KJVAnd^G2532 it came to pass^G1096^(G5633), as^G1722 they^G846 were much perplexed^G1280^(G5745) thereabout^G4012^G5127,^G2532 behold^G2400^(G5628), two^G1417 men^G435 stood by^G2186^(G5627) them^G846 in^G1722 shining^G797^(G5723) garments^G2067:

KJVHe is^G2076^(G5748) not^G3756 here^G5602, but^G235 is risen^G1453^(G5681): remember^G3415^(G5682) how^G5613 he spake^G2980^(G5656) unto you^G5213 when he was^G5607^(G5752) yet^G2089 in^G1722 Galilee^G1056,

¹¹ These words seemed to them to be nonsense, and they didn’t believe them.

KJVAnd^G2532 their^G846 words^G4487 seemed^G5316^(G5648) to^G1799 them^G846 as^G5616 idle tales^G3026, and^G2532 they believed^G569 them^G846 not^G569^(G5707).

¹² But Peter got up and ran to the tomb. Stooping and looking in, he saw the strips of linen lying by themselves, and he departed to his home, wondering what had happened.

KJVThen^G1161 arose^G450^(G5631) Peter^G4074, and ran^G5143^(G5627) unto^G1909 the sepulchre^G3419; and^G2532 stooping down^G3879^(G5660), he beheld^G991^(G5719) the linen clothes^G3608 laid^G2749^(G5740) by themselves^G3441, and^G2532 departed^G565^(G5627), wondering^G2296^(G5723) in^G4314 himself^G1438 at that which was come to pass^G1096^(G5756).

¹³ Behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was sixty stadia from Jerusalem.

¹⁵ While they talked and questioned together, Jesus himself came near, and went with them.

KJVAnd^G2532 it came to pass^G1096^(G5633), that, while^G1722 they^G846 communed^G3656^(G5721) together and^G2532 reasoned^G4802^(G5721), Jesus^G2424 himself^G2532^G846 drew near^G1448^(G5660), and went with^G4848^(G5711) them^G846.

¹⁶ But their eyes were kept from recognizing him.

KJVBut^G1161 their^G846 eyes^G3788 were holden^G2902^(G5712) that they should^G1921 not^G3361 know^G1921^(G5629) him^G846.

¹⁷ He said to them, “What are you talking about as you walk, and are sad?”

KJVAnd^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 them^G846, What^G5101 manner of communications^G3056 are these^G3778 that^G3739 ye have^G474^(G5719) one to^G4314 another^G240, as ye walk^G4043^(G5723), and^G2532 are^G2075^(G5748) sad^G4659?

¹⁸ One of them, named Cleopas, answered him, “Are you the only stranger in Jerusalem who doesn’t know the things which have happened there in these days?”

KJVAnd^G1161 the one of them^G1520, whose^G3739 name^G3686 was Cleopas^G2810, answering^G611^(G5679) said^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 him^G846, Art thou^G4771 only^G3441 a stranger^G3939^(G5719) in^G1722 Jerusalem^G2419, and^G2532 hast^G1097 not^G3756 known^G1097^(G5627) the things which are come to pass^G1096^(G5637) there^G1722^G846 in^G1722 these^G5025 days^G2250?

¹⁹ He said to them, “What things?” They said to him, “The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people;

KJVAnd^G2532 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, What things^G4169? And^G1161 they said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Concerning^G4012 Jesus^G2424 of Nazareth^G3480, which^G3739 was^G1096^(G5633) a prophet^G4396 mighty^G1415 in^G1722^G435 deed^G2041 and^G2532 word^G3056 before^G1726 God^G2316 and^G2532 all^G3956 the people^G2992:

²⁰ and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him.

KJVAnd how^G3704^G5037 the chief priests^G749 and^G2532 our^G2257 rulers^G758 delivered^G3860^(G5656) him^G846 to^G1519 be condemned^G2917 to death^G2288, and^G2532 have crucified^G4717^(G5656) him^G846.

²¹ But we were hoping that it was he who would redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things happened.

