^38 (A)And an inscription also was ^[a]written over Him in letters of Greek, Latin, and Hebrew:

THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

²⁶ And ^(A)the inscription of His ^[a]accusation was written above:

THE KING OF THE JEWS.

³⁷ And they ^(A)put up over His head the accusation written against Him:

THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

^19 (A)Now 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.”

^3 (A)Then Pilate asked Him, saying, “Are You the King of the Jews?”

He answered him and said, “It is as you say.”

³² Let the Christ, the King of Israel, descend now from the cross, that we may see and ^[a]believe.”

Even ^(A)those who were crucified with Him reviled Him.

^3 [a]Then they said, “Hail, King of the Jews!” And they ^(A)struck Him with their hands.

¹⁸ and began to salute Him, “Hail, King of the Jews!”

Jesus Faces Pilate^(A)

¹¹ Now Jesus stood before the governor. ^(B)And the governor asked Him, saying, “Are You the King of the Jews?”

Jesus said to him, ^(C)“It is as you say.”
