The Closely Guarded Tomb
62 The next day, which followed the preparation day, the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered before Pilate(A) 63 and said, “Sir, we remember that while this deceiver was still alive he said, ‘After three days I will rise again.’(B) 64 So give orders that the tomb be made secure until the third day. Otherwise, his disciples(C) may come, steal him, and tell the people, ‘He has been raised from the dead,’ and the last deception will be worse than the first.”
65 “Take[a] guards,” Pilate told them. “Go and make it as secure as you know how.” 66 They went and secured the tomb by setting a seal on the stone and placing the guards.(D)

Isaiah 53:8-12
Christian Standard Bible
8 He was taken away because of oppression and judgment,
and who considered his fate?[a]
For he was cut off from the land of the living;
he was struck because of my people’s rebellion.
9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked,
but he was with a rich man at his death,(A)
because he had done no violence
and had not spoken deceitfully.(B)
10 Yet the Lord was pleased(C) to crush him severely.[b](D)
When[c] you make him a guilt offering,(E)
he will see his seed, he will prolong his days,
and by his hand, the Lord’s pleasure will be accomplished.(F)
11 After his anguish,
he will see light[d] and be satisfied.
By his knowledge,
my righteous(G) servant(H) will justify many,(I)
and he will carry their iniquities.
12 Therefore I will give him[e] the many as a portion,
and he will receive[f] the mighty as spoil,
because he willingly submitted to death,(J)
and was counted among the rebels;(K)
yet he bore the sin of many(L)
and interceded for the rebels.(M)
