* Then the soldiers of the governor took (5631 ) Jesus into the common hall , and gathered (5627 ) unto him the whole band of soldiers . * And they stripped (5660 ) him , and put on (5656 ) him a scarlet robe . * And when they had platted (5660 ) a crown of thorns , they put (5656 ) it upon his head , and a reed in his right hand : and they bowed the knee (5660 ) before him , and mocked (5707 ) him , saying (5723 ), Hail (5720 ), King of the Jews ! * And they spit (5660 ) upon him , and took (5627 ) the reed , and smote (5707 ) him on the head . * And after that they had mocked (5656 ) him , they took the robe off (5656 ) from him , and put his own raiment on (5656 ) him , and led him away (5627 ) to crucify (5658 ) him . * And as they came out (5740 ), they found (5627 ) a man of Cyrene , Simon by name : him they compelled (5656 ) to bear (5661 ) his cross . * And when they were come (5631 ) unto a place called (5746 ) Golgotha , that is (5748 ) to say (5746 ), a place of a skull , * They gave (5656 ) him vinegar to drink (5629 ) mingled (5772 ) with gall : and when he had tasted (5666 ) thereof , he would (5707 ) not drink (5629 ). * And they crucified (5660 ) him , and parted (5668 ) his garments , casting (5723 ) lots : that it might be fulfilled (5686 ) which was spoken (5685 ) by the prophet , They parted (5668 ) my garments among them , and upon my vesture did they cast (5627 ) lots . * And sitting down (5740 ) they watched (5707 ) him there ; * And set up (5656 ) over his head his accusation written (5772 ), THIS IS (5748 ) JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS . * Then were there two thieves crucified (5743 ) with him , one on the right hand , and another on the left . * And they that passed by (5740 ) reviled (5707 ) him , wagging (5723 ) their heads , * And saying (5723 ), Thou that destroyest (5723 ) the temple , and buildest (5723 ) it in three days , save (5657 ) thyself . If thou be (5748 ) the Son of God , come down (5628 ) from the cross . * Likewise also the chief priests mocking (5723 ) him , with the scribes and elders , said (5707 ), * He saved (5656 ) others ; himself he cannot (5736 ) save (5658 ). If he be (5748 ) the King of Israel , let him now come down (5628 ) from the cross , and we will believe (5692 ) him . * He trusted (5754 ) in God ; let him deliver (5663 ) him now , if he will have (5719 ) him : for he said (5627 ), I am (5748 ) the Son of God . * The thieves also , which were crucified (5685 ) with him , cast the same in his teeth (5707 ).
