Luke 23
1 And the whole multitude of them, rising up, led him to Pilate.
tataḥ sabhāsthāḥ sarvvalokā utthāya taṁ pīlātasammukhaṁ nītvāprodya vaktumārebhire,
2 And they began to accuse him, saying, We have found this [man] perverting our nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying that he himself is Christ, a king.
svamabhiṣiktaṁ rājānaṁ vadantaṁ kaimararājāya karadānaṁ niṣedhantaṁ rājyaviparyyayaṁ kurttuṁ pravarttamānam ena prāptā vayaṁ|
3 And Pilate demanded of him saying, Art thou the king of the Jews? And he answering him said, Thou sayest.
tadā pīlātastaṁ pṛṣṭavān tvaṁ kiṁ yihūdīyānāṁ rājā? sa pratyuvāca tvaṁ satyamuktavān|
4 And Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, I find no guilt in this man.
tadā pīlātaḥ pradhānayājakādilokān jagād, ahametasya kamapyaparādhaṁ nāptavān|
5 But they insisted, saying, He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judaea, beginning from Galilee even on to here.
tataste punaḥ sāhamino bhūtvāvadan, eṣa gālīla etatsthānaparyyante sarvvasmin yihūdādeśe sarvvāllokānupadiśya kupravṛttiṁ grāhītavān|
6 But Pilate, having heard Galilee [named], demanded if the man were a Galilaean;
tadā pīlāto gālīlapradeśasya nāma śrutvā papraccha, kimayaṁ gālīlīyo lokaḥ?
7 and having learned that he was of Herod's jurisdiction, remitted him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem in those days.
tataḥ sa gālīlpradeśīyaherodrājasya tadā sthitestasya samīpe yīśuṁ preṣayāmāsa|
8 And when Herod saw Jesus he greatly rejoiced, for he had been a long while desirous of seeing him, because of hearing many things concerning him, and he hoped to see some sign done by him;
tadā herod yīśuṁ vilokya santutoṣa, yataḥ sa tasya bahuvṛttāntaśravaṇāt tasya kiñicadāścaryyakarmma paśyati ityāśāṁ kṛtvā bahukālamārabhya taṁ draṣṭuṁ prayāsaṁ kṛtavān|
9 and he questioned him in many words, but he answered him nothing.
tasmāt taṁ bahukathāḥ papraccha kintu sa tasya kasyāpi vākyasya pratyuttaraṁ novāca|
10 And the chief priests and the scribes stood and accused him violently.
atha pradhānayājakā adhyāpakāśca prottiṣṭhantaḥ sāhasena tamapavadituṁ prārebhire|
11 And Herod with his troops having set him at nought and mocked him, having put a splendid robe upon him, sent him back to Pilate.
herod tasya senāgaṇaśca tamavajñāya upahāsatvena rājavastraṁ paridhāpya punaḥ pīlātaṁ prati taṁ prāhiṇot|
12 And Pilate and Herod became friends with one another the same day, for they had been at enmity before between themselves.
pūrvvaṁ herodpīlātayoḥ parasparaṁ vairabhāva āsīt kintu taddine dvayo rmelanaṁ jātam|
13 And Pilate, having called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
paścāt pīlātaḥ pradhānayājakān śāsakān lokāṁśca yugapadāhūya babhāṣe,
14 said to them, Ye have brought to me this man as turning away the people [to rebellion], and behold, I, having examined him before you, have found nothing criminal in this man as to the things of which ye accuse him;
rājyaviparyyayakārakoyam ityuktvā manuṣyamenaṁ mama nikaṭamānaiṣṭa kintu paśyata yuṣmākaṁ samakṣam asya vicāraṁ kṛtvāpi proktāpavādānurūpeṇāsya kopyaparādhaḥ sapramāṇo na jātaḥ,
15 nor Herod either, for I remitted you to him, and behold, nothing worthy of death is done by him.
yūyañca herodaḥ sannidhau preṣitā mayā tatrāsya kopyaparādhastenāpi na prāptaḥ|paśyatānena vadhahetukaṁ kimapi nāparāddhaṁ|
16 Having chastised him therefore, I will release him.
tasmādenaṁ tāḍayitvā vihāsyāmi|
17 (Now he was obliged to release one for them at the feast.)
tatrotsave teṣāmeko mocayitavyaḥ|
18 But they cried out in a mass saying, Away with this [man] and release Barabbas to us;
iti hetoste proccairekadā procuḥ, enaṁ dūrīkṛtya barabbānāmānaṁ mocaya|
19 who was one who, for a certain tumult which had taken place in the city, and [for] murder, had been cast into prison.
