God the Refuge of His People and Conqueror of the Nations

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A Song (A)for Alamoth.

46 God is our (B)refuge and strength,
(C)A[a] very present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear,
Even though the earth be removed,
And though the mountains be carried into the [b]midst of the sea;
(D)Though its waters roar and be troubled,
Though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah

There is a (E)river whose streams shall make glad the (F)city of God,
The holy place of the [c]tabernacle of the Most High.
God is (G)in the midst of her, she shall not be [d]moved;
God shall help her, just [e]at the break of dawn.
(H)The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved;
He uttered His voice, the earth melted.

The (I)Lord of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah

Come, behold the works of the Lord,
Who has made desolations in the earth.
(J)He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;
(K)He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two;
(L)He burns the chariot in the fire.

10 Be still, and know that I am God;
(M)I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth!

11 The Lord of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah

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.” 12 And while He was being accused by the chief priests and elders, (D)He answered nothing.

13 Then Pilate said to Him, (E)“Do You not hear how many things they testify against You?” 14 But He answered him not one word, so that the governor marveled greatly.

Taking the Place of Barabbas(F)

15 (G)Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to releasing to the multitude one prisoner whom they wished. 16 And at that time they had a notorious prisoner called [a]Barabbas. 17 Therefore, when they had gathered together, Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?” 18 For he knew that they had handed Him over because of (H)envy.

19 While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, “Have nothing to do with that just Man, for I have suffered many things today in a dream because of Him.”

20 (I)But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitudes that they should ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus. 21 The governor answered and said to them, “Which of the two do you want me to release to you?”

They said, (J)“Barabbas!”

22 Pilate said to them, “What then shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?”

They all said to him, “Let Him be crucified!”

23 Then the governor said, (K)“Why, what evil has He done?”

But they cried out all the more, saying, “Let Him be crucified!”

24 When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but rather that a [b]tumult was rising, he (L)took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, “I am innocent of the blood of this [c]just Person. You see to it.

25 And all the people answered and said, (M)“His blood be on us and on our children.”

26 Then he released Barabbas to them; and when (N)he had [d]scourged Jesus, he delivered Him to be crucified.

The Soldiers Mock Jesus(O)

27 (P)Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the [e]Praetorium and gathered the whole [f]garrison around Him. 28 And they (Q)stripped Him and (R)put a scarlet robe on Him. 29 (S)When they had [g]twisted a crown of thorns, they put it on His head, and a reed in His right hand. And they bowed the knee before Him and mocked Him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” 30 Then (T)they spat on Him, and took the reed and struck Him on the head. 31 And when they had mocked Him, they took the robe off Him, put His own clothes on Him, (U)and led Him away to be crucified.

The King on a Cross(V)

32 (W)Now as they came out, (X)they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. Him they compelled to bear His cross. 33 (Y)And when they had come to a place called Golgotha, that is to say, Place of a Skull, 34 (Z)they gave Him [h]sour wine mingled with gall to drink. But when He had tasted it, He would not drink.

35 (AA)Then they crucified Him, and divided His garments, casting lots, [i]that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet:

(AB)“They divided My garments among them,
And for My clothing they cast lots.”

36 (AC)Sitting down, they kept watch over Him there. 37 And they (AD)put up over His head the accusation written against Him:

THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

38 (AE)Then two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and another on the left.

39 And (AF)those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads 40 and saying, (AG)“You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save Yourself! (AH)If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross.”

41 Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the [j]scribes and elders, said, 42 “He (AI)saved others; Himself He cannot save. [k]If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe [l]Him. 43 (AJ)He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ”

44 (AK)Even the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing.
