Matthew 27:35-37

EasyEnglish Bible

³⁵ Then the soldiers fixed Jesus onto the cross. They took his clothes for themselves. They played a game to find out who would receive each piece of his clothes. ³⁶ Then the soldiers sat down and they watched Jesus carefully. ³⁷ Above his head they fixed a notice. This showed the reason why they were killing him. It said, ‘This man is Jesus, the king of the Jews.’
