d they gave Him sour wine mingled with gall to drink. But when He had tasted it, He would not drink.

f "They divided My garments among them,
And for My clothing they cast lots."

Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the scribes and elders, said,
42
"He m saved others; Himself He cannot save. If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe Him.
43
n "He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, 'I am the Son of God.' "
44
o Even the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing.