sa barabbā nagara upaplavavadhāparādhābhyāṁ kārāyāṁ baddha āsīt|
20 Pilate therefore, desirous to release Jesus, again addressed [them].
kintu pīlāto yīśuṁ mocayituṁ vāñchan punastānuvāca|
21 But they cried out in reply saying, Crucify, crucify him.
tathāpyenaṁ kruśe vyadha kruśe vyadheti vadantaste ruruvuḥ|
22 And he said the third time to them, What evil then has this [man] done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will chastise him therefore and release him.
tataḥ sa tṛtīyavāraṁ jagāda kutaḥ? sa kiṁ karmma kṛtavān? nāhamasya kamapi vadhāparādhaṁ prāptaḥ kevalaṁ tāḍayitvāmuṁ tyajāmi|
23 But they were urgent with loud voices, begging that he might be crucified. And their voices [and those of the chief priests] prevailed.
tathāpi te punarenaṁ kruśe vyadha ityuktvā proccairdṛḍhaṁ prārthayāñcakrire;
24 And Pilate adjudged that what they begged should take place.
tataḥ pradhānayājakādīnāṁ kalarave prabale sati teṣāṁ prārthanārūpaṁ karttuṁ pīlāta ādideśa|
25 And he released him who, for tumult and murder, had been cast into prison, whom they begged for, and Jesus he delivered up to their will.
rājadrohavadhayoraparādhena kārāsthaṁ yaṁ janaṁ te yayācire taṁ mocayitvā yīśuṁ teṣāmicchāyāṁ samārpayat|
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.
atha te yīśuṁ gṛhītvā yānti, etarhi grāmādāgataṁ śimonanāmānaṁ kurīṇīyaṁ janaṁ dhṛtvā yīśoḥ paścānnetuṁ tasya skandhe kruśamarpayāmāsuḥ|
27 And a great multitude of the people, and of women who wailed and lamented him, followed him.
tato lokāraṇyamadhye bahustriyo rudatyo vilapantyaśca yīśoḥ paścād yayuḥ|
28 And Jesus turning round to them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep over me, but weep over yourselves and over your children;
kintu sa vyāghuṭya tā uvāca, he yirūśālamo nāryyo yuyaṁ madarthaṁ na ruditvā svārthaṁ svāpatyārthañca ruditi;
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.
paśyata yaḥ kadāpi garbhavatyo nābhavan stanyañca nāpāyayan tādṛśī rvandhyā yadā dhanyā vakṣyanti sa kāla āyāti|
30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall upon us; and to the hills, Cover us:
tadā he śailā asmākamupari patata, he upaśailā asmānācchādayata kathāmīdṛśīṁ lokā vakṣyanti|
31 for if these things are done in the green tree, what shall take place in the dry?
yataḥ satejasi śākhini cedetad ghaṭate tarhi śuṣkaśākhini kiṁ na ghaṭiṣyate?
32 Now two others also, malefactors, were led with him to be put to death.
tadā te hantuṁ dvāvaparādhinau tena sārddhaṁ ninyuḥ|
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.
aparaṁ śiraḥkapālanāmakasthānaṁ prāpya taṁ kruśe vividhuḥ; taddvayoraparādhinorekaṁ tasya dakṣiṇo tadanyaṁ vāme kruśe vividhuḥ|
34 And Jesus said, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. And, parting out his garments, they cast lots.
tadā yīśurakathayat, he pitaretān kṣamasva yata ete yat karmma kurvvanti tan na viduḥ; paścātte guṭikāpātaṁ kṛtvā tasya vastrāṇi vibhajya jagṛhuḥ|
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.
tatra lokasaṁghastiṣṭhan dadarśa; te teṣāṁ śāsakāśca tamupahasya jagaduḥ, eṣa itarān rakṣitavān yadīśvareṇābhirucito 'bhiṣiktastrātā bhavati tarhi svamadhunā rakṣatu|
36 And the soldiers also made game of him, coming up offering him vinegar,
tadanyaḥ senāgaṇā etya tasmai amlarasaṁ datvā parihasya provāca,
37 and saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.
cettvaṁ yihūdīyānāṁ rājāsi tarhi svaṁ rakṣa|
38 And there was also an inscription [written] over him in Greek, and Roman, and Hebrew letters: This is the King of the Jews.
