Mark 15:22-38

22 ^aAnd they brought him to the place called Golgotha (which means Place of a Skull). 23 And they offered him wine mixed with ^bmyrrh, but he did not take it. 24 And they crucified him and ^cdivided his garments among them, casting lots for them, to decide what each should take. 25 And ^dit was the third hour ^{▼▼That is, 9 a.m.} when they crucified him. 26 And the inscription of the charge against him read, ^f“The King of the Jews.” 27 And with him they crucified two ^grobbers, ^hone on his right and one on his left. ^{▼▼Some manuscripts insert verse 28: And the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “He was numbered with the transgressors”} 29 And ^jthose who passed by derided him, ^kwagging their heads and saying, ^l“Aha! ^mYou who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, 30 save yourself, and come down from the cross!” 31 So also the chief priests with the scribes mocked him to one another, saying, ⁿ“He saved others; ^ohe cannot save himself. 32 Let ^pthe Christ, ^qthe King of Israel, come down now from the cross that we may ^rsee and believe.” ^sThose who were crucified with him also reviled him.

The Death of Jesus

33 And when the sixth hour ^{▼▼That is, noon} had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. ^{▼▼That is, 3 p.m.} 34 And at the ninth hour Jesus ^vcried with a loud voice, ^w“Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” 35 And some of the bystanders hearing it said, “Behold, he is calling Elijah.” 36 And someone ran and filled a sponge with ^xsour wine, put it on a reed ^yand gave it to him to drink, saying, “Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to take him down.” 37 And Jesus ^zuttered a loud cry and ^aabreathed his last. 38 And ^abthe curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom.