KJVBut^G1161 we^G2249 trusted^G1679^(G5707) that^G3754 it had been^G2076^(G5748) he^G846 which should^G3195^(G5723) have redeemed^G3084^(G5733) Israel^G2474: and^G235 beside^G1065^G4862 all^G3956 this^G5125, to day^G4594 is^G71^(G5719) the^G5026 third^G5154 day^G2250 since^G575^G3739 these things^G5023 were done^G1096^(G5633).

²² Also, certain women of our company amazed us, having arrived early at the tomb;

KJVYea^G235, and certain^G5100 women^G1135 also^G2532 of^G1537 our company^G2257 made^G1839 us^G2248 astonished^G1839^(G5627), which were^G1096^(G5637) early^G3721 at^G1909 the sepulchre^G3419;

²³ and when they didn’t find his body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.

KJVAnd^G2532 when they found^G2147^(G5631) not^G3361 his^G846 body^G4983, they came^G2064^(G5627), saying^G3004^(G5723), that they had^G3708 also^G2532 seen^G3708^(G5760) a vision^G3701 of angels^G32, which^G3739 said^G3004^(G5719) that he^G846 was alive^G2198^(G5721).

²⁴ Some of us went to the tomb and found it just like the women had said, but they didn’t see him.”

KJVAnd^G2532 certain of them^G5100 which were with^G4862 us^G2254 went^G565^(G5627) to^G1909 the sepulchre^G3419, and^G2532 found^G2147^(G5627) it even^G2532 so^G3779 as^G2531 the women^G1135 had said^G2036^(G5627): but^G1161 him^G846 they saw^G1492^(G5627) not^G3756.

²⁵ He said to them, “Foolish people, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!

KJVThen^G2532 he^G846 said^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 them^G846, O^G5599 fools^G453, and^G2532 slow^G1021 of heart^G2588 to believe^G4100^(G5721)^G1909 all^G3956 that^G3739 the prophets^G4396 have spoken^G2980^(G5656):

²⁶ Didn’t the Christ have to suffer these things and to enter into his glory?”

KJVOught^G1163^(G5713) not^G3780 Christ^G5547 to have suffered^G3958^(G5629) these things^G5023, and^G2532 to enter^G1525^(G5629) into^G1519 his^G846 glory^G1391?

²⁷ Beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, he explained to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.

KJVAnd^G2532 beginning^G756^(G5671) at^G575 Moses^G3475 and^G2532^G575 all^G3956 the prophets^G4396, he expounded^G1329^(G5707) unto them^G846 in^G1722 all^G3956 the scriptures^G1124 the things concerning^G4012 himself^G1438.

²⁸ They came near to the village where they were going, and he acted like he would go further.

KJVAnd^G2532 they drew nigh^G1448^(G5656) unto^G1519 the village^G2968, whither^G3757 they went^G4198^(G5711): and^G2532 he^G846 made as though^G4364^(G5710) he would have gone^G4198^(G5738) further^G4208.

²⁹ They urged him, saying, “Stay with us, for it is almost evening, and the day is almost over.” He went in to stay with them.

KJVBut^G2532 they constrained^G3849^(G5662) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Abide^G3306^(G5657) with^G3326 us^G2257: for^G3754 it is^G2076^(G5748) toward^G4314 evening^G2073, and^G2532 the day^G2250 is far spent^G2827^(G5758). And^G2532 he went in^G1525^(G5627) to tarry^G3306^(G5658) with^G4862 them^G846.

³⁰ When he had sat down at the table with them, he took the bread and gave thanks. Breaking it, he gave it to them.

KJVAnd^G2532 it came to pass^G1096^(G5633), as^G1722 he^G846 sat at meat^G2625^(G5683) with^G3326 them^G846, he took^G2983^(G5631) bread^G740, and blessed^G2127^(G5656) it, and^G2532 brake^G2806^(G5660), and gave^G1929^(G5707) to them^G846.

³¹ Their eyes were opened and they recognized him; then he vanished out of their sight.

KJVAnd^G1161 their^G846 eyes^G3788 were opened^G1272^(G5681), and^G2532 they knew^G1921^(G5627) him^G846; and^G2532 he^G846 vanished^G1096^(G5633)^G855 out of^G575 their sight^G846.

