John 19:16-22

¹⁶Then, therefore, he delivered him up to them, that he may be crucified, and they took Jesus and led him away,

¹⁷and bearing his cross, he went forth to the place called Place of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew Golgotha;

¹⁸where they crucified him, and with him two others, on this side, and on that side, and Jesus in the midst.

¹⁹And Pilate also wrote a title, and put it on the cross, and it was written, 'Jesus the Nazarene, the king of the Jews;'

²⁰this title, therefore, read many of the Jews, because the place was nigh to the city where Jesus was crucified, and it was having been written in Hebrew, in Greek, in Roman.

²¹The chief priests of the Jews said, therefore, to Pilate, 'Write not — The king of the Jews, but that one said, I am king of the Jews;'

²²Pilate answered, 'What I have written, I have written.'
