The Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ According to Mark
"When the sixth hour came, there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour,and at the ninth hour Jesus cried out
with a loud voice, Eloi, Eloi, lamma sabachthani? which means, My God,
my God, why hast thou forsaken me?*1 Hearing this, some of those who stood by said, Why, he is calling upon Elias.And thereupon one of them ran off to
fill a sponge with vinegar, and fixed it on a rod, and offered to let
him drink; Wait, he said, Let us see whether Elias is to come and save
him.Then Jesus gave a loud cry, and yielded up his spirit. And the veil of the temple was torn this way and that, from the top to the bottom.The centurion who stood in front of him,
perceiving that he so yielded up his spirit with a cry, said, No doubt
but this was the Son of God."
*1 Ps. 21.2.
