John 19:28-41

²⁸After this, Jesus, knowing that all things were now finished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, says, I thirst.

²⁹There was a vessel therefore there full of vinegar, and having filled a sponge with vinegar, and putting hyssop round it, they put it up to his mouth.

³⁰When therefore Jesus had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished; and having bowed his head, he delivered up his spirit.

³¹The Jews therefore, that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath, for it was the preparation, (for the day of that sabbath was a great day,) demanded of Pilate that their legs might be broken and they taken away.

³²The soldiers therefore came and broke the legs of the first and of the other that had been crucified with him;

³³but coming to Jesus, when they saw that he was already dead they did not break his legs,

³⁴but one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and immediately there came out blood and water.

³⁵And he who saw it bears witness, and his witness is true, and he knows that he says true that ye also may believe.

³⁶For these things took place that the scripture might be fulfilled, Not a bone of him shall be broken.

³⁷And again another scripture says, They shall look on him whom they pierced.

³⁸And after these things Joseph of Arimathaea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly through fear of the Jews, demanded of Pilate that he might take the body of Jesus: and Pilate allowed it. He came therefore and took away the body of Jesus.

³⁹And Nicodemus also, who at first came to Jesus by night, came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds weight.

⁴⁰They took therefore the body of Jesus and bound it up in linen with the spices, as it is the custom with the Jews to prepare for burial.

⁴¹But there was in the place where he had been crucified a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had ever been laid.
