Matthew 27:45-50

45From noon until three in the afternoon, darkness came over the whole land.

46About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Elí, Elí, lemá sabachtháni?” that is, “My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?”

47When some of those standing there heard this, they said, “He’s calling for Elijah.”

48Immediately one of them ran and got a sponge, filled it with sour wine, put it on a stick, and offered him a drink.

49But the rest said, “Let’s see if Elijah comes to save him.”

50But Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and gave up his spirit.
