Jesus before Pilate
23 Then the entire assembly of them set out and (A)brought Him before Pilate. 2 (B)And they began to bring charges against Him, saying, “We found this Man (C)misleading our nation and (D)forbidding us to pay taxes to Caesar, and saying that He Himself is [a]Christ, a King.” 3 Now Pilate asked Him, saying, “So You are the King of the Jews?” And He answered him and said, “(E)It is as you say.” 4 But Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, “(F)I find no grounds for charges in the case of this Man.” 5 But they kept on insisting, saying, “He is stirring up the people, teaching all over Judea, (G)starting from Galilee, as far as this place!”
6 Now when Pilate heard this, he asked whether the Man was a Galilean. 7 And when he learned that He belonged to Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent Him to (H)Herod, [b]since he also was in Jerusalem [c]at this time.
Jesus before Herod
8 Now Herod was overjoyed when he saw Jesus; for (I)he had wanted to see Him for a long time, because he had been hearing about Him and was hoping to see some [d]sign performed by Him. 9 And he questioned Him [e]at some length; but (J)He offered him no answer at all. 10 Now the chief priests and the scribes stood there, vehemently charging Him. 11 And Herod, together with his soldiers, treated Him with contempt and mocked Him, (K)dressing Him in a brightly shining robe, and sent Him back to Pilate. 12 And so (L)Herod and Pilate became friends with one another that very day; for previously, they had been enemies toward each other.
Pilate Seeks Jesus’ Release
13 Now Pilate summoned to himself the chief priests, the [f](M)rulers, and the people, 14 and he said to them, “You brought this Man to me on the ground that (N)He is inciting the people to revolt; and behold, after examining Him before you, I (O)have found no basis at all in the case of this Man for the charges which you are bringing against Him. 15 No, nor has (P)Herod, for he sent Him back to us; and behold, nothing deserving death has been done by Him. 16 Therefore I will [g](Q)punish Him and release Him.” 17 [[h]Now he was obligated to release to them at the feast one prisoner.]
18 But they cried out all together, saying, “(R)Away with this Man, and release to us Barabbas!” 19 (He was one who had been thrown into prison for a revolt that took place in the city, and for murder.) 20 But Pilate, wanting to release Jesus, addressed them again, 21 but they kept on crying out, saying, “Crucify, crucify Him!” 22 And he said to them a third time, “Why, what has this Man done wrong? I have found [i]in His case no grounds for a sentence of death; therefore I will [j](S)punish Him and release Him.” 23 But they were insistent, with loud voices, demanding that He be crucified. And their voices began to prevail. 24 And so Pilate decided to have their demand carried out. 25 And he released the man for whom they were asking, who had been thrown into prison for a revolt and murder; but he handed Jesus over to their will.
Simon Carries the Cross
26 (T)And when they led Him away, they seized a man, Simon of (U)Cyrene, as he was coming in from the country, and placed on him the cross to carry behind Jesus.
27 Now following Him was a large crowd of the people, and of women who were [k](V)mourning and grieving for Him. 28 But Jesus turned to them and said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, stop weeping for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children. 29 For behold, days are coming when they will say, ‘(W)Blessed are those who cannot bear, and the wombs that have not given birth, and the breasts that have not nursed.’ 30 Then they will begin to (X)say to the mountains, ‘Fall on us,’ and to the hills, ‘Cover us.’ 31 For if they do these things [l]when the tree is green, what will happen [m]when it is dry?”
32 (Y)Now two others, who were criminals, were also being led away to be put to death with Him.
The Crucifixion
33 (Z)And when they came to the place called [n]The Skull, there they crucified Him and the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left. 34 [[o]But Jesus was saying, “(AA)Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing.”] (AB)And they cast lots, dividing His garments among themselves. 35 And the people stood by, watching. And even the (AC)rulers were sneering at Him, saying, “He saved others; (AD)let Him save Himself if this is the [p]Christ of God, His Chosen One.” 36 The soldiers also ridiculed Him, coming up to Him, (AE)offering Him sour wine, 37 and saying, “(AF)If You are the King of the Jews, save Yourself!” 38 Now there was also an inscription above Him, “(AG)THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
39 (AH)One of the criminals who were hanged there was [q]hurling abuse at Him, saying, “Are You not the [r]Christ? (AI)Save Yourself and us!” 40 But the other responded, and rebuking him, said, “Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? 41 And we indeed are suffering justly, for we are receiving [s]what we deserve for our crimes; but this Man has done nothing wrong.” 42 And he was saying, “Jesus, remember me when You come into Your kingdom!” 43 And He said to him, “Truly I say to you, today you will be with Me in (AJ)Paradise.”
