John 19:28-30 The Death of Jesus


After this, Jesus, knowing that everything now had been completed,
so that the scripture had been fulfilled, said: ‘I am thirsty.’

A jug full of cheap wine was standing there, so they put  a sponge full of cheap wine on some hyssop and they lifted it up to his mouth.

When he had received the wine Jesus said: ‘It is completed
and bowing his head, he gave up the spirit.

Psalm 69:21

They gave me poison for food,
    and for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

Thanks be to thee,
my Lord Jesus Christ,
for all the benefits thou hast given me,
for all the pains and insults
thou hast borne for me.
O most merciful redeemer, friend and brother,
may I know thee more clearly,
love thee more dearly,
and follow thee more nearly, day by day.
Amen.
