23 En ese momento, toda la asamblea se levantó y lo llevaron ante Pilato.
2 Comenzaron a acusarlo, diciendo:
―Encontramos a este hombre alborotando a nuestra nación. Está en contra de que se paguen impuestos al emperador y asegura que él es el Cristo, el rey.
3 Pilato le preguntó a Jesús:
―¿Eres tú el rey de los judíos?
Él respondió:
―Tú mismo lo dices.
4 Entonces Pilato le dijo a los jefes de los sacerdotes y a la gente:
―No encuentro nada que haga culpable a este hombre.
5 Pero ellos seguían insistiendo:
―Con sus enseñanzas alborota al pueblo por toda Judea. Comenzó en Galilea y ya llegó hasta aquí.
6 Cuando Pilato oyó esto, preguntó si el hombre era de Galilea.
7 Al enterarse de que pertenecía a la jurisdicción de Herodes, se lo mandó a él, pues en aquellos días también Herodes estaba en Jerusalén.
8 Cuando Herodes vio a Jesús, se puso muy contento, porque ya hacía tiempo que quería verlo. Había oído hablar de él y esperaba verlo hacer algún milagro. 9 Le hizo muchas preguntas pero Jesús no le contestó nada. 10 También estaban allí los jefes de los sacerdotes y los maestros de la ley y lo acusaban con insistencia. 11 Entonces Herodes y sus soldados lo trataron con desprecio y, para burlarse de él, le pusieron un manto lujoso. Después lo mandaron de vuelta a Pilato. 12 Herodes y Pilato antes no se llevaban bien, pero desde ese mismo día se hicieron amigos.
13 Pilato reunió a los jefes de los sacerdotes, a los gobernantes y al pueblo, 14 y les dijo:
―Ustedes me trajeron a este hombre acusado de incitar al pueblo a la rebelión. Pero ya lo he interrogado delante de ustedes y no lo encuentro culpable de lo que ustedes lo acusan. 15 Herodes tampoco lo encontró culpable, y por eso nos lo devolvió. Este hombre no ha hecho nada que merezca la muerte. 16 Por lo tanto, ordenaré que lo azoten y después lo dejaré libre. 17 Ahora bien, durante la fiesta tenía la obligación de soltarles un preso. 18 Pero todos gritaban a una voz:
―¡Llévate a ese! ¡Deja libre a Barrabás!
19 Barrabás estaba preso por una rebelión ocurrida en la ciudad y por haber matado a alguien. 20 Pilato quería dejar libre a Jesús y por eso habló con el pueblo otra vez. 21 Pero la gente gritaba:
―¡Crucifícalo! ¡Crucifícalo!
22 Entonces él les dijo por tercera vez:
―Pero, ¿qué delito ha cometido este hombre? No lo encuentro culpable de nada que merezca la pena de muerte. Voy a ordenar que lo azoten y después lo dejaré libre.
23 Pero ellos siguieron insistiendo a gritos que lo crucificara, y por fin lo consiguieron. 24 Pilato les concedió lo que pedían. 25 Ordenó que dejaran libre al hombre que estaba preso por rebelde y asesino, y les entregó a Jesús para que hicieran con él lo que quisieran.
La crucifixión
26 Cuando se lo llevaban, obligaron a un hombre de Cirene, llamado Simón, a que fuera detrás de Jesús cargando la cruz. Este hombre volvía en ese momento del campo. 27 Mucha gente del pueblo y muchas mujeres lo seguían. Ellas lloraban por él y se golpeaban el pecho. 28 Jesús se volvió hacía ellas y les dijo:
―Hijas de Jerusalén, no lloren por mí. Lloren más bien por ustedes y por sus hijos. 29 Porque se acerca el día en que dirán: “¡Dichosas las mujeres estériles, que nunca dieron a luz ni tuvieron que amamantar hijos!”. 30 Entonces comenzarán a decir a las montañas: “¡Caigan sobre nosotros!”, y a las colinas: “¡Cúbrannos!”, 31 pues si cuando el árbol está verde hacen esto, ¿qué no harán cuando esté seco?
32 Llevaban también con él, para matarlos, a otros dos que eran criminales. 33 Cuando llegaron al lugar llamado la Calavera, lo crucificaron. También a los criminales, uno a la derecha de él y otro a su izquierda.
