Текст пісні
Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land
Until the ninth hour
And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice
Saying
"Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?"
And some of the bystanders, hearing it, said
"This man is calling Elijah."
And one of them at once ran and took a sponge
Filled it with sour wine
And put it on a reed and gave it to him to drink
But the others said
"Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to save him."
And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice
And yielded up his spirit
And behold
The curtain of the temple was torn in two
From top to bottom
And the earth shook
And the rocks were split
The tombs also were opened
And many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised
And coming out of the tombs after his resurrection
They went into the holy city and appeared to many
When the centurion and those who were with him
Keeping watch over Jesus
Saw the earthquake and what took place
They were filled with awe and said
"Truly this was the Son of God!"
