John 19:31-42

31NowG3767 thenG3767, sinceG1893 it was 1the dayG3904 ofG3904 preparationG3904, to preventG3363 2the bodiesG4983 from remainingG3306 on the crossG4716 on the SabbathG4521 (3for that SabbathG4521 was a 4highG3173 dayG2250), the JewsG2453 requestedG2065 of PilateG4091 that their legsG4628 be brokenG2608, and the bodies be takenG142 awayG142. 32SoG3767 the soldiersG4757 cameG2064 and brokeG2608 the legsG4628 of the firstG4413 manG4413, and of the otherG243 who was 5crucifiedG4957 with Him; 33but after they cameG2064 to JesusG2424, whenG5613 they sawG3708 that He was alreadyG2235 deadG2348, they did not breakG2608 His legsG4628. 34YetG235 oneG1520 of the soldiersG4757 piercedG3572 His sideG4125 with a spearG3057, and immediatelyG2117 6bloodG129 and waterG5204 cameG1831 outG1831. 35And he who has seenG3708 has 7testifiedG3140, and his testimonyG3141 is trueG228; and he knowsG3609 that he is tellingG3004 the truthG227, soG2443 thatG2443 you alsoG2532 may believeG4100. 36For theseG3778 thingsG3778 tookG1096 placeG1096 8soG2443 thatG2443 the ScriptureG1124 would be fulfilledG4137: “9Not a boneG3747 of Him shall be 10brokenG4937.” 37And againG3825 anotherG2087 ScriptureG1124 saysG3004, “11They will lookG3708 at Him whomG3739 they piercedG1574.”

38NowG1161 12afterG3326 theseG3778 thingsG3778 JosephG2501 of ArimatheaG707, beingG1510 a discipleG3101 of JesusG2424, but a 13secretG2928 one for 14fearG5401 of the 15JewsG2453, requestedG2065 of PilateG4091 that he might takeG142 awayG142 the bodyG4983 of JesusG2424; and PilateG4091 grantedG2010 permissionG2010. SoG3767 he cameG2064 and tookG142 awayG142 His bodyG4983. 3916NicodemusG3530, who had firstG4413 comeG2064 to Him by nightG3571, alsoG2532 cameG2064, 17bringingG5342 a 18mixtureG3395 of 19myrrhG4666 and aloesG250, aboutG5613 a 2021hundredG1540 litrasG3046 weight. 40SoG3767 they tookG2983 the bodyG4983 of JesusG2424 and 22boundG1210 it in 23linenG3608 wrappingsG3608 with the spicesG759, as is the burialG1779 customG1485 of the JewsG2453. 41NowG1161 in the placeG5117 whereG3699 He was crucifiedG4717 there was a gardenG2779, and in the gardenG2779 was a 24newG2537 tombG3419 25in whichG3739 noG3762 oneG3762 had yetG3764 beenG1510 laidG5087. 42ThereforeG3767 becauseG1223 of the JewishG2453 dayG3904 ofG3904 26preparationG3904, sinceG3754 the tombG3419 was 27nearbyG1451, they laidG5087 JesusG2424 thereG1563.