34 Jesús dijo:
―Padre, perdónalos porque no saben lo que hacen.
Mientras, echaban suertes para ver quién se quedaba con la ropa de Jesús. 35 La gente se quedó allí para mirar; y por su parte, los gobernantes se burlaban de él. Decían:
―Si es el Cristo de Dios, el Escogido, que se salve a sí mismo como salvó a otros.
36 Los soldados también se burlaban de él. Se acercaron para ofrecerle vinagre, 37 y le dijeron:
—Si eres el rey de los judíos, sálvate a ti mismo.
38 Sobre él había un letrero que decía: «este es el rey de los judíos».
39 Uno de los criminales que estaban allí colgados también empezó a insultarlo:
―¿Acaso, no eres tú el Cristo? ¡Sálvate a ti mismo y sálvanos a nosotros también!
40 Pero el otro criminal lo reprendió:
―¿Ni siquiera tienes temor de Dios aunque estés sufriendo el mismo castigo?
41 Nosotros merecemos este castigo y sufrimos a causa de nuestros delitos; pero este no ha hecho nada malo.
42 Luego le dijo:
―Jesús, acuérdate de mí cuando vengas en tu reino.
43 Jesús le contestó:
―Te aseguro que hoy estarás conmigo en el paraíso.
Muerte de Jesús
44 Desde el mediodía y hasta las tres de la tarde, toda la tierra quedó a oscuras, 45 pues el sol se ocultó. Y la cortina del templo se partió en dos. 46 Entonces Jesús gritó con fuerza:
―¡Padre, en tus manos encomiendo mi espíritu!
Y después de decir esto, murió.
47 El capitán romano, al ver lo que había sucedido, alabó a Dios y dijo:
―En verdad, este hombre era justo.
48 Los que estaban allí reunidos para presenciar ese espectáculo, al ver lo que pasaba, se fueron de allí golpeándose el pecho. 49 Pero todos los conocidos de Jesús y las mujeres que lo habían seguido desde Galilea, se quedaron mirando desde lejos.
Sepultura de Jesús
50 Había un hombre llamado José que era bueno y justo. Era miembro del Consejo, 51 pero no había estado de acuerdo con la decisión y la conducta de los demás. Procedía del pueblo de Arimatea, en la región de Judea, y esperaba el reino de Dios. 52 Este fue ante Pilato para pedirle el cuerpo de Jesús. 53 Después de bajarlo, lo envolvió en una sábana de lino y lo puso en un sepulcro cavado en una roca. Ese sepulcro nunca antes lo habían usado.
54 Era el día en que se preparaban para el descanso del sábado, que ya estaba a punto de comenzar. 55 Las mujeres que habían seguido a Jesús desde Galilea acompañaron a José hasta el sepulcro y vieron cómo colocaba el cuerpo. 56 Luego regresaron a su casa y prepararon especias aromáticas y perfumes. Después descansaron el sábado, como lo manda la ley.
Luke 23

Luke 23
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.

Pilate Questions Jesus(A)
23 Then the entire assembly stood up and took him to Pilate.
2 They began to accuse Yeshua by saying, “We found that he stirs up trouble among our people: He keeps them from paying taxes to the emperor, and he says that he is Christ, a king.”
3 Pilate asked him, “Are you the king of the Jews?”
“Yes, I am,” Yeshua answered.
4 Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowd, “I can’t find this man guilty of any crime.”
Pilate Sends Jesus to Herod
5 The priests and the crowd became more forceful. They said, “He stirs up the people throughout Judea with his teachings. He started in Galilee and has come here.”
6 When Pilate heard that, he asked if the man was from Galilee. 7 When Pilate found out that he was, he sent Yeshua to Herod. Herod ruled Galilee and was in Jerusalem at that time.
8 Herod was very pleased to see Yeshua. For a long time he had wanted to see him. He had heard about Yeshua and hoped to see him perform some kind of miracle. 9 Herod asked Yeshua many questions, but Yeshua wouldn’t answer him. 10 Meanwhile, the chief priests and the experts in Moses’ Teachings stood there and shouted their accusations against Yeshua.
11 Herod and his soldiers treated Yeshua with contempt and made fun of him. They put a colorful robe on him and sent him back to Pilate. 12 So Herod and Pilate became friends that day. They had been enemies before this.
