"And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS. This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin. Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, the King of the Jews; but that He said, I am King of the Jews. Pilate answered, What I have written I have written" (John 19:19-22).
Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews,
For our sakes was smitten, believe it or not.
Scoffers may gather with contrary views,
Yet what has been written shall surely be wrought.
Write it in Hebrew, in Greek, and in Latin;
Write it in all of the languages known!
The Scripture is true; be sure it will happen:
No one shall stall the decree from God's throne.
Neither jot nor a tittle in all of God's Word
Shall ever be wrong, and cannot pass away.
The lot and the little of Scripture we've heard,
No matter how long, shall be wrought in its day.
