39And those who went by said bitter words to him, shaking their heads and saying,
40You who would give the Temple to destruction and put it up again in three days, get yourself free: if you are the Son of God, come down from the cross.
41In the same way, the chief priests, making sport of him, with the scribes and those in authority, said,
42A saviour of others, he has no salvation for himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will have faith in him.
43He put his faith in God; let God be his saviour now, if he will have him; for he said, I am the Son of God.
44And the thieves who were on the crosses said evil words to him.
45Now from the sixth hour it was dark over all the land till the ninth hour.
