MSB(i)
29 And they twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on His head. They put a staff in His right hand and knelt down before Him to mock Him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
30 Then they spit on Him and took the staff and struck Him on the head repeatedly.
31 After they had mocked Him, they removed the robe and put His own clothes back on Him. Then they led Him away to crucify Him.
32 Along the way they found a man from Cyrene, named Simon, and they forced him to carry the cross of Jesus.
33 And when they came to a place called Golgotha, which means The Place of the Skull,
34 they offered Him sour wine to drink, mixed with gall; but after tasting it, He refused to drink it.
35 When they had crucified Him, they divided up His garments by casting lots.
36 And sitting down, they kept watch over Him there.
37 Above His head they posted the written charge against Him: THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 Two robbers were crucified with Him, one on His right hand and the other on His left.
39 And those who passed by heaped abuse on Him, shaking their heads
40 and saying, “You who are going to destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross!”
41 In the same way, the chief priests, scribes, elders, and Pharisees mocked Him, saying,
42 “He saved others, but He cannot save Himself. If He is the King of Israel, let Him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in Him.
43 He trusts in God. Let God deliver Him now if He wants Him. For He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”
44 In the same way, even the robbers who were crucified with Him berated Him.
45 From the sixth hour until the ninth hour darkness came over all the land.
46 About the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lima sabachthani?” which means, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
47 When some of those standing there heard this, they said, “He is calling Elijah.”
48 One of them quickly ran and brought a sponge. He filled it with sour wine, put it on a reed, and held it up for Jesus to drink.
49 But the others said, “Leave Him alone. Let us see if Elijah comes to save Him.”
50 When Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, He yielded up His spirit.
51 At that moment the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth quaked and the rocks were split.
52 The tombs broke open, and the bodies of many saints who had fallen asleep were raised.
53 After Jesus’ resurrection, when they had come out of the tombs, they entered the holy city and appeared to many people.
54 When the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and all that had happened, they were terrified and said, “Truly this was the Son of God.”
