John 19:19-22

19 Pilate also wrote an inscription and put it on the cross. It was written, "1JESUS THE NAZARENE, 2THE KING OF THE JEWS."
20 Therefore many of the Jews read this inscription, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written 3in Hebrew, Latin and in Greek.
21 So the chief priests of the Jews were saying to Pilate, "Do not write, '4The King of the Jews '; but that He said, 'I am 5King of the Jews.' "
22 Pilate answered, "6What I have written I have written."
