Matthew 27:34
Verse 34 of 66. The 27th of 28 chapters in Matthew, in The Gospels.
30They spat on him, and took the reed and struck him on the head.
31When they had mocked him, they took the robe off him, and put his clothes on him, and led him away to crucify him.
32As they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name, and they compelled him to go with them, that he might carry his cross.
33When they came to a place called “Golgotha”, that is to say, “The place of a skull,”
34they gave him sour wine to drink mixed with gall. When he had tasted it, he would not drink.
35When they had crucified him, they divided his clothing among them, casting lots,
36and they sat and watched him there.
37They set up over his head the accusation against him written, “THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
38Then there were two robbers crucified with him, one on his right hand and one on the left.