³² They said to one another, “Weren’t our hearts burning within us while he spoke to us along the way, and while he opened the Scriptures to us?”

KJVAnd^G2532 they said^G2036^(G5627) one to another^G4314^G240, Did^G2258^(G5713) not^G3780 our^G2257 heart^G2588 burn^G2545^(G5746) within^G1722 us^G2254, while^G5613 he talked^G2980^(G5707) with us^G2254 by^G1722 the way^G3598, and^G2532 while^G5613 he opened^G1272^(G5707) to us^G2254 the scriptures^G1124?

³³ They rose up that very hour, returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and those who were with them,

KJVAnd^G2532 they rose up^G450^(G5631) the same^G846 hour^G5610, and returned^G5290^(G5656) to^G1519 Jerusalem^G2419, and^G2532 found^G2147^(G5627) the eleven^G1733 gathered together^G4867^(G5772), and^G2532 them that were with^G4862 them^G846,

³⁴ saying, “The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!”

KJVSaying^G3004^(G5723),^G3754 The Lord^G2962 is risen^G1453^(G5681) indeed^G3689, and^G2532 hath appeared^G3700^(G5681) to Simon^G4613.

³⁵ They related the things that happened along the way, and how he was recognized by them in the breaking of the bread.

KJVAnd^G2532 they^G846 told^G1834^(G5711) what things were done in^G1722 the way^G3598, and^G2532 how^G5613 he was known^G1097^(G5681) of them^G846 in^G1722 breaking^G2800 of bread^G740.

³⁶ As they said these things, Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, “Peace be to you.”

KJVAnd^G1161 as they^G846 thus^G5023 spake^G2980^(G5723), Jesus^G2424 himself^G846 stood^G2476^(G5627) in^G1722 the midst^G3319 of them^G846, and^G2532 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Peace^G1515 be unto you^G5213.

³⁷ But they were terrified and filled with fear, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.

KJVBut^G1161 they were terrified^G4422^(G5685) and^G2532 affrighted^G1719^G1096^(G5637), and supposed^G1380^(G5707) that they had seen^G2334^(G5721) a spirit^G4151.

³⁸ He said to them, “Why are you troubled? Why do doubts arise in your hearts?

KJVAnd^G2532 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Why^G5101 are ye^G2075^(G5748) troubled^G5015^(G5772)? and^G2532 why^G1302 do thoughts^G1261 arise^G305^(G5719) in^G1722 your^G5216 hearts^G2588?

³⁹ See my hands and my feet, that it is truly me. Touch me and see, for a spirit doesn’t have flesh and bones, as you see that I have.”

KJVBehold^G1492^(G5628) my^G3450 hands^G5495 and^G2532 my^G3450 feet^G4228, that^G3754 it is^G1510^(G5748) I^G1473 myself^G846: handle^G5584^(G5657) me^G3165, and^G2532 see^G1492^(G5628); for^G3754 a spirit^G4151 hath^G2192^(G5719) not^G3756 flesh^G4561 and^G2532 bones^G3747, as^G2531 ye see^G2334^(G5719) me^G1691 have^G2192^(G5723).

⁴⁰ When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet.

KJVAnd^G2532 when he had thus^G5124 spoken^G2036^(G5631), he shewed^G1925^(G5656) them^G846 his hands^G5495 and^G2532 his feet^G4228.

⁴¹ While they still didn’t believe for joy, and wondered, he said to them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”

KJVAnd^G1161 while they^G846 yet^G2089 believed not^G569^(G5723) for^G575 joy^G5479, and^G2532 wondered^G2296^(G5723), he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Have ye^G2192^(G5719) here^G1759 any^G5100 meat^G1034?

⁴² They gave him a piece of a broiled fish and some honeycomb.

KJVAnd^G1161 they gave^G1929^(G5656) him^G846 a piece^G3313 of a broiled^G3702 fish^G2486, and^G2532 of^G575 an honeycomb^G3193^G2781.

⁴³ He took them, and ate in front of them.

KJVAnd^G2532 he took^G2983^(G5631) it, and did eat^G5315^(G5627) before^G1799 them^G846.

