| 24. Formal Translation Therefore they said to one another, “Let us not tear it, but let us cast lots for it to see whose it will be,” so that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which says, “They divided my garments among themselves, and for my clothing they cast lots.” Therefore, the soldiers did these things. |
| 24. Dynamic Translation So they said to each other, “Let us not rip it, but let us cast lots for it to find out whose it will be.” This happened so that the Scripture would be fulfilled that says, “They divided my clothes among themselves, and for my clothing they cast lots.” That is what the soldiers did, casting lots. |
