Mark 15:24-41

24And they crucified Him, and 1divided up His garments among themselves, casting 2lots for them to decide 3what each man should take. 25It was the 45third hour 6when they crucified Him. 26The inscription of the charge against Him 7read, “8THE KING OF THE JEWS.”

27They crucified two robbers with Him, one on His right and one on His left. 28[9And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “And He was numbered with transgressors.”] 29Those passing by were 10hurling abuse at Him, 11wagging their heads, and saying, “Ha! You who are going to 12destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, 30save Yourself, and come down from the cross!” 31In the same way the chief priests also, along with the scribes, were mocking Him among themselves and saying, “13He saved others; 14He cannot save Himself. 32Let this Christ, 15the King of Israel, now come down from the cross, so that we may see and believe!” 16Those who were crucified with Him were also insulting Him.

3317When the 1819sixth hour came, darkness 20fell over the whole land until the 2122ninth hour. 34At the 23ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “24Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is translated, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” 35When some of the bystanders heard it, they began saying, “Behold, He is calling for Elijah.” 36Someone ran and filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on a reed, and gave Him a drink, saying, “25Let us see whether Elijah will come to take Him down.” 3726And Jesus uttered a loud cry, and breathed His last. 3827And the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. 3928When the centurion, who was standing 29right in front of Him, saw 30the way He breathed His last, he said, “Truly this man was 31the Son of God!”

4032There were also some women looking on from a distance, among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of 33James 34the 35Less and Joses, and 36Salome. 41When He was in Galilee, they used to follow Him and 3738minister to Him; and there were many other women who came up with Him to Jerusalem.
