[11 ](/kjv/luke/23/11) 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 ](/kjv/luke/23/12) ¶ And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between themselves. [13 ](/kjv/luke/23/13) ¶ And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people, [14 ](/kjv/luke/23/14) 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 ](/kjv/luke/23/15) No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing worthy of death is done unto him. [16 ](/kjv/luke/23/16) I will therefore chastise him, and release *him*. [17 ](/kjv/luke/23/17) (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.) [18 ](/kjv/luke/23/18) And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this *man*, and release unto us Barabbas: [19 ](/kjv/luke/23/19) (Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison.) [20 ](/kjv/luke/23/20) Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake again to them. [21 ](/kjv/luke/23/21) But they cried, saying, Crucify *him*, crucify him. [22 ](/kjv/luke/23/22) 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 ](/kjv/luke/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. [24 ](/kjv/luke/23/24) And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required. [25 ](/kjv/luke/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. [26 ](/kjv/luke/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. [27 ](/kjv/luke/23/27) ¶ And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him. [28 ](/kjv/luke/23/28) But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children. [29 ](/kjv/luke/23/29) 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 ](/kjv/luke/23/30) Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us. [31 ](/kjv/luke/23/31) For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry? [32 ](/kjv/luke/23/32) And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be put to death. [33 ](/kjv/luke/23/33) 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 ](/kjv/luke/23/34) ¶ Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots. [35 ](/kjv/luke/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. [36 ](/kjv/luke/23/36) And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar, [37 ](/kjv/luke/23/37) And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself. [38 ](/kjv/luke/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. [39 ](/kjv/luke/23/39) ¶ And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. [40 ](/kjv/luke/23/40) But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? [41 ](/kjv/luke/23/41) And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.
