New King James Version
16 (A)All your enemies have opened their mouth against you;
They hiss and gnash their teeth.
They say, (B)“We have swallowed her up!
Surely this is the (C)day we have waited for;
We have found it, (D)we have seen it!”
Psalm 22:6-8
New King James Version
6 But I am (A)a worm, and no man;
(B)A reproach of men, and despised by the people.
7 (C)All those who see Me ridicule Me;
They [a]shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,
8 “He(D) [b]trusted in the Lord, let Him rescue Him;
(E)Let Him deliver Him, since He delights in Him!”

Matthew 27:38-45
New King James Version
38 (A)Then two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and another on the left.
39 And (B)those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads 40 and saying, (C)“You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save Yourself! (D)If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross.”
41 Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the [a]scribes and elders, said, 42 “He (E)saved others; Himself He cannot save. [b]If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe [c]Him. 43 (F)He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ”
44 (G)Even the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing.
