Luke 23
1 Then the whole group got up and took Jesus to Pilate, [the Roman governor].
Då stod upp hele hopen af dem, och ledde honom bort till Pilatum;
2 They began to accuse Jesus, saying, “We [(exc)] have determined that this fellow has caused political trouble in our country. He has been [telling people that they should] not pay taxes to the Roman government [MTY]. Also, he says that he is the Messiah, a king!”
Och begynte till att klaga på honom, sägande: Denna hafve vi beslagit dermed, att han förvänder folket, och förbjuder gifva Kejsarenom skatt, och säger sig vara Christus en Konung.
3 Pilate asked him, “Do you [(sg) claim that you are] the King of the Jews?” He replied, “[It is] as you have [just] now said.”
Och Pilatus frågade honom, sägandes: Äst du Judarnas Konung? Då svarade han honom, och sade: Du säger det.
4 Pilate said to the chief priests and [the rest of] the crowd, “I do not conclude that this man is guilty of any crime.”
Då sade Pilatus till öfversta Presterna, och till folket: Jag finner intet brott med denna mannen.
5 But they kept insisting, “He is inciting the people [to riot]! He has been teaching his [ideas] throughout all of Judea [district]. He started [doing it] in Galilee [district] and now he is doing it here!”
Men de höllo sitt tal fram, sägande: Han gör uppror ibland folket, lärandes öfver allt Judiska landet, begynnandes i Galileen, och sedan allt hit.
6 When Pilate heard that, he asked, “Is this man from Galilee [district]?”
Då Pilatus hörde nämnas Galileen, frågade han, om han var en Galileisk man.
7 When they told him that Jesus was [from Galilee, which was the district] that Herod [Antipas] ruled, [he told them] to take Jesus to Herod [Antipas], because Herod was in Jerusalem at that time.
Och då han förnam, att han var under Herodis välde, försände han honom till Herodes; ty han var ock i Jerusalem på den tiden.
8 [So they did]. When Herod saw Jesus, he was very happy. He [had heard about Jesus], and he had been hoping for a long time that he could see Jesus perform a miracle.
Då Herodes fick se Jesum, vardt han ganska glad; ty han hade i lång tid haft åstundan till att se honom; ty han hade mycket hört om honom, och hoppades få se något tecken göras af honom.
9 So he asked Jesus many questions, but Jesus did not reply [to any of them].
Och han frågade honom om mång stycker; men han svarade honom intet.
10 The chief priests and men who taught the [Jewish] laws stood near Jesus, accusing him very strongly.
Stodo ock öfverste Presterna, och de Skriftlärde, och klagade svårliga på honom.
11 Then Herod and his soldiers (made fun of/ridiculed) [Jesus]. They put gorgeous clothes on him [to mock him as being a king]. Then Herod sent him back to Pilate.
Men Herodes med sitt folk föraktade honom, och begabbade honom, och klädde honom uti ett hvitt kläde, och sände honom igen till Pilatum.
12 Until that time Herod and Pilate had been very hostile to each other, but that very day they became friends.
Och Pilatus och Herodes vordo vänner emellan sig på samma dag; ty emellan dem hade tillförene varit ovänskap.
13 Pilate then gathered together the chief priests and other [Jewish] leaders and the crowd [that was still there].
Då kallade Pilatus tillhopa de öfversta Presterna, och föreståndarena, och folket;
14 He said to them, “You brought this man to me, saying that he had caused trouble among the people. But [I want you to know that] after having examined him while you were listening, I do not conclude that he is guilty of any of the things that you are accusing him about.
Och sade till dem: I hafven fått mig denna mannen, såsom den der hafver förvändt folket; och si, jag hafver förhört honom i edor närvaro, och finner dock ingen af de ogerningar med denna mannen, der I anklagen honom före;
15 [Obviously] Herod did not [conclude that] either, because he sent him back to me [without punishing him]. [So it] is clear that this man has not done anything for which we [(inc)] should kill him.
Och ej heller Herodes; ty jag försände eder till honom; och si, man kunde intet komma på honom, det döden värdt var.
16 So I will [have my soldiers] flog him and then release him.”
Derföre vill jag näpsan och släppan.
Ty han skulle om högtidena gifva dem en lös.
18 But the whole crowd shouted, “Execute this man! Release Barrabas for us [(exc)]!”
Då ropade hele hopen, och sade: Tag denna af vägen, och gif oss Barabbam lös;
19 Barrabas was a man who had tried to persuade people in the city to rebel [against the Roman government. While doing that], he had murdered [someone]. So he had been put {they had put him} in prison, [where he was waiting to be executed].
Den der låg i fängelset, för ett upplopps skull, som i staden skedt var, och för ett mandråp.
20 Because Pilate wanted to release Jesus, he tried to persuade the crowd again.
Åter talade Pilatus till dem, och ville gifva Jesum lös.
21 But they kept shouting, “[Command your soldiers to] kill him by nailing him to a cross!/Have him crucified!”
Då ropade de, och sade: Korsfäst, korsfäst honom.
