John 19:28-37
After this, when Jesus knew that everything was now finished that the Scripture might be fulfilled, he said,“ I’m thirsty.”A jar full of sour wine was sitting there; so they fixed a sponge full of sour wine on a hyssop branch and held it up to his mouth.When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said,“ It is finished.” Then bowing his head, he gave up his spirit.Since it was the preparation day, the Jews did not want the bodies to remain on the cross on the Sabbath( for that Sabbath was a special day). They requested that Pilate have the men’s legs broken and that their bodies be taken away.So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man and of the other one who had been crucified with him.When they came to Jesus, they did not break his legs since they saw that he was already dead.But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once blood and water came out.He who saw this has testified so that you also may believe. His testimony is true, and he knows he is telling the truth.For these things happened so that the Scripture would be fulfilled: Not one of his bones will be broken.Also, another Scripture says: They will look at the one they pierced.

Isaiah 10:12-15
But when the Lord finishes all his work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, he will say,“ I will punish the king of Assyria for his arrogant acts and the proud look in his eyes.”For he said: I have done this by my own strength and wisdom, for I am clever. I abolished the borders of nations and plundered their treasures; like a mighty warrior, I subjugated the inhabitants.My hand has reached out, as if into a nest, to seize the wealth of the nations. Like one gathering abandoned eggs, I gathered the whole earth. No wing fluttered; no beak opened or chirped.Does an ax exalt itself above the one who chops with it? Does a saw magnify itself above the one who saws with it? It would be like a rod waving the ones who lift it! It would be like a staff lifting the one who isn’t wood!
