Mark 15:43-45

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴³ Joseph of Arimathea, a noble counsellor, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, came and went in boldly to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.

⁴⁴ But Pilate wondered that he should be already dead. And sending for the centurion, he asked him if he were already dead.

⁴⁵ And when he had understood it by the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.
