Luke 23:44-49
Wycliffe Bible
44 And it was almost the sixth hour, and darknesses were made on all the earth into the ninth hour [till the ninth hour].
45 And the sun was made dark, and the veil of the temple was rent atwo [and the veil of the temple was cut the middle].
46 And Jesus crying with a great voice, said, Father, into thine hands I betake my spirit. And he saying these things, gave up the ghost. [And Jesus crying with great voice, saith, Father, into thy hands I betake my spirit. And he saying these things, sent out the spirit, or died.]
47 And the centurion seeing that thing that was done, glorified God, and said [saying], Verily, this man was just.
48 And all the people of them that were there together at this spectacle, and saw those things that were done, smote their breasts, and turned again.
49 But all his known stood afar, and women that followed him from Galilee, seeing these things.

New Matthew Bible
44 And it was about the sixth hour. And there came a darkness over all the land until the ninth hour, 45 and the sun was darkened. And the veil of the temple did tear, right through the middle. 46 And Jesus cried with a great voice and said, Father, into your hands I commit my spirit. And when he had thus spoken, he gave up the spirit.
47 When the centurion saw what had happened, he glorified God, saying, Surely this was a just man. 48 And all the people who came together to that sight, beholding the things that were done, smote their breasts and returned home. 49 And all those who knew him, and the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood afar off beholding these things.

Authorized (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.
