Luke

Luke 23:47–49

⁴⁷When the centurion saw what had happened, he gave glory to God, saying, “Surely this was a righteous man.ⁿ” ⁴⁸And when all the people who had gathered for this spectacle saw what had happened, they returned home beating their breasts. ⁴⁹But all those who knew Jesus, including the women who had followed Him from Galilee, stood at a distance watching these things.
