39 But those passing by blasphemed him, shaking their heads,
40 and saying: 'Ah, so you would destroy the temple of God and in three days rebuild it! Save your own self. If you are the Son of God, descend from the cross.'
41 And similarly, the leaders of the priests, with the scribes and the elders, mocking him, said:
42 'He saved others; he cannot save himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him descend now from the cross, and we will believe in him.
43 He trusted in God; so now, let God free him, if he wills him. For he said, 'I am the Son of God.'