44 (AK)It was now about [t](AL)the sixth hour, and darkness came over the entire land until [u]the ninth hour, 45 [v]because the sun stopped shining; and (AM)the veil of the temple was torn [w]in two. 46 And Jesus, (AN)crying out with a loud voice, said, “Father, (AO)into Your hands I entrust My spirit.” And having said this, He [x]died. 47 (AP)Now when the centurion saw what had happened, he began (AQ)praising God, saying, “This Man was in fact [y]innocent.” 48 And all the crowds who came together for this spectacle, after watching what had happened, began to return home, [z](AR)beating their chests. 49 (AS)And all His acquaintances and (AT)the women who accompanied Him from Galilee were standing at a distance, seeing these things.
Jesus Is Buried
50 (AU)And a man named Joseph, who was a (AV)member of the Council, a good and righteous man 51 (he had not consented to their plan and action), a man from Arimathea, a city of the Jews, who was (AW)waiting for the kingdom of God— 52 this man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 53 And he took it down and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid Him in a tomb cut into the rock, where no one had ever lain. 54 It was a [aa](AX)preparation day, and a Sabbath was about to [ab]begin. 55 Now (AY)the women who had come with Him from Galilee followed, and they saw the tomb and how His body was laid. 56 And then they returned and (AZ)prepared spices and perfumes.
And (BA)on the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.

23 그들이 다 일어나 예수님을 빌라도 앞에 끌고 가서
재판과 선고
2 이렇게 고소하였다. “[a]이 사람은 우리 민족을 그릇된 길로 인도 하고 있습니다. 황제에게 세금을 바치지 못하게 하고 자기가 그리스도 왕이라고 주장합니다.”
3 그래서 빌라도가 예수님께 “네가 유대인의 왕이냐?” 하고 묻자 예수님은 “그렇다” 하고 대답하셨다.
4 빌라도는 대제사장들과 군중을 향하여 “나는 이 사람에게서 아무런 죄도 찾지 못하였소” 하였으나
5 그들은 억지를 부리며 “그는 갈릴리에서부터 이 곳에 이르기까지 온 유대에서 가르치며 백성을 선동하고 있습니다” 하고 외쳐댔다.
6 빌라도는 그 말을 듣고 “이 사람이 갈릴리 사람이오?” 하고 물어 본 뒤
7 예수님이 헤롯의 관할 지역에 속한 것을 알고 그에게 보냈는데 그때 마침 헤롯도 예루살렘에 와 있었다.
8 헤롯은 오래 전부터 예수님의 소문을 듣고 한번 만나 보고 싶기도 했고 또 그가 기적을 행하는 것을 보고 싶은 생각도 있었기 때문에 예수님을 보자 매우 기뻐하였다.
9 헤롯은 예수님께 여러 가지를 물어 보았으나 예수님은 아무 대답도 하지 않으셨다.
10 대제사장들과 율법학자들이 거기 서서 악착같이 예수님을 고소하자
11 헤롯은 군인들과 함께 예수님을 업신여기고 조롱한 후 화려한 옷을 입혀 빌라도에게 돌려보냈다.
12 헤롯과 빌라도가 전에는 원수처럼 지냈으나 바로 그 날 서로 다정한 친구가 되었다.
13 빌라도는 대제사장들과 지도자들과 백성을 소집하고
14 그들에게 이렇게 말하였다. “여러분은 이 사람이 백성을 선동한다고 나에게 끌고 왔소. 그래서 내가 여러분이 보는 앞에서 직접 조사해 보았으나 이 사람에게서 여러분이 고소한 죄를 찾지 못하였소.
15 헤롯도 이 사람에게서 죄를 찾지 못하고 우리에게 되돌려보냈는데 사실 이 사람은 죽을 짓을 한 일이 없소.
16 그러므로 매질하여 놓아 주겠소.”
17 [b](없음)
18 그러자 군중들은 일제히 큰 소리로 “그 사람은 죽이고 우리에게 바라바를 석방해 주시오!” 하고 외쳤다.
19 바라바는 성 안에서 폭동을 일으키고 살인한 죄로 갇혀 있는 죄수였다.
20 빌라도는 예수님을 놓아 주고 싶어서 군중들에게 다시 말했으나
21 그들은 계속 소리를 지르며 “십자가에 못박으시오! 십자가에 못박으시오!” 하고 외쳤다.
22 그러자 빌라도가 그들에게 세 번째 말하였다. “이유가 무엇이오? 이 사람이 무슨 죄를 지었소? 나는 이 사람에게서 죽일 만한 죄를 찾지 못했으므로 매질이나 해서 놓아 주겠소.”
23 그러나 그들이 큰 소리로 외쳐대며 예수님을 십자가에 못박아야 한다고 끈질기게 요구하자 마침내 그들의 소리가 이기고 말았다.
24 그래서 빌라도는 그들의 요구대로 할 것을 선언하였다.
25 그리고 그는 그들이 요구한 사람, 곧 폭동과 살인죄로 감옥에 갇힌 죄수를 석방하고 예수님을 넘겨 주어 그들이 마음대로 하게 하였다.
