Position de l’organisation ou explication ultérieure : L’organisation note que les plus anciens manuscrits grecs ne comportent pas de ponctuation et que « la grammaire du texte grec permet de placer une virgule (ou deux-points) soit avant, soit après le mot “today” ». Elle reconnaît que Westcott et Hort, Nestle–Aland et les Sociétés bibliques unies placent tous la virgule avant “today”, et dit que l’autre placement « s’harmonise avec des déclarations que Jésus avait faites auparavant et avec des enseignements que l’on trouve ailleurs dans les Écritures ».

New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition), “Luke 23:43”

2013 · Luke 23:43 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“And he said to him: “Truly I tell you today, you will be with me in Paradise.””

The 2013 revision keeps the 1984 punctuation but lowercases the pronoun: ‘today, you will be’ where the 1984 Reference Bible had ‘today, You will be’.

New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures—With References, “Luke 23:43”

1984 · Luke 23:43 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“And he said to him: “Truly I tell you today, You will be with me in Paradise.””

The comma is placed after ‘today’ rather than before it, so that ‘today’ attaches to the act of speaking rather than to the promise.

Bible Hub parallel translations, “Luke 23:43 in the parallel English versions”

19 septembre 2026 · Bible Hub (reproducing the named copyright translations)

“New International Version “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.” English Standard Version “Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in paradise.” King James Bible “Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.” Lamsa Bible “Truly I say to you today, you will be with me in Paradise.””

Of the major English versions on the page, none punctuates the verse as the New World Translation does. One version on the same page does: George Lamsa's translation from the Syriac Peshitta places the comma after ‘today’, as the New World Translation does.

Note de provenance et de vérification for Bible Hub parallel translations, Luke 23:43 in the parallel English versions

Note sur la fiabilité. Page opened on 19 September 2026 and all 42 renderings on it read, on Bible Hub's reproduction rather than in the printed editions. Independent audit, 19 September 2026: the earlier wording of this record claimed that ‘all seventeen versions on the page’ place the comma before ‘today’. The page carries 42 versions, and the Lamsa Bible places it after ‘today’. Corrected.

Notes. This quote field compiles renderings quoted separately from one Bible Hub parallel page; it is not a continuous passage. Each rendering was checked word for word against the page.

The Kingdom Interlinear Translation of the Greek Scriptures, “Luke 23:43 (word-for-word English under the Greek)”

1985 · Luke 23:43 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“43 καὶ And εἶπεν he said αὐτῷ to him Ἀμήν Amen σοι to you λέγω, I am saying σήμερον today μετ’ with ἐμοῦ me ἔσῃ you will be ἐν in τῷ the παραδείσῳ. Paradise.”

The printed Greek text carries a comma after λέγω and before σήμερον — that is, the punctuation of the Westcott and Hort text the Society reproduces places 'today' with the promise, not with the speaking.

New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition), “Study note on Luke 23:43, 'Truly I tell you today,'”

2013 · study note, Luke 23:43 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“In this verse, the grammar of the Greek text allows for placing a comma (or a colon) either before or after the word “today.” … Scholarly editions of the Greek text like the ones prepared by Westcott and Hort, Nestle and Aland, and the United Bible Societies put a comma before the Greek word rendered “today.” However, placing the comma after “today” harmonizes with earlier statements that Jesus made and with teachings found elsewhere in the Scriptures.”

A candid statement of the organisation's method at this verse: the grammar permits either, the standard critical editions choose one, and the organisation chooses the other because of what it holds the Bible to teach elsewhere. The note also cites the fifth-century Curetonian Syriac and Hesychius of Jerusalem as early witnesses to the alternative punctuation.
