Now as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. Him they compelled to bear His cross.
33
And when they had come to a place called Golgotha, that is to say, Place of a Skull,
34
they gave Him sour wine mingled with gall to drink. But when He had tasted it, He would not drink.
35
Then they crucified Him, and divided His garments, casting lots, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet: "They divided My garments among them, And for My clothing they cast lots."
36
Sitting down, they kept watch over Him there.
37
And they put up over His head the accusation written against Him: THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38
Then two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and another on the left.
39
And those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads
40
and saying, "You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross."
41
Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the scribes and elders, said,
42
"He saved others; Himself He cannot save. If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe Him.
