45 Around noon, the whole country became dark for three hours 46 and then around 3pm, Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) shouted with a loud voice, “My god, my god, why have you abandoned me?”[ref]

47 Some of the people standing there heard him and thought that he was calling Eliyah (Elijah)[fn] 48 One of them ran and got a sponge and dipped it in wine vinegar, and then wrapped it around a reed and held it up to his mouth to drink from.[ref]

49 But the others were saying, “Just leave him and we’ll see whether Eliyah comes to save him.”

50 Then Yeshua made a loud cry and sent his spirit away.

51 Then, wow, the curtain inside the temple was torn apart from the top to the bottom,[ref] and there was an earthquake and splitting of rocks. 52 Some tombs came open and many bodies of godly people came alive again 53 and leaving the tombs after his resurrection, they went into God’s city where many people saw them.

54 The Roman officer and his soldiers who were guarding Yeshua were very frightened when they felt the earthquake and saw what happened, and said, “This man really was a son of God!”

55 There were many women watching all that from a distance—they were those who from Galil who had followed Yeshua and looked after him,[ref] 56 including Miryam (Grk. Maria/Mariam) from Magdala, Miryam the mother of Ya’akov (James; Grk. Yakobos) and Yosef (Joseph), and Zavday’s (Grk. Zebedaios’) wife—the mother of Ya’akov and Yohan (John; Grk. Yoannes).
