"But those passing by blasphemed him, shaking their heads, "
— Matthew 27:39, Catholic Public Domain Version
“And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,”
“And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, ”
“Those who passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads,”
“Those who passed by defamed him, shaking their heads”
“And they that passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads,”
“And those who went by said bitter words to him, shaking their heads and saying,”
“And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,”
And sitting down, they observed him.
And they set his accusation above his head, written as: This is Jesus, king of the Jews.
Then two robbers were crucified with him: one on the right and one on the left.
But those passing by blasphemed him, shaking their heads,
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.”
And similarly, the leaders of the priests, with the scribes and the elders, mocking him, said:
“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.
