St Matthew 27:42-48 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

42. He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the king of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.

43. He trusted in God; let him now deliver him if he will have him; for he said: I am the Son of God.

44. And the selfsame thing the thieves also, that were crucified with him, reproached him with.

45. Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over the whole earth, until the ninth hour.

46. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying: Eli, Eli, lamma sabacthani? that is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

47. And some that stood there and heard, said: This man calleth Elias.

48. And immediately one of them running took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar; and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
