King James 2000

Matthew 27:35-44 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

35. And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet,

36. And sitting down they watched him there;

37. And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

38. Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.

39. And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,

40. And saying, You that destroy the temple, and build it in three days, save yourself. If you be the Son of God, come down from the cross.

41. Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, saying,

42. He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.

43. He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.

44. The thieves also, who were crucified with him, reviled him the same way.
