Jesus Dies on the Cross^(A)

³³ Now ^(B)when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. ³⁴ And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is translated, ^(C)“My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”

³⁵ Some of those who stood by, when they heard that, said, “Look, He is calling for Elijah!” ³⁶ Then ^(D)someone ran and filled a sponge full of sour wine, put it on a reed, and ^(E)offered it to Him to drink, saying, “Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to take Him down.”

^37 (F)And Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and breathed His last.

³⁸ Then ^(G)the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. ³⁹ So ^(H)when the centurion, who stood opposite Him, saw that ^[a]He cried out like this and breathed His last, he said, “Truly this Man was the Son of God!”

^40 (I)There were also women looking on ^(J)from afar, among whom were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the Less and of Joses, and Salome, ⁴¹ who also ^(K)followed Him and ministered to Him when He was in Galilee, and many other women who came up with Him to Jerusalem.

^44 (B)Now it ^[a]was about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour. ⁴⁵ Then the sun was ^[b]darkened, and ^(C)the veil of the temple was torn in ^[c]two. ⁴⁶ And when Jesus had cried out with a loud voice, He said, “Father, ^(D)‘into Your hands I commit My spirit.’ ” ^(E)Having said this, He breathed His last.

^47 (F)So when the centurion saw what had happened, he glorified God, saying, “Certainly this was a righteous Man!”

⁴⁸ And the whole crowd who came together to that sight, seeing what had been done, beat their breasts and returned. ^49 (G)But all His acquaintances, and the women who followed Him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching these things.

It Is Finished

²⁸ After this, Jesus, ^[a]knowing that all things were now accomplished, ^(A)that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I thirst!” ²⁹ Now a vessel full of sour wine was sitting there; and ^(B)they filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on hyssop, and put it to His mouth. ³⁰ So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, ^(C)“It is finished!” And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.
