Matthew 27:63-65

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁶³ Saying: Sir, we have remembered, that that seducer said, while he was yet alive: After three days I will rise again.

⁶⁴ Command therefore the sepulchre to be guarded until the third day: lest perhaps his disciples come and steal him away, and say to the people: He is risen from the dead; and the last error shall be worse than the first.

⁶⁵ Pilate saith to them: You have a guard; go, guard it as you know.
