John 19 : 31 - 37
31 | Therefore, because it was the Preparation Day, that the bodies should not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. |
32 | Then the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with Him. |
33 | But when they came to Jesus and 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 may believe. |
36 | For these things were done that the Scripture should be fulfilled, "Not one of His bones shall be broken." |
37 | And again another Scripture says, "They shall look on Him whom they pierced." |
