In Context

45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour;

46 but about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

47 And some of those who stood there, when they heard it, said, This man calls for Elias.

48 And immediately one of them running and getting a sponge, having filled it with vinegar and fixed it on a reed, gave him to drink.

49 But the rest said, Let be; let us see if Elias comes to save him.

50 And Jesus, having again cried with a loud voice, gave up the ghost.
