An inscription written in three different languages.
Luke 23:38 And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew
John quoted the Latin inscription. IESUS NAZARENVS REX IVDAEORVM (Jesus of Nazareth The King of The Jews.)
Luke quoted the Greek inscription. OUTOS ESTIN O BASILEUS TWN IOUDAIWN (This is The King of The Jews)
Matthew since he was writing to the Jews whose language was Hebrew quoted the Hebrew inscription. This is The King of The Jews.
Mark of course was rather brief even of his description of what Jesus said just quoted the short version as he was prone to do. The King of The Jews.
I’ve been asked that over and over by Catholics and other pagans trying to discredit scripture. It gets really old because it only points to their lack of study of scripture.

Interesing. I don't recall seeing this claim before. Do you have a source? After all, the NT was written entirely in Greek. Why would the Gospel writings each pick a different language?

I don't discredit Scripture. I do discredit pagans who make believe that they are true Christians and the real Christians are in fact, not.
