John 19:17-30

17And he went out, bearing his cross, to the place called [place] of a skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha;

18where they crucified him, and with him two others, [one] on this side, and [one] on that, and Jesus in the middle.

19And Pilate wrote a title also and put it on the cross. But there was written: Jesus the Nazaraean, the King of the Jews.

20This title therefore many of the Jews read, for the place of the city where Jesus was crucified was near; and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, Latin.

21The chief priests of the Jews therefore said to Pilate, Do not write, The king of the Jews, but that he said, I am king of the Jews.

22Pilate answered, What I have written, I have written.

23The soldiers therefore, when they had crucified Jesus, took his clothes, and made four parts, to each soldier a part, and the body-coat; but the body-coat was seamless, woven through the whole from the top.

24They said therefore to one another, Let us not rend it, but let us cast lots for it, whose it shall be; that the scripture might be fulfilled which says, They parted my garments among themselves, and on my vesture they cast lots. The soldiers therefore did these things.

25And by the cross of Jesus stood his mother, and the sister of his mother, Mary the [wife] of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala.

26Jesus therefore, seeing his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, says to his mother, Woman, behold thy son.

27Then he says unto the disciple, Behold thy mother. And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.

28After this, Jesus, knowing that all things were now finished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, says, I thirst.

29There was a vessel therefore there full of vinegar, and having filled a sponge with vinegar, and putting hyssop round it, they put it up to his mouth.

30When therefore Jesus had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished; and having bowed his head, he delivered up his spirit.
