The Penitent Thief

Saint Luke - Chapter 23

This day thou shalt be with me in paradise. J-J Tissot

[39] Unus autem de his, qui pendebant, latronibus, blasphemabat eum, dicens : Si tu es Christus, salvum fac temetipsum et nos.
And one of those robbers who were hanged, blasphemed him, saying: If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.

[40] Respondens autem alter increpabat eum, dicens : Neque tu times Deum, quod in eadem damnatione es.
But the other answering, rebuked him, saying: Neither dost thou fear God, seeing thou art condemned under the same condemnation?

[41] Et nos quidem juste, nam digna factis recipimus : hic vero nihil mali gessit.
And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this man hath done no evil.

[42] Et dicebat ad Jesum : Domine, memento mei cum veneris in regnum tuum.
And he said to Jesus: Lord, remember me when thou shalt come into thy kingdom.

[43] Et dixit illi Jesus : Amen dico tibi : Hodie mecum eris in paradiso.
And Jesus said to him: Amen I say to thee, this day thou shalt be with me in paradise.

Totus tuus ego sum 

Et omnia mea tua sunt;

Tecum semper tutus sum:
Ad Jesum per Mariam
