32 And as they went out, they found a man of Cyrene coming from the town, Simon by name; they constrained him to take his cross.

33 And they came into a place [And they came to a place] that is called Golgotha, that is, the place of Calvary.

34 And they gave him to drink wine mingled with gall; and when he had tasted, he would not drink.

35 And after that they had crucified him, they parted his clothes, and cast lots, to fulfill that is said by the prophet, saying, They parted to them my clothes, and on my cloak they cast lots. [Soothly after that they had crucified him, they parted his clothes, sending lot, that it should be fulfilled, that is said by the prophet, saying, They parted to them my clothes, and upon my cloth they sent lot.]

36 And they sat, and kept him; [And they sitting kept him;]

37 and set above his head his cause written, This is Jesus of Nazareth, king of Jews [This is Jesus, the king of Jews].

38 Then two thieves were crucified with him, one on the right half, and one on the left half [one on the right half, and another on the left half].

39 And men that passed forth blasphemed him, moving their heads,

40 and saying, Vath to thee [Fie to thee], that destroyest the temple of God, and in the third day buildest it again [and in the third day again buildest it]; save thou thyself; if thou art the Son of God, come down of the cross.

41 Also and [the] princes of priests scorning, with scribes and elder men, said,

42 He made other men safe, he may not make himself safe; if he is [the] king of Israel, come he now down from the cross, and we believe to him;

43 he trusted in God; deliver he him now, if he will; for he said, That I am God's Son [for he said, I am the Son of God].

44 And the thieves, that were crucified with him, upbraided him of the same thing.[a]
