The Crucifixion
Darby Translation (DBY)
Mat 27:32–44
- 32 And as they went forth they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name; him they compelled to go with them that he might bear his cross.
- 33 And having come to a place called Golgotha, which means Place of a skull,
- 34 they gave to him to drink vinegar mingled with gall; and having tasted it, he would not drink.
- 35 And having crucified him, they parted his clothes amongst themselves, casting lots.
- 36 And sitting down, they kept guard over him there.
- 37 And they set up over his head his accusation written: This is Jesus, the King of the Jews.
- 38 Then are crucified with him two robbers, one on the right hand and one on the left.
- 39 But the passers-by reviled him, shaking their heads
- 40 and saying, Thou that destroyest the temple and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou art Son of God, descend from the cross.
- 41 And in like manner the chief priests also, mocking, with the scribes and elders, said,
- 42 He saved others, himself he cannot save. He is King of Israel: let him descend now from the cross, and we will believe on him.
- 43 He trusted upon God; let him save him now if he will have him. For he said, I am Son of God.
- 44 And the robbers also who had been crucified with him cast the same reproaches on him.
Mrk 15:21–32
- 21 And they compel to go with them a certain passer-by, Simon, a Cyrenian, coming from the field, the father of Alexander and Rufus, that he might carry his cross.
- 22 And they bring him to the place called Golgotha, which, being interpreted, is Place of a skull.
- 23 And they offered him wine to drink medicated with myrrh; but he did not take it.
- 24 And having crucified him, they part his clothes amongst themselves, casting lots on them, what each one should take.
- 25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.
- 26 And the superscription of what he was accused of was written up: The King of the Jews.
- 27 And with him they crucify two robbers, one on his right hand, and one on his left.
- 28 And the scripture was fulfilled which says, And he was reckoned with the lawless.
- 29 And they that passed by reviled him, shaking their heads, and saying, Aha, thou that destroyest the temple and buildest it in three days,
- 30 save thyself, and descend from the cross.
- 31 In like manner the chief priests also, with the scribes, mocking with one another, said, He saved others; himself he cannot save.
- 32 Let the Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and may believe. And they that were crucified with him reproached him.
Luk 23:26–43
- 26 And as they led him away, they laid hold on a certain Simon, a Cyrenian, coming from the field, and put the cross upon him to bear it behind Jesus.
- 27 And a great multitude of the people, and of women who wailed and lamented him, followed him.
- 28 And Jesus turning round to them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep over me, but weep over yourselves and over your children;
- 29 for behold, days are coming in which they will say, Blessed are the barren, and wombs that have not borne, and breasts that have not given suck.
- 30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall upon us; and to the hills, Cover us:
- 31 for if these things are done in the green tree, what shall take place in the dry?
- 32 Now two others also, malefactors, were led with him to be put to death.
- 33 And when they came to the place which is called Skull, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, the other on the left.
- 34 And Jesus said, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. And, parting out his garments, they cast lots.
- 35 And the people stood beholding, and the rulers also with them sneered, saying, He has saved others; let him save himself if this is the Christ, the chosen one of God.
- 36 And the soldiers also made game of him, coming up offering him vinegar,
- 37 and saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.
- 38 And there was also an inscription written over him in Greek, and Roman, and Hebrew letters: This is the King of the Jews.
- 39 Now one of the malefactors who had been hanged spoke insultingly to him, saying, Art not thou the Christ? save thyself and us.
- 40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost thou too not fear God, thou that art under the same judgment?
- 41 and we indeed justly, for we receive the just recompense of what we have done; but this man has done nothing amiss.
- 42 And he said to Jesus, Remember me, Lord, when thou comest in thy kingdom.
- 43 And Jesus said to him, Verily I say to thee, To-day shalt thou be with me in paradise.
Jhn 19:16–27
- 16 Then therefore he delivered him up to them, that he might be crucified; and they took Jesus and led him away.
- 17 And he went out, bearing his cross, to the place called place of a skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha;
- 18 where they crucified him, and with him two others, one on this side, and one on that, and Jesus in the middle.
- 19 And Pilate wrote a title also and put it on the cross. But there was written: Jesus the Nazaraean, the King of the Jews.
- 20 This title therefore many of the Jews read, for the place of the city where Jesus was crucified was near; and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, Latin.
- 21 The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, Do not write, The king of the Jews, but that he said, I am king of the Jews.
- 22 Pilate answered, What I have written, I have written.
- 23 The soldiers therefore, when they had crucified Jesus, took his clothes, and made four parts, to each soldier a part, and the body-coat; but the body-coat was seamless, woven through the whole from the top.
- 24 They said therefore to one another, Let us not rend it, but let us cast lots for it, whose it shall be; that the scripture might be fulfilled which says, They parted my garments among themselves, and on my vesture they cast lots. The soldiers therefore did these things.
- 25 And by the cross of Jesus stood his mother, and the sister of his mother, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala.
- 26 Jesus therefore, seeing his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, says to his mother, Woman, behold thy son.
- 27 Then he says unto the disciple, Behold thy mother. And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.
