Matthew 27:34-53

34they gave to him to drink vinegar mingled with gall; and having tasted [it], he would not drink.

35And having crucified him, they parted his clothes amongst [themselves], casting lots.

36And sitting down, they kept guard over him there.

37And they set up over his head his accusation written: This is Jesus, the King of the Jews.

38Then are crucified with him two robbers, one on the right hand and one on the left.

39But the passers-by reviled him, shaking their heads

40and saying, Thou that destroyest the temple and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou art Son of 1God, descend from the cross.

41[And] in like manner the chief priests also, mocking, with the scribes and elders, said,

42He saved others, himself he cannot save. He is King of Israel: let him descend now from the cross, and we will believe on him.

43He trusted upon 2God; let him save him now if he will [have] him. For he said, I am Son of 3God.

44And the robbers also who had been crucified with him cast the same reproaches on him.

45Now from [the] sixth hour there was darkness over the whole land until [the] ninth hour;

46but about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My 4God, my 5God, why hast thou forsaken me?

47And some of those who stood there, when they heard [it], said, This [man] calls for Elias.

48And immediately one of them running and getting a sponge, having filled [it] with vinegar and fixed [it] on a reed, gave him to drink.

49But the rest said, Let be; let us see if Elias comes to save him.

50And Jesus, having again cried with a loud voice, gave up the ghost.

51And lo, the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom, and the earth was shaken, and the rocks were rent,

52and the tombs were opened; and many bodies of the saints fallen asleep arose,

53and going out of the tombs after his arising, entered into the holy city and appeared unto many.
