Explanation:
If your target is Jesus' last words in the New Testament (when he died on the cross) - then U should check the book's Hebrew translation! (I'm not sure it is "ze nigmar" - זה נגמר, however it could be the same, as in modern hebrew). If you give me the place in the N.T., I can tell you exactly!
