Matthew 27:46-48

Modern English Version

⁴⁶ About the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” which means, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”^[a]

⁴⁷ Some of those who stood there heard it and said, “This Man is calling for Elijah.”

⁴⁸ Immediately one of them ran, took a sponge, filled it with wine, and put it on a stick, and gave it to Him to drink.
