Mark 15:31

Verse 31 of 47. The 15th of 16 chapters in Mark, in The Gospels.

27With him they crucified two robbers, one on his right hand, and one on his left.

28The Scripture was fulfilled which says, “He was counted with transgressors.”

29Those who passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads and saying, “Ha! You who destroy the temple and build it in three days,

30save yourself, and come down from the cross!”

31Likewise, also the chief priests mocking among themselves with the scribes said, “He saved others. He can’t save himself.

32Let the Christ, the King of Israel, now come down from the cross, that we may see and believe him.” Those who were crucified with him also insulted him.

33When the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.

34At the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is, being interpreted, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

35Some of those who stood by, when they heard it, said, “Behold, he is calling Elijah.”
