Matthew 27:45-56
New American Standard Bible
45 (A)Now from the [a]sixth hour darkness [b]fell upon all the land until the [c]ninth hour. 46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “(B)Eli, Eli, lema sabaktanei?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” 47 And some of those who were standing there, when they heard it, said, “This man is calling for Elijah.” 48 And (C)immediately one of them ran, and taking a sponge, he filled it with sour wine and put it on a reed, and gave Him a drink. 49 But the rest of them said, “[d]Let us see if Elijah comes to save Him[e].” 50 And Jesus (D)cried out again with a loud voice, and gave up His spirit. 51 (E)And behold, (F)the [f]veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and (G)the earth shook and the rocks were split. 52 Also the tombs were opened, and many bodies of the [g]saints who had (H)fallen asleep were raised; 53 and coming out of the tombs after His resurrection, they entered (I)the holy city and appeared to many. 54 (J)Now as for the centurion and those who were with him (K)keeping guard over Jesus, when they saw (L)the earthquake and the other things that were happening, they became extremely frightened and said, “Truly this was [h](M)the Son of God!”
55 (N)And many women were there watching from a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee while (O)caring for Him. 56 Among them were (P)Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and (Q)the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

Death
45 From noon until three in the afternoon the whole earth was dark. 46 At about three Jesus cried out with a loud shout, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani,” which means, “My God, my God, why have you left me?”[a]
47 After hearing him, some standing there said, “He’s calling Elijah.” 48 One of them ran over, took a sponge full of vinegar, and put it on a pole. He offered it to Jesus to drink.
49 But the rest of them said, “Let’s see if Elijah will come and save him.”
50 Again Jesus cried out with a loud shout. Then he died.
51 Look, the curtain of the sanctuary was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split, 52 and the bodies of many holy people who had died were raised. 53 After Jesus’ resurrection they came out of their graves and went into the holy city where they appeared to many people. 54 When the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and what had just happened, they were filled with awe and said, “This was certainly God’s Son.”
55 Many women were watching from a distance. They had followed Jesus from Galilee to serve him. 56 Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of Zebedee’s sons.
