34. Ngalo ilixa lesithoba, wadanduluka uYesu ngezwi elikhulu, esithi, Eloyi! Eloyi! Lama sabhaktani? Oko kukuthi ngentetho evakalayo, Thixo wam!
35. Thixo wam! undishiyeleni na? Inxenye yababemi khona yakuva yathi, Yabonani, ubiza uEliya.
36. Wagidima ke omnye, wazalisa imfunxa ngeviniga, wayifaka engcongolweni, wamseza, esithi, Khanenze kuhle, khe sibone ukuba uEliya woza kumthula na.
37. Wathi ke uYesu, ekhuphe izwi elikhulu, waphuma umphefumlo.
38. Lathi ikhuselo lengcwele lakrazuka kubini, lithabathela phezulu lada lesa phantsi.
39. Ebonile ke umthetheli-khulu obemi malunga naye, ukuba wenjenjalo ukudanduluka waphuma umphefumlo, uthe, Inyaniso, lo mntu ubenguNyana kaThixo.
40. Kwaye ke kukho nabafazi, bekhangele bemgama; kubo apho wayenguMariya waseMagadala, noMariya unina wooYakobi omnci nokaYose, kwanoSalome;
41. ababesithi, oko ebeba kwelaseGalili, bamlandele, bamlungiselele; nabanye abaninzi, ababenyuke naye ukuya eYerusalem.
42. Kuthe sekuhlwile, ekubeni ibiyimini yokulungiselela, oko kukuthi ngumhla ophambi kwesabatha,
43. kweza uYosefu, owaseArimati, umphakathi obekekileyo, owayebulindile naye ubukumkani bukaThixo; waya kungena ngobuganga kuPilato, wacela umzimba kaYesu.
44. Wamangaliswa ke uPilato kukuba selefile. Ebizele kuye umthetheli-khulu, wambuza ukuba uselenexesha na efile.
45. Wathi akuqonda kumthetheli-khulu lowo, wamnika uYosefu umzimba.
