John 19:28-30

EasyEnglish Bible

Jesus dies

²⁸ After this, Jesus knew that everything was now finished. Then he said, ‘I am thirsty.’ He said this so that things would happen in the way the Bible already said.^{[a] 29} There was a pot full of cheap wine there. So someone put a piece of cloth into the wine. They fixed the cloth to the end of a branch. The branch was from a plant called hyssop. Then they lifted the cloth up to Jesus' mouth. ³⁰ Jesus drank the wine. Then he said, ‘Everything is finished.’ He bent his head down and he let his spirit go.
