Jesus’ Death

19:28 After this Jesus, realizing that by this time81 everything was completed,82 said (in order to fulfill the scripture),83 “I am thirsty!”84 19:29 A jar full of sour wine85 was there, so they put a sponge soaked in sour wine on a branch of hyssop86 and lifted it87 to his mouth. 19:30 When88 he had received the sour wine, Jesus said, “It is completed!”89 Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.90

19:31 Then, because it was the day of preparation, so that the bodies should not stay on the crosses on the Sabbath91 (for that Sabbath was an especially important one),92 the Jewish leaders93 asked Pilate to have the victims’ legs94 broken95 and the bodies taken down.96 19:32 So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the two men who had been crucified97 with Jesus,98 first the one and then the other.99 19:33 But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. 19:34 But one of the soldiers pierced100 his side with a spear, and blood and water101 flowed out immediately. 19:35 And the person who saw it102 has testified (and his testimony is true, and he103 knows that he is telling the truth),104 so that you also may believe. 19:36 For these things happened so that the scripture would be fulfilled, “Not a bone of his will be broken.”105 19:37 And again another scripture says, “They will look on the one whom they have pierced.”106
