John 19:26–35

²⁶When Jesus then saw His mother, and ^athe disciple whom He loved standing nearby, He ^*said to His mother, “^bWoman, behold, your son!”

²⁷Then He ^*said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” From that hour the disciple took her into ^ahis home.

Scripture Fulfilled—It Is Finished

²⁸After this, Jesus, ^aknowing that all things had already been finished, ^bin order ¹to finish the Scripture, ^*said, “^cI am thirsty.”

²⁹A jar full of sour wine was standing there; so ^athey put a sponge full of the sour wine upon a branch of hyssop and brought it up to His mouth.

³⁰Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “^aIt is finished!” And bowing His head, He ^bgave up His spirit.

³¹Then the Jews, because it was ^athe day of Preparation, so that ^bthe bodies would not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (¹for that Sabbath was a ^chigh day), asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

³²So the soldiers came, and broke the legs of the first man and of the other who was ^acrucified 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 ^ablood and water came out.

³⁵And he who has seen has ^aborne witness, and his witness is true; and he knows that he is telling the truth, so that you also may believe.
