John 19:24Easy To Read VersionSo the soldiers said to each other, “We should not tear this into parts \{to divide it\}. We should choose lots {\cf2\super [247]} to see who will get it.” This happened so that it would be like the Scripture {\cf2\super [248]} said: See the chapter |

The words that the prophets {\cf2\super [268]} wrote \{about Jesus\} were read to the Jews every Sabbath day, {\cf2\super [269]} but they did not understand. The Jews condemned Jesus. When they did this, they made the words of the prophets come true!
