Matthew 27
King James Version
27 When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:
2 And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
3 Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,
4 Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.
5 And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.
6 And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.
7 And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.
8 Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day.
9 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;
10 And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.
11 And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest.
12 And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.
13 Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee?
14 And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly.
15 Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would.
16 And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.
17 Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ?
18 For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.
19 When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.
20 But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
21 The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas.
22 Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.
23 And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.
24 When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.
25 Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
26 Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.
27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.
28 And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
29 And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!
30 And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head.
31 And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.
32 And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross.
33 And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,
34 They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.
35 And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.
36 And sitting down they watched him there;
37 And set up over his head his accusation written, This Is Jesus The King Of The Jews.
38 Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.
39 And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,
40 And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.
41 Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,
42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.
43 He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.
44 The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.
45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.
46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
47 Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.
48 And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.
49 The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.
50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
54 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
55 And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:
56 Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedees children.
57 When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple:
58 He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.
59 And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
60 And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.
61 And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.
62 Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,
63 Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.
64 Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first.
65 Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as ye can.
66 So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch.
Matthew 27
New King James Version
Jesus Handed Over to Pontius Pilate(A)
27 When morning came, (B)all the chief priests and elders of the people plotted against Jesus to put Him to death. 2 And when they had bound Him, they led Him away and (C)delivered Him to [a]Pontius Pilate the governor.
Judas Hangs Himself(D)
3 (E)Then Judas, His betrayer, seeing that He had been condemned, was remorseful and brought back the thirty (F)pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, 4 saying, “I have sinned by betraying innocent blood.”
And they said, “What is that to us? You see to it!”
5 Then he threw down the pieces of silver in the temple and (G)departed, and went and hanged himself.
6 But the chief priests took the silver pieces and said, “It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, because they are the price of blood.” 7 And they consulted together and bought with them the potter’s field, to bury strangers in. 8 Therefore that field has been called (H)the Field of Blood to this day.
9 Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying, (I)“And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the value of Him who was priced, whom they of the children of Israel priced, 10 and (J)gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord directed me.”
Jesus Faces Pilate(K)
11 Now Jesus stood before the governor. (L)And the governor asked Him, saying, “Are You the King of the Jews?”
Jesus said to him, (M)“It is as you say.” 12 And while He was being accused by the chief priests and elders, (N)He answered nothing.
13 Then Pilate said to Him, (O)“Do You not hear how many things they testify against You?” 14 But He answered him not one word, so that the governor marveled greatly.
Taking the Place of Barabbas(P)
15 (Q)Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to releasing to the multitude one prisoner whom they wished. 16 And at that time they had a notorious prisoner called [b]Barabbas. 17 Therefore, when they had gathered together, Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?” 18 For he knew that they had handed Him over because of (R)envy.
19 While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, “Have nothing to do with that just Man, for I have suffered many things today in a dream because of Him.”
20 (S)But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitudes that they should ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus. 21 The governor answered and said to them, “Which of the two do you want me to release to you?”
They said, (T)“Barabbas!”
22 Pilate said to them, “What then shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?”
They all said to him, “Let Him be crucified!”
23 Then the governor said, (U)“Why, what evil has He done?”
But they cried out all the more, saying, “Let Him be crucified!”
24 When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but rather that a [c]tumult was rising, he (V)took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, “I am innocent of the blood of this [d]just Person. You see to it.”
25 And all the people answered and said, (W)“His blood be on us and on our children.”
26 Then he released Barabbas to them; and when (X)he had [e]scourged Jesus, he delivered Him to be crucified.
The Soldiers Mock Jesus(Y)
27 (Z)Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the [f]Praetorium and gathered the whole [g]garrison around Him. 28 And they (AA)stripped Him and (AB)put a scarlet robe on Him. 29 (AC)When they had [h]twisted a crown of thorns, they put it on His head, and a reed in His right hand. And they bowed the knee before Him and mocked Him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” 30 Then (AD)they spat on Him, and took the reed and struck Him on the head. 31 And when they had mocked Him, they took the robe off Him, put His own clothes on Him, (AE)and led Him away to be crucified.
The King on a Cross(AF)
32 (AG)Now as they came out, (AH)they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. Him they compelled to bear His cross. 33 (AI)And when they had come to a place called Golgotha, that is to say, Place of a Skull, 34 (AJ)they gave Him [i]sour wine mingled with gall to drink. But when He had tasted it, He would not drink.
35 (AK)Then they crucified Him, and divided His garments, casting lots, [j]that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet:
(AL)“They divided My garments among them,
And for My clothing they cast lots.”
36 (AM)Sitting down, they kept watch over Him there. 37 And they (AN)put up over His head the accusation written against Him:
THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38 (AO)Then two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and another on the left.
