Matthew 27:39-49
39AndG1161 those whoG3588 passed byG3899 heaped abuse onG987 HimG846, shakingG2795 theirG846 headsG2776 40andG2532 sayingG3004, “You whoG3588 are going to destroyG2647 theG3588 templeG3485 andG2532 rebuildG3618 it inG1722 threeG5140 daysG2250, saveG4982 YourselfG4572! IfG1487 You areG1510 the SonG5207 of GodG2316, come downG2597 fromG575 theG3588 crossG4716!”
41In the same wayG3668, theG3588 chief priestsG749, scribesG1122, andG2532 eldersG4245 mocked HimG1702, sayingG2036, 42“He savedG4982 othersG243, but He cannotG3756G1410 saveG4982 HimselfG1438. He isG1510 the KingG935 of IsraelG2474! Let Him come downG2597 nowG3568 fromG575 theG3588 crossG4716, andG2532 we will believeG4100 inG1909 HimG846. 43He trustsG3982 inG1909 GodG2316. Let God deliverG4506 HimG846 nowG3568 ifG1487 He wants HimG2309.1 ForG1063 He saidG2036, ‘I amG1510 the SonG5207 of GodG2316.’”
44In the same wayG1161G3588G846, evenG2532 theG3588 robbersG3027 whoG3588 were crucifiedG4957 withG4862 HimG846 beratedG3679 HimG846.
FromG575 the sixthG1623 hourG5610 untilG2193 the ninthG1766 hourG56102 darknessG4655 cameG1096 overG1909 allG3956 theG3588 landG1093. 46AboutG4012 theG3588 ninthG1766 hourG5610 JesusG2424 cried outG310 in a loud voiceG3173G5456, “EliG2241, EliG2241,3 lemaG2982 sabachthaniG4518?” whichG3778 meansG1510, “MyG1473 GodG2316, MyG1473 GodG2316, whyG2443G5101 have You forsakenG1459 MeG1473?”4
47WhenG1161 someG5100 of thoseG3588 standingG2476 thereG1563 heard thisG191, they saidG2036, “He is callingG5455 ElijahG2243.” 48OneG1520 ofG1537 themG846 quicklyG2112 ranG5143 andG2532 broughtG2983 a spongeG4699. He filledG4130 it with sour wineG3690,5 put it onG4060 a reedG2563, and held it up for Jesus to drinkG4222G846.6
49ButG1161 theG3588 othersG3062 saidG2036, “Leave Him aloneG863. Let us seeG3708 ifG1487 ElijahG2243 comesG2064 to saveG4982 HimG846.”7
