John 19:31-37 And because it was the preparation, the Jews said: These bodies must not remain all night upon the cross: because the sabbath was dawning; and the day of that sabbath was a great day. And they requested of Pilate, that they should break the legs of those crucified, and take them down.

Murdock⁽ⁱ⁾ ³¹ And because it was the preparation, the Jews said: These bodies must not remain all night upon the cross: because the sabbath was dawning; and the day of that sabbath was a great day. And they requested of Pilate, that they should break the legs of those crucified, and take them down. ³² And the soldiers came, and broke the legs of the first, and of the other that was crucified with him. ³³ But when they came to Jesus, they saw that he was already dead; and they broke not his legs. ³⁴ But one of the soldiers thrust a spear into his side; and immediately there issued out blood and water. ³⁵ And he who saw it, hath testified: and his testimony is true: and he knoweth, that he speaketh the truth, that ye also may believe. ³⁶ For these things occurred, that the scripture might be fulfilled, which said: A bone of him shall not be broken. ³⁷ And again another scripture, which saith: They will look on him, whom they pierced.
