47When some of those standing there heard this, they said, "He's calling Elijah."
48Immediately one of them ran and got a sponge. He filled it with wine vinegar, put it on a stick, and offered it to Jesus to drink. 49The rest said, "Now leave him alone. Let's see if Elijah comes to save him."
50And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit.
Matthew never mentions him speaking another word.

36One man ran, filled a sponge with wine vinegar, put it on a stick, and offered it to Jesus to drink. "Now leave him alone. Let's see if Elijah comes to take him down," he said.
37With a loud cry, Jesus breathed his last.
Neither does "Mark" from whom Matthew copied.
If you want to suggest that jesus' last words were
"AHHHHHH FUCKKKKKKKKKKKK!" I could go with that!
Nowhere does it say what he said was everything he said. his "loud cry" could have been that "it is finished" that was in another Gospel...maybe he said a few things before dying but the Gospels only relate what they believe is the most important one
