Sexta Statio – Sixth Station

Yowann 19:  1-3              Jesus is scourged at the pillar and crowned with thorns

Pilate then had Jesus taken away and scourged; and after this, the soldiers twisted some thorns into a crown and put it on his head and dressed him in a purple robe.  They kept coming up to him and saying, “Hail, king of the Jews!”  and slapping him in the face.

                Where is the Light of Israel,
		to burn up the thorns that blind?

		Thorns have overrun the citadel.
		But still the citadel stands.

                Ple’ma Golow Ysrael
		dhe gowlleski an spern a dall?

		Spern re dyvas an dinas ryel
		mes yma an dinas ow sevel.