22 He [spoke to them] a third time and asked them, “Why? What crime has he committed? I have concluded that he has done nothing for which he deserves to die. So I will [have my soldiers] flog him and then release him.”
Då sade han tredje resona till dem: Hvad hafver han då illa gjort? Jag finner ingen dödssak med honom; derföre vill jag näpsan, och gifvan lös.
23 But they kept insisting. They shouted loudly that [Jesus] should be nailed {that [Pilate] should [have his soldiers] nail [Jesus]} to a cross. Finally, because they continued to shout [PRS] [so loudly],
Men de lade åt med stort rop, och begärade att han skulle korsfästas; och deras och de öfversta Presternas rop vardt ju mer och mer.
24 Pilate decided to do what the crowd requested.
Då dömde Pilatus, att så ske skulle, som de begärade;
25 The man who had been {whom they had} put in prison because he had rebelled [against the government] and who had murdered [someone], he released! That was the man whom the crowd had asked him [to release]. He handed Jesus over [to the soldiers], to do what [the crowd] wanted.
Och gaf dem lös den i fängelset satt var för upploppets och dråpets skull, den de begärat hade; men Jesum öfverantvardade han deras vilja.
26 As the soldiers were taking [Jesus] away, they seized a man named Simon, [who was] from Cyrene [city in Africa]. He was returning [to Jerusalem] from out in the countryside. They [took from Jesus the cross that he had been carrying. Then] they put it on Simon’s shoulders, and [told him to] carry it behind Jesus.
Och då de ledde honom ut, fingo de en fatt, som het Simon af Cyrene, den der kom af markene; honom lade de korset uppå, att han skulle bära det efter Jesum.
27 A large crowd followed Jesus. The crowd included many women who were beating their breasts [to show how sad they were], and wailing for him.
Men honom följde en stor hop folk, och qvinnor, de der greto och ömkade sig öfver honom.
28 But Jesus turned to them and said, “You women of Jerusalem, do not cry for me! Instead, cry because of [what is going to happen to] yourselves and your children!
Då vände sig Jesus om till dem, och sade: I Jerusalems döttrar, gråter icke öfver mig; utan gråter öfver eder sjelfva, och öfver edor barn.
29 I want you to know that there will soon be a time when people will say, ‘Women [SYN] who have never borne children or nursed babies are fortunate!’
Ty si, de dagar varda kommande, i hvilkom de skola säga: Saliga äro de ofruktsamma, och de qveder som intet födt hafva, och de spenar som ingom hade dia gifvit.
30 Then, [in order that they will not have to suffer greatly when their enemies destroy this city], people who are left in the city will say to the mountains, ‘Fall down on us!’ And people will say to the hills, ‘Cover us!’
Då skola de begynna säga till bergen: Faller öfver oss; och till högarna: Skyler oss.
31 [I am innocent] [MET]. [I am like] a living tree [that people do not try to burn. But the people of Jerusalem deserve that their enemies punish them. They are like] dry wood that is ready to [burn]. So if they [nail me to the cross], ([their enemies] will certainly do much worse things to them!/what worse things will happen to them?) [RHQ]”
Ty är detta skedt på det färska trät, hvad skall då ske på det torra?
32 Two other men who were criminals were also being led away {[The soldiers] also led away two other men who were criminals}. They were going to be executed {[The soldiers] were going to execute them} [with Jesus].
Leddes der ock ut två andre ogerningsmän med honom, till att aflifvas.
33 When they came to the place which is called ‘The Skull’, they nailed [Jesus] to a cross [after removing his clothes]. They did the same thing to the two criminals. They crucified one at the right [side of Jesus] and one at his left [side].
Och då de kommo till det rummet, som kallas hufvudskallaplatsen, der korsfäste de honom, och de ogerningsmän med honom; den ena på den högra sidon, den andra på den venstra.
34 Jesus prayed, “[My] Father, forgive them, because they do not realize [whom] they are doing [this to]!” Then [the soldiers] divided Jesus’ clothing by gambling with something like dice, [to decide which piece of clothing each one would get].
Och sade Jesus: Fader, förlåt dem det; ty de veta icke hvad de göra. Och de bytte hans kläder, kastandes lott på dem.
35 Many people stood nearby, watching. And the [Jewish] leaders (made fun of/ridiculed) [Jesus], saying, “He [said] [IRO] [that he] saved other people! If he is the Messiah, the one God has chosen, he should save himself!”
Och folket stod och såg uppå; och de öfverste, samt med dem, begabbade honom, sägande: Androm hafver han hulpit, hjelpe sig nu sjelfvom, om han är Christus, den Guds utkorade.
36 The soldiers also ridiculed him because he [claimed to be a king]. They came up to him and offered him some sour wine.
Begabbade honom ock krigsknektarna, och gingo till, och räckte ättiko till honom;
37 They said to him, “If you [(sg)] are the King of the Jews, save yourself!”
Sägande: Äst du Judarnas Konung, så hjelp dig sjelf.
38 [They] also [fastened on the cross] a sign [that stated] why [they] were nailing him to the cross. [But all it said was], ‘This is the King of the Jews’.
