Matthew 27:55-66
New American Standard Bible
55 (A)And many women were there watching from a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee while (B)caring for Him. 56 Among them were (C)Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and (D)the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
Jesus Is Buried
57 (E)Now when it was evening, a rich man from Arimathea came, named Joseph, who himself had also become a disciple of Jesus. 58 This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered it to be given to him. 59 And Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, 60 and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut out in the rock; and he rolled (F)a large stone against the entrance of the tomb and went away. 61 And (G)Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the tomb.
62 Now on the next day, that is, the day which is after (H)the preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered together with Pilate, 63 and they said, “Sir, we remember that when that deceiver was still alive, He said, ‘(I)After three days I am rising.’ 64 Therefore, give orders for the tomb to be made secure until the third day; otherwise, His disciples may come and steal Him, and say to the people, ‘He has risen from the dead,’ and the last deception will be worse than the first.” 65 Pilate said to them, “You have a (J)guard; go, make it as secure as you know how.” 66 And they went and made the tomb secure with (K)the guard, (L)sealing (M)the stone.

The Burial of Jesus(C)
57 As evening approached, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who had himself become a disciple of Jesus. 58 Going to Pilate, he asked for Jesus’ body, and Pilate ordered that it be given to him. 59 Joseph took the body, wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, 60 and placed it in his own new tomb(D) that he had cut out of the rock. He rolled a big stone in front of the entrance to the tomb and went away. 61 Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were sitting there opposite the tomb.
The Guard at the Tomb
62 The next day, the one after Preparation Day, the chief priests and the Pharisees went to Pilate. 63 “Sir,” they said, “we remember that while he was still alive that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise again.’(E) 64 So give the order for the tomb to be made secure until the third day. Otherwise, his disciples may come and steal the body(F) and tell the people that he has been raised from the dead. This last deception will be worse than the first.”
65 “Take a guard,”(G) Pilate answered. “Go, make the tomb as secure as you know how.” 66 So they went and made the tomb secure by putting a seal(H) on the stone(I) and posting the guard.(J)

Jesus Is Buried
42 (E)When evening had already come, since it was (F)the preparation day, that is, the day before the Sabbath, 43 Joseph of Arimathea came, a (G)prominent member of the Council, who was himself also (H)waiting for the kingdom of God; and he (I)gathered up courage and went in before Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus. 44 Now Pilate wondered if He was dead by this time, and summoning the centurion, he questioned him as to whether He was already dead. 45 And after learning this from (J)the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph. 46 Joseph bought a linen cloth, took Him down, wrapped Him in the linen cloth, and laid Him in a tomb which had been cut out in the rock; and he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb. 47 (K)Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses were watching to see where He was laid.
