Luke 23:44-49

Jesus Dies

44 It was now about noon. The whole land was covered with darkness until three o'clock.

45 The sun had stopped shining. The temple curtain was torn in two.

46 Jesus called out in a loud voice, "Father, into your hands I commit my very life." After he said this, he took his last breath.

47 The Roman commander saw what had happened. He praised God and said, "Jesus was surely a man who did what was right."

48 The people had gathered to watch that sight. When they saw what happened, they beat their chests and went away.

49 But all those who knew Jesus stood not very far away, watching those things. They included the women who had followed him from Galilee.
