Mark 15:37-16:8

21st Century King James Version

³⁷ And Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.

³⁸ And the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom.

³⁹ And when the centurion who stood opposite Him saw that He so cried out and gave up the ghost, he said, “Truly, this Man was the Son of God!”

⁴⁰ There were also women looking on afar off, among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the Less and of Joses, and Salome

⁴¹ (who also, when He was in Galilee, had followed Him and ministered unto Him), and many other women who came up with Him unto Jerusalem.

⁴² And now when the evening had come, because it was the Preparation (that is, the day before the Sabbath),

⁴³ Joseph of Arimathea, an honorable council member who also was waiting for the Kingdom of God, came and went in boldly unto Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

⁴⁴ And Pilate wondered if He were already dead; and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether He had been any while dead.

⁴⁵ And when he learned it from the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.

⁴⁶ And Joseph bought fine linen, and took Him down and wrapped Him in the linen. And he laid Him in a sepulcher which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulcher.

⁴⁷ And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where He was laid.

16 And when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint Him.

² And very early in the morning on the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulcher at the rising of the sun.

³ And they said among themselves, “Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulcher?”

⁴ And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away, for it was very large.

⁵ And entering into the sepulcher, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were frightened.

⁶ And he said unto them, “Be not afraid. Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen! He is not here. Behold the place where they laid Him.

⁷ But go your way. Tell His disciples and Peter that He goeth before you into Galilee. There shall ye see Him, as He said unto you.”

⁸ And they went out quickly and fled from the sepulcher, for they trembled and were amazed; neither said they any thing to any man, for they were afraid.
