Matthew 27:39-44
New King James Version
39 And (A)those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads 40 and saying, (B)“You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save Yourself! (C)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 (D)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 (E)He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ”
44 (F)Even the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing.
