John 19:33-42 ▼

33 But when they came to Iesus, & sawe that he was dead alredye, they brake not his legges.

34 But one of the souldyers with a speare thruste hym into the syde, & foorthwith came there out blood and water.

35 And he that sawe it, bare recorde, and his recorde is true: & he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might beleue also.

36 For these thynges were done, that the scripture shoulde be fulfylled: Ye shall not breake a bone of hym.

37 And agayne another scripture saith: They shall loke on hym whom they pearsed.

38 After this, Ioseph of Aramathia, (which was a disciple of Iesus, but secretely, for feare of ye Iewes) besought Pilate that he myght take downe the body of Iesus. And Pilate gaue hym licence. He came therefore, and toke the dye of Iesus.

39 And there came also Nicodemus (whiche at the begynnyng came to Iesus by nyght) and brought of mirre and aloes myngled together, about an hundred pounde wayght.

40 Then toke they the body of Iesus, & wounde it in linnen clothes, with the odours, as the maner of the Iewes is to burie.

41 And in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a newe sepulchre, wherein was neuer man yet layde.

42 There layde they Iesus therfore, because of the preparyng of the Sabboth of the Iewes: for the sepulchre was nie at hande.
