John 19:17-24
17Carrying the cross by himself, he went to the place called Place of the Skull (in Hebrew, Golgotha).
18There they nailed him to the cross. Two others were crucified with him, one on either side, with Jesus between them.
19And Pilate posted a sign on the cross that read, “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.”
20The place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and the sign was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek, so that many people could read it.
21Then the leading priests objected and said to Pilate, “Change it from ‘The King of the Jews’ to ‘He said, I am King of the Jews.’”
22Pilate replied, “No, what I have written, I have written.”
23When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they divided his clothes among the four of them. They also took his robe, but it was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom.
24So they said, “Rather than tearing it apart, let’s throw dice for it.” This fulfilled the Scripture that says, “They divided my garments among themselves and threw dice for my clothing.” So that is what they did.
