Matthew 27:43-56 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

43. “He trusted in Elohim, let Him rescue Him now if He desires Him, for He said, ‘I am the Son of Elohim.’ ”

44. And also the robbers who were impaled with Him reviled Him, saying the same.

45. And from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land, until the ninth hour.

46. And about the ninth hour יהושע cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Ěli, Ěli, lemah sheḇaqtani?” that is, “My Ěl, My Ěl, why have You forsaken Me?”

47. Some of those standing there, having heard, said, “This One calls Ěliyahu!”

48. And immediately one of them ran and took a sponge, and filled it with sour wine and put it on a reed, and gave it to Him to drink.

49. But the rest said, “Leave it, let us see if Ěliyahu comes to save Him.”

50. And יהושע cried out again with a loud voice, and gave up His spirit.

51. And see, the veil of the Dwelling Place was torn in two from top to bottom, and the earth was shaken, and the rocks were split,

52. and the tombs were opened, and many bodies of the set-apart ones who had fallen asleep were raised,

53. and coming out of the tombs after His resurrection, they went into the set-apart city and appeared to many.

54. And when the captain and those with him, who were guarding יהושע, saw the earthquake and all that took place, they feared exceedingly, saying, “Truly this was the Son of Elohim!”

55. And many women who followed יהושע from Galil, attending Him, were there, watching from a distance,

56. among whom were Miryam from Mag̅dala, and Miryam the mother of Ya‛aqoḇ and Yosĕph, and the mother of Zaḇdai’s sons.
