把他送回彼拉多那里。 12 希律和彼拉多从前原是彼此为仇，在那一天就成了朋友。
彼拉多判耶稣钉十字架(B)
13 彼拉多召集了祭司长、官长和民众， 14 对他们说：“你们把这人押到我这里来，说他煽惑群众，我已经在你们面前审讯过，在他身上一点也找不到你们控告他的罪状， 15 连希律也找不到，又把他送回我这里，可见他没有作过该死的事。 16 我要责打他，然后把他释放。”（有些抄本有第17节：“每逢节期，他必须照例给他们释放一个囚犯。”也有些抄本把这句放在第19节后） 18 众人齐声喊叫：“除掉这个人，给我们释放巴拉巴！” 19 这巴拉巴是因为在城里作乱杀人而入狱的。 20 彼拉多再向他们说明，愿意释放耶稣。 21 然而他们高声呼叫：“把他钉十字架，把他钉十字架！” 22 彼拉多第三次对他们说：“这人作过甚么恶事呢？我在他身上找不出甚么该死的罪。所以我要责打他，然后把他释放。” 23 但他们大声吵闹，要他把耶稣钉十字架，他们的声音就得了胜。 24 彼拉多就宣判，照他们的要求， 25 把他们所求那作乱杀人入狱的释放了，却把耶稣交出来，随他们的意思处理。
耶稣被钉十字架(C)
26 他们把耶稣带走的时候，抓住了一个从乡下来的古利奈人西门，把十字架放在他身上，叫他背着跟在耶稣后面。 27 一大群人跟随他，有些妇女为他捶胸痛哭。 28 耶稣转过身来对她们说：“耶路撒冷的女儿啊，不要为我哭，却要为你们自己和你们的儿女哭。 29 日子将到，人必说：‘不生育的和没有怀过胎的，也没有哺养过婴儿的有福了。’
30 那时人要对大山说：
‘倒在我们身上！’
对小山说：
‘遮盖我们！’
31 他们在青绿的树上，既然这样作；在枯干的树上，又会怎样呢？”
32 他们另外带来两个犯人，和耶稣一同处死， 33 到了那名叫“髑髅”的地方，就把耶稣钉在十字架上，也钉了那两个犯人，一左一右。 34 耶稣说：“父啊，赦免他们！因为他们不知道自己所作的是甚么。”士兵抽签，分了他的衣服。 35 群众站着观看，官长们嗤笑说：“他救了别人，如果他是基督，是 神所拣选的，让他救自己吧！” 36 士兵也上前戏弄他，拿酸酒给他喝， 37 说：“如果你是犹太人的王，救你自己吧！” 38 在耶稣的头以上有一个牌子写着：“这是犹太人的王。”
39 悬挂着的犯人中，有一个侮辱他说：“你不是基督吗？救你自己和我们吧！” 40 另一个就应声责备他说：“你是同样受刑的，还不惧怕 神吗？ 41 我们是罪有应得的。我们所受的与所作的相称，然而这个人并没有作过甚么不对的事。” 42 他又对耶稣说：“耶稣啊，你得国降临的时候，求你记念我。” 43 耶稣对他说：“我实在告诉你，今天你必定同我在乐园里了。”
耶稣死时的情形(D)
44 从大约正午直到下午三点钟，遍地都黑暗了。 45 太阳没有光，圣所的幔子从当中裂开。 46 耶稣大声呼叫：“父啊，我把我的灵魂交在你手里。”说了这话，气就断了。 47 百夫长看见所发生的事，就颂赞 神，说：“这真是个义人！” 48 聚集观看的群众，看见所发生的事，都捶着胸回去了。 49 与耶稣熟悉的人，和从加利利跟随他来的妇女，都远远地站着，看这些事。
耶稣葬在坟墓里(E)
50 有一个人名叫约瑟，是个议员，为人良善公义， 51 是犹太地亚利马太城的人，一向等候 神的国，并不附和众人的计谋和行为。 52 这人去见彼拉多，求领耶稣的身体。 53 他把身体取下来，用细麻布裹好，放在从石头凿出来的坟墓里，这坟墓是从来没有葬过人的。 54 那天是预备日，安息日就要开始， 55 那些从加利利和耶稣一起来的妇女，跟着来了。她们看见了坟墓，和他的身体怎样安葬， 56 就回去预备香料和香膏。
安息日，她们遵着诫命安息。
Luke 23
New International Version
Luke 23
New International Version
23 Then the whole assembly rose and led him off to Pilate.(A) 2 And they began to accuse him, saying, “We have found this man subverting our nation.(B) He opposes payment of taxes to Caesar(C) and claims to be Messiah, a king.”(D)
3 So Pilate asked Jesus, “Are you the king of the Jews?”
“You have said so,” Jesus replied.
4 Then Pilate announced to the chief priests and the crowd, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”(E)
5 But they insisted, “He stirs up the people all over Judea by his teaching. He started in Galilee(F) and has come all the way here.”
