The Crucifixion

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.

34

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

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 Messiah of God, his chosen one!”

36

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

37

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

38

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

39

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

40

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

41

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

42

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

43

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