Mark 15:34-37
New International Reader's Version
34 At three o’clock in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” This means “My God, my God, why have you deserted me?” (Psalm 22:1)
35 Some of those standing nearby heard Jesus cry out. They said, “Listen! He’s calling for Elijah.”
36 Someone ran and filled a sponge with wine vinegar. He put it on a stick. He offered it to Jesus to drink. “Leave him alone,” he said. “Let’s see if Elijah comes to take him down.”
37 With a loud cry, Jesus took his last breath.
