As they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name, and they compelled him to go with them, that he might carry his cross.
33
They came to a place called "Golgotha," that is to say, "The place of a skull."
34
They gave him sour wine to drink mixed with gall. When he had tasted it, he would not drink.
35
When they had crucified him, they divided his clothing among them, casting lots,
36
and they sat and watched him there.
37
They set up over his head his accusation written, "THIS IS JESUS, 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 him 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.
