Luke 23:45-55

45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple rent in the midst.

46 And Jesus, having cried with a loud voice, said, Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit. And having said this, he expired.

47 Now the centurion, seeing what took place, glorified God, saying, In very deed this man was just.

48 And all the crowds who had come together to that sight, having seen the things that took place, returned, beating [their] breasts.

49 And all those who knew him stood afar off, the women also who had followed him from Galilee, beholding these things.

50 And behold, a man named Joseph, who was a councillor, a good man and a just

51 (this [man] had not assented to their counsel and deed), of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, who also waited, [himself also,] for the kingdom of God

52 -- he having gone to Pilate begged the body of Jesus;

53 and having taken it down, wrapped it in fine linen and placed him in a tomb hewn in the rock, where no one had ever been laid.

54 And it was preparation day, and [the] sabbath twilight was coming on.

55 And women, who had come along with him out of Galilee, having followed, saw the sepulchre and how his body was placed.
