25
And it was the third hour when they crucified him.
26
And the inscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
27
And with him they crucified two thieves: the one on his right hand and the other on his left.
28
And the scripture was fulfilled, which says, And he was numbered with the transgressors.
29
And those that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads and saying, Ah, thou that would destroy the temple of God and build
it in three days,
30
save thyself and come down from the
cross {Gr. stauros – stake}.
31
Likewise also the princes of the priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.
32
Let the Christ, King of Israel, descend now from the stake that we may see and believe. And those that were crucified {Gr. Stauroo – to hang on a stake} with him reviled him.
33
And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.
34
And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
35
And some of those that stood by, when they heard
it, said, Behold, he calls Elijah.
