John 19:14-23

¹⁴(now it was the day of preparation for the Passover; the hour was about six a.m.), and he says to the Jews, “Look at your king!”

¹⁵But they shouted, “Out! Out! Crucify him!” Pilate says to them, “Shall I crucify your king?” The chief priests answered, “We have no king but Caesar!”

¹⁶So then he handed Him over to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and lead Him away.

¹⁷And carrying His cross He went out to the place called ‘Skull’, which in Hebrew is called ‘Golgotha’;

¹⁸there they crucified Him, and two others with Him, one on either side, with Jesus in the middle.

¹⁹Now Pilate had also written a notice, and put it on the cross; and the inscription was: JESUS THE NATSOREAN THE KING OF THE JEWS.

²⁰So many of the Jews read this notice, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; further, it was written in Hebrew, Greek and Latin!

²¹So the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Don't write, ‘The king of the Jews’, but that the fellow said, ‘I am the king of the Jews.’ ”

²²Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written!”

²³Now when the soldiers had crucified Jesus they took His clothes and made four parts, a part for each soldier. They also took His tunic, but the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece from the top.
