Luke 23:45-55

45 And the sun was darkened , and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.
46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said , Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost .
47 Now when the centurion saw what was done , he glorified God, saying , Certainly this was a righteous man.
48 And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done , smote their breasts, and returned .
49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.
50 And, behold , there was a man named Joseph, a counsellor; and he was a good * man, and a just:
51 (The same had not consented * to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews * : who also himself waited for the kingdom of God.
52 This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.
53 And he took it down , and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid .
54 And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on .
55 And the women also, which came * with him from Galilee, followed after , and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid .
