I am a laughingstock to my friends, I, who called on God and whom he answered– a righteous and blameless man is a laughingstock!

They put a purple cloak on him and after braiding a crown of thorns, they put it on him.They began to salute him:“ Hail, king of the Jews!”Again and again they struck him on the head with a staff and spit on him. Then they knelt down and paid homage to him.When they had finished mocking him, they stripped him of the purple cloak and put his own clothes back on him. Then they led him away to crucify him.

Then some began to spit on him, and to blindfold him, and to strike him with their fists, saying,“ Prophesy!” The guards also took him and beat him.

the young men would see me and step aside, and the old men would get up and remain standing;the chief men refrained from talking and covered their mouths with their hands;the voices of the nobles fell silent, and their tongues stuck to the roof of their mouths.
