John 19:32-40

³²The soldiers therefore came, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other that was crucified with him:

³³but when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:

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

³⁵And he that hath seen hath borne witness, and his witness is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye also may believe.

³⁶For these things came to pass, that the scripture might be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.

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

³⁸And after these things Joseph of Arimathæa, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked of Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took away his body.

³⁹And there came also Nicodemus, he who at the first came to him by night, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds.

⁴⁰So they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as the custom of the Jews is to bury.