26 그들이 예수님을 끌고 가다가 시골에서 올라오는 구레네 사람 시몬을 붙잡아 십자가를 지우고 예수님의 뒤를 따라가게 하였다.
27 그리고 많은 사람들이 예수님을 뒤따라갔다. 그들 가운데는 예수님 때문에 슬퍼하며 우는 여자들도 있었다.
28 예수님은 몸을 돌이켜 그들에게 이렇게 말씀하셨다. “예루살렘의 딸들아, 나를 위해 울지 말고 너희와 너희 자녀들을 위해 울어라.
29 앞으로 사람들이 ‘임신하지 못하고 아기를 낳아 보지 못하고 젖을 먹여 보지 못한 여자들이 행복하다’ 하고 말할 때가 올 것이다.
30 그때 사람들이 높은 산을 향해 [c]‘우리 위에 무너져라’ 할 것이며 낮은 산을 향해 ‘우리를 덮어라’ 할 것이다.
31 [d]푸른 나무와 같은 나도 이런 일을 당하는데 마른 나무와 같은 너희 유대인들이야 무슨 일인들 당하지 않겠느냐?”
처형
32 다른 두 죄수도 사형을 받기 위해 예수님과 함께 끌려갔다.
33 그들이 ‘해골’ 이라는 곳에 이르렀을 때 [e]군인들이 예수님을 십자가에 못박고 두 죄수도 못박았는데 하나는 예수님의 오른편에, 하나는 왼편에 매달았다.
34 그때 예수님은 “아버지, 저 사람들을 용서해 주십시오. 저들은 자기들이 하는 일을 모르고 있습니다” 하고 말씀하셨다. 그들이 예수님의 옷을 제비 뽑자
35 백성들은 서서 구경하고 [f]유대인 지도자들도 예수님을 비웃으며 “그가 남을 구원하였으니 만일 하나님이 택하신 그리스도라면 자기도 구원하게 하라” 하였다.
36 그리고 군인들도 다가와서 예수님을 조롱하고 신 포도주를 주면서
37 “네가 유대인의 왕이라면 네 자신이나 구원하여라” 하였다.
38 예수님의 머리 위에는 ‘이 사람은 유대인의 왕이다’ 라고 쓴 죄패가 붙어 있었다.
39 함께 십자가에 달린 죄수 중 한 사람은 “당신이 그리스도가 아니오? 당신 자신과 우리를 구원하시오” 하며 예수님을 모욕하였으나
40 다른 죄수는 그를 꾸짖으며 “너는 똑같이 사형 선고를 받고도 하나님을 두려워하지 않느냐?
41 우리는 죄를 지었기 때문에 이런 벌을 받아도 싸지만 이분은 잘못한 것이 아무것도 없다” 하였다.
42 그러고서 그가 “예수님, 당신의 나라에 들어가실 때 저를 기억해 주십시오” 하자
43 예수님은 그에게 “내가 분명히 말하지만 오늘 네가 나와 함께 낙원에 있게 될 것이다” 하고 말씀하셨다.
44 낮 [g]12시쯤 되어 온 땅에 어두움이 뒤덮이더니 오후 [h]3시까지 계속되었다.
45 해가 빛을 잃었고 성전 휘장이 두 쪽으로 찢어졌다.
46 그리고 예수님은 큰 소리로 “아버지, 내 영혼을 아버지 손에 맡깁니다” 하시고 숨을 거두셨다.
47 이 광경을 지켜 보고 있던 [i]장교는 하나님을 찬양하며 “이 사람은 정말 의로운 분이었구나!” 하였고
48 구경하러 모인 사람들도 일어난 일을 보고 모두 가슴을 치며 돌아갔다.
49 또 예수님을 아는 사람들과 갈릴리에서 예수님을 따라온 여자들도 멀리서 이 일을 지켜 보았다.
50 의회 의원 가운데 착하고 의로운 요셉이라는 사람이 있었다.
51 그는 의회의 결정과 행동에 따르지 않았다. 그는 유대인의 도시 아리마대 출신이었으며 하나님의 나라를 기다리는 사람이었다.
52 그가 빌라도에게 찾아가서 예수님의 시체를 요구하고
53 그 시체를 내려 고운 모시 천으로 싸서 바위를 쪼아 내어 만든 새 무덤에 모셨다.
54 그 날은 [j]안식일을 준비하는 금요일이었는데 안식일이 곧 시작되려는 참이었다.
55 갈릴리에서 예수님을 따라온 여자들은 거기까지 와서 무덤과 예수님의 시체를 어떻게 모셔 두었는가를 봐 두고
56 집으로 돌아가 향품과 향유를 준비하였다. 그리고 그들은 계명에 따라 안식일에 쉬었다.
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)
