Matthew 27:28-30
They stripped off his clothing
and placed a scarlet robe on him
to make fun of him.
Then they braided a crown of thorns
and set it on his head.
After placing a reed staff
in his right hand,
they knelt down before him
and irreverently mocked him,
saying, “Hail, king of the Jews!”
Then they spat in his face
and took the reed staff
from his hand
and hit him repeatedly on his head,
driving the crown of thorns
deep into his brow.