yihūdīyānāṁ rājeti vākyaṁ yūnānīyaromīyebrīyākṣarai rlikhitaṁ tacchirasa ūrddhve'sthāpyata|
39 Now one of the malefactors who had been hanged spoke insultingly to him, saying, Art not thou the Christ? save thyself and us.
tadobhayapārśvayo rviddhau yāvaparādhinau tayorekastaṁ vinindya babhāṣe, cettvam abhiṣiktosi tarhi svamāvāñca rakṣa|
40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost thou too not fear God, thou that art under the same judgment?
kintvanyastaṁ tarjayitvāvadat, īśvarāttava kiñcidapi bhayaṁ nāsti kiṁ? tvamapi samānadaṇḍosi,
41 and we indeed justly, for we receive the just recompense of what we have done; but this [man] has done nothing amiss.
yogyapātre āvāṁ svasvakarmmaṇāṁ samucitaphalaṁ prāpnuvaḥ kintvanena kimapi nāparāddhaṁ|
42 And he said to Jesus, Remember me, [Lord, ] when thou comest in thy kingdom.
atha sa yīśuṁ jagāda he prabhe bhavān svarājyapraveśakāle māṁ smaratu|
43 And Jesus said to him, Verily I say to thee, To-day shalt thou be with me in paradise.
tadā yīśuḥ kathitavān tvāṁ yathārthaṁ vadāmi tvamadyaiva mayā sārddhaṁ paralokasya sukhasthānaṁ prāpsyasi|
44 And it was about [the] sixth hour, and there came darkness over the whole land until [the] ninth hour.
aparañca dvitīyayāmāt tṛtīyayāmaparyyantaṁ ravestejasontarhitatvāt sarvvadeśo'ndhakāreṇāvṛto
45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple rent in the midst.
mandirasya yavanikā ca chidyamānā dvidhā babhūva|
46 And Jesus, having cried with a loud voice, said, Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit. And having said this, he expired.
tato yīśuruccairuvāca, he pita rmamātmānaṁ tava kare samarpaye, ityuktvā sa prāṇān jahau|
47 Now the centurion, seeing what took place, glorified God, saying, In very deed this man was just.
tadaitā ghaṭanā dṛṣṭvā śatasenāpatirīśvaraṁ dhanyamuktvā kathitavān ayaṁ nitāntaṁ sādhumanuṣya āsīt|
48 And all the crowds who had come together to that sight, having seen the things that took place, returned, beating [their] breasts.
atha yāvanto lokā draṣṭum āgatāste tā ghaṭanā dṛṣṭvā vakṣaḥsu karāghātaṁ kṛtvā vyācuṭya gatāḥ|
49 And all those who knew him stood afar off, the women also who had followed him from Galilee, beholding these things.
yīśo rjñātayo yā yā yoṣitaśca gālīlastena sārddhamāyātāstā api dūre sthitvā tat sarvvaṁ dadṛśuḥ|
50 And behold, a man named Joseph, who was a councillor, a good man and a just
tadā yihūdīyānāṁ mantraṇāṁ kriyāñcāsammanyamāna īśvarasya rājatvam apekṣamāṇo
51 (this [man] had not assented to their counsel and deed), of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, who also waited, [himself also, ] for the kingdom of God
yihūdideśīyo 'rimathīyanagarīyo yūṣaphnāmā mantrī bhadro dhārmmikaśca pumān
52 — he having gone to Pilate begged the body of Jesus;
pīlātāntikaṁ gatvā yīśo rdehaṁ yayāce|
53 and having taken it down, wrapped it in fine linen and placed him in a tomb hewn in the rock, where no one had ever been laid.
paścād vapuravarohya vāsasā saṁveṣṭya yatra kopi mānuṣo nāsthāpyata tasmin śaile svāte śmaśāne tadasthāpayat|
54 And it was preparation day, and [the] sabbath twilight was coming on.
taddinamāyojanīyaṁ dinaṁ viśrāmavāraśca samīpaḥ|
55 And women, who had come along with him out of Galilee, having followed, saw the sepulchre and how his body was placed.
aparaṁ yīśunā sārddhaṁ gālīla āgatā yoṣitaḥ paścāditvā śmaśāne tatra yathā vapuḥ sthāpitaṁ tacca dṛṣṭvā
56 And having returned they prepared aromatic spices and ointments, and remained quiet on the sabbath, according to the commandment.
vyāghuṭya sugandhidravyatailāni kṛtvā vidhivad viśrāmavāre viśrāmaṁ cakruḥ|
