John 19:13-30

¹³Pilate, therefore, having heard this word, brought Jesus without — and he sat down upon the tribunal — to a place called, 'Pavement,' and in Hebrew, Gabbatha;

¹⁴and it was the preparation of the passover, and as it were the sixth hour, and he saith to the Jews, 'Lo, your king!'

¹⁵and they cried out, 'Take away, take away, crucify him;' Pilate saith to them, 'Your king shall I crucify?' the chief priests answered, 'We have no king except Caesar.'

¹⁶Then, therefore, he delivered him up to them, that he may be crucified, and they took Jesus and led him away,

¹⁷and bearing his cross, he went forth to the place called Place of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew Golgotha;

¹⁸where they crucified him, and with him two others, on this side, and on that side, and Jesus in the midst.

¹⁹And Pilate also wrote a title, and put it on the cross, and it was written, 'Jesus the Nazarene, the king of the Jews;'

²⁰this title, therefore, read many of the Jews, because the place was nigh to the city where Jesus was crucified, and it was having been written in Hebrew, in Greek, in Roman.

²¹The chief priests of the Jews said, therefore, to Pilate, 'Write not — The king of the Jews, but that one said, I am king of the Jews;'

²²Pilate answered, 'What I have written, I have written.'

²³The soldiers, therefore, when they did crucify Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to each soldier a part, also the coat, and the coat was seamless, from the top woven throughout,

²⁴they said, therefore, to one another, 'We may not rend it, but cast a lot for it, whose it shall be;' that the Writing might be fulfilled, that is saying, 'They divided my garments to themselves, and upon my raiment they did cast a lot;' the soldiers, therefore, indeed, did these things.

²⁵And there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary of Cleopas, and Mary the Magdalene;

²⁶Jesus, therefore, having seen his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he was loving, he saith to his mother, 'Woman, lo, thy son;'

²⁷afterward he saith to the disciple, 'Lo, thy mother;' and from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.

²⁸After this, Jesus knowing that all things now have been finished, that the Writing may be fulfilled, saith, 'I thirst;'

²⁹a vessel, therefore, was placed full of vinegar, and they having filled a sponge with vinegar, and having put it around a hyssop stalk, did put it to his mouth;

³⁰when, therefore, Jesus received the vinegar, he said, 'It hath been finished;' and having bowed the head, gave up the spirit.
