Matthew 27:52-66

52AndG2532 the gravesG3588G3419 were openedG455; andG2532 manyG4183 bodiesG4983 of the saintsG40 which sleptG2837 aroseG1453, 53AndG2532 came outG1831 ofG1537 the gravesG3588G3419 afterG3326 hisG846 resurrectionG3588G1454, and wentG1525 intoG1519 theG4172 holyG40 cityG4172, andG2532 appearedG1718 unto manyG4183. 54Now whenG1161 the centurionG1543, andG2532 they that wereG3588 withG3326 himG846, watchingG5083 JesusG3588G2424, sawG3708 the earthquakeG3588G4578, andG2532 those things that were doneG1096, they fearedG5399 greatlyG4970, sayingG3004, TrulyG230 thisG3778 wasG1510 the SonG5207 of GodG2316. 55AndG1161 manyG4183 womenG1135 wereG1510 thereG1563 beholdingG2334 afarG3113 offG575, whichG3748 followedG190 JesusG3588G2424 fromG575 GalileeG3588G1056, ministeringG1247 unto himG846: 56AmongG1722 whichG3739 wasG1510 MaryG3137 MagdaleneG3588G3094, andG2532 MaryG3137 the motherG3384 of JamesG3588G2385 andG2532 JosesG2500, andG2532 the motherG3588G3384 of Zebedee’sG2199 childrenG3588G5207. 57WhenG1161 the evenG3798 was comeG1096, there cameG2064 a richG4145 manG444 ofG575 ArimathæaG707, namedG5122 JosephG2501, whoG3739 alsoG2532 himselfG846 wasG3100 Jesus’G3588G2424 discipleG3100: 58HeG3778 went toG4334 PilateG3588G4091, and beggedG154 the bodyG3588G4983 of JesusG3588G2424. ThenG5119 PilateG3588G4091 commandedG2753 the bodyG3588G4983 to be deliveredG591. 59And whenG2532 JosephG2501 had takenG2983 the bodyG3588G4983, he wrappedG1794 itG846 inG1794 a cleanG2513 linen clothG4616, 60AndG2532 laidG5087 itG846 inG1722 his ownG846 newG2537 tombG3419, whichG3739 he had hewn outG2998 inG1722 the rockG3588G4073: andG2532 he rolledG4351 aG3037 greatG3173 stoneG3037 to the doorG3588G2374 of the sepulchreG3588G3419, and departedG565. 61AndG1161 thereG1563 wasG1510 MaryG3137 MagdaleneG3588G3094, andG2532 the otherG243 MaryG3137, sittingG2521 over againstG561 the sepulchreG3588G5028.

62NowG1161 the next dayG1887, thatG3748 followedG1510 the day of the preparationG3588G3904, the chief priestsG3588G749 andG2532 PhariseesG3588G5330 came togetherG4863 untoG4314 PilateG4091, 63SayingG3004, SirG2962, we rememberG3403 thatG3754 thatG1565 deceiverG4108 saidG3004, while he wasG2198 yetG2089 aliveG2198, AfterG3326 threeG5140 daysG2250 I will rise againG1453. 64CommandG2753 thereforeG3767 thatG805 the sepulchreG3588G5028 be made sureG805 untilG2193 theG3588G2250 thirdG5154 dayG3588G2250, lestG3379 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 comeG2064 by nightG3571, and stealG2813 him awayG846, andG2532 sayG3004 unto the peopleG3588G2992, He is risenG1453 fromG575 the deadG3588G3498: soG2532 the lastG3588G2078 errorG4106 shall beG1510 worse thanG5501 the firstG3588G4413. 65PilateG3588G4091 saidG5346 unto themG846, Ye haveG2192 a watchG2892: go your wayG5217, makeG805 it as sureG805 asG5613 ye canG1492. 66SoG1161 theyG3588 wentG4198, and madeG805 the sepulchreG3588G5028 sureG805, sealingG4972 the stoneG3588G3037, and settingG3326 a watchG3588G2892.
