The Death of Jesus
44 It(A) was now about noon,[a] and darkness came over the whole land[b] until three,[c] 45 because the sun’s light failed.[d] The curtain(B) of the sanctuary was split down the middle. 46 And Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Father, into your hands I entrust my spirit.”[e](C) Saying this, he breathed his last.
47 When the centurion saw what happened, he began to glorify(D) God, saying, “This man really was righteous!” [f] 48 All the crowds that had gathered for this spectacle, when they saw what had taken place, went home, striking their chests.(E) 49 But(F) all who knew him, including the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood at a distance,(G) watching these things.

Jesus’ death
44 It was now about noon, and darkness covered the whole earth until about three o’clock, 45 while the sun stopped shining. Then the curtain in the sanctuary tore down the middle. 46 Crying out in a loud voice, Jesus said, “Father, into your hands I entrust my life.”[a] After he said this, he breathed for the last time.
47 When the centurion saw what happened, he praised God, saying, “It’s really true: this man was righteous.” 48 All the crowds who had come together to see this event returned to their homes beating their chests after seeing what had happened. 49 And everyone who knew him, including the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood at a distance observing these things.
