*
And from [
the ]
sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until [
the ]
ninth hour .
*
And about the ninth hour ,
Jesus cried with a loud voice ,
saying ,
Eli ,
Eli ,
lama sabachthani ?
That is ,
My God ,
My God ,
why have You forsaken me ?
*
Some of those who stood there ,
when they heard ,
said ,
This one calls for Elijah .
*
And immediately one of them ran and took a sponge and filled it with vinegar ,
and he put [
it ]
on a reed and gave it to Him to drink .
*
The rest said ,
Let Him alone ,
let us see whether Elijah will come to save Him .
*
And crying again with a loud voice ,
Jesus released [
His ]
spirit .
*
And ,
behold !
The veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom .
And the earth quaked ,
and the rocks were sheared ,
*
and the tombs were opened ,
and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep arose ,
*
and coming out of the tomb after His resurrection [
they ]
went into the holy city and appeared to many .
*
But the centurion and those guarding Jesus ,
seeing the earthquake ,
and the things that took place , [
they ]
feared greatly ,
saying ,
Truly this One was Son of God .
*
And many of the women were there ,
watching from a distance , [
those ]
who had followed Jesus from Galilee ,
ministering to Him ,
watching from a distance ;
*
among whom was Mary Magdalene ,
and Mary the mother of James and Joses ,
and the mother of Zebedee '
s children .
