The Soldiers Mock Jesus(A)

They put a staff in his right hand. Then they knelt in front of him and mocked him. “Hail, king of the Jews!” they said.(D) 30 They spit on him, and took the staff and struck him on the head again and again.(E) 31 After they had mocked him, they took off the robe and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him away to crucify him.(F)

31 For if people do these things when the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”(H)
32 Two other men, both criminals, were also led out with him to be executed.(I)
