15:33 Now 7 when it was noon, 8 darkness came over the whole land 9 until three in the afternoon. 10 15:34 Around three o’clock 11 Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” 12 15:35 When some of the bystanders heard it they said, “Listen, he is calling for Elijah!” 13 15:36 Then someone ran, filled a sponge with sour wine, 14 put it on a stick, 15 and gave it to him to drink, saying, “Leave him alone! Let’s see if Elijah will come to take him down!” 15:37 But Jesus cried out with a loud voice and breathed his last. 15:38 And the temple curtain 16 was torn in two, from top to bottom. 15:39 Now when the centurion, 17 who stood in front of him, saw how he died, 18 he said, “Truly this man was God’s Son!” 15:40 There were also women, watching from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, 19 and Salome. 15:41 When he was in Galilee, they had followed him and given him support. 20 Many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem 21 were there too.
15:42 Now 22 when evening had already come, since it was the day of preparation (that is, the day before the Sabbath), 23 15:43 Joseph of Arimathea, a highly regarded member of the council, 24 who was himself looking forward to 25 the kingdom of God, 26 went boldly to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 27 15:44 Pilate was surprised that he was already dead. He 28 called the centurion and asked him if he had been dead for some time. 15:45 When Pilate 29 was informed by the centurion, 30 he gave the body to Joseph. 15:46 After Joseph 31 bought a linen cloth 32 and took down the body, he wrapped it in the linen and placed it in a tomb cut out of the rock. 33 Then 34 he rolled a stone across the entrance 35 of the tomb. 15:47 Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw where the body 36 was placed.
