Now from the sixth houre there was darkenesse ouer all the land vnto the ninth houre.

And about the ninth houre, Iesus cried with a loud voyce, saying, Eli, Eli, Lamasabachthani, that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken mee?

Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.

And straightway one of them ran, and tooke a spunge, and filled it with vineger, and put it on a reede, and gaue him to drinke.

The rest said, Let bee, let vs see whether Elias will come to saue him.

Iesus, when hee had cried againe with a loud voice, yeelded vp the ghost.

And behold, the vaile of the Temple was rent in twaine, from the top to the bottome, and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent.

And the graues were opened, and many bodies of Saints which slept, arose,

And came out of the graues after his resurrection, and went into the holy citie, and appeared vnto many.

Now when the Centurion, and they that were with him, watching Iesus, saw the earthquake, & those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truely this was the Son of God.

And many women were there (beholding afarre off) which followed Iesus from Galilee, ministring vnto him.

Among which was Mary Magdalene, & Mary the mother of Iames and Ioses, and the mother of Zebedees children.