39 And (AP)those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads 40 and saying, (AQ)“You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save Yourself! (AR)If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross.”
41 Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the [k]scribes and elders, said, 42 “He (AS)saved others; Himself He cannot save. [l]If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe [m]Him. 43 (AT)He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ”
44 (AU)Even the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing.
Jesus Dies on the Cross(AV)
45 (AW)Now from the sixth hour until the ninth hour there was darkness over all the land. 46 And about the ninth hour (AX)Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, (AY)“My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
47 Some of those who stood there, when they heard that, said, “This Man is calling for Elijah!” 48 Immediately one of them ran and took a sponge, (AZ)filled it with sour wine and put it on a reed, and offered it to Him to drink.
49 The rest said, “Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to save Him.”
50 And Jesus (BA)cried out again with a loud voice, and (BB)yielded up His spirit.
51 Then, behold, (BC)the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth quaked, and the rocks were split, 52 and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; 53 and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.
54 (BD)So when the centurion and those with him, who were guarding Jesus, saw the earthquake and the things that had happened, they feared greatly, saying, (BE)“Truly this was the Son of God!”
55 And many women (BF)who followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to Him, were there looking on from afar, 56 (BG)among whom were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and [n]Joses, and the mother of Zebedee’s sons.
Jesus Buried in Joseph’s Tomb(BH)
57 Now (BI)when evening had come, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who himself had also become a disciple of Jesus. 58 This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be given to him. 59 When Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, 60 and (BJ)laid it in his new tomb which he had hewn out of the rock; and he rolled a large stone against the door of the tomb, and departed. 61 And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting [o]opposite the tomb.
Pilate Sets a Guard
62 On the next day, which followed the Day of Preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees gathered together to Pilate, 63 saying, “Sir, we remember, while He was still alive, how that deceiver said, (BK)‘After three days I will rise.’ 64 Therefore command that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest His disciples come [p]by night and steal Him away, and say to the people, ‘He has risen from the dead.’ So the last deception will be worse than the first.”
65 Pilate said to them, “You have a guard; go your way, make it as secure as you know how.” 66 So they went and made the tomb secure, (BL)sealing the stone and setting the guard.

Ang Bagong Tipan: Filipino Standard Version
Iniharap si Jesus kay Pilato(A)
27 Kinaumagahan, ang lahat ng mga punong pari at ang matatandang pinuno ng bayan ay nagsanggunian kung paano maipapapatay si Jesus. 2 Siya'y ginapos nila, dinala sa labas, at iniharap sa gobernador na si Pilato.
Nagpakamatay si Judas(B)
3 Nang makita (C) ng nagkanulong si Judas na si Jesus ay nahatulan na, siya'y nagsisi at isinauli niya ang tatlumpung pirasong pilak sa mga punong pari at sa matatandang pinuno. 4 Wika niya, “Nagkasala ako sa pagkakanulo sa dugong walang sala.” Ngunit sinabi nila, “Ano iyon sa amin? Bahala ka sa sarili mo.” 5 At inihagis ni Judas ang mga piraso ng pilak sa loob ng templo at siya'y lumabas. Umalis siya at nagbigti. 6 Pinulot ng mga punong pari ang mga piraso ng pilak at sinabi nila, “Hindi nararapat na ilagay ang mga ito sa kabang-yaman, sapagkat dugo ang katumbas nito.” 7 Kaya't napagkasunduan nilang gamitin iyon upang bilhin ang bukid ng magpapalayok, na gagawing libingan ng mga dayuhan. 8 Dahil dito, ang bukid na iyon ay tinawag na Bukid ng Dugo hanggang sa araw na ito. 9 Kaya't (D) natupad ang sinabi sa pamamagitan ni Propeta Jeremias,[a] “At kinuha nila ang tatlumpung pirasong pilak, na inihalaga sa kanya ng ilang anak ng Israel, 10 at ang mga iyon ay ipinambayad nila sa bukid ng magpapalayok, gaya ng iniutos sa akin ng Panginoon.”
Si Jesus sa Harapan ni Pilato(E)
11 Samantala, tumayo si Jesus sa harap ng gobernador at tinanong siya nito, “Ikaw ba ang Hari ng mga Judio?” “Ikaw ang nagsasabi niyan,” sagot ni Jesus. 12 Subalit nang magparatang sa kanya ang mga punong pari at ang matatandang pinuno ay wala siyang sinabing anuman. 13 At sinabi ni Pilato sa kanya, “Hindi mo ba naririnig kung gaano karami ang ibinibintang nila sa iyo?” 14 Ngunit ni isa mang kataga ay hindi siya sumagot sa kanya, na lubhang ipinagtaka ng gobernador.