Var ock en öfverskrift skrifven öfver honom, med Grekiska, Latinska och Ebreiska bokstäfver: Denne är Judarnas Konung.
39 One of the criminals who was hanging [on a cross] began to insult Jesus, saying, “You [(sg) said that you] are the Messiah, so [you must be powerful]! So save yourself, and save us, too!”
Men en af de ogerningsmän, som upphängde voro, hädde honom, och sade: Äst du Christus, så hjelp dig sjelf och oss.
40 But the other [criminal] rebuked him, saying, “(You [(sg)] should be afraid of God [punishing you]!/Are you not afraid of God [punishing you]?) [RHQ] They are punishing him [and us] similarly.
Då svarade den andre, straffade honom, och sade: Fruktar du icke heller Gud, du som äst i samma fördömelsen?
41 They have justly decided that we [(inc) two] must die. They are punishing us as we deserve [for the evil things that we did]. But this man has done nothing wrong!”
Och är det väl rätt med oss; ty vi lide det våra gerningar värda äro; men denne hafver intet ondt gjort.
42 Then he said, “Jesus, [please] remember me [and take care of me] when you become king!”
Och sade han till Jesum: Herre, tänk på mig, då du kommer i ditt rike.
43 Jesus replied, “I want you [(sg)] to know that today you [(sg)] will be with me in the place where everyone is happy!” (OR, that today you will be with me in Paradise!)
Och sade Jesus till honom: Sannerliga säger jag dig, i dag skall du vara med mig i paradis.
44 [Then it] was about noontime. It became dark over the whole land, [and it stayed dark] until three o’clock in the afternoon.
Och var detta vid sjette timman; och ett mörker vardt öfver hela landet, allt intill nionde timman.
45 There was no light from the sun. Then the [thick] curtain [that closed off the most holy place] in the Temple split into two pieces. [That signified that ordinary people could now go into the presence of God].
Och solen miste sitt sken; och förlåten i templet remnade midt i tu.
46 [As that happened], Jesus shouted loudly, “Father, I put my spirit into your care [MTY]!” When he said that, he [EUP] died.
Och Jesus ropade med höga röst, och sade: Fader, jag befaller min anda i dina händer; och då han hade det sagt, gaf han upp andan.
47 When the officer [who supervised the soldiers who were executing Jesus] saw what happened, he praised God [for the way Jesus died], saying, “[I am] sure that this man had done nothing wrong!”
Då höfvitsmannen såg hvad der skedde, prisade han Gud, och sade: Sannerliga var denne en rättfärdig man.
48 When the crowd of people who had gathered to see those events saw what happened, they returned [to their homes], beating their chests [to show that they were sorrowful].
Och allt folket, som dit gånget var att se härpå, då de sett hade hvad der skedde, slogo de sig för sin bröst, och gingo hem igen.
49 All of Jesus’ friends, including the women who had come with him from Galilee [district], stood at a distance and saw everything that happened.
Men alle hans kände vänner, och qvinnor, som honom följt hade af Galileen, stodo långt ifrån, och sågo derpå.
50 There was a man named Joseph who [came there]. He was from the town of Arimathea in Judea. He was a good and a righteous man, and he was a member of the [Jewish] Council.
Och si, en man, benämnd Joseph, en rådherre, den var en god och rättfärdig man;
51 But he had not agreed with the other Council [members] when they decided [to kill Jesus] and when they [planned how to] do it. He was waiting expectantly for [the time when] God [would send] his king to begin to rule.
Och hade icke samtyckt deras råd och gerning; och han var bördig af den Judarnas stad Arimathia; den der ock åstundade efter Guds rike;
52 He went to Pilate and asked [Pilate to permit him] to [take] Jesus’ body [and bury it. After Pilate allowed him to do that],
Han gick till Pilatum, och beddes Jesu lekamen;
53 he [and some others] took [Jesus’ body] down [from the cross]. They wrapped it in a linen cloth. Then they put his body in a tomb that he had [hired others to] dig out of a rock [cliff]. No one had ever put a body in it before.
Och tog honom ned, svepte honom uti ett linkläde, och laden ned i ena graf, som uthuggen var uti sten, der än då ingen hade uti lagd varit.
54 [They had to do it quickly because] that was [Friday], the day when [people] prepared [things for the Jewish day of rest]. (The Sabbath/The day of rest) was about to start [at sunset, so they had to finish burying Jesus’ body before sunset].
Och det var tillredelsedagen, och Sabbathen begynte gå uppå.
55 The women who had come with [Jesus] from Galilee [district] followed [Joseph and the men who were with him]. They saw the tomb, and they saw how the men laid [Jesus’] body [inside it, and saw the men roll a huge stone across the entrance].
Och följde der några qvinnor efter, som med honom komna voro af Galileen och besågo grafvena, och huruledes hans lekamen lagd var;
56 Then the women returned to the houses [where they were staying. That evening] they prepared spices and ointments to put [on Jesus’ body], but (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) they rested, according to what [Moses] had commanded.
Och gingo sedan tillbaka igen, och tillredde välluktandes krydder och smörjelse; men om Sabbathen voro de stilla, som budet var i lagen.
