When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing beside her, he said to his mother, “Woman, here is your son.”
(John 19:26)

 
The Fourth Word:
 At three o’clock Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”[a]
(Mark 15:34)


The Fifth Word:
After this, when Jesus knew that all was now finished, he said (in order to fulfill the scripture), “I am thirsty.”
