John 19:35-42

35 And he that saw, bare witnessing [thereof], and his witnessing is true; and he knoweth that he saith true things, that ye believe.
36 And these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, Ye shall not break a bone of him.
37 And again another scripture saith, They shall see in whom they pierced through.
38 But after these things Joseph of Arimathaea prayed Pilate, that he should take away the body of Jesus, for that he was a disciple of Jesus, but privily for dread of the Jews. And Pilate suffered. And so he came [Therefore he came], and took away the body of Jesus.
39 And Nicodemus came also, that had come to him first by night, and brought a medley of myrrh and aloes, as it were an hundred pound. [Soothly and Nicodemus came, that had come first to Jesus by night, bearing a medley of myrrh and aloes, as an hundred pound.]
40 And they took the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen clothes with sweet smelling ointments [and bound it in linen clothes with sweet ointments, or spices], as it is [the] custom to Jews for to bury.
41 And in the place where he was crucified, was a garden, and in the garden a new grave, in which yet no man was laid. [Soothly in the place where he was crucified, was a yard, and in the yard a new grave, in which not yet any man was put.]
42 Therefore there they put Jesus, for the vigil of Jews? feast [for the making ready of Jews], for the sepulchre was nigh.
