22 (A)And they brought him to the place called Golgotha (which means Place of a Skull).

33 (A)And when they came to a place called Golgotha (which means Place of a Skull), 34 (B)they offered him wine to drink, mixed with (C)gall, but when he tasted it, he would not drink it. 35 And when they had crucified him, (D)they divided his garments among them by casting lots. 36 Then they sat down and (E)kept watch over him there. 37 And over his head they put the charge against him, which read, “This is Jesus, (F)the King of the Jews.” 38 Then two (G)robbers were crucified with him, (H)one on the right and one on the left. 39 And (I)those who passed by (J)derided him, (K)wagging their heads 40 and saying, (L)“You who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save yourself! (M)If you are (N)the Son of God, come down from the cross.” 41 So also the chief priests, with the scribes and elders, mocked him, saying, 42 (O)“He saved others; (P)he cannot save himself. (Q)He is the King of Israel; let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in him. 43 (R)He trusts in God; let God deliver him now, if he desires him. For he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’” 44 (S)And the robbers who were crucified with him also reviled him in the same way.

17 and (A)he went out, (B)bearing his own cross, to the place called The Place of a Skull, which in Aramaic is called Golgotha. 18 (C)There they crucified him, and with him two others, one on either side, and Jesus between them. 19 Pilate (D)also wrote an inscription and put it on the cross. It read, “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.” 20 Many of the Jews read this inscription, for (E)the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Aramaic, in Latin, and in Greek. 21 So the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but rather, ‘This man said, I am King of the Jews.’” 22 Pilate answered, (F)“What I have written I have written.”

23 (G)When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his garments and divided them into four parts, one part for each soldier; also his tunic.[a] But the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom, 24 so they said to one another, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to see whose it shall be.” (H)This was to fulfill the Scripture which says,

(I)“They divided my garments among them,
    and for my clothing they cast lots.”

So the soldiers did these things, 25 (J)but standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Jesus saw his mother and (K)the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to his mother, (L)“Woman, behold, your son!” 27 Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” And from that hour the disciple took her to (M)his own home.

27 And there followed him a great multitude of the people and of women who were (A)mourning and lamenting for him. 28 But turning to them Jesus said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children. 29 For behold, (B)the days are coming when they will say, (C)‘Blessed are the barren and the wombs that never bore and the breasts that never nursed!’ 30 (D)Then they will begin to say to the mountains, ‘Fall on us,’ and to the hills, ‘Cover us.’ 31 For (E)if they do these things when (F)the wood is green, what will happen (G)when it is dry?”

32 (H)Two others, who were criminals, were led away to be put to death with him. 33 (I)And when they came to the place that is called The Skull, there they crucified him, and the criminals, (J)one on his right and one on his left. 34 And Jesus said, “Father, (K)forgive them, (L)for they know not what they do.”[a] And they cast lots (M)to divide his garments. 35 And (N)the people stood by, watching, (O)but (P)the rulers (Q)scoffed at him, saying, (R)“He saved others; (S)let him save himself, (T)if he is (U)the Christ of God, (V)his Chosen One!” 36 The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and (W)offering him sour wine 37 and saying, (X)“If you are (Y)the King of the Jews, save yourself!” 38 (Z)There was also an inscription over him,[b] “This is (AA)the King of the Jews.”
