Mar 15:16 And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and they call together the whole band. Mar 15:17 And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head, Mar 15:18 And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews! Mar 15:19 And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him. Mar 15:20 And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him. Mar 15:21 And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross. Mar 15:22 And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull. Mar 15:23 And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not. Mar 15:24 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take. Mar 15:25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him. |
