New King James Version
Matthew 27:33-50
New King James Version
33 (A)And when they had come to a place called Golgotha, that is to say, Place of a Skull, 34 (B)they gave Him [a]sour wine mingled with gall to drink. But when He had tasted it, He would not drink.
35 (C)Then they crucified Him, and divided His garments, casting lots, [b]that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet:
(D)“They divided My garments among them,
And for My clothing they cast lots.”
36 (E)Sitting down, they kept watch over Him there. 37 And they (F)put up over His head the accusation written against Him:
THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 (G)Then two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and another on the left.
39 And (H)those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads 40 and saying, (I)“You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save Yourself! (J)If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross.”
41 Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the [c]scribes and elders, said, 42 “He (K)saved others; Himself He cannot save. [d]If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe [e]Him. 43 (L)He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ”
44 (M)Even the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing.
Jesus Dies on the Cross(N)
45 (O)Now from the sixth hour until the ninth hour there was darkness over all the land. 46 And about the ninth hour (P)Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, (Q)“My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
47 Some of those who stood there, when they heard that, said, “This Man is calling for Elijah!” 48 Immediately one of them ran and took a sponge, (R)filled it with sour wine and put it on a reed, and offered it to Him to drink.
49 The rest said, “Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to save Him.”
50 And Jesus (S)cried out again with a loud voice, and (T)yielded up His spirit.

New International Version
Matthew 27:33-50
New International Version
33 They came to a place called Golgotha (which means “the place of the skull”).(A) 34 There they offered Jesus wine to drink, mixed with gall;(B) but after tasting it, he refused to drink it. 35 When they had crucified him, they divided up his clothes by casting lots.(C) 36 And sitting down, they kept watch(D) over him there. 37 Above his head they placed the written charge against him: this is jesus, the king of the jews.
38 Two rebels were crucified with him,(E) one on his right and one on his left. 39 Those who passed by hurled insults at him, shaking their heads(F) 40 and saying, “You who are going to destroy the temple and build it in three days,(G) save yourself!(H) Come down from the cross, if you are the Son of God!”(I) 41 In the same way the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders mocked him. 42 “He saved others,” they said, “but he can’t save himself! He’s the king of Israel!(J) Let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe(K) in him. 43 He trusts in God. Let God rescue him(L) now if he wants him, for he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’” 44 In the same way the rebels who were crucified with him also heaped insults on him.
The Death of Jesus(M)
45 From noon until three in the afternoon darkness(N) came over all the land. 46 About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli,[a] lema sabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”).[b](O)
47 When some of those standing there heard this, they said, “He’s calling Elijah.”
48 Immediately one of them ran and got a sponge. He filled it with wine vinegar,(P) put it on a staff, and offered it to Jesus to drink. 49 The rest said, “Now leave him alone. Let’s see if Elijah comes to save him.”
50 And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit.(Q)
