Because of the Lord who is faithful,

And He has chosen You.”

[b]If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe [c]Him. 43 (F)He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ”
44 (G)Even the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing.
