John 19:31-33
1599 Geneva Bible
31 [a]The Jews then (because it was the Preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath day: for that Sabbath was an high day) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken down.
32 Then came the soldiers and brake the legs of the first, and of the other, which was crucified with Jesus.
33 But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs.
