Luke 23:44-49
New King James Version
Jesus Dies on the Cross(A)
44 (B)Now it [a]was about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour. 45 Then the sun was [b]darkened, and (C)the veil of the temple was torn in [c]two. 46 And when Jesus had cried out with a loud voice, He said, “Father, (D)‘into Your hands I commit My spirit.’ ” (E)Having said this, He breathed His last.
47 (F)So when the centurion saw what had happened, he glorified God, saying, “Certainly this was a righteous Man!”
48 And the whole crowd who came together to that sight, seeing what had been done, beat their breasts and returned. 49 (G)But all His acquaintances, and the women who followed Him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching these things.

American Standard Version
44 And it was now about the sixth hour, and a darkness came over the whole [a]land until the ninth hour, 45 [b]the sun’s light failing: and the veil of the [c]temple was rent in the midst. 46 [d]And Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said this, he gave up the ghost. 47 And when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man. 48 And all the multitudes that came together to this sight, when they beheld the things that were done, returned smiting their breasts. 49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed with him from Galilee, stood afar off, seeing these things.
