35 And (A)the people stood by, watching, (B)but (C)the rulers (D)scoffed at him, saying, (E)“He saved others; (F)let him save himself, (G)if he is (H)the Christ of God, (I)his Chosen One!” 36 The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and (J)offering him sour wine 37 and saying, (K)“If you are (L)the King of the Jews, save yourself!” 38 (M)There was also an inscription over him,[a] “This is (N)the King of the Jews.”

39 (O)One of the criminals who were hanged (P)railed at him,[b] saying, “Are you not (Q)the Christ? Save yourself and us!” 40 But the other rebuked him, saying, “Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? 41 And we indeed justly, for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.” 42 And he said, “Jesus, remember me (R)when you come into your kingdom.” 43 And he said to him, “Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in (S)paradise.”
