John 19:17-30

171They tookG3880 JesusG2424, thereforeG3767, and He wentG1831 out, 23bearingG941 His ownG1438 crossG4716, to the place calledG3004 4the PlaceG5117 of a SkullG2898, whichG3739 is calledG3004 5in 6HebrewG1447, GolgothaG1115. 18ThereG3699 they crucifiedG4717 Him, and with Him 7twoG1417 otherG243 menG243, one on eitherG1782 sideG1782, and JesusG2424 in betweenG3319. 19PilateG4091 alsoG2532 wroteG1125 an inscriptionG5102 and putG5087 it on the crossG4716. It was writtenG1125, “8JESUSG2424 THE NAZARENEG3480, 9THE KINGG935 OF THE JEWSG2453.” 20ThereforeG3767 manyG4183 of the JewsG2453 readG314 thisG3778 inscriptionG5102, for the placeG5117 whereG3699 JesusG2424 was crucifiedG4717 was nearG1451 the cityG4172; and it was writtenG1125 10in 11HebrewG1447, LatinG4515 and in GreekG1676. 21SoG3767 the chiefG749 priestsG749 of the JewsG2453 were sayingG3004 to PilateG4091, “Do not writeG1125, ‘12The KingG935 of the JewsG2453’; but that He saidG3004, ‘I amG1510 13KingG935 of the JewsG2453.’” 22PilateG4091 answeredG611, “14WhatG3739 I have writtenG1125 I have writtenG1125.”

23ThenG3767 15the soldiersG4757, whenG3753 they had crucifiedG4717 JesusG2424, tookG2983 His outerG2440 garmentsG2440 and madeG4160 16fourG5064 partsG3313, a partG3313 to everyG1538 soldierG4757 and also the 17tunicG5509; nowG1161 the tunicG5509 was seamlessG690, wovenG5307 18in oneG3650 pieceG3650. 24SoG3767 they saidG3004 to oneG240 anotherG240, “19Let us not tearG4977 it, but castG2975 lotsG2975 for it, to decide whoseG5101 it shall be”; 20this was to fulfillG4137 the ScriptureG1124: “They 21dividedG1266 My outerG2440 garmentsG2440 amongG1266 them, and for My clothingG2441 they castG906 22lotsG2819.” 25ThereforeG3767 the soldiersG4757 didG4160 theseG3778 thingsG3778.

23But standingG2476 by the crossG4716 of JesusG2424 were 24His motherG3384, and His mother’sG3384 sisterG79, MaryG3137 the wife of ClopasG2832, and 25MaryG3137 MagdaleneG3094. 26When JesusG2424 thenG3767 sawG3708 His motherG3384, and 26the discipleG3101 whomG3739 He lovedG25 standingG3936 nearbyG3936, He saidG3004 to His motherG3384, “27WomanG1135, beholdG2396, your sonG5207!” 27ThenG1534 He saidG3004 to the discipleG3101, “BeholdG2396, your motherG3384!” From that hourG5610 the discipleG3101 tookG2983 her into 28his ownG2398 household.

28AfterG3326 thisG3778, JesusG2424, 29knowingG3609 that allG3956 thingsG3956 had alreadyG2235 been accomplishedG5055, 30to fulfillG5048 the ScriptureG1124, saidG3004, “31I amG1372 thirstyG1372.” 29A jarG4632 fullG3324 of sourG3690 wineG3690 was standingG2749 there; soG3767 32they putG4060 a spongeG4699 fullG3324 of the sourG3690 wineG3690 upon a branch of hyssopG5301 and broughtG4374 it up to His mouthG4750. 30ThereforeG3767 whenG3753 JesusG2424 had receivedG2983 the sourG3690 wineG3690, He saidG3004, “33It is finishedG5055!” And He bowedG2827 His headG2776 and 34gaveG3860 up His spiritG4151.
