34) And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, " E'lo-i, E'lo-i, la'ma sabach-tha'ni?" which means, " My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" 35) And some of the bystanders hearing it said, "Behold, he is calling Eli'jah." 36) And one ran and, filling a sponge full of vinegar, put it on a reed and gave it to him to drink, saying, "Wait, let us see whether Eli'jah will come to take him down." 37) And Jesus uttered a loud cry, and breathed his last. 38) And the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. 39) And when the centurion, who stood facing him, saw that he thus breathed his last, he said, "Truly this man was the Son of God!" 40) There were also women looking on from afar, among whom were Mary Mag'dalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salo'me, 41) who, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered to him; and also many other women who came up with him to Jerusalem. 42) And when evening had come, since it was the day of Preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath, 43) Joseph of Arimathe'a, a respected member of the council, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, took courage and went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus. 44) And Pilate wondered if he were already dead; and summoning the centurion, he asked him whether he was already dead. 45) And when he learned from the centurion that he was dead, he granted the body to Joseph. 46) And he bought a linen shroud, and taking him down, wrapped him in the linen shroud, and laid him in a tomb which had been hewn out of the rock; and he rolled a stone against the door of the tomb. 47) Mary Mag'dalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw where he was laid.
