Luke 23:45-55

45 while the sun's light failed. And ¹the curtain of the temple was torn in two.

46 Then Jesus, ²calling out with a loud voice, said, "Father, ³into your hands I ⁴commit my spirit!" And having said this ⁵he breathed his last.

47 Now ⁶when the centurion saw what had taken place, ⁷he praised God, saying, "Certainly this man was innocent!"

48 And all the crowds that had assembled for this spectacle, when they saw what had taken place, returned home ⁸beating their breasts.

49 And all ⁹his acquaintances and ¹⁰the women who had followed him from Galilee ¹¹stood at a distance watching these things.

Jesus Is Buried

50 ¹²Now there was a man named Joseph, from the Jewish town of Arimathea. He was a member of the council, a good and righteous man,

51 who had not consented to their decision and action; and he ¹³was looking for the kingdom of God.

52 This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

53 Then he took it down and wrapped it in a linen shroud and ¹⁴laid him in a tomb cut in stone, ¹⁵where no one had ever yet been laid.

54 It was the day of ¹⁶Preparation, and the Sabbath was beginning.^[a]

55 ¹⁷The women ¹⁸who had come with him from Galilee followed and saw the tomb and how his body was laid.
