John 19:27-41 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

27. Then He said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother!" From that hour the disciple took her into his own household.

28. After this, Jesus, knowing that all things had already been accomplished, to fulfill the Scripture, said, "I am thirsty."

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

30. Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, "It is finished!" And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit.

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

32. So the soldiers came, and broke the legs of the first man and of the other who was crucified with Him;

33. but coming to Jesus, when they saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs.

34. But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.

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

36. For these things came to pass to fulfill the Scripture, "Not a bone of Him shall be broken."

37. And again another Scripture says, "They shall look on Him whom they pierced."

38. After these things Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but a secret one for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate granted permission. So he came and took away His body.

39. Nicodemus, who had first come to Him by night, also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds weight.

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

41. Now in the place where He was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid.
