33And when they came to the place that is called “The Skull,” there they crucified him, and the criminals, the one on his right and the other on his left. 34⟦But Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.”⟧j And they cast lots to divide his clothes. 35And the people stood there watching, but the rulers also ridiculed him,* saying, “He saved others; let him save himself, if this man is the Christk of God, the Chosen One!” 36And the soldiers also mocked him, coming up and* offering him sour wine 37and saying, “If you are the king of the Jews, save yourself!” 38And there was also an inscription over him, “This is the king of the Jews.”

39And one of the criminals who were hanged there reviled him, saying, “Are you not the Christ? Save yourself—and us!” 40But the other answered and* rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, because you are undergoing the same condemnation? 41And we indeed justly, for we are receiving what we deservel for what we have done. But this man has done nothing wrong!” 42And he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom!” 43And he said to him, “Truly I say to you, today you will be with me in paradise.”

Jesus Dies on the Cross

44And by this time it was about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour 45because* the light of the sun failed. And the curtain of the temple was torn apart down the middle. 46And Jesus, calling out with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I entrust my spirit!”m And after he* said this, he expired.
