Matthew 27:63-66

63They said, “Sir, we remember how that deceiver said while he was still alive, ‘After three days I will be brought back to life.’

64Therefore, give the order to make the tomb secure until the third day. Otherwise, his disciples may steal him and say to the people, ‘He has been brought back to life.’ Then the last deception will be worse than the first.”

65Pilate told them, “You have the soldiers you want for guard duty. Go and make the tomb as secure as you know how.”

66So they went to secure the tomb. They placed a seal on the stone and posted the soldiers on guard duty.
