MARK 15 NIV 25 IT WAS NINE IN

MARK 15 (NIV) 25 IT WAS NINE IN THE MORNING WHEN THEY CRUCIFIED HIM. 26 THE WRITTEN NOTICE OF THE CHARGE AGAINST HIM READ: THE KING OF THE JEWS. 27 THEY CRUCIFIED TWO REBELS WITH HIM, ONE ON HIS RIGHT AND ONE ON HIS LEFT.

MARK 15 (NIV) 29 THOSE WHO PASSED BY HURLED INSULTS AT HIM, SHAKING THEIR HEADS AND SAYING, “SO! YOU WHO ARE GOING TO DESTROY THE TEMPLE AND BUILD IT IN THREE DAYS, 30 COME DOWN FROM THE CROSS AND SAVE YOURSELF!”

MARK 15 (NIV) 31 IN THE SAME WAY THE CHIEF PRIESTS AND THE TEACHERS OF THE LAW MOCKED HIM AMONG THEMSELVES. “HE SAVED OTHERS, ” THEY SAID, “BUT HE CAN’T SAVE HIMSELF!

MARK 15 (NIV) 32 LET THIS MESSIAH, THIS KING OF ISRAEL, COME DOWN NOW FROM THE CROSS, THAT WE MAY SEE AND BELIEVE. ” THOSE CRUCIFIED WITH HIM ALSO HEAPED INSULTS ON HIM. 33 AT NOON, DARKNESS CAME OVER THE WHOLE LAND UNTIL THREE IN THE AFTERNOON.

MARK 15 (NIV) 34 AND AT THREE IN THE AFTERNOON JESUS CRIED OUT IN A LOUD VOICE, “ELOI, LEMA SABACHTHANI? ” (WHICH MEANS “MY GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME? ”). 35 WHEN SOME OF THOSE STANDING NEAR HEARD THIS, THEY SAID, “LISTEN, HE’S CALLING ELIJAH. ”

MARK 15 (NIV) 36 SOMEONE RAN, FILLED A SPONGE WITH WINE VINEGAR, PUT IT ON A STAFF, AND OFFERED IT TO JESUS TO DRINK. “NOW LEAVE HIM ALONE. LET’S SEE IF ELIJAH COMES TO TAKE HIM DOWN, ” HE SAID. 37 WITH A LOUD CRY, JESUS BREATHED HIS LAST.

MARK 16 (NIV) 1 WHEN THE SABBATH WAS OVER, MARY MAGDALENE, MARY THE MOTHER OF JAMES, AND SALOME BOUGHT SPICES SO THAT THEY MIGHT GO TO ANOINT JESUS’ BODY. 2 VERY EARLY ON THE FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK, JUST AFTER SUNRISE, THEY WERE ON THEIR WAY TO THE TOMB

MARK 16 (NIV) 3 AND THEY ASKED EACH OTHER, “WHO WILL ROLL THE STONE AWAY FROM THE ENTRANCE OF THE TOMB? ” 4 BUT WHEN THEY LOOKED UP, THEY SAW THAT THE STONE, WHICH WAS VERY LARGE, HAD BEEN ROLLED AWAY.

MARK 16 (NIV) 5 AS THEY ENTERED THE TOMB, THEY SAW A YOUNG MAN DRESSED IN A WHITE ROBE SITTING ON THE RIGHT SIDE, AND THEY WERE ALARMED. 6 “DON’T BE ALARMED, ” HE SAID. “YOU ARE LOOKING FOR JESUS THE NAZARENE, WHO WAS CRUCIFIED. HE HAS RISEN! HE IS NOT HERE. SEE THE PLACE WHERE THEY LAID HIM.

MARK 16 (NIV) 7 BUT GO, TELL HIS DISCIPLES AND PETER, ‘HE IS GOING AHEAD OF YOU INTO GALILEE. THERE YOU WILL SEE HIM, JUST AS HE TOLD YOU. ’” 8 TREMBLING AND BEWILDERED, THE WOMEN WENT OUT AND FLED FROM THE TOMB. THEY SAID NOTHING TO ANYONE, BECAUSE THEY WERE AFRAID.

ROMANS 6 (NIV) 1 WHAT SHALL WE SAY, THEN? SHALL WE GO ON SINNING SO THAT GRACE MAY INCREASE? 2 BY NO MEANS! WE ARE THOSE WHO HAVE DIED TO SIN; HOW CAN WE LIVE IN IT ANY LONGER?

ROMANS 6 (NIV) 3 OR DON’T YOU KNOW THAT ALL OF US WHO WERE BAPTIZED INTO CHRIST JESUS WERE BAPTIZED INTO HIS DEATH? 4 WE WERE THEREFORE BURIED WITH HIM THROUGH BAPTISM INTO DEATH IN ORDER THAT, JUST AS CHRIST WAS RAISED FROM THE DEAD THROUGH THE GLORY OF THE FATHER, WE TOO MAY LIVE A NEW LIFE.
