Lukas 23,39

37 og sa: «Hvis du er jødenes konge, frels deg selv.»

38 Over ham var det en innskrift: DETTE ER JØDENES KONGE.

En av forbryterne som hang der, hånte ham: «Er ikke du Messias? Frels deg selv og oss!»

40 Men den andre forbryteren irettesatte ham. «Frykter du ikke Gud,» sa han, «siden du er under samme dom?

41 Vi straffes rettferdig, for vi får det vi fortjener for det vi har gjort. Men denne mannen har ikke gjort noe galt.»

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
