The people stood watching. The rulers with them also scoffed at him, saying, "He saved others. Let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, his chosen one!"

Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!" Having said this, he breathed his last.

All his acquaintances, and the women who followed with him from Galilee, stood far away, watching these things.

The women, who had come with him out of Galilee, followed after, and saw the tomb, and how his body was laid.

They remembered his words,

But Peter got up and ran to the tomb. Stooping and looking in, he saw the strips of linen lying by themselves, and he departed to his home, wondering what had happened.

Jesus also was invited, with his disciples, to the marriage.