6 On hearing this, Pilate asked if the man was a Galilean.(G) 7 When he learned that Jesus was under Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod,(H) who was also in Jerusalem at that time.
8 When Herod saw Jesus, he was greatly pleased, because for a long time he had been wanting to see him.(I) From what he had heard about him, he hoped to see him perform a sign of some sort. 9 He plied him with many questions, but Jesus gave him no answer.(J) 10 The chief priests and the teachers of the law were standing there, vehemently accusing him. 11 Then Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked him. Dressing him in an elegant robe,(K) they sent him back to Pilate. 12 That day Herod and Pilate became friends(L)—before this they had been enemies.
13 Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers and the people, 14 and 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.(M) 15 Neither has Herod, for he sent him back to us; as you can see, he has done nothing to deserve death. 16 Therefore, I will punish him(N) and then release him.” [17] [a]
18 But the whole crowd shouted, “Away with this man! Release Barabbas to us!”(O) 19 (Barabbas had been thrown into prison for an insurrection in the city, and for murder.)
20 Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate appealed to them again. 21 But they kept shouting, “Crucify him! Crucify him!”
22 For 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.”(P)
23 But with loud shouts they insistently demanded that he be crucified, and their shouts prevailed. 24 So Pilate decided to grant their demand. 25 He 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(Q)
26 As the soldiers led him away, they seized Simon from Cyrene,(R) who was on his way in from the country, and put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus.(S) 27 A large number of people followed him, including women who mourned and wailed(T) for him. 28 Jesus turned and said to them, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me; weep for yourselves and for your children.(U) 29 For the time will come when you will say, ‘Blessed are the childless women, the wombs that never bore and the breasts that never nursed!’(V) 30 Then
31 For if people do these things when the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”(X)
32 Two other men, both criminals, were also led out with him to be executed.(Y) 33 When 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. 34 Jesus said, “Father,(Z) forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.”[c](AA) And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.(AB)
35 The people stood watching, and the rulers even sneered at him.(AC) They said, “He saved others; let him save himself if he is God’s Messiah, the Chosen One.”(AD)
36 The soldiers also came up and mocked him.(AE) They offered him wine vinegar(AF) 37 and said, “If you are the king of the Jews,(AG) save yourself.”
38 There was a written notice above him, which read: this is the king of the jews.(AH)
39 One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: “Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself and us!”(AI)
40 But the other criminal rebuked him. “Don’t you fear God,” he said, “since you are under the same sentence? 41 We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.”(AJ)
42 Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.[d]”(AK)
43 Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”(AL)
The Death of Jesus(AM)
44 It was now about noon, and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon,(AN) 45 for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple(AO) was torn in two.(AP) 46 Jesus called out with a loud voice,(AQ) “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.”[e](AR) When he had said this, he breathed his last.(AS)
47 The centurion, seeing what had happened, praised God(AT) and said, “Surely this was a righteous man.” 48 When all the people who had gathered to witness this sight saw what took place, they beat their breasts(AU) and went away. 49 But all those who knew him, including the women who had followed him from Galilee,(AV) stood at a distance,(AW) watching these things.
The Burial of Jesus(AX)
50 Now there was a man named Joseph, a member of the Council, a good and upright man, 51 who 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.(AY) 52 Going to Pilate, he asked for Jesus’ body. 53 Then 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. 54 It was Preparation Day,(AZ) and the Sabbath was about to begin.
55 The women who had come with Jesus from Galilee(BA) followed Joseph and saw the tomb and how his body was laid in it. 56 Then they went home and prepared spices and perfumes.(BB) But they rested on the Sabbath in obedience to the commandment.(BC)

King James Version
23 And the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate.
2 And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this fellow perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying that he himself is Christ a King.
3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest it.
4 Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people, I find no fault in this man.
5 And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place.
6 When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilaean.
7 And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem at that time.
8 And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he was desirous to see him of a long season, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.
9 Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.
10 And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.
11 And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked him, and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.
12 And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between themselves.
13 And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
14 Said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth the people: and, behold, I, having examined him before you, have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him:
15 No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing worthy of death is done unto him.
16 I will therefore chastise him, and release him.
17 (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)
18 And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas:
19 (Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison.)
20 Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake again to them.
21 But they cried, saying, Crucify him, crucify him.
22 And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath he done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him, and let him go.
23 And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified. And the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed.
24 And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.
25 And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was cast into prison, whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus to their will.
26 And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear it after Jesus.
27 And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him.
28 But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
29 For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck.
30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.
31 For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?
32 And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be put to death.
33 And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.
34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.
35 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God.
36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar,
37 And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.
38 And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, This Is The King Of The Jews.
39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.
40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?
41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.
42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.
43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.
44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.
45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.
46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.
47 Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.
48 And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.
49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.
50 And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counsellor; and he was a good man, and a just:
51 (The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the kingdom of God.
