* And , behold (5628 ), the veil of the temple was rent (5681 ) in twain from the top to the bottom ; and the earth did quake (5681 ), and the rocks rent (5681 ); * And the graves were opened (5681 ); and many bodies of the saints which slept (5772 ) arose (5681 ), * And came (5631 ) out of the graves after his resurrection , and went (5627 ) into the holy city , and appeared (5681 ) unto many . * Now when the centurion , and they that were with him , watching (5723 ) Jesus , saw (5631 ) the earthquake , and those things that were done (5637 ), they feared (5675 ) greatly , saying (5723 ), Truly this was (5713 ) the Son of God . * And many women were (5713 ) there beholding (5723 ) afar off , which followed (5656 ) Jesus from Galilee , ministering (5723 ) unto him : * Among which was (5713 ) Mary Magdalene , and Mary the mother of James and Joses , and the mother of Zebedees children . * When the even was come (5637 ), there came (5627 ) a rich man of Arimathaea , named Joseph , who also himself was Jesus disciple (5656 ): * He went (5631 ) to Pilate , and begged (5668 ) the body of Jesus . Then Pilate commanded (5656 ) the body to be delivered (5683 ). * And when Joseph had taken (5631 ) the body , he wrapped (5656 ) it in a clean linen cloth , * And laid (5656 ) it in his own new tomb , which he had hewn out (5656 ) in the rock : and he rolled (5660 ) a great stone to the door of the sepulchre , and departed (5627 ). * And there was (5713 ) Mary Magdalene , and the other Mary , sitting (5740 ) over against the sepulchre . * Now the next day , that followed (5748 ) the day of the preparation , the chief priests and Pharisees came together (5681 ) unto Pilate , * Saying (5723 ), Sir , we remember (5681 ) that that deceiver said (5627 ), while he was yet alive (5723 ), After three days I will rise again (5743 ). * Command (5657 ) therefore that the sepulchre be made sure (5683 ) until the third day , lest his disciples come (5631 ) by night , and steal him away (5661 ), and say (5632 ) unto the people , He is risen (5681 ) from the dead : so the last error shall be (5704 ) worse than the first . * Pilate said (5713 ) unto them , Ye have (5719 ) a watch : go your way (5720 ), make it as sure (5663 ) as ye can (5758 ). * So they went (5679 ), and made the sepulchre sure (5662 ), sealing (5660 ) the stone , and setting a watch .
