Above his head they fixed the accusation against him written out--'THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.' At the same time two robbers were crucified with him, one on the right, the other on the left. The passers-by railed at him, shaking their heads as they said: "You who 'destroy the Temple and build one in three days,' save yourself! If you are God's Son, come down from the cross!" In the same way the Chief Priests, with the Teaches of the Law and Councillors, said in mockery: "He saved others, but he cannot save himself! He is the 'King of Israel'! Let him come down from the cross now, and we will believe in him. He has trusted in God; if God wants him, let him deliver him now; for he said 'I am God's Son.'" Even the robbers, who were crucified with him, reviled him in the same way. After mid-day a darkness came over all the country, lasting till three in the afternoon.

One of them immediately ran and took a sponge, and, filling it with common wine, put it on the end of a rod, and offered it to him to drink. But the rest said: "Wait and let us see if Elijah is coming to save him."

There was a great crowd of people following him, many being women who were beating their breasts and wailing for him. So Jesus turned and said to them: "Women of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children. A time, I tell you, is coming, when it will be said--'Happy are the women who are barren, and those who have never borne children or nursed them!' read more.
At that time people will begin to say to the mountains 'Fall on us,' and to the hills 'Cover us.' If what you see is done while the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?" There were two others also, criminals, led out to be executed with Jesus. When they had reached the place called 'The Skull,' there they crucified Jesus and the criminals, one on the right, and one on the left. [Then Jesus said: "Father, forgive them; they do not know what they are doing."] His clothes they divided among them by casting lots. Meanwhile the people stood looking on.

Then Jesus, with a loud cry, said: "Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit." And with these words he expired.

All the people who had collected to see the sight watched what occurred, and then went home beating their breasts. All the friends of Jesus had been standing at a distance, with the women who accompanied him from Galilee, watching all this.

Whereupon Pilate gave Jesus up to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus; And he went out, carrying his cross himself, to the place which is named from a scull, or, in Hebrew, Golgotha. There they crucified him, and two others with him--one on each side, and Jesus between them. read more.
Pilate also had these words written and put up over the cross--'JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.' These words were read by many of the Jews, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and they were written in Hebrew, Latin and Greek. The Jewish Chief Priests said to Pilate: "Do not write 'The King of the Jews', but write what the man said--'I am the King of the Jews.'" But Pilate answered: "What I have written, I have written." When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his clothes and divided them into four shares--a share for each soldier--and they took the coat also. The coat had no seam, being woven in one piece from top to bottom. So they said to one another: "Do not let us tear it, but let us cast lots for it, to see who shall have it." This was in fulfillment of the words of Scripture--'They shared my clothes among them, And over my clothing they cast lots.' That was what the soldiers did. Meanwhile near the cross of Jesus were standing his mother and his mother's sister, as well as Mary the wife of Clopas and Mary of Magdala. When Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved, standing near, he said to his mother: "There is your son." Then he said to that disciple: "There is your mother." And from that very hour the disciple took her to live in his house. Afterwards, knowing that everything was now finished, Jesus said, in fulfillment of the words of Scripture: "I am thirsty." There was a bowl standing there full of common wine; so they put a sponge soaked in the wine on the end of a hyssop-stalk, and held it up to his mouth. When Jesus had received the wine, he exclaimed: "All is finished!" Then, bowing his head, he resigned his spirit to God.
