Mark 15:33-36

33At noon darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon.

34At three o’clock Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?”

35When some of the people standing there heard him say that, they said, “Listen! He’s calling Elijah.”

36Someone ran and soaked a sponge in vinegar. Then he put it on a stick and offered Jesus a drink. The man said, “Let’s see if Elijah comes to take him down.”
