May the Lord bless these readings of His holy Word.
23:1 And the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate.
23:2 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.
23:3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Are you the King of the Jews? And
he answered him and said, You say it.
23:4 Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people, I find
no fault in this man.
23:5 And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirs up the people,
teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place.
23:6 When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a
Galilaean.
23:7 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.
23:8 And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad: for had
desired to see him for a long time, because he had heard many things
of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.
23:9 Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him
nothing.
23:10 And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused
him.
23:11 And Herod with his men of war treated him with contempt, and
mocked him and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to
Pilate.
23:12 And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together:
for before they were at enmity between themselves.
23:13 And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and
the rulers and the people,
23:14 Said unto them, You have brought this man unto me, as one that
perverts the people: and, behold, I, having examined him before you,
have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof you
accuse him:
23:15 No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing
worthy of death is done unto him.
23:16 I will therefore chastise him, and release him.
23:17 (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)
23:18 And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and
release unto us Barabbas:
23:19 (Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder,
was cast into prison.)
23:20 Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spoke again to
them.
23:21 But they cried, saying, Crucify him, crucify him.
23:22 And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil has he
done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore
chastise him, and let him go.
23:23 And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might
be crucified. And the voices of them and of the chief priests
prevailed.
23:24 And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.
23:25 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.
23:26 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.
23:27 And there followed him a great company of people, and of women,
which also bewailed and lamented him.
23:28 But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep
not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
23:29 For, behold, the days are coming, in which they shall say,
Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bore, and the paps
which never gave suck.
23:30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and
to the hills, Cover us.
23:31 For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done
in the dry?
23:32 And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be
put to death.
23:33 And when they had 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.
23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what
they do. And they parted his clothing, and cast lots.
23:35 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.
23:36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering
him vinegar,
23:37 And saying, If you be the king of the Jews, save yourself.
23:38 And a superscription also was written over him in letters of
Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
23:39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him,
saying, If you be Christ, save yourself and us.
23:40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Do not you fear
God, seeing you are in the same condemnation?
23:41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our
deeds: but this man has done nothing amiss.
23:42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when you come into
your kingdom.
23:43 And Jesus said unto him, Truthfully I say unto you, Today shall
you be with me in paradise.
23:44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over
all the earth until the ninth hour.
23:45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was tore
in the midst.
23:46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father,
into your hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up
the ghost.
23:47 Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God,
saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.
23:48 And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding
the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.
23:49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from
Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.
23:50 And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counselor; and he
was a good man, and a just:
23:51 (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.
23:52 This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.
23:53 And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a
sepulcher that was hewn in stone, in which never man before was laid.
23:54 And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on.
23:55 And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed
after, and beheld the sepulcher, and how his body was laid.
23:56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and
rested the sabbath day according to the commandment.
