Luke 23:27-39

²⁷And a great band of people went after him, and of women making signs of grief and weeping for him.

²⁸But Jesus, turning to them, said, Daughters of Jerusalem, let not your weeping be for me, but for yourselves and for your children.

²⁹For the days are coming in which they will say, Happy are those who have had no children, whose bodies have never given birth, whose breasts have never given milk.

³⁰And they will say to the mountains, Come down on us, and to the hills, Be a cover over us.

³¹For if they do these things when the tree is green, what will they do when it is dry?

³²And two others, evil-doers, were taken with him to be put to death.

³³And when they came to the place which is named Golgotha, they put him on the cross, and the evil-doers, one on the right side, and the other on the left.

³⁴And Jesus said, Father, let them have forgiveness, for they have no knowledge of what they are doing. And they made division of his clothing among them by the decision of chance.

³⁵And the people were looking on. And the rulers made sport of him, saying, He was a saviour of others; let him do something for himself, if he is the Christ, the man of God's selection.

³⁶And the men of the army made sport of him, coming to him and giving him bitter wine,

³⁷And saying, If you are the King of the Jews, get yourself free.

³⁸And these words were put in writing over him, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

³⁹And one of the evil-doers on the cross, with bitter feeling, said to him, Are you not the Christ? Get yourself and us out of this.
