35
And when they had crucified him, they divided his garments among them by casting lots;
36
then they sat down and kept watch over him there.
37
And over his head they put the charge against him, which read, "This is Jesus the King of the Jews."
38
Then two robbers were crucified with him, one on the right and one on the left.
39
And those who passed by derided him, wagging their heads
40
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."
41
So also the chief priests, with the scribes and elders, mocked him, saying,
42
"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.
43
He trusts in God; let God deliver him now, if he desires him; for he said, 'I am the Son of God.'"
44
And the robbers who were crucified with him also reviled him in the same way.
45
Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.
