John 19:31-37 Then the Jews, in order that the bodies may not remain on the cross during the Sabbath, since it was the Preparation (for the day of that Sabbath was a high day), asked Pilate, that they might break their legs, and take them down.

Godbey⁽ⁱ⁾ ³¹ Then the Jews, in order that the bodies may not remain on the cross during the Sabbath, since it was the Preparation (for the day of that Sabbath was a high day), asked Pilate, that they might break their legs, and take them down. ³² Then the soldiers came, and broke the legs of the first one, and of the other one being crucified along with Him. ³³ But having come to Jesus, when they saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs: ³⁴ but one of the soldiers pierced His side through with the spear, and immediately blood and water came out. ³⁵ And He having seen hath testified, and his testimony is true: and he knows that he speaks the truth, that you also may believe. ³⁶ For these things took place, in order that the Scripture might be fulfilled, A bone of Him shall not be broken. ³⁷ Again another Scripture says, They shall look on Him, whom they have pierced.
