*
After this ,
Jesus knowing that all things were now finished ,
in order that the Scripture might be accomplished ,
saith ,
I thirst .
*
A vessel was brought full of vinegar ;
and putting a sponge filled with vinegar upon a stalk of hyssop ,
they raised it to his mouth .
*
When therefore he had received the vinegar ,
he said ,
It is finished !
and he bowed his head ,
and yielded up his spirit .
*
The Jews therefore ,
because it was the preparation ,
that the bodies might not remain upon the cross on the sabbath ,
for that sabbath was a great day ,
besought Pilate that their legs might be broken ,
and that they might be taken away .
*
So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first ,
and of the other who was crucified with him .
*
But when they came to Jesus ,
and saw that he was already dead ,
they broke not his legs ;
*
but one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side ,
and immediately there came out blood and water .
*
And he that hath seen hath borne witness ,
and his witness is true ;
and he knoweth that he saith what is true ,
that ye also may believe .
*
For these things came to pass ,
that the scripture might be fulfilled , "
A bone of him shall not be broken ."
*
And again another scripture saith , "
They shall look on him whom they pierced ."
