Matthew 27:42-44
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
42 “He saved others— Himself He is not able to save! He is King of Israel— let Him come down now from the cross and we will put-faith upon Him! 43 He trusts in God— let Him deliver Him now, if He wants[a] Him. For He said that ‘I am God’s Son’”. 44 And even[b] the robbers, the ones having been crucified with Him, were reproaching Him the same.

Matthew 27:42-44
New International Version
42 “He saved others,” they said, “but he can’t save himself! He’s the king of Israel!(A) Let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe(B) in him. 43 He trusts in God. Let God rescue him(C) now if he wants him, for he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’” 44 In the same way the rebels who were crucified with him also heaped insults on him.
