And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward for our deeds, but this man has done nothing wrong."

He said to Jesus, "Lord, remember me when you come into your kingdom."

Jesus said to him, "Assuredly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise."

It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour.

The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two.

Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!" Having said this, he breathed his last.

When the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, "Certainly this was a righteous man."

All the multitudes that came together to see this, when they saw the things that were done, returned home beating their breasts.

All his acquaintances, and the women who followed with him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching these things.

Behold, a man named Joseph, who was a member of the council, a good and righteous man

(he had not consented to their counsel and deed), from Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, who was also waiting for the Kingdom of God:

this man went to Pilate, and asked for Jesus' body.

He took it down, and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that was cut in stone, where no one had ever been laid.

It was the day of the Preparation, and the Sabbath was drawing near.

The women, who had come with him out of Galilee, followed after, and saw the tomb, and how his body was laid.

They returned, and prepared spices and ointments. On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
