25 And ^ait was the third hour ^{▼▼That is, 9 a.m.} when they crucified him. 26 And the inscription of the charge against him read, ^c“The King of the Jews.” 27 And with him they crucified two ^drobbers, ^eone 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 ^gthose who passed by derided him, ^hwagging their heads and saying, ⁱ“Aha! ^jYou 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, ^k“He saved others; ^lhe cannot save himself. 32 Let ^mthe Christ, ⁿthe King of Israel, come down now from the cross that we may ^osee and believe.” ^pThose 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 ^scried with a loud voice, ^t“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 ^usour wine, put it on a reed ^vand gave it to him to drink, saying, “Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to take him down.” 37 And Jesus ^wuttered a loud cry and ^xbreathed his last.

Luke 23:33-46

33 ^yAnd when they came to the place that is called The Skull, there they crucified him, and the criminals, ^zone on his right and one on his left. 34 And Jesus said, “Father, ^aaforgive them, ^abfor they know not what they do.” ^{▼▼Some manuscripts omit the sentence And Jesus . . . what they do} And they cast lots ^adto divide his garments. 35 And ^aethe people stood by, watching, ^afbut ^agthe rulers ^ahscoffed at him, saying, ^ai“He saved others; ^ajlet him save himself, ^akif he is ^althe Christ of God, ^amhis Chosen One!” 36 The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and ^anoffering him sour wine 37 and saying, ^ao“If you are ^apthe King of the Jews, save yourself!” 38 ^aqThere was also an inscription over him, ^{▼▼Some manuscripts add in letters of Greek and Latin and Hebrew} “This is ^asthe King of the Jews.”

39 ^atOne of the criminals who were hanged ^aurailed at him, ^{▼▼Or blasphemed him} saying, “Are you not ^awthe Christ? Save yourself and us!” 40 But the other rebuked him, saying, “Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? 41 And we indeed justly, for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.” 42 And he said, “Jesus, remember me ^axwhen you come into your kingdom.” 43 And he said to him, “Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in ^ayparadise.”

The Death of Jesus

44 ^azIt was now about the sixth hour, ^{▼▼That is, noon} and there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour, ^{▼▼That is, 3 p.m.} 45 while the sun’s light failed. And ^bcthe curtain of the temple was torn in two. 46 Then Jesus, ^bdcalling out with a loud voice, said, “Father, ^beinto your hands I ^bfcommit my spirit!” And having said this ^bghe breathed his last.

John 19:18-30

18 ^bhThere they crucified him, and with him two others, one on either side, and Jesus between them. 19 Pilate ^bialso wrote an inscription and put it on the cross. It read, “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.” 20 Many of the Jews read this inscription, for ^bjthe place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Aramaic, in Latin, and in Greek. 21 So the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but rather, ‘This man said, I am King of the Jews.’” 22 Pilate answered, ^bk“What I have written I have written.”

23 ^blWhen the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his garments and divided them into four parts, one part for each soldier; also his tunic. ^{▼▼Greek chiton, a long garment worn under the cloak next to the skin} But the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom, 24 so they said to one another, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to see whose it shall be.” ^bnThis was to fulfill the Scripture which says,

^bo“They divided my garments among them,
and for my clothing they cast lots.”
So the soldiers did these things, 25 ^bpbut standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Jesus saw his mother and ^bqthe disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to his mother, ^br“Woman, behold, your son!” 27 Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” And from that hour the disciple took her to ^bshis own home.

The Death of Jesus

28 After this, Jesus, knowing that all was now ^btfinished, said ( ^buto fulfill the Scripture), ^bv“I thirst.” 29 A jar full of sour wine stood there, ^bwso they put a sponge full of the sour wine on a hyssop branch and held it to his mouth. 30 When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, ^bx“It is finished,” and he bowed his head and ^bygave up his spirit.
