John 19:33 DBY

³¹  The Jews therefore, that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath, for it was [the] preparation, (for the day of that sabbath was a great [day],) demanded of Pilate that their legs might be broken and they taken away.

³²  The soldiers therefore came and broke the legs of the first and of the other that had been crucified with him;

³³  but coming 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 with a spear, and immediately there came out blood and water.

³⁵  And he who saw it bears witness, and his witness is true, and he knows that he says true that ye also may believe.
