John 19:15-22

AUV(i) 15 Then they shouted out, “Take him away; take him away and crucify him!” Pilate replied to them, “Do you want me to crucify your king?” The leading priests answered, “We do not have any [other] king, except Caesar.” 16 Finally, Pilate turned Jesus over to them to be crucified. 17 So, they took Jesus [away] and He went out [of the city] carrying the cross by Himself to a place called “The Place of the Skull,” [also] called “Golgotha” in the Hebrew language [and “Calvary” in Latin]. 18 There they crucified Him, along with two other men, one on each side with Jesus in the middle. 19 Then Pilate had an inscription written and placed on the cross [i.e., on the upright portion, above His head]. It read, “Jesus from Nazareth, the King of the Jews.” 20 Many of the Jews read this notice, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city [of Jerusalem]. It was written in the Hebrew, Latin and Greek languages. 21 But the Jewish leading priests said to Pilate, “Do not write ‘The King of the Jews,’ but ‘He said, I am the King of the Jews.’” 22 Pilate replied, “What I have written I have written.” [i.e., “I am not going to change it.”]
