38 Two robbers were crucified beside Jesus, one on the right and the other on the left.
39 People walked by and insulted Jesus and shook their heads,
40 saying, “You said you could destroy the Temple and build it again in three days. So save yourself! Come down from that cross if you are really the Son of God!”
41 The leading priests, the teachers of the law, and the Jewish elders were also making fun of Jesus.
42 They said, “He saved others, but he can’t save himself! He says he is the king of Israel! If he is the king, let him come down now from the cross. Then we will believe in him.
43 He trusts in God, so let God save him now, if God really wants him. He himself said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ”
44 And in the same way, the robbers who were being crucified beside Jesus also insulted him.
