³⁸ And after these things Joseph of Arimathaea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly through fear of the Jews, demanded of Pilate that he might take the body of Jesus: and Pilate allowed it. He came therefore and took away the body of Jesus.

³⁹ And Nicodemus also, who at first came to Jesus by night, came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds [weight].

⁴⁰ They took therefore the body of Jesus and bound it up in linen with the spices, as it is the custom with the Jews to prepare for burial.

⁴¹ But there was in the place where he had been crucified a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had ever been laid.

⁴² There therefore, on account of the preparation of the Jews, because the tomb was near, they laid Jesus.

20 And on the first [day] of the week Mary of Magdala comes in early morn to the tomb, while it was still dark, and sees the stone taken away from the tomb.

² She runs therefore and comes to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, to whom Jesus was attached, and says to them, They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we know not where they have laid him.

³ Peter therefore went forth, and the other disciple, and came to the tomb.

⁴ And the two ran together, and the other disciple ran forward faster than Peter, and came first to the tomb,

⁵ and stooping down he sees the linen cloths lying; he did not however go in.

⁶ Simon Peter therefore comes, following him, and entered into the tomb, and sees the linen cloths lying,

⁷ and the handkerchief which was upon his head, not lying with the linen cloths, but folded up in a distinct place by itself.

⁸ Then entered in therefore the other disciple also who came first to the tomb, and he saw and believed;

⁹ for they had not yet known the scripture, that he must rise from among [the] dead.