⁴⁴ He said to them, “This is what I told you while I was still with you, that all things which are written in the law of Moses, the prophets, and the psalms concerning me must be fulfilled.”

KJVAnd^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, These^G3778 are the words^G3056 which^G3739 I spake^G2980^(G5656) unto^G4314 you^G5209, while^G5607^(G5752) I was yet^G2089 with^G4862 you^G5213, that^G3754 all things^G3956 must^G1163^(G5748) be fulfilled^G4137^(G5683), which^G3588 were written^G1125^(G5772) in^G1722 the law^G3551 of Moses^G3475, and^G2532 in the prophets^G4396, and^G2532 in the psalms^G5568, concerning^G4012 me^G1700.

⁴⁵ Then he opened their minds, that they might understand the Scriptures.

KJVThen^G5119 opened he^G1272^(G5656) their^G846 understanding^G3563, that they might understand^G4920^(G5721) the scriptures^G1124,

⁴⁶ He said to them, “Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day,

KJVAnd^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Thus^G3754^G3779 it is written^G1125^(G5769), and^G2532 thus^G3779 it behoved^G1163^(G5713) Christ^G5547 to suffer^G3958^(G5629), and^G2532 to rise^G450^(G5629) from^G1537 the dead^G3498 the third^G5154 day^G2250:

⁴⁷ and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name to all the nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

KJVAnd^G2532 that repentance^G3341 and^G2532 remission^G859 of sins^G266 should be preached^G2784^(G5683) in^G1909 his^G846 name^G3686 among^G1519 all^G3956 nations^G1484, beginning^G756^(G5671) at^G575 Jerusalem^G2419.

⁴⁸ You are witnesses of these things.

KJVAnd^G1161 ye^G5210 are^G2075^(G5748) witnesses^G3144 of these things^G5130.

⁴⁹ Behold, I send out the promise of my Father on you. But wait in the city of Jerusalem until you are clothed with power from on high.”

KJVAnd^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), I^G1473 send^G649^(G5719) the promise^G1860 of my^G3450 Father^G3962 upon^G1909 you^G5209: but^G1161 tarry^G2523^(G5657) ye^G5210 in^G1722 the city^G4172 of Jerusalem^G2419, until^G2193 ye^G3739 be endued^G1746^(G5672) with power^G1411 from^G1537 on high^G5311.

⁵⁰ He led them out as far as Bethany, and he lifted up his hands and blessed them.

KJVAnd^G1161 he led^G1806^(G5627) them^G846 out^G1854 as far as^G2193 to^G1519 Bethany^G963, and^G2532 he lifted up^G1869^(G5660) his^G846 hands^G5495, and blessed^G2127^(G5656) them^G846.

⁵¹ While he blessed them, he withdrew from them and was carried up into heaven.

KJVAnd^G2532 it came to pass^G1096^(G5633), while^G1722 he^G846 blessed^G2127^(G5721) them^G846, he was parted^G1339^(G5627) from^G575 them^G846, and^G2532 carried up^G399^(G5712) into^G1519 heaven^G3772.

⁵² They worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,

KJVAnd^G2532 they^G846 worshipped^G4352^(G5660) him^G846, and returned^G5290^(G5656) to^G1519 Jerusalem^G2419 with^G3326 great^G3173 joy^G5479:

⁵³ and were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.

KJVAnd^G2532 were^G2258^(G5713) continually^G1275 in^G1722 the temple^G2411, praising^G134^(G5723) and^G2532 blessing^G2127^(G5723) God^G2316. Amen^G281.

WEB·Luke 23

¹The whole company of them rose up and brought him before Pilate.

KJVAnd^G2532 the whole^G537 multitude^G4128 of them^G846 arose^G450^(G5631), and led^G71^(G5627) him^G846 unto^G1909 Pilate^G4091.

² They began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man perverting the nation, forbidding paying taxes to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ, a king.”

KJVAnd^G1161 they began^G756^(G5662) to accuse^G2723^(G5721) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), We found^G2147^(G5627) this^G5126 fellow perverting^G1294^(G5723) the nation^G1484, and^G2532 forbidding^G2967^(G5723) to give^G1325^(G5721) tribute^G5411 to Caesar^G2541, saying^G3004^(G5723) that he himself^G1438 is^G1511^(G5750) Christ^G5547 a King^G935.

³ Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered him, “So you say.”

KJVAnd^G1161 Pilate^G4091 asked^G1905^(G5656) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Art^G1488^(G5748) thou^G4771 the King^G935 of the Jews^G2453? And^G1161 he answered^G611^(G5679) him^G846 and said^G5346^(G5713), Thou^G4771 sayest^G3004^(G5719) it.

⁴ Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”

KJVThen^G1161 said^G2036^(G5627) Pilate^G4091 to^G4314 the chief priests^G749 and^G2532 to the people^G3793, I find^G2147^(G5719) no^G3762 fault^G158 in^G1722 this^G5129 man^G444.

⁵ But they insisted, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place.”

KJVAnd^G1161 they were the more fierce^G2001^(G5707), saying^G3004^(G5723)^G3754, He stirreth up^G383^(G5719) the people^G2992, teaching^G1321^(G5723) throughout^G2596 all^G3650 Jewry^G2449, beginning^G756^(G5671) from^G575 Galilee^G1056 to^G2193 this place^G5602.

⁶ But when Pilate heard Galilee mentioned, he asked if the man was a Galilean.

KJVWhen^G1161 Pilate^G4091 heard^G191^(G5660) of Galilee^G1056, he asked^G1905^(G5656) whether^G1487 the man^G444 were^G2076^(G5748) a Galilaean^G1057.

⁷ When he found out that he was in Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem during those days.

KJVAnd^G2532 as soon as he knew^G1921^(G5631) that^G3754 he belonged^G2076^(G5748) unto^G1537 Herod's^G2264 jurisdiction^G1849, he sent^G375^(G5656) him^G846 to^G4314 Herod^G2264, who^G5607 himself^G846 also^G2532 was^G5607^(G5752) at^G1722 Jerusalem^G2414 at^G1722 that^G5025 time^G2250.

⁸ Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad, for he had wanted to see him for a long time, because he had heard many things about him. He hoped to see some miracle done by him.

KJVAnd^G1161 when Herod^G2264 saw^G1492^(G5631) Jesus^G2424, he was exceeding^G3029 glad^G5463^(G5644): for^G1063 he was^G2258^(G5713) desirous^G2309^(G5723) to see^G1492^(G5629) him^G846 of^G1537 a long^G2425 season, because^G1223 he had heard^G191^(G5721) many things^G4183 of^G4012 him^G846; and^G2532 he hoped^G1679^(G5707) to have seen^G1492^(G5629) some^G5100 miracle^G4592 done^G1096^(G5740) by^G5259 him^G846.

⁹ He questioned him with many words, but he gave no answers.

KJVThen^G1161 he questioned^G1905^(G5707) with him^G846 in^G1722 many^G2425 words^G3056; but^G1161 he^G846 answered^G611^(G5662) him^G846 nothing^G3762.

¹⁰ The chief priests and the scribes stood, vehemently accusing him.

KJVAnd^G1161 the chief priests^G749 and^G2532 scribes^G1122 stood^G2476^(G5715) and vehemently^G2159 accused^G2723^(G5723) him^G846.

¹¹ Herod with his soldiers humiliated him and mocked him. Dressing him in luxurious clothing, they sent him back to Pilate.

KJVAnd^G1161 Herod^G2264 with^G4862 his^G846 men of war^G4753 set^G1848 him^G846 at nought^G1848^(G5660), and^G2532 mocked^G1702^(G5660) him, and arrayed^G4016^(G5631) him^G846 in a gorgeous^G2986 robe^G2066, and sent^G375 him^G846 again^G375^(G5656) to Pilate^G4091.

¹² Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before that they were enemies with each other.

KJVAnd^G1161^G3739 the same^G1722^G846 day^G2250 Pilate^G4091 and^G2532 Herod^G2264 were made^G1096^(G5633) friends^G5384 together^G3326^G5037^G240: for^G1063 before^G4391^(G5707) they were^G5607^(G5752) at^G1722 enmity^G2189 between^G4314 themselves^G1438.