Hinatulang Mamatay si Jesus(F)
15 Nakaugalian na noon ng gobernador na sa tuwing kapistahan ng Paskuwa ay nagpapalaya siya para sa mga taong-bayan ng sinumang bilanggo na kanilang maibigan. 16 Nang panahong iyon ay mayroong isang bilanggo na kilabot sa kasamaan, na nagngangalang Jesus Barabas.[b] 17 Kaya't nang magkasama-sama ang mga tao ay sinabi ni Pilato sa kanila, “Sino ang ibig ninyong palayain ko para sa inyo? Si Barabas ba, o si Jesus na tinatawag na Cristo?” 18 Sinabi niya ito sapagkat nahalata niyang dahil sa inggit ay iniharap nila si Jesus sa kanya. 19 At habang nakaupo siya sa upuan ng paghuhukom, ipinasabi sa kanya ng kanyang asawa ang ganito, “Huwag mong gagawan ng anuman ang taong iyan na walang sala, sapagkat labis akong pinahirapan sa panaginip ko sa araw na ito dahil sa kanya.” 20 Ngunit inudyukan ng mga punong pari at ng matatandang pinuno ang mga taong-bayan na kanilang hilingin si Barabas at patayin naman si Jesus. 21 Muling sumagot ang gobernador at sinabi sa kanila, “Sino sa dalawa ang nais ninyong palayain ko sa inyo?” Sila'y sumagot, “Si Barabas!” 22 Sinabi sa kanila ni Pilato, “At ano naman ang gagawin ko rito kay Jesus, ang tinatawag na Cristo?” Lahat sila'y nagsabi, “Ipako siya sa krus!” 23 At sinabi niya, “Bakit, ano ba'ng ginawa niyang masama?” Ngunit lalo silang nagsisigaw, “Ipako siya sa krus!” 24 Kaya't (G) nang makita ni Pilato na wala na siyang magagawa, at sa halip ay mayroon nang namumuong isang malaking kaguluhan, kumuha siya ng tubig at hinugasan niya ang kanyang mga kamay sa harap ng madla, at kanyang sinabi, “Wala akong kinalaman sa pagdanak ng dugo ng taong ito.[c] Kayo ang may kagagawan nito.” 25 Sumagot ang buong bayan at nagsabi, “Hayaang panagutan namin at ng aming mga anak ang kanyang dugo.” 26 Pagkatapos ay pinalaya niya sa kanila si Barabas. Subalit si Jesus ay ipinahagupit niya at ipinaubaya upang ipako sa krus.
Tinuya ng mga Kawal si Jesus(H)
27 Dinala si Jesus ng mga kawal ng gobernador sa Pretorio at tinipon nila ang buong batalyon ng mga kawal sa harapan niya. 28 Siya'y kanilang hinubaran at isinuot sa kanya ang isang balabal na matingkad na pula. 29 Gumawa sila ng isang koronang tinik at ipinatong sa kanyang ulo. Ipinahawak nila sa kanang kamay niya ang isang tambo at sila'y lumuhod sa harapan niya at siya'y kanilang nilibak, sa pagsasabing, “Mabuhay ang Hari ng mga Judio!” 30 Siya'y kanilang dinuraan. Kinuha nila ang tambo at paulit-ulit na inihampas sa kanyang ulo. 31 Matapos siyang kutyain, hinubaran siya ng balabal at isinuot sa kanya ang kanyang mga damit. Pagkatapos, siya ay kanilang inilabas upang ipako sa krus.
Si Jesus ay Ipinako sa Krus(I)
32 Habang lumalabas sila sa lungsod, nakasalubong nila ang isang lalaking taga-Cirene, na nagngangalang Simon. Pinilit nila itong magpasan ng kanyang krus. 33 Dumating sila sa isang pook na tinatawag na Golgotha (na ang ibig sabihin ay “Ang Pook ng Bungo”). 34 Doon, siya ay kanilang binigyan (J) ng maiinom na alak na may halong apdo. Subalit nang kanyang matikman ay ayaw niyang inumin. 35 At (K) nang siya'y maipako nila sa krus, nagpalabunutan sila upang mapaghati-hatian ang kanyang mga damit. 36 Pagkatapos, umupo sila at nagbantay sa kanya roon. 37 Sa itaas ng kanyang ulo ay kanilang inilagay ang paratang sa kanya, na may ganitong nakasulat: “Ito si Jesus, ang Hari ng mga Judio.” 38 May dalawang tulisan na ipinakong kasama niya, isa sa kanan at isa sa kaliwa. 39 Ang mga nagdaraan (L) ay nangungutya sa kanya at pailing-iling 40 na (M) nagsasabi, “Ikaw na magwawasak sa templo, at sa ikatlong araw ay muling magtatayo nito, iligtas mo ang iyong sarili! Kung ikaw ang Anak ng Diyos, bumaba ka sa krus!” 41 Sa gayunding paraan ay kinutya siya ng mga punong pari, kasama ng mga tagapagturo ng Kautusan at ng matatandang pinuno. Wika nila, 42 “Iniligtas niya ang iba ngunit hindi niya mailigtas ang kanyang sarili. Siya raw ang Hari ng Israel. Bumaba siya ngayon sa krus, at maniniwala tayo sa kanya. 43 Nagtiwala (N) siya sa Diyos. Tingnan natin ngayon kung ililigtas siya ng Diyos, kung gusto niya, sapagkat sinabi niyang siya ang Anak ng Diyos.” 44 Kinutya rin siya ng mga tulisang ipinako sa krus na kasama niya.
