44 (A)It was now about [a](B)the sixth hour, and darkness came over the entire land until [b]the ninth hour, 45 [c]because the sun stopped shining; and (C)the veil of the temple was torn [d]in two. 46 And Jesus, (D)crying out with a loud voice, said, “Father, (E)into Your hands I entrust My spirit.” And having said this, He [e]died. 47 (F)Now when the centurion saw what had happened, he began (G)praising God, saying, “This man was in fact [f]innocent.” 48 And all the crowds who came together for this spectacle, after watching what had happened, began to return home, [g](H)beating their chests. 49 (I)And all His acquaintances and (J)the women who accompanied Him from Galilee were standing at a distance, seeing these things.

Darkness Comes Over the Land And The Temple Curtain Is Torn. Jesus Dies
44 And it was now about the sixth[a] hour. And a darkness came over the whole land[b] until the ninth hour, 45 the sun having failed. And the curtain of the temple was torn[c] in-the-middle. 46 And having called-out with a loud voice, Jesus said, “Father, I commend[d] My spirit into Your hands”. And having said this, He expired. 47 And having seen the thing having taken place, the centurion was glorifying God, saying “This man really was righteous”. 48 And all the crowds having come together for this sight, having watched the things having taken place, were returning striking their chests. 49 But all His acquaintances and the women accompanying Him from Galilee were standing at a distance while seeing these things.

The Death of Jesus(A)
44 It was now about noon, and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon,(B) 45 for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple(C) was torn in two.(D) 46 Jesus called out with a loud voice,(E) “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.”[a](F) When he had said this, he breathed his last.(G)
47 The centurion, seeing what had happened, praised God(H) and said, “Surely this was a righteous man.” 48 When all the people who had gathered to witness this sight saw what took place, they beat their breasts(I) and went away. 49 But all those who knew him, including the women who had followed him from Galilee,(J) stood at a distance,(K) watching these things.

King James Version
44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.
45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.
46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.
47 Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.
48 And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.
49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.