¹³ Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,

KJVAnd^G1161 Pilate^G4091, when he had called together^G4779^(G5671) the chief priests^G749 and^G2532 the rulers^G758 and^G2532 the people^G2992,

¹⁴ and said to them, “You brought this man to me as one that perverts the people, and behold, having examined him before you, I found no basis for a charge against this man concerning those things of which you accuse him.

KJVSaid^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 them^G846, Ye have brought^G4374^(G5656) this^G5129 man^G444 unto me^G3427, as^G5613 one that perverteth^G654^(G5723) the people^G2992: and^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), I^G1473, having examined^G350^(G5660) him before^G1799 you^G5216, have found^G2147^(G5627) no^G3762 fault^G158 in^G1722 this^G5126 man^G444 touching those things^G3739 whereof^G2596 ye accuse^G2723^(G5719) him^G846:

¹⁵ Neither has Herod, for I sent you to him, and see, nothing worthy of death has been done by him.

KJVNo^G235, nor yet^G3761 Herod^G2264: for^G1063 I sent^G375^(G5656) you^G5209 to^G4314 him^G846; and^G2532, lo^G2400^(G5628), nothing^G3762 worthy^G514 of death^G2288 is^G2076^(G5748) done^G4238^(G5772) unto him^G846.

¹⁶ I will therefore chastise him and release him.”

KJVI will^G3811 therefore^G3767 chastise^G3811^(G5660) him^G846, and release^G630^(G5692) him.

¹⁷ Now he had to release one prisoner to them at the feast.

KJV(For^G1161 of necessity^G318 he must^G2192^(G5707) release^G630^(G5721) one^G1520 unto them^G846 at^G2596 the feast^G1859.)

¹⁸ But they all cried out together, saying, “Away with this man! Release to us Barabbas!”—

KJVAnd^G1161 they cried out^G349^(G5656) all at once^G3826, saying^G3004^(G5723), Away with^G142^(G5720) this^G5126 man, and^G1161 release^G630^(G5657) unto us^G2254 Barabbas^G912:

¹⁹ one who was thrown into prison for a certain revolt in the city, and for murder.

KJV(Who^G3748 for^G2258^(G5713)^G1223 a certain^G5100 sedition^G4714 made^G1096^(G5637) in^G1722 the city^G4172, and^G2532 for murder^G5408, was cast^G906^(G5772) into^G1519 prison^G5438.)

²⁰ Then Pilate spoke to them again, wanting to release Jesus,

KJVPilate^G4091 therefore^G3767, willing^G2309^(G5723) to release^G630^(G5658) Jesus^G2424, spake^G4377 again^G3825 to them^G4377^(G5656).

²¹ but they shouted, saying, “Crucify! Crucify him!”

KJVBut^G1161 they cried^G2019^(G5707), saying^G3004^(G5723), Crucify^G4717^(G5657) him, crucify^G4717^(G5657) him^G846.

²² He said to them the third time, “Why? What evil has this man done? I have found no capital crime in him. I will therefore chastise him and release him.”

KJVAnd^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 them^G846 the third time^G5154, Why^G1063, what^G5101 evil^G2556 hath^G4160 he^G3778 done^G4160^(G5656)? I have found^G2147^(G5627) no^G3762 cause^G158 of death^G2288 in^G1722 him^G846: I will^G3811 therefore^G3767 chastise^G3811^(G5660) him^G846, and let him go^G630^(G5692).

²³ But they were urgent with loud voices, asking that he might be crucified. Their voices and the voices of the chief priests prevailed.

KJVAnd^G1161 they were instant^G1945^(G5711) with loud^G3173 voices^G5456, requiring^G154^(G5734) that he^G846 might be crucified^G4717^(G5683). And^G2532 the voices^G5456 of them^G846 and^G2532 of the chief priests^G749 prevailed^G2729^(G5707).

²⁴ Pilate decreed that what they asked for should be done.

KJVAnd^G1161 Pilate^G4091 gave sentence^G1948^(G5656) that it should be as^G1096^(G5635) they^G846 required^G155.

²⁵ He released him who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, for whom they asked, but he delivered Jesus up to their will.

