Luke 23:44-49

International Standard Version

Jesus Dies on the Cross^(A)

⁴⁴ It was already about noon,^[a] and the whole land^[b] became dark until three in the afternoon^{[c] 45} because the sun had stopped shining, and the curtain^[d] in the sanctuary was torn in two. ⁴⁶ Then Jesus cried out with a loud voice and said, “Father, into your hands I entrust my spirit.”^[e] After he said this, he breathed his last.

⁴⁷ When the centurion^[f] saw what had taken place, he praised God and said, “This man certainly was righteous!” ⁴⁸ When all the crowds who had come together for this spectacle saw what had taken place, they beat their chests and left. ⁴⁹ But all his acquaintances, including the women who had followed him from Galilee, were standing at a distance watching these things.
