Mark 15:25-37
New International Version
25 It was nine in the morning when they crucified him. 26 The written notice of the charge against him read: the king of the jews.(A)
27 They crucified two rebels with him, one on his right and one on his left. [28] [a] 29 Those who passed by hurled insults at him, shaking their heads(B) and saying, “So! You who are going to destroy the temple and build it in three days,(C) 30 come down from the cross and save yourself!” 31 In the same way the chief priests and the teachers of the law mocked him(D) among themselves. “He saved others,” they said, “but he can’t save himself! 32 Let this Messiah,(E) this king of Israel,(F) come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe.” Those crucified with him also heaped insults on him.
The Death of Jesus(G)
33 At noon, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon.(H) 34 And at three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”).[b](I)
35 When some of those standing near heard this, they said, “Listen, he’s calling Elijah.”
36 Someone ran, filled a sponge with wine vinegar,(J) put it on a staff, and offered it to Jesus to drink. “Now leave him alone. Let’s see if Elijah comes to take him down,” he said.
37 With a loud cry, Jesus breathed his last.(K)

The Certainty of God’s Promise
13 When God made his promise to Abraham, since there was no one greater for him to swear by, he swore by himself,(A) 14 saying, “I will surely bless you and give you many descendants.”[a](B) 15 And so after waiting patiently, Abraham received what was promised.(C)
16 People swear by someone greater than themselves, and the oath confirms what is said and puts an end to all argument.(D) 17 Because God wanted to make the unchanging(E) nature of his purpose very clear to the heirs of what was promised,(F) he confirmed it with an oath. 18 God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie,(G) we who have fled to take hold of the hope(H) set before us may be greatly encouraged.
