Jesus Is Buried

He was a member of the council, a good and righteous man, ⁵¹who had not consented to their decision and action; and he ^(B)was looking for the kingdom of God. ⁵²This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. ⁵³Then he took it down and wrapped it in a linen shroud and ^(C)laid him in a tomb cut in stone, ^(D)where no one had ever yet been laid. ⁵⁴It was the day of ^(E)Preparation, and the Sabbath was beginning.^[a] ⁵⁵^(F)The women ^(G)who had come with him from Galilee followed and saw the tomb and how his body was laid. ⁵⁶Then they returned and ^(H)prepared spices and ointments.

On the Sabbath they rested ^(I)according to the commandment.

English Standard Version

28 ^(A)The wicked flee when no one pursues,
    but ^(B)the righteous are bold as a lion.
²When a land transgresses, ^(C)it has many rulers,

    its stability will long continue.
³^(D)A poor man who oppresses the poor
    is a beating rain that leaves no food.
⁴Those who forsake the law ^(E)praise the wicked,

⁵Evil men ^(G)do not understand justice,
    but those who seek the Lord ^(H)understand it completely.
⁶^(I)Better is a poor man who ^(J)walks in his integrity
    than a rich man who is ^(K)crooked in his ways.
⁷The one who keeps the law is a son with understanding,
    but ^(L)a companion of gluttons shames his father.
⁸Whoever multiplies his wealth ^(M)by interest and profit^[a]
    ^(N)gathers it for him who is ^(O)generous to the poor.
⁹If one turns away his ear from hearing the law,

    ^(Q)will fall into his own pit,

    but he who ^(X)confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy.
¹⁴Blessed is the one who ^(Y)fears the Lord^[b] always,
    but whoever ^(Z)hardens his heart will fall into calamity.
