Matthew 27:37-45
New American Standard Bible
37 And above His head they put up the charge against Him [a]which read, “(A)THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
38 At that time two [b]rebels *were being crucified with Him, one on the right and one on the left. 39 And those passing by were [c]speaking abusively to Him, (B)shaking their heads, 40 and saying, “(C)You who are going to destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save Yourself! (D)If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross.” 41 In the same way the chief priests also, along with the scribes and elders, were mocking Him and saying, 42 “(E)He saved others; [d]He cannot save Himself! (F)He is the King of Israel; let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe in Him. 43 (G)He has trusted in God; let God rescue Him now, if He [e]takes pleasure in Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’” 44 (H)And the [f]rebels who had been crucified with Him were also insulting Him in the same way.
45 (I)Now from the [g]sixth hour darkness [h]fell upon all the land until the [i]ninth hour.

New International Version
37 Above his head they placed the written charge against him: this is jesus, the king of the jews.
38 Two rebels were crucified with him,(A) one on his right and one on his left. 39 Those who passed by hurled insults at him, shaking their heads(B) 40 and saying, “You who are going to destroy the temple and build it in three days,(C) save yourself!(D) Come down from the cross, if you are the Son of God!”(E) 41 In the same way the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders mocked him. 42 “He saved others,” they said, “but he can’t save himself! He’s the king of Israel!(F) Let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe(G) in him. 43 He trusts in God. Let God rescue him(H) now if he wants him, for he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’” 44 In the same way the rebels who were crucified with him also heaped insults on him.
