35 aThen they crucified Him, and divided His garments, casting lots,1 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet:
b“They divided My garments among them,
And for My clothing they cast lots.”
b“They divided My garments among them,
And for My clothing they cast lots.”
36 aSitting down, they kept watch over Him there.
37 And they aput up over His head the accusation written against Him: THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 aThen two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and another on the left.
39 And athose who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads
40 and saying, a“You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save Yourself! bIf You are the Son of God, come down from the cross.”
