Here, the word But introduces the next thing that happened. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces the next event, or you could leave But untranslated. Alternate translation: [Then]

τὴν ἐνάτην ὥραν
the ninth hour
See how you translated the ninth hour in 27:45. Alternate translation: [3:00 PM]
Note 3 topic: translate-ordinal
τὴν ἐνάτην ὥραν
the ninth hour
If your language does not use ordinal numbers, you could use a cardinal number here or an equivalent expression. Alternate translation: [hour nine]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ἀνεβόησεν & φωνῇ μεγάλῃ
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: περὶ δὲ τὴν ἐνάτην ὥραν ἐβόησεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς φωνῇ μεγάλῃ λέγων Ἐλωί ἐλωί λεμὰ σαβαχθάνι τοῦτʼ ἔστιν Θεέ μου Θεέ μου ἵνα τί με ἐγκατέλιπες)
Here, the phrase cried out with a loud voice means Jesus raised the volume of his voice. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [yelled loudly]
Note 5 topic: writing-quotations
λέγων
saying
Consider natural ways of introducing direct quotations in your language. Alternate translation: [and he said]
Note 6 topic: translate-transliterate
Ἐλωῒ, Ἐλωῒ, λεμὰ σαβαχθάνει
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: περὶ δὲ τὴν ἐνάτην ὥραν ἐβόησεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς φωνῇ μεγάλῃ λέγων Ἐλωί ἐλωί λεμὰ σαβαχθάνι τοῦτʼ ἔστιν Θεέ μου Θεέ μου ἵνα τί με ἐγκατέλιπες)
This phrase is what Jesus cried out in Aramaic. Matthew has spelled the words out using Greek letters so his readers would know how they sounded. Since Matthew states what these words mean later in the verse, you also should spell them out the way they sound in your language.
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τοῦτ’ ἔστιν
this is
Here Matthew uses the phrase This is to introduce what the Aramaic words means. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [Those words can be translated this way:] or [Here is what that means:]
27:46 Eli, Eli: This cry means My God, my God, but the similarity in sound accounts for the people’s confusion (27:47).
• My God, my God, why have you abandoned me? Jesus was experiencing God’s wrath for the sins of humanity.
