Matthew 27:27–31 · Berean Standard Bible

27 Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium and gathered the whole company around Him.

28 They stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him.

29 And they twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on His head. They put a staff in His right hand and knelt down before Him to mock Him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”

30 Then they spit on Him and took the staff and struck Him on the head repeatedly.

31 After they had mocked Him, they removed the robe and put His own clothes back on Him. Then they led Him away to crucify Him.
