Mark 15:43-44

New American Standard Bible

⁴³ Joseph of Arimathea came, a ^(A)prominent member of the Council, who was himself also ^(B)waiting for the kingdom of God; and he ^(C)gathered up courage and went in before Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus. ⁴⁴ Now Pilate wondered if He was dead by this time, and summoning the centurion, he questioned him as to whether He was already dead.