KJVAnd^G1161 he released^G630^(G5656) unto them^G846 him that for^G1223 sedition^G4714 and^G2532 murder^G5408 was cast^G906^(G5772) into^G1519 prison^G5438, whom^G3739 they had desired^G154^(G5710); but^G1161 he delivered^G3860^(G5656) Jesus^G2424 to their^G846 will^G2307.

²⁶ When they led him away, they grabbed one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, and laid the cross on him to carry it after Jesus.

KJVAnd^G2532 as^G5613 they led^G520 him^G846 away^G520^(G5627), they laid hold upon^G1949^(G5637) one^G5100 Simon^G4613, a Cyrenian^G2956, coming^G2064^(G5740) out of^G575 the country^G68, and on^G2007 him^G846 they laid^G2007^(G5656) the cross^G4716, that he might bear^G5342^(G5721) it after^G3693 Jesus^G2424.

²⁷ A great multitude of the people followed him, including women who also mourned and lamented him.

KJVAnd^G1161 there followed^G190^(G5707) him^G846 a great^G4183 company^G4128 of people^G2992, and^G2532 of women^G1135, which^G3739 also^G2532 bewailed^G2875^(G5710) and^G2532 lamented^G2354^(G5707) him^G846.

²⁸ But Jesus, turning to them, said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, don’t weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

KJVBut^G1161 Jesus^G2424 turning^G4762^(G5651) unto^G4314 them^G846 said^G2036^(G5627), Daughters^G2364 of Jerusalem^G2419, weep^G2799^(G5720) not^G3361 for^G1909 me^G1691, but^G4133 weep^G2799^(G5720) for^G1909 yourselves^G1438, and^G2532 for^G1909 your^G5216 children^G5043.

²⁹ For behold, the days are coming in which they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren, the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.’

KJVFor^G3754, behold^G2400^(G5628), the days^G2250 are coming^G2064^(G5736), in^G1722 the which^G3739 they shall say^G2046^(G5692), Blessed^G3107 are the barren^G4723, and^G2532 the wombs^G2836 that^G3739 never^G3756 bare^G1080^(G5656), and^G2532 the paps^G3149 which^G3739 never^G3756 gave suck^G2337^(G5656).

³⁰ Then they will begin to tell the mountains, ‘Fall on us!’ and tell the hills, ‘Cover us.’

KJVThen^G5119 shall they begin^G756^(G5698) to say^G3004^(G5721) to the mountains^G3735, Fall^G4098^(G5628) on^G1909 us^G2248; and^G2532 to the hills^G1015, Cover^G2572^(G5657) us^G2248.

³¹ For if they do these things in the green tree, what will be done in the dry?”

KJVFor^G3754 if^G1487 they do^G4160^(G5719) these things^G5023 in^G1722 a green^G5200 tree^G3586, what^G5101 shall be done^G1096^(G5638) in^G1722 the dry^G3584?

³² There were also others, two criminals, led with him to be put to death.

KJVAnd^G1161 there were also^G2532 two^G1417 other^G2087, malefactors^G2557, led^G71^(G5712) with^G4862 him^G846 to be put to death^G337^(G5683).

³³ When they came to the place that is called “The Skull”, they crucified him there with the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left.

KJVAnd^G2532 when^G3753 they were come^G565^(G5627) to^G1909 the place^G5117, which^G3588 is called^G2564^(G5746) Calvary^G2898, there^G1563 they crucified^G4717^(G5656) him^G846, and^G2532 the malefactors^G2557, one^G3739^G3303 on^G1537 the right hand^G1188, and^G1161 the other^G3739 on^G1537 the left^G710.

³⁴ Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.” Dividing his garments among them, they cast lots.

KJVThen^G1161 said^G3004^(G5707) Jesus^G2424, Father^G3962, forgive^G863^(G5628) them^G846; for^G1063 they know^G1492^(G5758) not^G3756 what^G5101 they do^G4160^(G5719). And^G1161 they parted^G1266^(G5734) his^G846 raiment^G2440, and cast^G906^(G5627) lots^G2819.

³⁵ The people stood watching. The rulers with them also scoffed at him, saying, “He saved others. Let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, his chosen one!”

