17 And they took Jesus and led away; so He went out, bearing His own cross, to the spot called The Place of the Skull--in Hebrew it is called Golgotha. 18 There they crucified Him, and with Him two others--one on either side and Jesus between them. 19 And Pilate also wrote a title (an inscription on a placard) and put it on the cross. And the writing was: Jesus the Nazarene, the King of the Jews. 20 And many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, in Greek. 21 Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, Do not write, The King of the Jews, but, He said, I am King of the Jews. 22 Pilate replied, What I have written, I have written. 23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took His garments and made four parts, one share for each soldier, and also the tunic (the long shirtlike undergarment). But the tunic was seamless, woven from the top throughout. 24 So they said to one another, Let us not tear it, but let us cast lots to decide whose it shall be. This was to fulfill the Scripture, They parted My garments among them, and for My clothing they cast lots. So the soldiers did these things. 25 But by the cross of Jesus stood His mother, His mother's sister, Mary the of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 So Jesus, seeing His mother there, and the disciple whom He loved standing near, said to His mother, woman, See, your son! 27 Then He said to the disciple, See, your mother! And from that hour, the disciple took her into his own . 28 After this, Jesus, knowing that all was now finished (ended), said in fulfillment of the Scripture, I thirst. 29 A vessel (jar) full of sour wine (vinegar) was placed there, so they put a sponge soaked in the sour wine on hyssop, and held it to mouth. 30 When Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, It is finished! And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit. 31 Since it was the day of Preparation, in order to prevent the bodies from hanging on the cross on the Sabbath--for that Sabbath was a very solemn and important one--the Jews requested Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies taken away. 32 So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first one, and of the other who had been crucified with Him. 33 But when they came to Jesus and 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 (flowed) out. 35 And he who saw it (the eyewitness) gives this evidence, and his testimony is true; and he knows that he tells the truth, that you may believe also. 36 For these things took place, that the Scripture might be fulfilled (verified, carried out), Not one of His bones shall be broken; 37 And again another Scripture says, They shall look on Him Whom they have pierced. 38 And after this, Joseph of Arimathea--a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews--asked Pilate to let him take away the body of Jesus. And Pilate granted him permission. So he came and took away His body. 39 And Nicodemus also, who first had come to Jesus by night, came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds. 40 So they took Jesus' body and bound it in linen cloths with the spices (aromatics), as is the Jews' customary way to prepare for burial. 41 Now there was a garden in the place where He was crucified, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid. 42 So there, because of the Jewish day of Preparation since the tomb was near by, they laid Jesus.
