John 19:17
Compare all
15 But they cried out, “Away with Him, away with Him! Crucify Him!” Pilate said to them, “Shall I crucify your King?” The chief priests answered, a“We have no king but Caesar!”  
16 aThen he delivered Him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led Him away.  

The King on a Cross

17 aAnd He, bearing His cross, bwent out to a place called the Place of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha,  
18 where they crucified Him, and atwo others with Him, one on either side, and Jesus in the center.  
19 aNow Pilate wrote a title and put it on the cross. And the writing was: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.  
20 Then many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin.
21 Therefore the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but, ‘He said, “I am the King of the Jews.” ’ ”
22 Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”
23 aThen the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took His garments and made four parts, to each soldier a part, and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top in one piece.  
24 They said therefore among themselves, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be,” that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says:
a“They divided My garments among them,
And for My clothing they cast lots.” Therefore the soldiers did these things.  

Behold Your Mother

25 aNow there stood by the cross of Jesus His mother, and His mother’s sister, Mary the wife of bClopas, and Mary Magdalene.