KJVAnd^G2532 the people^G2992 stood^G2476^(G5715) beholding^G2334^(G5723). And^G1161 the rulers^G758 also^G2532 with^G4862 them^G846 derided^G1592^(G5707) him, saying^G3004^(G5723), He saved^G4982^(G5656) others^G243; let him save^G4982^(G5657) himself^G1438, if^G1487 he^G3778 be^G2076^(G5748) Christ^G5547, the chosen^G1588 of God^G2316.

³⁶ The soldiers also mocked him, coming to him and offering him vinegar,

KJVAnd^G1161 the soldiers^G4757 also^G2532 mocked^G1702^(G5707) him^G846, coming^G4334^(G5740) to him, and^G2532 offering^G4374^(G5723) him^G846 vinegar^G3690,

³⁷ and saying, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!”

KJVAnd^G2532 saying^G3004^(G5723), If^G1487 thou^G4771 be^G1488^(G5748) the king^G935 of the Jews^G2453, save^G4982^(G5657) thyself^G4572.

³⁸ An inscription was also written over him in letters of Greek, Latin, and Hebrew: “THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.”

KJVAnd^G1161 a superscription^G1923 also^G2532 was^G2258^(G5713) written^G1125^(G5772) over^G1909 him^G846 in letters^G1121 of Greek^G1673, and^G2532 Latin^G4513, and^G2532 Hebrew^G1444, THIS^G3778 IS^G2076^(G5748) THE KING^G935 OF THE JEWS^G2453.

³⁹ One of the criminals who was hanged insulted him, saying, “If you are the Christ, save yourself and us!”

KJVAnd^G1161 one^G1520 of the malefactors^G2557 which were hanged^G2910^(G5685) railed^G987^(G5707) on him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), If^G1487 thou^G4771 be^G1488^(G5748) Christ^G5547, save^G4982^(G5657) thyself^G4572 and^G2532 us^G2248.

⁴⁰ But the other answered, and rebuking him said, “Don’t you even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?

KJVBut^G1161 the other^G2087 answering^G611^(G5679) rebuked^G2008^(G5707) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Dost^G5399 not^G3761 thou^G4771 fear^G5399^(G5736) God^G2316, seeing^G3754 thou art^G1488^(G5748) in^G1722 the same^G846 condemnation^G2917?

⁴¹ And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward for our deeds, but this man has done nothing wrong.”

KJVAnd^G2532 we^G2249 indeed^G3303 justly^G1346; for^G1063 we receive^G618^(G5719) the due reward^G514 of our^G3739 deeds^G4238^(G5656): but^G1161 this man^G3778 hath done^G4238^(G5656) nothing^G3762 amiss^G824.

⁴² He said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when you come into your Kingdom.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he said^G3004^(G5707) unto Jesus^G2424, Lord^G2962, remember^G3415^(G5682) me^G3450 when^G3752 thou comest^G2064^(G5632) into^G1722 thy^G4675 kingdom^G932.

⁴³ Jesus said to him, “Assuredly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Verily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto thee^G4671, To day^G4594 shalt thou be^G2071^(G5704) with^G3326 me^G1700 in^G1722 paradise^G3857.

⁴⁴ It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour.

KJVAnd^G1161 it was^G2258^(G5713) about^G5616 the sixth^G1623 hour^G5610, and^G2532 there was^G1096^(G5633) a darkness^G4655 over^G1909 all^G3650 the earth^G1093 until^G2193 the ninth^G1766 hour^G5610.

⁴⁵ The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two.

KJVAnd^G2532 the sun^G2246 was darkened^G4654^(G5681), and^G2532 the veil^G2665 of the temple^G3485 was rent^G4977^(G5681) in the midst^G3319.

⁴⁶ Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” Having said this, he breathed his last.

KJVAnd^G2532 when Jesus^G2424 had cried^G5455^(G5660) with a loud^G3173 voice^G5456, he said^G2036^(G5627), Father^G3962, into^G1519 thy^G4675 hands^G5495 I commend^G3908^(G5695) my^G3450 spirit^G4151: and^G2532 having said^G2036^(G5631) thus^G5023, he gave up the ghost^G1606^(G5656).

⁴⁷ When the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, “Certainly this was a righteous man.”
