Matthew 27:64-66

Modern English Version

⁶⁴ Therefore command that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest His disciples come by night and steal Him away, and tell the people, ‘He has risen from the dead.’ The last deception will be worse than the first.”

⁶⁵ Pilate said to them, “You have a guard. Go your way. Make it as secure as you can.” ⁶⁶ So they went and made the tomb secure by sealing the stone and posting the guard.