52 This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.
53 And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid.
54 And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on.
55 And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid.
56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment.

23 1 He is accuseth before Pilate. 7 He is sent to Herod. 11 He is mocked. 24 Pilate yieldeth him up to the Jews’ request. 27 The women bewail him. 33 He is crucified. 39 One of the thieves revileth him. 43 The other is saved by faith. 45 He dieth. 53 He is buried.
1 Then [a]the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate.
2 And they began to accuse him, saying, We have found this man [b]perverting the nation, (A)and forbidding to pay tribute to Caesar, saying, That he is Christ a King.
3 (B)And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him, and said, Thou sayest it.
4 Then said Pilate to the high Priests, and to the people, I find no fault in this man.
5 But they were the more fierce, saying, He moveth the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning at Galilee, even to this place.
6 [c]Now when Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilean.
7 And when he knew that he was of [d]Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, which was also at Jerusalem in those days.
8 And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad: for he was desirous to see him of a long season, because he had heard many things of him, and trusteth to have seen some sign done by him.
9 Then questioned he with him of many things: but he answered him nothing.
10 The high Priests also and Scribes stood forth and accused him vehemently.
11 And Herod with his [e]men of war, despised him, and mocked him, and arrayed him in white, and sent him again to Pilate.
12 [f]And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were enemies one to another.
13 ¶ [g]Then Pilate called together the high Priests, and the [h]rulers, and the people,
14 (C)And said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverted the people: and behold, I have examined him before you, and have found no fault in this man, of those things whereof ye accuse him:
15 No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him: and lo, nothing worthy of death is done of him.
16 [i]I will therefore chastise him, and let him loose.
17 (For of necessity he must have let one loose unto them at the feast.)
18 Then all the multitude cried at once, saying, Away with him, and deliver unto us Barabbas:
19 Which for a certain insurrection made in the city, and murder, was cast in prison.
20 Then Pilate spake again to them, willing to let Jesus loose.
21 But they cried, saying, Crucify, crucify him.
22 [j]And he said unto them the third time, But what evil hath he done? I find no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him, and let him loose.
23 But they were instant with loud voices, and required that he might be crucified: and the voices of them and of the high Priests prevailed.
24 So Pilate gave sentence, that it should be as they required.
25 And he let loose unto them him that for insurrection and murder was cast into prison, whom they desired, and delivered Jesus to do with him what they would.
26 ¶ (D)[k]And as they led him away, they caught one Simon of Cyrene, coming out of the field, and on him they laid the cross, to bear it after Jesus.
27 [l]And there followed him a great multitude of people, and of women, which women bewailed and lamented him.
28 But Jesus turned back unto them, and said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
29 For behold, the days will come, when men shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck.
30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, (E)Fall on us: and to the hills, Cover us.
31 (F)For if they do these things to a [m]green tree, what shall be done to the dry?
32 (G)And there were two others, which were evildoers, led with him to be slain.
33 [n]And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the evildoers: one at the right hand, and the other at the left.
34 [o]Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them: for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.
35 And the people stood, and beheld: and the rulers mocked him with them, saying, He saved others: let him save himself, if he be that Christ the [p]Chosen of God.
36 The soldiers also mocked him, and came and offered him vinegar,
37 And said, If thou be the King of the Jews, save thyself.
38 [q]And a superscription was also written over him, in Greek letters, and in Latin, and in Hebrew, THIS IS THAT KING OF THE JEWS.
39 ¶ [r]And [s]one of the evildoers, which were hanged, railed on him, saying, If thou be that Christ, save thyself and us.
40 But the other answered, and rebuked him, saying, Fearest thou not God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?
41 We are indeed righteously here: for we receive things worthy of that we have done: but this man hath done nothing [t]amiss.
42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me, when thou comest into thy kingdom.
43 Then Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, today shalt thou be with me in [u]Paradise.
44 ¶ [v]And it was about the sixth hour: and there was a darkness over all the land, until the ninth hour.
45 [w]And the Sun was darkened, and the veil of the Temple rent through the midst.
46 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and said, (H)Father, into thine hands I commend my spirit. And when he thus had said, he gave up the ghost.
47 ¶ [x]Now when the Centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Of a surety this man was just.
48 And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done: smote their breasts, and returned.
49 [y]And all his acquaintances stood afar off, and the women that followed him from Galilee, beholding these things.
50 ¶ (I)[z]And behold, there was a man named Joseph, which was a counselor, a good man and a just.
51 He did not consent to the counsel and deed of them, which was of Arimathea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the kingdom of God.
52 He went unto Pilate, and asked the body of Jesus,
53 And took it down, and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid it in a tomb hewn out of a rock, wherein was never man yet laid.
54 And that day was the preparation, and the Sabbath [aa]drew on.
55 [ab]And the women also that followed after, which came with him from Galilee, beheld the sepulcher, and how his body was laid.
56 And they returned and prepared odors, and ointments, and resteth the Sabbath day according to the commandment.
