Mark 15:42-47

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴² And when evening was now come, (because it was the Parasceve, that is, the day before the sabbath,)

⁴³ Joseph of Arimathea, a noble counsellor, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, came and went in boldly to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.

⁴⁴ But Pilate wondered that he should be already dead. And sending for the centurion, he asked him if he were already dead.

⁴⁵ And when he had understood it by the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.

⁴⁶ And Joseph buying fine linen, and taking him down, wrapped him up in the fine linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewed out of a rock. And he rolled a stone to the door of the sepulchre.

⁴⁷ And Mary Magdalen, and Mary the mother of Joseph, beheld where he was laid.
