52 Cet homme se rendit vers Pilate, et demanda le corps de Jésus.

53 Il le descendit de la croix, l’enveloppa d’un linceul, et le déposa dans un sépulcre taillé dans le roc, où personne n’avait encore été mis.

54 C’était le jour de la préparation, et le sabbat allait commencer.

55 Les femmes qui étaient venues de la Galilée avec Jésus accompagnèrent Joseph, virent le sépulcre et la manière dont le corps de Jésus y fut déposé,

56 et, s’en étant retournées, elles préparèrent des aromates et des parfums. Puis elles se reposèrent le jour du sabbat, selon la loi.
