*
And those who passed by derided him ,
wagging their heads
*
and saying , "
You who would destroy the temple and build it in three days ,
save yourself !
If you are the Son of God ,
come down from the cross ."
*
So also the chief priests ,
with the scribes and elders ,
mocked him ,
saying ,
* "
He saved others ;
he cannot save himself .
He is the King of Israel ;
let him come down now from the cross ,
and we will believe in him .
*
He trusts in God ;
let God deliver him now ,
if he desires him ;
for he said , `
I am the Son of God .'"
*
And the robbers who were crucified with him also reviled him in the same way .
