Revised Version 1895

Matthew 27:29-43

29And they plaited a crown of thorns and put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand; and they kneeled down before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!

30And they spat upon him, and took the reed and smote him on the head.

31And when they had mocked him, they took off from him the robe, and put on him his garments, and led him away to crucify him.

32And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to go with them, that he might bear his cross.

33And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, The place of a skull,

34they gave him wine to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted it, he would not drink.

35And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments among them, casting lots:

36and they sat and watched him there.

37And they set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

38Then are there crucified with him two robbers, one on the right hand, and one on the left.

39And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads,

40and saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself: if thou art the Son of God, come down from the cross.

41In like manner also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,

42He saved others; himself he cannot save. He is the King of Israel; let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe on him.

43He trusteth on God; let him deliver him now, if he desireth him: for he said, I am the Son of God.
