39 And athose who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads
40 and saying, a“You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save Yourself! bIf You are the Son of God, come down from the cross.”
41 Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the1 scribes and elders, said,
42 “He asaved others; Himself He cannot save.1 If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe2 Him.
43 aHe trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ”
44 aEven the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing.
Jesus Dies on the Cross
45 aNow from the sixth hour until the ninth hour there was darkness over all the land.
46 And about the ninth hour aJesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, b“My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
47 Some of those who stood there, when they heard that, said, “This Man is calling for Elijah!”
48 Immediately one of them ran and took a sponge, afilled it with sour wine and put it on a reed, and offered it to Him to drink.
