Mark 15:44-46
New English Translation

44 Pilate was surprised that he was already dead. He[a] called the centurion[b] and asked him if he had been dead for some time. 45 When Pilate[c] was informed by the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph. 46 After Joseph[d] bought a linen cloth[e] and took down the body, he wrapped it in the linen and placed it in a tomb cut out of the rock.[f] Then[g] he rolled a stone across the entrance[h] of the tomb.
