Matthew 27

41  In like manner also the chief priests mocking `him', with the scribes and elders, said,

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

43  He trusteth on God; let him deliver him now, if he desireth him: for he said, I am the Son of God.

44  And the robbers also that were crucified with him cast upon him the same reproach.

45  Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.

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

47  And some of them stood there, when they heard it, said, This man calleth Elijah.

48  And straightway one of them ran, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.

49  And the rest said, Let be; let us see whether Elijah cometh to save him.

50  And Jesus cried again with a loud voice, and yielded up his spirit.
