Matthew:27:31-50
rsv@Matthew:27:31 @ And when they had mocked him, they stripped him of the robe, and put his own clothes on him, and led him away to crucify him.
rsv@Matthew:27:32 @ As they went out, they came upon a man of Cyre'ne, Simon by name; this man they compelled to carry his cross.
rsv@Matthew:27:33 @ And when they came to a place called Gol'gotha (which means the place of a skull),
rsv@Matthew:27:34 @ they offered him wine to drink, mingled with gall; but when he tasted it, he would not drink it.
rsv@Matthew:27:35 @ And when they had crucified him, they divided his garments among them by casting lots;
rsv@Matthew:27:36 @ then they sat down and kept watch over him there.
rsv@Matthew:27:37 @ And over his head they put the charge against him, which read, "This is Jesus the King of the Jews."
rsv@Matthew:27:38 @ Then two robbers were crucified with him, one on the right and one on the left.
rsv@Matthew:27:39 @ And those who passed by derided him, wagging their heads
rsv@Matthew:27:40 @ and saying, "You who would destroy the temple and build it in three days, save yourself! If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross."
rsv@Matthew:27:41 @ So also the chief priests, with the scribes and elders, mocked him, saying,
rsv@Matthew:27:42 @ "He saved others; he cannot save himself. He is the King of Israel; let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in him.
rsv@Matthew:27:43 @ He trusts in God; let God deliver him now, if he desires him; for he said, `I am the Son of God.'"
rsv@Matthew:27:44 @ And the robbers who were crucified with him also reviled him in the same way.
rsv@Matthew:27:45 @ Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.
rsv@Matthew:27:46 @ And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, la'ma sabach-tha'ni?" that is, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"
rsv@Matthew:27:47 @ And some of the bystanders hearing it said, "This man is calling Eli'jah."
rsv@Matthew:27:48 @ And one of them at once ran and took a sponge, filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave it to him to drink.
rsv@Matthew:27:49 @ But the others said, "Wait, let us see whether Eli'jah will come to save him."
rsv@Matthew:27:50 @ And Jesus cried again with a loud voice and yielded up his spirit.
