Bible. Matthew
40:027:032 And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by
name: him they compelled to bear his cross.
40:027:033 And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is
to say, a place of a skull,
40:027:034 They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he
had tasted thereof, he would not drink.
40:027:035 And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots:
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet,
They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did
they cast lots.
40:027:036 And sitting down they watched him there;
40:027:037 And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS
THE KING OF THE JEWS.
40:027:038 Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the
right hand, and another on the left.
40:027:039 And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,
40:027:040 And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it
in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come
down from the cross.
40:027:041 Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes
and elders, said,
40:027:042 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of
Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will
believe him.
40:027:043 He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have
him: for he said, I am the Son of God.
40:027:044 The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same
in his teeth.
40:027:045 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land
unto the ninth hour.
40:027:046 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice,
saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my
God, why hast thou forsaken me?
40:027:047 Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said,
This man calleth for Elias.
40:027:048 And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled
it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
40:027:049 The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to
save him.
40:027:050 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up
the ghost.
40:027:051 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the
top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks
rent;
40:027:052 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints
which slept arose,
40:027:053 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went
into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
40:027:054 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching
Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done,
they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
