Mark 15:29-47 ▼

29 And they going by blasphemed him, shaking their heads, and saying, Ah, thou loosing the temple, and building in three days,

30 Save thyself, and come down from the cross.

31 And likewise also the chief priests, mocking to one another with the scribes, said, He saved others; himself he cannot save.

32 Let Christ, King of Israel, come down from the cross, that we might see and believe. And they crucified with him reproached him.

33 And being the sixth hour, darkness was upon the whole earth till the ninth hour.

34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a great voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, for what hast thou forsaken me?

35 And some of them standing by, having heard, said, Behold, he calls Elias.

36 And one running and having filled a sponge with vinegar, and put round a reed, gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see if Elias will come to take him down.

37 And Jesus having let go a great voice, expired.

38 And the veil of the temple was split in two from above to below.

39 And the centurion, standing over against him, having seen that having so cried out he expired, said, Truly this man was the Son- of God.

40 And women also were beholding from far: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary of James the small and the mother of Joses, and Salome;

41 (And they, when he was in Galilee, followed him and served him;) and many other women, having come up with him to Jerusalem.

42 And being already evening, for it was the preparation, which is before sabbath,

43 Joseph came from Arimathea, a distinguished counsellor, who also himself was expecting the kingdom of God, having ventured, he went in to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus.

44 And Pilate wondered if he were already dead: and having called the centurion, he asked him if he had been dead long ago.

45 And having known from the centurion, he bestowed the body to Joseph.

46 And having bought fine linen, and taken him down, he rolled in fine linen, and placed him in a tomb, which was quarried out of a rock, and he rolled a stone at the door of the tomb.

47 And Mary Magdalene and Mari of Joses were beholding where he is laid.
