The Soldiers Mock Jesus
27 aThen the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the1 Praetorium and gathered the whole garrison around Him.
28 And they astripped Him and bput a scarlet robe on Him.
29 aWhen they had1 twisted a crown of thorns, they put it on His head, and a reed in His right hand. And they bowed the knee before Him and mocked Him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
30 Then athey spat on Him, and took the reed and struck Him on the head.
31 And when they had mocked Him, they took the robe off Him, put His own clothes on Him, aand led Him away to be crucified.
The King on a Cross
32 aNow as they came out, bthey found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. Him they compelled to bear His cross.