Namatay si Jesus(O)
45 Mula sa katanghaliang-tapat[d] hanggang sa ikatlo ng hapon[e] ay nagdilim sa buong lupain. 46 At (P) nang malapit na ang ikatlo ng hapon, sumigaw si Jesus nang napakalakas, na sinasabi, “Eli, Eli, lama sabacthani?” na ang ibig sabihin ay “Diyos ko, Diyos ko, bakit mo ako pinabayaan?” 47 Nang marinig ito ng ilan sa mga nakatayo roon ay sinabi nila, “Tinatawag ng taong ito si Elias.” 48 Agad na tumakbo (Q) ang isa sa kanila, kumuha ng isang espongha at isinawsaw sa suka,[f] ikinabit sa isang tambo, at ibinigay sa kanya upang inumin. 49 Ngunit ang iba'y nagsabi, “Hayaan muna ninyo siya. Tingnan natin kung darating si Elias upang siya'y iligtas.” 50 Muling sumigaw si Jesus nang napakalakas at nalagot ang kanyang hininga. 51 At (R) biglang napunit sa dalawa ang tabing ng templo, mula itaas hanggang sa ibaba. Nayanig ang lupa, nabiyak ang mga bato. 52 Nabuksan ang mga libingan, at maraming katawan ng mga taong banal na namatay ang muling nabuhay. 53 Lumabas ang mga ito sa mga libingan at pagkatapos ng muling pagkabuhay ni Jesus, sila'y pumasok sa banal na lungsod at doon ay nakita ng maraming tao. 54 Nang makita ng senturyon at ng mga kasamahan niyang nagbabantay kay Jesus ang lindol at ang mga pangyayari, kinilabutan sila, at nagsabi, “Totoo ngang ito ang Anak ng Diyos.”[g] 55 At (S) maraming babaing naroroon din ang nakatanaw mula sa malayo. Sumunod sila kay Jesus mula pa sa Galilea upang maglingkod sa kanya. 56 Kabilang sa mga iyon ay si Maria Magdalena, si Maria na ina nina Santiago at Jose, at ang ina ng mga anak ni Zebedeo.
Inilibing si Jesus(T)
57 Nang magdadapit-hapon na ay dumating ang isang mayamang lalaking taga-Arimatea, na nagngangalang Jose, na naging alagad din ni Jesus. 58 Ang taong ito ay pumunta kay Pilato at hiningi ang bangkay ni Jesus. At ipinag-utos ni Pilato na iyon ay ibigay kay Jose. 59 Kinuha ni Jose ang bangkay at binalot sa isang malinis na telang lino, 60 at inilagay ito sa sarili niyang bagong libingan, na kanyang ipinaukit sa bato. Pagkatapos ay iginulong niya ang isang malaking bato sa pasukan ng libingan, at siya'y umalis. 61 Naroon at nakaupo si Maria Magdalena at ang isa pang Maria sa tapat ng libingan.
Naglagay ng mga Bantay sa Libingan
62 Nang sumunod na araw, pagkatapos ng araw ng Paghahanda, nagpulong sa harapan ni Pilato ang mga punong pari at ang mga Fariseo. 63 Kanilang sinabi, (U) “Ginoo, natatandaan naming sinabi ng bulaang iyon noong siya'y nabubuhay pa na siya raw ay muling mabubuhay pagkalipas ng tatlong araw. 64 Kaya't pabantayang mabuti ang libingan hanggang sa ikatlong araw; baka pumaroon ang kanyang mga alagad at nakawin siya, at ipagsabi sa mga tao na siya'y muling nabuhay mula sa mga patay. Kapag nagkagayon, magiging masahol pa ang huling pandaraya kaysa una.” 65 Sinabi ni Pilato sa kanila, “Mayroon kayong bantay;[h] pumunta kayo roon at tiyakin ninyong hindi iyon mabubuksan.” 66 Pumunta nga sila roon, at tiniyak na hindi mabubuksan ang libingan. Sinelyuhan nila ito at mahigpit na pinabantayan.
