Mark 15:22-39

New King James Version

^22 (A)And they brought Him to the place Golgotha, which is translated, Place of a Skull. ^23 (B)Then they gave Him wine mingled with myrrh to drink, but He did not take it. ²⁴ And when they crucified Him, ^(C)they divided His garments, casting lots for them to determine what every man should take.

²⁵ Now ^(D)it was the third hour, and they crucified Him. ²⁶ And ^(E)the inscription of His ^[a]accusation was written above:

THE KING OF THE JEWS.

^27 (F)With Him they also crucified two robbers, one on His right and the other on His left. ^28 [b]So the Scripture was fulfilled which says, ^(G)“And He was numbered with the transgressors.”

²⁹ And ^(H)those who passed by blasphemed Him, ^(I)wagging their heads and saying, “Aha! ^(J)You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, ³⁰ save Yourself, and come down from the cross!”

³¹ Likewise the chief priests also, ^(K)mocking among themselves with the scribes, said, “He saved ^(L)others; Himself He cannot save. ³² Let the Christ, the King of Israel, descend now from the cross, that we may see and ^[c]believe.”

Even ^(M)those who were crucified with Him reviled Him.

Jesus Dies on the Cross^(N)

³³ Now ^(O)when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. ³⁴ And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is translated, ^(P)“My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”

³⁵ Some of those who stood by, when they heard that, said, “Look, He is calling for Elijah!” ³⁶ Then ^(Q)someone ran and filled a sponge full of sour wine, put it on a reed, and ^(R)offered it to Him to drink, saying, “Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to take Him down.”

^37 (S)And Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and breathed His last.

³⁸ Then ^(T)the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. ³⁹ So ^(U)when the centurion, who stood opposite Him, saw that ^[d]He cried out like this and breathed His last, he said, “Truly this Man was the Son of God!”
