Rh 24 ¶ Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.

25 They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.

26 ¶ And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,

27 And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.

28 Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,

29 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.

30 He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.
