John 19:15-21
J.B. Phillips New Testament
15a At which they yelled, “Take him away, take him away, crucify him!”
15b Am I to crucify your king? Pilate asked them. “Caesar is our king and no one else,” replied the chief priests.
16a And at this Pilate handed Jesus over to them for crucifixion.
The crucifixion
16b-21 So they took Jesus and he went out carrying the cross himself, to a place called Skull Hill (in Hebrew, Golgotha). There they crucified him, and two others, one on either side of him with Jesus in the middle. Pilate had a placard written out and put on the cross, reading, JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS. This placard was read by many of the Jews because the place where Jesus was crucified was quite near Jerusalem, and it was written in Hebrew as well as in Latin and Greek. So the chief priests said to Pilate, “You should not write ‘The King of the Jews’, but ‘This man said, I am King of the Jews.’”
