36. and they sat and watched him there.
37. They set up over his head the accusation against him written, “THIS IS YESHUA, THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
38. Then there were two robbers crucified with him, one on his right hand and one on the left.
39. 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, the Pharisees, and the elders, said,
42. “He saved others, but he can’t save himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him come down from the cross now, and we will believe in him.
43. He trusts in God. Let God deliver him now, if he wants him; for he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”
44. The robbers also who were crucified with him cast on him the same reproach.
45. Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.
