37And again another scripture saith, They shall see in whom they pierced through.
38But after these things Joseph of Arimathaea prayed Pilate, that he should take away the body of Jesus, for that he was a disciple of Jesus, but privily for dread of the Jews. And Pilate suffered (him). And so he came, and took away the body of Jesus. (But after these things Joseph of Arimathaea beseeched Pilate, so that he could take away the body of Jesus, because he was a disciple of Jesus, but privately, or in secret, for fear of the Jews. And Pilate allowed him. And so he came, and took away the body of Jesus.)
39And Nicodemus came also, that had come to him first by night, or that had come to Jesus first in the night, (or who had first come to Jesus in the night), and brought a meddling, (or a medley, or a mixture), of myrrh and aloes, as it were an hundred pound.
40And they took (down) the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen clothes with sweet smelling ointments or spices, as it is (the) custom to Jews for to bury (or as is the custom of the Jews for burial).
41And in the place where he was crucified, was a garden, and in the garden a new grave (or and in the garden was a new tomb), in which yet no man was laid or in which not yet any man was put.
42Therefore there they put Jesus, for the vigil of (the) Jews’ feast, for the sepulchre was nigh. (And so they put Jesus there, because it was the eve of the Jews’ Feast, or Festival, and the tomb was nearby.) Therefore there for the making ready (day) of (the) Jews, for the sepulchre was nigh, they put Jesus. (And so because it was the preparation day of the Jews, and the tomb was nearby, they put Jesus there.)