13 Then Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people. 14 He told them, “You brought me this man as someone who turns the people against the government. I’ve questioned him in front of you and haven’t found this man guilty of the crimes of which you accuse him. 15 Neither could Herod. So he sent this man back to us. This man hasn’t done anything to deserve the death penalty. 16 So I’m going to have him whipped and set free.”[a]
The Crowd Rejects Jesus(B)
18 The whole crowd then shouted, “Take him away! Free Barabbas for us.” 19 (Barabbas had been thrown into prison for his involvement in a riot that had taken place in the city and for murder.)
20 But because Pilate wanted to free Yeshua, he spoke to the people again.
21 They began yelling, “Crucify him! Crucify him!”
22 A third time Pilate spoke to them. He asked, “Why? What has he done wrong? I haven’t found this man deserving of the death penalty. So I’m going to have him whipped and set free.”
23 But the crowd pressured Pilate. They shouted that Yeshua had to be crucified, and they finally won. 24 Pilate decided to give in to their demand. 25 He freed Barabbas, who had been put in prison for rioting and murdering, because that’s what they wanted. But he let them do what they wanted to Yeshua.
Jesus Is Led Away to Be Crucified
26 As the soldiers led Yeshua away, they grabbed a man named Simon, who was from the city of Cyrene. Simon was coming into Jerusalem. They laid the cross on him and made him carry it behind Yeshua.
27 A large crowd followed Yeshua. The women in the crowd cried and sang funeral songs for him. 28 Yeshua turned to them and said, “You women of Jerusalem, don’t cry for me! Rather, cry for yourselves and your children! 29 The time is coming when people will say, ‘Blessed are the women who couldn’t get pregnant, who couldn’t give birth, and who couldn’t nurse a child.’ 30 Then people will say to the mountains, ‘Fall on us!’ and to the hills, ‘Cover us!’ 31 If people do this to a green tree, what will happen to a dry one?”
32 Two others, who were criminals, were led away to be executed with him.
The Crucifixion(C)
33 When they came to the place called The Skull, they crucified him. The criminals were also crucified, one on his right and the other on his left.
34 Then Yeshua said, “Father, forgive them. They don’t know what they’re doing.”[b]
Meanwhile, the soldiers divided his clothes among themselves by throwing dice.
35 The people stood there watching. But the rulers were making sarcastic remarks. They said, “He saved others. If he’s the Messiah that God has chosen, let him save himself!” 36 The soldiers also made fun of him. They would go up to him, offer him some vinegar, 37 and say, “If you’re the king of the Jews, save yourself!”
38 A written notice was placed above him. It said, “This is the king of the Jews.”
Criminals Talk to Jesus
39 One of the criminals hanging there insulted Yeshua by saying, “So you’re really the Messiah, are you? Well, save yourself and us!”
40 But the other criminal scolded him: “Don’t you fear God at all? Can’t you see that you’re condemned in the same way that he is? 41 Our punishment is fair. We’re getting what we deserve. But this man hasn’t done anything wrong.”
42 Then he said, “Yeshua, remember me when you enter your kingdom.”
43 Yeshua said to him, “I can guarantee this truth: Today you will be with me in paradise.”
Jesus Dies on the Cross(D)
44 Around noon darkness came over the entire land and lasted until three in the afternoon. 45 The sun had stopped shining. The curtain in the temple was split in two.
46 Yeshua cried out in a loud voice, “Father, into your hands I entrust my spirit.” After he said this, he died.
47 When an army officer saw what had happened, he praised God and said, “Certainly, this man was innocent!” 48 Crowds had gathered to see the sight. But when all of them saw what had happened, they cried and returned to the city. 49 All his friends, including the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood at a distance and watched everything.
Jesus Is Placed in a Tomb(E)
50 There was a good man who had God’s approval. His name was Joseph. He was a member of the Jewish council, 51 but he had not agreed with what they had done. He was from the Jewish city of Arimathea, and he was waiting for the kingdom of God.
52 He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Yeshua. 53 After he took it down from the cross, he wrapped it in linen. Then he laid the body in a tomb cut in rock, a tomb in which no one had ever been buried. 54 It was Friday, and the day of worship was just beginning.
55 The women who had come with Yeshua from Galilee followed closely behind Joseph. They observed the tomb and how his body was laid in it. 56 Then they went back to the city and prepared spices and perfumes. But on the day of worship they rested according to the commandment.

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)
