然而人跌倒，怎会不伸手？人遇灾祸，怎会不呼救呢？

『然而人在荒堆、哪不伸手？人遇災禍、哪不因而呼救呢？

然人顚仆、豈不伸手、遇災豈不呼援、

上帝降災、使人喪亡、祈禱無益、呼籲無裨。

天主舉手、祈禱亦無益、天主降災於人、呼籲亦徒然、或作人傾仆之時豈不伸手求救乎人遇災之時豈不呼援乎

過路的人嘲笑他，搖著頭說：“你這個想拆毀聖所，三日之內又把它建造起來的，救救自己吧！如果你是神的兒子，從十字架上下來吧！”祭司長、經學家和長老也同樣譏笑他，說：“他救了別人，卻不能救自己。如果他是以色列的王，現在可以從十字架上下來，我們就信他。他信靠神；如果神喜悅他，就讓神現在救他吧，因為他說自己是神的兒子。”和他一同釘十字架的強盜也都這樣侮辱他。

耶和華啊，願你所有的仇敵都這樣滅亡；願愛他的人像太陽出現，大有能力。”於是國中太平了四十年。
