Then the Governor '
s soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium ,
and called together the whole battalion to make sport of Him .
*
Stripping off His garments ,
they put on Him a general '
s short crimson cloak .
*
They twisted a wreath of thorny twigs and put it on His head ,
and they put a sceptre of cane in His right hand ,
and kneeling to Him they shouted in mockery , »
Long live the King of the Jews !«
*
Then they spat upon Him ,
and taking the cane they repeatedly struck Him on the head with it .
*
At last ,
having finished their sport ,
they took off the cloak ,
clothed Him again in His own garments ,
and led Him away for crucifixion .
